A sensor assembly includes a stainless steel tubular housing. Within the housing is a polyetheretherketone tube and a sensor. An optical fiber joins the sensor to a transmission cable and is fixedly positioned within the tube. A first end of the housing includes a pressure transmission device or bellows and the second end of the housing is crimped about the tube to fixedly position the tube and the sensor within the housing. The sensor assembly is positioned within a channel of a gasket to obtain pressure data from a combustion chamber.

An exemplary optical limiter device () has an optically transmissive substrate () and a layer () on a first surface () of the substrate, the layer having a trimetallic nitride endohedral metallofullerene. The layer can be a thin film of the trimetallic nitride endohedral metallofullerene, a layer material with a cavity containing a solution with the trimetallic nitride endohedral metallofullerene, a sol-gel with a trimetallic nitride endohedral metallofullerene, and a self assembled monolayer with a trimetallic nitride endohedral metallofullerene. The layers of trimetallic nitride endohedral metallofullerenes can be vapor deposited, solution deposited and/or self assembled onto optical components. The third-order nonlinear properties of these films provide desired transmission characteristics.

The telephone handset for the infirm includes a housing, wherein the housing has the appearance of an old-style telephone handset, internal electronics including a microphone, a speaker, wireless communication circuitry, and signal processing circuitry for processing signals received by the wireless communications circuitry to drive the speaker and for processing signals received from the microphone to transmit a signal representative of the received microphone signal wireless to one or more remote audio communication devices. The telephone handset also includes a simplified user interface which includes a predetermined number of keys less than ten, where the keys are programmed to cause the internal electronics to initiate contact with at least one specific remote audio communication device upon actuation. The telephone handset also has a multifunction user interface with at least a full numeric keypad and other keys sufficient to program the keys of the simplified user interface.

An apparatus includes a laser source configured to output laser light at a target frequency, and a measurement unit configured to measure a deviation between an actual frequency outputted by the laser source at a current period of time and the target frequency of the laser source. The apparatus includes a feedback control unit configured to, based on the measured deviation between the actual and target frequencies, control the laser source to maintain a constant frequency of laser output from the laser source so that the frequency of laser light transmitted from the laser source is adjusted to the target frequency. The feedback control unit can control the laser source to maintain a linear rate of change in the frequency of its laser light output, and compensate for characteristics of the measurement unit utilized for frequency measurement. A method is provided for performing the feedback control of the laser source.
