A resistive electromagnet assembly comprises a pair of coils with a gap defined between the coils. The resistive electromagnet assembly is configured to generate a field having a magnetic flux density of at least about 4 Tesla and at a sweep rate to complete a hysteresis loop in less than about 1 minute. A support assembly is configured to support a sample of magnetic material within the gap. An optics module is configured to expose a test region of the magnetic material sample to an optical beam probe while the test region is subjected to the field and to receive a reflected beam from the test region. A processor is coupled to the optics module and configured to measure one or more properties of the magnetic material using the received reflected beam. | ||||||
122 | Method and apparatus for reading a clock track with a magneto-optical clock head using the transverse Kerr effect | US09430614 | 1999-10-29 | US06751044B1 | 2004-06-15 | Steven W. Meeks; Richard D. LeSage; David S. McMurtrey; Peter R. Svendsen; W. Craig Tomalty |
A magneto-optical clock head is disclosed. The magneto-optical clock head allows a longitudinally recorded clock track to be read from a disk surface from a position outside of a head-disk assembly (HDA). The clock track has sections of alternating magnetization which define transitions. Importantly, the magneto-optical clock head is used to sense the transitions using the transverse Kerr effect, as opposed to the longitudinal Kerr effect as used in one prior technique. In one embodiment, the magneto-optical clock head includes a light source for generating a p-polarized beam which is aligned in such a manner that it strikes the clock track. A reflected beam is then produced which has an intensity that varies based upon the direction of the magnetization of the sections of alternating magnetization of the clock track due to the transverse Kerr effect. A detector is provided to detect the intensity variations in the reflected beam and to ultimately generate a clock signal which is provided to transducers to allow them to appropriately write servo information onto their respective disk surfaces. A method for optically reading a clock signal stored within a clock track which is written onto a disk surface that is located within a head disk assembly of a disk drive is also provided. | ||||||

A Brillouin fiber optic gyroscope having a feedback system which monitors the difference between counterpropagating Brillouin intensities and utilizes this difference in the form of a correction signal to control one of the circulating pump intensities so as to equalize the circulating pump intensities. The Brillouin fiber optic gyroscope further includes a second feedback system which detects electrical signals proportional to the phase-modulated, counterpropagating intensities in the gyroscope, and utilizes a combination of the electrical signals as an error signal to stabilize the resonant cavity at a length substantially equal to a length midway between the resonant lengths of the counterpropagating pump signals. The Brillouin fiber optic gyroscope of the present invention also provides a dynamic range of the gyroscope rotation rate that is twice the dynamic range of existing gyroscopes. | ||||||
126 | Synchronous optical regenerator using intensity modulation and phase modulation by the crossed kerr effect | US09810251 | 2001-03-19 | US07050722B2 | 2006-05-23 | Olivier Leclerc; Emmanuel Desurvire |
A synchronous optical regenerator applies intensity modulation and phase modulation. The phase modulation is effected after the intensity modulation by the crossed Kerr effect in a Kerr fiber. The clock used for the phase modulation is obtained by injecting a continuous wavelength into the intensity modulator. The regenerator therefore includes a multiplexer coupling continuous light with the signals transmitted, an intensity modulator modulating the signals transmitted and the continuous light, and a Kerr fiber phase modulating the transmitted signals by crossed phase modulation with the intensity-modulated continuous light. Applications include wavelength division multiplex transmission systems. | ||||||
127 | Apparatus and method for measuring instantaneous power using a magneto-optic Kerr effect sensor | US948431 | 1997-10-10 | US5994898A | 1999-11-30 | Charles A. DiMarzio; Steven A. Oliver; Stephen W. McKnight |
An apparatus and method for measuring instantaneous power using a magneto-optic Kerr effect sensor are disclosed. The apparatus comprises and the method requires a magneto-optic Kerr effect magnetic field sensing element and an optical system including a light source, first and second polarizers, and a photoconductive detector. In a preferred embodiment, the sensing element and the optical system are arranged to sense the intensity of a magnetic field generated by current passing through a high voltage power line so as to provide an optical signal that is representative of the current to the photoconductive detector. A voltage signal is tapped off of the high voltage power line to provide a bias signal to the photoconductive detector. The photoconductive detector thereby effectively multiplies the optical current signal with the voltage signal so as to provide a photoconductive detector current signal that is proportional to instantaneous power passing through the high voltage power line. | ||||||

L'invention concerne une régénérateur optique synchrone, qui assure une modulation d'intensité et une modulation de phase. Selon l'invention, la modulation de phase est effectuée après la modulation d'intensité, par effet Kerr croisé dans une fibre Kerr.

Le régénérateur comprend donc un multiplexeur (2) couplant avec les signaux transmis une lumière continue, un modulateur d'intensité (6) modulant les signaux transmis et la lumière continue et une fibre Kerr (10) modulant en phase les signaux transmis par modulation de phase croisée avec la lumière continue modulée en intensité. L'invention s'applique notamment aux systèmes de transmission à multiplexage en longueur d'onde. |
