A laser source includes a laser device configured to emit laser light at a given angle with respect to a normal of an output end face; and an optical device configured to include an optical waveguide that guides and outputs the laser light. The output end face of the laser device is parallel to an input end face of the optical device, and the optical waveguide extends in a direction of θw1 that is given by θw1=arcsin(sin θa1/nF), where θa1 denotes an outgoing angle of the laser light from the laser device, and nF denotes an effective refractive index of the optical waveguide for the laser light.

An object of the invention is to provide an optical device and an optical device manufacturing method wherein provisions are made to be able to substantially prevent misalignment from occurring in an optical element and prevent shifting from occurring in the optical waveguide characteristics of the optical element. The optical device includes a first optical element, a second optical element optically coupled to the first optical element, and a first silicon substrate on which the first optical element and the second optical element are mounted, wherein the second optical element includes a second silicon substrate and a waveguide substrate laminated to the second silicon substrate, and the second optical element is mounted on the first silicon substrate in such a manner that the waveguide substrate faces the first silicon substrate.

An adjust pin (1) for connecting a plurality of blocks (2) to each other to make up a wrist watch band (3) is formed of a metal with a property having a superelastic region where a stress remains constant against variation in strain. The adjust pin (1) is provided with a bent part (5) for causing a bending stress in the superelastic region to act on the inner wall face of a connecting through-hole (2a) of a block (2) in a state wherein the block (2) is joined with an adjoining block (2). When the adjust pin (1) is inserted in the blocks (2), and the bent part (5) is positioned in the connecting through-hole (2a), the bent part (5) provides a force acting on the inner wall of the connecting through-hole (2a) by the agency of the bending stress in the superelastic region, thereby securely holding the adjust pin (1) by a spring force thereof.

An ink-jet head comprises: an insulating base (10); a plurality of juxtaposed multilayer piezoelectric elements (20) each formed by alternately stacking conductive members and piezoelectric plates polarized in the direction of the thickness and having a lowermost layer (25) and an uppermost layer (26) which are nondriven layers which are not distorted even when voltage is applied thereto; an elastically bendable oscillation plate (30); and a flow passage plate (40) provided with a plurality of ink outlets(43) at the front end thereof, and a plurality of juxtaposed ink chambers (41) connected to the ink outlets (43). The lowermost layers (25) of the multilayer piezoelectric elements (20) are bonded to the upper surface of the base (10), and the oscillation plate (30) is bonded to the uppermost layers (26) of the multilayer piezoelectric elements (20). The flow passage plate (40) is bonded to the upper surface of the oscillation plate (30) with the ink chambers (41) arranged in the direction of distortion of the multilayer piezoelectric elements (20). A front member (50) is bonded to the front end surfaces of the multilayer piezoelectric elements (20) and a front end portion of the oscillation plate (30).

An ink cartridge for the ink jet printer has a cartridge housing having a storeroom and an adjustment room therein separated by a bulkhead. The bulkhead extends vertically at the center of the cartridge housing, and has a lower part thereof with a connection opening extending therethrough. The connection opening communicates the storeroom with the adjustment room. The storeroom is airtight except for the connection opening. The adjustment room has an upper part with an air hole communicating the adjustment room with the atmosphere and a lowest part with a feed pocket for feeding ink to a printing head. Fiber-like materials impregnated with ink are filled inside the adjustment room, these materials having a part thereof that extend to the bottom of the storeroom through the connection opening. The fiber-like materials comprise a plurality of felt blocks that have different fiber densities, the felt blocks being arranged so that the closer the felt blocks are to the feed pocket, the greater the fiber density of the felt blocks.

A print head is provided with armatures, each having a stylus section and a plunger in an opposite position, the armatures each having the middle section that serves as a fulcrum for rotation. A plurality of first flat springs act on the armatures to that the armatures are biased in direction bias the armatures in a direction returning the armatures against the bias forces by the first flat springs.
