Semiconductor lighting device with reflective remote wavelength conversion

A semiconductor lighting device includes at least one semiconductor light emitter and at least one wavelength converting element, physically separated from the light emitter. At least one wavelength converting element has a reflective member underneath it, so that both primary light and converted light from the wavelength converting layer become a forward transferred light preventing from backscattering loss into the light emitter. The reflective member may be a thermal conductive element to effectively remove the heat from the wavelength converting element. Accordingly, the remote wavelength conversion on a reflective surface improves the thermal stability of the wavelength conversion material and prevents backscattering loss to produce a higher radiance result from the device.

Photoelectric ion source photocathode regeneration system

An explosive detection system based on an ion mobility spectrometer detects the presence of trace molecules in air. Such instruments require an ion source to ionize the trace molecules. An ion source that does not require a radioactive source to operate can use the photoelectric effect to produce electrons. Such a photoelectric ion source will gradually be contaminated and lose its photoelectron emission properties when operated in the air. The photocathode of the ion source can be automatically regenerated by a heater in thermal communication with the photocathode. The heater may be activated when the photoelectron emission falls below a predetermined value ro may run or cycle continuously.

Image encoding apparatus, image decoding apparatus, image encoding method, image decoding method, image encoding program recording medium and image decoding program recording medium

It is an object to encode an image signal or a shape signal more efficiently than the prior art. As a means to accomplish the object, the change pixel detector 2 receives the input signal 1 as an input signal and detects the pixel which changes the two-valued pixel value. Further, the change pixel predictor 4 also reads out the reference image stored in the memory 3, and predicts the change pixel of the particular input signal. The difference value calculator 5 subtracts the output of the change pixel predictor 4 from the output of the change pixel detector 2. The difference value rounder 7 compares the tolerance value e and the prediction error D, and outputs x which requires the minimum bit number for being encoded in the value D-e<=x<=D+e. The output of the difference value rounder 7 is encoded by the decoder 8 to become the encoded signal 9. Also, the output of the difference value rounder 7 is added in the difference value adder 11 to the predicted pixel 4 of the predicted pixel predictor 4, whereby the change pixel is calculated, and in the change pixel decoder 10, the respective pixels from the already decoded pixel indicated by the change pixel predictor 4 to the change pixel is decoded to be stored in the memory 3.

Image processing apparatus

The invention is intended to reduce overall image degradation when frame interpolation is performed by means of an adaptive image compression technique. A compression unit which adaptively compresses input image data, determines an error rate, i.e., a quantity of data loss, depending on input image data. A compression rate is set, depending on the determined error rate (or the quantity of data loss). For an image that is likely to be degraded by compression because of a large error rate determined for it, a process of generating an interpolated image by an interpolated image generating unit is disabled and an original image is used instead of an interpolated frame.
