A method for forming a layer comprising SiOCN on a substrate is disclosed. An exemplary method includes thermally depositing the layer comprising SiOCN on a surface of the substrate. The layer comprising SiOCN can be used for various applications, including spacers, etch stop layers, and etch resistant layers.

A lightweight, high-strength proppant is disclosed, comprising the formation of finely dispersed ceramic precursors and sintering at low temperatures, causing the formation and retention of mesopores and micropores in pelletized ceramic. A method of manufacturing such a proppant is also disclosed, comprising the steps of manufacturing finely divided ceramic precursors and additives using grinding, milling, and preferably sol-gel processes, and dispersing the finely divided ceramic precursors and additives in a liquid, preferably water. The dispersion has a viscosity profile, which permits the shaping of spheres using conventional pelletizing techniques. Drying of the pellets and sintering at temperatures below 1,400.degrees. C. forms and retains mesopores and micropores in the ceramic. Preferred total pore volumes range from 0.05 to 0.7 cm.sup.3/g. The pelletized and porous ceramic is useful as lightweight and high-strength proppants.

An object of the present invention is to provide a carbazole derivative which is useful in manufacturing a substance having resistance to oxidation. Another object is to provide a carbazole derivative which is useful in manufacturing a novel material with high reliability. Still another object is to provide a material for a light emitting element with high reliability. The present invention is a carbazole derivative represented by the following general formula (1) (where each of Ar¹ and Ar² represents an aryl group having 6 to 14 carbon atoms which may include a substitute, Ar¹ and Ar² may be either the same or different, and R in the formula represents hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms). In addition, the present invention is a material for a light emitting element which includes a carbazole derivative represented by the following general formula (1) as a substituent.

A precursor yarn or thread is made by passing a central element, e.g., a filament, a tow, or a flat member, through a bath of a binder, such as a low-temperature hot-melt adhesive, and aqueous urethane, or an acrylic material, with which is mixed a quantity of hard-shelled microspheres which expand when heated to a higher temperature. This is then covered by a sheath, e.g, of PVC, polyurethane, polyester, acrylic resin, polycarbonate, polypropylene, or polyethylene in a second bath. When this product is heated to a transition temperature which is characteristic of the microspheres chosen, the microspheres expand, swelling the sheath. Such a precursor could be woven into a fabric and then heated, so that as the yarn expands the fabric mesh becomes tighter, reducing its porosity. This would be useful as a yarn in making papermaker's felts. Heat-expansible threads made similarly would be useful in manufacture of shoes, sails, tents, clothing and other items where porosity is undesirable; that is, the product could be sewn together using the thread of the invention and then heat-treated, causing the thread to expand, sealing the holes made in sewing. Such threads would also be useful for decorative purposes, e.g., as embroidery yarns, and likely for other purposes. The yarns of the invention can also be disposed in a desired position and infused with a hardening resin while heat is applied to cause the microspheres to expand, forming a lightweight and stiff composite structure.

A chip resistor (A1) comprises a first insulation layer (2A) covering the regions between a plurality of electrodes (3) on a rear surface (10a) of a resistor (1), and a second insulation layer covering a pair of side faces of the resistor (1). Inadvertent adhesion of solder to an improper part of the resistor (1) can thereby be eliminated. A solder layer (4) is preferably formed on a pair of end faces (10d) of the resistor (1). In so doing, a solder fillet can be formed appropriately.
