Abstract: An external gear includes a body, external teeth, a diaphragm, and a strain gauge. The diaphragm extends in a direction intersecting with an axial direction on another side in of the body the axial direction. The strain gauge is on at least one of a surface on one side of the diaphragm in the axial direction and a surface on another side of the diaphragm in the axial direction. The strain gauge is only in a region that is about a half or less of a radial length from one end of the diaphragm in the axial direction to the other end of the diaphragm in the axial direction with a radial midpoint between the one end of the diaphragm in the axial direction and the other end of the diaphragm in the axial direction as a center in a section passing through the central axis.

Abstract: A method and system are presented for use in measuring characteristic(s) of patterned structures. The method utilizes processing of first and second measured data, wherein the first measured data is indicative of at least one Raman spectrum obtained from a patterned structure under measurements using at least one selected optical measurement scheme each with a predetermined configuration of illuminating and/or collected light conditions corresponding to the characteristic(s) to be measured, and the second measured data comprises at least one spectrum obtained from the patterned structure in Optical Critical Dimension (OCD) measurement session. The processing comprises applying model-based analysis to the at least one Raman spectrum and the at least one OCD spectrum, and determining the characteristic(s) of the patterned structure under measurements.

Abstract: A force touch judgement method is applied to a force touch pad with two force sensors. Firstly, a force touch operation corresponding to a real force value is performed on a force touch position. Then, a first sensing signal value and a second sensing signal value corresponding to the force touch operation are respectively generated by the two force sensors. Then, the first sensing signal value and the second sensing signal value are added as a total sensing signal value. A calibration force value corresponding to the force touch position is obtained. A first calibration signal value and a second calibration signal value corresponding to the force touch position are added as a total calibration signal value. A ratio of the total sensing signal value to the total calibration signal value is equal to a ratio of the real force value to the calibration force value.

Abstract: A thin film sensor includes an insulating layer provided on a surface of a measurement target, and a sensor layer that is laminated on the insulating layer, and includes a plurality of regions partitioned by a groove that is provided by irradiation of a laser and penetrates in a thickness direction. Among the plurality of regions, at least one region corresponds to a sensor region that senses a pressure applied to the measurement target or a temperature of the measurement target, and other regions each correspond to a non-sensor region that does not sense a pressure applied to the measurement target or a temperature of the measurement target.
