International Classification:

C23C 22/06
C23C 22/48
C23C 22/84
C23F 11/00
C09D 5/08

US Classification:

106 1444, 106 1411, 106 1441, 106 1443, 148244

Abstract:

A coating composition comprising an aqueous mixture containing inorganic particles, a catechol compound, and one or more fluoroacids. The preferred fluoroacids are selected from fluorotitanic acid, fluorozirconic acid, fluorosilicic acid, fluoroboric acid, fluorostannic acid, fluorogermanic acid, fluorohafnic acid, fluoroaluminic acid or salts of each thereof. The invention is also directed to a coating on a metal substrate. The coating comprises silica particles attached to the metal substrate through a metal-oxide matrix. The metal-oxide matrix comprises a metal selected from titanium, zirconium, silicon, hafnium, boron, aluminum, germanium, or tin, and a catechol compound.

US Classification:

362 19, 362558, 362560, 362607, 362613, 362627, 35948301, 35949301

Abstract:

The present invention provides a polarization-sensitive light homogenizer and a backlight and display using the same. The homogenizer improves the spatial luminance and color uniformity, increases the luminance in a direction normal to the homogenizer and provides increased luminance through polarized light recycling within the light homogenizer and backlight. In one embodiment, the homogenizer includes a polarization-sensitive anisotropic light-scattering (PDALS) region, a non-polarization-sensitive anisotropic light-scattering region, and a substantially non-scattering region. In a further embodiment, the non-scattering region is birefringent. The spatially non-uniform incident light flux from a backlight including one or more non-extended light emitting sources is scattered efficiently by the NPDASL region and is incident on the PDALS region which backscatters light orthogonal to the polarization state desired for efficient illumination of a liquid crystal display panel. The NPDASL and the PDALS form a multiple reflection cavity that will increase the spatial luminance while improving the light recycling of the appropriate polarization state. In a further embodiment the light homogenizer includes at least one of a light collimating region and a light re-directing region.

International Classification:

C03B 3200

US Classification:

65 29

Abstract:

The quality of temper in a glass sheet is determined by repeatedly scoring the glass sheet with a laser beam, to incrementally penetrate the compression zone, until the glass sheet shatters.

International Classification:

B01D 5304

US Classification:

95106

Abstract:

In accordance with the teachings of the present invention, an adsorbent filter having a continuous activated carbon fiber sheet is disclosed. The filter providing a frame, at least one continuous sheet of adsorbent fabric, and a plurality of supports for supporting the sheet within the frame such that contaminated fluid flows over one or more surfaces of the sheet. The contaminants being adsorbed by contact with the surface of the sheet.
