  • Patent number: 11662689
    Abstract: A hologram that includes a formation layer and a reflection layer that are laminated. The formation layer has an optical phase modulation structure on a first interface in contact with the reflection layer. When reference light emitted from a point light source enters through a second interface different from the first interface of the formation layer, the entirety or part of an image to be reconstructed by the optical phase modulation structure is reconstructed as spatial information on the point light source side relative to the second interface.

  • Publication number: 20230111374
    Abstract: A multilayer wiring substrate and a module having the multilayer wiring substrate, wherein the multilayer wiring substrate has a capacitor with a capacitance value smaller than that of the conventional one. The substrate includes a core substrate and capacitors installed therein. At least one of the capacitors is a first capacitor which includes a lower electrode, a dielectric layer, and an upper electrode. The lower electrode is located closer to the core substrate than the dielectric layer and the upper electrode are. The upper electrode is located farther away from the core substrate than the dielectric layer and the lower electrode are. The lower electrode is entirely disposed on the core substrate. The upper electrode has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion overlaps the dielectric layer and the lower electrode to serve as the first capacitor. The second portion extends from the first portion.
