Abstract: This disclosure provides methods and apparatuses for annealing an oxide semiconductor in a thin film transistor (TFT). In one aspect, the method includes providing a substrate with a partially fabricated TFT structure formed on the substrate. The partially fabricated TFT structure can include an oxide semiconductor layer and a dielectric oxide layer on the oxide semiconductor layer. The oxide semiconductor layer is annealed by heating the dielectric oxide layer with an infrared laser under ambient conditions to a temperature below the melting temperature of the oxide semiconductor layer. The infrared laser radiation can be substantially absorbed by the dielectric oxide layer and can remove unwanted defects from the oxide semiconductor layer at an interface in contact with the dielectric oxide layer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a dual lens system capable of maintaining a substantially constant color within a well-defined angular range of light incident on a reflective pixel. Each reflective pixel (or subpixel) of a display may include a primary lens and a field lens. The field lens may be positioned at a distance equal to a focal length of the primary lens. Each plane wave of incident light arriving at the primary lens aperture may be focused on a unique location of the focal plane, but may emerge from the field lens within the same range of angles. If a reflective pixel is positioned below the field lens, the reflected color should be substantially the same within a range of viewing angles. The range of angles may be defined by the numerical aperture of the lens system and by black mask material disposed between the reflective pixels or subpixels. Thus, a reflective display includes an array of reflective pixels; an array of primary lenses, each of the primary lenses corresponding to a distinct one of the reflective pixels; and an array of field lenses, each of the field lenses corresponding to a distinct one of the reflective pixels and one of the primary lenses, each of the field lenses being positioned at a distance from a corresponding primary lens, the distance being a focal length of the corresponding primary lens, each of the field lenses being disposed proximate a corresponding reflective pixel.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to methods of patterning elongated structures. In one aspect, a method of forming pillars includes providing a substrate and providing a plurality of beads on a surface of the substrate. Regions of the surface without a directly overlying bead are exposed. The method additionally includes selectively etching the exposed regions of the substrate between the beads such that a plurality of pillars is formed under areas masked by the beads. Selectively etching completely removes at least some of the beads. The pillars that are not covered by beads are etched, thereby leaving some pillars taller than others, with the pillar height pending on the amount of time a pillar was left exposed to etchant by a removed bead.

Abstract: An optical touch sensor may include traces of photoconductive material formed on a substantially transparent substrate. Each photoconductive trace may be capable of responding to an incident light intensity increase on a portion of the photoconductive trace by increasing the number of charged carriers, thereby raising the electrical conductivity of that portion of the photoconductive trace. An incident light intensity decrease on a portion of the photoconductive trace will lower the electrical conductivity of that portion of the photoconductive trace. The corresponding changes in voltage may be measured by circuits that include conductive traces formed substantially perpendicular to, and configured for electrical connection with, the traces of photoconductive material. A diode (such as a Schottky diode) may be formed at the electrical connections between the conductive traces and the photoconductive traces.
