20090034576 | LINEWIDTH-NARROWED EXCIMER LASER CAVITY - A double-grating excimer laser cavity is disclosed which includes a first multilayer dielectric diffraction grating comprised of a dielectric stack having a plurality of continuous layers with alternating high and low refractive indices, and a nonmetallic diffraction grating disposed on the top layer of the plurality of layers. The nonmetallic diffraction grating is a single pair of layers made of a low refractive index dielectric material and a high refractive index dielectric material. Grooves extend through the pair of layers. The diffraction grating has a diffraction efficiency of greater than 85% at the laser emission wavelength. The laser produces a laser output beam with a narrow spectral linewidth which is suitable, in particular, for lithography applications. | 02-05-2009 |
20090059375 | Grating Device with Adjusting Layer - A reflection grating device with a continuous non-reflecting dielectric adjusting layer disposed between a grating structure and one or more continuous reflecting layers is disclosed that operates in an order of interest, such as the 1 | 03-05-2009 |
20100027579 | LINEWIDTH-NARROWED EXCIMER LASER CAVITY - An excimer laser cavity is disclosed which includes at least one grating-prism (grism) and a wavelength-selective diffraction grating arranged in sequence. The grism grating surface faces the gain medium and produces an expanded beam which is diffracted on the same side of the prism grating surface normal as the incident beam. The expanded diffracted beam is transmitted through a second surface of the grism either to another grating surface of an additional grism or to a wavelength-selective diffraction grating operating in Littrow configuration. The laser produces a laser output beam with a narrow spectral linewidth which is suitable, in particular, for lithography applications. | 02-04-2010 |
20100091369 | DOUBLE-LAYER GRATING - A double-layer grating structure for efficient retroreflection of incident radiation and efficient transmission of the undiffracted incident radiation is disclosed. The grating is constructed of two spaced-apart layers of periodically arranged metal stripes, wherein the stripes in one layer overlap with gaps between the stripes in the second layer. The layers are encapsulated with a dielectric material. A method for producing such grating is also described. | 04-15-2010 |

20090290217 | Three-Dimensional Diffractive Structure, Method For Making, and Applications Thereof - Three-dimensional grating device includes two (crossed) diffraction gratings, exhibits diffraction efficiency substantially independent of the incident polarization inside an optical communication spectral window from 1.5-1.6 μm. The gratings are characterized by different periods in two directions, chosen to support only one dispersive diffraction order in addition to the zero- (specular) order. Gratings may be orthogonal. Exemplary grating profiles include but are not limited to sinusoidal and truncated pyramidal (trapezoidal) profiles. A method for diffracting polarization independent light with 90% or higher efficiency. Applications include various wavelength control devices particularly useful in telecommunications. | 11-26-2009 |

20080236332 | Reciprocating to rotary mechanical conversion device - A mechanical conversion system for receiving input from a toroidal engine that outputs an oscillating motion. The system has a gear set with facing bevel gears that mesh with radially mounted pinions. The bevel gears are mounted on a splined input shaft via bearings and one-way clutches. An overrunning clutch is coupled with each bevel gear. As the input shaft rotates in one direction, the overrunning clutch of one bevel gear is engaged and drives the one gear in the first direction, while the overrunning clutch of the second bevel gear is disengaged and allows the second bevel gear to overrun the input shaft. The overrunning clutch is a type known as a MECHANICAL DIODE®, which engages within 4.5 degrees of rotation, without significant slippage. | 10-02-2008 |

20160101266 | Medical Instrument Clamp - A medical instrument clamp for removably securing an elongated medical instrument within a housing to be conductively connected to a conduit. The present invention generally includes a housing having a first opening at its first end and a second opening at its second end. The first opening leads to a first channel adapted to receive an elongated medical instrument such as a catheter guide wire. The second opening leads to a second channel adapted to receive a conduit such as a connection conduit for a medical device. A contact internal to the housing is positioned between the first and second channels to conductively connect the medical instrument with the conduit. A pair of arms and clamp are included which may be transitioned to open or close in response to manipulation of a knob. By closing the arms and clamp, the medical instrument may be removably secured within the first channel. | 04-14-2016 |
