Telecommunication structures

The goal for this battery is to be a substitution for the valve-regulated lead-acid battery (VRLA) as a backup power supply of for telecommunication. Usually, the relay machines of the telecommunication structure are located in remote areas. The VRLA with its short life is inconvenient from a maintenance aspect. Avestor s lithium metal polymer battery drastically reduced the load and cost of the maintenance, because the life of their battery is over 10 years and is maintenance free. Further, the feature of the battery is that the condition of the battery itself can be monitored in remote settings.

Account must also be taken of small alternating currents which may be diverted from the sheath of a power supply cable by a bond connected to nearby buried structures. Such currents may be sustained for long periods and if they are diverted to the sheaths of telecommunication cables noise may be induced in the telephone circuits. 

Semiconductor laser diodes are widely used in CD players, DVDs, printers, telecommunication or laser pointers. In the structure, they are similar to LEDs but they have a resonant cavity where laser amplification takes place. A Fabry-Perot cavity is established by polishing the end facets of the junction diode (so that they act as mirrors) and also by roughening the side edges to prevent leakage of light from the sides of the device. This structure is known as a homojunction laser and is a very basic one. Contemporary laser diodes are manufactured as double heterojunction structures. 

Silicon photodiodes exhibit maximum sensitivity at about 800 nm and they can be used in the whole visible range however their sensitivity drops by several times at the blue region. Special structures can be made with enhanced blue sensitivity (so-called blue or UV diodes). Germanium photodiodes are capable to detect radiation from 600 nm up to 1700 nm. In telecommunication applications InGaAs elements are widely used.

These structures were recorded by a vectorial focal spot scanning in a spiral-by-spiral method rather in a raster layer-by-layer mode using a PZT stage. Such spiral structures fabricated in SU-8 have optical spot bands in near-lR [24], telecommunication [25], and 2-5 pm-IR region [26] or can be used as templates for Si infiltration [11]. It is obvious, that direct laser scanning is well suited for defect introduction into 3D PhC, as demonstrated in resin where a missing rod of a logpUe structure resulted in the appearance of a cavity mode in an optical transmission spectriun [27]. 

Barrier layers for Cu metallization in surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices, which are increasingly used in the information technique and telecommunications industry, have been investigated by SIMS depth profiling in comparison to AES (Auger Electron Spectrometry).125 Development trends in SAW devices focus on smaller structures, higher input power or higher frequency. Two Cu metallization systems (of 150 nm thickness) on a LiNb03 substrate with different barrier layers ... 

Chemical degradation can be avoided by using closed structures, which may have protective covers or which may be fully hermetic, as well as by using unreactive metals. Barrier coatings are effective in some cases, and polyethylene—polybutene grease (8) is used in some splicing connectors for telecommunications cable. 

Important and also interesting problems are all around us. There are many examples in health care and medicine, the environment, transportation, telecommunications, and defense. Chemistry has and will continue to have a major impact in these fields. Today s problems are inherently multidisciplinary and a challenge to our current university structure. This challenge must be met by any funding organization.
