  • Electric near-field probe, control system for same, and piezoelectric crystal detector
    Patent number: 9891338
    Abstract: Provided is a compact and lightweight electric field probe which has a transmitting/receiving function whereby piezoelectric crystals can be excited through the application of an alternating current electric field thereto, and piezoelectric effect signals can be detected with sufficient sensitivity. Also provided are a control system for the same, and a piezoelectric crystal detector. The electric near-field probe is provided with a capacitor, in which the space between two metal plates that are positioned parallel to each other is filled by a conductor or air, and a series resonance circuit, which has a prescribed resonance frequency and is connected in series to an inverter that is formed by winding a conductive wire around a toroidal core.

  • Molecular Device and Manufacturing Method for the Same
    Publication number: 20080119008
    Abstract: A molecular device of the present invention is arranged so that a self-organizing monomolecular layer is formed on an oxide layer made of an oxide of a substrate by being chemically bonded with the surface of the oxide layer, and nano structures are formed on the monomolecular film. With this arrangement, the present invention provides a molecular device which causes less interaction between the substrate and nanostructures arranged on the substrate, thereby realizing easier control of orientation of nano structures on the substrate. The present invention also provides a manufacturing method of the molecular device.
