Abstract: A loading lid is provided with a roll holding mechanism. The roll holding mechanism is constituted of a holder plate, a first position regulate section and a second position regulate section. The holder plate and the loading lid are attached to a same shaft. The holder plate is biased by a spring toward the loading lid. After the printing paper roll is put on the loading lid, it is closed. On closing the loading lid, as it relatively moves to the holder plate, an open angle between the loading lid and the holder plate becomes smaller gradually. When first and second positioning plates and the holder plate contact to a periphery of the paper roll, the loading lid stops relatively moving to the holder plate. Thereafter, the loading lid and the holder plate move together while they keep the open angle in accordance with the largeness of the radius of the paper roll. When the loading lid is perfectly closed, a center of a roll core is set at a predetermined position, regardless of the largeness of the paper roll.

Abstract: A single crystal SiC layer is formed on a substrate surface by heating the substrate under existence of a raw material containing C or C and Si. SiC is deposited on the single crystal SiC layer by the vapor phase growth method or the liquid phase growth method. In the step of forming the single crystal SiC layer, the raw material is supplied in the vicinity of the surface, and the raw material in the vicinity of the surface is given a partial pressure higher at least by a predetermined rate than that of an impurity. Thus, the impurity is prevented from reaching the surface, so that the surface is prevented from being etched by the impurity.

Abstract: After an underlying layer, made of a single crystal metal material, has been formed on a semiconductor layer, part or all of the underlying layer is changed into a metal oxide layer by supplying oxygen thereto from above the underlying layer. Then, a ferroelectric or high-dielectric-constant film is further formed on the metal oxide layer. Since the film made of a metal material is formed on the semiconductor layer, a silicon dioxide film or the like is not formed easily. Thus, a dielectric film, which includes an underlying layer with a high dielectric constant and has a large capacitance per unit area, can be obtained. Various defects such as interface states in the semiconductor layer can also be reduced advantageously if these process steps are performed after a thermal oxide film has been formed on the semiconductor layer.
