Abstract

A device for radially translating radiation in which a right circular cylinder is provided at each end thereof with conical prism faces. The faces are oppositely extending and the device may be severed in the middle and separated to allow access to the central part of the beam. Radiation entering the input end of the device is radially translated such that radiation entering the input end at the perimeter is concentrated toward the output central axis and radiation at the input central axis is dispersed toward the output perimeter. Devices are disclosed for compressing beam energy to enhance drilling techniques, for beam manipulation of optical spatial frequencies in the Fourier plane and for simplification of dark field and color contrast microscopy. Both refracting and reflecting devices are disclosed.

Trapped ion platform with optical input and output

Patent Parazzoli, Lambert Paul; Stick, Daniel L.; DeRose, Christopher T.; ...

In disclosed apparatus, a plurality of optical waveguides monolithically integrated on a surface ion trap substrate deliver light to the trapping sites. Electrical routing traces defined in one or more metallization levels deliver electrical signals to electrodes of the surface electrode ion trap. A plurality of photodetectors are integrated on the substrate and arranged to detect light from respective trapping sites.

Embedding global barrier and collective in torus network with each node combining input from receivers according to class map for output to senders

Patent Chen, Dong; Coteus, Paul W; Eisley, Noel A; ...

Embodiments of the invention provide a method, system and computer program product for embedding a global barrier and global interrupt network in a parallel computer system organized as a torus network. The computer system includes a multitude of nodes. In one embodiment, the method comprises taking inputs from a set of receivers of the nodes, dividing the inputs from the receivers into a plurality of classes, combining the inputs of each of the classes to obtain a result, and sending said result to a set of senders of the nodes. Embodiments of the invention provide a method, system and computermore » « less

Single instruction multiple data page table walk scheduling at input output memory management unit

Patent Basu, Arkaprava; Van Tassell, Eric; Oskin, Mark; ...

A data processing system includes a memory and an input output memory management unit that is connected to the memory. The input output memory management unit is adapted to receive batches of address translation requests. The input output memory management unit has instructions that identify, from among the batches of address translation requests, a later batch having a lower number of memory access requests than an earlier batch, and selectively schedules access to a page table walker for each address translation request of a batch.

Bus based timed input output module

Patent Boyd, Gerald M.; Montoya, Dominic A.; Wickstrom, Gregory L.; ...

Described herein are features related to a bus based timed input output module (TIO) for use in control systems of physical systems, particularly where the physical systems are safety critical systems. When the TIO is powered on, one or more operations are performed by the TIO, wherein the one or more operations, when performed by the TIO: 1) cause the TIO to be non-functional, thereby preventing the TIO from improperly or accidentally activating a Component in communication with the TIO; 2) clears the TIO of previous operations (if any); and 3) facilitates compatibility of the TIO with an arbitrary Component.

Fully differential rail-to-rail output amplifier with inverter-based input pair

Patent Dabrowski, Mieczyslaw M.

A fully differential rail-to-rail-output amplifier includes a differential input inverter pair, folded cascode pair, class AB control pair, and class AB output rail-to-rail pair. A drain associated with the folded cascode pair is operatively coupled to the class AB control pair, and the drain associated with the folded cascode pair is unconnected to the current source associated with the class AB control pair. A method of providing fully differential rail-to-rail-output amplification includes coupling a folded cascode pair operatively to a differential input inverter pair, coupling a drain associated with the folded cascode pair operatively to a class AB control pair,more » « less
