Provided is a wavelength converter that makes it possible to improve the S/N ratio of output signal light. In the wavelength converter, optical pump light λ3 output from an optical pump source passes through a first reflector and travels through an optical fiber. Light having wavelengths that differ from the aforementioned wavelength is generated by a nonlinear optical phenomenon at the optical fiber. Of the light, generated light λ4 having a resonant wavelength of a resonator is optically amplified and oscillated. An input signal λ1 also passes through the first reflector and travels through the optical fiber. At the optical fiber, an output signal light λ2 having a different wavelength is generated by a nonlinear optical phenomenon between the generated light λ4 and the input signal light λ1. The output signal light λ2 passes through a second reflector and is output from a resonator.

The wavelength converter comprises (1) an optical multiplexer for multiplexing an amplitude-modulated first light and reference light, which is continuous light having a wavelength different from the wavelength of the first light, (2) an optical fiber for propagating the multiplexed light therethrough to generate a third light by a non-linear optical phenomenon, and (3) an optical filter having a pass wavelength range set such that a pulse time width of the third light is 20% or more narrower than a pulse time width of the first light after the third light has passed through the optical filter, or (3′) an optical filter having a pass wavelength range set such that a cross point of an eye pattern of the third light is lower than a cross point of an eye pattern of the first light after the third light has passed through the optical filter.

The present invention relates to a dispersion-compensating module having a structure which compensates for the dispersion of an optical transmission line in a wavelength band of 1.55 μm and adjusts loss fluctuations among wavelengths in the wavelength band of 1.55 μm into an appropriate range. The module comprises a structure adapted to be installed in an already installed optical fiber transmission line, and has a loss slope with a polarity opposite to that of the optical fiber transmission line in the wavelength band of 1.55 μm. An example of the module comprises a dispersion-compensating optical fiber as a dispersion-compensating device, and an optical fiber doped with a transition metal element as a loss-equalizing device. Consequently, the loss fluctuations among individual wavelengths in the whole transmission line including the dispersion-compensating module are adjusted by the loss-equalizing device in the dispersion-compensating module so as to fall within an appropriate range.

A wafer level package has a first wafer having a plurality of chips mounted or formed thereon in a plane, and a second wafer that is opposed to the first wafer. The first wafer and the second wafer are joined while a seal frame that seals a periphery of each chip is interposed therebetween. A gap is formed between the seal frames of the chips adjacent to each other. A partial connect part that partially connects the seal frames to each other is provided in the gap formed between the seal frames of the chips adjacent to each other.

There are provided a rare-earth permanent magnet and a manufacturing method thereof capable of achieving improvement of magnetic properties by optimizing magnetic field orientation. In the method, magnet material is milled into magnet powder. Next, the magnet powder and a binder are mixed to obtain a mixture. Next, the thus prepared mixture is formed into long-sheet-like shape so as to obtain a green sheet 13. Before the thus formed green sheet 13 dries, magnetic field is applied in an in-plane and transverse direction or an in-plane and machine direction of the green sheet for magnetic field orientation. Thereby, a permanent magnet 1 is obtained.

There are provided a rare-earth permanent magnet and a manufacturing method thereof capable of preventing deterioration of magnet properties. In the method, magnet material is milled into magnet powder. Next, a mixture is prepared by mixing the magnet powder and a binder made of a fatty acid methyl ester and/or one of or a blend of polymers and copolymers each composed of monomers satisfying a given condition. Next, the mixture is formed into a sheet-like shape to obtain a green sheet. After that, the green sheet is held for a predetermined length of time at binder decomposition temperature in a non-oxidizing atmosphere so as to remove the binder by causing depolymerization reaction or the like to the binder, which turns into monomer. The green sheet from which the binder has been removed is sintered by raising temperature up to sintering temperature. Thereby a permanent magnet 1 is obtained.

There are provided a rare-earth permanent magnet and a manufacturing method thereof capable of boosting productivity by improving thickness accuracy of a green sheet. In the method, magnet material is milled into magnet powder, and the magnet powder and a binder are mixed to obtain a mixture including 1 to 40 wt % of the binder therein. Next, by high precision coating of a substrate with the mixture, a green sheet is obtained at thickness precision within a margin of error of plus or minus 5% with reference to a designed value. Thereafter, the green sheet is held for predetermined time at binder decomposition temperature in non-oxidizing atmosphere, whereby depolymerization reaction or the like changes the binder into monomer and thus removes the binder. The green sheet with the binder removed therefrom undergoes pressure sintering such as SPS method so as to obtain a permanent magnet 1.

In an electrode portion structure in which an electrode is formed in an end portion of a through-wiring, disconnection is prevented in an electrode portion. A through-hole that vertically pierces a substrate is made in the substrate, and a through-electrode is provided in the through-hole. The through-electrode is projected in s curved-surface manner from an upper surface of the substrate. The upper surface of the substrate 12 is coated with an insulating film, and a contact hole is made in the insulating film while aligned with the through-electrode. An opening diameter of the contact hole is lower than a sectional diameter of the through-electrode, and surroundings of an upper surface of the through-electrode are coated with the contact hole. A thickness Ddiel of the insulating film is equal to or lower than a projection length Dp of the through-electrode from the upper surface of the substrate at an opening edge of the contact hole. Additionally, assuming that Dtsv is a projection length (maximum projection length) of an apex of the through-electrode from the upper surface of the substrate, the projection length Dtsv is adjusted so as to become 0≦Dtsv≦Ddiel+Dp (Dp>0).
摘要:
The present invention relates to a light source apparatus that has a base structure capable of generating SC light and further having a structure that enables the shaping of the spectral waveform of the SC light, power adjustment of the SC light, or adjustment of the frequency of repetition of the pulse train that contains the SC light. For example, a light source apparatus that enables shaping of spectral waveforms comprises a seed light source that emits seed light which is a pulse train or continuous light; an optical fiber that generates SC light from the seed light, and spectrum shaping means for completely or partially changing the spectral waveform of the SC light. The shaping of the spectral waveform changes the maximum power of the seed light by changing the optical coupling efficiency of the seed light source and optical fiber, for example, thereby suitably deforms the spectrum of the SC light.
