Inventor: HANSE ERIC
IPC: B22D11/10
Filed: 1999-11-16
Abstract: The present invention concerns a stopper rod whose gas tightness and rigidity are improved. In particular, the stopper rod of the present. invention has means for maintaining the compression of the sealing gasket (11, 11') in contact with the annular sealing surface (10) of the body of refractory material when the stopper rod is brought to a high temperature. According to one embodiment of the invention, these means are furnished by a sleeve (12) comprised of a material with a high coefficient of thermal expansion, the dilatation of which maintains the sealing gasket under compression when the stopper rod is brought to a high temperature.

Title: Semiconductor devices fabricated with passivated high aluminium content III-V material
Inventor: KHARE REENA
IPC: H01S5/323
Filed: 2000-01-05
Abstract: For AlGaAs LEDs the confining layers 30, 34 adjoining the active layer 32 posses the highest AL composition. From failure analysis of non-passivated wet, high temperature aged AlGaAs LEDs, it was discovered that corrosion occurs the fastest at the exposed surfaces of the high AL content layers. By forming a high quality native oxide 46, 46A, 48 at the exposed surfaces of the high Al content confining layers 30, 34 which protect from the formation of the optically poor corrosion oxide, it is possible for LEDs to retain essentially the same light output of ter 2000 hours of wet high temperature testing. Further, it is possible to improve carrier confinement, carrier injection, wave guiding and other properties by increasing the AL content of different layers. The native oxide is formed after mesa etching and metallisation of the wafer but before separation into individual devices.

Title: A push fit connector with grab ring and grab ring release means
Inventor: DARWIN RICHARD PAUL
IPC: F16L37/091
Filed: 2000-03-10
Abstract: A push fit connector (400) for use as an attachment to connect two pipes (100,101) has two connecting portions (10,11) at opposite sides of an inwardly deformed ridge (2) in outer tubular metal body (302) having inwardly deformed lips (8,8') at each end around a respective entrance opening to the corresponding connecting portion (10,11). The connecting portions are similarly arranged and substantially symmetrically disposed with respect to the ridge. Connecting portion (11) has an annular abutment element (3'), an elastomeric sealing ring (308), an annular intermediate abutment (310), a grab ring (312) with inwardly directed teeth in a frusto-conical array, an outer bush (314) and a sleeve (316) axially slidable in the bush (314). When the sleeve (316) is pushed inwardly of the connecting portion (11) a wedge-shaped annular head or lip on the sleeve acts on the teeth of the grab ring (312) to displace them radially outwards so they can disengage from the pipe (101) thus releasing it so that it can be pulled out of the connector (400). Dotted line C demarcates an end of the envelope of the attachment (400). Teeth releasing movement by the sleeve (316) can only begin to occur once end face (342) on a free end of the sleeve is substantially flush with end C of the envelope or is actually wholly within the envelope. End face (342) faces outwardly from the body (302).

Title: Optical device for reducing polarisation dependence
Inventor: EVANS IVAN
IPC: G02B6/12
Filed: 2002-08-17
Abstract: A device such as A Dynamic Gain Flattening Filter (DGFF) 1 may be adapted to reduce polarisation dependence. It consists of an input/output waveguide 2 for receiving an optical input signal from an optical fibre and for outputting an optical output signal to the optical fibre. A bidirectional optical structure may consist of an arrayed waveguide (AWG) 3 for demultiplexing the optical input signal from the waveguide 2 and for supplying the resulting channel signals to intermediate waveguides 4, the optical structure having substantially the same optical properties for identical optical signals transmitted through the optical structure in opposite directions. The optical structure further incorporates a reflecting facet 5 for returning the channel signals back along the intermediate waveguides 4, and a polarisation converter 6 associated with the reflecting facet 5 for converting the received channel signals to differently polarised signals to be transmitted back through the optical structure prior to being multiplexed by the AWG 3 to produce the output signal. In this manner a filter is provided which compensates for polarisation dependent losses (PDL) and which can be fabricated on a single chip to reduce complexity, cost and size.
