A thermoelectric conversion device is manufactured by the following steps of forming. A metallic material is formed on a substrate. A photosensitive resin pattern is formed on the metallic material. Patterned n-type or p-type thermoelectric material elements having a predetermined thickness and electrode junction layers are formed by plating. Next, the photosensitive resin pattern is dissolved and the metallic material is removed. And the substrate having the p-type thermoelectric material elements and the substrate having the n-type thermoelectric material elements are joined with the electrode junction layers interposed between the each thermoelectric material elements and the opposed substrate.

An X-ray analyzing apparatus having high sensitivity and high position resolving power in which an X-ray fluorescent screen made of Gd.sub.2 O.sub.2 S:Tb as a material and having a surface density ranging from 5 mg/cm.sup.2 to 30 mg/cm.sup.2 is used, and an image intensifier and a charge coupled device (CCD) are combined to form an X-ray difraction two-dimensional detector; and the image intensifier and the CCD are combined with a tapered fiber plate, and an alignment section of a mirror mount tube and a vacuum flexible tube are separated by an X-ray window ambient atmsophere and a vacuum.

X-ray analyzing

A coordinate reader comprises a coordinate detector body having at least one excitation line, at least one detection line, an exciting circuit connected to the excitation line for supplying an exciting signal, a signal processing circuit connected to the detection line for receiving an induction signal generated in the detection line and outputting a signal containing amplitude information of the induction signal, and a control circuit for receiving the signal outputted by the signal processing unit and outputting an excitation control signal to the exciting circuit. A coordinate indicator indicates position information obtained from the induction signal induced in the detection line. A phase detecting circuit detects a phase difference between the excitation signal and the induction signal generated in the detection line. By this structure, an induction signal component due to the direct electromagnetic coupling between the excitation line and the detection line is eliminated, the required accuracy in calculation of the coordinates is ensured, and the read invalid region can be further reduced.
