According to one embodiment, a method is disclosed for manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device. The method can include forming a nitride semiconductor layer including a light emitting layer on a first substrate having an unevenness, bonding the nitride layer to a second substrate, and separating the first substrate from the nitride layer by irradiating the nitride layer with light. The forming the nitride layer includes leaving a cavity in a space inside a depression of the unevenness while forming a thin film on the depression. The film includes a same material as part of the nitride layer. The separating includes causing the film to absorb part of the light so that intensity of the light applied to a portion of the nitride layer facing the depression is made lower than intensity of the light applied to a portion facing a protrusion of the unevenness.

A fixing device includes a fixing rotary body, an opposed member opposing the fixing rotary body to form a nipping portion, and a heater to heat the fixing rotary body. The heater includes heat generators arranged in a width direction of a recording medium and separately supplied with power. When an unfixed image on the medium has an image area and a non-image area, power supplied to each of the heat generators is controlled so that, of the heat generators, a first heat generator corresponding to the image area becomes a higher temperature and second heat generators corresponding to the non-image area becomes a lower temperature. When the second heat generators are adjacent to each other, power supplied to one of the second heat generators closer to the image area is set to be greater than power supplied to another of the second heat generators farther from the image area.

A high pressure fuel pipe construction for an internal combustion engine, such as a direct injection engine. A conduit for the fuel is open at each end and a ball having a throughbore is slidably positioned over one end of the conduit. A reinforcing sleeve is positioned inside the end of the conduit so that the sleeve extends entirely through the ball. The sleeve, ball and the end of the conduit are then brazed together to attach the ball and conduit together. A double chamfer is provided at one end of the ball throughbore to facilitate inspection of the brazing quality. Additionally, a loop is formed in the conduit and a dampener is attached to the loop.

The present embodiments provide an acceleration sensor, which enables highly accurate detection and has an extremely compact size. The acceleration sensor of the present embodiments is provided with a substrate, a anchor portion formed on the substrate, a support beam, which has one end connected to the anchor portion and extends across a space from the substrate, and a proof mass which is connected to the other end of the support beam and held across a space from the substrate. The acceleration sensor is further provided with first and second piezoelectric bending resonators, a comparison unit, and a calculation unit. The first and second piezoelectric bending resonators have one end connected to the anchor portion and the other end connected to the proof mass or the support beam and have a stack of a first electrode, a first piezoelectric film, and a second electrode. The first and second piezoelectric bending resonators extend on the both sides of the support beam and perform bending resonance motion in a direction perpendicular to the piezoelectric film. The comparison unit measures a difference of a resonance frequency between the first and second piezoelectric bending resonators. The calculation unit calculates an acceleration in a direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the support beam in the substrate surface from the difference of the resonance frequency.
