Abstract: A plasma processing apparatus includes a stage disposed in a processing chamber for mounting a wafer, a plasma generation chamber disposed above the processing chamber for plasma generation using process gas, a plate member having multiple introduction holes, made of a dielectric material, disposed above the stage and between the processing chamber and the plasma generation chamber, and a lamp disposed around the plate member for heating the wafer. The plasma processing apparatus further includes an external IR light source, an emission fiber arranged in the stage, that outputs IR light from the external IR light source toward a wafer bottom, and a light collection fiber for collecting IR light from the wafer. Data obtained using only IR light from the lamp is subtracted from data obtained also using IR light from the external IR light source during heating of the wafer. Thus, a wafer temperature is determined.

Abstract: There are included a vehicle behavior estimating unit (10) that estimates behavior of a vehicle (1); pattern illuminating units (4a to 4d) that illuminate a projection pattern onto ground around the vehicle (1); and an illumination control unit (11). The illumination control unit (11) controls the pattern illuminating units (4a to 4d) to illuminate a projection pattern, on the basis of the behavior of the vehicle (1) estimated by the vehicle behavior estimating unit (10).

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming at least one stripe-shaped protection film over a multilayer film in a scribe region of a semiconductor substrate having a plurality of semiconductor element regions formed therein, the protection film having a thickness larger in a center portion thereof than at an end surface thereof and being made of a member which transmits a laser beam, and removing the multilayer film in the scribe region by irradiating the protection film with a laser beam.

Abstract: The storage body includes a tape formed with recess portions that dip in in a thickness direction formed at intervals along the tape length direction and a cover that is superimposed on the tape and closes off openings of the recess portions. The tape is fixed to the tape by intermediate fixing portions and a pair of side fixing portions. The intermediate fixing portions are formed between the mutually adjacent recess portions. The pair of side fixing portions include overlapping portions and connect portions. The overlapping portions are formed at the two tape width direction sides of the intermediate fixing portions so as to overlap with the intermediate fixing portions along the tape length direction. The connect portions are formed with constant width connecting together the respective overlapping portions disposed in lines along the tape length direction.

Abstract: A table game system includes a dealer's game table for performing a table game. A dealer terminal can input game result information of the table game performed on the dealer's game table. A valuable information reading device is provided at a position distant from the dealer's game table, can receive and eject a storage card, and can read and change valuable information stored in the storage card while receiving the storage card. A player terminal is provided to correspond to the valuable information reading device, and can input betting information through reading the valuable information by the valuable information reading device. An administrative server is connected to each of the dealer terminal, the valuable information reading device, and the player terminal via a communication line, and can receive each of the game result information inputted from the dealer terminal and the betting information inputted from the player terminal.

Abstract: A game machine includes: an entertainment button that can move up and down from a normal operation position to a protruding position; a display part that displays characters related to a content of a game; a character determining part configured to determine a character to be displayed on the display; a stopper plate that holds the entertainment button in the protruding position; and a protruding position detecting part that detects the entertainment button being held in the protruding position by the stopper plate. When the protruding position detecting part detects the entertainment button not being held in the protruding position after having detected the entertainment button being held in the protruding position, the character detecting part recognizes that the entertainment button held in the protruding position is pushed down, and therefore determines a predetermined character. When the character determining part determines the character, the display part displays the determined character.
