摘要:
A spiral shield for an implantable secondary coil confines the electrical field of the coil, and thus prevents capacitive coupling of the coil through surrounding dielectrics (such as human tissue.) Known implantable devices receive power inductively, through a secondary coil, from a primary coil in an external device. Efficient power reception requires that the coils be tuned to the same resonant frequency. Use of the spiral shield results in predictable electrical behavior of the secondary coil and permits the secondary coil to be accurately tuned to the same resonate frequency as the primary coil. To further improve performance, spacers made from SILBIONE®LSR 70 reside between turns of the coil to reduce turn to turn and turn to shield capacitances. Reducing the capacitances prevents excessive reduction of the self resonant frequency of the coil. The coil is imbedded in SILBIONE®LSR 70, allowing for a thin and flexible coil.

Apparatus for stabilizing the position of the exciting electric component of a radio frequency electromagnetic field within the excited plasma of a ring laser, using two adjacent quarterwave coils, and driving the coils from a radio frequency source to ensure that the adjacent open ends of the two coils have electric field components that produce a steep gradient of electric field within the gas plasma of the ring laser.
摘要:
A split gain multi-mode ring laser gyroscope is disclosed having a radio frequency excitation induction coil which also serves the magnetic mode suppression system, suppressing undesirable modes of the gain curve to achieve the split gain effect. The induction coil serves as an important common component of both the gain medium excitation and mode suppression systems. The induction coil is suitably configured to carry both AC and DC signals.
