Abstract: A machining condition searching method includes: generating a machining condition to be set in a machining device; collecting a machining state; collecting the machining result performed under the machining condition; calculating an evaluation value of the machining on the basis of the machining result; constructing an evaluation value prediction model predicting, on the basis of the machining condition, the machining state, and the evaluation value, an evaluation value corresponding to the machining condition that has not been tried; and constructing the evaluation value prediction model on the basis of a change degree in the relationship between the machining condition and the evaluation value, and performs weighting based on the machining state on the evaluation value prediction model. The machining condition to be tried next is generated using a predictive value of the evaluation value. Each of the above processes is repeatedly performed until it is determined to end a search.

Abstract: Provided is a polyester adhesive composition containing a polyester resin (A) and a polyepoxy compound (B), wherein the polyester resin (A) contains structural units derived from a polyvalent carboxylic acid, structural units derived from a polyhydric alcohol, and wherein the structural units derived from the polyvalent carboxylic acid contain a specific amount of structural units derived from a cyclic structure, and the structural units derived from the polyhydric alcohol contain structural units derived from an aliphatic polyhydric alcohol. The polyester resin (A) also has a specific acid value and a specific glass transition temperature.

Abstract: A resist film structure is provided, which allows a resist layer to have improved photosensitivity to EUV or electron beams without changing the photosensitivity of the resist material itself. A metal layer 1 with a thickness as small as a nanometer level is provided on a resist polymer layer 2 formed on a substrate 3. When the resist layer in this structure is exposed to light, the metal layer 1 produces a surface plasmon effect to enhance the irradiation to the resist film, so that the photosensitivity of the resist film is improved.

Abstract: A cathode ray tube device has a neck, a funnel, a face panel, an inner conductive film disposed on an inner surface of the funnel, a first outer conductive film disposed on an outer surface of the funnel, and a deflection yoke. The inner conductive film and the first outer conductive film act as a capacitor. A second outer conductive film for electric field shielding is disposed on an outer surface of the funnel. The second conductive film is disposed between the deflection yoke and the first outer conductive film in such a way that the second outer conductive film is separated from the deflection yoke and is not covered by the deflection yoke.

Abstract: A convergence correcting device movable in the direction of horizontal deflection axis comprising a first pair of magnetic pieces disposed at a specific interval on both sides of electron beams on the horizontal deflection axis, and a second pair of magnetic pieces disposed at a specific interval on both sides of the electron beams on a vertical deflection axis. These magnetic pieces are disposed between a deflection yoke and a subsidiary yoke. In this simple structure, the YV axis deviation due to correction of XH axis deviation can be canceled, and by setting the intervals of the first and second pair of magnetic pieces at proper values, the XH axis deviation can be easily corrected to a practically ignorable level without causing YV axis deviation.
