Abstract: A generator motor includes a flange, stationary-side members, rotor-side members, and latching members. The flange is removably mounted on a first end side in an axial direction. The stationary-side members are fixed on a second end side that is on an opposite side from the first end side in the axial direction. The rotor-side members are configured to move toward the first end side in the axial direction with respect to the stationary-side members in a state in which the flange has been removed. The latching members are configured to restrict relative movement of the flange in the axial direction with respect to the rotor-side members.

Abstract: A film is formed on the discharge parts of the main discharge electrodes. In order to prevent erosion of the discharge parts by the halogen gas contained in the laser gas, a substance that tends not to react with the halogen gas, i.e., a halogen-resistant substance, is used for this film. Furthermore, in order to prevent deformation of the discharge parts by the bombardment and heat of the main discharge, a substance that has a higher hardness than the metal of the main discharge electrodes or a substance that has a higher melting point than the metal of the main discharge electrodes is used for this film. As a result, deterioration of the electrodes can be inhibited, so that a stable laser output can be obtained, and the replacement interval of the electrodes can be extended.

Abstract: To provide a semiconductor wafer having dot marks produced by irradiating laser beam capable of selecting a marking region capable of reading and writing marks in a state in which the marks hardly vanish and the semiconductor wafer is contained in a wafer cassette, inscribing information of an identification number or electric properties in the region and grasping past history by a unit of the wafer in processing steps or semiconductor fabrication steps thereafter, a very small dot mark is formed by irradiating laser having a diameter of 1 through 13 &mgr;m on an inner wall face of a notch (1) formed on an outer peripheral face of a semiconductor wafer (W), particularly on an inclined face of its peripheral edge.

Abstract: A dot mark forming method for obtaining a dot mark includes a liquid crystal mask in which the maximum length of each pixel is 50 to 2,000 &mgr;m and is irradiated with a homogenized laser beam. The energy density of a split laser beam passed through the liquid crystal mask is set to 1.0 to 15.0 J/cm2 and is condensed after the mask by a lens unit so that the maximum length of each dot becomes 1 to 15 &mgr;m. A single dot mask is formed on each laser irradiated point. The dot mark has a protrusion in the center which protrudes upward from the surface of the article to be marked. The length along the surface of the article is 1 to 15 &mgr;m and the height of the protrusion is 0.01 to 5 &mgr;m.
