  • Publication number: 20140063607
    Abstract: A printed material includes a printed material body with a surface, and an optical element disposed on the surface of the printed material body. The optical element includes multiple structures formed at a pitch not longer than the wavelength of visible light. The structures have an aspect ratio of 0.6 or more and 5.0 or less.

  • Publication number: 20130234734
    Abstract: A sensor unit is provided and includes a first substrate, first and second electrodes, an input portion disposed so that a gap exists between the substrate and the input portion, a plurality of first structures disposed in the gap and extending at least partially between the first substrate and the input portion, and a second insulating structure disposed on a side of the first structures that is away from the input portion, or between adjacent first structures. The sensor unit is configured to detect a change in capacitance between the first and second electrodes upon a change in position of the input portion relative to the first substrate.

  • Publication number: 20120212825
    Abstract: An optical element includes a base body having a surface; and a plurality of structures arranged with fine pitches equal to or less than a wavelength of visible light on the surface of the base body, wherein an elastic modulus of a material forming the structure is equal to or greater than 1 MPa and equal to or less than 1200 MPa, an aspect ratio of the structure is equal to or greater than 0.6 and equal to or less than 5, and a coefficient of kinetic friction of the surface of the base body on which the plurality of structures are formed is equal to or less than 0.85.
