  • Publication number: 20080002556
    Abstract: The present invention provides an optical head with a single or multiple sub-wavelength light beams, which can be used in arenas such as photolithography, optical storage, optical microscopy, to name a few. The present invention includes a transparent substrate, a thin film, and a surface structure with sub-wavelength surface profile. The incident light transmits through the transparent substrate, forms a surface plasma wave along the sub-wavelength aperture located within the thin film, and finally re-emits through spatial coupling with the sub-wavelength profile of the surface structure. As the coupled re-emitting light beam or light beams can maintain the waist less than that of the diffraction limit for a few micrometers out of the surface with sub-wavelength profile in many cases, this invention can have applications ranging from micro or nano manufacturing, metrology, and manipulation by using light beams with waist smaller than the diffraction limit.

  • Patent number: 6927911
    Abstract: The light-guide module for emitting particular polarized light beams includes a splitter for separating non-polarized light beams, a transformer for converting polarization of light beams, and a non-polarized light source. The non-polarized light source emits light beams. Particular polarized light beams pass the splitter and other light beams are reflected by the splitter. Polarizations of reflected light beams and of light beams emitted by the non-polarized light source are converted by the transformer so as to separate the light beams later. Thus the light-guide module for emitting particular polarized light beams loses relatively little light energy.

  • Publication number: 20030161047
    Abstract: An optical apparatus made for either imaging or light-blurring application is disclosed. The optical apparatus has two arrays of one-dimensional optical elements. Each of the two arrays has a number of elongated cylindrical optical elements arrayed consecutively in parallel and spreading along a first extension-profiling direction generally orthogonal to their longitudinal axes. The two arrays are superposed together with their general direction extension profile twisted with respect to each other at a selected angle. The superposition spreads an extended layer of optical system having a number of lens units formed from the superposition. All the lens units are arrayed in a two-dimensional matrix of moire fringe. More than two arrays of one-dimensional optical elements can be used to construct an optical apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20030098411
    Abstract: The invention is using the phase information contained in the diffraction light of the grating, to analyze the velocity and the displacement of the object having the grating attached. By using the relative placement of the optical elements, the entire optical scale system has high tolerance to the phase difference that is caused by the grating optical scale and the relative calibration error of the grating optical scale and the laser light head. Due to the light beam is focused on the diffraction grating, the wave-front of the signal light is relatively not impacted by the geometrical characteristics of the diffraction grating, the geometrical characteristics of the diffraction grating includes something like the interval is not even or the surface is bending. The excellent signal visibility can be obtained by applying the linear grating, radial grating, or the cylindrical grating as the grating in the design according to the present invention.
