G02B006/27
G02B006/32

US Classification:

385/011000, 385/035000

Abstract:

In accordance with the invention, an optical fiber system comprising a laser source an optical fiber including a reflective input end for receiving light from the source is provided with a polarization quarter-wave plate between the laser and the reflective end for minimizing power fluctuations from back reflection. The quarter-wave plate does not prevent back reflection but rather rotates the polarization of the back reflected light so that it does not interfere with the polarized light within the cavity. In an advantageous embodiment the quarter-wave plate is disposed within a receptacle laser package.

G10K 11/16

Abstract:

Embodiments of a laminate exhibiting enhanced acoustic performance are described. In one or more embodiments, the laminate includes a first substrate, an interlayer structure and a second substrate. One or both the first substrate and the second substrate have a thickness less than about 1.5 mm. In one or more embodiments, the interlayer structure includes a first interlayer and a second interlayer, wherein the first interlayer has a lower shear modulus than the second interlayer and is positioned near the center of the laminate (i.e., positioned at a thickness range from about 0.4t to about 0.6t, where t is the laminate thickness). The laminates exhibit a transmission loss of greater than about 38 dB over a frequency range from about 2500 Hz to about 6000 Hz. Vehicles and architectural panels including the laminates described herein are also provided.
