A multiprobe device is provided for a scanning probe instrument and has a plurality of individually-selectable probe members for conducting scanning probe operations. The multiprobe has a plurality of cantilever probes supported by a support member. Each of the cantilevers is individually-selectable for use in conducting scanning probe operations, and each has a different resonance frequency from the others. In a preferred embodiment, portions of the respective cantilevers that are brought into contact with a sample to conduct scanning probe operations are arranged in a substantially linear configuration. A given one of the cantilevers is selected by vibrating the multiprobe at the resonance frequency of the given cantilever.

A scanning probe apparatus and a self-exciting cantilever probe therefor are provided for measuring a characteristic of a sample by scanning a lever of the probe across the sample surface. The probe has a deflectable lever extending from a base and formed integrally therewith, and a resistive body provided on the lever to excite the lever in response to a periodic bias signal applied to the resistive body. In addition, the resistive body has a resistance value that varies in response to deflection of the lever so that the resistance of the resistive body may be monitored to detect deflection of the lever.

Processing along one circular path is performed by irradiating a laser beam to a ceramic green sheet attached on an outer peripheral surface of a rotating drum, and the processing path is changed by moving at least one of the rotating drum and a beam irradiated position through a predetermined distance in the direction of drum centerline each time the processing on one circular path is completed. If the laser beam is intermittently irradiated to the ceramic green sheet, a matrix of through holes or concave portions can be easily formed in the ceramic green sheet.

An additive for inkjet printing, comprising a stabilized ascorbic acid derivative. Also disclosed are a recording solution, a method for preventing discoloration and fading of an image, and a recording sheet, each using the additive. The color change of an image can be prevented by incorporating the stabilized ascorbic acid derivative into an inkjet-printed image.

The invention provides a polishing simulation in which calculation is proceeded while polishing rate parameter is successively updated as an offset shape of a substrate varies as polishing proceeds. When an uneven surface of a substrate is to be leveled by polishing, a deformation amount of a polishing cloth is determined on the assumption that a deformed shape of the polishing cloth by a convex of the substrate is a truncated cone, and a distribution of a polishing force is determined based on the deformation amount of the polishing cloth. Then, a distribution of a polishing amount of the substrate after a fixed interval of time is determined from the distribution of the polishing pressure, and a distribution of a height of the substrate is determined from the distribution of the polishing amount after the fixed interval of time. Finally, an expression for determination of an offset of the substrate is determined from the distribution of the height of the substrate.

In a light waveguide circuit including a plurality of waveguides having different length, a material (10) having a temperature coefficient of a refractive index including a symbol different from that of a temperature coefficient of an effective refractive index of the waveguide (4) is charged into a groove (12) formed by removing the upper clad and the core from the waveguide (4), or a groove (12) formed by removing the upper clad, the core and the lower clad from the waveguide (4). A difference in length of the removed portions between adjacent waveguides is proportional to a difference in length of the waveguides which were not removed and remained.

A method of producing a circular island even if pollution by dirt or dust affects a mask pattern. A circular island is formed by etching silicon oxide film formed on a silicon substrate using a resist mask, and an acute angle portion of unevenness of the pattern outline comprising silicon oxide film is removed so as to obtain a smooth and substantially circular pattern by additional etching using buffered hydrofluoric acid solution (BHF) after removing the resist mask.

An original image comprises a printed region on which a predetermined printed matter is realized and a background region on which no printed matter is realized. The shape of a peripheral zone in the original image comprises the shape of the background region, which shape exists particularly at the peripheral region of said original image. It is determined whether or not the original image comprises the special document by detecting the peripheral zone. Further, the original image has an outer-frame region, having a predetermined shape at the peripheral region of the original image. The determination is carried out using a result of measuring the width of the outer-frame region. Further, the width of the outer-frame region comprises a width along a direction substantially perpendicular to a direction extending along the outline of the original image.
摘要:
A first substrate having a first electromagnetic noise sensor on its surface perpendicularly intersects with a second substrate having a second electromagnetic noise sensor on its surface, making up an integral structure. A first induced voltage value output from the first electromagnetic sensor at a position thereof directly before driving by a driving means is recorded, and a second induced voltage value output from the second electromagnetic noise sensor at a position thereof at a time of movement of the integral structure for only a predetermined distance by a driving means is recorded. Further, the first and second electromagnetic noise sensors are parallel connected at the position of movement, and a third induced voltage value output from a parallel connected electromagnetic noise sensor is also recorded. Based on the recorded first and second voltage values, an electromagnetic noise level in a vicinity of the integral substrate is determined. The first and second induced voltage values are compared, and based on comparison of the first and second induced voltage values, and whether a larger voltage value from among the first and second voltage values is larger than the third voltage value, a direction of an electromagnetic noise generating source in the vicinity of the integral substrate is computationally determined. The determined electromagnetic noise level and direction of the electromagnetic noise generating source are displayed at a position on a display device corresponding with a position of the first electromagnetic noise sensor.
