The attaching structure includes: a rear work machine attaching spacer disposed between the rear work machine connection body and the corresponding attaching plate, the rear work machine attaching spacer including: a fixing portion for fixing to the attaching plate; and the upper and lower spacer engagement portions for removably connecting the upper and lower connection portions, respectively.
Abstract:
According to an aspect of an embodiment, a head slider includes: a slider substrate; and an operating unit arranged on the slider substrate, the operating unit having a pair of electrodes and a piezoelectric component arranged between the pair of electrodes, the pair of electrodes being constituted by a first electrode and a second electrode, in which the product of the Young's modulus and the thickness of the first electrode in the direction from the first electrode to the second electrode is larger than the product of the Young's modulus and the thickness of the second electrode in the direction from the first electrode to the second electrode. The head slider further includes a magnetic head arranged on the slider substrate with the operating unit, opposite to the slider substrate.
Abstract:
A photonic crystal structural body has a structure that a second mediums whose refractive index changes with an external field is periodically distributed in a first medium whose refractive index changes with the external field. An external field generator applies the external field to the photonic crystal structural body. It is possible to increase a change amount of a photonic band gap.

Abstract:
An optical wiring substrate provides a slab optical waveguide having a refractive index different from a refractive index of other surrounding portions and a planar convex lens being provided continuously to a tip portion of an optical path of an optical wave guide including a core and cladding and formed on a substrate. The optical path of light passing through the planar convex lens is converted approximately by 90° with a mirror. The light reflected with the mirror is made as parallel light rays by use of a cylindrical lens.
Abstract:
The optical device comprises a first substrate 10 having a control circuit formed on; optical waveguide layer 40 formed above the first substrate and having a refractive index changed by electro-optic effect; and second substrates 14a, 14b having prism electrodes 18 for applying voltages to the optical waveguide layer. The control circuit and the prism electrodes are electrically connected to each other via columnar conductors 20. Even in a case where thermal expansion coefficients of the control substrate and of the light deflection substrates are very different from each other, the pins are flexed corresponding to eternal forces, whereby junction is protected from being damaged in the joining processing. Thus, the optical switch can be highly reliable.
