Abstract: A conical illuminator for use in colorimetry, spectrophotometry, densitometry or sensitometry. In a preferred embodiment, light from a source such as a pulsed xenon lamp is integrated within an integrating chamber. The light source may be placed in a second integrating chamber adjacent to the aforementioned integrating chamber. Alternatively, the lamp may be placed directly within the integrating chamber. The light is emitted through an exit port and conformed to a conical configuration, according to a pre-selected standard, via an annular stop. An imaging optic relays the conformed light uniformly onto a sample plane. The annular stop is placed at or near the tangential focal length of the imaging optic. The annular stop may be coated with a light absorbing coating, or can be formed with a grooved or mirrored surface. Alternatively, in lieu of an integrating chamber, a diffuser may be employed for homogenizing the light. Various configurations of the imaging optic and annular stop are possible.

Abstract: A technique is disclosed for utilizing direct-write electron-beam photolithography and holographic optical exposure to form gratings in optoelectronic structures. The direct-write e-beam process is used to form rectangular grating teeth in a mask substrate, where the mask is then used as a phase mask to transfer the pattern to the optoelectronic device. Advantageously, the utilization of a direct write e-beam technique to form the grating pattern on the photomask allows for the formation of any desired number and location of abrupt phase shifts, multiple grating pitches, alignment fiducials, and any other desired features. Therefore, a single exposure of the direct write e-beam mask allows for a plurality of different grating patterns to be simultaneously printed.

Abstract: A cryogenic cooling system having a mechanism for canceling vibration at a fundamental frequency and at harmonics thereof. The inventive system includes a first apparatus (28, 32) for cooling a mass. The first apparatus (28, 32) creates a vibration at a first frequency and a second frequency. In a typical application, the first frequency is a fundamental frequency and the second frequency is a harmonic of the first frequency. Often several harmonics are present. The invention includes a second apparatus (30, 34) for substantially eliminating vibration at the first frequency and a third apparatus (48, 50) for substantially eliminating vibration at the second frequency. The second apparatus includes a mass (30) and a motor (34) for driving same. The mass (30) is disposed to counter the vibration created by the first apparatus when the motor (34) is driven by a first current. The third apparatus includes a sensor (48) for detecting the vibration at the second frequency and providing an output in response to a sensed force F resulting therefrom. The third apparatus further includes a feedback circuit (50) for providing a second current for driving the motor. The second current is the sum of the first current and a feedback current I b2 . The feedback current I b2  is equal to -G f (s)F, where -G f (s) is a feedback transfer function. The feedback transfer function is a product of a first transfer function H I (s) representing dynamics of the second apparatus required to cancel the vibration at the first frequency and a second transfer function G D (s) representing the dynamics of the second means required to cancel the harmonic vibration.

Abstract: An imaging agent for ultrasound to be administered into a vein is provided. More specifically, an imaging agent for ultrasound containing microbubbles, which has a long-life and is stable within a human body even after is has passed through a lung, and a method for producing the same, are provided. 
     A method for producing an imaging agent for ultrasound comprises a mixing step wherein a mixture of water, Sodium Stearate, Saponin and CaCl₂ and gas are mixed by a homogenizer for forming bubbles, and a separation step wherein bubbles having a desired size are separated according to their buoyancy after the mixing step. The mixing step further includes two stages, i.e., a low speed mixing stage and a high speed mixing stage. In the low speed mixing stage, a shaft of the homogenizer is immersed into a solution containing a preset amount of Sodium Stearate, Saponin, and CaCl₂, which is mixed at a low rotation speed for a given period of time and is then left for a given period. Then, such a process is repeated. In the high speed mixing stage, said solution is mixed for a given period at a high rotaion speed. After this 2-stage mixing step, the separation is performed by using a burette, thereby obtaining microbubbles of a desired size.

Title: Electrochemical surface analysis using deoxygenated gel electrolyte
Inventor: WHITE JOHN T
IPC: G01N27/416
Filed: 1995-08-11
Abstract: Electrochemical surface analysis using a deoxygenated gel electrolyte provides advantages over a liquid electrolyte in processes such as sequential electrochemical reduction analysis. In sequential electrochemical reduction analysis, a solderable portion of an electronic component or circuit board to be tested is placed in contact with a deoxygenated gel electrolyte such as a borate buffer solution having a gelling agent. The gel electrolyte prevents capillary attraction up or along a lead of the component so that the power source cathode lead does not contact the electrolyte and electrochemical analysis can be localized to the area of interest, such as the portion of the component lead to be soldered. Interfering effects of atmospheric oxygen are minimized for deaerated gel electrolytes because convection mixing is practically absent and diffusion is generally a very slow process in a gel. For a gel electrolyte saturated with inert gas and including an oxygen scavenger, brief exposure to oxygen as test specimens are changed does not affect the electrochemical analysis. In some cases, it is be possible to perform electrochemical analysis in ambient atmosphere rather than in an inert gas as generally required by the prior art.

IPC: F01N13/04

Abstract: The exhaust gas purification device according to the present invention utilizes two NO x  absorbents (7a,7b) in order to remove NO x  from the exhaust gas of an engine (1) operated at a lean air-fuel ratio. The NO x  absorbents (7a,7b) are disposed, in series, in the exhaust passage (3) of the engine and a nozzle (12a) for supplying a reducing agent is disposed in the exhaust passage at a position between the two NO x  absorbents. Further, the device includes switching valves (5) for changing the direction of the exhaust gas flow in the exhaust gas passage. When the switching valves are set to direct the exhaust gas flow to one direction, the exhaust gas first flows through one of the NO x  absorbent (first NO x  absorbent) (7a), and after passing through the first NO x  absorbent, the reducing agent is supplied to the exhaust gas before it flows into the other NO x  absorbent (second NO x  absorbent) (7b). Thus, the first NO x  absorbent (7a) absorbs NO x  in the exhaust gas, and the NO x  absorbed by the second NO x  absorbent is released from the second NO x  absorbent. When the switching valves (5) are switched, the exhaust gas flows in the opposite direction, and flows through the second NO x  absorbent (7b) and the first NO x  absorbent (7a) in this order. In this case, the second NO x  absorbent (7b) absorbs NO x  in the exhaust gas, and the NO x  absorbed by the first NO x  absorbent (7a) is released and reduced to N₂. Therefore, by reversing the direction of the exhaust gas periodically, the absorbing operation of NO x  and releasing/reducing operation of NO x  are performed by two NO x  absorbents alternately. Thus, it becomes possible to remove NO x  in the exhaust gas continuously while the NO x  absorbents are prevented from being saturated by the absorbed NO x .
