摘要:
An inkjet recording apparatus including: (a) a recording head; (b) an ink supply source; (c) an ink supply conduit interconnecting the recording head and the ink supply source, such that the ink is supplied from the ink supply source to the recording head in an ink supplying direction; (d) a movable body disposed in the ink supply conduit and movable in the ink supply conduit; (e) a moving device configured to move the movable body in the ink supply conduit; and (f) a control device configured to control the moving device. The ink supply conduit includes a small-clearance defining portion in which a small clearance is to be defined between the movable body and an inner surface of the ink supply conduit when the movable body is being positioned in the small-clearance defining portion. The control device is configured to control the moving device, such that the movable body is moved from a first position located in the small-clearance defining portion, to a second position located in the small-clearance defining portion, whereby the ink within the small-clearance defining portion is caused to flow toward the recording head.

A DC powered integrated circuit includes a plurality of magnetic flux coupling type Josephson elements. First and second Josephson elements are connected in series to form a first element series circuit of Josephson elements. Third and fourth Josephson elements are connected in series to form a second element series circuit of Josephson elements. The first and second element series circuits are connected in series to form a huffle circuit, with a load inductance, three resistors and a DC current source.

A process for treating radioactive sludge waste wasted in a nuclear power plant comprises the steps of pulverizing the radioactive sludge waste into dry powder which is combustible, burning the powder into ashes, and pelletizing the ashes. The radioactive sludge waste including granular ion-exchange resins, powder resins, filter sludge, etc. is reduced in volume by subjecting to combustion.

A liquid cartridge includes a liquid accommodating unit, a delivery channel, a valve, and a locking mechanism. The liquid accommodating unit is configured to accommodate liquid. The delivery channel is configured to discharge the liquid outside. The delivery channel is in fluid communication with the liquid accommodating unit. The valve includes a valve body provided in the delivery channel. The valve body is configured to selectively move between a closed position where the delivery channel is closed and an open position where the delivery channel is open. The locking mechanism includes a locking member configured to selectively move between a locking position to prevent the valve body positioned at the closed position from moving to the open position and a disengaged position to allow the valve body positioned at the closed position to move to the open position.

A liquid cartridge includes a liquid storing portion that stores liquid therein, a liquid path that is in fluid communication with the liquid storing portion, a sensor, and a memory. The sensor outputs a particular data corresponding to a particular value indicating that the liquid storing portion is in fluid communication with an exterior of the liquid cartridge, and a further data corresponding to a further value indicating that the liquid storing portion is not in fluid communication with the exterior of the liquid cartridge. The memory includes a first data corresponding to a first value and a second data corresponding to a second value. The first value and the second value are defined such that when the particular data and the further data are outputted, one half of a sum of the first value and the second value is between the particular value and the further value.

摘要:
A method of producing a Josephson junction device consisting of thin films of superconducting materials such as niobium and niobium nitride that work at cryogenic temperatures, in which a base electrode layer, tunnel barrier layer and a counterelectrode layer constituting a Josephson junction are formed on a substrate. In order to form a desired electrode pattern on the counterelectrode layer, a resist pattern is used as a mask for dry etching, followed by a plasma ashing process for ablating part of the resist in order to form a terrace-shaped portion at the edges and corners of the counterelectrode pattern by reforming and shrinking the cross-sectional geometry of the resist. Then, a thin insulating film for covering the edged layers is deposited over the entire surface of substrate, followed by the removal of said resist pattern together with said insulating film deposited on said resist pattern in order to form a protecting layer around the counterelectrode pattern. The substrate further undergoes subsequent stages to produce a Josephson junction device.
