Patent EP-1549995-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ARSENAULT ANDRE
IPC: G02F1/19
Filed: 2003-10-09
Abstract: A method of wavelength tuning a composite material. The method includes the steps of: producing an ordered array of first constituents having a first refractive index embedded within a cross-linked metallopolymer network having a second refractive index different than the first refractive index, the ordered array of first constituents having a lattice spacing giving rise to Bragg diffraction when the composite material is illuminated; and switching the electronic configuration of the cross-linked metallopolymer network so that the cross-linked polymer network changes dimensions and modulates the lattice spacing of the ordered array of first constituents, which shifts the Bragg diffraction wavelength to a pre-selected wavelength.

Abstract: A method of enhanced sterilization with improved material compatibility. The
following enhancements have been made. First, repeated venting , evacuation, and plasma
treatments can be performed in the pre-plasma stage. Second, a lower power level can be
used in the post-plasma stage than in the pre-plasma stage. Third, after the post-plasma-stage,
the chamber can be held at atmospheric pressure or sub-atmospheric pressure for a
period of time after venting, before re-evacuating the chamber, rather than evacuating after
the chamber is vented to atmospheric pressure or sub-atmospheric pressure. Any of the three
enhancements may be used separately, and it is not necessary to practice all three
enhancements to obtain at least some of the benefits of enhanced sterilization with improved
material compatibility.

Abstract: The invention relates to a compatible optical scanner
with an improved laser modulator for recording or
reproduction apparatuses of optical recording media.
Although the input characteristic curves of older and
newer optical scanners fundamentally differ on account
of different modulator circuits, a circuit arrangement
for an optical scanner with an improved laser modulator
is specified which is completely compatible with
previously used optical scanners. The compatible
scanner with an improved laser modulator, which is a
laser modulator that at least partly or completely
switches the laser current, has, at its input, a means
for simulating the input characteristic curve of a
laser, which means is formed for example by
series-connected diodes D1...Dn or a zener diode that
interacts with a current mirror at the input of the
optical scanner. As a result, on the line providing the
current for regulating the light power of a laser, a
potential or a voltage corresponding to that of a laser
is generated even though an improved laser modulator is
connected. The potential or the voltage on the line is
then used in a known manner, for example for changing
over the sensitivity of a monitor diode used for
regulating the light power of two different lasers. The
area of application extends in particular to optical
scanners in recording or reproduction apparatuses of
optical recording media.
