    Abstract: In the present invention, a starting material liquid including a carbon compound and a catalyst or a catalyst precursor, and a reaction vessel having a high-temperature zone heated to 900-1,300° C. are prepared. The starting material liquid is introduced into the reaction vessel, and a mixture is generated which comprises a gas including a carbon source, and catalyst microparticles dispersed in the gas. A carrier gas is then introduced in pulses into the reaction vessel, and the mixture is pushed out to the high-temperature zone. The carbon source and catalyst microparticles included in the mixture are then brought into contact with each other in the high-temperature zone, initial fibers are grown, and carbon fibers are subsequently grown in an environment in which the carrier gas is retained.

    Abstract: According to an embodiment, an information processing device includes a memory device, one or more peripheral devices, a processor, and a state controller. The processor is able to change between a first state, in which a command is executed, and a second state, in which an interrupt is awaited. When the processor enters the second state and if an operation for data transfer is being performed between at least one of the peripheral devices and the memory device, the state controller switches the information processing device to a third state in which power consumption is lower as compared to the first state. If the operation for data transfer is not being performed between any of the peripheral devices and the memory device, the state controller switches the information processing device to a fourth state in which power consumption is lower as compared to the third state.
