Abstract: Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein optisches System zur Überlagerung mehrerer optischer Wellen. Durch die daraus resultierende Interferenz können verschiedenste Muster für die Photolithografie, die Lasermaterialbearbeitung, eine strukturierte Beleuchtung oder die Messtechnik erzeugt werden. 
     Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren und der Anordnung zur Realisierung einer schaltbaren optischen Apertur, wird ein einfallendes, räumlich kohärentes Lichtbündel (1) in Amplitude und/oder Phase und/oder Polarisation moduliert, durch Linsenarrays (5,6) in Subaperturen aufgeteilt, diese Subaperturen durch Fokussierung in Kugelwellen umgewandelt, von einer Transformationsoptik (8) als ebene Wellen auf die Objektebene (8) kollimiert und dort überlagert werden. 
     Mit dieser Methode ist die Erzeugung räumlich hochfrequenter Strukturen über große Felder möglich, wie sie beispielsweise in der diffraktiven Optik benötigt werden. Die Zahl der zum Interferenzfeld beitragenden optischen Wellen kann hierbei sehr groß gewählt werden. Bei einer XGA-Auflösung (1024x768 Pixel) würden 786.432 ebene Wellen zum Interferenzfeld beitragen.

Abstract: A light concentrator is described, for a device for the conversion of solar radiation into electrical, thermal or chemical energy, capable of conveying the radiation towards a surface of the conversion device (20'). The concentrator (10, 10', 10", 10''') comprises at least one portion of .Fresnel lens of rotational symmetry, one face (11) of which has a plurality of crests (12) disposed concentrically about a centre (C) so as to form a segmented transverse profile (13) of the portion of Fresnel lens. The profile (13) is formed in such a manner that the focal distance (F) of the Fresnel lens is variable in dependence on the radial distance (r lens ) from the centre (C) of the lens. The variation of the focal distance (F) is determined such that, when the Fresnel lens is illuminated by polychromatic radiation, the superposition of the distributions of irradiance, produced by the lens at the individual wavelengths constituting the spectrum of the incident radiation, generates a substantially uniform distribution of polychromatic irradiance on the conversion device (20').

Abstract: A simulator piston (177) is slidably fitted in a control piston (90) to
form a stroke liquid chamber (182) between itself and an end wall of
a control piston (90). A port (183) which is closed at a forward limit of
the control piston (90) with respect to a backup piston (88) is provided
in the end wall of the control piston (90). A first reaction piston (126)
which constantly abuts against the end wall of the control piston (90)
and a second reaction piston (127) which abuts against the end wall of
the control piston (90) when the control piston (90) advances toward the
backup piston (88) through a predetermined travel distance or more,
are relatively slidably mounted on the backup piston (88) so that
hydraulic pressure of the boosted hydraulic pressure chamber (25) acts
on their front ends. Thus, it is possible to curb increase in a
stroke and reaction of a brake operating member (11,179) which would be
invalidated by a brake stroke simulator (14) when a hydraulic power
source (12) fails, and avoid insufficient strokes of the brake operating
member (11,179) even if spikes are inputted.

Abstract: A position sensor using a novel structured light generating scale or target member is provided. An imaging array is capable of measuring the relative translation and orientation of the structured light generating scale or target member in X, Y, Z, yaw, pitch, and roll ("6D") simultaneously, and with high precision. The target member includes an array of lenses that provide an array of structured light patterns that diverge, converge, or both, to change the size of the corresponding structured light image as a function of the "Z" coordinate of the relative position, in various embodiments. The X-Y position of each individual structured light image on the imaging array varies with the relative X-Y position of the structured light generating target member, and the shape of structured light image changes as a function of the relative angular orientation. Accordingly, three or more structured light images analyzed in the same image are usable to determine a 6D measurement between the structured light generating target member and the array detector. X and Y displacement of the target member can be accumulated by known methods and the other 6D measurement components are absolute measurements at any position.

Abstract: Halogenated resin composition are prepared without using halogen acids by combining at least one silicone intermediate, with an optional silane, an organic halogen-containing ingredient having functional groups selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, amine, and carboxyl groups, and a resin selected from the group consisting of hydroxy- and epoxy-functional resins. One or more amine curing agent and/or catalyst selected from the group consisting of orgalaometallic compounds, acids, bases and mixtures thereof can optionally be added to facilitate ambient temperature curing of the resulting composition. The combined ingredients undergo hydrolysis reactions to form a halogenated organooxysilane that condenses to form a cross-linked halogenated polysiloxane composition. The resin also reacts with the condensing halogenated organooxysilane to introduce itself into the cross-linked halogenated polysiloxane and, thereby forming the halogenated polysiloxane resin composition. The composition is prepared without using an inorganic halogen acid, and is fully-cured at ambient temperature by exposure to atmospheric moisture to form a protective film, or alternatively a composite (10), having improved properties of chemical, abrasion, corrosion, weather, flame, and ultraviolet resistance.
