Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an anisotropic conductive film, a display device and a reworking method thereof. The anisotropic conductive film comprises: a first resin layer having positively photosensitive characteristics and conductive particles distributed in the first resin layer. Since the first resin layer has positively photosensitive characteristics, it can be decomposed after the exposure process. In this case, when failures occur in the binding of the display panel with the external circuit by the anisotropic conductive film, the first resin layer in the anisotropic conductive film can be decomposed by performing an exposure process on the anisotropic conductive film, so as to separate the external circuit from the display panel for reworking of the display panel. In this way, no heating process is needed, which not only simplifies the reworking procedure, but also is suitable for the reworking of a flexible display panel.

Abstract: Materials and methods of modifying an electrode surface are described herein. Self-assembled monolayers (SAM) of polyaromatic molecules covalently attached and form a graphitic-like surface on the electrode surface. After covalent attachment of the polyaromatic monolayer to the surface, polyaromatic-functionalized molecular species is physisorbed onto the surface using the ?-interactions. This concept can be applied to generate high performance electrode materials modified with molecular species. The electrode materials can be applied in photoelectrochemical cells, electrochemical cells, sensors, and electrochromic materials. This approach overcomes the major synthetic challenges to modifying surfaces with molecular species, in addition to protecting the surfaces from corrosion.

Abstract: The disclosed retroreflective element includes a polymeric core that is loaded with a plurality of first beads and second beads distributed at the perimeter of the core. The first beads are different than the second beads. Because of the beads in the core, the retroreflective element remains useful for returning light even after portions of the core begins to wear away. Further, when the retroreflective elements get wet, water will settle to the bottom of the perimeter of the core. Therefore, using the second beads with a refractive index suited for wet conditions, while the first beads have a refractive index suited for dry conditions allows the retroreflective element to be useful in both wet and dry conditions even while the retroreflective element wears during use.
