Abstract: A shuttle kiln (100) according to certain aspects includes at least one flue channel (124) and multiple flue risers (122) in fluid communication with the flue channel (124), and at least one shuttle (104) defining multiple exhaust shafts (140) arranged above the multiple flue risers (122), wherein an aggregate volume of a first exhaust shaft/riser pair (140-1, 122-1) differs from an aggregate volume of a second exhaust shaft/riser pair (140-2, 122-2). Such configuration at least partially compensates for different backpressures that would otherwise be experienced by flue gas exiting a shuttle kiln cavity (138) through different exhaust shafts (140), thereby improving uniformity of flue gas flow and reducing temperature variability within a kiln cavity (138).

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an optical waveguide interconnect may comprise providing a substrate, irradiating portions of the substrate's interior volume by directing a processing laser beam into the substrate surface, thus defining one or more surfaces that function as optic components, forming an embedded waveguide in the interior volume by directing the processing laser beam into the substrate surface, and etching away the weakened portions of the substrate's interior volume overlying the defined surfaces using an etchant. The optic components and the waveguide may be aligned to be in optical communication with each other such that an input beam of light may strike the defined surface of a first optic component, traverse the waveguide, and strike the defined surface of a second optic component.

Abstract: Embodiments of the current disclosure include small diameter single-mode optical fibers having gratings and methods of forming thereof. In some embodiments, methods of forming a small diameter single-mode optical fibers having gratings include providing an optical fiber having a core and cladding with a combined outer diameter of 100 μm to 125 μm and a coating having a thickness of less than or equal to 20 μm, wherein the coating comprises one of: (i) a high-modulus coating layer surrounding the cladding region; or (ii) a low-modulus coating layer surrounding the cladding region and a high-modulus coating layer surrounding the low-modulus coating layer; and exposing the core, through the coating, to a pattern of ultraviolet radiation to form an optical grating within the core.

Abstract: A shuttle kiln according to certain aspects includes at least one flue channel and multiple flue risers in fluid communication with the flue channel, and at least one shuttle defining multiple exhaust shafts arranged above the multiple flue risers, wherein at least one radiation blockers is arranged above outlet ports of the at least one shuttle. Such a configuration blocks line-of-sight radiant heat transfer between (i) heated surfaces above the shuttle within the kiln housing and (ii) outlet ports of the exhaust shafts, thereby enhancing radiant heat retention and reducing temperature variability within a kiln cavity of the shuttle kiln.
