Looks like the gap on the 3.8 shares of JDSU for SDLI is closing. Close to approval on the merger? I'm thinking the same thing. Pat

SDL receives industry achievement award: lfw.pennwellnet.com OPTICS/OPTICAL MATERIALS Distributed Raman amplification offers the opportunity to increase transmission distances by taking advantage of the transmission fiber itself to provide additional gain. The SDL-RL30-1455 Raman fiber laser, developed by SDL (San Jose, CA) and introduced in February 1999, offers this advantage to dense wavelength-division-multiplexing systems. It also offers the advantage that it can be used over a wide wavelength range rather than the fixed wavelength region of the standard optical amplifier. The RL-30 pump system consists of a double-clad fiber laser pumped by an array of laser diodes, followed by a Raman wavelength shifter that provides successive shifts to the emission wavelength. The fiber laser was introduced with both 1455- and 1480-nm wavelengths available. The 1.5 W of output power can be scaled to lower power to enable better overall system reliability.
