The iris or waveguide segment is arranged in a generically eccentric position with respect to the cavity and in particular to a main axis of the cavity.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed January 29, 1997 and granted June 13, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended January 29, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by January 29, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
