    摘要: A device includes three elements fabricated on a common substrate. The first element includes an active waveguide structure having at least three sub-layers supporting a first optical mode. The second element has a passive waveguide structure supporting a second optical mode, and the third element, butt-coupled to the first element, has an intermediate waveguide structure supporting intermediate optical modes. One sub-layer in the active waveguide structure includes an n-contact layer, another sub-layer includes a p-contact layer, and a third sub-layer includes an active region. A tapered waveguide structure in at least one of the second and third elements facilitates efficient adiabatic transformation between the second optical mode and an intermediate optical mode. No adiabatic transformation occurs between that intermediate optical mode and the first optical mode. Mutual alignments of the three elements are defined using lithographic alignment marks that facilitate precise alignment between layers formed fabrication of the elements.

    摘要: A device comprises three elements, realized as photonic integrated circuits. The first element comprises a tunable semiconductor laser emitting light at a laser output wavelength. The second element comprises a wavelength selective element, coupled to the first element. The third element comprises N photodetectors where N>=2, coupled to the second element. Light coupled into the second element from the first element is de-multiplexed by the wavelength selective element such that a ratio of light power coupled from the second element into one of the N photodetectors to light power coupled from the second element into another one of the N photodetectors is a function of the laser output wavelength. The responses of the N photodetectors facilitate at least one of measurement and control of the laser output wavelength.

    摘要: A device comprises three elements. The first element, comprising an optical gain structure and a laser cavity mirror structure, couples light to the second element, comprising a phase tuner. The second element couples phase tuned light to the third element. The third element, comprising an optical resonator with first and second coupler/splitter structures, provides a primary optical output from the second coupler/splitter structure. Light coupled into the optical resonator through the first coupler/splitter structure and then coupled out of the optical resonator though the first coupler/splitter structure is injected back into the optical gain structure through the second element. Light coupled out of the optical resonator through the second coupler/splitter structure is provided as the primary optical output. Characteristic of the coupler/splitter structures and the optical resonator are selected such that the light injected back into the optical gain structure reduces linewidth, and noise in primary optical output is suppressed.

    摘要: A bone anchor insertion device comprises a handle, a nosepiece connected to a distal end of the handle, a bone anchor connected to the nosepiece, and an actuator disposed on the handle for deploying the bone anchor, which suture is also fixed to a portion of soft tissue to be attached to a portion of bone. A suture ratchet or tensioning mechanism is disposed in the handle for tensioning suture which is associated with the bone anchor. This mechanism permits precise tensioning, while also permitting one-handed operation, thereby allowing the practitioner to use his or her other hand for other activities, such as camera operation or the like.

    摘要: A device for percutaneously excising tissue. In an embodiment, the device comprises an elongate body including a first member having a distal cutting end and a second member that slidingly engages the first member. In addition, the second member includes a tissue capture chamber having an opening facing the first member. Further, the first member is moveable relative to the second member between an opened position and a closed position, wherein the first member is disposed across the tissue capture chamber of the second member when the first member is in the closed position.

    摘要: In the process of refilling a consumed inkjet printer cartridge, the nozzle and the internal ink carrier medium are cleaned by applying steam under pressure in short burst intervals at the nozzle. The dissolved ink remnant in the cartridge is extracted by a suction device applied over the nozzle. The completely cleaned cartridge is refilled by injecting fresh ink through a refill opening formed in the cartridge casing at a location directly opposite to the nozzle.
