Abstract: Quinoline compound, zinc halogenide complex and zinc complex suited for use in an electro-luminescence (EL) element, a fluorescent material and an ultraviolet absorption material, and a preparation process for these compounds are described. These compounds and a tautomer of the same has a strong luminescent intensity and is used for an EL material, the compound of zinc halogenide complex and zinc complex and a tautomer of the same has absorption at a wave length of 400 nm or less and is used for an ultraviolet absorption material, and further the quinoline compound and a tautomer has a strong luminescent intensity and is used for a fluorescent material. The zinc halogenide complex and zinc complex can be prepared by related preparation processes directly from a quinoline derivative and a phthalimide derivative, or by way of the quinoline compound which is obtained from these derivatives.

Abstract: A high-performance low-cost functional module package handles microwaves or millimeter waves. The package has multilayered dielectric substrates, signal through holes (25, 28) connected to signal conductors that are formed on one of the dielectric substrates, and ground through holes (24, 26, 27, 29) connected to ground conductors that are formed on another of the dielectric substrates. The through holes are formed on side faces of the dielectric substrates and serve as terminals. Each pair of the ground through holes (24 and 26, or 27 and 29) is arranged on opposite sides of a corresponding one (25 or 28) of the signal through holes. The terminals are positioned between parts of the package to be connected to an external circuit board and the signal and ground conductors.

Abstract: A phase modulator having a Gilbert cell mixer can be used in frequency ranges from a microwave frequency band of several GHz to a millimeter wave band of several 10 GHz. Two output signals Vout1, Vout2 from the Gilbert cell mixer are supplied to balanced input terminals of a balanced-to-unbalanced converter, which produces a phase-modulated output signal Vout from an unbalanced output terminal thereof. Even when a differential amplifier comprising FETs Q1, Q3 and a differential amplifier comprising FETs Q2, Q4 do not operate symmetrically, the phase modulator generates phase-modulated output signals that have the same amplitude as each other and are in opposite phase to each other. With the Gilbert cell mixer comprising FETs, the phase modulator can be used in the frequency ranges described above. If the balanced-to-unbalanced converter is in the form of a planar circuit, then the phase modulator may be implemented by an MMIC.

Abstract: A capacitor for use in microwave transistor, comprises a dielectric material layer and conductive layers covering both sides of the surfaces of the dielectric material layer. A plurality of points on the surface of one of the conductive layers are connected by conduction wires. Each of the conductive wires has a length less than .lambda..sub.0 /2.sqroot..epsilon..sub.r, where .lambda..sub.0 is the minimum wavelength of electric signals applied to the capacitor element, and .epsilon..sub.r is the dielectric constant of the dielectric material layer. The middle portion of each of the conductive lines is separated from the above-mentioned one of the conductive layers. The conductive wires prevent the capacitor element from becoming extremely inductive even when the frequency is high.
