    摘要: An optical multiplexing and demultiplexing device includes: a fiber mounting means for securing a plurality of optical fibers each terminating in a fiber end, at least one of the fiber ends radiating a corresponding input beam having a polarization state defined by a polarization plane that may vary as a function of time, and at least one of the fiber ends for receiving an output beam; collimating and focusing means having a focal length, and providing collimation of the input beams, and focusing of the output beams; diffraction means including at least one diffractive element providing for dispersion of optical beams passing therethrough, each diffractive element having an associated diffraction efficiency that varies as a function of the polarization state of light beams passing therethrough; and a polarization rotating means for rotating the plane of polarization of a beam passing therethrough by a specified number of degrees. The device provides for a particular input beam having a first polarization state to be diffracted by the diffractive elements in accordance with a first diffraction efficiency based on the first polarization state. The beam is then passed through the polarization rotating means at least once and thereby rotated into a second polarization state. The rotated beam is then diffracted by at least one of the diffractive elements in accordance with a second diffraction efficiency based on the second polarization state, whereby the device provides a spectral resolution that is substantially insensitive to variations in the polarization state of the input beam.

The processing unit uses the calibration wavelengths as standards to calibrate positional relationships between the spatially diffracted beams and the associated pixel detector elements.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for non-invasively measuring animal/human blood glucose and other metabolites including an excitation laser source, a negative pressure based sampling port which interfaces to a human or other animal tissue sample in vivo, a Raman spectrometer, and data analysis and display devices. The device can be made in a compact size and may be portable, and it can be used in homes, offices or clinics. A negative atmospheric sampling port is made of a vacuum chamber that is connected with an electrically or manually driven vacuum pump which creates a negative air pressure inside the vacuum chamber. Under the negative air pressure, a substantial amount of blood is "sucked" into a small area of the human finger so that measurement of an enhanced Raman signal can be made.

    摘要: An optical multiplexing and demultiplexing device including a fiber mounting assembly for aligning optical fibers, a set of collimating and focusing optics, a transmission grating element, and a mirror element. The fiber mounting assembly alignment element aligns a series substantially close-spaced optical fibers with their ends flush and assembled in a substantially straight line. The optical fibers are either multi-mode or single mode communication fibers capable of transmitting optical wavelengths with substantially high transmittance. The set of collimating and focusing optics, preferably a lens (or mirror) system that contains two (2) or more elements, may be made from optical glasses with uniform refractive indices, optical glasses with gradient indices, plastic optical elements, or diffractive lenses. The transmission grating element can be made from holographic techniques utilizing photosensitive media, where the media having sufficient thickness to provide high diffractive efficiency and wide operation waveband. The photosensitive media providing high spatial resolution in order to generate high groove density—thus high spectral resolution for DWDM applications. The mirror element, having a high reflectance coating for the wavelengths of interest, is arranged at such an angle that the optical radiation will be reflected back to the grating. It will then be diffracted again by the grating then focused to the optical fibers.

    摘要: An optical multiplexing and demultiplexing device includes: a plurality of optical fibers each terminating in a fiber end for radiating and receiving corresponding light beams; a fiber mounting assembly configured to support the optical fibers so that the fiber ends terminate in substantially the same plane, the mounting assembly also being configured to position the fibers in a regular array of N rows and M columns; reflecting means for reflecting beams radiating from the fiber ends; lens means for collimating and focusing beams propagating between the fiber ends and the reflecting means, the lens means having a focal length associated therewith; and diffraction means for diffracting beams propagating between the lens means and the reflecting means. The reflecting means includes a plurality of N reflective elements, each of the N reflective elements being associated with a corresponding one of the N rows. The array is substantially defined by a row axis that is substantially parallel to each of the rows and a column axis that is substantially parallel to each of the columns. Each of the reflective surfaces forms a corresponding first angle of rotation about a first line parallel to the row axis, and a corresponding second angle of rotation about a second line parallel to the column axis. The first angle of rotation of a corresponding one of the reflective surfaces is proportional to a distance measured between the center fiber and the row associated with corresponding reflective surface.

    摘要: Systems and methods establish a virtual points clearinghouse. The clearinghouse redeems heterogeneous digital micro-payments-such as bonus points received from various points issuers-across diverse service providers. Points meant for exclusive redemption at one service provider may be directly redeemed for non-corresponding goods of a different service provider. In one implementation, the clearinghouse includes contracts between points issuers, service providers, and a clearinghouse, including intervening conversion rates. A user interface enables a user to manage multiple point balances from a computing device, cell phone, or other mobile device. The user interface enables the user to find diverse goods and to directly obtain the goods by redeeming diverse heterogeneous points. The clearinghouse includes an invoicing engine to enable money flow between users, points issuers, service providers, and the clearinghouse.
