Patent EP-1042702-A1 (EP)
Inventor: JONES JOHN CLIFFORD
IPC: G02F1/139
Filed: 1998-12-16
Abstract: A bistable nematic liquid crystal device cell is provided with a surface alignment treatment on one cell wall which is capable of sustaining two stable states in which the liquid crystal director is in the same azimuthal plane but at two different tilt angles out of the plane of the cell. This surface may be provided using a symmetric or asymmetric grating structure formed by photolithographic or embossing techniques in which the local orientation of the liquid crystal molecules at the surface is normal to the local direction of the surface. Correct choice of the grating period, depth, shape and anchoring properties leads to two stable director configurations: one with the director normal to the plane of the cell at the grating surface, and the other with the director at a pretilt usually in the range 0{ to 60{ from the cell plane. This surface is combined with a monostable surface which leads to substantially planar homogeneous alignment formed e.g. by a rubbed polymer, or a grating surface. The preferred direction of the monostable surface may be arranged to be at any angle with respect to the grating grooves on the opposite surface. In one embodiment, the monostable surface is aligned parallel to the grooves so that in one state the director twists through 90{ from one surface to the other, whereas the other state has little or no twist. The cell may be switched by dc pulses which couple to the flexoelectric coefficients of the material. The material has a negative dielectric anisotropy and may include a chiral dopant to impart a preferred twist direction. The cell walls may be formed from rigid or flexible transparent material coated with electrode structures which form a matrix of pixels. Means for optical discrimination for the different states is provided by one or more polarisers, or a dye with or without a polariser, and/or other optic elements.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un réseau de télécommunications (40) possédant des cellules MTA contenant des paquets de protocole AAL2 transportés sur une première interface (54) entre deux noeuds (42, 44) du réseau. A l'aide des paquets de protocole AAL2, beaucoup de canaux utilisateur sont multiplexés sur un conteneur virtuel (VC) MTA entre les deux noeuds. Dans un des deux noeuds, désigné comme noeud de commande (44), les canaux utilisateur sont terminés par la mise en correspondance des paquets AAL2 des canaux utilisateur dans les cellules MTA modifiées ayant un protocole AAL différent de AAL2. Le protocole AAL utilisé pour les cellules MTA modifiées et désigné AAL2 principal, exige que les paquets AAL2 transportés dans la charge utile des cellules MTA soient des paquets entiers et que la charge utile MTA n'ait pas de champ de départ de type AAL2. De préférence, seulement un paquet AAL2 entier est transporté par charge utile des cellules MTA dans le protocole principal AAL2. Le termineur des canaux utilisateur AAL2 au niveau du noeud de commande apparaît, de préférence, au niveau d'une ressource groupée et centrale désignée comme unité de gestion des cellules (32). Grâce à l'unité de gestion des cellules (32) et au protocole principal AAL2, on peut avantageusement utiliser un équipement MTA standard, p.ex. un commutateur MTA (30). Un réseau de télécommunications mobile est cité comme exemple de mode de réalisation.

Abstract: The invention, relates to a method for optical
fiber communication. An optical signal having chirping
determined by a chirp parameter is output to an optical
fiber transmission line. The optical signal transmitted
by the optical fiber transmission line is converted into
an electrical signal. A bit error of the electrical
signal is detected. Then, the chirp parameter is
controlled so that the bit error detected above is
reduced. According to this method, the chirp parameter is
controlled so that the bit error detected is reduced.
Accordingly, a chirping occurring in the optical fiber
transmission line can be suppressed by the chirping of
the optical signal to be output to the optical fiber
transmission line, thereby compensating for chromatic
dispersion and nonlinearity.

Abstract: It is the object of the present invention to provide
an industrially useful process for the manufacture of
polyguluronic acids having degrees of polymerization less
than 20 and substantially free of mannuronic acid
contamination. Alginate salts of organic bases are quite
soluble in aqueous solution, and remain soluble in aqueous
solution throughout a hydrolysis reaction in the range of
pH values at which the acidic hydrolysis is effected at a
reasonably fast rate. Based on this finding, a solution
containing 5 wt.% or more of alginic acid prepared by
dissolving alginic acid in water by neutralization with an
organic base is provided and then hydrolyzed under acidic
conditions, followed by selective precipitation of
polyguluronic acids under acidic conditions.
