The present invention aims to provide a handpiece and a horn for an ultrasonic surgical instrument in which better visual recognition of a tip portion of the horn can be given. The handpiece for an ultrasonic surgical instrument includes: a horn of which tip portion vibrates at an ultrasonic wave velocity; and an external cylinder for covering the horn except the tip portion. An external diameter of the tip portion of the horn is larger than an external diameter of a part covered by the external cylinder.

A wave transmission medium includes an input port 3-1 and an output port 3-2. A field distribution 1 and a field distribution 2 are obtained by numerical calculations. The field distribution 1 is a field distribution of the propagation light (forward propagation light) launched into the input port 3-1. The field distribution 2 is a field distribution of the phase conjugate light (reverse propagation light) resulting from reversely transmitting from the output port side an output field that is expected to be output from the output port 3-2 when an optical signal is launched into the input port 3-1. According to the field distributions 1 and 2, a spatial refractive index distribution is calculated such that the phase difference between the propagation light and reverse propagation light is eliminated at individual points (x, z) in the medium.

An optical pulse pattern generator can generate optical pulse signals with various periods and patterns. It supplies an optical pulse from an optical pulse source to a variable optical delay line circuit including cascade-connected characteristic-variable asymmetrical Mach-Zehnder interferometers via an optical combiner and splitter. The optical pulse is fed back to the optical combiner and splitter from the final stages of the cascade-connected characteristic-variable a symmetrical Mach-Zehnder interferometers via an optical exclusive OR circuit and optical amplifier. Making directional couplers with variable coupling ratio, and directional couplers with variable coupling ratio in operation can cause the final stage of the cascade-connected characteristic-variable asymmetrical Mach-Zehnder interferometer to produce a random pulse train.

An optical CDMA encoder-decoder is constructed by combining arrayed-waveguide gratings, matrix optical switches, and delay lines, otherwise by combining arrayed-waveguide grating and variable delay lines, thus providing an encoding process that a wavelength change with respect to time in optical pulses. The light includes a wide spectrum band width inserted into a CDMA encoder/decoder and is demultiplexed by arrayed-waveguide gratings. Each wave length according to the demultiplexed spectrum component spreads out in the time region based on delay time differences produced by delay lines having differential optical lengths. Thus, in CDMA, the dependency of wavelengths on delay time can be set arbitrarily.

The present invention aims to maximally reduce a projecting width of a projecting part formed on a terminal when the terminal is crimped to an exposed core part of an end part of a wire. To achieve this aim, a method for producing a terminal-equipped wire in which a crimping portion of a terminal is crimped to an exposed core part of an end part of a wire includes a) a step of arranging the exposed core part in the crimping portion, b) a step of sandwiching a part of the crimping portion between a lower die surface of a lower die and an upper die surface of an upper die and crimping the part of the crimping portion to the exposed core part, and c) a step of pressing an end part of the crimping portion protruding from the upper die surface from above.

An optical wavelength multiplexing/de-multiplexing circuit having a low loss and a flat transmission spectrum is provided. The optical wavelength multiplexing/de-multiplexing circuit compensates a temperature dependence of a center transmission wavelength which remains in an athermal AWG, and has an excellent accuracy of the center transmission wavelength in a whole operating temperature range or has a comparatively wide operable temperature range. The temperature dependence of the transmission wavelength in the athermal MZI is modulated and set so as to cancel the temperature dependence of the center wavelength which remains in the athermal AWG. The present invention focuses particularly on an optical coupler in the MZI and modulates the temperature dependence of the transmission wavelength in the MZI by providing the optical coupler itself with a mechanism which changes a phase difference between two outputs by temperature.

Disclosed is a method of producing a semiconductor device, able to form a source/drain of a Schottky junction (FET) with simple steps and able to improve the device characteristics. A gate is formed on an element region defined in a silicon substrate layer by element isolation regions (first step), the silicon substrate is etched by self-alignment using the gate and the element isolation regions as masks (second step), and an insulating film is formed on the side surfaces of the gate (third step). Then, a metal film acting as the source/drain is selectively formed on the etching region of the silicon substrate by electroless plating (fourth step).
