The three mirrors are simultaneously moved with the same amplitude which is less than or equal to the intermediate mode of the resonator, such that each of the resonators passes through a length where maximum amplification is provided. Intensity of waves passing through each of the three resonators is measured for each triplet of positions occupied by the mirrors. The length of each of the resonators, where maximum intensity is provided, is determined based on the three triplets. The final positions of the mirrors where maximum intensity in the three resonators is provided are determined.

Method of changing path of dangerous space body (versions)

Method of changing path of dangerous space body (versions)

Invention relates to protection of the Earth against collision with dangerous space body (DSB). Proposed method comprises detecting DSB and defining its characteristics to place carrier rocket in orbit of rendezvous therewith. Carrier rocket comprises delivery vehicle assembly with command module and set of hitting modules with self-guidance system. In compliance with the first version, carrier rocket equipped with gamma-laser is placed in said orbit. In approach to DSB said hitting modules are released and positioned in space in definite intervals. Before first hitting module meets the DSB high-energy gamma-laser beam is guided thereto to create high-temperature channel. Hitting modules are placed in turns into said channel. In said channel explosive of hitting module is blasted. Hitting modules trajectories and flight control are corrected with allowance for the results of previous attacks delivered to DSB and variations in current situation. In compliance with another version, spacecraft with gamma-laser is included in carrier rocket set to be delivered to maximum possible distance to DSB for hitting from minimum distance.

Method of synchronising line of laser diodes

Method of synchronising line of laser diodes

Resonance lattice waveguide mirror (3) is placed on a line of laser diodes (1) with a collimating cylindrical lens at an angle to the exit end of a line of laser diodes (1) with a diffraction grating on one or more media boundary surfaces of the resonance lattice waveguide mirror (3) which is in form of a corrugation. The inclination angle, parameters of the resonance lattice waveguide mirror (3) and the diffraction grating are selected such that when radiation of the line of laser diodes (1) with diffraction order of +1 or -1 falls on the resonance lattice waveguide mirror (3), two modes are excited therein, which propagate in opposite directions, upon interaction with the diffraction grating of the resonance lattice waveguide mirror (3) of which they are emitted into the media adjoining said resonance lattice waveguide mirror (3). The resonance lattice waveguide mirror (3) has antireflection properties which prevent spurious generation on Fresnel reflection and provide output of radiation in form of -1 or +1 diffraction order of the radiation of the line of laser diodes (1).

Method of making light-emitting element

Method of making light-emitting element

Diode light-emitting structure is formed on monocrystalline silicon with surface orientation (111) or (100). The active zone of the light-emitting element is nanosized crystallites (nanocrystallites) of semiconductor iron disilicide, which are elastically embedded in monocrystalline epitaxial silicon. Before forming the active zone, the substrate is coated with a layer of undoped silicon for spatial separation thereof from the substrate (buffer layer). Nanocrystallites are formed during epitaxial refilling of nanoislands of semiconductor iron disilicide formed on the buffer layer by solid-phase epitaxy. Use of special operating parameters provides high concentration of nanocrystallites in the active zone. The cycle, which includes forming nanoislands and subsequent aggregation thereof into nanocrystallites, is repeated several times, enabling to form a multilayer active structure.
