Inventor: TAN BENJAMIN
IPC: G01N21/55
Filed: 2001-01-31
Abstract: A method of measuring the absorption of a lens covered with multilayers of
dielectric materials comprises directing a beam of polarized light against the
dielectric materials, polarizing the diffused beam of reflected light, and measuring
the energy in the polarized diffused beam of reflected light, which is representative
of the reflective and absorptive properties of the multilayers of the dielectric
materials. The diffused beam is polarized at an angle that is complementary to the
angle of the linearly polarized light that is directed against the dielectric materials.
The complementary angle serves to null the diffused beam of reflected light.

La barre d'équilibrage comporte une pluralité de segments (202, 203) indépendants dont la longueur peut varier sans modification de la longueur totale de la barre d'équilibrage. Les segments de barre d'équilibrage indépendants présentent une fréquence de résonance réduite qui est égale à la fréquence de résonance du tube d'écoulement rempli de matériau en écoulement et vibrant avec celui-ci. Cette fréquence réduite des segments de barre d'équilibrage leur permet d'avoir une réaction du type Coriolis de l'écoulement de matériau en réponse aux déflexions de Coriolis de la barre d'équilibrage. Les déflexions du type Coriolis des segments de la barre d'équilibrage sont en opposition de phase par rapport aux parties associées du tube d'écoulement, de sorte que la sensibilité du débitmètre à l'écoulement de matériau est augmentée grâce à l'amplitude augmentée des capteurs (LPO et RPO) fixés sur le tube d'écoulement. Plusieurs modes de réalisation sont décrits.
