    摘要: A source of linearly polarized light having a wavelength selected from the range of about 500 to 1100 nanometers provides light into one end of an optical fiber. A nonlinear crystal of the type that mixes the frequency of light passing therethrough is positioned adjacent the other end of the fiber. The fiber transmits light from the source to the crystal which increases its frequency up to 100%, dependent upon crystal selection, thereby providing light in the 250-550 nanometer wavelength range. Adjusting the radial orientation of the crystal with respect to the fiber optimizes conversion of light to the 250-550 nanometer range.

    摘要: The present invention relates to methods of seismic exploration utilizing vibrationally generated, elliptically polarized shear waves in an earth medium for subsequent detection of one or more dimensions of orthogonal particle motion. The invention relies upon a shear wave source of a type which couples a continually rotating longitudinal force into an earth medium thereby to propagate an elliptically polarized shear wave for refraction, reflection or subsurface detection, various forms of exploration being well within the capabilities.

    摘要: A sensor system comprises a fibe optic cable, or a fiber optic cable covered with a cladding, coated with a membrane that is sensitive to a particular substance to be detected. Contact with the material to be detected causes the membrane's index of refraction (normally less than that of the fiber core) to increase, decreasing the intensity of the light transmitted by the core. The fiber-optic sensor can be used to monitor one or more storage tanks for leakage by placing the fiber cable beneath the surface surrounding the tank(s).

    摘要: Method and apparatus for detecting the presence of hydrocarbons and other substance that fluoresces or absorbs light within a body of water which utilizes a controlled submersible vehicle scanning at or near the water bottom. The method utilizes a selected frequency light source as carried by the submersible to scan the water bottom, and the returned light energy, either at the wavelength of oil fluorescing in water or the source frequency backscatter, is detected and processed for the water bottom as well as a water region that is a selected distance above the water floor. Alternative forms of apparatus are disclosed for carrying out the functions of both oil fluorescence detection, and for obtaining differential absorption readings as to light source backscatter energy that is created by the ambient water and other factors in the water environmentsuch as marine life, turbidity, etc.

    摘要: A device for source compensating a fiber optic coupler output automatically compensates for changes in light intensity at the output end of the fiber caused by changes in light intensity from the source, beam walking at the input of the fiber and mode changes in the fiber. Laser light enters a frequency doubler and exits as a doubled frequency output which is focused onto the input face of a fiber optic cable by a lens. The lens is selected so that the spot size of the focused light on the face of the fiber is smaller than the diameter of the fiber and that the entry angle of the light cone is within the acceptance angle of the fiber. The fiber is tightly wound into a mode scrambler to provide a uniform intensity distribution of the light exiting the fiber. The light leaving the fiber is collimated and directed to additional optical elements. The collimated beam is directed to a beam splitter which reflects 8% of the incident beam to a calibrated photodiode that is terminated with a transimpedance amplifier. The light that transmits through the beam splitter can be focused onto the sample. To compensate for light fluctuations, the signal from the transimpedance amplifier is divided into the signal from the sample.

    摘要: The invention provides a vertical velocity signal and an integration signal, respectively, of two detected ambient conditions. The signals are summed, in a selectable ratio, and compared with a predetermined altitude set point. When there is a difference between the summed outputs and the altitude set point, an altitude control signal is provided to control a vertical propulsion system of an object whose altitude is to be maintained above a terrain.
