  • Publication number: 20230100547
    Abstract: This invention relates to an e-cigarette rechargeable battery charging case comprising: a base comprising a first recess for receiving an e-cigarette rechargeable battery, a cover covering said first recess when in closed position and making said first recess accessible when in open position, a flexible hinge linking said cover to said base, a first extension of said hinge being fastened to cover structure, and a second extension of said hinge being fastened to base structure, wherein said second hinge extension: cooperates with at least an aligning part of base structure, so as to align said base and said hinge with respect to each other, and is tightened between tightening parts of said base structure, so as to maintain aligned said base and said hinge with respect to each other, over time, despite successive openings and closings of said cover.

  • Publication number: 20140328365
    Abstract: A multifunctional laser device configured to be applicable as such in each of: multiple photon processes, nano structuring processes, optical coherence tomography, Terahertz (THZ) spectroscopy, THz imaging; or a combination of such processes; and comprising a mode-locked linear (X or Z-folded) fs laser resonator having a repetition rate of at least 300 MHz and 600 MHz at most and, thus, a corresponding short resonator length, said fs laser resonator further being a dispersive mirrors cavity having an average negative GDD (Group Delay Dispersion) in the spectral range of the laser operation, and being arranged to generate laser pulses with a pulse width of less than 30 fs, and comprising a pump laser operating at an optical output pump power of less than 2 W.

  • Patent number: 8135053
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a laser crystal device (1) for short pulse lasers, comprising a container (4), the interior of which is sealed relative to the environment and which contains a technically pure atmosphere with windows (12, 13) in the side walls (12, 13) for the passage of laser radiation (16), which in operation passes through a laser crystal (6), wherein the window (12, 13) has an inclination of the Brewster angle to the beam path of the laser radiation (16) and a mounting (5) for the laser crystal (6) is provided within the container (4), the windows (12, 13) are inclined to each other by double the Brewster angle and are placed at an adequate distance from the laser crystal (6) position, with relation to the laser beam properties, wherein the beam cross section at the windows (12, 13) is sufficiently large in order to guarantee a peak intensity at the windows (12, 13) which is sufficiently reduced in relation to the peak intensity of the laser beam (16) at the laser crystal (6) for avoidin
