By periodically moving one of the end mirrors of a Ti:sapphire laser using a shaker, we have been able to start and maintain self-mode-locking of the laser. The resulting laser is stable over a long period with low-amplitude noise (3.3%) and low random timing jitter (4.8 ps). In addition, there is a deterministic timing variation on the order of subnanoseconds, caused by the moving mirror, which can be reduced by employing a feedback system. Pulses as short as 43 fs have been obtained.
This paper presents a new optical engine design for improving the market competitiveness of LCOS projection television; new illumination optics design, projection lens design and LMS's kernel to reduce the size of the cabinet. Compared with the traditional optical engine, we can get higher contrast ratios; from 700 to 1000 and brightness from 300 to 600 lumens can be achieved The TV cabinet depth is much thinner as well.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
