A wavelength tunable filter and a wavelength tunable laser module are a codirectional coupler type whose characteristics do not vary significantly with a process error. They are structured so as to include a semiconductor substrate which has a first optical waveguide and a second optical waveguide. The first and the second optical waveguides are extended from a first side of the semiconductor substrate to an opposing second side thereof. The first optical waveguide includes a first core layer, which has a planar layout having periodic convexes and concaves, and a pair of electrodes, which vertically sandwich the first core layer. The second optical waveguide includes a second core layer, which has a lower refractive index than the first core layer. Further, a layer having the same composition and film thickness as the second core layer is placed under the first core layer.

A battery is provided which has a high capacity and can improve battery characteristics, such as cycle characteristics. The battery includes a spirally wound electrode body, wherein a cathode and an anode are wound with a separator in between. The anode includes, for example, simple substances, alloys, compounds of metal elements or metalloid elements capable of forming an alloy with Li, the like and combinations thereof. An electrolytic solution wherein an electrolyte salt is dissolved in a solvent is impregnated in the separator. For the electrolyte salt, a light metallic salt having B—O bond or P—O bond, such as difluoro[oxalato-O,O′]lithium borate and tetra fluoro[oxalato-O,O′]lithium phosphate, can be used. By forming a stable coating, decomposition reaction of the solvent can be inhibited, and reaction between the anode and the solvent can be prevented.

The compounds of the present invention have extremely potent anti-HCV activity and HCV growth inhibitory effects, and since they also only demonstrate mild cytotoxicity in vivo, a pharmaceutical composition containing the compound of the present invention is extremely useful as an anti-HCV preventive/therapeutic agent.
摘要:
A wavelength variable laser smaller in size than the conventional one can be achieved by arranging a gain chip, an etalon filter and a fifth reflective mirror on an AlN submount and longitudinally integrating the gain chip in which a 45° mirror and a lens are integrated and the etalon filter. A laser cavity has a structure in which light passes through an active layer from a first reflective mirror realized by an end surface of the gain chip, is reflected by the 45° mirror at an angle of 90° and then passes through the lens. The light having passed through the lens is converted into parallel light, passes through the etalon filter and reaches the fifth reflective mirror and is then reflected. The reflected light returns through the same optical path and reaches the first reflective mirror realized by the end surface of the gain chip.

Disclosed herewith is a data recording and reading equipment capable of reducing laser noise easily. At first, a laser beam source that can reduce the laser noise when reading data from a subject optical disk is obtained. A modulator capable of varying laser attenuation with a voltage is disposed so as to precede the laser, thereby the laser noise when reading data from the optical disk can be reduced without lowering the laser power when in writing.
摘要:
Since the semiconductor devices including a stacked structure of group-III-V alloy semiconductor layers different in the kind of group-V constituent atom form the so-called band line-up of type II, band discontinuity in the heterostructure has impeded smooth transport of carriers and deteriorated device characteristics.According to the present invention, an energy band structure that makes it possible, in one energy band (e.g., a valence band), to smoothly transport carriers of one of two kinds (e.g., holes) by connecting energy discontinuity in an inclined form or stepwise, and at the same, in the other energy band (e.g., a conduction band), to maintain a barrier effect for carriers of the other kind (e.g., electrons) by retaining energy discontinuity, can be realized for improved transport characteristics of carriers at the heterointerface forming the band line-up of type II.
