  • Publication number: 20240175823
    Abstract: Provided is a method for inspecting surface deformation of a structure which enables easy measurement of the amount of deformation of the surface of a structure protection sheet attached to the surface of a structure such as concrete. The method for inspecting surface deformation of a structure includes: identifying a structure protection sheet attached to a surface of a structure using an individual identification means; digitally photographing a surface of a resin layer on an outermost surface of the structure protection sheet using a digital photography means; measuring a dimension of the surface of the resin layer based on image data obtained in the digital photography using a dimension measuring means; and calculating an amount of deformation of the surface of the resin layer based on data of the measured dimension using a calculation means.

  • Publication number: 20240080185
    Abstract: A result confirmation unit (204) computes a state space probability that is a probability that a verification target device (300) has not correctly prepared a state space having a quantum state stored therein, a Pauli measurement probability that is a probability that the verification target device (300) has not correctly performed Pauli Z measurement and Pauli X measurement, and a magic state probability that is a probability that the verification target device (300) has not generated a magic state of CCZ. Then, using the state space probability, the Pauli measurement probability, and the magic state probability, the result confirmation unit (204) computes a degree of approximation between a quantum state and the magic state of CCZ at the verification target device (300) and measurement accuracies of the Pauli Z measurement and the Pauli X measurement on the quantum state at the verification target device (300).

  • Patent number: 11393658
    Abstract: The invention provides a charged particle beam apparatus capable of observing a sample even when light is emitted from the sample, and a sample observation method using the charged particle beam apparatus. The charged particle beam apparatus includes: a charged particle beam source configured to irradiate a sample with a charged particle beam; a detector configured to detect charged particles emitted from the sample; and a control device configured to generate an image based on an output signal from the detector. The charged particle beam apparatus further includes a filter configured to allow at least a part of the charged particles emitted from the sample to transmit through the filter and configured to shield light emitted from the sample. The filter covers a detection surface of the detector expected from the sample.

  • Publication number: 20160347386
    Abstract: Landform data showing the shape of a ground surface (4) is acquired. A specification position is specified on the ground surface. A relative angle (432; 442) between the virtual plane (51) and the ground surface (4) in the at least one inspection point (433; 443) is calculated based on the landform data when the virtual plane (51) set with the reference point (423) and the at least one inspection point (433; 443) is virtually arranged such that the reference point (423) overlaps with the specification position, and such that the virtual plane (51) becomes parallel to the ground surface in the specification position. A landform determination value indicating a flatness of the landform is calculated based on the relative angle (432; 442).
