A short cavity gas discharge laser stabilized by use of a highly reflective output coupler adjustably connected to a support isolated from the longitudinal thermal expansion of the laser enclosure. A flexible seal between the output coupler and the laser enclosure accommodates positional adjustment of the output coupler relative to the mirror to optimize performance. In one embodiment, the laser gas is contained by the enclosure and is in contact with the electrodes which divide the interior of the enclosure into two portions that provide gas ballast for the laser. In another embodiment a pair of electrodes are located adjacent to and outside of a discharge tube made of dielectric material. The laser discharge occurs in the discharge tube and the electrodes are not in physical contact with the discharge. Gas ballast is optionally provided through at least one reservoir in fluid communication with the discharge tube.

This disclosure describes a user interface (UI) conceptual model and a data model for quickly and easily developing and managing a GUI. The present methods and systems described herein provide for defining one or more UI elements in the UI conceptual model. The one or more UI elements may further reference one or more model objects in the data model. The one or more model objects may include one or more tasks, which may each be mapped to one or more commands for performing each task, or one or more data items, which may each be mapped to rules or conditions for transforming data. According to embodiments, graphics or functionality of a GUI may be easily and efficiently modified by adding, deleting, or modifying UI elements in the UI conceptual model or by adding, deleting, or modifying referenced model objects in the data model, thereby reducing management and development costs.

An optical waveguide and method for guiding a laser beam through a channel member having a fluid medium disposed therein. A refractive index gradient is created in the fluid medium which causes the fluid medium to guide the laser beam through the channel member. The refractive index gradient results when a temperature index gradient is created in the fluid medium by heating the channel member wall. The channel member can be externally heated using a separate heating source or the channel member can be heated from the inside by the laser beam itself. A fluid pump is used to create a fluid flow in the fluid medium in order to maintain the temperature and refractive index gradients in the fluid medium.

A laser scanner having first and second scanning mirrors and a correction circuit that removes distortions caused by interaction between the scanning mirrors. Preferably, the first scanner mirror is an off-axis mirror that is positioned to produce a single, substantially invariant pupil on the second scanning mirror. Preferably the scanner uses a reflective beam expander to magnify an input laser beam received from a laser source. Preferably, the reflective beam expander is implemented using two spherical mirrors positioned to form the input laser beam into a Z-folded beam path. The folded beam path increases the distance between the laser source and the focusing lens, which results in a clear focused spot and does so using spherical mirrors which are much less expensive than the infrared lenses used in the prior art. The reflective beam expander is also wavelength insensitive. In one embodiment, the correction circuit employs analog elements to implement a quadratic approximation of the geometric distortions caused by interaction of the scanning axes.

A laser transponder and method for disabling a laser-based speed monitor of the type that transmits a monitor laser beam at a moving motor vehicle. The monitor laser beam transmitted by the speed monitor is detected when it arrives at the motor vehicle. In response to detecting the monitor laser beam, a warning is output to the motor vehicle driver and a jamming laser beam is transmitted toward the speed monitor. The jamming laser beam includes a plurality of pulses separated from each other by a time period that is less than or equal to an amount of time needed for the monitor laser beam to travel from the speed monitor to the motor vehicle and back to the speed monitor. The jamming laser beam disables the speed monitor for a time period sufficient to allow the motor vehicle driver to reduce the speed of the motor vehicle.

A system for selectively rendering highlights in a working document. The system includes a user interface, a memory for storing executable program code, and one or more electronic processors. The electronic processors are functionally coupled to the memory and the user interface. The electronic processors are configured to receive a first highlight operation at a highlight manager associated with a first highlight via the user interface. The electronic processors are further configured to transmit the received first highlight operation to a highlight actor, update a document object model associated with the working document based on the received first highlight operation, and render the first highlight on the working document using a first color based on the received first highlight operation.
