Abstract: The invention provides a method of depositing a patterned thin layer for repairing a wiring disconnection of a liquid crystal wiring substrate (12). The method includes the steps of positioning a medium (15) in the vicinity of or in contact with the disconnection of the substrate (12), and radiating a laser beam to the medium (15) so that a material produced by a thermal decomposition of the medium (15) is stuck to the disconnection to form a patterned thin layer for repairing the disconnection. Since the method does not need the steps of applying a medium to a substrate, heating a substrate, and washing a substrate after a modification has been completed, all of these steps are required in conventional methods, it takes only 30 seconds per a repairing, whereas the conventional methods took about 5 minutes.

Abstract: The time constant determined by a high-speed time constant circuit (32) is suitable for high-speed pulling of an output frequency (f₀) , and the time constant determined by the low-speed time constant circuit (33, 34) is suitable for stabilization of the output frequency (f₀) at a corresponding value and suppression of a spurious output frequency. When the output frequency (f₀) is switched from (f a ) to (f b ), for example, the output frequency (f₀) is switched by setting the frequency division ratio (n) in the state in which the switch (S a ) is ON, while the switch (S b ) is OFF. Simultaneously, the switch (S a ) is turned off, and after the output frequency (f₀) is stabilized, the switch (S b ) is turned on. The speed of switching the output frequency (f₀) is heightened and a spurious output frequency after switching the frequency is suppressed without using an A/D converter or a D/A/ converter having high accuracy.
