    Abstract: A saturable inductor switch for compressing the width and sharpening the rise time of high voltage pulses from a relatively slow rise time, high voltage generator to an electric discharge gas laser (EDGL). The switch also provides a capability for efficient energy transfer from a high impedance primary source to an intermediate low impedance laser discharge network. More specifically, a saturable inductor switch is positioned with respect to a capacitive storage device, such as a coaxial cable, so that when a charge build-up in the storage device reaches a predetermined level, saturation of the switch inductor releases or switches energy stored in the capacitive storage device to the EDGL. Also disclosed are cascaded saturable inductor switches for providing output pulses having rise times of less than ten nanoseconds as required for efficient excitation of EDGL's, the pulse rise time being determined by the thickness of a high permeability material forming the saturable inductor switch. In addition, a technique for magnetically biasing the saturable inductor switch is disclosed so that only pulses from a pulse generator having one polarity are passed and pulses having the other polarity are blocked, thereby improving the lifetime of electrical components that are sensitive to voltage reversals.

    Abstract: A device for irradiating a limited, defined area where uniform and intense irradiation is obtained of a sharply defined light field (7) of variable size, the light from a halogen lamp (1) or similar incoherent light source being directed by means of an elliptical mirror (2) towards one end surface (3) of a transparent rod (4) whose opposite end surface (6) is thereby uniformly irradiated and is imaged by a lens (7) in the area (9) which has to be irradiated.

    Abstract: A lighting apparatus for illuminating optical fibers includes a high-intensity gas-discharge lamp comprising electrodes (9,11) positioned within a reflector assembly (24) that focuses radiation (51,53) from the electrodes (9,11) onto a remote focal point (39), and that selectively transmits and reflects desired visible radiation and attenuates undesirable ultraviolet and infrared radiation. Alignment procedures in assembly process ensure maximization of flux intensity supplied to optical fibers positioned at the remote focal point (39) of the reflector assembly.

    Abstract: A band-pass filter circuit comprising a band-pass filter for removing noise modulation components from an input signal comprising a carrier sine wave, a phase detector for detecting a phase difference between input and output signals of the band-pass filter, a loop filter supplied with the output from the phase detector, and automatic control means for effecting control by the output from the loop filter so that a difference between the frequency of the input sine wave and the center frequency of the band-pass filter is reduced to zero. For carrier recovery in a burst mode, the loop filter is selected for each particular case so that high-speed pulling-in is possible even if a narrow-band filter is employed as the band-pass filter for the removal of noise components. Also, high-speed and high-precision pulling-in is achieved when many bursts of different frequencies are applied in one frame period. Further, when common and individual frequency variations occur at the same time, high-speed pulling-in is also achieved for each burst.

    Abstract: In an electron gun, an anode structure in which the electron beam aperture is defined by four mutually insulated anode segments which may be energized to provide beam centering. In a preferred embodiment, the anode segments are shaped to intercept the beam if it is off-center, and are returned to ground potential through respective resistors thereby being operative automatically to center the beam.

The construction enables the beam to be centred on the defining apertures, and preferably the segments are connected to ground for instance via 5M# resistors (Fig. 5, not shown) any segment intercepting the beam becoming negatively charged to deflect the beam. Alternatively, potentials may be applied to opposed segments. Cathode 10 and conductors 16, 18 in ceramic header 20 are preferably of W. Cylindrical grid 14 is secured to rectangular ceramic frame 24 secured by screws 26 preferably in metal pins 27. Grid 14 may be stainless steel and dimensions are given. The anode segments may be formed by drilling and slotting a Ti rod, e.g. 0À802 inch long and “ inch diameter screw holes (37a, 37b) being initially formed for attachment to ceramic spacers 60, 66 preferably boron nitride or anodized Al about Ti anode shield 46. Slot, bore and taper dimensions are disclosed, bore 70 being 0À005 inch diameter for example. Ti cup 72 includes portion 74 spaced 0À030 inch from the segments and Pt disc insert 78 with beam defining aperture 78 1 , (e.g. 10Á diameter) the insert being spot welded or held by a retaining member.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a crossover diameter, consequently reduce an electron beam spot diameter on a plane of projection and lengthen the life of a cathode. SOLUTION: A first electron beam 20 emitted from a cathode 11 is converted into light by a phosphor film 31 provided on an emittance conversion element 21. The converted light is converted into a second electron beam 25 emitted perpendicularly to a plane of a photo cathode film 34 by the photo cathode film 34. A diameter of a crossover 24 is determined by only sum of aberration of an electric field lens formed of second grids 22, 23 and an electronic repulsion effect, a spot size of second electron beam 25 on a plane of projection is made smaller and the life of the cathode 11 is lengthened.
