The average concentration of solute B in a region extending from a surface layer to a depth of 100 ?m is 10 mass ppm or more. The average concentration of N present as AlN in the region is 70 mass ppm or less.

Abstract: A pile press-in construction method uses a pile press-in device having a saddle, a clamp device grasping a top of an existing pile, a mast, a raising and lowering device, and a chuck device supported by the mast and holding a pile. The pile press-in device generates a reaction force by griping the existing pile with the clamp device, holds the pile by the chuck device, presses the pile into the ground by the raising and lowering device, and successively presses piles in while moving on a pile row including the existing pile to thereby extend the pile row. By turning of the mast and tilting of the chuck device about a chuck tilting axis, the chuck device is laid sideways and projects outward to a side of the pile row, the pile is supplied and inserted into the chuck device, and the chuck device grasps the pile.

Abstract: A sales data processing apparatus includes a first table on which an item is placeable, a mounting table including a mounting plate and columnar supports disposed on sides of the first table to face each other, the mounting plate being supported by the supports and disposed above the first table, and a first display device that is disposed on the mounting plate and includes a display surface facing a first direction.

Abstract: An electrolysis device includes: a first electrolysis cell to reduce a reducible material and oxidize an oxidizable material; a second electrolysis cell to reduce the reducible material and oxidize the oxidizable material; a first supply source to supply a first fluid containing gas of the reducible material to the cells; a second supply source to supply a second fluid containing liquid of the oxidizable material to the cells; and at least one power supply to supply a first and a second power supply current to the first and the second electrolysis cell respectively. The at least one power supply can set values of the first and second power supply currents so that a current density of current flowing through the second electrolysis cell when reducing the reducible material is higher than a current density of current flowing through the first electrolysis cell when reducing the reducible material.

Abstract: Provided is a charge/discharge control circuit controllable by a control signal from a controller that is external. The charge/discharge control circuit includes a control circuit configured to, in response to a power-down control signal for transitioning to a power-down state being input from the controller, latch the power-down control signal and block a discharge path from a secondary cell (SC) to the controller.

Abstract: A carbon dioxide electrolytic device includes an electrolysis cell including: an anode configured to oxidize water to produce oxygen; a cathode configured to reduce carbon dioxide to produce carbon compound; a cathode flow path plate having a surface provided in contact with the cathode and a cathode flow path provided on the surface and facing to the cathode; and a separator provided between the anode and the cathode. The surface has a hydrophilic region provided on the cathode and having a contact angle to water of less than 45 degrees.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a merchandise sales device includes a main body device and a support member. The main body device performs information processing for merchandise sales while accepting an operation from an operator.
