Patent number: 6094445Abstract: A high-efficiency cavity doubling laser according to the invention contains a laser diode, a laser crystal and a non-linear crystal, is characterized in having a first gap between the laser diode and the laser crystal and a second gap between the laser crystal and the non-linear crystal. Therefore, heat created by the laser crystal can be dissipated by the air gaps and cannot be directly conducted to the laser diode and the non-linear crystal. Furthermore, the thermal distortion of the laser crystal can be compensated by adjusting the position of the non-linear crystal, thereby increasing the efficiency of the laser.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 1998Date of Patent: July 25, 2000Assignee: Simpatico Industries Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yung-Fu Chen, Chi-Luen Wang, Chien Yen-Jen, Jang Chaur-Sen

Patent number: 5821528Abstract: The present invention includes two photodiodes in parallel connected to some transistors and an adjustable current source. The photocurrent difference from the two photodiodes combines with the current form the current source to be a positive value. This current then charges a capacitor. An automatic comparator circuit detects voltage of the charging capacitor. The Q output of the RS flip-flop is low and the transistor is off to charge the capacitor if the voltage of the capacitor is below a preset value. The buffer output is at low voltage in this case; The Q output of the RS flip-flop is high and the transistor is on to force discharging of the capacitor and the buffer output is at high level when the capacitor voltage reaches a preset value. By repeating these conditions, frequency modulated output can be obtained. The frequency value is related to the two light intensities difference and the current source combined current. When light intensity varies, the frequency varies accordingly.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 1996Date of Patent: October 13, 1998Assignee: National Science CouncilInventors: Tai Shan Liao, Jui I.
