Abstract: The present invention provides a harmonic processing circuit capable of miniaturizing a circuit, and an amplifier circuit using this harmonic processing circuit. A first impedance adjustment section and a second impedance adjustment section are provided. The first impedance adjustment section is provided with a coupled distributed constant line CT. The coupled distributed constant line CT receive as input the output of an amplification transistor S, and have a length of ¼ the wavelength (?) of the fundamental wave at the output of the amplification transistor S. Further, the first impedance adjusting section is configured to adjust input impedance with respect to the even harmonics to one of effectively infinity or zero. The first impedance adjusting section and the second impedance adjustment section are configured to adjust input impedance with respect to the odd harmonics to the other of effectively infinity or zero.

Abstract: A displacement detection method detects a displacement from phase singularities before and after the displacement, by specifying the phase singularities based on predetermined elements by acquiring the elements from a phase structure of the phase singularities, and detecting positions of the phase singularities after the displacement based on the elements acquired by specifying of the phase singularity.

Abstract: An excavation technique for a stratum capable of excavating a submerged stratum such as a layer containing an underground resource by using laser irradiation in liquid is provided. In this technique, a laser beam transmitted through laser transmission means 20 is irradiated in liquid 90 in form of a laser beam having a wavelength with high absorptance of the liquid 90 by laser-induced bubble generation means 35, generating a bubble flow 36, thus excavation of a submerged stratum may be carried out by using a laser-induced destruction effect. Moreover, a laser beam 41 having low absorptance of the liquid 90 is irradiated by laser irradiation means 39 and passed through the bubble flow 36, thereby applying a thermal effect to a stratum to destroy rock and excavate the stratum. The destruction effect and the thermal effect also may be cooperatively worked.
