Abstract: Use of a carbon dioxide-supplying means for muscle strengthening makes it possible conveniently to strengthen a target muscle within a short period of time merely by allowing the target site to absorb carbon dioxide without loading any mechanical burden on the target muscle. By loading a mechanical burden on the target muscle, the muscle strengthening effect can be further enhanced and an additional effect of promoting the recovery from muscle fatigue can be achieved owing to the mechanical burden. By using the carbon dioxide-supplying means for muscle strengthening as described above, it is also possible to increase cattle meat.

Abstract: To a provide a method of forming a layered film of a silicon nitride film and a silicon oxide film on a glass substrate in a short time without requiring a plurality of film deposition chambers. In a thin film transistor, a layered film including a silicon nitride oxide film (12) is formed between a semiconductor layer (13) and a substrate (11) using the same chamber. The silicon nitride oxide film has a continuously changing composition ration of nitrogen or oxygen. An electric characteristic of the TFT is thus improved.

Abstract: A base film is formed for the TFTs in order to prevent diffusion of impurities from the glass substrate into the active layer, to maintain stability in the characteristics such as Vth and S-value of the TFTs and to maintain enhanced productivity. A film in which the composition ratios of N, O and H are continuously changed by changing the flow rates of H2 and N2O, is used as the base film to prevent a change in the TFT characteristics. The base film can be formed by varying the flow rates of H2 and N2O in the same film-forming chamber to enhance the productivity.
