Multi-domain, phase-compensated, differential-coherence detection of photonic signals for interferometric processes and devices may be manufactured holographically and developed in situ or with an automatic registration between holograms and photonic sources in a single frame. Photonic or electronic post processing may include outputs from a cycling or rotation between differently phased complementary outputs of constructive and destructive interference. A hyper-selective, direct-conversion, expanded-bandpass filter may rely on an expanded bandpass for ease of filtering, with no dead zones for zero beat frequency cases. A hyper-heterodyning, expanded bandpass system may also provide improved filtering and signal-to-noise ratios. An ultra-high-resolution, broadband spectrum analyzer may operate in multiple domains, including complex &ldquo;fingerprints&rdquo; of phase, frequency, and other parameters. The associated technologies of the invention may be used to produce extreme precision in multi-domain locking of sophisticated waveforms varying in several domains. Phase-masking techniques may provide phased arrays of complementary outputs over a broad band, such as may be implemented in a projected phase-mask, multiple phase interferometer. Topographic holographic imaging and projection techniques are enabled at very fine resolutions, while minimizing required information for systems such as holographic television. Phase-stabilization, modulation, compensation and the like are enabled by devices and methods in accordance with the invention, and may be servo-controlled.

Servo-stabilized-phase, differential coherence detector

A method and apparatus are provided for modulating a coherent light source with a digital) signal. The method includes the steps of splitting the digital signal into a first and a second copy and mixing the first copy with a clock signal to provide a first modulation component. The method further includes the steps of inverting the second copy and delaying the clock signal by one-hundred eighty degrees. The method also includes the steps of mixing the inverted second copy with the delayed clock signal to provide a second modulation component and summing the first and second modulation components.

A gas discharge laser with fast response gas temperature control to maintain laser gas temperature within desired limits during burst mode operation. Preferred embodiments include a passive temperature stabilizer having fins with surface areas exposed to flowing laser gas at least equal to the surface area of the cooling fins of a laser gas heat exchanger. Preferred embodiments utilize heating elements and coolant flow control to regulate laser gas temperatures using processors programmed to anticipate idle periods.

Gas discharge laser with gas temperature control

An apparatus and method are provided for use in tracing a cable; the apparatus and method allows a cable to be identified at any point along its length. The apparatus includes a transmitter for applying a unique waveform to a cable of interest, a line terminator for forming a cable loop through which current can flow, and a detector which is capable of detecting both voltage (electric field) and current (magnetic field). The unique waveform induces both a magnetic and an electric field in specifically identifiable patterns.
