According to one embodiment, a pattern formation method is disclosed. The method includes applying an imprint material onto a workpiece film; and bringing a transfer surface having a first unevenness of a template into contact with the imprint material to form a second unevenness in the imprint material. The second unevenness reflects a configuration of the first unevenness. The method includes curing the imprint material; filling a mask material into a recess of the second unevenness of the cured imprint material; exposing a part of the workpiece film by using the filled mask material as a mask to pattern the imprint material; and patterning the workpiece film by using the patterned imprint material as a mask. A thickness of the imprint material between the workpiece film and a bottom face of the recess of the second unevenness is not less than 2.5 times a half pitch of the second unevenness.

In a method for amplifying the specific nucleic acid sequence, a highly specific amplification which has low possibility of non-specific hybridization can be carried out. Highly stable reagents, the activities of which do not decrease in case of supply and storage, are also provided. Thermostable enzymes are used as RNA dependent DNA polymerase, DNA dependent DNA polymerase, DNA dependent RNA polymerase and ribonuclease H, which are required for the amplification system based on replicated RNA. Especially, it is preferable that a thermostable enzyme derived from Thermus thermophilus which has RNA dependent DNA polymerase activity, DNA dependent DNA polymerase activity and ribonuclease H activity, and thermostable DNA dependent RNA polymerase are used together. By this method, inactivation of enzymes are prevented by using thermostable enzymes, and the amplification can be carried out without sequential addition of enzymes.
摘要:
A geomagnetic direction sensor has a plurality of magnetic cores for converging terrestrial magnetism arranged circumferentially with pre-set gaps, and magneto-resistive effect devices in the gaps so as to lie substantially at right angles to the direction of the magnetic field in the gaps. The geomagnetic direction sensor has at least a pair of magneto-resistive effect devices lying substantially at right angles to each other. The magnetic core is formed of a magnetic material having soft magnetic properties. The current is supplied to the excitation coils placed around the magnetic core for applying a bias magnetic field to the magneto-resistive effect devices. Another set of magneto-resistive effect devices are connected in series with the magneto-resistive effect devices arranged within the gap so as to be substantially parallel to the direction of the magnetic field.
