Abstract: For micromovement of an object relative to a predetermined processing or analysing position, a micromanipulator is disclosed which can be employed, for example, for executing object movements in scanning tunnel microscopes (RTM). The micromanipulator has a plurality of movement elements (2, 2', 2"), which both support and move the object (1). For executing micromovements, the movement elements can be adjusted piezoelectrically, and the supports (3, 3', 3") can be displaced by the deformation of piezoelectric material. In order to be able to execute micromovements with the micromanipulator too, micromovements can be carried out with at least one of the movement elements (2). The support (3) of the movement element (2) itself is suitable for this. The support (3) can be inserted in a piezoelectrically deformable sleeve (7). However, it is also possible to design a partial section (14) of the baseplate (5a) to be macromovable, on which the movement elements (2a, 2a', 2") are fastened. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A millimeter wave sensing device is disclosed comprising a local oscillator source generating a millimeter wave signal which is mixed with millimeter wave radiation reflected from or emitted by objects in a field of view. The mixing is performed in a staring array of mixer/detector elements which need not be mechanically or electronically scanned to generate signals responsive to the entire field of view. In a first embodiment of the invention, the device detects millimeter wave radiation emitted by or reflected from the object to be imaged. In a second embodiment of the invention, the oscillator used to provide the local oscillator signal is also used to illuminate the field of view. In the second embodiment of the invention, the oscillator signal is preferably linearly polarized, and a polarizing grid is used to separate the local oscillator signal and illumination beam and direct them in a simple and efficient manner. A twist reflector may also be used to rotate the polarization of a portion of the beam to direct it onto the mixer/detector array for mixing with the received signal from the field of view. Improved constructions of millimeter wave source and mixer/detector elements are also disclosed, which greatly simplify construction of the device.

Abstract: The invention relates to the improvement of a method and a device for measuring radiation absorption by a medium in order to achieve and maintain a high measurement accuracy with low drift over a long service period, without the need to replace the components used at fairly short intervals. To achieve the object, it is proposed, according to the method, that radiation flashes of extremely short duration are transmitted through the medium and the radiation pulses received are expanded in time before being further processed. The device is designed in such a way that a radiation source has a flash (11, 12) and that an amplifier (15, 16) which expands the flash pulses received in time is connected to the output of a detector (13, 14). <IMAGE>

The pad can include a single insulating area surrounded by a heat sink area and a black coating can be provided on selected portions of the layers to improve heat radiating characteristics of the pad. For instance, the heat sink area can be coated with the black coating to radiate heat away from the pad at a desired location. The pad is particularly useful in shielding a heat sensitive component on one side of the pad from a heat source on the other side of the pad. The pad can be covered with a prescored and/or embossed metal sheet coated on one or both sides with adhesive. The sheet can also be used by itself for fixturing. The sheet can be secured to an object by heating to cause the adhesive to adhere to the object. The prescoring can be perforations in the sheet and the embossments can be in a diamond shaped cross-hatching configuration. <IMAGE>
