Title: Technique for the fabrication of high resolution led printheads
Inventor: WOODFIELD RICHARD
IPC: B41J2/45
Filed: 2002-06-12
Abstract: A method of fabricating high resolution, light emitting devices for printheads and the like is disclosed. An epitaxial layer of an alloy compound such as GaAs:P is used as the host material. Typically, p-type material is diffused into n-type material to form planar and isolated p-n junctions that provide individual light emitting pixels. In the method of this invention the shape of each pixel and the gap between pixels is controlled by tailoring the dimensions of the aperture through which thermal diffusion takes place and by providing a layer of modulation material over the diffusion aperture. This combination results in the control of lateral diffusion parameters such that both the shape of the pixels and the gap between can be controlled.

Title: Variable attenuation of free-space light beams
Inventor: RAMASWAMI RAJIV
IPC: G02B6/35
Filed: 2001-03-16
Abstract: One aspect is a method for controllably attenuating the beam of light (108) coupled between incoming and outgoing optical fibers (106) by misaligning mirror surfaces (116a, 116b) included of an optical switching module (100).  Misalignment of the mirror surfaces (116a and 116b) causes only a portion of the beam of light (108) propagating along the incoming optical fiber (106), which is less than when the light beam deflectors' mirror surfaces (116) are precisely aligned, to propagate along the outgoing optical fiber (108). Thus, the optical switching module (100) controllably attenuates the beam of light (108) coupled between the incoming and the outgoing optical fibers (106).  Another aspect is a variable-optical-attenuator ("VOA") (212) that includes an optically reflective membrane (222) upon which the beam of light (108) impinges. Application of an electrostatic field between an adjacent electrode (228) and the membrane (222) deforms the membrane (222) thereby attenuating an impinging beam of light (108).

Title: Method for controlling wind angle and waywind during strand package buildup
Inventor: SCARSELLA DONALD
IPC: B65H54/38
Filed: 2001-03-16
Abstract: A moving strand (14) is provided and a size is applied to the strand. A coll et (22) is rotated to wind the strand and build a package. The strand is reciprocated with a strand reciprocator (30) to lay the strand at a wind ang le on the package surface (20) as the package rotates. A rotatable collet receives the strand to build a package. A strand reciprocator is mounted to guide the strand from edge to edge (20a) of the package and to lay the stran d in a helical pattern on the package surface as the package rotates. The coll et (22) and the cam (32) for the strand reciprocator are driven by motors. A collet inverter drive (70) and a cam inverter drive (72) control the rotational speed of the collet and cam, respectively. A controller (68) is operatively connected to control the collet and cam inverter drives. A memor y device such as a computer (66) provides information to the controller of the  waywind and wind angle as a function of package buildup time. An encoder can  be operatively connected to each motor to provide feedback information to th e controller relating to the rotational speed of the collet and the cam. The wind angle can remain constant while the relative rotational speed of the collet and the cam are varied as a function of package buildup time. Alternatively, the wind angle and the relative rotational speed of the colle t and the cam can be varied as a function of package buildup time.
