The sensor shifting actuator include a first movable body in which an image sensor having an imaging surface is disposed, a fixed body in which the first movable body is disposed to be movable in first and second directions parallel to the imaging surface, a driving unit configured to provide a driving force to the first movable body, and a position sensing unit configured to sense a position of the first movable body and including a sensing coil disposed on any one of the first movable body and the fixed body and a sensing yoke unit disposed on the other thereof, wherein the sensing yoke unit includes a plurality of sensing yokes spaced apart from each other in a direction orthogonal to the imaging surface, and each sensing yoke is configured to change in width in a moving direction of the first movable body.

Abstract: Disclosed is a formulation comprising a copolymer comprising one or more bifunctional high refractive index first monomers comprising a high refractive index aromatic core and further comprising one or more UV- or thermally-reactive groups (A) and one or more second monomers comprising a high refractive index core and further comprising one or more groups capable of reacting to increase the solubility of the copolymer in aqueous media (B), and one or more solvents. The formulation may optionally contain additional components. Further disclosed are methods for forming optical thin films from the formulation and optical devices containing the optical thin films.

Abstract: Gas sensors are provided. The gas sensors comprise: a substrate; a plurality of electrodes on the substrate; and a polymeric sensing layer on the substrate for adsorbing a gas-phase analyte. The adsorption of the analyte is effective to change a property of the gas sensor that results in a change in an output signal from the gas sensor. The polymeric sensing layer comprises a polymer chosen from substituted or unsubstituted polyarylenes comprising the reaction product of monomers comprising a first monomer comprising an aromatic acetylene group and a second monomer comprising two or more cyclopentadienone groups, or a cured product of the reaction product. The gas sensors and methods of using such sensors find particular applicability in the sensing of gas-phase organic analytes.

Abstract: An outer ring for a wheel bearing is provided. The outer ring is designed to attain optimal structural strength and thus prolong a service life of the bearing by establishing theory foundation for dimensions of a supporting end formed on an outer side of an outer diameter surface of the outer ring and a ring groove in which the snap ring is installed which is formed on an inner side of the outer diameter surface and applying optimal dimensions within an allowable threshold range to the supporting end and the ring groove. In addition, the outer ring is also designed to improve space usability of the outer ring by attaining an installing space of a seal member installed on the bearing through an extending end formed on an outer front end surface of the outer ring and improve an assembling property of a snap ring by making a portion of the outer ring from a ring groove to an inner front end as a step surface whose diameter is less than an overall diameter of the outer ring.
