  • Patent number: 7667182
    Abstract: A semiconductor photodetector which can obtain spectral sensitivity characteristics close to relative luminous characteristics compared to a conventional semiconductor photodetector is obtained at low cost. The semiconductor photodetector includes a semiconductor light receiving element having high spectral sensitivity in wavelengths in a range from approximately 400 nm to 1,100 nm and an optical transmitting resin where micro particles is dispersed in a transparent resin with an amount which can be obtain photocurrent from the semiconductor light receiving element by transmitting light in wavelengths in the visible light region while blocking light in wavelengths in the infrared region. The semiconductor photodetector further includes a converging structure on a light receiving surface of the semiconductor photodetector.

  • Patent number: 7510886
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor photodetector having spectral sensitivity close to relative luminous characteristics at low cost includes steps of sealing a light receiving surface side of a semiconductor light receiving element having high spectral sensitivity in wavelengths from the visible light region to infrared region with a sealing resin, a semiconductor photodetector is made by preparing dispersion liquid by dispersing micro particles having infrared blocking characteristics not more than 100 nm in toluene, preparing a sealing resin by mixing the dispersion liquid in a transparent resin, sealing the semiconductor light receiving element with the resin, removing toluene in the sealing resin by defoaming and hardening sealing resin thereafter.

  • Patent number: 5204731
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for measuring the coordinates of a survey point. The apparatus uses a reflecting mirror at the survey point, a tachymeter for transmitting light to the reflecting mirror and for receiving light reflected from the reflecting mirror, first calculating means for calculating the coordinate values of two positions of the reflecting mirror, and second calculating means for calculating a coordinate value of the survey point from the coordinate values of the two reflecting mirror positions. In operation, the tachymeter transmits light to the reflecting mirror at the survey point wherein the reflecting mirror is locatable at two points present on a line passing through the survey point and which are separated from the survey point by predetermined distances.
