Abstract: This anode active material for a lithium secondary battery is an aluminum-containing metal in which a non-aluminum phase is dispersed in an aluminum phase, the aluminum-containing metal is a rolled material rolled in one direction, and the non-aluminum phase contains any one or both of B and Ti and satisfies the following (1) and (2) in an image acquired by a method described in the following image acquisition conditions.

Abstract: An electrode structure includes: a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged separately from each other; and a plurality of dielectric layers laminated in a first direction with respect to the plurality of pixel electrodes, in which the plurality of dielectric layers includes: a first dielectric layer that spreads over the plurality of pixel electrodes in a direction intersecting with the first direction; and a second dielectric layer that includes dielectric material having a refractive index higher than that of the first dielectric layer, sandwiches the first dielectric layer together with the plurality of pixel electrodes, and has a slit at a position overlapping space between pixel electrodes adjacent when viewed from the first direction.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a group III nitride semiconductor substrate, that includes: growing a first AlN buffer layer on an Si substrate at a first growth temperature; growing a second AlN buffer layer on the first AlN buffer layer at a second growth temperature higher than the first growth temperature; and growing a group III nitride semiconductor layer on the second AlN buffer layer, wherein an Al raw material and an N raw material are alternately repeatedly fed in the growing the first AlN buffer layer.

Abstract: A tablet has a hole that can retain an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in a side surface. A tablet production device has a second conveyance disk that conveys the tablet while sucking/supporting the side surface of the tablet, medicinal agent supply device ejects the API into the holes and an inkjet head that prints on the front and back surfaces of the tablets. The tablets are conveyed with the side surface thereof sucked by the second conveyance disk, the medicinal agent supply device adds the API into the holes and the inkjet head prints on the front and back surfaces at the same time.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to prevent overdischarge of the secondary battery installed inside an electronic deice and to increase waterproofing ability of the electronic device. In order to attain this object, the electronic device of the present invention comprises a secondary battery, a main circuit which is operated by receiving power supply from the secondary battery, and a switch for ON/OFF controlling power supply from the secondary battery to the main circuit. With such a configuration, the secondary battery can be installed in the electronic device in advance at the electronic device shipping stage and waterproofing ability of the components accommodating the secondary battery can be improved. Furthermore, if the switch is switched off at the electronic device shipping stage, overcharge of the secondary battery can be prevented and the electronic device can be stored for a long time with the secondary battery contained therein.
