An angular velocity sensor includes first and second vibrators having a movable portion with driving and detecting purpose movable electrodes and a fixed portion with first and second side driving and detecting purpose fixed electrodes. The driving voltages applied to the first side driving purpose fixed electrode in the first vibrator is a first driving voltage including direct and alternating voltages. The driving voltage applied to the second side driving purpose fixed electrode in the first vibrator is a second driving voltage including direct and alternating voltages. At least one of the direct voltages, one of the alternating voltages, or one of duty ratios of the first and second driving voltages is controlled so that the first vibrator vibrates opposite to the second vibrator.

A semiconductor device includes gaps formed in a semiconductor substrate to provide an inner portion movable in x and y directions. Drive electrodes vibrate the inner portion in the x direction, and detection electrodes detect movement in the y direction generated when an angular velocity is applied thereto. Monitor electrodes generate monitor signals for monitoring movement of the inner portion in the x direction. Shield wires are provided between the drive and detection electrodes and the monitor electrodes to suppress capacitive coupling. Dummy electrodes adjacent to the output electrodes and capacitively coupled to the drive electrodes generate a dummy signal. Dummy signal wires are respectively connected to the dummy electrodes and to the circuit substrate. The dummy signal includes an induced component of a periodical signal and is supplied to the circuit substrate to cancel another induced component of the periodical signal in the drive and monitor signals.

A recombinant antibody in which at least the constant regions in the heavy chain and the light chain have been converted into human-origin regions and which inhibits the binding of an integrin recognizing the RGD sequence to osteopontin or its fragment and inhibits the binding of an integrin recognizing the SVVYGLR sequence or a sequence corresponding thereto to osteopontin or its fragment. This antibody is useful as a remedy for autoimmune diseases and a remedy for rheumatism or rheumatoid arthritis. Thus, a method of treating autoimmune diseases, rheumatism or rheumatoid arthritis is provided. This osteopontin antibody is useful in a diagnostic for rheumatism and a method of diagnosing rheumatism too.

A vibration-type angular velocity sensor realizing a suitably vibrating state of the vibrators by canceling the displacement of the vibrators caused by the gravity. The angular velocity sensor comprises base portions, vibrators coupled to the base portions, exciting means for driving and vibrating the vibrators in the x-direction, and detection means which, when an angular velocity is applied while the vibrators are being driven and vibrated, detects the angular velocity based on the vibrations of the vibrators in the y-direction at right angles with the x-direction, the angular velocity sensor further comprising position adjusting means for so adjusting the positions of the vibrators as to cancel the amount of displacement by which the vibrators are displaced by the gravity in the direction of the gravity.

When a converter 14 is rotated via a rotation mechanism 17, the arrangement inclination angle of two primary radiators 15a and 15b can be adjusted in the range of 0 to 20 deg. with respect to an axis which is in parallel with the ground. Also the reception polarization angle due to probes of the primary radiators 15a and 15b can be adjusted in the range of 0 to 20 deg. while maintaining a preset difference in polarization angle among the satellites. Therefore, the arrangement inclination angle of the primary radiators 15a and 15b for respectively receiving signals from the two satellites, and the reception polarization angle in the primary radiators 15a and 15b can be simultaneously easily adjusted by rotating the converter 14 via the rotation mechanism 17.
摘要:
Novel humanized immunoglobulins and active fragments thereof which are specifically reactive to Fas ligand are provided, and a site on Fas ligand which is important to inhibit apoptosis induced by the Fas-Fas ligand interaction against Fas-expressing cells is demonstrated. The novel humanized immunoglobulins and active fragments thereof which are specifically reactive to Fas ligand are prepared from hybridomas which produce monoclonal antibodies specifically reactive to Fas ligand, via recombinant DNA techniques. The humanized immunoglobulins can inhibit the physiological reactions between Fas ligand and Fas such as apoptosis. Further, identification of the site which is on Fas ligand and responsible for apoptosis induction allows creation of recombinant proteins or peptides which are specifically reactive to the amino acids within the site so as to inhibit apoptosis, and to find new therapeutic or diagnostic agents.
摘要:
A semiconductor dynamic quantity sensor, for example, an acceleration sensor is formed on a SOI substrate having an activation layer and a supporting layer with an oxide film interposed therebetween. A structure for the sensor is formed in the activation layer. An opening is formed in the supporting layer and the oxide film to expose the structure. In this sensor, stress layer is formed in the activation layer at a side contacting the oxide film. The stress layer is removed at a region facing the opening to prevent the structure from cambering.

A semiconductor angular velocity sensor has a frame-shaped base portion, a detection oscillator connected to the base portion through a detection beam portion, and a drive oscillator connected to the detection oscillator through a drive beam portion. Each of the beam portions has a pair of beams each generally having a U shape and connected to each other through a bridge portion. Accordingly, the beam portions can have large rotational rigidity not to prevent oscillations of the oscillators.

An ultrasonic sensor device includes a substrate, a piezoelectric vibrator, and a Q-factor adjuster. The piezoelectric vibrator includes a pair of detection electrodes that face each other in a thickness direction of the substrate and a piezoelectric body interposed between the electrodes. The piezoelectric vibrator provides a membrane structure which is formed on a surface of the substrate and has rigidity lower than that of a remaining portion of the substrate. An ultrasonic wave is transmitted by the piezoelectric vibrator, and its reflected wave is received by the same piezoelectric vibrator. The Q-factor adjuster adjusts a Q-factor of the piezoelectric vibrator so that the Q-factor can be larger during a transmission period where the piezoelectric vibrator transmits the ultrasonic wave than during a reception period where the piezoelectric vibrator receives the ultrasonic wave.
