Abstract: An optical unit includes an input portion configured to have measurement light having a wavelength extending from an ultraviolet region to a visible region input thereto, an optical system configured to condense the measurement light in a state where a chromatic aberration is caused to occur, and an opening portion configured not to image light having a wavelength in the visible region and to image light having a wavelength in the ultraviolet region of the measurement light having a chromatic aberration having occurred therein.

Abstract: First and second pin groups are each formed from a plurality of pins associated with specific nets. Pins in the first pin group are to be wired to pins in the second pin group according to their associated nets. A candidate selection unit selects a set of pair candidates each specifying a first pair of pins in the first pin group and a second pair of pins in the second pin group. The first and second pairs of pins are associated with the same pair of nets, and their respective distances are within a specified range. A pair determination unit determines which pins in the first and second pin groups are to be wired in pairs, based on the pair candidates selected by the candidate selection unit.

Abstract: A wiring-design aiding method for causing a computer to execute generating paths for buses so that the buses do not cross each other with respect to a wiring area including at least one wiring layer, the paths being represented by corresponding graphics The computer further executes verifying, for each bus, whether wires for nets belonging to the bus are successfully extracted from a component to which the bus is connected; and recording, in the wiring area, graphics representing the nets belonging to a bus for which it is determined in the verification that all the nets belonging to the bus are successfully extracted. The bus-path generation is re-executed with respect to the bus for which it is determined in the verification that at least one of the nets is not successfully extracted.
