A manufacturing apparatus for manufacturing an oriented film of a liquid crystal device holding a liquid crystal between a pair of substrates facing each other, includes: a film formation chamber; an evaporation section evaporating an oriented film material on the substrate by a physical vapor deposition, and forming the oriented film in the film formation chamber; a shielding plate formed between the evaporation section and the substrate, having an elongated opening for selectively evaporating the oriented film material, and covering an area of the substrate on which the oriented film is not formed; and a cleaning section providing a cleaning medium for removing the oriented film material adhered on the shielding plate, toward the opening of the shielding plate, and on the side of the shielding plate that faces the evaporation section.
Abstract:
An antenna coil formed on a substrate surface of an insulating substrate has conductor lines forming four sides of a basic loop shape. Furthermore, the antenna coil has corner lines at a corner portion of the loop. For example, by forming trimming lines on the inner side of one of the corner lines, it becomes possible to adjust the resonant frequency in various ways without considerably disturbing the shape of distribution of magnetic flux density generated by the antenna coil as a whole.

A method of manufacturing an electro-optical device, the electro-optical device having a pair of substrates with an electro-optical material interposed therebetween, the method includes forming electrodes on a substrate surface of at least one substrate of the pair of substrates opposite to the electro-optical material so as to apply a predetermined voltage to the electro-optical material for every pixel; forming a base film of an alignment film made of an inorganic material on the electrodes by performing a first PVD method while setting an angle which a scattering direction of the inorganic material forms with respect to the substrate surface to one value or a plurality of values such that the electrode does not generate a blocked portion at one location with respect to the scattering direction; and forming the alignment film made of the inorganic material on the base film by fixing the angle to a predetermined value different from the value set by the first PVD method or performing a second PVD method with a film forming condition different from the first PVD method.

Abstract:
Provided is a nonreciprocal circuit element which has increased lengths of central conductors to be compatible with miniaturization while exhibiting superior performance. In the nonreciprocal circuit element, a first yoke has a rectangular upper plate, a pair of side plates bent downward from sides of the upper plate facing each other, and notch parts formed at the central portion of the pair of side plates. Ends of a magnet are placed within the notch parts. Thus, the magnet can be enlarged and a ferrite member provided corresponding thereto can also be enlarged. Accordingly, the lengths of conductors of central conductors mounted on the ferrite member are increased, thereby achieving high performance while not adversely affecting miniaturization.
Abstract:
A light-shielding film formed above a substrate has a multilayered thin film structure, in which a thin film not containing nitrogen and a thin film containing nitrogen are alternately arranged. Since the thin film containing nitrogen is formed in the light-shielding film, the stress caused by thermal distortion at the time of an annealing treatment is absorbed by the thin film containing nitrogen. Thus, cracks in an insulating film or a semiconductor film which extend from the light-shielding film can be prevented from occurring.
Abstract:
An irreversible circuit device with small insertion loss and excellent isolation is to be provided. An irreversible circuit device according to the invention has a flat plate shaped ferrite member and first, second and third central conductors placed on the ferrite member. In the central conductors, second conductor parts are placed on the ferrite member as input or output first conductor parts are placed on notch parts of the ferrite member. Therefore, when a magnetic flux passes through V-shaped extension parts as a magnetic path, the current generation is reduced and the energy transmission is increased in the first conductor part placed therebetween. Consequently, the insertion loss is reduced, and the isolation becomes excellent.
Abstract:
A planar magnetic core is disposed in a DC magnetic field, and the top surface thereof is perpendicular to the direction of the DC magnetic field. Three central conductors are placed on the top surface of the magnetic core so that they overlap with each other at regular intervals substantially at the center of the top surface of the magnetic core. One end of each of the central conductors is used as an input/output terminal, and the other ends thereof are used as ground terminals. The inductance per unit length of the central conductor from the central portion to the ground terminal is set to be smaller than that from the central portion to the input/output terminal.
