Inventor: MOTONARI MASAYUKI
IPC: B24B37/00
Filed: 2001-03-30
Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provides an
aqueous CMP dispersion with an adequately high initial removal
rate, and which, even after repeated polishing, exhibits at
least one, and preferably two or more, of the following
functions and effects: (1) reduction of performance of
polishing pads is suppressed and an adequate removal rate is
maintained, (2) generation of pits on polishing surfaces is
inhibited, and (3) uneven sections on polishing surfaces are
flattened, and satisfactory finished surfaces can be formed
with high precision. The aqueous CMP dispersion comprises an
abrasive, an organic compound and water. The organic compound
with an effect of suppressing reduction of performance of
polishing pads may be biphenol, bipyridyl, vinylpyridine,
adenine or the like. The organic compound with an effect of
inhibiting generation of pits on polishing surfaces may be
biphenol, bipyridyl, vinylpyridine, hypoxanthine or the like.
The organic compound with an effect of flattening uneven
sections on polishing surfaces may be biphenol, bipyridyl,
vinylpyridine, salicylaldoxime or the like. The aqueous CMP
dispersion of the present invention that contains specific
organic compounds has at least one and especially two functions
and effects from among that of suppressing reduction of
performance of polishing pads, that of suppressing void wearing
of polishing surfaces and that of flattening polishing surfaces,
as well as a combination of these three functions and effects,
even with repeated polishing. The aqueous CMP dispersion is 
particularly useful for polishing of copper films, and can form
satisfactory finished surfaces with high precision.

Abstract: There is provided a liquid-level gauge for accurately
measuring a liquid-level height of fluid to be measured. In
the liquid-level gauge, a float having a uniform cross-sectional
form in the height direction and a specific weight
value small than that of liquid is dipped in the liquid. The
float is supported by an optical fiber at a constant height such
that its upper end always projects from the liquid level. One
end of the optical fiber is connected to an optical fiber strain
gauge and a strain detector is turned round between fiber
support members. When the float receives buoyancy from the
liquid, tension is applied to the strain detector of optical
fiber to generate strain therein. By detecting the strain by
means of an optical fiber strain gauge, a liquid-level height
can be measured.

Abstract: The object is to provide a curtain airbag which has the
advantage of, for example, having the capability of
precisely deploying a bag portion along a side window glass.
Hangers (40) of the curtain airbag are members used to hang
a bag body (10) from a structural member of a vehicle, which
restrict the deployment direction of the bag body (10), and
which receive reaction force produced when the bag body (10)
deploys downwards. The hangers (40) are mounted to an ear
(17E) and an ear (17F) of the bag body (10), respectively.
The hangers (40) each include a strip-shaped flat plate
portion (41) and a sandwiching plate portion (43) formed
integrally with the corresponding flat plate portion (41).
The ears (17) of the bag body (10) are sandwiched between
inner plates (44) and outer plates (46) of the corresponding
sandwiching plate portions (43). By the flat plate portion
(41) of each hanger (40), the bag body (10) deploys smoothly
