Abstract: A first bias conversion unit converts, based on a first frequency and a second frequency, a signal bias related to carrier phase for correcting a carrier phase contained in a first ranging signal having the first frequency, to a signal bias related to carrier phase for correcting a carrier phase contained in a second ranging signal having the second frequency. A first correction unit corrects the carrier phase using the converted signal bias. A second bias conversion unit converts the signal bias related to pseudorange to the signal bias related to pseudorange by making reference to a conversion table indicating values for use in conversion of the signal bias related to pseudorange to the signal bias related to pseudorange. A second correction unit corrects a pseudorange using the converted signal bias.

Abstract: Provided is a method for forming a metal film capable of forming a homogeneous metal film having a uniform film thickness by stably ensuring a fluid pressure of an electrolytic solution during film formation. The method places a substrate on a mount base. While sucking a gas between the substrate and a porous film through which the electrolytic solution can pass from a suction port of a suction passage formed on the mount base, the method brings the porous film into contact with the surface of the substrate. The method interrupts the suction passage while the porous film contacts the surface of the substrate. While interrupting the suction passage, the method allows the electrolytic solution to pass through the porous film while pressing the porous film against the surface of the substrate with a fluid pressure of the electrolytic solution and deposits metal from metal ions in the passed electrolytic solution on the surface of the substrate, thereby forming the metal film.

Abstract: A permanent resist, such as TMMF, is used when patterning conductive material on a substrate, enabling lines that have a higher line-to-space ratio (L/S) or a higher aspect ratio (T/L) or both. Pattern density can thus be increased, allowing for improved performance (e.g., greater efficiency, in the case of transformer coil patterning) and greater heat dissipation. As examples, the permanent-resist-based patterning fabrication methods can be used to create transformer coils within an integrated circuit (IC) module, or a routable lead frame for one or more IC dies.
