摘要:
An apparatus for forming thin organic films includes a plurality of water tanks each containing water. Monomolecular films of different amphiphatic organic molecules are developed on the surface of the liquid in water tanks, respectively. A work is dipped into and drawn up from a desired water tank, by a driving device, in a direction substantially perpendicular to the liquid surface, so that the monomolecular film in the water tank is adhered on a work surface. The work is transported by a transporting device to a position above another water tank, through an area lying above the water tanks. Then, the work is dipped into and drawn up from the other water tank, by the driving device, in a direction substantially perpendicular to the monomolecular film, so that another monomolecular film is adhered on the monomolecular film already formed on the work surface.

A phase shift unit provides a prescribed phase difference (π/2, for example) between a pair of optical signals transmitted via a pair of arms constituting a data modulation unit. A low-frequency signal f0 is superimposed on one of the optical signals. A signal of which phase is shifted by π/2 from the low-frequency signal f0 is superimposed on the other optical signal. A pair of the optical signals is coupled, and a part of which is converted into an electrical signal by a photodiode. 2f0 component contained in the electrical signal is extracted. Bias voltage provided to the phase shift unit is controlled by feedback control so that the 2f0 component becomes the minimum.

An OADM in a wavelength division multiplexing transmission system includes a wavelength selection switch that selects a predetermined wavelength from a multiple optical signal obtained by multiplexing a phase modulated signal and an intensity modulated signal and outputs the selected wavelength signal to a predetermined output port. The wavelength selection switch has a different delay for each wavelength of the multiple optical signal. For example, the wavelength selection switch includes a mirror array. Optical paths from the surfaces of mirrors arranged on the mirror array to the diffraction grating are different in the case of adjacent mirrors.

Disclosed is a method of copper leaching without reducing the growth of iron-oxidizing bacterium and the iron-oxidizing capacity when leaching copper from a copper sulfide ore with the use of a sulfuric acid solution to which iron-oxidizing bacteria and silver have been added. Also disclosed is a method of leaching copper from a copper sulfide ore, including adding a naturally occurring nitrogen-containing organic component to a leaching solution upon copper leaching from a copper sulfide ore with the use of, as the leaching solution, a sulfuric acid solution to which iron-oxidizing bacteria and silver have been added is provided.

摘要:
A delay interferometer and a demodulator including the delay interferometer and a balanced photodetector are provided. A half mirror splits an optical signal into first and second split beams of light which travel on first and second optical paths, respectively. A first reflector being disposed on the first optical path reflects the first split beam of light toward the half mirror. The second reflector being disposed on the second optical path reflects the second split beam of light toward the half mirror. At least one phase compensator being disposed between the half mirror and at least one of the first and second reflectors includes a medium that exhibits thermooptic effect and has temperature dependency of refractive index. The half mirror couples the first and second split beams of light to generate at least first and second coupled beams of light.

The optical node connects N networks to each other (where N is an integer larger than one). Each of the N networks respectively includes a first transmission path and a second transmission path. The optical node includes a switching unit that connects the first transmission path of one network of the N networks to other (N−1) networks; a failure detector that detects failure in the first transmission path of the network; and a control unit that causes the switching unit to connect the second transmission path of the network to the other (N−1) networks when the failure is detected.
