A medical instrument including a distortion detection probe disposed in an insertion portion to be inserted into the interior of an examinee provided with a plurality of FBG sensor sections that detect distortion of the insertion portion, a coordinate calculation section that calculates first three-dimensional coordinates of the respective FBG sensor sections according to a first three-dimensional coordinate system whose origin is a predetermined position based on the detection results of the FBG sensor sections, a coordinate system setting section that sets a second three-dimensional coordinate system based on the first three-dimensional coordinates of the respective FBG sensor sections, a coordinate transformation section that transforms the first three-dimensional coordinates of the respective FBG sensor sections into second three-dimensional coordinates according to the second three-dimensional coordinate system set by the coordinate system setting section and a shape display section that displays the shape of the insertion portion based on the second three-dimensional coordinates transformed by the coordinate transformation section.
摘要:
A crystalline silicon thin film is formed by irradiating a silicon thin film with a laser beam. The laser beam is a continuous wave laser beam. An intensity distribution of the laser beam in a first region about a center of the intensity distribution is symmetric on an anterior side and a posterior side of the center. The intensity distribution in a second region about the center is asymmetric on the anterior side and the posterior side. The first region is from the maximum intensity of the laser beam at the center to an intensity half of the maximum intensity. The second region is at most equal to the half of the maximum intensity of the laser beam. In the second region, an integral intensity value on the posterior side is larger than on the anterior side.

A method of crystallizing a silicon thin film, which enables uniforming the size of a crystalline grain of the silicon thin film, includes: a second process of stacking, on a substrate, a first gate electrode having a first reflectivity; a third process of stacking a second gate electrode on the first gate electrode, the second gate electrode having a second reflectivity lower than the first reflectivity and including a top face having an area smaller than an area of the top face of the first gate electrode; a fourth process of stacking a gate insulation film to cover a first region and a second region; a fifth process of stacking a noncrystalline silicon thin film on the stacked gate insulation film; and a sixth process of crystallizing the noncrystalline silicon thin film by irradiating the noncrystalline silicon thin film from above with a laser beam.

To provide a method of manufacturing a crystalline semiconductor film having a crystal structure with favorable in-plane uniformity. The method includes: irradiating an amorphous semiconductor film with a continuous-wave laser beam to increase a temperature of the amorphous semiconductor film to a range of 600° C. to 1100° C., the continuous-wave laser beam having a light intensity distribution continuously convex upward on each of major and minor axes; crystallizing the amorphous semiconductor film at the temperature increased to the range of 600° C. to 1100° C.; and increasing a crystal grain size of the crystallized amorphous semiconductor film, as a result of an increase in an in-plane temperature of the crystallized amorphous film to a range of 1100° C. to 1414° C. by latent heat released in the crystallizing of the amorphous semiconductor film.
