Abstract: The present technology relates to a communication device capable of improving a system throughput. Provided is a communication device including a control unit that transmits a second signal including a transmission request for a first signal for measuring reception power or propagation loss to another communication device, receives the first signal transmitted from the other communication device, measures the reception power or the propagation loss on the basis of the received first signal, and controls transmission power on the basis of the measured reception power or propagation loss. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a wireless LAN system.

Abstract: The present invention provides a metal foil tube with a thickness of 10 to 100 ?m and a method and apparatus of production of the metal foil tube enabling even an extremely thin metal foil to be reliably finished into a tube, that is, a metal foil tube comprised of a metal foil sheet W with a thickness t of 10 to 100 ?m joined by welding, the method of production of the metal foil tube shaping the metal foil sheet W to form an overlap part G, then welding the facing sides and finishing the weld zone part flat.

Abstract: Carbonaceous particles and carbonaceous fibers whose surfaces are covered with a boron nitride thin film, wherein the atomic concentration of boron C(B), the atomic concentration of carbon C(C) and the atomic concentration of nitrogen C(N) satisfy the following inequalities: 0.05<C(B)/(C(B)+C(C)+C(N))<0.3 0.05<C(N)/(C(B)+C(C)+C(N))<0.3 in the surface region as measured by photoelectron spectroscopy. Also, lithium secondary batteries which employ these carbonaceous particles and carbonaceous fibers as negative electrode active materials.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a cathode ray tube is described. The method comprises the steps of selectively forming a resist layer corresponding to a pattern of a fluorescent material on an inner surface of the panel of a cathode ray tube, and applying a slurry of a light-absorbing material on the entire inner surface of the panel including the resist layer to form a light-absorbing layer. An inorganic pigment slurry is applied over the entire inner surface of the panel to form an inorganic pigment layer on the light-absorbing layer and then subjected to reverse development to selectively remove the resist layer along with the light-absorbing layer and the white pigment layer, thereby forming a matrix pattern. Finally, a fluorescent material is applied to individual removed portions of the matrix pattern to form a fluorescent pattern. Monochromatic or color cathode ray tubes are obtained with an improved luminance and a colorimetric purity by a simple procedure.

Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a color cathode ray tube utilizing an external surface exposure process, a fluorescent slurry to be applied to a panel contains a photosensitive resin composition composed of an aqueous emulsion of polyvinyl compound resin containing a saponified polyvinyl acetate with an addition-condensed photosensitive group as a protective colloid and an aqueous solution of a saponified polyvinyl acetate with an addition-condensed photosensitive group. Accordingly, a resistance of a fluorescent layer formed on the panel against an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide is improved, and an anti-fogging performance of the fluorescent layer is also improved.

Abstract: A method for forming a phosphor pattern on a panel of a cathode ray tube to prevent the peeling of a black matrix from the glass panel when treated with an inversion solvent which involves forming a protective film of a transparent photosensitive material on a glass panel on which a black matrix is formed and using the so-called outer surface exposure method to produce a color cathode ray tube having high definition.
