Publication number: 20230400594Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a radiation detector that is capable of preventing deterioration in an SN ratio of a read-out signal. The radiation detector includes a TlBr crystalline body, and a first electrode and a second electrode that have been provided on respective electrode formation surfaces. At least one of the first electrode and the second electrode includes a first layer and a second layer. The first layer formed on the electrode formation surface contains metallic thallium, or a first alloy of metallic thallium and another metal. The second layer on the first layer contains an alloy of a first metal and a second metal. A diffusion coefficient of metallic thallium to a layer comprised of the alloy of the first metal and the second metal is smaller than a diffusion coefficient of metallic thallium to a layer comprised of the second metal.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2021Publication date: December 14, 2023Applicant: HAMAMATSU PHOTONICS K.K.Inventors: Masanori KINPARA, Osamu NAKANE, Ryotaro ISHIKAWA

Patent number: 10033131Abstract: A seal (30) to be mounted into a rear part of a housing 20 and is formed with seal holes (32) configured to allow wires (26) connected to rear parts of terminal fittings (24) to pass therethrough in a liquid-tight manner. The seal (30) includes a body (31) constituting rear areas (32R) of the seal holes (32) and having an outer peripheral lip (37) formed on an outer periphery. An area between inner peripheries of the seal holes (32) and the outer peripheral lip (37) defines a solid resilient portion (39). Following portions (40) project forwardly of the outer peripheral lip (37) from a front surface of the body (31). The following portions (40) constitute front areas (32F) of the seal holes (32) and are resiliently deformable in directions intersecting a penetrating direction of the seal holes (32).Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2017Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: SUMITOMO WIRING SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventors: Yoshihiro Uchiyama, Ryotaro Ishikawa

Patent number: 8784141Abstract: A connector (A) includes a partition (40) for partitioning an insertion hole (35) for a tab (15) and a mold removal space (39) for a locking lance (37). A retainer (44) is pivoted between a partial locking position and a full locking position. A lock (43) restricts a displacement of the retainer (44). A retracted portion (50) is formed in an area (41R) of a facing wall (41) behind the retainer (44) to mold the lock (43) and retracted from an insertion path for a male terminal fitting (10) as compared with an area (41F) of the facing wall (41) before the retainer (44). The retainer (44) includes a restriction (48) for restricting the inclination of the male terminal fitting (10) by being so displaced, at the partial locking position, that a rear end of the male terminal fitting (10) moves toward the retracted portion (50).Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2012Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Assignee: Sumitomo Wiring Systems, Ltd.Inventors: Ryotaro Ishikawa, Yutaka Noro
