Abstract: A thin steel sheet has a steel structure which has a ferrite area fraction of 30% or less, a bainite area fraction of 5% or less, a martensite and tempered martensite area fraction of 70% or more, and a retained austenite area fraction of 2.0% or less and in which the ratio of the dislocation density in the range of 0 ?m to 20 ?m from a surface of the steel sheet to the dislocation density of a through-thickness central portion of the steel sheet is 90% to 110% and the average of the top 10% of the sizes of cementite grains located in a depth of up to 100 ?m from a surface of the steel sheet is 300 nm or less. The maximum camber of the steel sheet sheared to a length of 1 m in a longitudinal direction of the steel sheet is 15 mm or less.

Abstract: There is disclosed an audio recorder that automatically determines, when preset microphones are configured to be detachable and different microphones are attached to the same jacks, whether or not the different microphones are in-house microphones, and automatically determines which of the X-Y technique or the A-B technique is used as the attachment technique. Holders in the audio recorder include a switch structure in which, in cases where the different microphones are attached in place of the preset microphones, a contact is turned on only when the different microphones are in-house microphones. Further, a main body unit includes a processor that, when the contact in the switch structure is turned on, automatically determines which of the X-Y technique or the A-B technique is used based on a voltage value of a certain terminal in a plug of the different microphones.

Abstract: A light emitting apparatus includes a substrate and a laminated structure provided at a substrate surface of the substrate and including a plurality of columnar sections. The columnar sections each include a light emitting layer which has a first end facing the substrate and a second end facing away from the substrate. A first cross section of each of the columnar sections taken along the directions perpendicular to the lamination direction of the laminated structure includes the first end. A second cross section of each of the columnar sections taken along the directions perpendicular to the lamination direction is a cross section that is part of the light emitting layer and located at a position shifted from the first cross section toward the side away from the substrate in the lamination direction. In the plan view viewed in the lamination direction, the position of the center of the first cross section differs from the position of the center of the second cross section.

Abstract: An audio device is provided which distributes via the Internet a telephone talk between a distributer and a viewer, with a simple structure. An audio interface device can be connected to a PC, and distributes via the Internet a sound signal which is input from a microphone along with a BGM by outputting the sound signal to the PC. When a call is made with a caller, the audio interface device branches the sound signal which is input from the microphone into a first sound signal and a second sound signal, and supplies the second sound signal to the caller. Also, the first sound signal, the sound signal from the caller, and the BGM are synthesized and output to the PC, and the telephone talk is distributed via the Internet.
