Abstract: A method of producing a light emitting device includes providing a light emitting element on a base member, the base member including an insulating member and a pair of connection terminals at least on an upper surface thereof. The connection terminals have an exposed portion exposed to outside, with the light emitting element electrically connected to the connection terminals. A covering member is disposed to cover at least a portion of the upper surface of the light emitting element, and a protective layer is disposed to cover at least a portion of the exposed portions of the connection terminals. The covering member is removed, and material from the upper surface side of the base member is supplied to dispose a light-transmissive member on the upper surface of the light emitting element. At least a portion of the light-transmissive member present on the protective layer is then removed.

Abstract: An image forming method of making the process from the start to the end of a recording a line for one pixel in recording means as one drive by staggering the drive start timing of each drive section by a predetermined period of time, wherein the recording means comprises an array in which a plurality of chips having a plurality of recording elements are aligned with a plurality of the drive sections for driving the plurality of recording elements provided therein, when an image is recorded on a recording material moving in comparison to the recording means.

Abstract: While light of R, G and B is switched from one to another and directed to a plurality of light shutter elements made of PLZT, a voltage is applied in accordance with image data between individual electrodes for the respective light shutter elements and a common electrode for all the light shutter elements. While a half-wave voltage Vr for light of R is applied to the individual electrodes, the voltage applied to the common electrode is altered to 0V, Vr-Vg and Vr-Vb in synchronization with switch of the three primary colors so that half-wave voltages for the respective colors can be applied to the light shutter elements.

Abstract: A solid scanning optical writing device writes images using PLZT light shutters, having an electro-optical effect. A PLZT light shutter exhibits hysterisis. If the PLZT light shutter is driven for a long time, the optimal drive voltage for the shutter changes. Therefore, when the cumulative drive time reaches a predetermined time period, the solid scanning optical writing device adjusts the drive voltage based on the light amount output from the light shutter.
