    摘要: A lens alignment system and method is disclosed. The disclosed system/method integrates one or more lens retaining members/tubes (LRM/LRT) and focal length spacers (FLS) each comprising a metallic material product (MMP) specifically manufactured to have a thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) in a predetermined range via selection of the individual MMP materials and an associated MMP manufacturing process providing for controlled TEC. This controlled LRM/LRT TEC enables a plurality of optical lenses (POL) fixed along a common optical axis (COA) by the LRM/LRT to maintain precise interspatial alignment characteristics that ensure consistent and/or controlled series focal length (SFL) within the POL to generate a thermally neutral optical system (TNOS). Integration of the POL using this LRM/LRT/FLS lens alignment system reduces the overall TNOS implementation cost, reduces the overall TNOS mass, reduces TNOS parts component count, and increases the reliability of the overall optical system.

    摘要: A nickel alloy sputtering target comprises: a nickel alloy containing an element capable of decreasing the Curie temperature of nickel, wherein an area ratio of a Ni phase having a Ni content of 99.0 mass % or more is 13% or less and an average crystal grain diameter is 100 gm or less. It is preferred that an area ratio of a high-purity Ni phase having a Ni content of 99.5 mass % or more be 5% or less.

    摘要: An electrical contact element for a plug-in connector has a metallic base body and a wear layer applied to the base body. The wear layer consists of pure ruthenium or of an alloy with the components 50-100% w/w ruthenium, 0-30% w/w nickel, 0-20% w/w chromium, 0-20% w/w cobalt, 0-20% w/w platinum and 0-1% w/w further alloy elements. A metallic intermediary layer is arranged between the base body and the wear layer, which has a thickness ranging from 1.5 μm to 4.0 μm.
