With a routing operation on the basis of a wavelength at an intra-ring traffic step, light output from a plurality of demultiplexers is subjected to add/drop and routing processes and is directly or indirectly distributed to a plurality of multiplexers, and at an inter-ring traffic step (including a routing operation on the basis of a wavelength group), among lights output from a plurality of demultiplexers, light of another wavelength preliminarily set for inter-ring transmission and different from the light of the wavelength preliminarily set for the intra-ring transmission is subjected to the routing process, and, therefore, the node apparatus is considerably reduced to a smaller scale as compared to a node apparatus that achieves concatenation in a manner capable of routing lights of all the wavelengths to arbitrary optical rings.08-26-2010

20110251357ULTRAVIOLET TRANSMISSIVE POLYHEDRAL SILSESQUIOXANE POLYMERS - Inorganic/organic hybrid polymers containing silsesquioxane cages are robust and exhibit desirable physical properties such as strength, hardness, and optical transparency at infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths. The polymers are prepared by polymerizing functionalized polyhedral silsesquioxane monomers such as polyhedral silsesquioxanes bearing two complementarily reactive functional groups bonded to cage silicon atoms by means of spacer moieties. The spacer moieties allow for steric mobility and more complete cure than polyhedral silsesquioxanes bearing reactive functional groups bound directly to cage silicon atoms.10-13-2011
