Abstract: Quenchers of the related art do not have a quenching ability high enough to sufficiently inhibit the emission of fluorescence from fluorescence compounds. Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a quencher which can sufficiently quench the fluorescence from fluorescent compounds including xanthene-based dyes. The present invention relates to a quencher formed of a compound represented by the following general formula (1), and the like.

Abstract: A reverse photochromic compound of the related art has difficulty in sensing light with a wavelength of 600 nm or greater in a visible light region which has been used for medical applications. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a reverse photochromic compound and a polymer which have a high sensitivity to light having a wavelength of 600 nm or greater. The present invention relates to a compound and the like represented by the following general formula (1).

Abstract: A liquid crystal device includes a liquid crystal panel; light sources; a light guide plate, opposed to the light sources, for guiding light emitted from the light sources to the liquid crystal panel; a flexible printed circuit board electrically connected to the liquid crystal panel; and a housing accommodating the liquid crystal panel and the light guide plate. The flexible printed circuit board is fixed to the rear face of the light guide plate in such a state that the flexible printed circuit board is curved. The liquid crystal panel is fixed to the housing with a light-shielding double-faced tape placed outside a display region including a sub-region containing the light sources. The light sources are spaced from the light-shielding double-faced tape with an adhesion-preventing member disposed therebetween or adhesion-preventing treatment is performed.
