摘要:
A method sticks onto a curved surface of a substrate a functional film (4) that has a substantially planar initial shape. To this end, the film (4) is retained on a deformable membrane (1) by connecting means (2) that allow portions of said film to slip relative to the membrane when said membrane is deformed. This reduces stresses that are created in the film by the deformation. The method is adapted for applying a functional film to an ophthalmic lens.

The invention relates to a transparent optical component having a cellular structure, comprising a network of walls (106), that forms a set of cells (104) that are juxtaposed parallel to a component surface. In order to produce such a component, an irregular set of points (101, 105) in the surface of the component is determined, each point being used to form a centre of one of the cells. A position and an orientation of each wall are then determined such that the set of cells forms a Voronoï partition of the surface of the component. The component has a level of transparency that is compatible with an optical or ophthalmological use.

A transparent optical component comprises two sets of cells (1) disposed in respective superposed layers (10, 20). Each cell (1) contains an optically active material, and the cells in each set are isolated from one another by separating portions (2) within the corresponding layer. The cells (1) of one layer are offset relative to the cells of the other layer so as to be located in line with the separating portions (2) pertaining to the other layer. Such optical component exhibits transparency that is improved compared with components having a single layer of cells or cells that are superposed.

The invention relates to a photochromic optical article with reduced thermal dependency, comprising: (a) a transparent substrate, (b) a saturated photochromic layer having, in the activated state and at a temperature of 20°C, a relative transmission factor of less than 1% in the visible range, and (c) an anti-UV coating of plastic material at least partially covering the saturated photochromic layer, the said anti-UV coating containing at least one agent which absorbs UV radiation (anti-UV agent) and is distributed in a pattern consisting of a multitude of points, each having a surface area of less than 0.15 mm 2, the average distance between two neighbouring points lying between 0.5 and 2 mm and the ratio of the overall surface area of all the points to the total surface area of the anti-UV coating being such that the relative transmission factor of the optical article in the visible range in the activated state and at 20°C is at least equal to 5%. The invention also relates to two methods for manufacturing such an optical article.

The invention relates to transparent electrochromic systems (100) which each include one pair of supply electrodes (1, 2) and at least one pair of polarisation electrodes (3, 4). The polarisation electrodes prevent a reaction of mutual neutralisation of the electroactive substances of the systems from causing unnecessary consumption of electric current. Said electrodes also prevent a neutralisation reaction from limiting a lower value of light transmission of the systems. For this purpose, the polarisation electrodes produce an electric field (E) inside the systems, which attracts the electroactive substances that have already reacted with the supply electrodes to different areas.

The invention relates to an optical article, comprising a substrate covered with an abrasion and scratch resistant coating with a lower layer and an upper layer stuck to each other, the upper layer and the lower layer being made of hardened layers of upper and lower layer compositions, the upper layer composition comprising at least one organosilane, or hydrolysate thereof, of formula RnYmSi(X)4-n-m and at least one compound or hydrolysate thereof of formula M(Z)x, the following ratio being less than 2.3 : Rs=mass of the theoretical dry extract of compounds I in the upper layer composition/mass of the theoretical dry extract of compounds II in the upper layer composition. The lower layer composition comprises at least one organosilane, or hydrolysate thereof of formula R'n'Y'm'Si(X')4-n-m' and, optionally at least one compound, or hydrolysate thereof of formula M'(Z')y, the following ratio being greater than 2.3 : Ri = mass of the theoretical dry extract of compounds III in the lower layer composition/mass of the theoretical dry extract of compounds IV in the lower layer composition. In the above formulae, M and M' are metals or metalloids of valence x and y, at least equal to 4, R and R' are monovalent organic groups bonded to silicon by a carbon atom and containing at least one epoxy function, groups X, X', Z and Z' are hydrolysable groups, Y and Y' are monovalent organic groups bonded to silicon by a carbon atom, n, m, n' and m' are whole numbers such that n and n' = 1 or 2 with n+m and n'+m' = 1 or 2.

The invention relates to a transparent component (100) comprising active members (10) that are juxtaposed in parallel to a surface of the component, and that are each switchable between a transparent state and a reflecting state. Each active member establishes a light path between a light passage opening and a side of the component when said active member is reflecting. An addressing system (2) further controls the switching of the active members so that a reduced number of active members is simultaneously reflecting. Therefore, an image formed by transparency through the component thus appears permanently and continuously. Such a transparent component can be used for making an image superimposition device and an image display and storage device.
