Latest Patents

Liu is credited with 1 patent: “Probe of Two-Way Optical Component Network Analyzer.” The invention combines an electrical circulator, an optical transmitter, an optical receiver, and an optical circulator. The electrical circulator routes signals between a network analyzer and the optical devices, separating signals from different sources to help prevent electrical interference. The optical circulator directs signals from the transmitter to an optical element and routes returning signals to the receiver, helping prevent optical interference. The transmitter converts electrical signals into optical signals, while the receiver converts optical signals back into electrical signals.

Career Highlights

The supplied information associates Liu with the National Science Council. His patent describes an approach to managing signal paths in optical component testing, with separate circulators handling electrical and optical signals.

Collaborations

Liu’s listed coworker is Shyh-Lin Tsao. The available information does not specify further details about their collaboration.

Conclusion

Tai-Chi Liu’s patent presents a probe architecture that separates electrical and optical signal paths to reduce interference during two-way optical component analysis.
