Abstract: A solid-state imaging device includes a pixel array that is quadrilateral and includes pixels arranged in rows and columns, where each of the pixels accumulates an electric charge resulting from photoelectric conversion. The pixel array includes: a first area including first pixels for obtaining a captured image; and a second area including a second pixel for individually identifying the solid-state imaging device. The second area is provided in the vicinity of at least one corner among four corners of the pixel array, where the vicinity is a range of a predetermined number of pixels away from the at least one corner. The second pixel includes circuit elements or optical elements different from circuit elements or optical elements in each of the first pixels.

Abstract: A household thin paper, that offers flexibility and further difficulty in tearing, comprising a polyester-based compound represented by General Formula (1): wherein R1 is HO— or HO(R2O)a-, R2 is an alkylene group having 2 or 3 carbon atoms, only a single type of R2O or two types of R2O can be attached randomly or as a block, “a” is 1 to 200, all “a”s may be same or different in an identical molecule, b is 2 to 100, and R3 is a hydrogen atom or the like.
