Abstract:
A functional molecular element whose functions can be controlled by an electric field based on a new principle. A Lewis base molecule ( 14 ) with positive permittivity anisotropy or a dipole moment in the major axis direction of the molecule is disposed, via a metal ion ( 3 ) that can act as a Lewis acid, in a pendant-like form on a key molecule ( 2 ) in the form of a line or film that has a conjugated system and exhibits conductivity, thereby forming a functional molecular element 1 that can realize a function where the conformation changes due to the application of an electric field. The conductive key molecule ( 2 ) and the Lewis base molecule ( 14 ) form a complex with the metal ion ( 3 ). When an electric field is applied in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper in FIG. 1 (b), for example, the Lewis base molecule ( 14 ) performs a 90° "neck twisting" movement with the up-down direction in the drawing as the axis. Also, when an electric field is applied in the up-down direction in the drawing as shown in FIG. 1 (c), the Lewis base molecule ( 14 ) performs a "see-saw" movement with the direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper as the axis, thereby switching the conductivity of the conductive key molecule ( 2 ).
Abstract:
When selectively exposing a resist layer with vacuum ultraviolet rays for patterning into a predetermined shape, the present invention utilizes a polymer material constituting the resist layer and having at least one alicycle which is a saturated n-member ring (n is a number of carbon atoms constituting the ring and is an even number) and a fluorine substitution group in at least two carbon atoms constituting the alicycle and arranged alternately. Thus, by improving the light transmission ratio of the resist layer in the vacuum ultraviolet ray wavelength region, it becomes possible to perform a super-fine processing which cannot be obtained in the conventional method.
Abstract:
An optical recording medium is disclosed, in which an optical recording layer (2) and a reflective layer (3) are formed on a transparent substrate. The recording layer (2) contains a first compound having absorption or a recording laser light having a predetermined wavelength, and a second compound having substantially no absorption for a laser light having the predetermined wavelength and decomposable upon heat generation by the laser light in the optical recording layer.

Abstract:
The exposure method of a resist layer involves selectively exposing the resist layer comprising a polymeric material by X-ray, vacuum ultraviolet ray, extreme ultraviolet ray or soft ray, and patterning to a defined shape. The oxygen content ratio and density of the polymeric material satisfies predetermined relations. The polymeric material is provided to a film thickness of more than 250 no, on the resist layer. The density ( rho ) and oxygen content ratio (n0) of the polymeric material satisfies relation (I,II).
