  • Publication number: 20210363482
    Abstract: A three-dimensional culture method includes: providing a cell suspension, the cell suspension containing a cell (12C) and a culture medium (14M); providing a solid surface (10S), the solid surface having a plurality of raised portions (10Sp) whose height is not less than 10 nm and not more than 1 mm; attaching a liquid drop (16D) of the cell suspension to the solid surface (10S); and culturing the cell (12C) in the liquid drop (16D) under such conditions that a direction of gravity exerted on the liquid drop (16D) is toward the solid surface (10S).

  • Patent number: 7767476
    Abstract: In the manufacturing method of the array substrate, an under layer having a surface with irregular irregularities is formed on a substrate, a metal film with irregularities profiling the surface of the under layer is formed on the under layer, a colored resist layer is formed on the metal film, the colored resist layer is patterned to form a regularly arranged colored resist pattern, an optical inspection is performed to optically detect a defect of the colored resist pattern, a defect of the colored resist pattern detected by the optical inspection is repaired; and the metal film is etched while using the resist pattern as a mask.

  • Patent number: 7027884
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of production control and a method of manufacturing industrial products. It is an object of the invention to provide a method of production control and a method of manufacturing industrial products which make it possible to set a target processing quantity of a process appropriately set and to improve the throughput of a production line as a whole. A method of production control for a production line including a plurality of processes is provided, in which a target processing quantity Lk for a process Pk is obtained from: Lk=Nk?SKk(Nk>SKk) Lk=0(Nk?SKk) where the processes are represented by Pn (n=1, 2, . . . , k?1, k, . . .
