摘要:
An ink cartridge that is filled with ink and, used with the ink cartridge loaded into a printer includes a reservoir that reserves the ink, an outlet through which the ink is supplied to the printer with the ink cartridge loaded, at least one ink supply system that includes a channel that leads the ink from the reservoir to the outlet, and a sensor that detects whether the channel is filled with the ink or gas, an ink cartridge terminal that is electrically coupled to the sensor and makes contact with a printer terminal disposed on the printer upon loading of the ink cartridge. A detection region of the channel where detection is carried out by the sensor is previously filled with gas with the ink cartridge yet to be used. Whether or not the use of the ink cartridge is proper is determined based on information from the sensor.

An electroluminescence device includes a tubular first electrode, an electroluminescence layer formed on an inner surface of the first electrode, and a second electrode formed on an inner surface of the electroluminescence layer. A method for manufacturing the electroluminescence device includes: conducting an electroluminescence layer forming liquid into and out of the inside of the first electrode, thereby forming a liquid film of the electroluminescence layer forming liquid on the inner surface of the first electrode; and forming the electroluminescence layer by drying the liquid film of the electroluminescence layer forming liquid formed on the inner surface of the first electrode. This facilitates modification of the size or the shape of the electroluminescence device and thus improves productivity for manufacturing the electroluminescence device.

To provide a pattern forming method enabling a thin film to be patterned with high precision by easy and low cost techniques. A thin film 2 is provided on a base material 1 containing a sublimable dyestuff, light is irradiated to the base material 1, and heat generated by the light irradiation sublimates the sublimable dyestuff in a desired region, thereby removing the thin film 2 corresponding to an irradiation region where the light is irradiated to thereby pattern this thin film 2.
