A semiconductor light source apparatus can adjust a color tone of white light. The semiconductor light source apparatus can include a phosphor wheel, a motor rotating the phosphor wheel, a light source and a moving module. The phosphor wheel can include at least one phosphor layer configured to emit excited light. The phosphor wheel can vary a mixing ration of white light that is created by light emitted from the light source and the light excited by the at least one phosphor layer in accordance with a position of the phosphor wheel emitted by the light source. The moving module that is connected to the motor can adjust the position of light emitted from the light source. Thus, the disclosed subject matter can provide a semiconductor light source apparatus that can adjust a color tone of white light and a lighting unit using the light source apparatus, which can be used for a projector, lamp, etc.

An ultrasonograph capable of generating a transmission beam having a uniform width over a wide range in an ultrasonic wave propagation direction is provided. A weighted mean value of a plurality of transmission delay time values corresponding to focal lengths of transmission pulse waves set in the ultrasonic wave propagation direction is calculated for each element constituting a transmission aperture and used as the delay time for the element when waves are transmitted. As the weight used for obtaining the weighted mean value, a transmission effective aperture width according to each transmission focal length is selected, and a weight in the direction of the transmit aperture realizing the width is calculated and is used in a focal length direction.

A liquid crystal display apparatus includes a vertical alignment type liquid crystal cell including a first substrate formed with a first electrode, a second substrate formed with a second electrode, and a liquid crystal layer containing liquid crystal molecules given a pretilt angle. A pair of polarizer plates sandwiches the cell, and a driver device applies a voltage of a multiplex driving waveform across the first and second electrodes. In a display in-plane parallel to a surface of the first or second substrate, at least one of the first and second electrodes has a zigzag border alternately coupling a first border perpendicular to display in-plane components of directors of liquid crystal molecules in a middle area along a thickness direction of the liquid crystal layer in the absence of applied voltage and a second border extending along a direction crossing the first border.
