Inventor: BUELOW ROGER F II
IPC: F21V8/00
Filed: 2001-04-27
Granted: 2010-02-09
Abstract: System for directing light includes a light source (10) and a generally tubular, hollow coupling device (12,14) with an interior reflective surface for receiving light from the source (10) and an inlet and transmitting it as a generally diverging light beam at a reduced angle through an outlet (20). A thermal-isolating region (16) has an inlet (22) proximate an outlet (24) of the coupling device and an outlet for passing light to an optical member (26). An arrangement for splitting the light from the outlet of the foregoing region comprises a plurality of light guides (30). Each light guide (30) includes an inlet end (26a,38a) for receiving light from the thermal-isolating region and an outlet end for directing light to a remote location (24,28). The inlet ends are substantially coplanar with each other and form a substantially solid shape (26a,28a). The coupling device (12,14) and thermal isolating region (16) are shaped so as to distribute a respective, substantial amount of light to each of the plurality of light guides.

Granted: 2008-09-02
Abstract: A subscriber terminal using a method of controlling initial power ramp-up in CDMA systems by using short codes is disclosed. The subscriber terminal includes having its transmission power regulated, with means for transmitting a periodic signal at an initial predetermined power level and repeatedly retransmitting the periodic signal each retransmission occurring at successively higher power levels; means for receiving a confirmation signal, and means for terminating transmission of the periodic signal in response to the received confirmation; means for engaging in a closed loop power control procedure to regulate the subscriber unit transmission power, after the periodic signal transmission terminating; and means for transmitting a call signal. The subscriber terminal using a method of controlling initial power ramp-up in CDMA systems by using short codes is particularly useful for overcoming the problems of power overshoot and interference to other subscriber stations known in the art and to provide for a base station to quickly synchronize to the spreading code used by the subscriber unit.

Abstract: Selon la présente invention, des objets plats (2), en particulier des produits imprimés, sont dirigés individuellement par le biais d'éléments de maintien (3) au niveau d'un bord (10) d'objet, de manière à former des piles (20). Des groupes (1) d'objets (2), amenés les uns à la suite des autres, sont agencés sous la forme d'une pile. Les régions des objets opposées aux bords (10) maintenus sont superposées, pendant que les objets (2) restent maintenus. Les groupes empilés sont stabilisés par des moyens appropriés puis les objets (2) sont alors retirés de leur unité de maintien. Les groupes empilés (1) sont stabilisés par positionnement des zones d'objets opposées aux bords maintenus (10) sur une table d'empilage (23) pouvant être déplacée dans le sens vertical dans une cuve d'empilage (22) et/ou sur un support auxiliaire (31), puis pressées et cerclées par des moyens appropriés. Avant d'être déposés sur une table d'empilage (23), les groupes de piles (1), formés les uns à la suite des autres, peuvent être pivotés de manière alternée autour de l'axe d'empilage (A), de sorte que qu'ils sont positionnés pour former des couches d'une pile entrecroisée dans la cuve d'empilage (22). Cette technique d'empilage convient particulièrement à l'empilage de produits imprimés et présente, par rapport aux procédés d'empilage connus, l'avantage d'éviter de manière significative tout mouvement incontrôlé ou incontrôlable des produits.

Granted: 2010-09-28
Abstract: A method and a system for managing a TCAM table are disclosed. A new route is inserted into the TCAM table at an available location using an index. The new route is added into a Patricia tree organized by a mask length associated with the new route. Routes having common prefixes with the new route are searched for in Patricia trees organized by longer mask lengths and in Patricia trees organized by shorter mask lengths to locate a chain for the new route. The chain for the new route groups routes having common prefixes. The routes in the chain are sequenced in an order of longer prefix first first such that a route at a top of the chain has a longest prefix. A swap of routes in the chain is preformed to accommodate the new route and to maintain the longer prefix first order.

Les sources lumineuses dirigent le rayonnement sur les zones de détection selon une séquence prédéterminée, et de manière cyclique, et la sortie du détecteur est synchronisée avec les sources lumineuses par une unité de commande. La bioséparation en parallèle peut être réalisée simultanément dans tous les canaux en parallèle, la détection étant échelonnée et/ou multiplexée dans le temps en fonction des différentes sources lumineuses. Dans une forme de réalisation, les sources lumineuses peuvent être des diodes électroluminescentes peu coûteuses.

Title: Colloidal nanocrystals with high photoluminescence quantum yields and methods of preparing the same
Inventor: PENG XIAOGANG
IPC: H01L33/20
Filed: 2002-07-30
Granted: 2012-04-17
Abstract: The present invention provides new compositions containing colloidal nanocrystals with high photoluminescence quantum yields, new synthetic methods for the preparation of highly luminescent colloidal nanocrystals, as well as methods to control the photoluminescent properties of colloidal nanocrystals.  For example, this invention encompasses as-prepared nanocrystals that luminesce between about 550 nm and about 675 nm and exhibit a photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY) greater than or equal to about 40 %.  In some embodiments, PL QY between about 50 % and about 80 % are obtainable for nanocrystals that luminesce between about 600 nm and about 650 nm. The new synthetic methods disclosed herein allow photoemission brightness (quantum yield) to be correlated with certain adjustable nanocrystal growth parameters associated with a given synthetic scheme. The PL QY of as-prepared CdSe (and other) semiconductor nanocrystals increases monotonically with time in the early stages of the crystallization process, and then gradually decreases after attaining a maximum point. The time at which a maximum PL QY is attained is referred to as the PL bright point. The position of this bright point, the PL QY value at the bright point, the FWHM of the PL spectra, and several other parameters of the growth process of the CdSe nanocrystals are all strongly dependent on the initial Cd:Se ratio of the precursors in the solution, and certain other experimental parameters. This bright point is different from the point of minimum polydispersity of the nanocrystal sample, referred to as the focusing point of size distribution. CdSe nanocrystals synthesized by this alternative method represent a series of excellent emitters in the orange-red color window in terms of their PL QY, the FWHM of the PL spectra, and the stability of the emission.
