Abstract:
To provide a yttria sintered body having an excellent corrosion resistance to halogen-based corrosive gases and plasma and an excellent thermal shock resistance, and adapted for use as a component member in manufacturing apparatuses for semiconductor and liquid crystal devices, particularly in a plasma process apparatus. A yttria sintered body including tungsten of an average particle size of 3 μm or less dispersed in the yttria so that a ratio of the tungsten relative to the yttria is ranging from 1 to 50% in terms of weight, and having an open pore rate of 0.2% or less and a thermal shock resistance by water submersion method of 200° C. or larger.
Abstract:
In an object recognition apparatus, a first division unit and a second division unit each partitions an image into a plurality of regions. A first calculation and a second calculation unit each derives, for each of the plurality of regions partitioned. A first comparison unit and a second comparison unit each compares the derived characteristic quantities in between at least two images, for each of the plurality of regions. A recognition unit recognizes a region where the object is located, based on the comparison result.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A gas diffusion plate has an alumina or an aluminum base material provided with one or more through holes and an yttria body shrink-fitted to one of the through holes and provided with one or more gas discharge holes.
Abstract:
An input unit inputs respectively a plurality of partial images corresponding to a user to be authenticated. An extraction unit extracts feature points of a fingerprint respectively from the plurality of partial images inputted. A generation unit synthesizes the feature points extracted respectively from the plurality of partial images and then generates feature point information for authentication. An acquisition unit acquires reference feature point information. A rotation unit performs phase rotation on the generated authentication feature point information so that a directional component, namely, a phase component, contained in the generated authentication feature point information approaches that contained in the acquired reference feature point information. An authentication unit authenticates the authentication feature point information whose phase has been rotated, based on the reference feature point information.
Abstract:
A first image pickup unit mainly captures the image of whole face. A second image pickup unit mainly captures an image of iris in an eye. A display unit simultaneously displays both an image picked up by the first image pickup unit and an image picked up by the second image pickup unit on divided display regions, and naturally prompts a user to operate in such manner as to include himself/herself within an image pickup range. When the user moves his/her face or an authentication apparatus upon seeing this display, a relative position or direction of the iris and the image pickup device can be set to a desired state.
Abstract:
A metal member-buried ceramics article which can uniformalize adsorption force or adsorption force and distribution of temperature in plane, decrease pollution of a semiconductor wafer, and suppress warping of the whole body is provided. This article has a three layer structure comprising, between an upper layer 2 and a lower layer 3 composed of an AlN sintered body in the form of plate, an intermediate connecting layer 4 having a thickness of 0.5 to 10 mm composed of a sintered body of defatted AlN powder and a metal electrode 5 in contact with the inner surface of the upper layer or lower layer or a metal electrode in contact with the inner surface of the upper layer and a metal electric resistor in contact with the inner surface of the lower layer sandwiched between them, and has means for suppressing a stress remaining in sintering the defatted AlN powder.
Abstract:
A biological information acquisition unit of a biological information processing apparatus acquires biological information. A cue data acquisition unit requests and acquires cue data from the personal authentication apparatus. A personal data generating unit converts the biological information into personal data, or image data. The personal data generating unit further encrypts the personal data based on the cue data. A personal data output unit displays this encrypted personal data on-screen.
Abstract:
A fabric protectant comprising of a carrier and a plant oil selected from the group consisting of horseradish oil, bay oil, basil oil, calamus oil, ginger oil, palmarosa oil, cinnamon oil, ylang-ylang oil, perilla oil, valerian oil, clove oil, star anise oil, milfoil oil, fennel oil, oregano oil and angelica oil, efficaciously controls fabric-related pests. In addition, a method of protecting fabric which comprises dispersing, spraying, spreading and setting an effective amount of the plant oil selected from the group given above is an excellent method to control fabric-related pests.
Abstract:
In construction of a keyboard apparatus in which a plurality of keys are swingably mounted to a fixed key support and change in electric inductance is induced in response to every key operation for adjustment of musical tone control parameters, the change in inductance by an inductance change inducer is detected by at least one planar coil pattern which is arranged such that its mating surface area with the an inductance change inducer should change in correspondence to the key stroke of the key at key operation. Thanks to use of the change in the mating surface area in detection, a linear relationship is obtained between the key stroke and the detection output, which well avoids inter-key variation in detection output for uniform generation of musical tones from different keys.
