Abstract: The invention provides a process and an apparatus for producing a high quality electronic component by reducing sagging at pattern side walls, which may occur when patterns of a wiring, an electrode, etc. are printed by a screen printing process using an electroconductive paste, an insulation paste, or a semiconductor paste, and reducing a mesh mark on the patterns of a wiring, an electrode, etc., or a full solid surface film, as well as a pattern formation process, by which screen printing can be applied and double face printing can be conducted with the number of process steps less than a conventional process. A pattern is formed by that a pattern is printed on a blanket having a surface comprising polydimethylsiloxane using an electroconductive paste, an insulation paste, or a semiconductor paste by a screen printing process, and the pattern is transferred from the blanket to a printing object.

Abstract: A support tool is mounted on a finger of a subject on whom a sensor is mounted to support acquisition of biological information. A first support is disposed on a nail side of the subject's finger. A second support is disposed on a ventral side of the subject's finger. The relative position of the second support with respect to the first support does not change. A bag is formed with a material softer than the first support and second support, and is disposed along an inner peripheral face of the first support. A ventilation tube forms a ventilation channel communicating with an inside of the bag. The sensor includes a light emission part and a light reception part. The light emission part is disposed between the subject's finger and the bag. The light reception part is disposed between the subject's finger and the second support.

Abstract: A storage device stores first information indicating a first consumption current value during operation of a first partial circuit included in a circuit under design and second information indicating a surplus current value based on an allowable current value of a power source terminal of a second partial circuit and a second consumption current value during operation of the second partial circuit. A design support apparatus compares the surplus current value and the first consumption current value. When determining that the surplus current value is the first consumption current value or greater, the design support apparatus controls a layout apparatus to generate circuit information for a circuit under design where a power-supplying terminal of the second partial circuit and a power source terminal of the first partial circuit are connected.

Abstract: The present invention uses a detecting plate having a transparent substrate on which a single-crystal Si thin film layer, a transparent thin film layer, and a sample capturing layer for capturing a sample are provided. The present invention comprises a light directing mechanism for directing light through said transparent substrate of the detecting plate, and a light detection mechanism for detecting reflected light of the incident light from the detecting plate. The present invention is configured so that a change in absorbance occurs at the sample capturing layer or in the vicinity thereof, when said sample is captured on said sample capturing layer. The wavelengths of said incident light are determined in a range of wavelengths within which said change in absorbance occurs. In this way, the sample is detected by means of measuring a significant change in intensity of the reflected light which is generated when the sample is captured on the sample capturing layer.
