摘要: Linear photo-oriented polymer (LPP) layers are situated to align liquid crystals in a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) layer situated at or on the LPP layers. The LCP layer can include a guest such as a fluorophore that aligns with the liquid crystal so as to emit polarized fluorescence in response to an excitation beam. Layer LPP/LCP structures can be provided as light emitters, patterned polarizers, patterned retarders and other devices based on selection of one or more guest materials included in the LCP and alignable with the liquid crystal.

摘要: Methods and apparatus for providing a time slot switch which performs switching in the optical domain without the need for O-E-O conversion is described. The time slot switching device of the present invention may be part of a large switching device capable of performing switching and other function on WDM, TDM and WDM signals which are time division multiplexed. An optical time slot switch implemented using a time slot demultiplexer, optical cross-connect, variable delay lines and time slot multiplexer are described. Frequency conversion may be performed on a per time slot basis in cases where time slot signals are switched between lines using different wavelengths. Wave division demultiplexers and multiplexers can be added to the basic time slot switch to provide support for WDM switching and switching of TDM signals which are transmitted using wave division multiplexing.

摘要: An ion trap device comprises a wafer that supports at least one plate forming an ion trapping region therebetween. The plate has an electrically insulating surface and a multiplicity of electrodes disposed on the insulating surface. The electrodes form at least one ion trap in the trapping region when suitable voltages are applied to the electrodes via conductors coupled to the wafer. The device has a multiplicity of ports for introducing ions into the trapping region and for extracting ions from that region. In embodiments that include a multiplicity of such plates, a first one of the plates is oriented at a non-zero angle to the major surface of the wafer and is rotateably mounted on that surface. In one embodiment, at least two of the plates form an elongated micro-channel having an axis of ion propagation, and the electrodes on at least one of the two plates are segmented along the direction of the axis, thereby forming a multiplicity of ion traps along the axis. A controller applies suitable voltage (e.g., sequentially) to the segmented electrodes, thereby shifting ions from one trap to another. Preferably, the electrodes on the two plates are segmented. Applications to mass spectrometers and shift registers are described.
