  • Publication number: 20240161403
    Abstract: Text-to-image generation generally refers to the process of generating an image from one or more text prompts input by a user. While artificial intelligence has been a valuable tool for text-to-image generation, current artificial intelligence-based solutions are more limited as it relates to text-to-3D content creation. For example, these solutions are oftentimes category-dependent, or synthesize 3D content at a low resolution. The present disclosure provides a process and architecture for high-resolution text-to-3D content creation.

  • Publication number: 20240122856
    Abstract: A method of preparing polylactic acid (PLA) microsphere and polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) microsphere is provided, including the following steps. A first solution is provided, including polylactic acid or polylactic-co-glycolic acid and an organic solvent. A second solution is provided, including polyvinyl alcohol, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and an aqueous solution. The first solution is added to the second solution and, at the same time, the second solution is agitated until polylactic acid is solidified to form a plurality of polylactic acid microspheres, or until polylactic-co-glycolic acid is solidified to form a plurality of polylactic-co-glycolic acid microspheres. The polylactic acid microspheres or polylactic-co-glycolic acid microspheres are collected.

  • Patent number: 7085460
    Abstract: A surface light source unit (2) includes a light source (21), a light guide plate (22), a reflective plate (23) and a diffusing plate (24). The light guide plate includes a light incidence surface (221) adjacent to the light source for receiving light beams, an emission surface (222) for emitting the light beams, a light reflection surface (223) opposite to the emission surface and a plurality of diffusion dots (224) formed on the light reflection surface. The diffusion dots contain a plurality of light scattering particles (225) having substantially global surfaces. The surface light source unit provides high uniform illumination for a liquid crystal display panel.

  • Patent number: 7014343
    Abstract: A light guide plate (10) includes a transparent plate (20), and a plurality of diffusing protrusions (30). The transparent plate includes an emitting surface (21), and a bottom surface (23) opposite to the emitting surface. The diffusing protrusions are distributed evenly on the emitting surface of the transparent plate, and are integrated with the transparent plate. The diffusing protrusions are hemispherical or sub-hemispherical, and a diameter of each diffusing protrusion is in the range from 10 ?m˜50 ?m. The light guide plate provides high emitting brightness and uniformity. The diffusing protrusions can diffuse light beams emitting from the emitting surface of the transparent plate, in order to achieve a plane light source having even brightness. The present Invention also discloses a method for fabricating the light guide plate.

  • Publication number: 20040178057
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an electrode plate (2) for a battery includes the steps of: preparing a substrate (21) and a target (4), the target being made from an active material, and respectively mounting the substrate and the target in a sputtering chamber (1)a predetermined distance apart; evacuating the sputtering chamber; introducing a non-reactive gas and a reactive gas into the sputtering chamber; applying a voltage between the target and the substrate using a power source (5), thus activating a plasma between the target and the substrate and resulting in deposit of the active material from the target on the substrate until a desired thickness of an active material layer (22) is formed on the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20040114347
    Abstract: A light guide plate (10) includes a transparent plate (20), a plurality of diffusing protrusions (30) and a plurality of dots (40). The transparent plate includes an emitting surface (21), and a bottom surface (23) opposite to the emitting surface. The diffusing protrusions are distributed on the emitting surface of the transparent plate, and are integrated with the transparent plate. The dots are distributed on the bottom surface of the transparent plate. The light guide plate provides high emitting brightness and uniformity. The diffusing protrusions can diffuse light beams emitting from the emitting surface of the transparent plate, in order to achieve a plane light source having even brightness. Moreover, the dots on the bottom surface can scatter and reflect incident light beams, so as to totally eliminate internal reflection of light beams and make the light beams evenly emit from the emitting surface.
