Abstract:
In an Mn-containing perovskite oxide which is a conventional phase-change substance (A1−xBx)MnO3, when the mixing amount x is increased, the transition temperature (Tc) is shifted to higher temperature side, but the slope of a change in the emittance become gentle and Δε (ε at higher temperature−ε at lower temperature) also become small. In the present invention, the compositional formula of the phase-change substance is the Mn-containing perovskite oxide represented by (A1−xBx)Mn1+yO3 with 0

Abstract:
A heat controller for an object, having a composite material formed of a base material radiating a large amount of heat at a high-temperature phase and a phase-change substance having insulation properties at a high-temperature phase, having metallic properties at a low-temperature phase, radiating a small amount of heat at a low-temperature phase, and having a high reflectivity in the thermal infrared region at a low-temperature phase.
Abstract:
A fuel cell is provided which can supply the stable power and has higher reliability and a longer period of life without the influence of the circumstances and the operation conditions. An absorbent disposed near an oxidant electrode of a fuel cell including a fuel electrode and the oxidant electrode approaches to the vicinity of or is in contact with the oxidant electrode surface or departs from the oxidant electrode. Thereby, the absorbent removes moisture on the oxidant electrode so that the fuel cell which can supply the stable power with the higher reliability and the longer period of life can be provided.
Abstract:
A fuel cell has a fuel electrode and an oxidizing agent electrode, a fuel supply path that supplies a liquid fuel to the fuel electrode, an oxidizing agent supply path that supplies an oxidizing agent to the oxidizing agent electrode, and an opening/closing member that, by changing its shape, opens and closes the oxidizing agent supply path. The change in the shape of the opening/closing member regulates the opening and closing of the oxidizing agent supply path.
Abstract:
A plume (109) is generated by irradiating a side face of a graphite rod (101) with a laser beam (103) to vaporize carbon. The vaporized carbon is introduced to a carbon nanohorn recovery chamber (119) through a recovery pipe (155), and the vaporized carbon is recovered as a carbon nanohorn assembly (117). A cooling tank (150) including liquid nitrogen (151) is arranged in the recovery pipe (155). While the cooling tank (150) controls the plume (109) at a low temperature, the cooling tank (150) cools the carbon vapor when the carbon vapor passes through the recovery pipe (155). The cooled carbon vapor is recovered as the carbon nanohorn assembly (117) which is controlled in the desired shape and dimensions.
Abstract:
A fuel cell (100) is mounted with a fuel cartridge (1220) in a detachable manner. The fuel cartridge (1220) is provided with a connecting part (1225) and the fuel cell (100) is provided with a fitting part (1205) into which the connecting part (1225) is fitted. The fuel cell (100) identifies the fitted fuel cartridge (1220).
Abstract:
A surface of a graphite target (139), irradiated with a laser beam (103), is formed in a plane. The graphite target (139) is held by a target holding unit (153) on a target supply plate (135). A plate holding unit (137) moves the target supply plate (135) in a translational manner, which allows an irradiation position of the laser beam (103) and the surface of the graphite target (139) to be relatively moved. A transportation pipe (141) communicated with a nanocarbon collecting chamber (119) is provided toward a direction in which a plume (109) is generated, and a generated carbon nanohorn aggregates (117) is collected in the nanocarbon collecting chamber (119).
Abstract:
A production method and a production apparatus for stable mass production of nanocarbon are provided. In a production chamber (107), a graphite rod (101) having a cylindrical shape is fixed to a rotation apparatus (115), and is made to be capable of rotating with the length direction of the graphite rod (101) serving as an axis, and also moving to the right or the left in the length direction. The side surface of the graphite rod (101) is irradiated with a laser beam (103) from a laser light source (111), and a nanocarbon collecting chamber (119) is disposed in the direction of generation of plumes (109). On the other hand, the surface irradiated with the laser beam (103) among the side surfaces of the graphite rod (101) is speedily rotated by the rotation apparatus (115) and is flattened by a cutting tool (105). Cut dusts of the graphite rod (101) generated by the cutting tool (105) are collected into a cut graphite collecting chamber (121) and separated from the generated carbon nanohorn aggregates (117).
Abstract:
In an infrared ray sensor for a bolometer, a bridge structure body, a resistive element film for the bolometer, and a protection film is formed via a space on a substrate, and is formed into a solution form by dissolving metal organic compound into solvent. The solution is applied and dried. A laser ray is irradiated for the solution with wavelength of 400 nm or less. A bond between carbon and oxygen is decomposed and cut to thereby form an oxide thin-film.
