Abstract: A field-effect transistor includes a Ga2O3-based semiconductor layer, a source region and a drain region that are formed inside the Ga2O3-based semiconductor layer, a gate electrode that is formed, via a gate insulating film, on a channel region as the Ga2O3-based semiconductor layer between the source region and the drain region, a source electrode connected to the source region, and a drain electrode connected to the drain region. An interface charge including a negative charge is formed between the gate electrode and the channel region, and a gate threshold voltage is not less than 4.5V.

Abstract: A technique for swinging swing arms stably by reducing vibrations of bearing units due to resonance in rolling bearings is provided. A pivot assembly bearing device 1 includes a shaft 10 extending in an axis Y1 direction, and an upper bearing unit 20 and a lower bearing unit 60 that are provided along the axis Y1 direction of the shaft 10. A natural frequency of the upper bearing unit 20 and a natural frequency of the lower bearing unit 60 in the axis Y1 direction of the shaft 10 differ from each other.

Abstract: A bearing device includes an annular hub cap facing an inner ring. An inner annular surface of the hub cap abuts a part of one end surface of the inner ring which extends from an inner peripheral edge to an intermediate position located on the way from the inner peripheral edge to an outer peripheral edge. An annular adhesive retaining portion is formed between the area extending from the intermediate position to the outer peripheral edge of one end surface and at least an inclined annular surface of the hub cap.

Abstract: A pivot assembly bearing includes: a sleeve, a shaft inserted into the sleeve, a pair of rolling bearings disposed between the sleeve and the shaft such that the rolling bearings are separated apart from each other in an axial direction. The rolling bearings include an inner ring fixed to the shaft, an outer ring fixed to the sleeve, and a rolling element provided between the inner ring and the outer ring. In at least one of the rolling bearings, a first sealing member contacts an end face of the outer ring facing an outer side in the axial direction. Thus, a first labyrinth gap between the first sealing member and an end face of the inner ring facing the outer side in the axial direction, and a second labyrinth gap between the first sealing member and the shaft are formed.

Abstract: An inverted microscope having a variable stage position, a compact size, excellent operability, and low cost. The inverted microscope includes a detachable stage unit to support a stage on which a specimen is positioned and to support an objective lens facing the specimen. A microscope housing supports the stage, and includes an imaging lens positioned to image a parallel light beam from the objective lens. An observation unit is positioned on the microscope housing to observe the image formed by the imaging lens. An illumination unit, positioned between the microscope housing and the stage unit, irradiates light having a predetermined wavelength toward the specimen, and includes a fluorescent light unit. The illumination unit is detachably mounted to the microscope housing, and the stage unit is detachably mounted to the illumination unit, and a height of the stage with respect to the microscope housing is variable.

Abstract: A valve controller which controls the opening degree of an electrically driven expansion valve mounted in the refrigerating cycle, in accordance with a difference between a refrigerant saturation temperature of an outdoor heat exchanger detected with a first temperature sensor and a refrigerant temperature at the suction port of a compressor detected with a second temperature sensor. A sensor error correcting unit is provided whereby a detected temperature error is calculated in accordance with the outputs of the first and second temperature sensors exposed in an atmospheric air having a specific temperature, and in accordance with the detected temperature error, a difference between the refrigerant saturation temperature and the refrigerant temperature at the suction port of the compressor is corrected.
