  • Publication number: 20240076547
    Abstract: It is known that when etching gold films using etching solutions containing iodine and iodide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NP) is added to improve the etching solution's wettability, microfabrication property, and solution life. However, in recent years, the use of NMP has been regulated due to its adverse effects on human health. The present invention provides an etching solution and etching method for gold film that improves wettability, microfabrication property, and solution life without containing NP. In order to address the problem of the prior art, the present invention provides etching solutions and etching methods for gold films that improve wettability, microfabrication property, and liquid life without NMP, characterized by the inclusion of a specific organic solvent in the etching solution containing iodine and iodide.

  • Patent number: 11840542
    Abstract: Provided is a one-step method for producing an enol ether using a diketone of a macrocyclic compound as a starting material. A method for producing a compound represented by general formula (I) includes reacting a compound represented by general formula (II) in the presence of a metal catalyst containing at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of magnesium, aluminum, zirconium, titanium, and samarium, and an alcohol containing at least one selected from the group consisting of a primary alcohol and a secondary alcohol to obtain the compound represented by general formula (I).

  • Patent number: 9590428
    Abstract: An electric power receiving device in one aspect of embodiments of the present disclosure comprises an electric power receiving section and a converting section. The converting section comprises a compensation voltage generating section. The compensation voltage generating section generates a compensation voltage capable of canceling out a reactance component in the electric power receiving section, and applies the compensation voltage to the electric power receiving section. The compensation voltage generating section comprises a phase changing section, a physical quantity detecting section, and a searching section. The searching section searches a target phase of the compensation voltage that brings the electric power receiving device into a substantially resonant state, based on a physical quantity detected by the physical quantity detecting section.
