  • Rotational Geometric Phase Hologram with Application for Fabricating Geometric Phase Optical Element
    Publication number: 20200096689
    Abstract: A rotational geometric phase hologram has geometric phase optical elements (GPOEs) serially cascaded along a common optical axis to form a GPOE cascade used for receiving a linearly-polarized light beam and generating output light beams at an exit surface of the last GPOE. Interference occurred in the output light beams creates a polarization interference pattern on the exit surface. A photoalignment substrate, when positioned in close proximity to the exit surface, records the pattern. Advantageously, each GPOE is rotatable about the common optical axis. Respective rotation angles of the GPOEs are determined according to a spatially-varying linear polarization orientation distribution selected to be generated for the polarization interference pattern.

  • Lease-based heartbeat protocol method and apparatus
    Patent number: 10601930
    Abstract: A lease-based heartbeat protocol method is provided. The method may include sending a heartbeat request to a server device in a lease period, and receiving a heartbeat request response from the server device; and determining a retry sending at adaptive interval in response to the heartbeat request response being abnormal, and sending a retry heartbeat request to the server device again after the retry sending interval is past, until the lease period expires or a corresponding heartbeat request response is normal. As such, two successive retry heartbeat requests can be sent at a relatively large time interval at an initial stage of heartbeat request retry. At a later stage of the heartbeat request retry, the time interval associated with the retry heartbeat requests is reduced, such that re-sent heartbeat requests can be sent at a higher speed.
