A laser is a maser which operates at optical frequencies. It is a device which produces an intense beam of visible or infrared coherent light by pumping atoms to ever higher energy levels and allowing them to oscillate in an optical resonator until the energy level is high enough that a constant stream of photons is emitted.  4, record 2, English, - laser

Sum Frequency Generation Spectroscopy(SFG) is a technique used to analyze surfaces and interfaces. This spectroscopy method utilizes sum frequency generation, where two light beams mix at a surface and generate an output beam with a frequency equal to the sum of the two input frequencies. From the experiment setup and the output beam, one can deduce the composition, orientation distributions, and some structural information of molecules on a surface. SFG has advantages in its ability to be monolayer surface sensitive, ability to be performed in situ(for example aqueous surfaces and in gases), and not causing much damage to the sample surface.  3, record 4, English, - sum%2Dfrequency%20generation

Scanning of the target surface by the reading beam may be accomplished either during writing or as a later step. As in other vidicon tubes, capacitive discharge of the target to cathode potential in reading automatically erases the target and leaves it prepared for a new image.  1, record 6, English, - sec%20vidicon%20tube

La précision des centrales à inertie conditionne directement celle de la trajectoire du missile. En effet, la phase du vol pendant laquelle on peut guider le missile se limite à la phase propulsée, qui dure de 100 à 200 secondes, alors que la phase balistique (non propulsée), où le missile est soumis à la seule attraction terrestre, dure [...] de 1 000 à 2 000 secondes.

Il existe depuis une dizaine d'années de petits accéléromètres à coût acceptable. Il existe plusieurs grands principes : Muruta produit le Gyrostar, un prisme excité par piézo, utilisant la force de Coriolis qui donne trois vitesses angulaires. [...] Les autres fabricants utilisent des lames ou poutres vibrantes donnant des accélérations perpendiculaires aux plans de vibration. Un barreau vibrant lesté, est excité par un piézo, un deuxième piézo collé sur la face opposée de la lamelle recueille le signal de vibration. En cas d'accélération perpendiculaire au plan de la lame, la sinusoïde reçue est déformée, le mouvement étant accéléré dans le sens du déplacement, freiné dans l'autre. Les signaux excitation et réponse sont combinés dans un soustracteur, une manipulation donne un signal qui pilote un convertisseur à PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). Le rapport cyclique variable donne l'accélération.  3, record 7, French, - acc%C3%A9l%C3%A9rom%C3%A8tre%20%C3%A0%20lame%20vibrante

... The smart antenna consists of an eight-element uniform linear array, eight transceiver trains and the adaptive antenna array processor(AAAP).... The AAAP performs four main tasks :(1) Direction-of-arrival(DOA) estimation from the received input data in the uplink with a high-resolution estimator.(2) A DOa identification classifies the DOAs and decides whether a wavefront(DOA) belongs to a user or to an interferer.(3) A tracker follows each nominal DOA(multipath component) of the user. The tracker does not only include averaging of the DOAs, but also measures the reliability of each multipath.(4) Signal reconstruction and beamforming, where a b beamforming algorithm forms an antenna pattern with a main beam steered into the direction of the strongest reliable user multipath, while simultaneously minimizing the influence of the interfering wavefronts.  2, record 8, English, - adaptive%20antenna%20array%20processor
