Abstract: Two stacked bodies, each having a metal layer provided on a first metallic foil with carrier via a first insulating layer, are prepared. The first metallic foil with carrier has a metallic foil provided on a carrier plate via a peeling layer. A joined body is formed by jointing the stacked bodies such that the carrier plates are joined via a joining layer. First conductor patterns are formed by patterning the metal layers on both sides of the joined body. Second metallic foils with carrier are provided to the first conductor patterns of the joined body such that the first conductor patterns are opposed to the metallic foils via second insulating layers. Two substrates are formed by peeling the carrier plates with carrier from the peeling layers. Second conductor patterns which are connected electrically to the first conductor patterns are formed from the metallic foils of the substrate.

Abstract: A pixel having a transistor which controls a current value supplied to a load, a first storage capacitor, a second storage capacitor, and first to fourth switches is included. After the threshold voltage of the transistor is held in the second storage capacitor, a potential in accordance with a video signal is input to the pixel. Voltage obtained by adding a potential in which the potential in accordance with the video signal and the first storage capacitor are capacitively divided to the threshold voltage is held in the second storage capacitor in this manner, so that variation of a current value caused by variations in the threshold voltage of the transistor is suppressed. Thus, desired current can be supplied to the load such as a light-emitting element. In addition, a display device with little deviation from luminance specified by the video signal can be provided.

Abstract: In a coating method, such as a droplet discharge method which requires baking, it is an object of the present invention to reduce the baking temperature at the time of forming a wiring and a conductive film. As a feature of the present invention, a composition, in which nanoparticles of a conductive material are dispersed in a solvent, is discharged using a droplet discharge method, and then dried to vaporize the solvent. Then, pretreatment using active oxygen is performed. After which, baking is then performed, whereby a wiring and a conductive film are formed. By performance of the pretreatment by active oxygen before the baking, a baking temperature at the time of forming the wiring and conductive film can be reduced.

Abstract: When an instruction for emergency stop of an image processing system due to an abnormal state of the image processing system is given, a main process of the image processing system gives, to all of subprocesses and image processing-related equipment which are managed thereby, an instruction for stopping processing which is being executed and forcedly making transition to an initial state, that is, a state at the time of starting (at the time of generating a process). When a normal response to the instruction is received from each of processes and equipment within a specified time, it is determined that the abnormal state of the image processing system has been eliminated and the image processing system has been restored, and a notice that emergency stop and reset (transition to an initial state) of the image processing system (and the image processing-related equipment) has been completed, is given to an operator.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a light emitting device of the next generation optical device having a broad emission property that a width at half maximum of an emission spectrum is large in a wavelength range of visible light and capable of recognizing white light emitting by photoluminescence (PL). In a baking process for baking a pressure molding formed by pressure molding of silica fine particles such as fumed silica, a baking temperature is made as not more than 1000° C., hydroxyl groups of the silica fine particles are sufficiently subjected to dehydration condensation reaction so that the particles becomes transparent, a structural defect generated in the process is held without being relaxed, and thus a silica glass is generated. The silica glass is employed as a fluorescent substance.

Abstract: A color image recorded on an original is photoelectrically read out at a first picture element interval and an image signal representing the color image is obtained. An image composing processing is carried out on the image signal under signal composing conditions determined on the basis of a desired image composition and the processed composite image signal is reproduced as a visible image on a recording material. In such an image reproducing system, a color image on an original is photoelectrically read out at a second picture element interval larger than the first picture element interval and a rough image signal is obtained. Image composing processing is carried out on the rough image signal under signal composing conditions determined on the basis of a desired image composition. The processed rough image signal is reproduced as a visible image on a display and the signal composing conditions are corrected so that the visible image on the display satisfies the desired image composition.

Abstract: A color image recorded on an original is photoelectrically read by use of an area sensor on which an image of the color image is formed through a zoom lens. A color component image signal representing information on a predetermined color component is continuously obtained from an image formed on the area sensor and reproduced as a visible image on a CRT, while two-dimensionally moving the original and zooming the zoom lens. A plurality of color image signals are obtained from an image formed on the area sensor when the original and the zoom lens are in a position where only a desired part of the color image is displayed on the CRT, and reproduced as a visible image.

Abstract: In an image composing apparatus, a desired image, which is selected from first digital images having been stored previously, and a desired image, which is selected from second digital images having been newly acquired, are combined with each other, and a digital composed image of a desired design is thereby obtained. The apparatus comprises several pieces of design defining information for specifying a size of the digital composed image, the desired first digital image, a position on a coordinate system associated with the digital composed image, at which position the desired first digital image is to be located, the desired second digital image, and a position on the coordinate system, at which position the desired second digital image is to be located. A specifying device specifies a single piece of design defining information from several pieces of design defining information.
