    摘要: A photonic crystal is a three-dimensional dielectric structure which is opaque to electro-magnetic radiation within a given wavelength irrespective of the direction of incidence. The photonic crystal may include, for instance, a matrix-type arrangement of free-standing dielectric micro-columns or cylinders having small diameters. The micro-columns or cylinders are placed on a substrate whose thermal expansion coefficient between 60° C. and 85° C. is at least 50% lower than the thermal expansion coefficients of quartz glass, enabling the thermal expansion of the substrate to be kept to a minimum even when high temperature variations occur. The distance between the micro-columns supported by the substrate or the microcylinders of the photonic crystal varies only to a small amount. The optical characteristics are essentially more stable than those of photonic crystals with a quartz glass substrate. Glass ceramics or, for example, Zerodur® may be used as a substrate.

    摘要: Optical waveguides made of quartz glass with reduced infrared absorption and reduced attenuation coefficients are made of glass material composed of atoms having mass numbers higher than that of the natural isotope distribution. The quartz glass or doped quartz glass is made of silicon atoms, of which most or all have the mass numbers 29 and/or 30, as well as of oxygen atoms, of which most or all are composed of isotopes with the mass numbers 17 and/or 18. Atoms of the 76Ge isotope are preferably used for doping with germanium atoms having higher mass numbers than in the natural isotope mixture. Glass with atoms of preferably 30Si and/or 18O are preferably used for optical waveguides based on quartz glass having attenuation coefficients below 0.15 dB/km. As indicated, such optical waveguides are also suitable for transmitting high-energy, pulsed or continuous laser light in a wavelength range from 2.0 to 3.0 &mgr;m. These optical waveguides are also suitable for transmitting holmium laser light at 2.1 &mgr;m and Er laser light with a wavelength of 2.79 and 2.94 &mgr;m.

    摘要: An optical connection between optical fibers and an optical window exhibits improved long-term stability and improved measuring accuracy due to substantial transmission constancy. The surface of the optical window is coated with a thin, absorption-free coating of very hard material, thereby substantially improving the scratch resistance. The thickness of the protective coating is sized so that interfering reflection losses caused by differences in refraction indices may be avoided. The hardness of the protective coating is greater than that of the material of the optical window and its optical thickness is small in relation to the operating wavelength. The coating may be applied using ion-based, ion-beam dispersion, or microplasma methods.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for automatically and dynamically tuning individual heater segments of a multi-zone furnace which allows simultaneous minimization of temperature gradients within the furnace and prevention of premature aging and failure of the segments by controlling the relative temperatures thereof and equalization of the contributions of the segments to the heating of the furnace. Furnace and heater temperatures are monitored and furnace temperatures are used to develop set point biases for automatic control of heater segment temperatures. Some segments are also controlled as a function of power applied to other segments. Temperatures sensed within the furnace are combined such as by averaging to effectively provide virtual sensors in locations where sensors cannot otherwise be practically provided.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to an economical approach for compensating for the dispersion of optical signals having different wavelengths. In accordance with the present invention, photonic crystals (K1-Kn) are positioned on a common optical waveguide (2). In this context, each photonic crystal (K1-Kn) is tuned to reflect or deflect the signals of one wavelength and to transmit the signals of other wavelengths, unattenuated. The specific arrangement of the photonic crystals (K1-Kn) on the waveguide (2) and the specific arrangement of the deflecting elements in the photonic crystal are defined, in the process, as a function of the dispersion to be compensated for between the individual wavelengths. The approach of the present invention makes it possible to assemble permanently set or controllable photonic dispersion compensators of a high quality, which are approximately 1000 times shorter than conventional diffraction gratings.
