  • Patent number: 11606187
    Abstract: One embodiment relates to a transmitting device, a receiving device, and the like for preventing increases in the number of communication links, power consumption, and circuit layout area. The transmitting device includes a high-speed signal generator, a low-speed signal generator, and a signal superimposing unit. The high-speed signal generator generates a high-speed signal having a limited frequency band. The low-speed signal generator generates a low-speed signal having a frequency lower than the frequency band of the high-speed signal. The signal superimposing unit outputs a superimposed signal of the high-speed signal and the low-speed signal. The receiving device includes a signal separator and a recovery unit. The signal separator separates the received signal into the high-speed signal and the low-speed signal. The recovery unit performs frequency tracking based on the separated low-speed signal and performs phase tracking based on the separated high-speed signal.

  • Patent number: 11585795
    Abstract: An optical detection type chemical sensor includes a light source, a detection element and a photodetector. The detection element is constituted of a laminate in which a multilayer film including a chemical detection layer, an optical interference layer, and a half mirror layer is formed on a transparent substrate. At least one of the layers includes a magnetic material. Light from the light source is applied to the detection element under the condition that the light enters inside of the detection element from the rear surface of the transparent substrate on which the laminate is not formed and multiple reflection occurring in the laminate intensifies the magneto-optical effect. A subject is detected by using the photodetector to detect a magneto-optical signal indicating a change in reflected light from the laminate resulting from a change in an optical property resulting from a reaction in the chemical detection layer.
