Abstract:
A mask includes a base plate having aperture parts, and chips having aperture patterns and positioned in the aperture parts of the base plate. The mask is arranged on a bottom surface of a bed plate with a substrate on which a film is to be formed sandwiched therebetween. Magnets are arranged on the bed plate, and plugs which are attracted to the magnets are arranged in the base plate.
Abstract:
A surface treatment apparatus 1 is constructed to hold a substrate 10 when surface treatment is carried out to a back surface 101 of the substrate 10. The surface treatment apparatus 1 includes at least one enclosed space each defined by a concave portion 32 and a front surface 102 of the substrate 10; and an O-ring 2 (contact portion) adapted to hermetically contact with the front surface 102 of the substrate 10 to produce negative pressure in cooperation with the O-ring 2 and the front surface 102 of the substrate 10. The surface treatment apparatus 1 is constructed so that the substrate 10 is attracted onto the surface treatment apparatus 1 using a difference between the negative pressure and atmospheric pressure by decompressing the enclosed space in a decompression chamber and then bringing out the substrate 10 from the inside of the decompression chamber to environment under atmospheric pressure.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a substrate conjugate is provided including a step of joining a first substrate including a first functional device to a second substrate including a second functional device and a step of providing a protective layer on at least one of a face of the first substrate on which the first functional device is placed; and a face of the second substrate on which the second functional device is placed.
Abstract:
In an ink jet head for performing charging and discharging between diaphragms and electrodes to transform the diaphragms to thereby eject ink drops from nozzle holes, a control circuit (60) of this ink jet head is constituted by an integrated circuit which is provided on a nozzle plate (300), a diaphragm substrate (200) or an electrode glass substrate (100) of an ink jet head chip (7).
Abstract:
A spatial light modulator is constructed from a conductive silicon mirror substrate and a glass electrode substrate including sodium, anode-bonded together. The silicon mirror substrate has micromirrors arranged in a matrix, torsion bars coupling these micromirrors in the x-direction, and a frame coupled to both ends of the torsion bars. A glass electrode substrate has a central depression, a rim around the periphery thereof, pillars projecting from within the depression, and electrodes and wiring driving micromirrors formed within the depression in an inclining manner. Both ends of the torsion bars are bonded to the rim of the frame portion, and intermediate portions of the torsion bars are bonded to the pillars. Both ends of the torsion bars are cut away from the frame portion during dicing.

Abstract:
An inkjet printer provided with an ink jet print head having a nozzle, an ink channel that is connected to the nozzle, and an electrostatic actuator that is composed of a diaphragm that is provided in a part of the ink channel and an electrode placed outside of the ink channel opposite to the diaphragm. The diaphragm is distorted by means of an electrostatic force generated by applying a first voltage to the electrostatic actuator. A second voltage, different than the first voltage, is applied to the actuator to relax the diaphragm and to discharge ejecting ink droplets from the nozzle.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of manufacturing a biochip using a droplet discharging device including a droplet discharging head having a cavity and a nozzle hole provided in communication with the cavity, and a liquid housing unit connected to the cavity via a passage, having the steps of filling a retention liquid which separates without getting mixed with the sample liquid into the liquid housing unit, the passage, and the cavity; injecting the sample liquid into the liquid housing unit; moving the sample liquid from the liquid housing unit to the cavity by discharging the retention liquid from the nozzle hole; stopping the discharge of the retention liquid at the moving step upon detecting with a sensor that the sample liquid reached a position adjacent to the nozzle hole; and delivering the sample liquid as droplets onto the object by discharging the sample liquid from the nozzle hole.
Abstract:
A method of forming a mask, in which a film pattern is formed on a substrate by using a mask, includes sequentially arranging the mask, the substrate and a first member having a flat surface contacting with the substrate in this order from a supply source of film forming material; and attracting the mask and the first member by means of a magnetic force.
