  • Integrated Optics Waveguide Accelerometer With A Proof Mass Adapted To Exert Force Against The Optical Waveguide During Acceleration

    view source
  • US Patent:
    6018390, Jan 25, 2000
  • Filed:
    Jan 27, 1998
  • Appl. No.:
    9/014111
  • Inventors:
    Bruce Youmans - Sierra Vista AZ
    Victor Vali - Laguna Hills CA
    Colleen Fitzpatrick - Fountain Valley CA
  • Assignee:
    Rice Systems, Inc. - Irvine CA
  • International Classification:
    G01B 902
  • US Classification:
    356345
  • Abstract:
    A sensor, an optical accelerometer, which is sensitive enough for the measurement of nano-g's as well as thousands of g's. The sensor is created by an optical waveguide coil which is secured to a substrate. At one end of the waveguide coil, a mirror reflects the emitting light back into the waveguide coil. Positioned along one side of the substrate, a proof mass is adapted to exert force against and deform the optical waveguide coil during acceleration of the sensor. An identical optical waveguide coil is secured to the opposing side of the substrate with its associated proof mass positioned on the side of the substrate opposite the other side's proof mass. A beamsplitter communicates light into the ends of the two waveguide coils and then a monitor uses the light being emitted from the ends of the coils to measure the g's being applied.

  • US Patent:
    52125831, May 18, 1993
  • Filed:
    Jan 8, 1992
  • Appl. No.:
    7/818315
  • Inventors:
    Victor Vali - Laguna Hills CA
    David B. Chang - Tustin CA

  • Assignee:
    Hughes Aircraft Company - Los Angeles CA
  • International Classification:
    G02F 103
    G02F 133
  • US Classification:
    359245
  • Abstract:
    An adaptive electroopical lens system for use in optical data storage systems, optical phased arrays, laser or other optical projectors, and raster scanning devices, and the like. The invention provides an electrooptical means for scanning an optical beam or moving an optical storage or retrieval point. Beam movement is achieved electrooptically, by changing the index of refraction of an electrooptical material by controlling electric fields applied thereto. A plurality of electrodes are disposed on one surface of the electrooptic material and a ground electrode is disposed on the other. The electrodes are adapted to apply electric fields derived from a voltage source to the electroopic material that selectively change its index of refraction and provides for a predetermined index of refraction profile along at least one dimension thereof, thus forming a lens. By appropriately forming the electrode pattern and properly controlling the voltages applied thereto, differing lens shapes may be formed. Since the response times of the electrooptic materials employed in the present invention are on the order of nanoseconds (10. sup.

  • US Patent:
    46627510, May 5, 1987
  • Filed:
    Sep 24, 1985
  • Appl. No.:
    6/779744
  • Inventors:
    Willis C. Goss - Altadena CA
    Bruce R. Youmans - Temple City CA
    Noble M. Nerheim - Arcadia CA

  • Assignee:

    National Aeronautics and Space Administration - Washington DC
  • International Classification:
    G01B 902
  • US Classification:
    356350
  • Abstract:
    An improved optical gyroscope is provided, of the type that passes two light components in opposite directions through an optic fiber coil, and which adds a small variable frequency to one of the light components to cancel the phase shift due to rotation of the coil. The amount of coil rotation from an initial orientation, is accurately determined by combining the two light components, one of which has a slightly increased frequency, to develop beats that each represent a predetermined angle of rotation. The direction of rotation is obtained by combining the two light components on a photodetector, intermittently phase shifting a single light component by 90. degree. , and comparing the direction of change of photodetector output (+ or -) caused by the 90. degree. shift, with the slope (+ or -) of the photodetector output at about the same time, when there is a 90. degree. shift.

    62590898, Jul 10, 2001
  • Filed:
    May 15, 1998
  • Appl. No.:
    9/079581
  • Inventors:
    Victor Vali - Laguna Hills CA
    Bruce Youmans - Sierra Vista AZ
    Colleen Fitzpatrick - Fountain Valley CA
  • Assignee:
    Rice Systems, Inc. - Irvine CA
  • International Classification:
    G01C 1972
  • US Classification:
    25023112
  • Abstract:
    A gyroscope which utilizes light waves to sense motion in the plane of the substrate. The gyroscope has a primary optical waveguide which is adapted to pass light from a single light source through the primary optical waveguide in both directions. The light exiting from each end of the primary optical waveguide is withdrawn and passed through two dedicated waveguides (one dedicated waveguide for each end of the primary optical waveguide). Preferably, these two dedicated waveguides have differing times for light travel such that one of the dedicated waveguides emits its light one-quarter wavelength behind the other dedicated waveguide. The light being emitted from each dedicated waveguide is then combined permitting a sensor to monitor any shifts between the two light signals as a monitor to motion of the primary optical waveguide.

  • US Patent:
    50188275, May 28, 1991
  • Filed:
    Oct 3, 1989
  • Appl. No.:
    7/426125
  • Inventors:
    Patrick Brownrigg - Long Beach CA
    Victor Vali - Laguma Hills CA
    Bruce Youmans - Temple City CA
  • International Classification:
    G02B 616
  • US Classification:
    350 9630
  • Abstract:
    An optical fiber is constructed by selecting a first material for a core of the optical fiber. The first material has a known coefficient of thermal expansion,. alpha. sub. 1, and a known temperature dependent rate of change, dn/dT, of an index of refraction, n. A second material (cladding) has a predetermined coefficient of thermal expansion,. alpha. sub. 2, and a radius, R. sub. 2, about the axis of the fiber. The radius, R. sub. 2, of the cladding is determined such that an effective coefficient of thermal expansion for the fiber is substantially equal to the negative of the product of the reciprocal of the index of refraction of the first material and the temperature dependent rate of change of the index of refraction of the first material, i. e. . alpha. =(-1/n)dn/dT.
