20150078411TUNABLE LASER, A METHOD FOR MAKING, AND A METHOD FOR OPERATING SUCH A LASER - Semiconductor lasers, in particular Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs) are tuable especially in the mid-IR spectral range, e.g. in wavelengths of about 3-14 μm, by precisely controlling the laser's temperature in the vicinity of the active region. The present invention introduces a novel design for locally heating the active region, thereby allowing fast heating and thus tuning a laser. It is generally applicable for lasers across the field, e.g. to QCLs with multi-color emitters or to Vertical-Cavity Single-Emitter Lasers (VCSELs) or to Distributed Feedback (DFB) lasers. Essentially, the invention consists of structurally integrating a heating resistor as part of the laser, placed close to the component to be temperature-controlled, i.e. the active region or the grating, etc., and feeding this resistor with a variable electrical current in order to locally control the thermal dissipation. In multi-emitter lasers, a resistor can be associated with each emitter section to tune the temperature of each section and thus its emitted wavelength. Similarly, in multisection DBR lasers, with a resistor associated with each grating, the latter can be tuned and thus the associated wavelength of the optical cavity. The invention also includes a novel manufacturing process, especially for buried heterostructure lasers.03-19-2015

20150115934Temperature Compensated Fiber-Optic Current Sensor - In a fiber-optic current sensor, a 22.5° Faraday rotator, which is part of the sensing fiber coil, determines the working point of the sensor. The coil is operated with substantially linearly polarized light or incoherent substantially left and right circularly polarized light waves.

A signal processor determines the current from the two anti-phase signals. Appropriately detuned and oriented fiber-optic half-wave or quarter-wave retarders before the fiber coil are used to reduce or cancel the adverse effects of temperature and bend-induced birefringence on the measurement signal. Moreover, the temperature may be derived from the difference in the bias of the anti-phase signals and may be used to cancel temperature effects in the signal processor.04-30-2015

The cross section of the cavity of the die is made up of a web part and one or more flange parts, for example, such as in preliminary double-T sections. The liquid core of the strand of the preliminary section is set in agitating motions transversely to the direction of continuous casting by selectively using electromagnetically-induced forces in the regions of the flange parts and/or of the web part. The agitating motions have the effect of exchanging the liquid steel in the molten crater of the strand of the preliminary section in and between flange parts and the web part. This allows the flow and temperature conditions in the liquid steel crater within the strand of the preliminary section to be actively influenced in a targeted manner and stabilization of the region of the surface of the liquid metal to be brought about, along with favorable and controllable flow conditions.10-16-2008

20100272542METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MANUFACTURING CONTAINER BODIES FROM METAL SHEET - In the field of manufacturing container bodies by means of resistance seam welding machines, at least a disturbance variable is collected, particularly errors in cutting the metal sheet. Because of this collection of disturbance variables, at least a control variable is automatically changed in order to compensate or to diminish the influence of the disturbance variable on the welding seam quality.10-28-2010
20110000892METHOD AND WELDING DEVICE FOR THE EVALUATION OF THE WELDING CURRENT INTENSITY DURING THE WELDING OF CONTAINER BODIES - In order to evaluate the welding current for the resistance seam welding of an overlap seam of container bodies, a welding with changing welding current intensity is carried out for a container body of the production series, resulting in a changing welding of the seam, ranging from the welding with a too high temperature to the welding with a too low temperature. The electric energy for this welding is determined several times during this welding and/or the temperature of the weld seam is determined several times and the welding current intensity is determined at which the welding of the individual container body is too cold and the welding current intensity at which the welding is too hot. This determination is based on the determined electric energy values and/or on the determined temperature values and based on this determination a preferred range for the welding current intensity within these limits of too hot and too cold is determined. By this, an evaluation if the welding current intensity is correct may take place in a simple way during the production. After the welding of the individual container bodies a changed welding current intensity lying between the welding current intensity of the too hot and of the too cold welding may optionally be set and used for the following series of container bodies of the production series.01-06-2011
