摘要:
The present invention relates to a device for continuous or semi-continuous casting of a metal material. The device comprises a first arrangement comprising a coil (7) having an extension around the casting mould (2) in an area, which is arranged to comprise molten metal material. The coil (7) is arranged to be fed with alternating current such that a varying magnetic field generated and is applied to the molten metal material in the casting mould (2). The device also comprises a second arrangement comprising at least two magnetic poles (8), which are provided at opposite sides of the casting mould (2). The poles (8) are arranged to supply a static or periodic low-frequency magnetic field to the molten metal material in the casting area. The poles (8) comprise at least a portion (11) which comprises a plurality of material layers which are electrically insulated from each other.

摘要:
A device for continuous or semi-continuous casting of metal comprising a mould having a number of mould elements (1, 2) which together form a mould adapted for receiving a liquid metal (6), a mould supporting structure (30, 31) surrounding the mould and mechanically supporting it, and an induction coil (20) arranged close to the mould for reducing the contact pressure between the melt and the mould. At least one of the mould elements is divided into at least a first (1a, 2a) and a second (1b, 2b) part arranged so that they are electrically insulated from each other, the first mould element part being arranged before the second mould element part relative to the casting direction and said induction coil is arranged close to the first mould element part (1a, 2a).

A fiber optic article can comprise a core, an inner region disposed about the core and a cladding disposed about the inner region. The index of refraction of the cladding can be less than that of the inner region, and the index of refraction of the inner region can be less than that of the core. The fiber can include a second cladding disposed about the cladding, where the second cladding has an index of refraction that is less than the index of refraction of the cladding. The inner region can have a non circular outer perimeter that includes at least one inwardly oriented section. The article can be elongate along a longitudinal axis and can include at least one longitudinally extending region, such as a stress inducing region, for providing birefringence and the inwardly oriented region can face the longitudinally extending region. The fiber optic article can include active material for providing light responsive to the article receiving pump light, such as, for example, one or more rare earths. The rare earths can include erbium and ytterbium.

摘要:
A fiber optic article, such as an optical fiber or an optical preform, can include a core comprising a concentration of erbium, a concentration of fluorine and a concentration of ytterbium for sensitizing the erbium by absorbing pump light and transferring energy to the erbium. The erbium can provide light having a second wavelength different than the wavelength of the pump light. The article can also include a concentration of phosphorus. The fiber optic article can include a cladding disposed about the core, where the cladding has an index of refraction that is less than the index of refraction of the core, and a second cladding disposed about the first cladding, where the second cladding includes an index of refraction than is less than the index of refraction of the cladding. The fiber optic article can be elongate along a longitudinal axis and can include a longitudinally extending region for providing birefringence.
摘要:
An optical fiber preform, and method for fabricating, having a first core, a second core spaced from the first core and first and second regions, the first region having an outer perimeter having a first substantially straight length and the second region having an outer perimeter having a second substantially straight length facing the first straight length. One of the regions can comprise the first core and the other comprises the second core. The preform can be drawn with rotation to provide a fiber wherein a first core of the fiber is multimode at a selected wavelength of operation and a second core of the fiber is spaced from and winds around the first core and has a selected longitudinal pitch. The second core of the fiber can couple to a higher order mode of the first core and increase the attenuation thereof relative to the fundamental mode of the first core.
