US Patent:

53846532, Jan 24, 1995

Filed:

Nov 6, 1992

Appl. No.:

7/972242

Inventors:

David K. Benson - Golden CO
Richard S. Crandall - Boulder CO
Satyendra K. Deb - Boulder CO
Jack L. Stone - Lakewood CO

Assignee:

Midwest Research Institute - Kansas City MO

International Classification:

G02F 1153

US Classification:

359270

Abstract:

A variable transmittance double pane window includes an electrochromic material that has been deposited on one pane of the window in conjunction with an array of photovoltaic cells deposited along an edge of the pane to produce the required electric power necessary to vary the effective transmittance of the window. A battery is placed in a parallel fashion to the array of photovoltaic cells to allow the user the ability to manually override the system when a desired transmittance is desired.

Assignee:

The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC

International Classification:

F16K 4700

US Classification:

251118

Abstract:

A small, light weight, stemless valve for accurately metering constant-voe rates of gas flow. The valve is provided with a filter which protects a small interchangeable orifice from particulate matter, and the housing parts are rotatable relative to each other for controlling gaseous flow through the valve and for preventing flow through the valve.

Midwest Research Institute - Kansas City MO

International Classification:

G11B 724

US Classification:

430 21

Abstract:

A process for preparing a multiple level logic optical memory disks which are erasable upon heating when ion-beam hydrogenation is used for writing informatin on the disk. The process comprises depositing an amorphous film selected from the group consisting of silicon hydride, silicon carbon hydride and silicon nitrogen hydride on a glass substrate using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition at temperatures sufficient to ensure good adhesion and high film quality and an optical bandgap of between aboout 1. 55 and about 2. 0 eV; writing information on these disks by using a laser beam to selectively heat spots of the film to expel hydrogen and change the bandgap and optical absorption of the film; and using a laser beam at a sufficient nm wavelength in order to detect information stored on these disks.

Abstract:

An article to determine a sample condition includes a substrate; a reference optical cavity disposed on the substrate and comprising a reference cavity, the reference optical cavity being configured to support a reference optical resonance and to maintain an axial length of the reference cavity; and a sample optical cavity disposed on the substrate and comprising a sample cavity, the sample optical cavity being configured to support a sample optical resonance and to maintain an axial length of the sample cavity.
