Patent CA-2524911-A1 (CA)
Title: Q-modulated semiconductor laser with electro-absorptive grating structures
Inventor: HE JIAN-JUN
IPC: H01S5/026
Filed: 2005-11-07
Abstract: A Q-modulated semiconductor laser comprises a .lambda./4-phase-shifted distributed-feedback grating. Two isolated electrodes are deposited on top of the grating, and one electrode is deposited on the back side of the laser substrate as a common ground. The first top-side electrode covers a portion of the grating including the phase-shift region, and provides an optical gain for the laser when a constant current is injected. The second top-side electrode covers the remaining portion of the grating away from the phase-shift region, which acts as a Q-modulator of the laser. An electrical signal is applied on the second electrode to change the absorption coefficient of the waveguide in the modulator section, resulting in a change in the Q-factor of the laser, and consequently the lasing threshold and output power. The integrated Q-modulated laser has advantages of high speed, high extinction ratio, low wavelength chirp and low cost.

Abstract: A method of calculating the required cylindrical power of a toric implant by using both the measured pre-operative corneal/ocular astigmatism and the predicted surgically-induced astigmatism. The post-operative corneal/ocular astigmatism is predicted using power vector analysis of the surgical technique employed by the surgeon. Such a method provides a more accurate method of calculating the required spherocylindrical refractive power of the implant.  The method can be implemented manually, but preferably is automated by implementation on a computer through appropriate software.
