Abstract: A plasma display panel has a front plate (10) and a back plate (3) disposed in parallel and opposite to each other, and spaced a predetermined distance apart from each other by partition walls (1a, 1b, 1c). The partition walls (1a, 1b, 1c) define discharge spaces (2) each having a plurality of discharge cells. Phosphor layers (9) are formed on surfaces of the discharge spaces (2). The partition walls (1a, 1b, 1c) is formed of a material containing at least one of red, green and blue pigments. Since the partition walls (1a, 1b, 1c) are capable of luminance adjustment and white balance adjustment, the plasma display panel does not need any additional manufacturing processes and can be fabricated at a relatively low cost.

Abstract: The electrostatic information recording medium of the present invention has an electric charge retaining layer 11 stacked on at least an electrode layer 13, as shown in FIG. 1. The electric charge retaining layer is formed from either 1 a resin selected from among fluorocarbon resins and polystyrene resins, and an insulating organic substance having no photoconductivity. The electrostatic information recording medium may be produced, as shown in FIG. 5, by stacking an insulating resin layer 10 on an electrode layer 13, stacking a photoconductive or electrically conductive fine particle layer 11 on the insulating resin layer 10, and further stacking an insulating resin layer 12 on the fine particle layer 11 to a thickness of 0.1 .mu.m to 1 .mu.m. If the insulating resin layers 10 and 12 are formed by coating using a fluorocarbon resin solution, the electrostatic information recording medium can be produced with excellent processability.

Abstract: The electrostatic information recording medium of the invention has on at least an electrode an information recording layer comprising a product obtained by contact of a polymer having a fluorine-containing aliphatic ring structure with fluorine gas, on which layer a latent image charge trap is retained. This electrostatic information recording medium enables electrostatic information such as an electrostatic latent image to be recorded in the form of a charge trap rather than an electrostatic charge, and so may be used as an electrostatic printing master by way of example.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for recording data on an optical data recording card. The present invention discloses practical data formats for solving the following problems: (1) the control of the operation for reading out unit readout arrays by means of a line sensor; (2) the establishment of synchronism with data pits in case of the readout operation, (3) the discrimination between the adjacent unit readout arrays; (4) countermeasure taken when readout errors occurs; and (5) efficient access to data.In order to solve the above-described problems, data pits are arranged in unit readout arrays; bars are defined for guiding the line sensor; and a format for indicating the center position of each unit readout array is prepared. Furthermore, special bars are also defined in order to correct the inclination of the line sensor. The data pits are arranged at a predetermined period and sync pits are provided to establish the synchronization with the pit period in case of the readout operation.

Abstract: Data can be recorded onto an optical card (102; 200; 601; 800) on which a plurality of tracks are parallelly arranged and can be reproduced therefrom. The optical card is supported by card supporting means (101; 501). This card supporting means is reciprocated in a first direction by card drive means (109; 511). An optical head (103; 503; 603) is provided above the optical card to selectively provide access to tracks by a light beam. This optical head is reciprocated in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction by head drive means (108; 507). The reciprocating motion of the card supporting means is accelerated and decelerated when the optical head scans on guide sections (G) provided on both the sides of the optical card. Error correcting codes are added to data recorded onto the optical card. Thus, error correction is made by an error correction circuit (136). Motors of respective drive means are enclosed with vibration proof metal (321, 323) and vibration proof rubber (322).

Abstract: A large number of tracks (T) are formed on an optical card (200) and user data are recorded as pits on these tracks. By driving this optical card in a reciprocating manner in a direction parallel to the tracks, user data are reproduced. At both the end portions of each track, guide sections (G) in which no pit indicative of information is formed are provided, thus preventing errors in reading occurring at the time of acceleration and deceleration in the reciprocating drive. Identification information (I) for tracks is recorded at the inside portion adjacent to one guide section, and termination information (E) for tracks is recorded at the inside portion adjacent to the other guide section. User data (U) are recorded between the identification information and the termination information. User data is divided into groups comprised of a predetermined number of bits.

Abstract: A format is provided with special error check pits in order to take countermeasures when readout errors occur. Furthermore, in order to take countermeasures when readout errors occur due to local contamination on the optical data recording card, the data are distributed and then recorded. In order to perform the efficient access to data, required data representing a predetermined address value are also recorded together with the general data. A method is also provided for forming pits by modulating the digital signal and an optical system as well as a signal processing system of a reading device used in connection with the optical data recording cards. The optical data recording cards on which are recorded the data by the method of the present invention can be used in various fields as recording media for storage of computer programs, images, musical data and various data bases.
