Abstract:
An additive containing an ion as a luminescence center is added to alkali halide powder as a base material. Mechanical energy for applying an impact force, a shearing force, a shear stress, or a friction force is applied so as to grind or mix the alkali halide powder and the additive. The ion as the luminescence center is doped into the alkali halide as the base material so as to obtain alkali halide-based scintillator powder. With this process, the alkali halide-based scintillator powder can be manufactured at a room temperature in the atmospheric air without any complicated condition control or any process at a high temperature under high vacuum and a large-sized scintillator sheet can be produced.
Abstract:
A wearable instrument is provided that measures biological information over an extended period of time by enabling an electrode to be readily pressed to an axilla of an animal. The wearable instrument includes: electrodes to be placed under the left and right axillae of a dog to produce an electrocardiogram; pull-up straps to be placed in direct contact with the axilla to press the electrodes onto the axilla; and a cinch strap placed across the anterior chest of the dog to draw the left and right sections of the pull-up strap together.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an organometallic complex having a high quantum efficiency even in a polymer thin film as a emitting material for organic electroluminescent (EL) element. The present invention relates to an organoiridium complex for an organic electroluminescent element represented by the following Formula; wherein a C—N ligand including two atomic groups (A1, A2), and a β-diketone ligand in line symmetry having two tert-butyl-substituted phenyl groups are coordinated with an iridium atom. The organoiridium complex of the present invention has a high quantum efficiency even in a polymer thin film with respect to green to yellow electroluminescence. (In the aforementioned Formula, R1, R2, and R3 are each a tert-butyl group or a hydrogen atom, and have at least one tert-butyl group; they may bond each other to thereby form a saturated hydrocarbon ring, when having two tert-butyl groups; A1, A2 are each an unsaturated hydrocarbon ring, at least one is a single ring, and at least one is a heterocyclic ring.)
Abstract:
An assembling apparatus assembles beads different in particle size from each other. The assembling apparatus includes a substrate and a photothermal light source. The substrate is constructed to be able to hold a sample in which the beads are dispersed. The photothermal light source irradiates the substrate or the sample with laser beams to thereby produce a temperature difference in the sample.
Abstract:
There is provided a method of well filling copper in a conductivity-rendered non-through hole having an aspect ratio (depth/hole diameter) of 5 or more on a substrate in a short period of time, and the method comprises using an acidic copper plating bath comprising a water-soluble copper salt, sulfuric acid, chlorine ion, a brightener and a copolymer of diallylamines and sulfur dioxide and filling copper in the non-through hole by periodic current reversal copper plating.
Abstract:
A detection device detects an analyte that may be contained in a specimen. The detection device includes a plurality of gold nanoparticles, an optical trapping light source, an illumination light source, an objective lens, an image pick-up device, and a computation unit. The plurality of gold nanoparticles are each modified with a probe DNA allowing the analyte to specifically adhere thereto. The optical trapping light source emits polarized light for assembling the plurality of gold nanoparticles together. The objective lens focuses and introduces the polarized light into a liquid containing a specimen and the plurality of gold nanoparticles. The image pick-up device receives light from the liquid. The computation unit detects an analyte based on a signal received from the image pick-up device.
