摘要:
An object of the present invention is to realize almost the same transmission characteristic in all wavelengths at a transmission rate of 10 Gb/s or more. An optical transmitter 10 outputs WDM signal light multiplexed with signal light of a plurality of wavelengths toward an optical transmission line 12. The optical transmission line 12 comprises an optical transmission fiber 14, an optical repeating amplifier 16 and a dispersion compensating fiber 18. The gain characteristic of the optical repeating amplifier 16 is set so that the gain becomes the maximum at the effective zero dispersion wavelength of the optical transmission line 12 and that lowers inversely proportional to the distance from the effective zero dispersion wavelength. The whole optical transmission line 12 is set so that the peak power deviation between the effective zero dispersion wavelength &lgr;0 and the wavelength &lgr;1 or &lgr;n on both end becomes approximately 4 dB.

As is described above, an optical wavelength division multiplexing and transmission apparatus according to the present invention has the configuration in which a plurality of slave racks coupling to a master rack can be additionally installed one after another with the master rack. Therefore, in cases where it is desired to expand a function of a transmitter and a function of a receiver due to the increase of a quality of information to be transmitted, the additional installation of the slave rack can be performed without exerting influence on a communication means installed in advance and currently used. Accordingly, it can be expected that the optical wavelength division multiplexing and transmission apparatus is adapted for the optical communication service which is more and more increased in the future.

A semiconductor device includes a delay amount measuring unit, multiple delay sections and a correction signal generating unit. The delay amount measuring unit for measures an actual delay amount corresponding to a specified delay amount by supplying a clock signal with a known period to multiple 1-ns-delay strings with a preassigned delay amount, and by detecting phase variations of the clock signal by the 1-ns-delay strings. The delay sections includes a delay string capable of freely adjusting a connection number of its delay elements. The correction signal generating unit generates a correction signal for enabling each of the delay sections to correct the connection number of the delay strings such that each delay section has a desired delay amount, in accordance with the actual delay amount corresponding to the specified delay amount and measured by the delay measuring unit.

A take-up reel has a diameter equal to or more than 85 times a thickness of a veneer sheet wound thereon and equal to or more than 300 mm so as to be of a curvature of the take-up reel to reduce cracking in parallel to fiber orientations that occurs in winding a veneer sheet after drying on a winding surface of the take-up reel. A veneer reeling apparatus comprises: a take-up reel disposed in a veneer sheet reeling position in a rotatable manner; a drive roller disposed on the lower surface of the take-up reel, transmitting a driving force with a variable speed; a veneer dryer disposed upstream from the veneer sheet reeling position; a conveyor provided between the terminal end of the veneer dryer and the drive roller in the veneer sheet reeling position; and a plurality of thread feeding mechanisms disposed at arbitrary spatial intervals along a length direction of the take-up reel for a veneer sheet, wherein a continuous dried veneer sheet or dried veneer sheets whose sizes are of a constant length or of a length at random are wound on the take-up reel to form a veneer roll with threads as guide by a frictional force of the drive roller. Further, pairs of two overlapping veneer sheets or sets of a pair of two overlapping veneer sheets and a single veneer sheet can be wound on the take-up reel in a composite form.

An improved process for producing a light-absorbing chalcopyrite film is disclosed, which comprises the steps of: applying at least one solution containing at least either of (a) an organic compound of a metal in Group 1B of the periodic table and (b) an organic compound of a metal in Group 3B of the periodic table on a substrate at least once to thereby form a thin film containing the organic compound (a) and the organic compound (b); heating the thin film in a reducing or inert gas atmosphere to convert the thin film into a thin metal film comprising the Group 1B metal and the Group 3B metal; and heating the thin metal film in an atmosphere containing either an element in Group 6B of the periodic table or a compound thereof to thereby convert the thin metal film into a thin chalcopyrite film. This process eliminates the problem concerning the control of the composition and thickness of a light-absorbing chalcopyrite film, and is suitable for the mass production of homogeneous large light-absorbing plates for use in solar cells.
