  • Patent number: 7195669
    Abstract: A silicon single crystal rod (24) is pulled from a silicon melt (13) made molten by a heater (17), and a change in diameter of the silicon single crystal rod every predetermined time is fed back to a pulling speed of the silicon single crystal rod and a temperature of the heater, thereby controlling a diameter of the silicon single crystal rod. A PID control in which a PID constant is changed on a plurality of stages is applied to a method which controls the pulling speed of the silicon single crystal rod so that the silicon single crystal rod has a target diameter and a method which controls a heater temperature so that the silicon single crystal rod has the target temperature. A set pulling speed for the silicon single crystal rod is set so that V/G becomes constant, and an actual pulling speed is accurately controlled so as to match with the set pulling speed, thereby suppressing a fluctuation in diameter of the single crystal rod.

  • Publication number: 20050257886
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for producing an electrical device by electrically and mechanically interconnecting two objects for bonding. When an adhesive layer (25) provided to an LCD (11) and a layer of a second curing agent (28) provided to a TCP (15) are brought into tight contact with each other and thrust in this state to each other under heating, a first curing agent in the adhesive layer (25) and a second curing agent forming the layer of the second curing agent react with each other so that the thermosetting resin in the adhesive layer is polymerized to bond the LCD (11) and the TCP (15) together to produce an electrical device. In case a metal chelate or a metal alcoholate and a silane coupling agent are used as the first and second curing agents, respectively, the silane coupling agent and the metal chelate react with each other to yield cations and, by these cations, the thermosetting resin undergoes cationic polymerization.

  • Publication number: 20050156498
    Abstract: In an electron tube including vibration absorbers for linear members such as filaments, a vibration absorbing means that is made of a vibration absorber with a large vibration absorption effect, has a simple configuration, and is attachable easily to filaments is provided. The vibration absorbing means is formed of a holder 231, a vibration absorber 241, and a getter shielding member 251. These three members are attached to a shielding electrode S overlying the front substrate 111 to dispose the vibration absorber 241 between the holder 231 and getter shielding member 251. The vibration absorber 241 is mounted to slide or rotate between the holder 231 and the getter shielding member 251. The vibration absorber 241 has an aperture 2413 in which the filament is engaged. The bottom (apex) of the aperture 2413 is formed eccentrically. The vibration absorber 241 is in line contact with the shielding electrode S, as shown in FIG. 3(c).

  • Publication number: 20050107494
    Abstract: A latent curing agent (30) of the present invention includes a core member (31) and a capsule (37) covering up the surface of the core member (31). The core member (31) includes a secondary particle (32) and a curing agent (35) retained in a gap (38) of the secondary particle (32). The curing agent (35) is liquid at ambient temperature. When the capsule (37) is destructed so that the curing agent (35) is emitted into an adhesive, the curing agent (35) is mixed with other ingredients in the adhesive. A metal alcoholate which is liquid at ambient temperature or a metal chelate which is liquid at ambient temperature is used as the curing agent (35), while a silane coupling agent is added to the adhesive. A reaction takes place between the curing agent (35) and the silane coupling agent to yield cations. By these cations, the epoxy resin undergoes cation in polymerization.

  • Publication number: 20050096432
    Abstract: Disclosed is a two-component adhesive used for electrically and mechanically interconnecting two objects for bonding. The two-component adhesive is made up by first and second adhesive materials separately containing first and second curing agents, respectively. It is only after reaction of the first and second curing agents that the first and second resin components are polymerized. As long as the two adhesive materials are isolated from each other, the adhesive is not cured. In case a metal chelate or a metal alcoholate is used as the first curing agent and a silane coupling agent is used as the second curing agent, cations as a curing component are isolated to cause cationinc polymerization of the first and second resin components to allow for curing at a lower temperature in a shorter time than in case a conventional adhesive is used.
