摘要:
An apparatus for forming I-III-VI.sub.2 thin-film layers has a reaction chamber made of a carbon material in which a precursor for forming a I-III-VI.sub.2 thin-film layer and a vapor source of an element of group VI of the periodic table are placed. The precursor and vapor source are heated under vacuum to form the I-III-VI.sub.2 thin-film layer. The reaction chamber is divided into a reaction compartment A having the precursor placed therein and a reaction compartment B having the vapor element of group IV placed therein. A communication channel C is provided between the reaction compartments A and B, and a heating unit controlled by a temperature control unit is provided exterior to each of the reaction compartments A and B.

A base is provided with a gas outlet pipe and a gas inlet pipe. A bell jar is placed on top of the base with an O-ring interposed between them. Thin-film solar cells and a Se powder are placed in a recess formed in a lower heating jig, and the lower heating jig is positioned on the base. An upper heating jig is placed on top of the lower heating jig. The upper heating jig is vertically moved by a vertically actuating mechanism. The upper and lower heating jigs are heated with a heater so as to react Se with the thin-film solar cells, whereby a CuInSe.sub.2 alloy film is formed. In a method of manufacturing a thin-film solar cell, a molybdenum layer and a copper layer are formed on a substrate by sputtering. A selenium-dispersed indium layer is formed on the copper layer in a solution, which includes indium ions and dispersed selenium colloid, by electrodeposition. The thus formed selenium-dispersed indium layer and the selenium are heated in a sealed container. Alternatively, a conductive substrate is plated in a solution comprising copper ions and selenium ions, so that a copper-selenium layer is formed on the conductive substrate. The thus plated substrate is further plated in a solution comprising indium ions and selenium ions, so that an indium-selenium layer is formed on the copper-selenium layer. As a result, a pre-cursor is completed. Then, this precursor is subjected to heat treatment.

摘要:
A method for manufacturing a thin-film solar cell substrate of group IB, IIIB and VIB elements of the Periodic Table, by using an apparatus for depositing selenium (Se) on the thin-film solar cell substrate. The apparatus has a base with gas inlet and outlet pipes. A bell jar is placed on top of the base with an O-ring interposed between them. A thin-film solar cell precursor and Se powder are placed in a recess formed in a lower heating jig, and the lower heating jig is positioned on the base. An upper heating jig is placed on top of the lower heating jig. The upper heating jig is vertically moved by a vertically actuating mechanism. The upper and lower heating jigs are heated under vacuum so as to diffuse Se to the thin-film solar cells, whereby a CuInSe2 alloy film is formed.
摘要:
A source controller unit for controlling an x-ray source is provided with a detection signal interface for receiving detection signals from detective pixels of an electronic cassette or an integrated value of the detection signals only, or an interface for receiving a radiation stopping signal only. The source controller unit receives other radiation signals than the radiation stopping signal, such as a radiation admitting signal, through a radiation signal interface. The source controller unit uses the detection signals, the integrated value thereof, or the radiation stopping signal as exposure control signals for stopping radiation from the x-ray source. Since the exposure control signals are received on the specific interface therefor, the source controller unit does not need signal sorting operation nor receive different kinds of signals at the same time, improving the speed of radiation stopping procedure.
摘要:
In continuous radiography, while a patient stands in front of an imaging support, a total image capture field is determined. The total image capture field is divided into small image capture fields. A map scaling section scales up or down a full spine irradiation area map in accordance with the size of the total image capture field. A map dividing section divides the scaled map into small maps corresponding to the small image capture fields. In each division exposure, a detection pixel selector selects one or more detection pixels belonging to an irradiation area defined by the small map, out of all detection pixels distributed in an imaging surface of an electronic cassette. If an integration value of a detection signal from the selected detection pixel reaches a threshold value, X-ray emission is stopped. Division X-ray images obtained by the division exposures are merged into a single continuous X-ray image.

A compensation circuit 76 of an AEC unit 67 of an electronic cassette 13 defines the detection signal of a detection pixel 65 of the electronic cassette 13 as a detection signal corresponding to the detection signal of an old AEC sensor 25. The compensation circuit 76 performs compensation so as to exclude the influence on the detection signal due to a difference in the configuration of an intermediate member disposed between an X-ray source 10 and an FPD 35 of the electronic cassette 13 when the detection pixel 65 is used as an AEC sensor instead of the old AEC sensor 25. The detection signal is transmitted from a detection signal I/F 80 to a detection signal I/F 26 of a source control device 11 as it is (instantaneous value) or as an accumulated value obtained using an integration circuit 77.

摘要:
A portable radiographic imaging device and a portable X-ray source, that operate due to a first and second rechargeable battery respectively, can be accommodated in an accommodating case that is portable. While the accommodating case is being transported, a charging circuit provided in the accommodating case acquires electric power from a third rechargeable battery accommodated in the accommodating case, and charges the first and second rechargeable batteries. In this way, by accommodating the portable radiographic imaging device and the portable X-ray source in the accommodating case, the rechargeable batteries for the portable radiographic imaging device and the portable X-ray source are charged during transport.
摘要:
Disclosed is a technique for correcting a pixel defect in the capture of two radiological images with parallax therebetween. Radiation beam is directly radiated to a radiation detector 15 in two radiographing directions, without passing through a subject, thereby acquiring two defect detecting radiological images. A pixel defect in each of the two defect detecting radiological images is detected in advance. A pixel position where the pixel defect occurs is stored in advance so as to be associated with each radiographing direction. Then, radiation beam is radiated to the subject from the two radiographing directions to acquire two radiological images for diagnosis. A target pixel which is disposed at the stored pixel position where the pixel defect occurs in each of the two radiological images for diagnosis is corrected.
摘要:
A portable radiographic apparatus system reduces the number of types of spare rechargeable battery. A first rechargeable battery for operation of a portable radiographic apparatus has the same shape and characteristics as a second rechargeable battery for operation of a portable X-ray source. The first rechargeable battery and the second rechargeable battery are interchangeable. When, in order capture images during a visit to an individual's home or a visit to a nursing facility, the portable radiographic apparatus and the portable X-ray source are taken to the visit destination, spare rechargeable batteries must be taken in case of trouble with the rechargeable batteries. Because the first rechargeable battery and the second rechargeable battery are interchangeable, by bringing either the first rechargeable battery or the second rechargeable battery, trouble can be addressed if it arises. In this way, the number of types of spare rechargeable battery can be reduced.
