Abstract:
A thin-film heating device includes a base layer, a bus bar layer and an electrode layer. The base layer includes a polymeric resistive layer, including conductive filler, in contact with a polymeric dielectric layer. The polymeric resistive layer has a sheet resistance in a range of from about 0.5 ohm/square to about 2 Megaohm/square. The bus bar layer is adhered to the polymeric dielectric layer of the base layer. The bus bar layer includes a first patterned conductive material. The electrode layer includes a second patterned conductive material and is electrically connected to the bus bar layer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the design, construction and manufacture of a novel electrical high temperature heater having a polymer thick film conductor paste with which to form an electrode on resistive film.
Abstract:
A flexible layered structure is disclosed having a flexible top conductive layer, a flexible bottom heat sink layer and a flexible dielectric middle layer. The combination has a longitudinal axis and a plurality of defined positions spaced along the longitudinal axis. The defined positions can be used for aligning a circuit and/or for the placement of LED lights. The flexible layered structure can be easily bent to form a LED substrate for shining light in more than one direction while efficiently removing heat arising from the LEDs.
