Abstract:
An elastically deformable electrode that includes a plurality of electrode elements spaced from each other, and a liquid wire which is a liquid conductor configured to electrically connect the plurality of electrode elements. The electrode may also include a solid wire sealing the liquid wire, and an insulator between the solid wire and the plurality of electrode elements.
Abstract:
The multilayer substrate includes: a plurality of dielectric layers stacked on one another; a first conductor pattern 20 which is disposed along a principal surface 12a of a dielectric layer 12 and which is electrically connected to a ground; and second conductor patterns 22 and 24 which are disposed along the principal surface of a dielectric layer and which are opposed to the first conductor pattern 20 only through the dielectric layers therebetween, the second conductor patterns 22 and 24 forming inductor elements. Only the dielectric layers that sandwich the first conductor pattern 20 therebetween are bonded to each other via openings 20a through 20h formed in the first conductor pattern 20. As viewed from the stacking direction, the second conductor patterns substantially entirely overlap a portion other than the openings 20a through 20h in the first conductor pattern 20.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a measuring method comprising the steps of holding a specimen on a flat-plate periodic structure, applying a linearly-polarized electromagnetic wave to the periodic structure, and measuring characteristics of the specimen based on change of the electromagnetic wave scattered forward or backward by the periodic structure, wherein the periodic structure is structured such that plural unit structures having the same shape are two-dimensionally and periodically interconnected in a direction of one reference plane, the unit structure has at least one aperture penetrating therethrough in a direction perpendicular to the reference plane, the electromagnetic wave is applied from a direction perpendicular to the reference plane, and the unit structure has a shape that is not mirror-symmetric with respect to an imaginary plane orthogonal to a polarizing direction of the electromagnetic wave.

Abstract:
A plate-shaped periodic structure is provided that includes at least two aperture portions extending through the periodic structure in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the periodic structure and periodically arranged in at least one direction along the main surface. Each of the aperture portions has a shape that is not mirror-symmetric with respect to an imaginary plane that is a plane perpendicular to the main surface. Each of the aperture portions includes a constricted portion at which a gap distance of the aperture portion is partially small, the gap distance being a width in a direction parallel to a line of intersection of the main surface and the imaginary plane.
