Abstract: A voltage resonant converter is provided with a secondary-side parallel resonant circuit and a secondary-side series resonant circuit, and a loose coupling state is established in which the coupling coefficient k of an isolation converter transformer PIT is about 0.7 or less. Thus, a constant-voltage control characteristic is obtained as a sharp unimodal characteristic, which narrows a switching frequency control region required for stabilizing of an output voltage. In addition, a primary-side parallel resonant frequency fo1, a secondary-side parallel resonant frequency fo2 and a secondary-side series resonant frequency fo3 are designed so that a favourable power conversion efficiency is obtained. Moreover, an active clamp circuit 10 is provided to suppress the peak level of a resonant voltage pulse, to thereby allow use of low-breakdown-voltage products, for example in a switching element. The voltage resonant converter therefore provides a highly efficient wide-ranging voltage conversion.

Abstract: An optical waveguide grating with radiative mode-coupling properties, with exceptional stability and reliability as an optical component, wherein the central wavelength of the rejection band has a low temperature dependence, due to the use of silica glass doped with germanium and boron for the core. 
The rejection bandwidth can be narrowed without increasing the grating length by forming the radiative mode-coupled optical waveguide grating in an optical waveguide wherein the mean relative refractive index difference of the core is greater than that of optical communication waveguides. The rejection can be increased by reducing the occurrence of cases wherein propagation modes of the core coupled to cladding modes once again couple to the core in palnar optical waveguide gratings formed by making periodic changes in the waveguide structure along the direction of propagation of light in an optical waveguide having a cladding with a lower refractive index than the core surrounding the core, by making the thickness of the cladding at least thirteen times the thickness of the core.
