  • Patent number: 6457877
    Abstract: An optical module for an optical device and an optical fiber is constituted by a pre-molded plastic package. In forming the plastic package, the main flowing direction of the molding resin is substantially parallel with the optical axis of the optical fiber. The optical module is formed by molding the resin by an injection method using pressure and then solidifying the resin. When the plastic package is formed by comprehensive molding, the flowing direction of the resin is parallel with the optical axis direction of the optical fiber to be installed in the optical module. As a result, for comprehensive molding, the molding pressure applied to the optical fiber is reduced. By using the resin case that is formed, the resulting package exhibits high rigidity and low thermal expansion properties in connection with the flowing direction of the resin, thus reducing the external stress and thermal stress applied to the optical fiber.

  • Patent number: 5399758
    Abstract: Disclosed are a novel azide compound represented, for example, by the formula, ##STR1## wherein R.sub.f represents a fluoroalkyl or fluoroalkylpolyether group, ##STR2## wherein R represents a divalent organic group having an ester bond, and R.sub.f ' represents a fluoroalkylpolyether group, and a novel diacylhydrazine compound having a fluoroalkylpolyether group in the side chain and lubricants containing them. When this lubricant is coated onto the carbonaceous protective film of magnetic recording media and reacted by the action of light or heat, it strongly bonds or adheres to the protective film. Thus, the durability of the lubricant improves, as a result of which a high-density magnetic recording medium having a high reliability and long life can be obtained.
