摘要:
This invention provides a CIS-based thin film solar battery and a process for producing the same in which the formation of an alkali barrier layer and a metal backside electrode layer is carried out at a low cost in a short time to prevent such an unfavorable phenomenon that a light absorbing layer is separated from the interface of the light absorbing layer and the metal backside electrode layer. The CIS-based thin film solar battery (1) comprises a glass substrate (2), an alkali-free layer (7) such as silica, a metal backside electrode layer (3) having a laminate structure, a p-type CIS-based light absorbing layer (4), a high-resistance buffer layer (5), and an n-type window layer (6) stacked in that order. The layer (7), either alone or together with a first layer (3a) in the layer (3), can function as an alkali barrier layer (8) that can prevent and control the thermal diffusion of an alkali component into the light absorbing layer during the formation of the layer (4) from the substrate (2). In the layer (3a), crystal grains are fine and has high density. After the formation of the layer (7) on the substrate by RF or DC sputtering, the layer (3) is continuously formed on the layer (7) by DC sputtering.

A photovoltaic module having long-term durability is obtained at low cost.A CIS based thin-film photovoltaic module 1 is obtained by bonding a cover glass 4 comprising, e.g., a semi-tempered white flat glass, which is inexpensive and durable, to a CIS based thin-film photovoltaic circuit 2 on a glass substrate 2A with a thermally crosslinked ethylene vinyl acetate (hereinafter referred to as EVA) resin film 3 (or sheet) as an adhesive. Use of the EVA resin film 3 reduces the amount of an EVA resin to be used. In the crosslinking, a gas generating from the EVA resin film is removed by vacuum suction to prevent bubble generation or inclusion, etc. A high-capacity storage capacitor 9 is disposed on that side of the glass substrate which is opposite to the circuit side to store the electricity optically generated by the circuit.

Constituent materials of a CIS type thin-film photovoltaic module are made separable and recyclable without reducing output characteristics and durability.A thin-film photovoltaic module 1 having a substrate structure comprising a CIS type thin-film solar cell device 2 and a cover glass 4 bonded to the light incidence side of the device 2 with a thermally crosslinked EVA resin or the like 3 as an adhesive is made to include a non-adhesive plastic (e.g., polyester) resin 6 sandwiched between the solar cell device 2 and the EVA resin 3. Thus, the constituent materials are separable. Through later simple separation steps, the constituent materials are separated and recovered.

A plurality of position data sets representing a plurality of points on a road ahead of a vehicle are acquired, and the degree of curvature of the road at each point is computed. On the basis of the degree of curvature, a constant curvature degree section of a curve is identified, and the degree of curvature and the end position of the constant curvature degree section are determined. In order to cause the vehicle to properly pass through the curve, curve deceleration control is executed on the basis of the actual vehicle speed, a proper vehicle speed determined from the degree of curvature, and the end position of the constant curvature degree section. That is, the curve deceleration control is performed on the basis of the start point of a section of a curve having the maximum degree of curvature and the constant degree of curvature of that section.

A medical image display apparatus according to an embodiment includes a display unit, a generating unit, and a display controlling unit. The display unit three-dimensionally displays a group of disparity images generated from three-dimensional medical image data. The generating unit determines a display position of the group of disparity images to be three-dimensionally displayed on the display unit in terms of a depth direction with respect to a display surface of the display unit and generates the group of disparity images from the three-dimensional medical image data so as to realize the determined display position. The display controlling unit three-dimensionally displays the group of disparity images and two-dimensionally displays a medical image different from the group of disparity images, on the display unit.

Disclosed is a fuel cell stack comprising a fuel cell unit and separators which are stacked with each other. The separator is provided with a cooling medium supply port corresponding to a central portion of an electrode power-generating section and a cooling medium discharge port corresponding to an outer circumferential portion of the electrode power-generating section. The cooling medium supply port communicates with the cooling medium discharge port via a cooling medium flow passage having a spiral configuration. Accordingly, the entire fuel cell unit can be uniformly cooled, and the power-generating function can be effectively improved.

First gas flow passage grooves communicating with a fuel gas inlet and second gas flow passage grooves communicating with a fuel gas outlet are provided on a surface of a first separator. First and second united sections are provided at merged portions of the first gas flow passage grooves and the second gas flow passage grooves. Accordingly, the number of gas flow passage grooves is throttled from the side of the fuel gas inlet to the side of the fuel gas outlet. The turbulence is allowed to occur at the throttled portion to make it possible to improve the gas diffusion performance.
摘要:
An image detecting device has a large dynamic range that deals with a plurality of image detecting modes. The image detecting device is composed of pixels e (i, j) arranged in a matrix array. Each pixel has a photoelectric element. In each pixel, a capacitor 102 and a protecting diode 103 are disposed. The capacitor 102 stores electric charge corresponding to the intensity of penetrated light to the relevant pixel. The protecting diode limits the capacitance. A bias voltage is supplied to the protecting diode 103 through a bias line Bias. The bias voltage is adjusted by a bias voltage controlling system 133 corresponding to the frame rate. Thus, the influence of a leak current in the off-state of the protecting diode 103 can be alleviated against electric charge stored in the capacitor 102. Consequently, an image with a high S/N ratio can be obtained regardless of the frame rate.

According to a driving method of a matrix-type display device of the present invention, a reference clock signal supplied by a reference clock oscillator is divided by a plurality of frequency dividing circuits, so that division clock signals are obtained. One among the division clock signals is selected by a switching operation by a switching circuit, and the selected division clock signal is outputted as a sampling clock signal to a row electrode driving circuit. Timings for the switching operation of the switching circuit are controlled by a switching control circuit in accordance with a horizontal synchronization signal and the reference clock signal. One or more of the frequency dividing circuits outputs a division clock signal having unequal clocks, when necessary. By thus arranging the division clock signals so that they have unequal clocks, it is allowed to set N of the division ratio 1/N to a value other than an integral number. Therefore, it is possible to set the division ratios close to each other, and hence, it is ensured that the reference clock signal has a lower frequency.
