Abstract: A laser delivery system and method incorporate a diffractive optic beam integrator. The diffractive optic apparatus for modifying the spatial intensity distribution of an excimer laser beam (10) to generate a spatially integrated beam comprises a diffractive optic diffuser (12) and a converging lens (22). The diffractive optic diffuser (12) includes a diffractive grating pattern etched in a transparent medium for transforming the intensity profile of the excimer laser beam into a generally circular, substantially uniform spatial intensity distribution at a spatial integration plane. A variable aperture positioned about the spatial integration plane selectively passes the spatially integrated beam to an imaging lens. The imaging lens forms an image of the passed beam about a surface of a tissue to be ablated. A scanning element under computer control scans the imaged beam about the surface.

Abstract: An apparatus for extracting power from ocean waves comprises a number of buoyant cylindrical body members (2, 3, 4) connected together at their ends to form an articulated chain-like structure (1). Each pair of adjacent cylindrical members is connected to each other by a coupling member (5a, 5b) which permits relative rotational movement of the cylindrical members about at least one transverse axis (40). Adjacent coupling members may permit relative rotation about mutually orthogonal transverse axes (A, B). Each coupling member is provided with elements such as a set of hydraulic rams (33, 34, 35) which resist and extract power from the relative rotational movement of the body members, and which can provide applied constraints to rotation about one or both of the transverse axes. The transverse axes of rotation (A, B) are skewed from the horizontal axis (104) and vertical axis (100) by a roll bias angle (psi), selected to optimize the dynamic response of the apparatus to incoming waves. The roll bias angle (psi) is applied by differential ballasting of the body members (2, 3, 4) and/or mooring constraints.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an impact ionisation avalanche transit time (IMPATT) diode device comprising an avalanche region and a drift region, wherein at least one narrow bandgap region, with a bandgap narrower than the bandgap in the avalanche region, is located adjacent to or within the avalanche region in order to generate within the narrow bandgap region a tunnel current which is injected into the avalanche region. This improves the predictability with which a current can be injected into the avalanche region and enables a relatively narrow pulse of current to be injected into the avalanche region in order to enable a relatively noise free avalanche multiplication. The narrow bandgap region may be located between a heavily doped contact region and the avalanche region and is preferably arranged to generate a tunnel current at the peak reverse bias applied to the diode.

Abstract: A sensor having an active sensing material exposed to the substance to be detected and an active reference material that is shielded from the substance to be detected. Thermocouples having a set of junctions proximate to the active sensing material and another set of junctions to the active reference material for measuring the temperatures at the respective materials. The junctions are connected differentially in that a difference of the two temperatures is measured. A heater is proximate and common to the two materials. Heat pulses may be applied to the materials via the heater and the temperatures are measured. If ambient factors or substances affect the active sensing material, its thermal response will be different than that of the active reference material, and a differential pulse-like indication of temperature will be detected. This indication will have certain characteristics of amplitude, shape and time, which indicate an identification of the type and concentration of substance detected by the sensor.

Abstract: A dual mode liquid crystal display device has a liquid crystal material disposed between a first polarizer and a second reflective polarizer. A light source is disposed behind the second polarizer and an absorbing means is disposed behind the second polarizer in front of the light source. The reflective polarizer may be a wire grid polarizer and reflects one polarization back towards the front of the display to create a bright image. The other polarization is passed by the reflective polarizer and absorbed by the absorbing means. The absorbing means may be a third polarizer and a wave plate for rotating the polarization passed by the second polarizer before absorbing it so that the second and third polarizers pass the same polarization so that the light produced by the light source may also pass through to the front of the display. The absorbing means may also be a removable sheet of absorbing material. A controller selectively activates the liquid crystal to selectively alter the polarization of the light as it passes through. A switch may reverse the manner in which the controller activates the liquid crystal so that the same pattern of bright and dark images is maintained when the display switches between an ambient illumination mode and an internal illumination mode.

Abstract: Composite insulators can fulfill their task in a manner which is free of interferences only when the protective sheathings do not comprise seams, gaps and ridges. When the casing and the sheath are simultaneously molded in a work process, ridges can result on the surface of the composite insulator due to mold seams and thereby form sources of interference. Moreover, only composite insulators having a predetermined number of annular sheathes can be produced using these molds. The aim of the invention is to produce composite insulators having any number of annular sheaths and having a sheathing without seams, welds or gaps. To this end, the advance of a core (102) is stopped when applying a material (36) of the sheathings (3) to a rod-shaped or tubular core (102) which is transported in the longitudinal direction thereof and which is comprised of a composite material. In addition, an annular sheath (5) is molded using a mold (15), said mold, when viewed in a direction of transport (31), advances the core (102) in front of the system (12) for applying the material (36) of the sheathing (3). The invention also provides that the advance of the core (102) is resumed after the sheathing (5) has been molded, and the application of the material (36) is continued. The material (36) of the sheathing (3) is applied to the core (102) in an uninterrupted manner until the sheathing (3) has been completely produced.

Abstract: Lavatrice o lavastoviglie con un dispositivo di comando a programma e un dispositivo di misurazione per accertare il grado di sporco rispettivamente d'intorbidamento dell'acqua di lavaggio, il processo di lavaggio essendo regolato in funzione del grado di sporco rilevato. Al fine di ottenere un processo di lavaggio atto ad ottimizzare il risultato relativo al consumo di energia e al funzionamento, durante la fase iniziale del processo di lavaggio viene accertato, mediante una fase di misurazione e di valutazione, il grado di sporco dall'acqua di lavaggio raggiunto durante un certo periodo di tempo. Dopo un certo tempo la temperatura dell'acqua di lavaggio viene poi aumentata e la suddetta fase di misurazione e di valutazione viene ripetuta. Da ciascuna delle due fasi di misurazione viene derivata una grandezza di misura riferita all'energia consumata per un determinato periodo di funzionamento. Dopo la valutazione di queste grandezze misurabili viene stabilito e eseguito automaticamente lo svolgimento più conveniente, dal punto di vista energetico, del processo dì lavaggio.
