Abstract: In one aspect of the present invention, a method is provided for communicating radiation pressure provided by a light wave. The method entails positioning a reflective prism (606, 607) having a near total reflective surface, including an initial transparent surface (614A, 614B) and a pair of reflective surfaces (612) each positioned at an angle relative to the initial transparent surface. Then, a light wave is directed toward the reflective prism, such that the light wave is generally normal to the transparent surface and passes therethrough. The light wave further reflects from the first and then the second reflective surface and exits the prism through the transparent surface. In this way, radiation pressure communicated by the relecting light wave acts on the prism.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for sensing electric and electromagnetic fields incorporating a fiber-optic transducer which mounts directly on a conventional optical fiber waveguide. The transducer employs a conductive Fabry-Perot microcavity bounded by a conductive, thin and corrugated diaphragm. When the conductive microcavity is placed in an electric field, the electric field is excluded from within the equipotential microcavity and a net electrostatic force acts on the diaphragm. Likewise, when the conductive microcavity is exposed to an electromagnetic wave, the wave exerts a radiation pressure on the diaphragm. In both cases, the diaphragm deflects linearly and uniformly under the influence of the extremely low electrostatic pressures which are induced. The diaphragm deflection modulates the reflectance within the optical fiber by varying the gap of the cavity. The change in reflected light is measured and correlated to the field strength using an improved dual-wavelength referencing technique which compensates for bending and transmission losses in the optical fiber.

Abstract: 電磁光波に存在するエネルギを利用する方法及び装置、特に、光波における放射圧を利用する技術を提供する。 光波を伝達又はそうでなければ操作し、及び／又は光波によって生じる放射圧を伝達する方法及び装置も提供する。 本発明の一態様では、光波によって生じる放射圧を伝達する方法を提供する。 本方法は、最初の透過表面と、各々が最初の透過表面に対してある一定の角度で位置決めされた１対の反射面とを含む近全反射面を有する反射プリズムを位置決めする段階を伴う。 次に、光波は、光波が透過表面に対してほぼ垂直であり、かつそれを通過するように反射プリズムの方向に誘導される。 光波は、更に、第１及び次に第２の反射面から反射し、透過表面を通じてプリズムを出射する。 このようにして、反射する光波によって伝達される放射圧が、プリズムに対して作用する。
