摘要:
The present invention aims at reducing the number of scanning exposure and at enhancing throughput. the above-mentioned objective is achieved by allowing a substrate 14 to be placed in sideways with respect to a substrate holder 15a (placing the longer sides of the substrate in parallel to the shorter sides of the substrate holder) depending on the size of the apparatus and the size of the substrate 14. It is acceptable even when areas other than an effective exposure area of the substrate 14 should project out from the substrate holder.

The present invention aims at preventing deterioration of flatness of a substrate and contamination of a substrate-holding surface of a substrate holder, which are caused by a resist leaking into the back surface of the substrate. A substrate-holding surface of a substrate holder is provided with a first pair of grooves 31 and 32 extending from one end to the other along a scanning direction and a second pair of grooves 33 and 34 extending from one end to the other along a direction generally perpendicular to the scanning direction. The first and second grooves are positioned such that they make contact with the periphery of the substrate when the substrate is vertically or horizontally placed on the substrate holder. Even when a resist on a substrate leaks into the periphery of the back surface, the resist escapes into the grooves, thereby preventing deterioration of the flatness of the substrate or contamination of the substrate-holding surface.

A competition avoidance control method for a data transmission-reception system, a data transmission-reception system and a terminal for a data transmission-reception system for reducing electricity consumption by the terminal in wait state to send a PS-POLL. Each terminal sends a PS-POLL to an access point after a designated time has passed. Therefore, the terminals hardly send the PS-POLLs simultaneously to the access point. Thus, the terminals can avoid wasteful standby state, thus consuming lower amount of electricity while waiting to send PS-POLL.

摘要:
An optical signal emitted from a semiconductor laser is converged by a lens and then received by a single uniaxial birefringent crystal having a C axis that is inclined at an angle other than 90 degrees against a laser optical axis to output an optical signal having a polarized wave component of constant intensity corresponding to the wavelength of the optical signal regardless of temperature changes. The optical signal has an ordinary ray vibrating in a direction perpendicular to a plane including both the C axis and the laser optical axis, and an extraordinary ray vibrating in a direction perpendicular to both the ordinary ray and the laser optical axis. A first main photo detector detects the intensity of a p-polarized component of the optical signal that has passed through a polarizer and a second photo detector directly receives the optical signal converged by the lens.

A wavelength filter is disposed between a laser diode and a photodiode that receives the rear-facet output light of the laser diode. Either a part on one side of an input or an output surface of the wavelength filter is bounded to a protrusion provided in a metal holder for holding the wavelength filter. As a result, a support structure is obtained that does not bring a damage on the wavelength filter caused by degradation of optical characteristics or temperature variation of the wavelength filter when support-fixing a wavelength filter having a complex refractive index crystal.

The present invention is applied to a base station for periodically transmitting a transmission signal to a terminal. The base station includes: a transmitter/receiver that receives a reception signal; a noise verifier that outputs information regarding a generation time and a generation period of the noise that is periodically generated if the reception signal includes the noise; and a transmission timing determiner that determines setting a transmission period of the transmission signal to the same period as the generation period of the noise based on the information regarding the generation time and the generation period of the noise that is output from the noise verifier and shifting a start position of the transmission period by a predetermined time from an arbitrary generation time of the noise, wherein the transmitter/receiver transmits the transmission signal to the terminal at transmission timing of the transmission signal determined by the transmission timing determiner.
