Abstract: Multilayered screens with parallel light-emitting stripes for scanning beam display systems. The light-emitting materials may include phosphor materials and non-phosphor materials.

Abstract: Fluorescent screens and display systems and devices based on such screens using at least one excitation optical beam to excite one or more fluorescent materials on a screen which emit light to form images. The fluorescent materials may include phosphor materials and non-phosphor materials such as quantum dots. A screen may include a multi-layer dichroic layer.

Abstract: Scanning beam display systems based on scanning light on a fluorescent screen. The screen can include fluorescent materials which emit visible light under excitation of the scanning light to form images with the emitted visible light. Multiple lasers can be used to simultaneously scan multiple laser beams to illuminate the screen for enhanced display brightness. For example, the multiple laser beams can illuminate one screen segment at a time and sequentially scan multiple screen segments to complete a full screen.

Abstract: Scanning beam display systems using fluorescent screens and various servo feedback control mechanisms to control display imaging qualities.

Abstract: An apparatus for aligning a lens with an array package holding an optical fiber includes a stage assembly configured to adjustably position the lens relative to the array package. An interferometer has a measurement port in optical communication with the fiber and an output port configured to provide an output signal indicative of a position of the lens relative to the fiber.

Abstract: Three aspect of a interferometer system for testing and characterizing micro-optical components an automatic system for testing a plurality of micro-optical components in sequence, a special holding device including a vacuum chuck arrangement allows for individual micro-optical components to be picked up and held during testing, and a modified Linnik objective is used with short coherent light and preferably a opaque reference sphere to carry out reflection tests on micro-optical component having at least one curved surface.

Abstract: The invention features an apparatus and method for separating an optical beam including multiple wavelength components into targeted subsets of wavelengths by causing different subsets of wavelength components either to undergo a total internal reflection (TIR) at or to transmit through internal surfaces of refractive media.

Abstract: An actuator for controlling a pitch angle and a yaw angle of a mirror in a fiber-optic switch includes a piezoelectric strip having a first and second arm. The first arm extends from a substrate in a first direction. The second arm, which is for attachment to the mirror, extends from the first arm in a second direction different from the first direction. A pitch-electrode, in electrical communication with the first arm, controls pitch angle by causing deflection of the first arm. A yaw-electrode, in electrical communication with the second arm, controls the yaw angle by deflecting the second arm.
