Abstract: The present invention relates to an alternating-current power supply device which can improve a power factor of an alternating-current load, realizes low cost and miniaturization, and recovers magnetic energy. The alternating-current power supply device includes a bridge circuit composed of four reverse conducting semiconductor switches, a capacitor that is connected between direct-current terminals of the bridge circuit and absorbs the magnetic energy at the time of cutting off the current, an alternating-current voltage source that is connected to the induction load in series and is inserted between alternating-current terminals of the bridge circuit, and a control circuit that gives a control signal to gates of the respective reverse conducting semiconductor switches and controls on/off states of the respective reverse conducting semiconductor switches.

Abstract: A quick diffusion transfer process of forming color positive images by combining a photosensitive material portion prepared by superposing a photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing an amidrazone which becomes diffusible by an oxidation treatment (Type A) with an intermediate layer containing an amidrazone which does not become diffusible by the oxidation treatment (Type B) and an image-receiving material portion prepared by coating a composition containing an acid resistant coupler capable of forming a dye by the oxidative coupling with an amidrazone, exposing and black-and-white-developing the combined materials, subjecting material to an oxidation treatment in the superposed relationship to form color images, and then removing said photosensitive material portion.
