| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 4731881 | Narrow spectral bandwidth, UV solar blind detector Detection of 253.7 nm radiation in the solar blind UV spectrum is enhanced y using an energy wavelength shifter with a photomultiplier tube which senses fluorescent emissions. A ruby block wavelength shifter has a coating that passes energy including the 2... | 03/15/1988 |
| 4721836 | Apparatus for transient annealing of semiconductor samples in a controlled ambient An improved apparatus for annealing an ion-implanted semiconductor sample duces the deleterious side effects otherwise associated with the process. A semiconductor sample, fabricated, for example, from indium phosphide or gallium arsenide, is set upon the... | 01/26/1988 |
| 4592004 | Electrooptical matrix multiplication using the twos complement arithmetic for improved accuracy The improved electrooptic signal processing relies upon matrix-matrix multiplication using twos complement arithmetic. A source of pulse collimated light illuminates two two-dimension spatial light modulators that operate in a reflective mode through a po... | 05/27/1986 |
| 4533333 | Helicopter extractable cold weather/water liferaft An inflatable liferaft improves disaster victims' chances of survival, pacularly in cold waters. Three inflatable ribs support a layered canopy from the sides of the raft to assure protection from the elements. A highly reflective coating or an equivalen... | 08/06/1985 |
| 4533215 | Real-time ultra-high resolution image projection display using laser-addressed liquid crystal light valve A more clearly defined image is projected onto a distant screen in real-time at video rates to allow for collective analysis of rapidly changing updated data. A laser has its coherent beam modulated in accordance with the images to be viewed. The modulate... | 08/06/1985 |
| 4514834 | Expendable underwater acoustic projector An expendable sound source provides a cost effective projection of acoustic nergies in the ocean. A tubular housing contains a d.c. motor that locates its shaft coaxial with the housing. Cylindrically-shaped camming blocks engage spurs in a pair of rigid p... | 04/30/1985 |
| 4291984 | Optical amplification for the fiber interferometer gyro An improvement for a fiber interferometer gyro provides for greater rotation rate sensitivity. The gyro has a single mode fiber coiled about an identical area a great number of times. A single external laser sends pulses of energy which are split and pass... | 09/29/1981 |
