When biomass fuel reacts with oxygen for a long period of time, an amount of acid ions in a fuel tank is increased with time. However, when metallic ions are generated for some reason and the reaction proceeds to change the acid ions into metallic salts, the increase rate of the amount of the acid ions in the fuel tank becomes slow. When the metallic salt forming reaction proceeds rapidly, the amount of the acid ions may even be reduced. Therefore, in the embodiment, the change of the acid ions into the metallic salts in a fuel is detected. Unless the fuel is newly supplied by refueling, the decrease of the amount of acid ions in the fuel can be considered as a change into metallic salts. Accordingly, the generation of metallic salts can be detected by monitoring the decrease of the amount of acid ions in the fuel. Thus, clogging of a fuel supply system or the like caused by the metallic salt forming reaction can be prevented.

There is provided a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device which, in the case where an InP-based device is formed with a sacrificial layer in between, is capable of obtaining better device characteristics than those in the case where an AlAs single layer is used as the sacrificial layer, and which does not have the possibility that the device layer is etched together with the sacrificial layer during etching of the sacrificial layer. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes: a formation step of forming a sacrificial layer which is pseudomorphic to InP on an InP substrate, and then forming an InP-based device layer on the sacrificial layer; and a separation step of separating the InP substrate and the device layer from each other by etching the sacrificial layer.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a fuel property detection apparatus that excels in durability and reliability and is capable of accurately detecting the biofuel concentration in a mixture of hydrocarbon fuel and biofuel with a compact and simple configuration. A fuel property sensor 22 includes a light-emitting device 28 and a light-receiving device 32, which detect the optical transmittance of a fuel in a fuel path 26; and a light-emitting device 36 and a position sensitive device 38, which detect the refractive index of the fuel. As the optical transmittance correlates with the RME concentration of the fuel, the RME concentration can be calculated from the detected optical transmittance. As the refractive index correlates with the cetane number of the fuel, the cetane number can be calculated from the detected refractive index. The optical transmittance is detected through the use of light within a wavelength range of 640 nm to 680 nm.

A transmittance sensor that detects the optical transmittance of biofuel is provided on a fuel tank that stores biofuel to be supplied to an internal combustion engine. An ECU periodically acquires the optical transmittance detected by the transmittance sensor, and calculates the amount of change from the previous value. In addition, the ECU calculates a degradation index value indicating the degree of degradation of the biofuel by accumulating the amount of change.

摘要:
A nitride based III-V compound semiconductor doped with a p-type impurity is formed on a substrate made from sapphire. The substrate is then placed between a pair of RF electrodes, and a radio frequency field is applied between the RF electrodes. With this operation, electrons present in the compound semiconductor attack the bonding between the p-type impurity and hydrogen, to cut the bonding. The hydrogen atoms thus dissociated are released from the compound semiconductor, to thereby activate the p-type impurity. In this case, it is not required to heat the compound semiconductor by a heater or the like.
