摘要:
A photonic package includes a housing having a semiconductor light source disposed within the housing. The semiconductor light source has a first output and a second output. A reflective surface is disposed inside the housing to reflect the second output from the semiconductor light source. A photodetector is also disposed within the housing and is adapted to indirectly receive the second output of the semiconductor light source reflected off the reflective surface. As a result, interior surface of a housing of an optical transponder may be utilized to provide reflected light to a photodetector to monitor the semiconductor light source.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for measuring the width of pulses in the gigahertz range comprises the steps of splitting an input pulse and delaying one of the pulses prior to their recombination in a directional coupler. The recombined pulse is then measured in a power meter. By varying the delay, maximum and minimum readings from the power meter may be found. The pulse width may then be found as a function of the actual delay, which may be controlled by the user by varying the distance through a waveguide that the delayed pulse must travel.
摘要:
An optical waveguide photocathode for converting optical signals to electrical signals has an optical waveguide, a semiconductor covering the end of the optical waveguide, a first transparent electrode disposed between the end of the waveguide and the semiconductor, and a second electrode disposed adjacent to and spaced from the semiconductor. An electric potential is applied between the first electrode and the second electrode. The waveguide, first conductor, and semiconductor are relatively pointed at the end to produce high electric field strength at the semiconductor thereby enabling semiconductors with high work functions to be used. The relatively small area of the semiconductor illuminated by the waveguide reduces the dark current, making the device more sensitive to low level signals. The device may be used in a streak tube or a photomultiplier.
摘要:
A signal acquisition probe stores compressed or compressed and filtered time domain data samples representing at least one of an impulse response or step response characterizing the signal acquisition probe. The compressed or compressed and filtered time domain data samples of the impulse response or the step response are provided to a signal measurement instrument for compensating the signal measurement instrument for the impulse or step response of the signal measurement instrument.
摘要:
The resistive probing tip system has one or more carriers and one or more electrical contact assemblies. Each carrier has opposing surfaces with a plurality of resistors engaging the carrier. Each of the plurality of resistors has opposing electrical contacts that are exposed at respective opposing surfaces of the carrier. Each electrical contact assembly has opposing surfaces with electrical contacts exposed at the opposing surfaces with each electrical contact exposed on one surface coupled to a corresponding electrical contact on the other opposing surface. The carrier(s) and the electrical contact assembly(s) selectively mate to and mate from one another with the electrical contacts exposed at the opposing surfaces the carrier(s) and the electrical contact assembly(s) contacting one another. The carrier(s) and/or the electrical contact assembly(s) may be selectively secured to either of a circuit board or a probe head.
