An optical device (300) comprises a multilayer structure, formed by wafer bonding, incorporating in sequence a silicon dioxide layer (304), a buried silicide layer (306), a contact layer (308) and a silicon surface layer (310). The surface layer (310) is selectively etched to form an exposed rib (312). An upper surface of the rib (312) is doped to form an elongate electrode (314) therealong. The surface layer (310) is selectively etched to the contact layer (308) in regions remote from the rib (312) to form via channels (316a, 316b) for making electrical connection to the contact layer (308). The rib (312) forms a waveguide along which radiation propagates.

The regulator may comprise a PMOS transistor and an NMOS transistor whose drains are coupled to a common output node and whose sources are coupled to high and low supply voltages, respectively, configured to develop a current in an inductor and generate an output voltage.

Thus, when a non-zero external force is applied to the inerter mechanism to generate relative horizontal displacement between the screw cap and the connection body, the screw cap brings the screw to rotate, which further brings the inertia body to rotate, thereby achieving the inerter features.

The method provides a new fluid simulation technique that significantly reduces the non-physical dissipation of velocity using particles and derivative information. In solving the conventional Navier-Stokes equations, the method replace the advection part with a particle simulation. When swapping between the grid-based and particle-based simulators, the physical quantities such as the level set and velocity must be converted. A novel dissipation-suppressing conversion procedure that utilizes the derivative information stored in the particles as well as in the grid points is developed. Through several experiments, the proposed technique can reproduce the detailed movements of high-Reynolds-number fluids, such as droplets / bubbles, thin water sheets, and whirlpools. The increased accuracy in the advection, which forms the basis of the proposed technique, can also be used to produce better results in larger scale fluid simulations.

A battery charger controller is coupled to DC output terminals of an AC-DC (or DC-DC) adapter containing an AC-DC (or DC-DC) converter. A controlled current flow path between input and output terminals of the battery charger controller circuit is controlled to provide a substantially constant current to charge the battery to a nominal battery voltage.

Thereafter, the controlled current flow path gradually reduces charging current as the battery voltage remains at its nominal battery voltage until the charge is complete or otherwise terminated.
