  • Publication number: 20240162485
    Abstract: A solid electrolyte material comprises a cation A that is an ion conductive species, a cation B that is not an ion conductive species, an anion X, and an anion Z. The cation A is at least one element selected from the group consisting of alkali and alkaline earth metal elements. The cation B is at least one element selected from the group consisting of alkali and alkaline earth metal elements other than the cation A, transition metal elements, and the Groups 13 to 16 elements. The anions X and Z are each independently at least one element selected from the group consisting of the Groups 14 to 17 elements. The anions X and Z constitute an anion framework having a MgCu2-type structure. The molar ratio of the anion X to the anion Z is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 4.

  • Publication number: 20240120531
    Abstract: A solid electrolyte material of the present disclosure includes an ion-conducting species and an anionic framework. The ion-conducting species is at least one element selected from the group consisting of alkali metal elements and alkaline earth metal elements. The anionic framework has a tetrahedral composite structure with no dihedral planes. A battery of the present disclosure includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and an electrolyte layer disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. At least one selected from the group consisting of the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the electrolyte layer includes the solid electrolyte material of the present disclosure.

  • Patent number: 9527306
    Abstract: The effect of air resistance acting on ink drops discharged from nozzles of an ink-jet head is appropriately controlled, for example, by means of a method suitable for a breathable medium, such as a cloth and the like. In this way, for example, high-resolution printing, printing with a great gap distance, and the like is properly implemented.

  • Publication number: 20120182340
    Abstract: To more appropriately carry out generation of a drive waveform signal used in an actuator drive in an inkjet head. An inkjet printer (10) that carries out printing by ejecting ink droplets includes an inkjet head (18) having plural nozzles and plural actuators provided corresponding one to each nozzle, a head control digital signal output unit (108) that outputs a head control digital signal, a digital amplifier (14) that outputs an amplified control signal, which is a signal wherein the head control digital signal has been amplified, a smoothing filter (16) that has plural capacitors and, by smoothing the amplified control signal using at least one portion of the plural capacitors, generates a drive waveform signal, and a capacity specification signal output unit (106) that outputs a capacity specification signal specifying capacitors to be used in smoothing the amplified control signal.
