    摘要: Pressure-actuated bi-stable optical switching is provided. In this regard, a pressure-actuated bi-stable optical switch includes an optical path and a cavity intersecting the optical path. The cavity defines a first position along the optical path and a second position displaced from the optical path. An index-matching liquid, which exhibits an index of refraction closer to an index of refraction of the optical path than to that of a vacuum, is arranged within the cavity. A pressure generator generates pressure that selective moves the liquid between the first and second positions. Additionally, a potential profile maintains the liquid in the one of the first and second positions to which it was most recently moved while the pressure generator is not generating pressure. Methods, systems and other switches also are provided.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a photoconductive switch module. The photoconductive switch module comprises a first substrate having light-emitting elements, and a second substrate having photoconductive switch elements, whose number is equal to that of the light-emitting elements. The light-emitting elements face the photoconductive switch elements, so that the photoconductive switch elements are turned on/off in accordance with lighting/extinction of the light-emitting elements. The photoconductive switch module further comprises a third substrate arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate. The third substrate has through holes, whose number is equal to that of the light-emitting elements. Each through hole is positioned between a light-emitting element and a photoconductive switch element facing each other. Drive light emitted from each light-emitting element travels to the photoconductive switch element via the through hole.

    摘要: An exposure apparatus comprises an illumination optical system configured to illuminate an original with exposure light from an exposure light source, a projection optical system configured to project a pattern of the original onto a substrate, and a measuring unit configured to measure a relative position between the original and the substrate via the projection optical system using the exposure light as measurement light. The exposure apparatus exposes the substrate using the exposure light with a plurality of wavelengths or a broadband wavelength upon aligning the original and the substrate based on the measurement result obtained by the measuring unit, and the measuring unit switches a wavelength of the exposure light as the measurement light to a specific wavelength or a narrow-band wavelength in measuring the relative position between the original and the substrate.
