An arrangement (20) for coupling light into a plate-like guide (25) having two surfaces (23, 24) on opposite sides of the light guide comprises an in-coupling diffraction grating (21) for diffracting an external light beam (26) incident on said in-coupling diffraction grating into the light guide in a direction enabling the in-coupled light beam to propagate within the light guide via total internal reflections at the light guide surfaces (23, 24). According to the present invention, the arrangement further comprises a deflection member (22) arranged to deflect the beam (27) initially diffracted by the in-coupling diffraction grating (21), before it hits the in-coupling diffraction grating again, out of the path determined by the in-coupling diffraction grating in order to reduce out-coupling of the already in-coupled light through the in-coupling diffraction grating.

In an electrostatically controlled deflection apparatus, such as a MEMS array having cavities formed around electrodes and which is mounted directly on a dielectric or controllably resistive substrate in which are embedded electrostatic actuation electrodes disposed in alignment with the individual MEMS elements, a mechanism is provided to mitigate the effects of uncontrolled dielectric surface potentials between the MEMS elements and the electrostatic actuation electrodes, the mechanism being raised electrodes relative to the dielectric or controllably resistive surface of the substrate. The aspect ratio of the gaps between elements (element height to element separation ratio) is at least 0.1 and preferably at least 0.5 and preferably between 0.75 and 2.0 with a typical choice of about 1.0, assuming a surface fill factor of 50% or greater. Higher aspect ratios at these fill factors are believed not to provide more than marginal improvement.

A charged-particle beam instrument is offered which can cancel out deflection aberrations arising from a first deflector or oblique incidence on the surface of a workpiece without (i) increasing the electrode length, (ii) reducing the inside diameter of the electrode, or (iii) increasing the deflection voltage too much. The instrument has an electron source for producing an electron beam, a demagnifying lens for condensing the beam, an objective lens for focusing the condensed beam onto the surface of the workpiece, the first deflector located behind the demagnifying lens, and a second deflector located ahead of the demagnifying lens. The first deflector determines the beam position on the surface of the workpiece. The second deflector cancels out deflection aberrations arising from the first deflector.

A device for generating a massage stream in a sanitary tub has an accommodation device that can be attached to an opening in the tub body of the sanitary tub, for accommodating an electric motor having a drive shaft, a propeller having a hub attached to the drive shaft and vanes arranged radially about the hub. There is a rosette arranged on the accommodation device, positioned within the sanitary tub, having edge-side inflow openings, as well as a central outlet opening.
