Abstract

An atomic beam is quantum-mechanically collimated. The atomic beam is irradiated with a pumping laser beam and a filtering laser beam in this order. The pumping laser beam has a wavelength corresponding to a transition between a ground state and an excited state of atoms in the atomic beam. Irradiation with the pumping laser beam causes atoms to make transition from the ground state to the excited state and further relax from the excited state to a metastable state. The filtering laser beam has a wavelength corresponding to a transition between the ground state and the metastable state. By irradiating the filtering laser beam, atoms in the metastable state having velocity components equal to or smaller than a predetermined velocity component Δv in a traveling direction of the filtering laser beam are caused to make transition to the ground state.

Abstract

This connector 100 includes a housing 101, a plurality of terminals 105, and two additional members 110. The additional members 110 include two lock mechanisms 120 positioned so as to face each other in a second direction. The lock mechanisms 120 include a spring part 121, an extension part 122, a lock part 123, and an operation part 124. The operation part 124 can move between a non-release position and a release position further outside the connector 100 than the non-release position in the second direction positioned when receiving a pressing operation toward the outside of the connector 100 in the second direction. When the operation part 124 moves from the non-release position to the release position, the lock part 123 moving in conjunction with the operation part 124 moves with a movement amount in a second direction larger than the operation part 124. Thus, when the lock mechanism is unlocked using a lock release jig, an elastic member of the lock mechanism can be prevented from buckling.

When the connector is under an attached state where the connector is attached to the cable, the main portion encloses the cable in a perpendicular plane perpendicular to a front-rear direction and is fixed to the cable. The projecting portion extends forward from the main portion and has a stopper. The stopper is located forward of the main portion. The stopper is located outward of the main portion in the perpendicular plane when the connector is under the attached state. When the connector is under the attached state, the barrel encloses the main portion in the perpendicular plane and is fixed to the main portion, and the stopper is located forward of the barrel.

Abstract

An antenna device comprises a case and an antenna element. The antenna element is arranged in the case and radiates a radio wave with a predetermined frequency which has a plane of polarization in parallel to a predetermined plane. The case is formed with a predetermined opening. The predetermined opening has two main openings and a coupling opening. The two main openings are apart from each other in a first direction perpendicular to the predetermined plane. The coupling opening couples the two main openings together in the first direction. The coupling opening has a size smaller than another size of each of the two main openings in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The predetermined opening forms a split ring resonator which resonates at the predetermined frequency and radiates a radio wave corresponding to the radio wave radiated from the antenna element.

Each contact is designed in such a way that one contact part is supported by two spring pieces extending apart from each other in a pitch direction and parallel to each other and whose both ends are joined. The two spring pieces of each contact are extended toward each other so that the two spring pieces of each contact come closer to each other in the pitch direction while maintaining a predetermined pitch and an outer spring gap, thereby increasing the contact pressure of each contact while maintaining the predetermined pitch and the impedance of each contact.

Abstract

A method for controlling supply of power from a power source to a terminal device includes monitoring voltage inputted from the power source, and determining a maximum suppliable power on the basis of an input-output relationship that has been set in advance. Control is executed control so as to supply to the terminal device an output power equal to or lower than the maximum suppliable power. In the input-output relationship, first to N-th input voltage ranges IR1-IRN are set as input voltage ranges in an ascending order, and first to N-th output power values OP1-OPN are set as discrete values respectively corresponding to the first to N-th input voltage ranges in an ascending order. In the monitoring, one of the output power values corresponding to the input voltage range to which an input voltage from the power source belongs is determined as the maximum suppliable power value.

In a plug connector that incorporates an optical connector and a photoelectric conversion module connected with the optical connector, the optical connector attached to an optical cable is accommodated in an end bell and the photoelectric conversion module is accommodated in a barrel inserted into a mating receptacle connector. The barrel and the end bell go in a fitting completion state (locked state) by a Z-axis-direction locking mechanism and a rotation locking mechanism around the Z axis when the end bell is fitted to the barrel and the end bell is rotated about an axial center thereof (Z axis). The end bell can be detached from the barrel when the end bell is rotated in a reverse direction to that in locking while operating the locking member functioning as a rotation lock and releasing the rotation lock.

Abstract

Each contact is designed in such a way that one contact part is supported by two spring pieces extending apart from each other and parallel to each other in a pitch direction and whose both ends are joined. No conductor is designed to exist between the two spring pieces of each contact. No conductor is designed to exist between the two contacts adjacent in the pitch direction. An outer spring gap is narrowed by separating the two spring pieces of each contact away from each other in the pitch direction while maintaining the predetermined pitch and the cross-sectional areas and cross-sectional shapes of the two spring pieces of each contact, thereby reducing the impedance of each contact while maintaining the predetermined pitch and the elasticity of each contact.
