The amplitude modulation of the optical transmission through a cholesteric-nematic phase-change film is explained in terms of the oscillation of the helical structure discussed by Parsons and Hayes. This behaviour is seen with both tone-burst and e.w. excitation, and may be important in displays based on the fast-phase-change erect.

The velocity of electrons in n GaAs has been measured for electric fields in the range 20–55 kV/cm by the time-of-flight technique. The velocity was found to decrease slowly wlth increasing electric field, and is 8.09×106 cm/s at 55 kV/cm.

A new procedure is given for the synthesis of voltage transfer functions. It is shown that the well known circuits of Lovering and Brugler can also be derived easily by this method. It is also indicated that a simplification can be obtained in the RC:-RC decomposition method. which is in the proposed procedure.

A technique is described whereby the hydroxyl absorption bands of the new phosphosilicate-core optical-fibre waveguide, which arise from impurities in the cladding, can be largely eliminated. The resulting fibre has ultralow loss over the entire wavelength range 0.4–1.1 μm.

The use of a junction-f.e.t. matched pair, functioning as a self-biased source follower, bootstrapped by the operational amplifier voltage follower it drives, facilitates the design of an a.c.-coupled oscilloscope probe with maximised input impedance. Consequently, a lower-cutoff frequency of less than 3 Hz is feasible with input coupling components that are not incompatible with current i.c. design practice.

A ring structure made of 8 bit random-access memory (r.a.m.) elements is described. The r.a.m.s. are used as variable-function logic devices. Several results are presented relating the stored functions to the overall system function. These include the detection of unique, isolated ‘1’ bits (uniqueness) and unique strings of ‘1’ bits (connectedness) in a binary vector.

The implementation of a fast Hadamard transform that operates in the ring of p elements is described with particular applications in an adaptive sequency-division multiplexer. Maximum hardware efficiency is obtained if p is of the form 2r − 1 for any r, and the data to be multiplexed are codcd in 1s-complement arithmetic. The advantage of transforming in a finite ring is that no extra bits are required to store the data as for real-number transforms.

An analysis is presented that shows how the Volterra kernels of a continuous single-valued nonlinear process may be identified from measured harmonic frequency-response data. The analysis facilitates the systematic formulation of identification equations for nonlinearities, which can be approximated by power series, without restricting the order of the approximation.

A multilayer heterojunction device has been manufactured and used for efficient anti-Stokes light conversion. The device consists of six layers: p GaAs, n GaAs, n GaxAl1−xAs, p GayAl1−yAs, p GaxAl1−xAs and p GaAs, essentially forming a GaAs photodiode coupled with a GaAlAs l.e.d. Avalanche multiplication of photoexcited carriers is used to increase the l.e.d. driving current.

A class of pseudocyclic multilevel single-error-correcting code is described, and an example of a 5-level code is given. Some of these codes have parameters. such as block length, number of parity-check digits etc., which are unrealisable with strictly cyclic codes. Pseudocyclic codes share the mathematical structure of cyclic codes, and thus are relatively simple to implement in practical form
