A cast mold and process for casting a substrate for an information recording medium has an uneven preformat pattern formed on the mold surface. The uneven preformat features a pattern corresponding to tracking grooves and information pits, each information pit portion has a size with a length b in the direction parallel to the pattern of the tracking groove of 2 to 15 .mu.m and a width a in the direction perpendicular thereto of 1 to 6 .mu.m and a height c of 300 to 3500 .ANG.. The pit pattern has a pitch which is 1.8-fold or more of pit length b.

A production process of a light amount adjustment member, by which a light amount adjustment member that can sufficiently satisfy optical properties can be economically produced at low production cost and high yield by a simple operation is provided. In addition, a wide variety of light amount adjustment devices and photographing apparatus equipped with a light amount adjustment member are cheaply provided while achieving satisfactory optical properties. The production process of the light amount adjustment member comprises the step of applying a coloring liquid containing a coloring material to a transparent base material using a liquid jet recording process to form a light amount adjustment region having a particular optical density.

An object of the present invention is to provide an organic blue-light-emitting device having high emission efficiency and a long continuous driving lifetime. The organic light-emitting device include a layer containing a first compound having a fluoranthene skeleton and a second compound having a pyrene skeleton, the second compound having an energy gap larger than that of the first compound, wherein EL1 representing the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbit (LUMO) of the first compound and EL2 representing the energy of the LUMO of the second compound satisfy a relationship of EL2−EL1≧0.15 eV.
摘要:
In an image area printed by a nozzle group including a defective nozzle, pixels printed by the defective nozzle and part of pixels located in the vicinity of the same are printed by another nozzle group. As a result, since printing is performed not only at the pixels printed by the defective nozzle but also at the pixels in the neighborhood thereof simultaneously by separate nozzles, irregularities of printing attributable to interpolation are distributed even when there is a relative misalignment between the nozzle groups. It is therefore possible to obtain a preferable image without any increase in output time even when a printing head including a defective nozzle is used.

A secondary color is used for printing an image with a printer so as to reduce the granularity of the printed image, particularly the light image area. Data of magenta and cyan color components of image data is subjected to under-removal processing to generate blue ink image data as the mentioned secondary color. A blue ink dot is printed in accordance with the blue ink data obtained by the under removal processing to replace the magenta and cyan data. As a result, it is possible to reduce the granularity that would otherwise be caused by localized distributions of magenta and cyan dots.
摘要:
A printing apparatus which uses a printing medium, which can retain a large amount of coloring material near its surface and can cause ink solvent to permeate rapidly, and can perform printing in a printing mode that is suitable for the above-mentioned printing medium, is provided. Furthermore, a user friendly printing apparatus is realized. More specifically, the printing mode for the above-mentioned printing medium is a mode that uses less ink ejection per one pixel. Even in this case, high speed printing based on printing of sufficient density and high ink absorption become possible. Furthermore, even in the case printing is made on ordinary paper, a lesser ink ejection amount in the same printing mode is performed, but since this printing mode uses processing liquid that makes the ink insoluble, in a similar way, printing of sufficient density and high speed printing becomes possible.
摘要:
An ink jet printing method and apparatus using a color ink and a print performance improving ink which minimizes an image quality degradation due to blank lines formed by failed or faulty nozzles. This system enables the use of a print head even with failed or faulty nozzles by minimizing the image quality degradation and extends the life of the print head before replacement. The print performance improving ink is not ejected and landed near a blank line, thus allowing the color ink dots near the blank line to spread and thereby making the blank line undistinguishable.
摘要:
A recording apparatus includes a recording head for performing recording on recording paper, the recording head having three or more types of inks of different densities but of the same color. A combination of the inks used to record a pixel of a grayscale image, which is to be recorded on the recording paper, is decided based upon the pixel by a data distribution unit which refers to ink density data and combination data. Recording by the recording head is controlled, based upon the combination of inks decided, by a unit which controls the recording head and paper feed.
摘要:
An optical recording medium includes in sequence a transparent substrate, a light-reflecting layer, a transparent intermediate layer and a light-absorbing layer. The light-reflecting layer, the transparent intermediate layer and the light-absorbing layer in combination constitute a multi-layer optical element showing a high reflectance with respect to a reproducing light beam having a wavelength .lambda..sub.r. The resultant high reflectance state in the non-recorded region provides a high contrast in comparison with a record pit when the high reflectance multi-layer optical element is destroyed, and also provides the record with an improved resistance to degradation due to irradiation with the reproducing light beam.

A roll stamper has a roll substrate and a stamper fixed thereto and having a convexity and concavity preformat pattern. The stamper has an auxiliary layer, including a material different from that of the stamper and a back surface on which the convexity and concavity preformat pattern is formed. The roll substrate has a low-melting layer on its surface and the auxiliary layer is in contact with the low-melting layer so that the stamper is fixed to the roll substrate.
