摘要:
A method of making a standard tool for calibrating polarimeters that analyze stress in photoelastic material, includes the steps of partially annealing a starting piece of tempered glass so that the starting piece has a retardance below 250 nm/cm, removing a peripheral portion of the starting piece (preferably, at least about 20% of its radial dimension) to leave a working piece, cutting a rectangular parallelepiped from the working piece, polishing two opposing faces of the rectangular parallelepiped where the two opposing faces are spaced apart by a measurement distance through which light passes during stress analysis in a polarimeter, and determining a birefringence of the rectangular parallelepiped across the measurement distance using a calibrated polarimeter. The standard tool is the rectangular parallelepiped having the determined birefringence for the measurement distance. The method can be used to make a set of the standard tools with different measurement distances.

An LED light source (10) comprises a ceramic substrate (20) with first and second opposed surfaces (30, 40). Pockets (50) are formed in the first surface (30) and each of the pockets includes a bottom (60) and a sidewall or sidewalls (70). A final electrical contact (105) comprised of a first electrically conductive material (57) with a coating of a second electrically conductive material (100) thereover is positioned in each of the pockets (50). An LED (110) is positioned in each of the pockets (50) and affixed to the electrical contact (105) and electrical connections (120), preferably in form of wire bonds, join the LEDs, the electrical connections (120) extending from a first LED (110) to an adjacent electrical contact (105). The ceramic substrate (20) is formed by injection molding a ceramic material and binder to form a green substrate (12) and subsequently sintering the green substrate to form the substrate (20). An LED light (150) can be formed from the LED light source (10) by adding a dome (150) formed of a ceramic material containing therein a homogeneous dispersion of a phosphor material capable of emitting light when excited by the light emitted from the operating LEDs (110).

A spooless trimmer head which utilizes finite lengths of trimmer line inserted through apertures in the trimmer head housing. The lines are thick, strong, long lasting and easily replaced when worn. One end of each line extends from the trimmer head to rotate and cut vegetation. The line includes a collar having a flange formed on an opposite end to retain a distal end of the line in the trimmer head housing. The line is crimped to the collar approximately ⅓ the distance from the collar to the distal end of the line. The crimping location in combination with the position of the flange of the collar reduce the stress and strain on the trimmer line and enhance the longevity of the line.

A luminescent nanophase binder is provided for use in UV and VUV applications. The binder promotes adherence of phosphor coatings to lamp envelopes and emits visible light under UV and VUV excitation. In a preferred embodiment, the binder comprises SiO2 nanoparticles doped with terbium or terbium and yttrium. Preferably, the nanoparticles have a particle size of less than 50 nm.

LED lamps having a high color rendering index are disclosed. In some embodiments, such lamps also exhibit high lumen maintenance and low color drift during lamp warm-up. The lamps may include, for example, a light emitting diode (LED) kernel having a mixture of red and blue LEDs, and a converter including a red phosphor in an amount ranging from greater than 0 to about 10 weight % of a total phosphor content of the converter.

There is herein described a phosphor composition for converting the light emitted from LED dies. The phosphor composition has an emission dominant wavelength responsive to an excitation dominant wavelength. The phosphor composition includes a first phosphor, a second phosphor and a third phosphor. The phosphor composition has a first weight ratio of the first phosphor and the second phosphor, and a second weight ratio of the second phosphor and the third phosphor. The first and second weight ratios are arranged so that the emission dominant wavelength increases as the excitation dominant wavelength increases.
