Abstract: The device includes: a scintillator 200 configured to emit fluorescence by irradiation of radiation, and a photodetector 40 configured to detect the fluorescence emitted from the scintillator 200 as an electrical signal, wherein the scintillator 200 includes a columnar section 20 which is disposed at a rear side of the photodetector 40 in a travel direction of the radiation and at the same time is formed by a group of columnar crystals 20A obtained through columnar growth of crystals of a fluorescent material, and a first non-columnar section 23 which is provided at the photodetector 40 side of the columnar section 20.

Abstract: A radiological image conversion panel 2 is provided with a phosphor 18 containing a fluorescent material that emits fluorescence by radiation exposure, in which the phosphor includes, a columnar section 34 formed by a group of columnar crystals which are obtained through columnar growth of crystals of the fluorescent material, and a non-columnar section 36, the columnar section and the non-columnar section are integrally formed to overlap in a crystal growth direction of the columnar crystals, and a thickness of the non-columnar section along the crystal growth direction is non-uniform in a region of at least a part of the non-columnar section.

Abstract: There is provided a monitor and control apparatus capable of enlarging a volume of a body, while ensuring a space for routing signal lines between a rear face of the body and a bottom surface of a mounting hole. The body 5 has a rear face including: a first face having terminal sections protruded; and a second face protruded backwardly relative to the first face by a stepped portion. An internal space of the body on the second face side is enlarged backwardly more than that on the first face side. The stepped portion is formed in the middle of the rear face of the body in the horizontal direction, which defines a right-half portion as the first face, and a left-half portion as the second face.

Abstract: In a monitoring and control device for use in a remote monitoring and control system, a device housing has a socket located behind a display panel and an external storage medium including a rewritable memory is removably mounted in the socket. The device housing is attached in an attachment hole formed in a wall in a state that the external storage medium is mounted in the socket. A control unit performs a setting operation for a graphic image displayed on the display panel and for the load control in accordance with setting information stored in the external storage medium. The external storage medium is inserted in the socket through an insertion slot formed in a side portion of the device housing, at least a portion of the insertion slot being received in the attachment hole in a state that the device housing is attached to the wall.

Abstract: An infrared sensor switch of the invention comprises an infrared sensor with a detection range, and a controller that uses the sensor to try to detect whether or not a person is present in the detection range and controls an ON or OFF state of a corresponding load unit based on each detection result obtained from the sensor. The switch further comprises a sensor block comprising the sensor, and a housing that is mounted in a wall and retains the block so that the center axis of the detection range can be rotated about a horizontal axis and as well as rotated up to at least 40 degrees downward from a forward direction of 0 degrees.

Abstract: A radiation image detection apparatus comprising a scintillator, which is configured to include columnar crystals and converts radiation into light when the radiation is irradiated thereon, and an optical detector, which converts the light, emitted from the scintillator into an electrical signal, the scintillator and the optical detector being arranged on a support such that the radiation is incident on the optical detector and the scintillator in this order, wherein a columnar crystal area is present at a radiation-incident side of the scintillator, and a non-columnar crystal area is present at a side of the scintillator opposite to the radiation-incident side; and a method for manufacturing the radiation image detection apparatus are provided.
