Abstract: An iridium complex compound denoted by a formula (1) below. An iridium complex compound which have high solvent solubility and can further improve the luminous efficiency and driving life of the device is provided. [In the formula (1), Ir represents an iridium atom. n is 1 or 2. Ar is a structure represented by a formula (2) below. In the formula (2), a dashed line represents a bond of Ar in the formula (1). m is an integer from m=n+1 to n+5. The substituents R and R1 in the formulas (1) and (2) are preferable a hydrogen atom or D.

Abstract: A consumable member includes a core portion formed of the material having a first purity; and a protection portion provided at a portion worn out by plasma in the plasma processing apparatus around the core portion, and formed of the material having a second purity higher than the first purity. The material may be either quartz or ceramic.

Abstract: A developing apparatus includes an electrostatic latent image bearer, a developing sleeve, a case, and an air filter. The case accommodates a two-component developer and the developing sleeve. The air filter is attached to the case. The air filter has a thickness of 2 to 20 mm and has a density gradient with a pressure loss of 2 to 40 Pa at a wind speed of 10 cm/s. The air filter forms an airflow sucked into the case from a gap between the developing sleeve and the case and forms an airflow discharged from the case through the air filter. The two-component developer accommodated in the case contains a magnetic particle a surface of which is coated with a resin layer. The resin layer contains at least one type of chargeable particle.

Abstract: A shoe sole that is less likely to feel push-up on the sole at the time of landing and suppresses pronation to enable quick weight movement in running or jogging, while being widely available in sports requiring weight movement such as golf, tennis, basketball, soccer, and skateboarding, as well as that is lightweight, has good wearing comfort and provides stable walking even in using on the street or walking. The shoe sole includes a shoe sole main body made of a flexible material, and a plate made of a material having a flexural modulus higher than a flexural modulus of the flexible material constituting the shoe sole main body, in which at least two of the plates are included in the shoe sole main body.

Abstract: An FRP molded article molded by hot runner injection molding with a mixture of thermoplastic resin and reinforcing fibers of 0.1-7 mm in average length dispersed in the thermoplastic resin; and a hot runner injection molding method therefore. The molded article is preferable for use as a housing for electronic terminal equipment, cellular phones, etc.
