Abstract: A light-emitting module according to an embodiment includes a light-emitting element which emits light and a substrate on which the light-emitting element is mounted. Further, the light-emitting module according to the embodiment includes a lens, which is formed from a material containing an aliphatic hydrocarbon organic compound having a cyclic structure in the main backbone, and is disposed on the substrate so as to cover the light-emitting element, and in which on a portion irradiated with light emitted by the light-emitting element, the maximum illuminance of the light is 100,000 lx or more and 300,000 lx or less or the maximum energy per unit area of the light is 30,000 ?W/cm2 or more and 90,000 ?W/cm2 or less.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a photocatalyst material having a higher catalyst effect than conventional photocatalyst materials. The photocatalyst material of the invention contains, as its major component, a tungsten oxide powder excited by a light source which emits light having a wavelength of 430 to 500 nm, the photocatalyst material having a decomposition ability of 50% or more wherein the decomposition ability is given by the following equation based on the following test: [Test for decomposition ability]: 1 g of a tungsten oxide powder and 20 ppm of acetaldehyde (amount A) are poured into a 3-liter glass container, and acetaldehyde (amount B) is measured after light having a peak wavelength of 460 nm±10 nm is irradiated to the mixture for 2 hours to measure the decomposition ability (%): Decomposition ability (%)=[(acetaldehyde amount A?acetaldehyde amount B)/acetaldehyde amount A]×100.

Abstract: The present invention provides an infrared ray detector capable of facilitating design of a compound lens and capable of reliably detecting a heat source in a stabilized state, which is provided with a light receiving portion for detecting infrared ray energies, and a compound lens having a plurality of lens portions to condense an infrared ray in a predetermined detection area to the light receiving portion, wherein individual detection areas which condense infrared rays to the light receiving portion through the respective lens portions of the compound lens exist in the entire range of a predetermined detection area, and at least a part of the individual detection areas overlap each other.
