    摘要: A laser source assembly (210) for generating an assembly output beam (212) includes a first laser source (218A), a second laser source (218B), and a dispersive beam combiner (222). The first laser source (218A) emits a first beam (220A) having a first center wavelength, and the second laser source (218B) emits a second beam (220B) having a second center wavelength that is different than the first center wavelength. The dispersive beam combiner (222) includes a common area 224 that combines the first beam (220A) and the second beam (220B) to provide the assembly output beam (212). The first beam (220A) impinges on the common area (224) at a first beam angle (226A), and the second beam (220B) impinges on the common area (224) at a second beam angle (226B) that is different than the first beam angle (226A). Further, the beams (220A) (220B) that exit from the dispersive beam combiner (222) are substantially coaxial, are fully overlapping, and are co-propagating.

    摘要: A cancellation feature (2203) for a pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly (10) having a first surface (2201) and a second surface (2202) can include a first cancellation member (2204) that is secured to the first surface (2204) and a second cancellation member (2205) that is secured to the second surface (2205). The second cancellation member (2205) automatically moves from a pre-engaged configuration that allows engagement with the first cancellation member (2204) to a post-engaged configuration that inhibits engagement with the first cancellation member (2204). The automatic movement occurs after engagement and/or during disengagement between the second cancellation member (2205) and the first cancellation member (2204). The first surface (2201) can form a portion of a receiver that receives pharmaceutical waste, and the second surface (2202) can form a portion of a receiver retainer that retains the receiver. Conversely, the second surface (2202) can form a portion of the receiver and the first surface (2201) can form a portion of the receiver retainer.

The gain medium (14) has a growth direction (14C), a fast axis (14A), a first facet (34A), and a second facet (34B) that is spaced apart from the first facet (34A). The gain medium (14) emits from both facets (34A) (34B). Further, a beam polarization (30) of the light beam (32) emitting from the second facet (34B) is perpendicular to the growth direction (14C) and the fast axis (14A). The grating (24) includes a plurality of grating ridges (24A) that are oriented parallel to the beam polarization (30). Moreover, each of the grating ridges (24A) can have a substantially rectangular shaped cross-sectional profile.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for facilitating control interface failover in a media storage device is described. In one embodiment, the method couples a media changer device to a plurality of removable media storage drives, where each removable media storage drive comprises a first port having a first port name and assigns a second port name to either the first port or to a second port of a first removable media storage drive in the plurality of removable media storage drives, where the second port name comprises at least a portion of portable identity data. The method preserves the portable identity data to be utilized during a control interface failover process to transfer the second port name from the first removable media storage drive to a second removable media storage drive in the plurality of removable media storage drives.

    摘要: An exemplary magnetic head assembly for use with magnetic recording media is provided. In one example, a head includes a data island associated with at least one data transducer, the data island having a width along a direction of media transport and a radius of curvature. The magnetic head further includes a mini-outrigger placed adjacent to the data island and separated by a void, wherein a width of the mini-outrigger along the direction of media transport is less than the width of the data island. Additionally, in one example, the radius of curvature of the mini-outrigger is less than the radius of curvature of the data island. The wrap angle of magnetic storage tape to the data island may be less than 3 degrees. Further, the radius of curvature of the mini-outrigger may be less than one-half the radius of curvature of the data island.
