摘要:
When a stage moves, the position of the stage is detected by an interferometer, and a control unit controls the position of the stage while monitoring the output of the interferometer. Thus, the control unit effects positioning of the stage. In addition, the control unit calculates the square root of an arithmetic mean of the square of an error between target and present positions of the stage on the basis of the output of the interferometer, and estimates an amount of vibration of the stage on the basis of the result of the calculation, thereby enabling vibration characteristics to be quantitatively evaluated to a certain extent when the damping of vibration is rapid immediately after positioning, or when the damping is gentle or almost zero.

A frequency converter includes: a plurality of mixers each including a magnetoresistance effect device including a fixed magnetic layer, a free magnetic layer, and a nonmagnetic spacer layer sandwiched between the fixed magnetic layer and the free magnetic layer, when receiving a first high-frequency signal and a local second high-frequency signal, the magnetoresistance effect device multiplying the first high-frequency signal and the local second high-frequency signal by a magnetoresistance effect to generate a multiplication signal, and a magnetic field applying unit that applies a magnetic field to the free magnetic layer. A plurality of multiplication signals generated when the first high-frequency signal and the local second high-frequency signals that differ from one mixer to another are input to the mixers, are added together and are output.

In order to provide a mixer capable of extracting a high multiplication signal and which has a reception band-pass filter function, a magnetoresistance effect element is provided that includes a pinned magnetization layer, a free magnetization layer, and a non-magnetic spacer layer disposed between the pinned magnetization layer and the free magnetization layer. This allows for a frequency converter which implements a desired band-pass filter by controlling a magnetic field applied by a magnetic-field applying unit to be provided.

A disclosed information processing apparatus includes an information processing unit configured to operate as a daemon process; an information displaying unit configured to operate as a process different from the daemon process and display a screen relevant to the information processing unit; a first ending unit configured to end the information displaying unit due to a first factor; and a second ending unit configured to end the information displaying unit due to a second factor different from the first factor. The information displaying unit ends the information processing unit in the event of receiving a request to end from the first ending unit and the information displaying unit does not end the information processing unit in the event of receiving a request to end from the second ending unit.

A fit-holding groove is formed by notching the outer periphery of a door element to be fitted to close a container body. A sealing element interposed between the container body and door element is composed of an endless portion to be fitted into the fit-holding groove, a protruding part projected from the peripheral corner of the endless portion, obliquely and outwardly with respect to the open front of the container body, forming a substantially acute angle between itself and the contact surface of the open front of the container body and a pair of fitting ribs projectively formed on the obverse surface of the endless portion so as to be fitted in contact with the compartmentalized inner wall of the fit-holding portion.
摘要:
A rotary encoder for determining the rotation of an object to be measured includes a shaft that is coupled to the rotation of the object to be measured, as well as at least one bearing in which the shaft is rotationally mounted. The rotary encoder also has a rotary-transducer base member having a bearing fixation region at which the bearing is fixed in position, at least one depression area being formed continuously with a defined depth on the rotary-transducer base member along the periphery of the bearing fixation region such that it surrounds at least half the periphery of the bearing fixation region.

A benzenesulfonate salt of (2S,4S)-2-cyano-4-fluoro-1-[(2-hydroxy-1,1-dimethyl)ethylamino]acetylpyrrolidine that has an excellent DPPIV inhibition activity as well as physical properties (e.g., stability) required for pharmaceutical preparations. The present invention allows easy obtaining of the compound in high-purity uniform crystal form with excellent solid-state stability.
摘要:
For improving the reliability of a semiconductor device having a stacked structure of a polycrystalline silicon film and a tungsten silicide film, the device is manufactured by forming a polycrystalline silicon film, a tungsten silicide film and an insulating film successively over a gate insulating film disposed over the main surface of a semiconductor substrate, and patterning them to form a gate electrode having a stacked structure consisting of the polycrystalline silicon film and tungsten silicide film. The polycrystalline silicon film has two regions, one region formed by an impurity-doped polycrystalline silicon and the other one formed by non-doped polycrystalline silicon. The tungsten silicide film is deposited so that the resistivity of it upon film formation would exceed 1000 μΩcm.
