Abstract:
Disclosed is a relative angle detection device for detecting a relative angle between a first rotary shaft and a second rotary shaft, the relative angle detection device being provided with a first magnetic field sensing unit which outputs a value according to a magnetic field of a magnet, a second magnetic field sensing unit which outputs a value according to the magnetic field of the magnet and outputs a value different from the output value of the first magnetic field sensing unit even if being placed in the same magnetic field as that of the first magnetic field sensing unit, a correction unit which corrects one output value out of the output value of the first magnetic field sensing unit and the output value of the second magnetic field sensing unit in accordance with an amplitude ratio between magnetic field components orthogonal to each other in the magnetic field of the magnet, and a computing unit which computes the relative angle between the first rotary shaft and the second rotary shaft on the basis of the one output value corrected by the correction unit and the other output value different from the one output value. Consequently, a technique capable of detecting the relative rotation angle with high accuracy is provided even if magnitudes of amplitudes of magnetic field components orthogonal to each other in the magnetically sensitive surface of the magnetic field sensing unit are different from each other.

Provided is an ion source emitter that does not cause significant extraction voltage changes even when an apex portion of the emitter is repeatedly regenerated. The emitter has a shape of a triangular pyramid with the single atom at the apex. An apex portion of the emitter is substantially shaped like a hexagon when viewed from the apex side.
Abstract:
By using a composite material that is produced from an acid salt of an oxo acid compound and an azole compound, a proton conductor with good proton conductivity properties under medium temperature, non-humidified conditions may be achieved. The composite material may be produced by mechanical milling of the acid salt of the oxo acid compound and the azole compound using a planetary ball mill The structure of the composite material obtained by the mixing processing may be different from that of a mixture of the acid salt of the oxo acid compound and the azole compound. Therefore, it may be possible to produce the proton conductor that has good proton conductivity properties under medium temperature, non-humidified conditions with a simple method of mechanical mixing.

Abstract:
An image processing apparatus is provided in which the accuracy of measurement of an amount of toner adhesion is improved by forming a toner image pattern according to a detection scheme for the amount of toner adhesion. In the image processing apparatus, a toner image pattern control unit 215 determines a detection scheme for the amount of toner adhesion of a toner image based on attribute information of the toner image, decides a toner image pattern according to the results of that determination, and forms that decided toner image pattern. A toner adhesion amount calculation unit 605 measures the amount of toner adhesion for the toner image pattern formed by the toner image pattern control unit 215.
Abstract:
In a chart for color calibration which is output and calorimetrically measured for color calibration of a printer device, respective charts of a color chart are arranged obliquely with respect to the alignment direction of grid points in a printer device color space or in a state that a plane in which charts are arranged on grid points and a plane in which charts are not arranged on grid points are alternately combined, on a color space of the color chart. With this configuration, a novel chart for color calibration which assures higher accuracy despite having a smaller number of steps (number of charts), and an image processing method and image processing apparatus using the chart are provided.

For the sake of realizing high throughput and high processing position accuracy in an ion beam apparatus, two kinds of ion beams for processing are prepared of which one is a focusing ion beam for high image resolution and an edge processing ion beam of large beam current for permitting a sectional edge portion to be processed sharply, whereby high processing position accuracy can be ensured even with a large current ion beam.
Abstract:
An explosion-proof apparatus includes a pressure resistant explosion-proof case, heater, manifold, and analyzer unit. The heater is disposed in the pressure resistant explosion-proof case. The manifold is heated by the heater in the pressure resistant explosion-proof case and supplies heat from the heater to an outside of the pressure resistant explosion-proof case by heat conduction. The analyzer unit is disposed outside the pressure resistant explosion-proof case in contact with the manifold, and is heated by heat supplied from the manifold.
