    Abstract: PURPOSE:To permit provision of a smaller space for housing an optical pickup by forming an image to one point on the lateral side of an optical fiber member apart from the central axial line of the optical fiber. CONSTITUTION:The front end face of the optical fiber member 1 is inclined by an angle phi with the central axial line of the optical fiber to form a light reflection surface 4. The curvature X in the inclination direction of the light reflection surface 4 and the curvature Y in the direction perpendicular to the inclination direction are varied and these curvatures are so set that the propagated light forms the image at one point 0 on the lateral side of the optical fiber member 1. The propagated light is, therefore, constituted of the reflected light governed by the curvature X in the inclination direction at the light reflection surface 4 and the reflected light governed by the curvature Y in the direction perpendicular to the reflection direction. Since the disposition of the optical fiber 1 in parallel with, for example, the reflection recording surface of an optical disk is thereby permitted, the use of this device as a compact optical pickup is possible.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To weld and connect two vertically cut plarization plane maintaining optical fibers so that the orientations of birefringence axes can be equal by providing a rotating mechanism for rotating either one of optical fibers and a microscope having rotatable polarizer provided with a moving mechanism for moving the optical fiber in its longitudinal direction. CONSTITUTION:The polarization plane maintaining optical fiber 11a is irradiated from a light source 11a in the so-called orthogonally intersecting Nicol's prism where the polarized axes of two polarizers 13a and 16 intersect orthogonally, and the optical fiber 1a immensersed in a matching solution 8a is entered between the polarizers 13a and 16, whereby the birefringence axes can be observed. A microscope 15 is shifted by the moving mechanism 17, whereby the birefringence axes of the polarization plane maintaining optical fiber 1b can be observed. The rotation of a motor 6 can rotate the polarization plane maintaining optical fiber 1a with the aid of the rotating mechanism 5 so that the birefringence axes of two polarization plane maintaining optical fibers 1a and 1b can be equal, after which the cut facets of said fibers 1a and 1b are fused and connected by discharging an electric charge between electrodes 2a and 2b so that the birefringence axes can be equal.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To produce a semiconductor laser with an optical fiber without using a special assembling device by adjusting and fixing a ferrule of an optical fiber assembly inserted into the central hole of a holder by means of plural pieces of screws directed to the central direction in such a manner that the center at the end part of the optical fiber aligns to the beam waist of laser light. CONSTITUTION:This laser device has the holder 6 which supports a semiconductor laser 1 and releases the focused laser light in the optical axis direction and the optical fiber assembly consisting of the optical fiber 8 and the ferrule 9 holding the fiber. The device is constituted by adjusting and fixing the ferrule of the optical fiber assembly inserted into the central hole of the holder 6 by means of plural pieces of the screws 7 directed toward the central direction in such a manner that the center at the end of the optical fiber 8 aligns to the beam waist of the laser light. The semiconductor laser device with the optical fiber which can be produced without using techniques such as welding is thus obtd. by the simple constitution to allow the easy alignment of the optical axis.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain the device which can detect a movement of an object in a remote place by radiating a laser light to an object through a coupling optical system and recoupling its reflected light to the original semiconductor laser to utilize a self-coupling effect of a semiconductor laser. CONSTITUTION:On an object whose displacement is to be detected, a displacement part (slit plate) 5 having a surface pattern formed by a difference of a reflection factor is provided. With respect to this displacement part 5, a laser light emitted from a semiconductor laser 1 is transmitted by an optical fiber 3 and radiated, and also, its reflected light is made reincident on the original semiconductor laser 1 through the same optical fiber 3. Subsequently, by a characteristic variation detecting means (photodetector) 2, a variation of an operation characteristic of the semiconductor laser 1 caused by a variation of the return light quantity due to a displacement of the displacement part 5 is detected, and based on its result, a displacement of the displacement part 5 is detected.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To enable the formation of a glass film of uniform thickness by allowing the base for depositing a glass film thereon to get near or away to the oxyhydrogen flame at the top of the burner, as it is rotating. CONSTITUTION:Base plates 2 for a glass film to be deposited are arranged on the surface periphery of the turn table 3 rotating at a constant speed and glass fine particles are blown from the deposition nozzle 7 on the top surfaces of the bases 2 to form a glass film on each base plate. At this time, the system is provided with a transferring unit (consisting of, e.g., a control motor 16, screw mechanism 15, moving bed 14, and shaft 20) which can allow the turn table 3 as well as the base plates 2 on the turn table 3 to get near or away to the deposition nozzle 7.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To simplify the measuring procedure by fixing an emitting end of an optical fiber to be measured so that two orthogonal polarization modes which are propagated in the optical fiber to be measured are contained simultaneously and roughly uniformly in two optical paths of two luminous flux interferometers. CONSTITUTION:A incident light from a light source LS is made incident uniformly on two main axes of an optical fiber to be measured F, two orthogonal polarization modes are excited uniformly, and an emitted light from the fiber F is separated on each plane of polarization to two optical paths by a polarization separating element P. In such a state, light of one optical path pulse 1 transmits through a half mirror HM and reflected by a movable mirror Mv, reaches the mirror FM and reflected, and made incident on a photodetector PD. Also, light of the other optical path 2 is reflected by a fixed mirror M, a plane of polarization is rotated by 90 deg. by a 1/2 wavelength plate lambda/2, and goes to the same plane of polarization as the light of the path 1, and the light transmits through the mirror FM, passes through the same optical path as the path 1, and made incident on the detector PD. Accordingly, by giving an optical path length difference of two optical paths by varying a position of the movable mirror Mv, a group delay difference between two orthogonal polarization modes which are emitted from the fiber F can be derived.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To increase a vapor deposition speed with a low-output laser beam and to form a hard amorphous carbon film by connecting a cathode power source to a vacuum chamber, anode and a material for vapor deposition. CONSTITUTION:The material 3 for vapor deposition connected to the cathode power source 2 is disposed in the vacuum chamber 1. The quantity of evaporat ing particles increases sharply when the voltage of the cathode power source 2 is increased to the certain threshold value. A discharge current is thereafter adjusted by the cathode power source 2 to adjust the quantity of the evaporating particles to be produced. The evaporating particles jump out toward a sample substrate 4 and deposit by vapor deposition on the substrate 4. Graphite is used as the material 3 for vapor deposition and is evaporated by the irradiation with the laser beam 7 and electric discharge and is deposited by evaporation on the substrate 4 to which a negative voltage is impressed by the cathode power source 12 in the case of formation of the hard carbon film. The vapor deposition surface of the substrate 4 is irradiated with the ions contg. hydrogen by an ion gun 13 at this time.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To perform a CO2 laser which has a small size and does not need a forced cooling by providing a waveguide formed of a clad layer in a quartz glass body. CONSTITUTION:A waveguide 5 formed with a tubular air gap formed in a quartz glass body 1 and a clad layer 4 formed on the inner peripheral wall of the air gap, Brewster's windows 6, 7 and resonance mirrors 8, 9 so buried in the body 1 as to seal the waveguide 5 and to cross the waveguide 5, and a pair of electrodes 10, 11 provided to extend from the waveguide 5 out of the body 1 are provided. CO2 gas is sealed in the waveguide 5. That is, the waveguide 5 is provided in a quartz glass body instead of a discharging glass tube, and the gas is sealed in the waveguide 5. Thus, a miniature CO2 laser having, for example, several cm long is performed, and since it has a small size, forced cooling with water is not required, but a heat sink fin may be sufficiently used.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain a desired branching ratio by projecting a CO2 laser on the clads positioned between the cores of tapered parts and removing part thereof in such a manner that the branching ratio of a coupler attains a prescribed value. CONSTITUTION:After the laser light emitted form a CO2 laser device 8 is curved downward by a mirror 9, the laser light is condensed by a lens 10 and is projected on the clads 5 positioned between the cores 3 and 4 of the tapered parts 7. Since the CO2 laser light has large absorption in SiO2 glass, the laser light irradiated part of the clads 5 consisting of the SiO2 glass are instantaneously evaporated and removed. The coupling from the cores 3 to the cores 4 is mainly executed in a coupling part 6 at this time, but part of the coupling takes place in the tapered parts 7 as well and, therefore, the coupling constant is changed by partly removing the clads 5 between the cores of the tapered parts. The branching ratio (PC:PT) of the coupler is thus adjusted by changing the amt. of the clads 5 to be removed.
