  • Patent number: 6663716
    Abstract: An apparatus for chemical vapor deposition includes a dispenser for dispensing a precursor to a vaporizer positioned within a vaporization chamber. A delivery conduit joins the vaporization with a process chamber. A flow meter is positioned within the delivery conduit for measuring the flow of precursor through the delivery conduit. A flow controller is likewise positioned within the delivery conduit for controlling the flow of precursor in response to the measured flow rate.

  • Patent number: 6317175
    Abstract: A display panel is formed using a single crystal thin-film transistors that are transferred to substrates for display fabrication. Pixel arrays form light valves or switches that can be fabricated with control electronics in the thin-film material prior to transfer. The resulting circuit panel is then incorporated into a projection display system with a light emitting or liquid crystal material to provide the desired light valve.

  • Patent number: 6097352
    Abstract: An active matrix display panel is operated by a color sequential system to form color images. A color generator is disposed between a light source and the display panel for sequentially providing red, green and blue light. A color sequential drive circuit controls the color generator and the pixels of the display panel. The color generator is preferably a multi-stage multiple wavelength blocking filter incorporating fast switching surface stabilized liquid crystal cells.

  • Patent number: 5781164
    Abstract: A passive matrix display device obtains fast response times and high resolutions by fabricating the control circuitry and passive matrix electrodes together as a single monolithic device. The electrodes and the control circuitry are fabricated as an SOI structure on a substrate. The structure is removed from the substrate and transferred to a glass substrate using a lift-off and transfer process. Performance is further increased by incorporating an active addressing procedure instead of standard multiplex addressing.

  • Patent number: 5692820
    Abstract: A rear projection monitor having a housing with reduced depth is disclosed. Images produced by liquid crystal active matrices are illuminated by a light source. The images are enlarged and projected by a projection lens having a large rear focus. A mirror reflects the projected images onto a viewing screen. The mirror is positioned between 36.degree. and 45.degree. in relation to the viewing screen. The back of the housing is adjacent to and slopes at the same angle as the mirror. The depth of the projection monitor is between 33% to 41% of the diameter of the viewing screen.
