In this paper, a new two-phase space vector RPWM(Random PWM) is proposed. In the proposed RPWM, each of two-phase PWM pulses is located randomly in each switching interval. Based on the space vector modulation technique, the duty ratio of the pulses is calculated. Along with the randomization of the PWM pulses, we can obtain the effects of spread spectra of inverter output voltage, d.c link current and audible switching acoustic noise as in the case of randomly changed switching frequency. To verify the validity of the proposed two-phase RPWM scheme, the experiment based on the C167 micro-controller was executed. The performance of the proposed scheme was compared with traditional PWM schemes experimentally.

The patient was 47-year-old male who had suffered from aphasia and hemiplegia of the right side, but mental state was alert. On physical examination, BP was 130/80 mmHg in the right arm, but not checked in the left arm. The pulses of the left common carotid, brachial, and radial arteries were not palpable. The pulses of the right femoral, popliteal, and dorsalis pedis arteries were weakly palpable. Brain CT Scan revealed cerebral infarction of the left hemisphere. Aortogram showed occlusion of the left common carotid, and the right internal carotid and common iliac arteries. Subclavian steal phenomena were observed in the delayed aortogram. Double extra-anatomic bypasses; Axillo-Axillar bypass and Femora-Femoral bypass, were performed in the local anesthesia at two stages, because of risk of major operation under general anesthesia. Postoperatively, all pulses except for pulse of the left common carotid artery were equally palpable. On discharge, the hemiplegia of the right side was improved and able to walk with assistance.

We introduce a new method of time-division visible light communication (VLC) using LED lamp light for the generation of synchronizing pulses. The LED lamp, driven by an AC 220-V power line, radiates light that has a 120-Hz frequency component. The pulse generator in each VLC system receives the LED lamp light and generates the synchronizing pulses that are required for time-division transmission of multiple VLC channels. The pulse period is subdivided into several time slots for VLC channels. In experiments, 120-Hz synchronizing pulses were generated using LED lamp light, and three VLC channels were transmitted independently without interfering with each other in a condition where the VLC signals overlapped in space. This configuration is useful in constructing multiple wireless sensor networks that are safe and without interference in locations where LED lamps are used for illumination.

Prebreakdown current pulses arising from avalanche growth in SF6 were recorded under static uniform field at pressures up to about 400kpa. At pressures less than 100kpa the current pulses consist of the electron component observed as the fast rise of current, the negative ioncomponent which is superimposed, and the positive ion component comprising the tail of the pulse. The values of positive ion drift velocity were measured from the present pulse data. At pressures in excess of about 100 Kpa the pulse shapes becam distorted such that quantitative analysis was no longer possible, and did not indicate the action of any photosecondary process at the cathode. Breakdown appers to result from the seperate development of single avalanche.

Using tightly focused femtosecond laser pulses, we produce an optical waveguide and optical devices in transparent materials. This technique has the potential to generate not only channel waveguides, but also three-dimensional optical devices. In this paper, an optical splitter and U-grooves, which are used for fiber alignment, are simultaneously fabricated in a fused silica glass using near-IR femtosecond laser pulses. The fiber aligned optical splitter has a low insertion loss, less than 4㏈, including an intrinsic splitting loss of 3㏈ and excess loss due to the passive alignment of a single-mode fiber. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of the femtosecond laser writing technique by fabricating gratings at the surface and inside the silica glass.

We developed a simple and real-time readout autocorrelator for several tens and sub-10fs pulses, based on the two photon absorption phenomena of a commercial GaP photodetector including a transimpedance amplifier. With a suitable gain adjustment, we demonstrated that the interferometric autocorrelation for sub-nJ pulses delivered as a high output voltage as to resolve all fringes in an autocorrelation trace with features of low noise and a low offset voltage. By fitting the measured quadratic power dependence of output voltages, we obtained the quantum efficiency of TPA for the GaP detector comparable with those of a GaAsP diode and an SHG with a thin BBO crystal. The autocorrelator of a TPA based GaP photodetector is highly suitable for sensitively measuring a few cycle pulses with a broad spectral distribution from 600 nm to 1100 nm.

Ultrafast deep-ultraviolet (DUV) pulse generation from the subwavelength aperture of a plasmonic waveguide was investigated. The plasmonic nanofocusing of near-infrared (NIR) pulses was exploited to enhance DUV photoemission of surface third harmonic generation (STHG) at the amorphous $SiO_2$ dielectric. The generated DUV pulses which are successfully made from a nano-aperture using 10 fs NIR pulses have a spectral bandwidth of 13 nm at a carrier wavelength of 266 nm. This method is applicable for tip-based ultrafast UV laser spectroscopy of nanostructures or biomolecules

We generate 10 GHz short pulses from a continuous wave laser at 1.5 um by cascaded intensity and phase modulation, followed by chirp compensation using a single mode fiber. The measured spectral and pulse widths are 0.64 nm and 5.7 ps respectively, resulting in the time-bandwidth product of 0.46.

We generated 9-fs pulses from a Kerr-lens mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser only using commercial optical components. Two sets of prisms pair made of fused silica were used to compensate group delay dispersion inside and outside the laser oscillator respectively, and broadband mirrors were used to obtain a broad spectrum. By comparison between reflectance curves of the broadband mirrors and those of previous ones, broadband mirrors which have high reflectance bandwidth of over 180 nm were found to be essential to produce sub-IO-fs pulses. ulses.

We report the generation of inherently stable, high-speed, nearly transform-limited, optical pulses by chirped pulse compression, in which sinusoidally driven phase modulator generates frequency chirped pulses that are subsequently compressed by a dispersive optical fiber. Experimental results show that $sech^2$ shape pulses with a pulse width of ~14 ps and a time bandwidth product of ~0.34 are successfully generated at 10 GHz repetition rate. In contrast to other methods, such as higher order soliton compression, this approach does not depend on the optical power and thus shows promise for application to low-power lasers.
