Publication number: 20110049071Abstract: A blind rail to which blind fabric can be attached is disclosed. The rail has a main slot into which an edge portion of the blind fabric can be inserted, and an insert which can be inserted into and securely retained in the main slot with the edge portion to securely attach the blind fabric to the rail. The rail also has an additional slot into which a fold of the blind fabric can be inserted. The way the folded fabric can be secured in the additional slot enables the blind fabric to be attached to the blind rail of the present invention in two different configurations. In one configuration, most of the blind rail remains exposed to give the blind rail a ‘naked’ aesthetic. In the other configuration, the blind fabric may wrap around most of the blind rail giving the blind rail a covered aesthetic.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2008Publication date: March 3, 2011Inventors: Chris Hart, Henk Dogger

Patent number: 7322754Abstract: The invention relates to a compact transmitter optical sub-assembly (OSA), which can be used in small form factor optical transceivers. To limit back reflections from entering the laser cavity, the laser is disposed on a silicon optical bench (SiOB) at an acute angle to the longitudinal axis of the OSA. A portion of the light from the laser cavity passes through the back end of the laser cavity for measuring by a monitor photodiode. A rear beam steering lens redirects the portion of light into a v-groove in the SiOB and off of a reflective surface formed in the end thereof to the monitor photodiode, which is positioned face down over the v-groove.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2005Date of Patent: January 29, 2008Assignee: JDS Uniphase CorporationInventors: Robert K. Wolf, Hui Fu, Anthony T. Yesenofski, Chris Hart, Erji Mao, Heino Bukkems, William K. Hogan

Patent number: 7212554Abstract: A high power light source having an array, bundle or separate plurality of laser diodes coupled to a same number of multimode waveguides to collect beams of light emitted from the of laser diodes is provided. An optical combiner receives the beams of light and combines the beams of light into a single forward propagating beam of light so that substantially all optical radiation within each beam of light overlaps the optical radiation each other beam to form the single beam. A reflective element is located to receive the single forward propagating beam of light and transmits greater than 60% of the single forward propagating beam of light therethrough. The reflective element reflects between 3–40% of the single forward propagating beam back to the laser diodes as feedback to stabilize said laser diodes.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2004Date of Patent: May 1, 2007Assignee: JDS Uniphase CorporationInventors: Erik Paul Zucker, Edmund L. Wolak, Vincent V. Wong, Chris Hart, Jay A. Skidmore, Randolph W. Hines

Publication number: 20050018981Abstract: The invention relates to a receiver optical sub-assembly (ROSA) for use in an optical transceiver to convert optical signals transmitted along an optical fiber into electrical signals for use by a host device. Conventionally, light exiting the optical fiber inside an optical coupler of the ROSA encounters a refractive index mismatched interface, e.g. fiber/air, causing a portion of the light to be reflected directly back into the fiber. To minimize back reflections at the interface with the optical fiber, an optical insert is provided having an index of refraction matching that of the optical fiber, thereby moving the mismatched interface remote from the end of the fiber to an interface of the optical insert and a lens, to which the optical insert is attached.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2004Publication date: January 27, 2005Applicant: JDS Uniphase CorporationInventors: Robert Modavis, Timothy Douglas Goodman, Roger Lindquist, Chris Hart, William Hogan
