  • Publication number: 20230328874
    Abstract: The invention relates to an EMC filter for a control device. The filter includes a multilayer circuit carrier comprising electrically conductive layers, in particular copper layers, and electrically insulating circuit board layers. According to the invention, the circuit carrier of the aforementioned type forms at least two filter capacitors, wherein in each case the filter capacitors are formed by electrically conductive layers that are formed in the circuit carrier and lie across from one another and/or extend parallel at a distance from each other.

  • Patent number: 7733742
    Abstract: This invention concerns an acousto-optic imaging method comprising a step which consists in engraving in a dynamic holographic material a complex index array resulting from the interference of the acousto-optic component of the signal wave and a pump wave of frequency equal to the frequency of the acousto-optic component.

  • Publication number: 20070151343
    Abstract: The inventive method for opto-acoustical imagery of an image object (OBJ) consists in a) generating an incident optical wave (INC) and a reference optical wave (REF) coherent therewith, b) oscillating the image object (OBJ) area at an acoustic frequency, c) sending the incident wave (INC) to said image object (OBJ), thereby generating a diffused signal wave (DIF), d) sending at least one part of said diffused signal wave (DIF) to a detection device (DET), e) sending the reference optical wave (REF) to the detection device (DET) avoiding the image object (OBJ), thereby generating an interferogram I (r, t), f) extracting digital information from said interferogram I (r, t), and in g) obtaining co-ordinates (U, V, W) from one measurement point of the image object (OBJ) associated to said digital information.

  • Patent number: 6330086
    Abstract: A digital holography device, applicable for example to the 3D mapping of objects, is used to determine the complex amplitude of a signal wave coming from an object illuminated by a known illumination wave. For this purpose, the device includes a source for the generation of two mutually coherent waves, the object illumination wave and a reference wave, the two waves having a phase difference &phgr;i(t) that is a function of time. The device also includes a mechanism configured to induce an interference, on a detection device, between the reference wave and the signal wave coming from the object. The detection device enables a temporal sampling of the interference pattern resulting in the acquisition of a number N of interferograms, N being greater than or equal to 2.

  • Patent number: 5119035
    Abstract: A millimeter and/or submillimeter network vector analyzer comprises a millimeter source and a millimeter heterodyne receiver, and the network to be analyzed is placed between the source and the receiver. The millimeter source comprises a first microwave source feeding a millimeter harmonic generator. The millimeter heterodyne receiver comprises a millimeter harmonic mixer which is fed by a second microwave source which serves as a local oscillator for it, an HF (high frequency) vector receiver and a device for displaying the characteristics of the analyzed network. The analyzer includes a device for servocontrolling the frequency of emission of the second microwave source by the frequency of the first microwave source (or conversely), and a main HF (high frequency) oscillator activating this servocontrol device. The main oscillator is also directly used as a phase reference for the HF (high frequency) vector receiver.
