Abstract: Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to waveguide lasers (e.g., RF-excited waveguide lasers). Certain example embodiments of this invention provide an optical mounting scheme for use with a waveguide laser. In certain example embodiments, a carrier including an optic holder may be provided. An optic may be mounted to the carrier via a face-sealing epoxy. An optic interface may be formed at least in part by the epoxy. The optic interface may be a thin layer of a substantially uniform thickness located between the carrier and optic face. The carrier and/or the optic holder of the carrier may be beveled proximate to where the optic interface is formed and, optionally, proximate to where the epoxy is applied. In certain example embodiments, the epoxy may be applied to only the optic's face and/or to the optic holder's face. In certain example embodiments, the waveguide laser may further comprise a vacuum vessel, and the carrier may be attached to the laser such that the optic and/or the optic interface attached to the carrier fit inside of the vessel.

Abstract: According to an embodiment of the present invention, a deflection electrode assembly is provided for use in a continuous ink jet printer of the type which projects a stream of ink drops toward a substrate and controls placement of the ink drops on the substrate by selectively charging the individual ink drops and passing the charged ink drops through a deflection field created by the deflection electrode assembly. The deflection electrode assembly includes a high voltage electrode, a low voltage electrode, and an insulating housing which positions the high and low voltage electrodes in a predetermined spaced relationship along the ink drop stream. The insulating housing also has an internal resistor in electrical connection to the high voltage electrode and an external circuit. The insulating housing also contains an insulating member which supports the high voltage electrode as well as minimizes the possibility for arcing between the two electrodes.

Abstract: Disclosed are jet ink compositions suitable for printing on substrates such as plastics and oil contaminated metals messages having excellent adhesion, for example, scratch resistance. The jet ink composition comprises one or more organic solvents, a rosin resin, and a colorant, and optionally a co-binder resin, e.g., a vinyl resin. Preferably, the jet ink composition is free or substantially free of a cellulose nitrate resin and/or a slow evaporating solvent. The present invention further provides a method for printing scratch resistant messages on a low surface energy substrate comprising projecting a stream of droplets of the jet ink composition to the substrate, controlling the direction of the stream so that the droplets are caused to form the desired printed messages, and allowing the messages to dry.
