A five-channel grating spectrometer for use in millimeter wave band (25100GHz) is described with its design theory of optical path, and measured results of insertion loss and resolving power.     

Exact solution of a vertex model ind dimensions

We consider a class of vertex models describing directed lines on a lattice in arbitraryd dimensions, and solve the model exactly for the Cartesian lattice and in the case that each loop of lines carries a fugacity - 1. Our analysis, which can be carried out for arbitrary lattices, is based on an equivalence of the vertex model with a dimer problem. The dimer problem is, in turn, solved using the method of Pfaffians. It is found that the system is frozen below a critical temperatureT _cwith the critical exponent = (3 –d)/2.
