Abstract: A waveform represents the gray level of a picture
element over a certain number of frames of an image, the
picture element being scanned during a certain interval in
each frame. Each interval is divided into parts. The
waveform has either a high level or a low level in each part
of each interval. The number of high parts of the waveform,
taken collectively over the intervals in the above number of
frames, is variable in steps of one part, according to the
gray level of the picture element. In a matrix-addressed
display, the waveforms are varied so that the waveforms of
side-by-side picture elements do not all go high and low in
unison.

Abstract: A refrigerant compressor is configured such that a
compressor unit is installed in a hermetically sealed
container, an HFC type refrigerant or a mixture thereof and a
refrigerator oil having compatibility with the refrigerant
are charged into the hermetically sealed container, and the
refrigerator oil essentially comprises a polyvinyl ether type
compound having structural units represented by the following
general formula (1):
 
, wherein n is an integral number in the range of 1 or more,
R1 to R3 are each a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group
having 1 to 8 carbon atoms and may be the same or different,
R4 is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and units in
which R4 is an alkyl group having 1 to 2 carbon atoms are 40
to 100 % and units in which R4 is an alkyl group having 3 to
4 carbon atoms are 0 to 60 %. As a result, the generation of
a carboxylic acid caused by thermal cracking or hydrolysis
due to frictional heat generated by sliding members is
prevented and the generation of sludge is thereby suppressed.

Abstract: Standardization is achieved for FTIR spectrometric instruments
that effect an intrinsic distortion in spectral information, the
distortion being associated with an aperture size. An idealized
function of spectral line shape is specified. With a small
calibration aperture, spectral data is obtained for a basic
sample having known "true" spectral data, and standard spectral
data also is obtained for a standard sample. With a larger,
normal sized aperture, standard spectral data is obtained again
for the calibration sample. A transformation factor, that is a
function of this data and the standardized function, is applied
to spectral data for test samples to effect standardized
information. In another embodiment, the standard sample has
known true spectral data, and the basic sample is omitted. In
either case, the transformation factor is applied to the sample
data in logarithm form, the antilogarithm of the result effects
the standardized information.

Abstract: The aberration measurement method can determine an
aberration from a width of an image of a pattern line on a
resist or from a ratio of light quantities upon measuring an
amount of the aberration of the image formed by an optical
projection system. This method further can measure an
amount of a deviation of a position of the image of the
pattern on the resist so that it can solve laborious work
otherwise required by conventional technology that uses a
complicated microscope such as a scanning-type electronic
microscope. Moreover, the aberration can be determined by
measuring a pitch width of a whole line-and-space pattern
containing wedge-shaped lines or lengths of the wedge-shaped
lines. This does not require to learn the absolute position
of the image because a difference between the amounts of
deviation of the positions of the different pattern images
so that no such complicated microscope is not required. In
addition, as an error of superimposition of the patterns can
be corrected by an image of a comparison pattern, no
laborious attention is any longer paid to alignment of the
patterns, thereby allowing a measurement of the amount of
the aberration with an optical projection system or by other
means at a high speed and with high precision.

Abstract: The energy accumulator has a cylinder and two independently biased pistons with the first operating a brake or clutch and the second for exerting remote controlled a force on the brake. The second piston (14) has a holding mechanism (15) which when the second piston is biased to the first allows the second piston to slide inside the cylinder so that the elastic member (13) is compressed. With a sudden relaxation of force on the second piston away from the first the holder blocks relative movement of the second piston relative to the cylinder. When the second piston is biased towards the first piston and with a following slow relaxation of the force of the second piston away from the first the holder allows the second piston to slide inside the cylinder. The distance between the two pistons in the relaxed state of the elastic member is fixedly determined.

Abstract: In an ink jet printing process, a desired vacuum is applied to the back side of a print
substrate (126) with proper feedback and control.
The optimum vacuum exerts a suction force on
ink dispersed on the front side of the print substrate to accelerate penetration of the ink into
the print substrate and to reduce smear and intercolor bleeding. In addition, the vacuum may
be applied in the ink jet printing process in combination with various other techniques
including heating of the print substrate at any stage of printing process including before,
during, after, and combinations thereof and delaying the time between ink dispersing of two
different inks as in the checkerboard printing method. The employment of proper vacuum,
inks, and printheads (171-174) including partial-width or
full-width array printheads allows a fast speed
multi-color ink jet printing process to be carried out on a print substrate to give high resolution
(e.g.,600 spi) multi-color images with good print quality.
