US Patent:
20110122912, May 26, 2011
Filed:
Feb 25, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/712758
Inventors:
Seldon D. Benjamin - Painted Post NY, US

International Classification:
H01S 5/183
H01S 5/50
US Classification:
372 50124, 372 5022
Abstract:
Optical transmitters for radio over fiber systems are disclosed. More particularly, the optical transmitters include optically-injection-locked vertical cavity surface-emitting laser devices (OIL VCSELS). The transmitters include a master laser, at least one slave laser injection-locked by the master laser, and an equalizer/filter unit that enables the ratio of the carrier power to the sideband power in the output signal of the transmitter to be varied and optimized independently of the injection ratio of the transmitter.

US Patent:
20110229077, Sep 22, 2011
Filed:
Mar 17, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/050010
Inventors:
Davide Domenico Fortusini - Ithaca NY, US
Micah Colen Isenhour - Lincolnton NC, US
Dennis Michael Knecht - Hickory NC, US
James Philip Luther - Hickory NC, US
International Classification:
G02B 6/32
G02B 6/38
US Classification:
385 33, 385 74
Abstract:
Small-form-factor fiber optic interface devices with an internal lens are disclosed. The fiber optic interface devices have a ferrule with a bore that supports an optical waveguide. The lens is on or adjacent the ferrule front end and is aligned with the bore. A first planar surface is provided on or adjacent the lens. The first planar surface interfaces with a second planar surface of a second fiber optic interface device to form a fiber optic interface assembly having a liquid-displacing interface when the first and second fiber optic interface devices are engaged.

Receptacle Ferrules With Monolithic Lens System And Fiber Optic Connectors Using Same

View page
US Patent:
20120114289, May 10, 2012
Filed:
Oct 24, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/279644
Inventors:
Jeffery Alan DeMeritt - Painted Post NY, US
Davide Domenico Fortusini - Ithaca NY, US
Micah Colen Isenhour - Lincolnton NC, US
Dennis Michael Knecht - Hickory NC, US
James Phillip Luther - Hickory NC, US
International Classification:
G02B 6/36
US Classification:
385 79, 385 78
Abstract:
Receptacle ferrules with at least one monolithic lens system and fiber optic connectors using same are disclosed. Ferrule assemblies formed by mating plug and receptacle ferrules are also disclosed, as are connector assemblies formed by mating plug and receptacle connectors. The fiber optic connectors and connector assemblies are suitable for use with commercial electronic devices and provide either an optical connection, or both electrical and optical connections. The monolithic optical system defines a receptacle optical pathway having a focus at the receptacle ferrule front end. When a plug ferrule having a plug optical pathway is mated with the receptacle ferrule, the plug and receptacle optical pathways are optically coupled at a solid-solid optical pathway interface where light passing therethrough is either divergent or convergent, and where unwanted liquid is substantially expelled.

Optical Connector With Lenses Having Opposing Angled Planar Surfaces

US Patent:
20120177327, Jul 12, 2012
Filed:
Jan 9, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/346210
Inventors:
Jeffery Alan DeMeritt - Painted Post NY, US
Davide Domenico Fortusini - Ithaca NY, US
James Scott Sutherland - Corning NY, US
International Classification:
G02B 6/38
B23P 11/00
US Classification:
385 74, 29428
Abstract:
An optical connector for optically connecting at least one light source to at least one light receiver is disclosed. The optical connector includes first and second connector members respectively having first and second positive-power lens elements with respective first and second planar lens surfaces. The lens elements are arranged in their respective connector members such that when the two connector members are operably mated, the first and second lenses form an optical system where the first and second planar lens surfaces are spaced apart in opposition with a narrow gap in between, and are non-perpendicular to the optical system axis. The lenses may be conventional uniform-refractive-index lenses having a convex surface or may be gradient-index lenses having two planar surfaces. The optical connector is tolerant to contamination that can find its way into the narrow gap.
