Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé et un appareil permettant de fixer une carte (3) de circuit pourvue d'un châssis de protection (1, 4), la carte (3)de circuit étant fixée pratiquement près du centre de son axe long (B1   B2) de sorte que ses extrémités le long de son axe (B1   B2) le plus long puissent fléchir librement sans être gênées par le châssis (1, 4). Dans le cas où le châssis (1, 4) de la carte (3) de circuit subirait un impact ou une chute, et du fait que le choc mécanique soit transmis du point d'impact sur le châssis (1, 4) uniquement au centre proche de la carte (3), les composants (2) de la carte (3) du circuit se trouvant éloignés du centre de la carte (3) n'accuseront qu'un choc mécanique réduit. Des joints à brasure tendre accuseront également moins de contrainte mécanique du fait que le pliage de la carte (3) sera faible. Cette réduction du choc mécanique sur la carte (3) de circuit augmentent les chances des composants (2) de ne pas être endommagés ou de ne pas se détacher de la carte (3) du circuit.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and devices for controlling the propagation of Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs) using Surface Plasmon Polariton Band Gap (SPPBG) regions. The SPPBG regions are regions of one or more interfaces supporting the propagation of SPPs on which SPPs experience a periodic modulation of the dielectric properties of the media into which its electromagnetic field extend. The frequency range of the band gap is determined by the period of the modulation. SPPBG regions prohibit propagation of SPPs having a frequency within its band gap.By forming transmitting regions in the SPPBG regions the present invention provides ultra-compact SPP waveguides. The present invention can be utilised to form compact integrated SPP/optical circuits. Also, the present invention provides cavities supporting standing SPP-waves for field localisation. Such field localisation can provide very high field intensities and can be used in various sensor applications.The devices of the present invention provide a number of advantages over photonic components since SPPs propagates on 2-dimensional interfaces, and only confinement in the plane of propagation is needed. This allows for a very simple production of the devices according to the present invention.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un étage de puissance à double mât totémique (ou pont H) qui comporte quatre dispositifs de puissance (Q1,Q2, Q3, Q4), au moins deux desquels sont commandés par des signaux de commande (VG1, VG2, VG3, VG4) à modulation d'impulsions en durée pour modifier des trajectoires de courant du courant de charge s'écoulant à travers la charge excitée (110). Un détecteur de courant (130) servant à mesurer le courant de charge comporte un transformateur (120) doté d'un bobinage secondaire (S1) ayant un nombre N de spires, et un bobinage principal. Ce dernier comporte quatre sections de bobinage séparées (P1, P2, P3, P4), chacune étant respectivement couplée en série avec un des quatre dispositifs de puissance de l'étage de puissance. Les différentes sections du bobinage principal comportent un nombre de spires différent, de façon que différents rapports du nombre de spires se situent entre le bobinage principal et le bobinage secondaire pour différentes trajectoires de courant, générant ainsi un signal modulé sur le bobinage secondaire. Le signal modulé est démodulé pour obtenir une représentation ou une reproduction précise du courant s'écoulant à travers la charge.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions containing a mixture of cholesterol sulfate and an exfoliant. The exfoliant can be N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, N-acetylgalactosamine, or a combination thereof. The combination of cholesterol sulfate with the exfoliant surprisingly enhances the skin barrier even though the activity of each of the components is opposite the other. In addition, because of the ability to enhance or repair the skin barrier function, methods of maintaining or improving a healthy skin barrier are included in the present invention by apply to the skin an effective amount of the mixture of cholesterol sulfate with the exfoliant. The mixture can also be useful in treating or preventing damage to the skin, where the damage is caused by a comprised skin barrier function. As a result of improved skin barrier function, the appearance of lines and wrinkles is generally reduced; rough and dry skin conditions are also improved.

Abstract: A method of preparing a coated optical fiber for coupling
to a face of an optical device includes placing the coated fiber
so that it extends through a stripping station, a cleaning station
and a cleaving station. A stripper at the stripping station
is brought into engagement with the fiber and relative motion
between the fiber and the stripping station, the cleaning station
and the cleaving station is effected lengthwise of the fiber,
whereby the coating is stripped from a medial length segment
of the fiber as the cleaning device at the cleaning station is
activated for cleaning fragments of coating material from the
medial length segment of the fiber as the medial length segment
passes through the cleaning station and the cleaning device is
deactivated and stripping is discontinued. The fiber is
positioned with the medial length segment at the cleaving
station, the fiber is clamped at a location that is upstream
of the cleaving station with respect to the direction from the
stripping station to the cleaving station, and the fiber is
cleaved within the medial length segment, thereby providing the
fiber with a freshly cleaved end region.
