    摘要: A surface relief reflection diffraction grating is used as a wavelength compensating element for a diffraction grating coupler. The changes in wavelength are compensated for by adjusting the parameters of the reflection diffraction grating so that the dispersion of the reflection diffraction grating is generally equal and opposite to the dispersion of the diffraction grating coupler. The technique has been shown to permit the range of wavelengths which can coupled with the diffraction grating coupler to be extended from 0.7 nm to 17 nm. The lateral shift has an important contribution and can be limiting factor in wavelength compensation.

    摘要: In the read/write head of an optical storage system, a bi-direction grating coupler is used to replace optical components normally found in the read/write head. The use of the bi-directional grating coupler reduces the bulk and weight of the read/write head. The two channels of the bi-directional grating coupler can be used to separate a radiation component that can used to provide a tracking control signal from a radiation component that can be used to provide a focus control signal. One of the channels is also used to provide the radiation component from which the data on the storage medium can be identified. The bi-directional coupler can be implemented by two grating couplers, each grating coupler having a thin film associated therewith and each grating coupler diverting a selected radiation portion into the associated thin film. The bi-directional grating coupler can be implemented using a single grating with tapered thin film surfaces, the taper separating the selected radiation components into selected portions of the thin film. The tapered thin film surface broadens the wavelength response of the associated grating. In either embodiment, a reflection diffraction grating can be inserted in the optical path to compensate for shifts in the radiation wavelength.

    摘要: An electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding material includes a matrix of a dielectric or partially conducting polymer, such as foamed polystyrene, with carbon nanotubes or other nanostructures dispersed therein in sufficient concentration to make the material electrically conducting. The composite is formed by dispersing the nanotube material in a solvent in which the dielectric or partially conducting polymer is soluble and mixing the resulting suspension with the dielectric or partially conducting polymer. A foaming agent can be added to produce a lightweight foamed material. An organometallic compound can be added to enhance the conductivity further by decomposition into a metal phase.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for making an optical device which is adapted to diffract an incident beam of radiation to form a plurality of discrete diffracted beams of different orders. The optical device comprises two diffraction gratings which are supported on a substrate and are separated from each other by a thin film. In order to obtain the advantages of a doubly-periodic structure, the thickness of the thin film between the two gratings is very accurately controlled to be on the order of the wavelength of the incident beam of radiation.

    摘要: A method for the replication of a textured surface of a master is disclosed, in which the textured surface of the master is comprised of micron-scale cones having nano- or micro-scale surface features. Alternatively, the master may be comprised of micron-scale structures, nano-scale structures, and micron scale structures having nano-scale surface features. Replication can be achieved through a molding or embossing technique. Using these technique, the textured surface of the master is faithfully replicated onto the surface of the replica. A number of representative materials and additional processing steps are also disclosed. The replicated texture exhibits many useful properties, including enhanced hydrophobicity and reduced light reflection properties, making the disclosed method a simple and attractive alternative to existing texturing techniques.

    摘要: The surface of a material is textured and by exposing the surface to pulses from an ultrafast laser. The laser treatment causes pillars to form on the treated surface. These pillars provide for greater light absorption. Texturing and crystallization can be carried out as a single step process. The crystallization of the material provides for higher electric conductivity and changes in optical and electronic properties of the material. The method may be performed in vacuum or a gaseous environment. The gaseous environment may aid in texturing and/or modifying physical and chemical properties of the surfaces. This method may be used on various material surfaces, such as semiconductors, metals and their alloys, ceramics, polymers, glasses, composites, as well as crystalline, nanocrystalline, polycrystalline, microcrystalline, and amorphous phases.
