Abstract: A light source apparatus includes a light source unit in which a light source and a light source supporting member having elasticity in an optical axis direction are coupled together, and a collimating lens base member on which a collimating lens is supported. An optical axis direction adjusting member is positioned between the light source unit and the collimating lens base member. A position of the light source unit can be adjusted within a plane approximately perpendicular to the optical axis, and the light source unit can thereafter be secured relative to the collimating lens base member via the light source supporting member. The optical axis direction adjusting member is movable in the optical axis direction, and is disposed such that by its movement it causes the light source supporting member to deform against the elasticity of the light source supporting member, thereby allowing an adjustment of a position of the light source with respect to the collimating lens in the optical axis direction.

Abstract: An organic semiconductor film that can be used for an electron device, for example, particularly can be used for organic TFTs so as to allow the TFTs to have advanced performance, is provided and a manufacturing method therefor is provided. For instance, the organic semiconductor film contains the organic conductive high polymer compound such as polythiophene represented by the below formula (I). The organic semiconductor film is formed by forming a solution in a thin film form, the solution showing two or more spectral peaks (spectral state B) in a wavelength region of 300 to 800 nm by measurement using a visible and ultraviolet absorption spectral method; and drying the solution formed in the thin film form. Alternatively, the organic semiconductor film can be formed by the method in which the organic conductive high polymer compound has a molecular weight distribution range Mw/Mn from 1.00 to 1.85, obtained by dividing a weight-average molecular weight Mw by a number-average molecular weight Mn.

Abstract: The present invention holds the source document feeding direction downstream edge of a printed sheet ejected above a source document feed tray by means of a top ejection platform functioning as a printed sheet holding section in an area apart from source document feed rollers functioning as a source document feeding section. As a result, a printed sheet ejected onto top ejection platform is not fed automatically by source document feed rollers. Therefore, a printed sheet that has undergone image formation can be ejected without obstruction above source document feed tray of an automatic document feeder, checking and removal of a printed sheet are facilitated, and convenience is improved.

Abstract: A patterned, multi-layered thin film structure is patterned using ultra-fast lasers and absorption spectroscopy without damaging underlying layers of the layered structure. The structure is made by selecting ablatable layers based on their thermal, strength and absorption spectra and by using an ultra-fast laser programmed with the appropriate wavelength (?), pulse width (?), spectral width (??), spot size, bite size and fluence. The end structure may have features (such as vias, insulating areas, or inkjet printed areas) patterned in the last (top) layer applied or at deeper layers within the layered structure, and can be used as components of organic light emitting didoes (OLEDs) and organic thin film transistors (OTFTs). The method of the present invention includes determining the product's specifications, providing a substrate, selecting a layer, applying the layer, patterning the layer and determining if more layers need to be added to the multi-layered thin film structure.

Abstract: A first line head 1 and a second line head 2 are arranged in a scanning direction X. In each of the line heads 1 and 2, actuator blocks 40 are arranged at a constant interval in a head longitudinal direction Y so as to be spaced apart from one another. The actuator block 40 of the second line head 2 is located between the actuator blocks 40 and 40 of the first line head 1 with respect to the head longitudinal direction Y. The actuator block 40 of the first line head 1 and the actuator block 40 of the second line head 2 partially overlap with each other with respect to the head longitudinal direction Y.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus that enables a source document ejected after image information reading is completed, and a printed sheet on which an image has been formed based on the image information, to be removed easily with one hand while maintaining their segregated state. In this apparatus, a source document feed tray holds a source document. A source document ejection tray is positioned below source document feed tray, and holds an ejected source document. A sheet ejection tray is positioned above source document feed tray, and holds a printed sheet ejected onto the uppermost part of the main body of the apparatus. Source document ejection rollers eject a source document into source document ejection tray so that the ejection direction downstream edge of source document ejected into source document ejection tray faces the ejection direction downstream-side position of source document ejection tray rather than the source document feeding direction upstream edge of source document feed tray.

Abstract: In manual copying mode, recording paper that has undergone image formation passes along a main body ejection path and is ejected onto a main body ejection platform of a main body ejection section by main body ejection rollers, and in automatic copying mode and external input print mode, recording paper that has undergone image formation passes along a top ejection path and is ejected onto a top ejection platform of a top ejection section by top ejection rollers. By thus having recording paper with a high image forming frequency that has undergone image formation by means of the aforementioned automatic copying mode or external input print mode ejected into top ejection section positioned on the upper part of the main body of the apparatus by means of top ejection mode, checking and removal of recording paper are facilitated and convenience is improved.

Abstract: A plurality of actuator blocks having a vibration plate, a common electrode, a piezoelectric element, and a separate electrode, are produced, and the plurality of actuator blocks are transferred onto a single pressure chamber plate. The actuator blocks are arranged in a zigzag pattern so that adjacent actuator blocks are spaced apart from each other in the scanning direction while partially overlapping with each other with respect to the head width direction.

Abstract: First to third recording units 11-13, each of which is made up of a recording part 2 for recording an image on a record sheet 4 and a feeding part 3 for feeding a record sheet 4 to the recording part 2, are driven concurrently to share the processing of recording image data ranging over two or more record sheets 4. A delivering part 5 loads record sheets 4, which have been image recorded in the recording unit 11-13, onto specific bins 51-56 so that the record sheets 4 are stacked together on top of one another in a specific sequence.
