Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to silicate-based coatings and to methods to make and apply same. In one embodiment, the silicate-coatings of the present invention are formed from a two part mixture of phosphate-based component and a glass-based component. In another embodiment, the silicate-based coatings of the present invention are free from any organic materials.
Abstract:
El proceso para la transformación de una placa vidrio base de tipo sodocalcico industrial en un material vidriado con propiedades antimicrobianas y color personalizado consiste en un proceso de producción de un material vidriado con actividad antimicrobiana. A dicho vidrio se le añade nanopartículas de cobre (NPCu) con el objetivo de alterar directamente la protección celular de virus y bacterias para destruir su material genético. El vidrio antibacteriano es aplicado específicamente hacia el sector industrial de superficies y cubiertas, que suelen utilizarse en instalaciones hospitalarias y cubiertas para la manipulación de alimentos y bebidas, entre otros usos.

Abstract:
An insulated glass unit is described and includes at least a first glass layer, a second glass layer and a third glass layer disposed therebetween. The third glass layer is separated from the first glass layer and the second glass layer by first and second sealed gap spaces. The third glass layer has a low CTE as compared to the CTE of the first and/or second glass layers. In some instances, the third glass layer has a CTE of less than 70 x 10 -7 /°C over a temperature range of 0-300°C.
Abstract:
The present invention concerns a detection device comprising (a) a LiDAR sensing device; (b) a housing enclosing said LiDAR sensing device, and comprising at least one cover lens; characterized in that, at least a portion of the cover lens is made of at least one glass sheet having an absorption coefficient lower than 5 m -1 in the wavelength range from 750 to 1650nm, preferably in the range of 750 to 1050nm. The present invention further concerns the use of a cover lens made of at least one glass sheet having an absorption coefficient lower than 5 m -1 in the wavelength range comprised between 750 and 1650 nm, preferably in the range of 750 to 1050nm, to protect a LiDAR sensing device from external degradation.
Abstract:
A method of fabrication and device made by preparing a photosensitive glass substrate comprising at least silica, lithium oxide, aluminum oxide, and cerium oxide, masking a design layout comprising form one or more micro lens on the photosensitive glass substrate, exposing at least one portion of the photosensitive glass substrate to an activating energy source, exposing the photosensitive glass substrate to a heating phase of at least ten minutes above its glass transition temperature, cooling the photosensitive glass substrate to transform at least part of the exposed glass to a crystalline material to form a glass-crystalline substrate and etching the glass-crystalline substrate with an etchant solution to form one or more a micro lens.
Abstract:
A silicon wafer-based photovoltaic module is described, which includes a first outer protective layer and a second outer protective layer, wherein both outer protective layers comprise a low- or no-sodium glass or low- or no-alkali compositions. The photovoltaic modules show resistance to water ingress, no or reduced potential-induced sodium ion drift, and reduced potential induced degradation.
