Abstract: An ink jet recording apparatus which performs
recovery process for recording means by a recovery
system having capping means being closely in contact
with or parting from recording means installed on a
head installation unit for recording by discharging ink
to a recording medium. For this recording apparatus,
the cap of the recovery system is made controllable so
that the cap can be at a first position where it is in
close contact with the recording head, and at a second
position where the recording sheet is made conveyable.
Then, when recording data is transferred, the cap and a
movable platen is allowed to shift from the first
position to the second position so as to make recording
possible. When the recording operation terminates, the
cap and the movable platen shifts from the second
position to the first position so as to enable it to
return to the capping status. With the structure thus
arranged, it becomes possible to reduce the dimension
of the apparatus main body in the carriage traveling
direction by the widthwise dimension of a recovery
system irrespective of the size of the recovery system
without inviting any increase of a load given to the
carriage motor.

Abstract: The composition of a particle occurring on the surface of a smooth substrate is
identified by impinging the surface with a light beam having a strong P-polarized
component at an oblique angle of incidence to the surface, and collecting light
scattered from the surface at forward, center, and back locations relative to the portion
of the surface impinged by the incident beam. The intensities of the light collected at
these locations are measured by detectors and converted into signals, and the
magnitudes of the signals are compared to correlations of particle material as a
function of the relative magnitudes of the forward-, center-, and back-scatter signals
so as to identify the material whose correlation most nearly matches the measured
detector signals. Preferably, a ratio of the back detector signal magnitude to forward
detector signal magnitude is correlated with particle material and back detector signal
magnitude. Alternatively or additionally, a ratio of back detector signal magnitude to
center detector signal magnitude is correlated with particle material and back detector
signal magnitude. Average particle diameter versus back detector signal magnitude is
correlated with particle material.

Abstract: A method of modifying the spectral distribution of an optical signal includes the
steps of splitting the signal among a plurality of optical paths, delaying the propagation
of the signal through one or more of the optical paths by a time duration which results
in the desired spectral distribution when the signals at the output ends of each optical
path are recombined, and then recombining those outputs. An apparatus for changing
the spectral profile of an optical signal includes an input waveguide and a plurality of
tapped delay lines. Each of the tapped delay lines has a delay element configurable to
impart a predetermined delay to the signal propagating down the delay line. Couplers
split an optical signal, propagating on the input waveguide, among the tapped delay
lines. The delays imparted to the signals on each line are chosen so as to effect the
desired change to the spectral profile.
