Abstract: When a semiconductor film is irradiated with laser light, the semiconductor film is instantaneously melted and expand locally. In order to reduce internal stress generated by this expansion, strain is locally generated in the semiconductor film. Accordingly, a variation is caused among portions with strain and portions without strain, and a variation is caused also by a difference in extent of strain. According to the present invention, after laser light irradiation, an oxide film (referred to as a chemical oxide) is formed by using a solution containing ozone (typically, ozone water) to form an oxide film of 1 to 10 nm in total, and further, a heat treatment for reducing strain of a semiconductor film (a heat treatment of heating the semiconductor film instantaneously to approximately 400 to 1000° C.) is performed.

Abstract: A method for recycling in place an asphalt mixture layer of a paved road continuously, while moving a self-propelled vehicle system, which comprises a step of heating and softening the asphalt mixture layer, a step of scraping and breaking said hot and softened asphalt mixture layer and keeping the softened mixture at a temperature sufficient not to form an aggregate, to prepare an asphalt mixture having a single-grained structure, a sieving step of classifying said asphalt mixture having a single-grained structure into a plurality of grain size groups, a step of designing mix proportions for converting said asphalt mixture to a recycled asphalt mixture by the use of said plurality of grain size groups classified, a step of mixing uniformly said recycled asphalt mixtures having designed mix proportions, and a step of spreading and compacting said recycled asphalt mixtures having been mixed uniformly, to thereby form a recycled asphalt mixtures layer.

Abstract: A main information area 31 capable of recording an information signal and a subsidiary information area 32 for recording subsidiary information that is different from the information signal are divided in one principal plane direction of a substrate, and an information layer for recording the information signal in the main information area 31 is provided also in the subsidiary information area 32, and medium identification information for distinguishing the medium optically is recorded in the information layer of the subsidiary information area 32 without changing the shape of the information layer. As a result, the medium identification information can be recorded in an optical recording medium 1 stably. In particular, the initialization of a phase change type optical recording medium and the recording of the medium identification information can be performed at the same time, so that the production process can be simplified, and the production costs can be reduced.
