20140064310 | PHOTONIC CRYSTAL SURFACE-EMITTING LASERS ENABLED BY AN ACCIDENTAL DIRAC POINT - A photonic-crystal surface-emitting laser (PCSEL) includes a gain medium electromagnetically coupled to a photonic crystal whose energy band structure exhibits a Dirac cone of linear dispersion at the center of the photonic crystal's Brillouin zone. This Dirac cone's vertex is called a Dirac point; because it is at the Brillouin zone center, it is called an accidental Dirac point. Tuning the photonic crystal's band structure (e.g., by changing the photonic crystal's dimensions or refractive index) to exhibit an accidental Dirac point increases the photonic crystal's mode spacing by orders of magnitudes and reduces or eliminates the photonic crystal's distributed in-plane feedback. Thus, the photonic crystal can act as a resonator that supports single-mode output from the PCSEL over a larger area than is possible with conventional PCSELs, which have quadratic band edge dispersion. Because output power generally scales with output area, this increase in output area results in higher possible output powers. | 03-06-2014 |
20140126602 | CONTINUOUS-WAVE ORGANIC DYE LASERS AND METHODS - An organic dye laser produces a continuous-wave (cw) output without any moving parts (e.g., without using flowing dye streams or spinning discs of solid-state dye media to prevent photobleaching) and with a pump beam that is stationary with respect to the organic dye medium. The laser's resonant cavity, organic dye medium, and pump beam are configured to excite a lasing transition over a time scale longer than the associated decay lifetimes in the organic dye medium without photobleaching the organic dye medium. Because the organic dye medium does not photobleach when operating in this manner, it may be pumped continuously so as to emit a cw output beam. In some examples, operation in this manner lowers the lasing threshold (e.g., to only a few Watts per square centimeter), thereby facilitating electrical pumping for cw operation. | 05-08-2014 |

20080216024 | Method and Apparatus for Allocating Data Paths - A method and apparatus to produce high-level synthesis Register Transfer Level designs utilises a trade-off between power dissipation and area usage in data path allocation. Power dissipation and area constraints and a priority between them are input. An algorithm automatically decides the number of registers that are to be used, according to the specified priority and constraints specified. Power management formulations can be used to gear the allocation process to trade lower power management costs for equivalent savings in register areas. Multi-criteria optimisation Integer Linear Programming is utilised with heuristically determined power and area weightings to suit different predefined requirements of the chip design. Bipartite weighted Assignment is used to determine the number of registers to be used at every stage, through cost formulations and the Hungarian Algorithm. | 09-04-2008 |

20100019417 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CURING HEARING AID HOUSINGS - A device and a method for curing plastic moldings are particularly suited for curing hearing aid housings. A light source emits curing light and a holder, at least partially transparent to curing light, holds the plastic moldings. The holder has an elongate light guiding element, which is transparent to curing light, which has an emission portion for emitting curing light in a number of spatial directions, and which is formed in such a way that at least the emission portion can protrude into a convex curvature or an interior space of a plastic molding that is being held by the holder. The light guiding element guides curing light emitted from the light source to the emission portion and emits from there. The light guiding element may have a holding portion for holding the plastic molding. The holding portion and the emission portion may spatially overlap. The method includes a step of irradiating the plastic molding with curing light simultaneously on the outside and the inside by the light source and by the light guiding element.
