    摘要: A tactile display for providing tactile feedback has a touch surface layer formed of a plurality of pixels. Each pixel has an aperture for ejecting a fluid, and a valve for opening and closing the aperture. The valve is operable to modulate the fluid ejection through the aperture at a frequency selected for detection by the somatic sensors of a human finger.

The method includes providing a substrate and depositing a plurality of thin film device layers as a stack upon the substrate. An imprinted 3D template structure is provided upon the plurality of thin film device layers. The plurality of thin film device layers and the 3D template structure are then etched and at least one thin film device layer is undercut to provide a plurality of aligned electrical contact pairs and adjacent spacer posts. A flexible membrane providing a plurality of separate electrical contacts is deposited upon the spacer posts, the separate electrical contacts overlapping the contact pairs. The spacer posts provide a gap between the electrical contacts and the contact pairs.

    摘要: Disclosed is an anti-counterfeiting system. In a particular embodiment, the anti-counterfeiting system has a first structure having a plurality of three-dimensional nanostructures, each having a height dimension less than a wavelength of visible light. In addition, there is a second structure having a second plurality of three-dimensional nanostructures, each having a height dimension less than a wavelength of visible light. The first and second structures are configured to couple together. An alignment mechanism is operable to align the first structure to the second structure and establish proximate contact between the first and second pluralities of nanostructures. With respect to the first and second structures, each encodes part of an authentication key. The authentication key includes pre-determined elements and interaction modalities. The resolution of the structures makes them copy-resistant. An associated method of use is also provided.

    摘要: Provided is a low cost system and method for forming electronic devices, especially large surface area devices. The process of imprint lithography is combined with alternate manufacturing techniques to fabricate the devices. Initially, a template imprints a three-dimensional pattern into a resist layer deposited on a flexible substrate. The resist layer is cured using ultraviolet light or other curing techniques. After curing, the 3-D pattern is modified using one of several techniques to include inkjetting, electrodeposition or laser patterning. In one embodiment, a semi-fluid material may be jetted into channels formed in the pattern, thereby forming conductive or insulating lead lines. Alternatively, a two-dimensional pattern may be jetted onto the resist layer. Final processing may include multiple etch-mask-etch steps. The integration of techniques into a single system provides a low cost, efficient method for manufacturing high quality, large surface area electronic devices.

    摘要: This invention provides a thin film device with layer isolation structures. Specifically, a plurality of patterned thin film device layers provide a first rail and a second rail. There is at least one overpass between the first rail and the second rail. The overpass is defined by an array of spaced holes disposed transversely through the continuous material of the first rail on either side of the overpass. The holes are in communication with isolation voids adjacent to the second rail adjacent to the overpass.
