Abstract: The present invention relates to an organic compound having acetylene group(s), a thin film formed by vacuum deposition polymerization using said organic compound, vacuum deposition polymerization to form said thin film, and an electroluminescence device containing said thin film. More particularly, the present invention relates to an organic compound having at least one acetylene groups, vacuum deposition polymerization in which said organic compound is deposited on the substrate and simultaneously or then polymerized by heat treatment or UV irradiation to form a polymer thin film, and an electroluminescence device using at least one layer of said thin film.

Abstract: A robotic mechanism includes a horizontal base, a vertical support mounted on the base, and a horizontal arm mounted on the vertical support. The vertical support is movable horizontally relative to the base. The arm includes a body which is movable horizontally relative to the vertical support and carries a member which is movable horizontally relative to the body. When the body moves horizontally relative to the vertical support, the member moves horizontally relative to the body to increase the effective rate of movement of the arm.
