Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100053194DATA CREATING APPARATUS, DRAWING APPARATUS AND CONTROLLING METHODS THEREOF, AND RECORDING MEDIA - In a data creating apparatus, stored in a character information storing unit is information representing a basic portion of a graphic. A gradation information creating unit extracts oversampling information, and generates gradation data of a portion other than the basic portion of the graphic by an oversampling process.03-04-2010

20110267893NON-VOLATILE SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY AND MEMORY SYSTEM - A non-volatile semiconductor memory determines that a given memory cell in an array is at a predetermined threshold voltage in a determination circuit by comparing a current of the memory cell with a reference current in a sense amplifier circuit. A reference current generation circuit includes a current variable device adjusting the reference current. A current adjustment amount calculator receives address information of the memory cell of which threshold voltage is determined and calculates a current adjustment amount corresponding to the address information. The current variable device adjusts the reference current based on the calculated current adjustment amount. Therefore, even when characteristics of interconnects coupled to the sense amplifier circuit, the target memory cell, and the sense amplifier vary, an offset amount between an actual threshold and an apparent threshold is eliminated to reduce electric stress applied to the memory cell in a rewrite operation.11-03-2011

Teruhisa Kotani, Osaka JP

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090278421ULTRASONIC MOTOR - An ultrasonic motor has a cylindrical rotor for performing a mechanical output, a plurality of ultrasonic vibrators each having two points in internal contact with the rotor, and a preload mechanism for pressing the ultrasonic vibrators from an inside toward an outside of the rotor, and the ultrasonic vibrators are provided to be rotatable relative to the preload mechanism. With this configuration, an internal contact type ultrasonic motor capable of performing efficient drive by using a plurality of ultrasonic vibrators each in contact with a cylindrical rotor at two points and allowing contact at all contact points without requiring a high machining accuracy can be provided.11-12-2009
20100128577NEAR-FIELD LIGHT GENERATING DEVICE AND OPTICALLY-ASSISTED MAGNETIC RECORDING DEVICE - A near-field light generating device includes a substrate, a semiconductor laser device, a light absorbing device, and a near-field light generator. The semiconductor laser device is formed on the substrate and emits the laser light polarized in a first direction. The light absorbing device is formed on the substrate to be close to a light emission part of the semiconductor laser device and absorbs light polarized in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. The near-field light generator is formed on the substrate to be close to a light emission part of the light absorbing device.05-27-2010
20100296537OPTICAL COMPONENT AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THEREOF - An optical component includes a supporter and a semiconductor laser device. The supporter has a metal wiring layer formed over the substrate and a fusing metal layer formed on the metal wiring layer. The semiconductor laser device includes an electrode and stacked semiconductor films including an active layer. A protrusion is formed on one of the supporter and the semiconductor laser device, and the end face of the protrusion is in area contact with the other one of these components. The metal wiring layer and the electrode are integrated with each other via the fusing metal layer, at a location different from the protrusion.11-25-2010
