Patent EP-1195603-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KAWAI HIDEYUKI
IPC: G02F1/167
Filed: 2001-10-03
Abstract: An electrophoretic device is composed of a pair of electrodes (3, 4) that are
arranged opposite to each other with a prescribed space therebetween, which contains
an electrophoretic dispersion liquid (50) containing electrophoretic particles (5) which
are dispersed in a liquid phase dispersion medium (6). At least one ferroelectric
substance layer (10) is arranged at a prescribed position within the space between the
electrodes, and at least one of the electrodes is made of a transparent material.
Applying a drive voltage between the electrodes, the electrophoretic particles are
deposited on one electrode while ions of reverse polarity move towards another
electrode, thus establishing the polarized state of the electrophoretic dispersion liquid,
which is maintained for a long time due to the residual polarization characteristics of
the ferroelectric substance layer.

Abstract: A fluorine-containing synthetic quartz glass article
is produced by feeding a silica-forming reactant gas,
hydrogen gas, oxygen gas, and optionally, a fluorine
compound gas from a burner to a reaction zone, flame
hydrolyzing the silica-forming reactant gas in the reaction
zone to form fine particles of silica, depositing the silica
particles on a rotatable substrate in the reaction zone to
form a porous silica matrix, heating and vitrifying the
porous silica matrix in a fluorine compound gas-containing
atmosphere to form a synthetic quartz glass ingot, removing
a surface portion from the ingot, and heating and molding
the surface-removed ingot. The article is optically
homogeneous as demonstrated by a high transmittance to
vacuum UV light of less than 200 nm like ArF or F 2  excimer
laser light as well as a low birefringence and a small
refractive index distribution.

Abstract: In a parts mounting apparatus wherein a plurality of feeders
each storing one type of parts are disposed at predetermined
positions and as a mounting head moves, electronic parts unloaded
from the feeders are mounted to a printed circuit board at a
plurality of mounting points, movement time for the mounting head

Abstract: There are provided a shaft (4) rotating around the shaft's center (5)
in a direction (7) in which a blade rotates, and the blade (6) fixed to the shaft
(4) and moving at a rate of movement (VLB), wherein the shaft's center (5)
rotates at a predetermined rate of rotation (VRA) with a small radius of
rotation rapidly, the rate of rotation (VRA) being greater than the rate of
movement (VLB). Thus the blade (6) is pressed against and thus cuts a
substrate (3) and produces chips (8) and the blade (6) is disengaged from the
substrate (3) and the chips (8) thus move in the direction (7) in which the
blade rotates and the chips (8) are thus removed from between the cutting
edge of the blade (6) and the substrate (3). This can provide reduced
working resistance and hence enhanced working efficiency and also prevent
the blade (6) surface from having significant frictional heat. Furthermore,
the generated frictional heat can readily dissipate and the blade (6) can thus
have a long life.
