摘要:
An arrangement for damping the resonance in a laser diode includes an additional layer (25) which together with the conventional laser diode form a structure (35) of a bipolar transistor. Therein, the additional layer serves as the collector, the cladding layer (12) next to it as the base, and the active region (11) and the other cladding layer (13) as the emitter. A capacitor (30) is connected across the base and the collector. It is chosen so that at any frequency above a certain selected frequency (f.sub.c) which is far below the resonance frequency (f.sub.res) the capacitor impedance is very low, effectively shorting the base to the collector.

An array of nonuniform semiconductor diode lasers with supermode control for achieving a single-lobed farfield pattern is described. This is accomplished by spatially segregating the fundamental supermode from the other supermodes, tailoring the spatial gain profile as as to favor the fundamental supermode, and sufficiently increasing the intechannel coupling so as to bring about single-lobed farfield operation. In a preferred embodiment, this is achieved in a shallowly proton implanted, tailored gain, chirped laser array in which the widths of the lasers are varied linearly across the array.

An integrated laser structure for paired stripe semiconductor lasers is provided with separate current control of each stripe laser. With optical coupling between the lasers, one of the lasers is operated below threshold and serves the longitudinal mode selection and tunability of the other laser, thereby to obtain a single longitudinal mode operation. Without coupling, the paired-laser structure operates as a source of two independent wavelengths.

The system employs the use of biometric authentication, a fraud control gateway and widget, and a point of sale sensor to restrict the use of credit cards or other financial tokens to authenticated actual owners of the card or token. The card or token holder will have biometric information entered into a database during an initiation or enrollment process, and subsequent uses of the card may be authenticated by comparing the biometric information of the attempted user to biometric information stored in the system. The biometric component is used for voice authentication. As part of a multi-factor security schema, the biometric authentication is combined with a series of point of sale and fraud control methods to ensure a comprehensive security umbrella for financial transactions. Both financial institution limits to transactions and consumer-preferred limits to transactions are employed.

A communications portal for interfacing with a carrier network, a contact center, and a user is disclosed. Telecommunications links are connected to the communications portal to receive inbound calls and place outbound calls. A gateway signaling proxy containing an application server and a reverse automation subsystem is connected to the telecommunications links to recognize and store user selections, detect answer supervision, and execute scripts as configured in the user interface.

Disclosed are compositions and methods for detecting oral and gastrointestinal cancers in a subject. Autoantigen p90 was shown to be overexpressed in oral cancer cells, and this protein, as well as its companion autoantigen p62 and antibodies directed to both proteins, can be used as markers for detecting oral digestive and other cancers in a subject at an early stage.

摘要:
A computing arrangement for determining a location of a wireless communications device includes a memory arrangement, a communication arrangement and a processor. The memory arrangement stores a location of each of at least three access points. The communication arrangement receives first data which includes at least one of first signal strength data and second signal strength data. The first signal strength data is indicative of a strength of a first signal transmitted by the device and received by the at least three access points. The second signal strength data is indicative of a strength of a second signal transmitted by the at least three access points and received by the device. The processor determines a location area of the device as a function of the first data and the location of each of the at least three access points, the location area being within a predetermined reception range of the at least three access points. The processor determines the location of the device within the location area as a function of second data. The second data is indicative of a travel time of a third signal from the device to each of the at least three access points.
