A stage includes a base material including a step portion and an insulating film. The step portion includes a first surface recessed from a top surface of the base material and a second surface recessed from a side surface of the base material. The insulating film includes a plurality of first layers on the first surface and a plurality of second layers on the second surface. In the step portion, each first end portion of the plurality of first layers and each second end portion of the plurality of second layers are alternately stacked. The first surface and the second surface are connected via a corner, and each first end portion and each second end portion are alternately stacked at the corner.

Stage and manufacturing method thereof

A fastening member includes a screw thread formed therein. A portion including a crest portion of the screw thread is formed of a first alloy material and includes: a thick portion where the portion is maximized in thickness in a circumferential direction; and a thin portion where the portion is minimized in thickness in the circumferential direction. A portion including a root of the screw thread is formed of a second alloy material having a tensile strength higher than that of the first alloy material.

Fastening member

An aluminum alloy contains 0.7% to 1.8% of silicon, 0.5% to 2.1% of copper, 0.4% to 1.8% of manganese, 0.6% to 1.6% of magnesium, and 0.1% to 0.7% of zinc in terms of mass ratio and the balance aluminum with inevitable impurities.

Aluminum alloy and fastener member

A fastening member includes: a first alloy section made of aluminum alloy containing zinc in an amount of 0.005 wt % or more and 6.5 wt % or less and containing magnesium in an amount of 0.6 wt % or more and 2.0 wt % or less, and provided at a portion being in contact with at least one of the plurality of members; and a second alloy section made of an aluminum alloy containing magnesium in an amount of greater than 0.2 wt % and 2.3 wt % or less and containing copper in an amount of greater than 1.0 wt % and 8.0 wt % or less, and bonded to the first alloy section.

Fastening member and rod-shaped member for fastening member

A rotor includes: conductors having a bar shape; a first end ring joined to one ends of the conductors by friction stir welding, at least a surface opposite to a surface from which the conductors extend being stirred by the friction stir welding; a second end ring joined to other ends of the conductors by friction stir welding, at least a surface opposite to a surface from which the conductors extend being stirred by the friction stir welding; and an iron core disposed between the first and the second end rings, having a cylindrical shape, and including a plurality of insertion holes through which the respective conductors are insertable in a central axis direction of the iron core.

Rotor and method for manufacturing rotor

A space transformer includes: a ceramic substrate that contains enstatite and boron nitride as components; a through hole running through in a thickness direction with respect to a sintered body in which the boron nitride is oriented in one direction; conductive material provided inside the through hole; and a wiring pattern including a plurality of electrodes provided on each of two principal surfaces, wherein a wiring pitch in the wiring pattern on one principal surface is different from a wiring pitch in the wiring pattern on the other principal surface.

Space transformer having a ceramic substrate with a wiring pattern for use in a probe card

Provided are a ceramic member being a sintered body including at least forsterite and boron nitride as major components, and in which the boron nitride is oriented in one direction, a probe holder formed by using the ceramic member, and a method for manufacturing the ceramic member. In the ceramic member, the index of orientation preference is equal to or lower than 0.07, and the coefficient of thermal expansion at 20 to 300&#xb0; C. in a direction parallel to the direction of orientation is (3 to 5)&#xd7;10/&#xb0; C., or the three-point bending strength based on JIS R 1601 is equal to or higher than 250 MPa.
