Abstract: An optical integrated circuit fabrication method of simple realisation by
exposure of an end portion of a core layer structuring an
optical waveguide. Using an exposure apparatus, image exposure is carried out with a light
beam which is modulated by a spatial modulation element in accordance with image
information. A predetermined area of a photosensitive material (a photoresist), which is
coated on the core layer which is a material of the optical integrated circuit is exposed by a
light beam (UV) and patterned to form an etching mask.
An inclined face is formed at the end portion of the core layer by exposure and
patterning by the light beam, the exposure amounts of which are controlled
such that the end portion of the etching mask has an
inclined face structure. When the core layer is worked by etching using this etching mask,
working of the core layer at the end portion of the core layer progresses in proportion to the film
thickness of the etching mask, and the inclined face is formed.

Abstract: A system and method for improving handoff performance of a cellular
telecommunications network having a serving exchange and a serving cell in which a mobile
station is engaged in a call. The system adapts a first timeout period during which signal strength
measurements are collected from a plurality of cells that neighbor the serving cell. A variable
timing mechanism measures time periods starting when a handoff measurement request is
generated. The system then sets the variable timing mechanism to measure a specified time
period for each of the plurality of cells, collects the signal strength measurements during the
specified time period, and processes the signal strength measurements when the specified time
period expires. The system also adapts a second timeout period during which a handoff request
from the mobile station is queued while awaiting an available voice channel in a target cell for
handoff. The system measures a default value for the second timeout period, changes the default
second timeout period to an adapted second timeout period for which there is a maximum
probability of handing off a call associated with the handoff request, and determines whether the
handoff request should be queued for the default second timeout period or the adapted second
timeout period.

Abstract: A pedal force sensing apparatus includes a pedal force input shaft, a force action sleeve, a torque output shaft, at least one elastomer, a micro optical pickup head module, a diversion sleeve, a linear sliding bush and a displacement sensor. The pedal force input shaft to which an input torque is applied drives the force action sleeve combined with it to simultaneously rotate. Sequentially, the force action sleeve applies forces to the elastomer to have reaction force acting on the torque output shaft. When a reverse torque from the loading of the electric bicycle is applied to the opposite end of the torque output shaft, the rotations of the torque output shaft and the force action sleeve occur, and relative angular displacement between them simultaneously exists. Because the constraint relation exists between the first guiding pin of the force action sleeve and the spiral slot of the diversion sleeve, the first guiding pin has a push force acting on the diversion sleeve along the axial direction. On the other hand, the second guiding pin of the diversion sleeve slides along the leading groove of the torque output shaft, and therefore the relative angular movement does not exist between them. After the axial push forces from the first guiding pin acts on the diversion sleeve, the diversion sleeve has a linear displacement along the axial direction. The diversion sleeve and linear sliding bush only have the conjunction of axial movement, hence the linear sliding bush has the same axial displacement for the displacement sensor to detect the magnitude of the pedal force.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for isolating a defined quantity of
DNA target material from other substances in a medium. The method may be carried
out using a known quantity of a silica-containing solid support, such as silica
magnetic particles, having a definable capacity for reversibly binding DNA target
material, and DNA target material in excess of the binding capacity of the particles.
The methods of the present invention involve forming a complex of the silica
magnetic particles and the DNA target material in a mixture of the medium and
particles, and separating the complex from the mixture using external magnetic force.
The DNA target material may then be eluted from the complex. The quantity of DNA
target material eluted may be determined based on a calibration model. The methods
of the present invention permit isolation of DNA target material which is within a
known quantity range. The methods of the invention eliminate the step of
quantitating purified biological samples prior to further processing, such as
amplification, Short Tandem Repeat (STR) analysis, and DNA sequencing. Samples
of the DNA target materials may be obtained from liquid or solid media, such as
liquid blood or paper.
