  • Method for forming ceramic containing composite structure
    Patent number: 8206792
    Abstract: A method for forming a ceramic containing composite structure is proposed comprising the steps of (a) feeding a ceramic component that sublimes and a metallic or semi-conductor material that does not sublime into a thermal spray apparatus, (b) spraying the ceramic component and the metallic or semi-conductor material onto a substrate, whereby the ceramic component and the metallic or semi-conductor material deposit on the surface of the substrate, and (c) keeping the metallic or semi-conductor material on the substrate surface plastic during spraying at least in the region where the metallic or semi-conductor material actually strikes the surface.

  • Projection screen material and methods of manufacture
    Patent number: 6346311
    Abstract: Disclosed is a light-transmissive material and methods of its manufacture. The light-transmissive material of the invention uses two distinct particles in a diffusive layer to provide increased light transmissive properties. For example, when used as a rear projection screen, the light-transmissive material of the invention exhibits high gain, high contrast, and low scintillation. In another embodiment of the invention, the light-transmissive material includes light channeling contrast enhancement layer.
