  • Publication number: 20200256441
    Abstract: A blade assembly is disclosed herein that avoids the issues associated with aligning mating parts formed on blades with the shell during assembly. The blade assembly disclosed herein eliminates the need for embossments or pierced slots on the shell, and the need for mating tabs on the blades. In one embodiment, the blade assembly includes a shell defining an inner surface, and a plurality of blades arranged around the inner surface of the shell. The plurality of blades each include at least one axially extending leg adapted to contact the inner surface of the shell, and the plurality of blades are attached to the shell via brazing.

  • Patent number: 7548358
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for obtaining a phase conjugate reconstruction beam for use in retrieving holographic information from a holographic storage medium. These methods and systems include generating a coherent light beam that is a reproduction of the reference beam used in storing the holographic information in the storage medium. This coherent light beam is then directed through the holographic storage medium at the same angle and location of the reference beam during recording of the hologram. The directed coherent beam is then reflected back through the storage medium so that the reflected coherent light beam provides a phase conjugate of the reference beam and passes through the storage medium at the same angle and location that the reference beam passed through the storage medium during recordation of the hologram.

  • Patent number: 7397571
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided or use with a light source which generates a light beam. These systems may include a detector which detects light beam information and which determines whether multiple modes are present in the light beam so that the light source may be adjusted. These systems may further include a beam splitting device, such as an optical wedge, to provide two sample beams that intersect to provide a fringe pattern. The detector may then detect this fringe pattern and compute a visibility value that may be used to determine whether multiple modes are present.

  • Publication number: 20070082179
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for fabricating a multi-layer optical article includes grasping an outer surface of a first substrate with a first holder, whereby the outer surface of the first substrate is held to an inner surface of the first holder, grasping an outer surface of a second substrate with a second holder, whereby the outer surface of the second substrate is held to an inner surface of the second holder, arranging the inner surfaces of the holders to face one another, arranging at least one spacer element between the holders, disposing an adherent on the inner surface of one of the substrates, moving the holders together such that the holders contact the at least one spacer and the substrates contact the adherent, and at least partially curing the adherent while the inner surfaces of the holders are in a selected angular relationship.

  • Publication number: 20060291023
    Abstract: Aspects of the present invention are generally directed to a holographic system. Generally, aspects of the present invention are directed to allocating power of a light beam generated by a coherent light source among the various discrete light beams used in a holographic system. Specifically, a variable optical divider is incorporated into an optical steering subsystem of the holographic memory system to redirect the coherent light beam into one or more discrete light beams, and to dynamically allocate power of the coherent light beam among the discrete light beams.

  • Publication number: 20060291022
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system comprising a holographic data storage drive that records holographic digital data in a holographic recording medium, and which comprises: a data beam path having a first optical path length; and a reference beam path having a second optical path length; wherein one of the data beam and reference beams paths comprise an optical delay line so that the difference between the first and second optical path lengths is less than the laser coherence length. The present invention further relates to a method for operating a laser in the holographic data storage drive in a multi-mode state during the recording of holographic digital data the holographic medium without adverse effects on the strength of the interference patterns formed.
