[Problem] To provide: a wristwatch band which allows the number of parts and the number of manufacturing processes to be reduced so as to improve mass productivity and enable cost reduction and which prevents reliability degradation due to deterioration over time; a method for producing the wristwatch band; and a wristwatch. [Solution] This wristwatch band is formed by: integrally forming an inner piece and an outer piece into an integrally formed piece; forming at least two of such integrally formed pieces; forming screw holes in each of the two outer pieces and forming a through-hole in the inner pieces; inserting a rod in the each of the screw holes to connect the two outer pieces and fix the two inner pieces to each other; further inserting a rod through the through-holes to assemble the inner pieces and the outer pieces to form a single band piece block; inserting both ends of the rod inserted in the through-holes into the screw holes of the outer pieces of another single band piece block; and connecting the single band piece blocks in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the rod to form a wristwatch band. Furthermore, a wristwatch provided with such a wristwatch band is formed.
[Problem] To provide: a substrate comprising diamond which is free-standing, in which warpage is suppressed, and variation in the angles of the crystal axis over the entire surface of the substrate is suppressed; and a method for producing the diamond substrate. [Solution] In the present invention, an underlying substrate is prepared and multiple columnar diamonds comprising diamond single crystals are formed on one side of the underlying substrate. The diamond single crystals are grown from the tip of each columnar diamond and the diamond single crystals grown from the tip of each columnar diamond are coalesced to form a diamond substrate layer which is separated from the underlying substrate to produce a diamond substrate from the diamond substrate layer. Thus, the difference between the highest portion and the lowest portion of the diamond substrate in the thickness direction is over 0 μm and 485 μm or less, and the variation in the angles of the crystal axis over the entire surface of the diamond substrate is over 0° and 3.00° or less.
Provided is a low-loss mode scrambler that allows for the steady-state mode distribution to be acquired within a short distance even when incident light is smaller than the numerical aperture of fibers to be measured and facilitates switching to the all-mode distribution state in a multi-mode fiber having a numerical aperture of 0.2 or more with a core diameter larger than tens of μm. A single fiber 2 is wound around and bundled on a plurality of bobbins 3a, 3b with a larger radius than the minimum bending radius of the fiber. A twisted portion 5 is formed by rotating the bobbins 3a, 3b and twisting the fiber 2. Thereby, the output acquired from the light entering the fiber is in the steady-state mode.
