Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a light-shielding film, a plurality of subpixels on the first substrate, a first electrode for each of the subpixels, a second electrode for each of the subpixels, and a color filter formed on the second substrate for each of the subpixels. The second electrodes each include a plurality of linear portions, wherein the subpixels include first and second subpixels that are adjacent to each other. A signal line forms between the first subpixel and second subpixel, and the color filter is formed across the signal line in the same color, and the second electrodes of the first and second subpixels are formed separately, and the second electrode of the first subpixel is disposed to an area of the second subpixel beyond the signal line.

Abstract: In a service system of an air conditioner connected through a network to a monitoring center, the air conditioner receives radio wave transmitted from a GPS satellite to transmit information of the received radio wave and a manufacturer's serial number on the air conditioner to the monitoring center and the monitoring center performs service of the air conditioner on the basis of the received information and the serial number. The service system of the air conditioner can perform service, update or renewal, maintenance and the like of an air conditioner more correctly and exactly and attain speedup thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed is a thin-layer solar cell array system and a method for producing the same, having placed over a carrier substrate of plane design, a solar cell layer which is provided with at least one n-type conducting semiconductor zone (emitter) and at least one p-type conducting semiconductor zone (base) as well as a first and a second contact electrode, each of different electric polarity, which are each electrically connected to the emitter respectively to the base.
