Abstract: A novel and inventive hand held powder-fed laser fusion welding torch providing manual flexibility for laser welding with powder-fed material. The hand held laser includes a body, handle, and nozzle assembly. The nozzle may be shrouded by a cover that is slightly spaced apart from the nozzle. The gap between the two may provide space through which inert gas may flow. Laser light from a remote source shines through the nozzle's central aperture. The nozzle aperture may be circumscribed by powder channel outlets aligned upon a working focal point coincident with the laser beam to treat a workpiece. A proximity sensor may enable selective welding torch operation according to the presence of a workpiece.

Abstract: A telecommunications network features a subscription and notification function (100) whereby a first node (NA) subscribes to a notification service of a second node (NB). The first node (NA) generates a subscription request message (1-1) which is received at the second node (NB). The subscription request message specifies at least one, and preferably plural, parameters of the second node for subscription reporting purposes. The second node performs appropriate monitoring with respect to the parameter(s), and generates a notification message (1-3) upon occurrence of one of (1) expiration of a periodic notification interval; and (2) attainment of a threshold associated with the parameter of the node. The notification message (1-3) includes a report of the parameter of the node. One or more parameters of the second node are either monitored and/or reported in the notification message (1-3).

Abstract: A method of controlling an external-cavity tuneable laser which has a wavelength-elective tuneable mirror, in which wavelength selectivity is achieved by an electrical signal provided by an alternating voltage. The tuneable mirror has a liquid crystal material, a diffraction grating and a planar waveguide optically interacting with the grating. The diffraction grating and the waveguide form a resonant structure that reflects only a selected resonance wavelength from among all the other wavelengths impinging thereon. Depending on the amplitude of the voltage applied to the tunable mirror, the tuneable mirror reflects radiation only at a given wavelength. The lasing output wavelength of the laser is selected to correspond to the resonance wavelength of the tuneable mirror. Accurate selection of the emission wavelength (frequency) of the tuneable laser by the tuneable mirror can be derived from the analysis of the signal modulation induced by the AC voltage applied to the tuneable mirror.
