IPC: G02B6/122
Filed: 2003-05-16
Abstract: An optical element using one-dimensional photonic
crystal (20) according to the invention includes a multilayer film (11),
which is achieved by an element processed into a triangular
prism shape. A phase modulation unit (6) is provided so as to be
adjacent or abutting to a light input end surface of the optical
element. Input light is phase-modulated by the phase
modulation unit in the same period and direction as those of the
photonic crystal so that only specific high-order band light
can be propagated through the optical element. When this
optical element is formed in an optical waveguide, a small-size
spectroscopic device having high resolving power can be
provided.

Abstract: A range selector issues a range selection command signal representative of an operation range of a shift-by-wire type automatic transmission meeting with a driver's intention. The operating range is at least one of P(parking)-range, R(reverse)-range, N(neutral)-range and D(drive)-range. An actuator causes the transmission to assume a certain operation range when receiving an instruction signal. A control unit issues the instruction signal by processing the range selection command signal, so that the transmission is able to assume an operation range that meets with the driver's intention. The control unit is configured to carry out, when the range selector fails to issue the range selection command signal, presuming a range selection intended by the driver based on a previous operation of the range selector; and based on the presumption, causing through the actuator the transmission to actually carry out at least one of first and second range selection operations. The first range selection operation meets with the driver's intention and the second range selection operation is to maintain the operation range that has been kept just before the failure of the range selector.

Abstract: The present invention provides method and apparatus for automatically correcting aberrations in a charged-particle beam. The method and apparatus permit a human operator to automatically and easily correct aberrations in the beam unconsciously of a complex procedure of aberration correction. The apparatus has a line profile extractor for extracting line profiles from the probe profile of the charged-particle beam when it has been defocused. A line profile feature amount extractor calculates amounts of features indicative of features of the line profile from the extractedlineprofiles, i.e., µ, σ, and ρ indicating left-and-right asymmetry, width, and unevenness around the center, respectively. An aberration amount calculator calculates amounts of aberrations corresponding to aberrations, respectively, in the charged-particle beam from the amounts of features µ, σ, and p. An aberration amount decision-making device makes a decision as to whether the total amount of aberration in the charged-particle beam calculated based on the amounts of aberrations is less than a given threshold value. A feedback amount-setting device specifies at least one of the amounts of aberrations and calculates an amount of feedback for reducing the specified amount of aberration. An aberration corrector corrects the aberrations in the beam, based on the amount of feedback.
