Abstract:
Provided is a conductive paste capable of adjusting resistivity and forming a conductor film having high strength of bonding with a glass substrate and high mounting strength of a metal terminal. The conductive paste contains a conductive component, a glass frit having a composition containing a Bi2O3nullB2O3nullSiO2nullAl2O3 or Bi2O3nullB2O3nullSiO2nullAl2P3nullZnO primary component and about 0.5 to 5% by weight of NiO as a secondary component, and an organic vehicle. The conductive paste is applied on a glass substrate and then baked to form a conductor film. A glass circuit structure formed by using the conductor film can be advantageously used as a defogging glass for an automobile window.
Abstract:
A method for making a reinforced glass includes one or more layers of tempered glass layers and a base glass layer secured together by a transparent adhesive material so as to form a prototype. The prototype is then gradually pressurized to solidly secure the layers together. The transparent adhesive material is formed by melting and slowly stirring the polyurethane material and the acrylic material together and then slowly adding and stirring the epoxy material. The materials are slowly stirred together to prevent formation of air bubbles in the material.
Abstract:
There is provided a method of producing a member of a periodic structure having a plurality of high refractive index layers and a plurality of low refractive index layers having a refractive index lower than a refractive index of the high refractive index layers alternately stacked, each of the high refractive index layer and low refractive index layer having a thickness finer than a wavelength, and the method comprises the steps of: alternately superimposing a plurality of first sheet glasses having a high refractive index and a plurality of second sheet glasses having a refractive index lower than a refractive index of the first sheet glasses on each other to form a stacked member; heating the stacked member to a temperature of not less than a glass transition temperature; and applying a pressure to the heated stacked member perpendicularly to a principal surface of the sheet glasses or extending the heated stacked member parallel to the principal surface of the sheet glasses, thereby integrating the stacked member while reducing the thickness of each of the sheet glasses. Thus, by forming an artificially controlled fine structure, a base bulk material for forming an optical element having an optional refractive index distribution or optical anisotropy can be produced.

The polarizing plate is formed having a laminate of a polarizing film and a transparent protective layer provided on at least one surface of the polarizing film. By heat-treating and subsequently reheat-treating, the laminate has a shrinkage force of at most 8N/10 mm width when the laminate is further left at 60null C. for 1 hour, and furthermore, the laminate has a single hue value b of at most 4.6 NBS.
Abstract:
This invention provides film deposition method and film deposition system for depositing a halogen compound film, which are capable of depositing such a film while suppressing abuse that occurs due to deficiency of a halogen element even if the halogen element is dissociated from a film material. Specifically, the halogen compound film is deposited through a process including: evaporating a film material comprising a halogen compound by means of an evaporation source 3; ionizing the evaporated film material with a radio frequency power outputted from a radio frequency power supply unit 11 and supplied through a substrate holder 2; and causing the ionized film material to deposit on the substrate 5. In this process a bias voltage outputted from a bias power supply unit 12 and applied to the substrate holder 2 causes halogen ions dissociated from ions of the halogen compound to be incorporated into the film being deposited on the substrate 5.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an improved process or method for transferring a coating onto at least one surface of a lens blank which can be implemented in a short period of time without any risk of deformation of the lens blank.

A monolithic ceramic substrate includes a green laminate having a plurality of green functional ceramic layers including a functional ceramic material, green support layers including a ceramic material that does not sinter at a sintering temperature for the green functional ceramic material to prevent shrinkage of the functional ceramic layers, first conductor patterns including a thin-film conductor, and second conductor patterns including a thick-film conductor. The green laminate is fired at the sintering temperature for the green functional ceramic material.
Abstract:
A device stage assembly (10) for positioning a device (26) is provided herein. The device stage assembly (10) includes a mover housing (44), a device stage (14), a support assembly (18), and a control system (22). The support assembly (18) moves the device stage (14) relative to the mover housing (44) under the control of the control system (22). Uniquely, the support assembly (18) includes at least four, spaced apart Z device stage movers (84), (86), (88), (90) that move the device stage (14) relative to the mover housing (44). Further, the control system (22) controls the Z device stage movers (84), (86), (88), (90) to inhibit dynamic and static deformation of the device stage (14) during movement of the device stage (14). Further, the four Z device stage movers (84), (86), (88), (90) distribute forces on the device stage (14) in a way that more closely matches the gravitational and inertial loads on the device stage (14).
Abstract:
A process for laminating multi-layer pre-forms into laminated glazing assemblies is provided. The pre-forms are first subjected to a vacuum in an inlet lock. Then, the pre-forms are heated to an assembly or bonding temperature in a heating chamber, while still being subjected to vacuum. Next, the pre-forms are pressed using pressing pieces in a pressing chamber, which is also subjected to vacuum. A greater pressure is exerted along the edges of the laminated glazing assemblies so as to bond the edges, preferably by using membranes. In an outlet lock which follows the pressing chamber, the laminated glazing assemblies are again vented to atmospheric pressure. An apparatus suitable for carrying out the process is also provided. The apparatus has chambers which are connected together by conveyors so as to achieve a quasi-continuous flow of material.
