A deformable mirror includes a first base plate having a first reference surface, a transparent second base plate having a second reference surface opposed to the first reference surface, a flexible member disposed between the first base plate and the second base plate and having a reflective surface on a surface thereof, the flexible member being adapted to be fitted on the first reference surface or on the second reference surface, and a driver for fitting the flexible member on the first reference surface or on the second reference surface, wherein the flexible member is held between the first base plate and the second base plate, and the light rays to be reflected by the reflective surface are imparted with the first degree of spherical aberration or with the second degree of spherical aberration by fitting the flexible member on the first reference surface or on the second reference surface by the driver.

An ink-jet head is provided with a container having an ink-discharge opening in its wall section; a structural element that has peripheral edges at least both ends in one direction of which are secured to the wall faces inside the container, that divides the inside of the container in a fluid-separated state, and that is allowed to be distorted; and a voltage-applying unit for applying a voltage to the structural element. The structural element is constituted of a piezoelectric material, and the shape of the structural element is changed in response to the voltage applied by the voltage-applying unit so that ink is allowed to discharge from the ink-discharge opening. Therefore, the above-mentioned arrangement makes it possible to provide a greater ink-discharging force and ink-discharging speed, while maintaining a small size of the head. Moreover, it is possible to provide an ink-jet head having a good discharging efficiency with long service life.

Spacer particles are supplied and allocated onto a particle distributing jig plate having numerous spacer particle positioning depressed portions for receiving the spacer particles in a one-to-one correspondence. Then the particle distributing jig plate is made to face, and be registered with, the liquid crystal display element substrate, so that the spacer particles allocated to the depressed portions are transferred to the substrate of a liquid crystal display element.

An ink jet printer performs a control of a supply of electric power for each heating element based on a temperature dependency of a resistance value by monitoring its resistance value while ink is being discharged. Accordingly, the ink jet printer permits a damage of the heating element and a discharge inferior caused by a difference in characteristics in heating elements, ambient temperature, etc., to be suppressed. Additionally, as the temperature of the heating element is not detected directly, the ink jet printer permits high speed control of the electric value, thereby permitting high speed printing.

A casing is attached to a nozzle plate so that a hollow cavity is formed between the nozzle plate having a nozzle orifice and the casing. Three buckling structure bodies are arranged in the hollow cavity. Each of the buckling structure bodies has both ends fixedly attached to the casing via an attach member so that the center portion can be displaced. A power source is provided which applies a compressive stress to the interior of the buckling structure bodies to buckle the buckling structure bodies by the compressive stress and to displace the center portion. As a result, the ink jet head is capable of implementing a large discharge force while maintaining a compact size.

Methods for manufacturing an optical disk having spiral or concentric grooves and land portions between the grooves are disclosed. In one aspect, the methods include projection of light spots onto a photosensitive material so that areas of the photosensitive material exposed to a first light spot form the pattern of spiral or concentric grooves and that areas of said photosensitive material which correspond to said land portions and are exposed to a second light spot form a predetermined pit pattern.

A probe is displaced relative to a recording medium according to a drive voltage. A chip is provided at an end of the probe. The chip serves to form pits and projections on a surface of the recording medium according to a recording voltage (Vp2) and serves to output a current signal responsive to the pits and projections with a reproducing voltage (Vp1) applied. A voltage generator generates the recording voltage and the reproducing voltage based on address and data signals. A sample-hold unit samples at a specified frequency a current signal obtained from a no-recording area of the recording medium by the chip and produces an output voltage signal. A reproducing unit demodulates and reproduces increment and decrement of the current signal obtained from a recording area of the recording medium by the chip. A control unit controls recording and reproduction. The control unit outputs such a drive voltage that the interval between the chip and the recording medium is maintained constant by feedback control based on the voltage signal derived from the sample-hold unit. The control unit controls the recording so that no-recording areas and recording areas are arranged alternately.
