Abstract:
In a double gate FET, the threshold voltage during the operation of a transient response thereof is enabled to be arbitrarily and accurately controlled by a method that includes applying a first input signal intended to perform an ordinary logic operation to one of the gate electrodes thereof and applying, in response to this signal, a second signal that has a signal-level temporal-change direction as the first input signal and has at least one of the low level and the high level thereof shifted by a predetermined magnitude or endowed with a predetermined time difference or has the time slower or faster signal level change of the signal to the other gate electrode.
Abstract:
A metal rod guide (30) supports a metal rod (1) that can be inclined at an arbitrary angle, the support is instantaneously released to produce a free fall state, and during the release period, a first end surface (2) of the metal rod is impacted by a projectile (3) at the same angle as the metal rod, generating an elastic wave pulse in the metal rod. A direct current acceleration sensor (23) detects an acceleration arising when the elastic wave pulse reflects at the other end surface (22) of the metal rod. A strain gauge (25) provided on a side surface of the metal rod and/or a laser interferometer (24) measure strain and end surface motion and the measured values are processed to obtain a frequency response of the direct current acceleration sensor and measure frequency characteristics of the direct current acceleration sensor.

Abstract:
On a grooved semiconductor substrate having a plurality of V-grooves individually extended in directions perpendicular to a direction Is of advance of an oscillated laser beam and mutually disposed in parallel along the direction Is of advance of the laser beam, a plurality of quantum wires (11) are formed on the V-grooves by selective growth of a Group III-V compound. The plurality of quantum wires are adapted to serve as limited-length active layer regions mutually disposed in parallel along the direction Is of advance of the laser beam with a period of an integer times of a quarter wavelength in a medium of a laser active layer and individually corresponding to stripe widths of laser. Consequently, a quantum nano-structure semiconductor laser satisfying at least one, or preferably both, of the decrease of a threshold and the stabilization of an oscillation frequency as compared with a conventional countertype can be provided.
Abstract:
An acceleration sensor (22) to be calibrated and evaluated is affixed to one end surface (22) of a metal rod (1), and a plurality of projectiles (3) are made to impact the other end surface (2) of the metal rod at prescribed time intervals, generating an elastic wave pulse in the metal rod. Dynamic displacement, velocity or acceleration in a direction normal to the other end surface arising in a process of the generated elastic wave pulse reaching and being reflected by the one end surface where the acceleration sensor is affixed is measured, and an acceleration measured, processed and corrected by a strain gauge (25) attached to a side surface of the metal rod or by a laser interferometer (24) is obtained, and the corrected acceleration and the output of the acceleration sensor are compared to thereby carry out calibration and evaluation of the acceleration sensor.
Abstract:
Quantum wire is formed on the bottom of a V-shaped groove in a V-grooved substrate as a channel between source and drain electrodes or as at least part of the channel. A photocarrier accumulation region is provided within the quantum wire or at a position connected to or adjacent to the quantum wire for accumulating charges generated when light shines onto a photosensitive region that comprises at least a clad layer that covers the quantum wire. A recess is provided in the upper clad layer to localize the photocarrier accumulation region. As a result, it is possible to provide a photodetector that exhibits high sensitivity, high speed and low power consumption in an expanded wavelength region. It is also possible to provide a photodetector capable of constructing core portions thereof by one-time selective growth.
Abstract:
A novel nucleic acid probe for nucleic acid determination includes a single-stranded nucleic acid labeled with plural fluorescent dyes containing at least one pair of fluorescent dyes to induce FRET, the pair of fluorescent dyes including a fluorescent dye (a donor dye) capable of serving as a donor dye and a fluorescent dye (an acceptor dye) capable of serving as an acceptor dye, in which the nucleic acid probe has such a base sequence and is labeled with the fluorescent dyes so that the fluorescence intensity of the acceptor dye decreases upon hybridization with a target nucleic acid. A novel nucleic acid determination method uses the probe. The probe and method can determine one or more types of target nucleic acids in an assay system in parallel using a simple apparatus.
