  • Publication number: 20240126178
    Abstract: An exposure apparatus includes a substrate holder configured to hold a substrate and move, a module including a spatial light modulator having light modulation elements that are two-dimensionally arranged, an illumination unit irradiating the spatial light modulator with illumination lights, and a projection unit guiding the illumination light from the light modulation elements to respective light irradiation areas that are two-dimensionally arranged on the substrate in first and second directions, and a control unit configured to drive the substrate holder in a scanning direction, wherein the light modulation elements are two-dimensionally arranged to be inclined at a predetermined angle ? (0°<?<90°) with respect to the scanning direction and a non-scanning direction orthogonal to the scanning direction, and when a predetermined region of the substrate is exposed, the control unit scans the substrate holder at such a speed that spot positions are arranged in a staggered arrangement.

  • Patent number: 11199663
    Abstract: A plurality of bandpass filters (2) are arranged side by side in a row on a fixed surface (1a) of a glass block (1) and fixed using an adhesive (3). Each bandpass filter (2) includes a coating film (6) for transmitting or reflecting light depending on a wavelength. Each bandpass filter (2) includes a first surface (2a) fixed to the fixed surface (1a), and a second surface (2b) opposite to the first surface (2a) and having a width larger than that of the first surface (2a). Opposing side surfaces of the adjacent bandpass filters (2) include a first portion (2c) on the first surface (2a) side and a second portion (2d) on the second surface (2b) side. A spacing between the first portions (2c) of the adjacent bandpass filters (2) is wider than a spacing between the second portions (2d) of the adjacent bandpass filters (2).

  • Patent number: 7917406
    Abstract: Introduction service is supported, in order to activate and facilitate community activities. A community management center 1 searches for offered-service information that matches at least partly with an application designated by a coordinator terminal 2, and selects participants specified by detected offered-service information, as introduction candidates. Then, an introduction candidate list that describes private information, desired terms, and possessed value of ticket for each of the selected introduction candidates is displayed on a coordinator terminal 2. When the coordinator terminal 2 selects a participant to be introduced to the applicant, out of the introduction candidates described in the introduction candidate list, then, the private information and the desired terms of selected participant is displayed on a participant terminal 3 of the applicant.

  • Publication number: 20030167183
    Abstract: An introduction service is supported to activate and smoothen a community activity and a business activity. A coordinator terminal 2 retrieves the provided service information matching the site providing offer of the business activity designated by a coordinator, and each of participants specified with the detected information is selected as an introduced candidate for the site providing offer. There is displayed an introduced candidate list in which the personal information and desire of each introduced candidate are described.

  • Patent number: 5585336
    Abstract: A grease composition for a tripod type constant velocity joint, which includes a base oil, a urea compound as a thickening agent, and not more than 10% by weight of at least one of (A) a molybdenum dialkyldithiocarbamate and (B) a molybdenum dialkyldithiophosphate or diaryldithiophosphate, in which the base oil has a kinematic viscosity of from 3.0 to 7.5 mm.sup.2 /sec at 100.degree. C. The grease composition applied to a tripod type constant velocity joint reduces the induced thrust force and thereby suppresses vibration, such as a shudder of a car body upon starting off and acceleration.

  • Patent number: 4281797
    Abstract: A fuel injection device adapted to control the amount of injection by the opening time and opening area of a gate which is disposed in a fuel feed passage and which is controlled in connection with the engine rpm and the amount of suction air. The fuel injection device is characterized in that a choke is disposed between the fuel distributing port of a fuel measuring and distributing mechanism and the valve of an automatic valve type fuel injector, whereby the rate of flow and hence the rise time of pressure pulses applied to the injection valve are controlled to provide an accurate amount of injection.
