  • Publication number: 20080302982
    Abstract: In general, in a first aspect, the invention features an article that includes a plurality of spaced apart ridges extending along a first direction, adjacent ridges being spaced with a period of ? or less, each ridge comprising a plurality of layers where adjacent layers have different refractive indexes at a first wavelength ?1 and a second wavelength ?2, where ?1 and ?2 are different, ?<??1, and ?<?2. The ridges are configured so that for radiation at ?1 and ?2 incident on the grating, the grating substantially blocks the radiation at ?1 having a first polarization state, substantially transmits the radiation at ?2 having the first polarization state, and substantially transmits the radiation at ?1 and ?2 having a second polarization state, where the first and second polarization states are orthogonal.

  • Patent number: 5271624
    Abstract: A modified sling commonly used in unmodified form for load bearing modified to the extent that one end, a top end consists of a closed eye loop and the other end, a bottom end is flat. The flat bottom end of the device is folded onto the body of the device and a pouch later filled with weighted material is stitched from the fold and then stitched shut thus forming a weighted bottom end. Two VELCRO straps are held to the body of the device by VELCRO hookholds. When the device is to be used, the closed eye loop end is threaded through netting before or after first turning it over the crossbar of a goal.
