Abstract: A glass substrate (1) has an anti-reflection multilayer coating (6) including an alkali diffusion barrier layer for separating the substrate from a layer (4) which may be degraded by contact with alkali metal ions. A transparent (especially glass) substrate (1) has an anti-reflection coating (6) comprising a stack of alternating high and low refractive index thin dielectric layers, the novelty being that one or more layers, which form part of the anti-reflection coating (6) and which act as an alkali metal diffusion barrier, are provided between the substrate (1) and a layer (4) which may be degraded by contact with sodium ions in order to prevent modification of the optical properties of the anti-reflection coating (6) when the substrate is subjected to a hardening, bending or annealing heat treatment. Independent claims are also included for (i) single, laminated or insulating multiple glazing which incorporates the above substrate; and (ii) a process for manufacturing of the above substrate, in which the or each initial layer is deposited by CVD, especially directly on a float glass ribbon, and the subsequent layers are deposited by cathodic sputter deposition on the cut glass.

Title: A method of aligning images to be scanned and a scanning apparatus for such alignment
Inventor: DYBDAL NIELS
IPC: G03F9/00
Filed: 1996-05-02
Granted: 1999-12-29
Abstract: A method of scanning a plurality of images that arranges a portion of an image medium, in a position with a reference mark roughly aligned. The portion of the image medium is scanned to determine the location of the reference mark. The entire image is then scanned immediately after scanning only the portion with the reference mark. A second image is positioned with a reference mark roughly aligned on a scanner. The portion of the second image that has the second reference mark is scanned to determine the location of the second reference mark. The second image medium is repositioned so that the reference mark is placed accurately in the same position of the scanner which was occupied by the first reference mark. The entire second image is then scanned immediately after repositioning the second image medium. The images, and corresponding reference marks, may be recorded in different image media, or in the same medium, such as a single sheet of film. A device according to the invention determines the position of the first and second reference marks, and repositions the second image medium such that the second reference mark coincides with the location which was occupied by a first reference mark.

Abstract: An integrated optical biopsy forceps device and a method for tissue identification by optical analysis and biopsy sampling at a site within the body. The device includes an elongated catheter body for introduction into the body and navigation to an area of interest. An optical fiber extends through the device, from the proximal end, where it may be connected to electro-optical spectral analysis equipment, to a distal tip for illuminating and receiving light energy from tissue at the location of the tip. The distal end of the device has a pair of cutting jaws pivotally mounted at the distal end of the catheter body and controlled by control wires extending through the catheter body to a control handle at the proximal end, or by the optical fiber. The device may be spectroscopically guided to a site of interest within the body. The fiber tip is positioned coaxially with the jaws at the zone of contact and cutting of the jaws, and is retracted as the jaws close, so that the biopsy sample is taken exactly at the spot being viewed by the optical fiber.
