  • Patent number: 7492347
    Abstract: This invention provides a touch panel having excellent durability in a high-temperature high-moisture environment and a production method thereof. In a touch panel 1 including a pair of transparent glass substrates 1a and 2a each having a transparent electrode 1b, 2b and so arranged as to oppose each other through a seal portion 3, a thickness of the seal portion 3 is set to be not greater than 8 ?m (exclusive of 0). In this way, moisture permeating through the seal portion 3 and entering a gap between the pair of transparent glass substrates 1a and 2a can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 7247074
    Abstract: An organic EL element is formed having a crystalline CuPc film as a positive hole injection layer and a positive hole transport layer, a luminescent layer, an electron transport layer and an electron injection layer, composed of amorphous organic materials, laminated between a pair of electrodes, wherein the change in the diffraction peak value of the CuPc film appearing with X-ray diffraction, which is produced by heating in the utilization temperature range of the organic EL element, is within ±25% of the diffraction peak value before heating. The organic EL element comprising a crystalline organic material is resistant to current shorts and leaks and exhibits satisfactory luminance properties in the utilization temperature range.

  • Publication number: 20060056060
    Abstract: A lens-barrel device has a movable lens-barrel 10 which holds an imaging lens group 11 and a fixed lens-barrel 20 into which the movable lens-barrel 10 is inserted so as to be movable in an axial direction. The movable lens-barrel 10 has a rear end part 10B including a tapered outer circumferential surface 31, and the fixed lens-barrel 20 has a front end part 20A including a tapered inner circumferential surface 22 that is engaged with the tapered outer circumferential surface 31 of the movable lens-barrel 10. A coiled spring 30 biases the movable lens-barrel 10 forward in the axial direction from the fixed lens-barrel 20. Radial impact forces can sufficiently be absorbed by the coiled spring 30 and by a tapered receiving structure composed of the tapered inner circumferential surface 22 and the tapered outer circumferential surface 31.

  • Publication number: 20040164673
    Abstract: An organic electro luminescence display panel includes a hole transport layer and a luminescent layer disposed on the hole transport layer. The luminescent layer includes at least first and second luminescent layers. The first and second luminescent layers are repeatedly arranged on the hole transport layer so as to be adjacent each other. The first luminescent layer includes a first dopant for emitting a first light having a first wavelength, and the second luminescent layer includes a second dopant for emitting a second light having a second wavelength, which is shorter than the first wavelength. No first dopant is disposed between the hole transport layer and the second luminescent layer.
