Abstract: A method of creating an image inside a transparent material with the aid of a pulsed laser beam involves as follows: use of a diffraction limited Q-switched laser, in particular, a solid-state single-mode TEM(subscript petit-00) laser; sharp focusing of the laser beam to provide an adjustable microdestruction in the material being treated; and mutual displacement of the laser beam and the material being treated after each laser shot to a next point of the image being reproduced. The microdestruction influenced upon the material at a pre-set point is adjustable in size by varying the actual aperture of the focusing lens and laser radiation power simultaneously. A device for carrying out said method comprises a laser 1, a defocusing lens 2 having a variable focal length, a focusing lens 4 capable of performing controlled motion along the laser beam 3 with the aid of an actuator 5, a drive 7 moving a specimen 6 made of a transparent material in a plane perpendicular to the laser beam 3, and a computer 8 guiding the process of specimen 6 treatment.

Abstract: Data to be communicated over a plurality of channels are divided into blocks (A1,B1,C1,D1,A2,B2,...), and each successive block is transmitted along a different channel (A,B,C,D) on a cyclic basis. A 5-to-6 bit coding scheme is used with some data values having one possible encoding, with three binary ones, and the remainder having two possible encodings, one with two binary ones and the other with four binary ones. To maintain d.c. balance on each channel, two-ones and four-ones encodings are used alternately for successive occurrences on a channel of any data value having dual encodings. To assist detection of single-bit errors affecting the encoded data, a delimiter having one of two possible values is sent after the final block on each channel; this delimiter value is chosen in accordance with which encoding would have been selected if another dual-encoding data value had occurred on that channel.

Abstract: Low thermal conductivity insulation for refrigerators and the like is produced by blowing a resinous foam in an inert (e.g., nitrogen) atmosphere with a mixture of carbon dioxide and a low thermal conductivity inert gas such as krypton or xenon. The foam is then sealed in a gas-impervious enclosure and carbon dioxide is removed therefrom, typically by inclusion in said enclosure of a solid material reacted therewith such as an alkaline reagent. The final partial pressure of the low thermal conductivity gas in the enclosure is in the range of about 20-200 torr, and the total pressure is up to 110% of said partial pressure.

Abstract: A microprocessor fault logging arrangement includes means for detecting hardware and software faults 3, 4, 8, which produce an interrupt signal which is applied to the non-maskable interrupt input NMI of microprocessor 1 and, via delay 5, to the RESET input of microprocessor 1. The NMI input causes microprocessor 1 to store the state of selected system parameters in a log of fault records stored in non-volatile memory 2, the selected parameters being stored for fault analysis each time an NMI input signal is generated. The delay 5 allows sufficient time for the selected parameters to be stored in the memory 2 before the microprocessor is reset.

Abstract: In order to transmit information data from a station to another station through a transmission channel, only the information data (a 31  to a 00 , b 31  to b 00 , etc) are transmitted when the channel has a good channel quality. When the channel quality is bad, error correction code words are composed for transmission by adding redundancy bits (A 15  to A 00 , B 15  to B 00 , etc) to the information data. When the channel quality is bad even with transmission of the code words, error correction code blocks are composed by interleaving information bits (a's, b's, etc) and the redundancy bits in a selected number of code words with the selected number increased from two depending on the channel quality. Alternatively, such data, words, or blocks are transmitted with a transmission rate adjusted.

Title: Glucose fluorescence monitor and method
Inventor: STAVRIDI M
IPC: G01N33/66
Filed: 1994-04-01
Abstract: A glucose monitor, and related method, determines the concentration of glucose in a sample by monitoring fluorescent light produced directly by any glucose present in the sample. The glucose monitor illuminates the sample with ultraviolet excitation light that induces any glucose present in the sample to fluoresce, with the fluorescent light being monitored and processed to determine the concentration of glucose in the sample. A sensor monitors the return light, which includes fluorescent light produced by any glucose in the sample, and generates first and second electrical signals indicative of the intensity of light in two wavelength bands. One wavelength band includes a characteristic spectral peak of glucose fluorescence, and the other wavelength band is a reference band having known spectral characteristics. A processor then processes the first and second electrical signals to determine the concentration of glucose in the sample. A fiber-optic waveguide is used to guide the excitation light from the laser light source to the sample and the return light from the sample to the sensor. The fiber-optic waveguide is housed in a catheter or probe that is adapted to monitor the concentration of glucose percutaneously in the oral cavity tissues of a person's mouth such as the gums.

Abstract: In a PLL circuit used in a display monitor, it is made
possible to design a PLL circuit using a VCO of excellent frequency
stability. In this PLL circuit, low jitter of display monitor is
realized without having to consider variations of oscillation
frequency of VCO practically. It solves the problems of effects of
variations of oscillation frequency on the cost and productivity.
This PLL circuit preliminarily detects the range of frequency dividing
range of the frequency dividing ratio of the dividing circuit
capable of locking the PLL circuit with respect to the input signal
with known frequency by frequency detecting means. The detected
frequency data is stored in the memory. On the basis of the
frequency data, the frequency dividing ratio of the dividing circuit
is set. By this setting, even if different input signals are
entered, the VCO operates at a frequency near the center of the
variable range of the oscillation frequency.
