Abstract: In order to reduce the exposure of a detector surface 180 of a photo-multiplier 160 to stray charged particles, an off-axis structure is interposed between the resonant structure and the detector surface of the photo-multiplier. By providing the off-axis structure with at least one reflective surface, photons are reflected toward the detector surface of the photo-multiplier while at the same time absorbing stray charged particles. Stray particles may be absorbed by the reflective surface or by any other part of the off-axis structure. The off-axis structure may additionally be provided with an electrical bias and/or an absorbing coating for absorbing stray charged particles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and system of array imaging that extends or maximizes the longevity of the sensor array by minimizing the effects of photobleaching. The imaging system has a light source, a variable exposure aperture, and a variable filter system. The system extends the longevity of sensors by (1) using the variable exposure aperture to selectively expose sections of the sensor array containing representative numbers of each type of sensor, and/or (2) using the variable filter system to control the intensity of the excitation light, providing only the intensity required to induce the appropriate excitation and increasing that intensity over time as necessary to counteract the effects of photobleaching.

Abstract: An anti-glare eye protection apparatus includes an anti-glare eye protection plate, an optical detector, an electromagnetic wave sensor, an electromagnetic wave detector, a user interface, a main controller, and a light transmittance controller. The electromagnetic wave sensor senses an electromagnetic wave generated by a welding or cutting torch using at least two coils. The electromagnetic wave detector compares a signal received through the electromagnetic wave sensor with a reference value. The user interface includes a display for selecting or displaying one of the optical and electromagnetic wave detectors. The main controller applies an electromagnetic wave detector activation signal to the electromagnetic wave detector as the optical detector starts optical detection and monitors changes in a received electromagnetic wave signal based on output of the electromagnetic wave detector. The light transmittance controller controls change in light transmittance of the eye protection plate according to a signal output from the main controller.

Abstract: An infrared sensor has a groove formed at a peripheral portion of an optical filter in a region opposed to a circumferential region of an opening of a package so as to be continuously located in the peripheral portion of the optical filter. The optical filter has a resistance of about 1 MΩ/cm or less. The package is mainly composed of a metal material. A conductive adhesive is used as an adhesive for joining the optical filter to the package. In a case where the optical filter has a filter body and a thin film made of an insulating material and provided on a surface of the filter body, the groove is formed to have a depth extending from the surface provided with the thin film made of the insulating material to the filter body.
