Abstract: A wiring transfer plate for forming wiring to be transferred to another component includes: a base; a plating base material layer formed as a release layer on the base; an insulating layer covering the base with an opening above the plating base material layer; and a projecting structure formed on the insulating layer for forming, in an insulating layer of a component to which the wiring is to be transferred, a via hole for a via electrode.

Abstract: A wiring body disposed above a substrate including a conductor includes: a via electrode provided in a via hole formed in an insulating layer above the substrate and connected to the conductor through the via hole; and wiring provided above the substrate with the insulating layer interposed therebetween. The material or structure of a lower layer in the via electrode and the material or structure of a lower layer in the wiring are different.

Abstract: A wiring body disposed above a substrate including a conductor including: a via electrode provided in a via hole formed in an insulating layer above the substrate and connected to the conductor through the via hole; and wiring provided above the substrate with the insulating layer interposed therebetween. A lower layer included in the via electrode and located above the insulating layer and a lower layer included in the wiring include the same material.

Abstract: A wiring body disposed above a substrate including a conductor includes: a via electrode provided in a via hole formed in an insulating layer above the substrate and connected to the conductor through the via hole; and wiring provided above the substrate with the insulating layer interposed therebetween. The via electrode includes: a seed layer formed along an inner surface of the insulating layer from above the conductor in the via hole; a via electrode body layer formed to be located above the seed layer and fill the via hole; and an adhesion layer formed between the seed layer and the inner surface of the insulating layer in the via hole.

Abstract: A polybenzimidazole production method for producing the polybenzimidazole including a repeating unit represented by the following formula (1): wherein Rf is —SO2—, —O—, —CO—, an alkylene group optionally containing a substituent, or a group represented by the following formula (a): two Xs are each individually a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group; and R1 is a divalent organic group, the production method including a step (1-1) of polymerizing a tetramine compound and a dicarboxylic acid derivative compound to provide a polybenzimidazole precursor polyamide, and a step (1-2) of dehydrocyclizing the polybenzimidazole precursor polyamide.

Abstract: A specimen rack can be used for specimen containers irrespective of kinds thereof and irrespective of whether or not the specimen containers are rotated. An adapter is used for an automatic analyzer and a specimen pre-processing device and is adapted for a specimen rack capable of holding specimen containers. The adapter is provided with a specimen rack mounting section inserted and fixed to an adapter insertion section of a specimen rack body, a specimen container positioning section for holding the specimen containers, and a sleeve.

Abstract: A reagent container used for automatic analysis in an automatic analyzer, which enables reagents to be set with ease and which can increase flexibility in selecting combinations of the reagents. In an automatic analyzer for analyzing components of a biological sample by using two or more kinds of reagents, reagent containers containing the two or more kinds of reagents are jointed into one reagent cassette with the aid of a recess and a projection provided in and on the reagent containers, a reagent holder, bonding, tape binding, etc. Thus, a plurality of reagents used for one analysis item are combined with each other in one cassette corresponding to one analysis item. A reagent container for use in automatic analysis, which is easy to handle and highly flexible in setting of reagents, can be provided.
