Publication number: 20160049897Abstract: A thermal emission source that allows a wider range of material choices than those of conventional techniques, so that light having a desired peak wavelength can easily be obtained. A thermal emission source includes a thermo-optical converter composed of an optical structure in which a refractive index distribution is formed in a member made of an intrinsic semiconductor so as to resonate with light of a shorter wavelength than a wavelength corresponding to a bandgap of the intrinsic semiconductor. When heat is externally supplied to the thermo-optical converter, light having a spectrum in a band of shorter wavelengths than a cutoff wavelength is produced by interband absorption in the intrinsic semiconductor, and light of a resonant wavelength ?r in the wavelength band, the light causing resonance in the optical structure, is selectively intensified and emitted as thermal emission.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2014Publication date: February 18, 2016Inventors: Susumu NODA, Tatsuya SHIBAHARA, Menaka DE ZOYSA, Takashi ASANO, Keisuke KITANO, Katsuyoshi SUZUKI, Takuya INOUE, Kenji ISHIZAKI

Patent number: 8650360Abstract: With a RAID group not configured from a plurality of storage devices, a storage area of a storage device is provided directly to a virtual volume instead of providing a logical volume inside the RAID group to the virtual volume. That is, the storage system, upon receiving a write request with respect to a virtual storage area, first, specifies a data redundancy configuration (the number of data partitions and the number of created parities) and a RAID level set to a virtual volume including this virtual storage area. The storage system selects storage devices in the numbers in accordance with the specified RAID level and redundancy configuration for this virtual storage area. The storage system selects, from among the selected storage devices, a storage area that is not allocated to any virtual storage area, and allocates this storage area to this virtual storage area. The storage system partitions the data and writes this data together with the parity to this allocated storage area.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2013Date of Patent: February 11, 2014Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Taro Ishizaki, Katsuyoshi Suzuki
