Abstract:
The present invention discloses a sampling component comprising a sampling body that can be electrically heated and the outer surface of which has a wiping sampling area; and an insulated handle that is connected with one longitudinal end of the sampling body. The sampling component according to the present invention contacts directly the contacts of an external power supply after being disposed in a analysis chamber, the power supply is turned on to heat the sampling body so as to realize sample pyrolysis, and the power is turned off immediately after the sampling component is taken away. Thus, the power supply of the sampler can work discontinuously so that the power consumption of the system is reduced, meanwhile, the system malfunction caused by a long-term work of the sampling device under a high temperature can be avoided. The present invention further discloses a sampling device having said sampling component and an ion mobility spectrometer having the sampling device.
Abstract:
An integrated photonics module includes at least one light source and a MEMS scanner coupled to and held in alignment by an optical frame configured for mounting to a host system. According to some embodiments, the integrated photonics module may include a plurality of light sources and a beam combiner coupled to the optical frame. According to some embodiments, the integrated photonics module includes a selective fold mirror configured to direct at least a portion of emitted light toward the MEMS scanner in a normal direction and pass scanned light through to a field of view. The selective fold mirror may use beam polarization to select beam passing and reflection. The integrated photonics module may include a beam rotator such as a quarter-wave plate to convert the polarization of the emitted light to a different polarization adapted for passage through the fold mirror. The integrated photonics module may include one or more light detectors.

Abstract:
A laser drive controller compensates for temperature-dependent effects of a temperature-sensitive laser. Temperature variations in the laser may be measured and/or predicted based on variable pulsed output. The controller may drive the laser to maintain temperature and/or to compensate for variations in temperature. The techniques may be applied to a laser scanner, scanned beam display, laser printer, laser camera, scanned beam imager, etc.
Abstract:
In a non-collinear type acousto-optic tunable filter, the incident angle of a source light beam L.sub.1 radiated from a light source 6 onto an acoustic medium 1 is set at an equivalence incident angle for which the wavelength .lambda..sub.i of the diffracted ordinary ray L.sub.3 and the wavelength .lambda..sub.i ' of the diffracted extraordinary ray L.sub.4 become approximately identical. Further, the diffracted ordinary ray L.sub.3 and the diffracted extraordinary ray L.sub.4 of the approximately identical wavelength are superposed, and the intensity of the superposed ray is detected. Consequently, spectrometry is performed based on the superposed diffracted ray having twice the intensity and a very sharp waveform, so that accurate spectroscopy can be made possible even if the intensity of the source light beam is low.
Abstract:
The temperature of a laser diode changes in response to video content across a line of a displayed image, and the radiance changes as a function of temperature. An adaptive model estimates the temperature of the laser diode based on prior drive current values. For each displayed pixel, diode drive current is determined from the estimated diode temperature and a desired radiance value. A feedback circuit periodically measures the actual temperature and updates the adaptive model.
