摘要:
A method for producing silicon using microwave and a microwave reduction furnace for use therewith are disclosed, with which it is possible to quickly reduce silica to quickly produce silicon. A material of a mixture of a silica powder and a graphite powder of a mixture of a silica powder, a silicon carbide powder and a graphite powder is set in a refractory chamber. Then, the material set in the chamber is irradiated with microwave. The graphite powder absorbs a microwave energy to increase the temperature, after which silica and graphite react with each other to further increase the temperature while producing silicon carbide, and the heated silica and silicon carbide react with each other. SiO produced through this reaction and silicon carbide are allowed to react with each other, thereby producing high-purity silicon.

A reactor has a casing composed of a magnesia-based refractory, and a bottom plate composed of an MgO-graphite mixed refractory is disposed on a bottom part of this casing. A graphite crucible is provided at a bottom of the reactor, and the graphite crucible and the reactor are joined together by a magnesia cylinder. Iron ore powder, coal powder, and other such raw materials supplied into the reactor are irradiated with microwaves from microwave oscillators and are heated. The iron ore is reduced, and the resulting molten pig iron flows out through a hole into a crucible, and then is poured out of the crucible through another hole into a ladle. It is thereby possible to manufacture molten pig iron with high energy efficiency, instead of using blast-furnace iron-making.

Disclosed is an articulator for completely reproducing mandibular movement of a living subject by performing adjustment of occlusion by regulating condylar spheres and condyle boxes disposed between maxillar and mandibular frames carrying maxillar and maxillar casts with a Bennett lift mechanism. The Bennett lift mechanism is mounted independently of the condyle boxes and on a base axis connecting the condylar spheres independently of the condyle boxes, so that vertical regulation of movements of a mandible in vertical, lateral and anteroposterior directions can be individually reproduced. Also, opening and closing movement of the maxillar and mandibular casts around the base axis (intercondylar axis) can be performed in an centric occlusion position.

The purpose of the present invention is to allow victims of a disaster or the like to drink a relatively small amount of drinkable water as the temporary measure in emergency. A filter (6) into which one end part (3EP) of a hose (3) is inserted, and which is comprised of a sponge having a weight therein, is submerged into dirty water (8). When the victim releases his/her hand from a state in which he/she applies a force (F), a suction force is generated inside a pressure pump (2). By the action of the suction force, a part of the dirty water (8) which entered into the filter (6) and from which mud or the like is filtered is sucked into the hose (3) via a plurality of through-holes formed in the one end part (3EP) to flow into the pressure pump (2). The pushing force is generated manually inside the pressure pump (2) by applying the force (F). By the pushing force, filtered water inside the pressure pump (2) is discharged to a water purifier (4), and a water purifier (4) purifies the inflow water to generate drinking water although it is a small amount.

According to one embodiment, a solid state imaging device has a semiconductor substrate. First, second and third photoelectric conversion portions are provided in a surface region of the semiconductor substrate. A blue color filter has a film thickness to give a first light path length. A green color filter has a film thickness to give a second light path length longer than the first light path length. A red color filter has a film thickness to give a third light path length longer than the second light path length. A flattening film is formed on the blue color filter, the green color filter and the red color filter. The flattening film flats steps of the color filters.

In this arrangement, a laser beam from the light source with a shortest wavelength is reflected by the least number of times.
摘要:
A camera apparatus which can perform detail enhancement on a selected set of color signals. Fundamental color signals are respectively detected by a plurality of imaging devices and output in response to vertical transfer signals. For color signals on which detail enhancement is not to be performed, the vertical transfer pulse is sent to the corresponding imaging device at a reference timing. For the selected color signals on which detail enhancement is to be performed, the vertical transfer pulse is sent to the corresponding imaging device at a timing which is ahead of the reference timing. In one embodiment, vertical transfer pulses of the reference timing are generated, and additional pulses which are ahead of the reference timing are also generated. In another embodiment, vertical transfer pulses are continuously generated, but some pulses are selectively suppressed or subtracted to produce pulses of two different timings.
