A backlight assembly includes at least one U-shaped lamp, a first connecting member, and a second connecting member. The U-shaped lamp includes a U-shaped lamp tube, a first external electrode covering a first end portion of the U-shaped lamp tube, and a second external electrode covering a second end portion of the U-shaped lamp tube. The U-shaped lamp tube generates light when a first driving voltage is applied to the first external electrode and a second driving voltage is applied to the second external electrode. The first connecting member is electrically connected to the first external electrode for applying the first driving voltage to the first external electrode. The second connecting member is electrically connected to the second external electrode for applying the second driving voltage to the second external electrode. Therefore, interference between a wire for applying power to the U-shaped lamp and the U-shaped lamp is reduced.

A filter device for a vacuum cleaner comprises: a casing having a collecting space therein, a suction opening through which air including dust is sucked, formed eccentrically at one side so that sucked air can be rotated and a discharge opening through which purified air is discharged; a filter installed at an internal space of the casing, for filtering dust from air sucked through the suction opening; a filter cleaning unit disposed at an outer circumferential surface of the filter, for cleaning the filter by being rotated by a rotation force of air sucked through the suction opening; and a rotation restraining means for restraining rotation of the filter cleaning unit when the filter cleaning unit reaches a top dead point. Accordingly, fine dust attached to the filter in cleaning is removed so that a channel of the filter can be prevented from being closed.

An optical amplifier including a pumping optical source, a plurality of erbium doped optical fibers for amplifying optical signals of a plurality of wavelengths using pumping light generated by the pumping optical source, and a plurality of gratings alternately connected to the optical fibers, for reflecting an optical signal of a specific wavelength among different wavelength optical signals amplified by the optical fibers, wherein when optical signals for channels have different powers, the optical signal power for each individual channel is equalized by amplifying and reflecting the optical signals at different positions with different amplification gains. Accordingly, in a system having a great loss such as long-distance transmission, optical signals of different wavelengths are reflected at different positions, and amplified by a gain medium, thus making power equalization possible.

A complicated alignment process of performing an alignment with respect to an alignment axis having six degrees of freedom with submicron precision is not necessary. Also, it is possible to save time and money when attaching the optical fibers to the optical waveguide device chip.

A high power pumping apparatus for optical fiber amplification includes: a pumping portion for generating pumping light of a predetermined wavelength band, the wavelength of which is determined by the wavelength of the pumping light fed back from a subsegment portion; a wavelength division multiplexer for multiplexing the pumping light generated by the pumping portion, for dividing the signal light incident from a subsegment portion according to wavelengths, and for outputting the signal light to the pumping portion; and a broad-band reflecting portion for reflecting some of the output light multiplexed by the wavelength division multiplexer, for outputting the reflected light to the wavelength division multiplexer, and for outputting the remaining light as pumping light for light amplification. In the high power pumping apparatus according to the present invention, the same pumping diodes can be used without a wavelength selecting diode. The high power pumping is useful for optical fiber amplification for a cable TV and for remote pumping since the pumping is performed therein in a wide spectrum range.

A modal evolution coupler having a low-loss or non-loss effect when a transmitted light passes through an optical fiber and is output via an expanding element, includes: a first optical fiber which gradually, thermally expands a core to evolute the mode of a transmitted light, a second optical fiber which gradually, thermally expands a core to evolute the mode of a transmitted light, an expanding element which is placed between the first and second optical fibers, and is formed of an ultraviolet curing resin, and has ends whose section areas are equal to the respective ends of the first and second expanded optical fibers when an ultraviolet ray is incident thereon and cured, and includes expanded portions which are each expanded over a predetermined expansion distance starting from a connecting portion to the first or second optical fiber and a middle portion keeping its size constant for a predetermined length between the expanded portions of the first and second optical fibers, and does not move in the expansion distance, a channel transmission path which has two ends to which the first and second optical fibers are respectively connected and allows the transmitted light to be output after the expanding element is filled between the optical fibers placed on the ends thereof, and a coverlet positioned on the channel transmission path to enable a filling of the channel transmission path with an ultraviolet curing resin while aligning the first and second optical fibers and to prevent the resin from flowing out of the channel transmission path. Accordingly, the expansion distance of a core is long, so that an expanding element formed by ultraviolet ray irradiation is prevented from moving. Also, a loss of the transmitted light due to an influence of a resin existing between the section of an optical fiber and the wall of the channel transmission path is remarkably reduced. Furthermore, the use of a U- or V-shaped groove makes it possible for the optical fibers to be self-aligned and an emission loss is reduced.
