  • Publication number: 20130044775
    Abstract: A thermal conduction path for a heat-sensitive, heat-generating component is formed by placing a heat-generating device, such as a laser diode, in a desired orientation relative to a supporting surface. A solid-phase mass of a heat-conducting material is positioned between the heat-generating device and the supporting surface and is converted to liquid phase by heating the supporting surface. Additional heat-conducting material is then added to the liquid-phase heat-conducting material until a meniscus is formed between the heat-generating component and the supporting surface. Because the heat-conducting material has a melting point or liquidus that is less than a critical temperature of the heat-generating component, the thermal conduction path can be formed without damaging the heat-generating component.

  • Patent number: 8089425
    Abstract: Scanning beam display systems based on scanning light on a fluorescent screen. The screen can include fluorescent materials which emit visible light under excitation of the scanning light to form images with the emitted visible light. Multiple lasers can be used to simultaneously scan multiple laser beams to illuminate the screen for enhanced display brightness. For example, the multiple laser beams can illuminate one screen segment at a time and sequentially scan multiple screen segments to complete a full screen.
