Abstract: Formation of a closed tubular casing using a fixed, programmable-laser welding stand involves progressively moving the two edges of a strip to form a joining line, applying a fine strip of weakly-reflecting liquid or paste over the join, adjusting the relative distance of the laser beam and the join so that beam is focussed on the join, and relative displacement of the beam and the join. The welding stand (2) comprises a device (10) for the continuous application of the weakly reflecting material into a container, and a laser beam emission device (9) located downstream from the former device (10). The device (10) for the continuous application of the weakly reflecting material is in the form of either a wheel supplied by gravity from the reservoir and supported on the joining line (5), or a spraying nozzle supplied under pressure from the reservoir. A cleaning device (18) for removing residues of the weakly reflecting material is provided downstream of the laser beam emission device. The thin strip (3) whose edges are to be joined is selected from aluminum or copper. The weakly-reflecting material (6) is a composition comprising at least one pigment such as micronized carbon and at least one binder selected from polyunsaturated or aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzol.

Inventor: MANKUDE HARIPRASAD B
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1999-11-08
Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that allows an
I/O request to proceed when a primary server that is processing the I/O request
fails, and a secondary server takes over for the primary server. Upon receiving an
I/O request from an application running on a client, the system stores parameters
for the I/O request on the client, and sends the I/O request to the primary server.
Next, the system allows the application on the client to continue executing while
the I/O request is being processed. If the primary server fails after the I/O request
is sent to the primary server, but before an I/O request completion indicator
returns from the primary server, the system retries the I/O request to the secondary
server using the parameters stored on the client. The I/O request may originate
from a number of different sources, including a file system access, an I/O request
from a database system, and a paging request from a virtual memory system. In a
variation on the above embodiment, the act of storing the parameters for the I/O
request on the client includes creating a distributed object defined within a
distributed object-oriented programming environment, and sending a reference to
the distributed object to the primary server to be stored on the primary server.
This causes a distributed operating system to keep track of the reference so that if
the primary server fails, the reference count on the distributed object drops to zero
and the distributed operating system notifies the client that the distributed object is
unreferenced. This allows the client to deduce that the primary server has failed.

IPC: G02F1/313
Filed: 1999-05-04
Abstract: A piezoelectric optical switch includes a planar Mach-Zehnder optical device
having a piezoelectric rib disposed on one or both of the waveguide structures. The
piezoelectric rib deforms the waveguide structure creating a strain vector that alters the
optical path of the waveguide. The piezoelectric rib is offset from the propagation path
in the waveguide. This yields several important advantages. By positioning the
piezoelectric rib away from the waveguide, the strain components in the propagation
path of the waveguide in the directions perpendicular to the direction of propagation,
e.g., in the x-direction and the y-direction, are negligible. Since strains in these
directions create birefringence, elimination of these strains will minimize the
birefringence. The elimination or reduction of birefringence is greatly desired because
birefringence degrades the extinction ratio at the outputs of the Mach-Zehnder device.
Thus, the piezoelectric switch of the present invention provides a high extinction ratio
and a low power consumption and small switching time expected of piezoelectric
devices.

Abstract: An exposure method is disclosed, in which a surface of a
wafer can be conformed to an image plane highly accurately
even when an angle of inclination of a running surface of a
wafer stage is varied when a pattern for a semiconductor
device or the like is transferred onto the wafer in
accordance with the scanning exposure system. The focusing
is performed in an exposure area (46) on the basis of a focus
position detected in a pre-reading area (81, 82) in which the
focus position can be detected highly accurately although the
detection range is narrow, disposed in front of the exposure
area (46) on the wafer in the scanning direction. In order
to allow the surface of the wafer to be included in the
detection range of the focus position in the pre-reading area
(81, 82), the focus position of the wafer is roughly
conformed to the image plane on the basis of a result of
detection at a rough detecting point (84A, 84B, 85A, 85B) for
roughly detecting the focus position in front of the pre-reading
area (81, 82) with a wide detection range.
