  • Chromatic systems
    Patent number: 9778534
    Abstract: Chromatic systems and structures are presented that operate without external electrical supply, which enable changes in color or transparency of a substrate material, such as glass. Various configurations provide a mechanism to activate an oxidation-reduction reaction in a chromatic material, so as to change from transparent to opaque or from one color to another. These structures may be used in applications from windows for buildings and homes, camera lenses, automotive displays and windows, mobile device displays, and other applications where chromatic change is desired.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 15, 2014
    Date of Patent: October 3, 2017
    Assignee: POLYCEED INC.
    Inventors: Henry Tran, Scott Gilje, Maha Achour, Juan C. Lopez-Tonazzi, John P. Cronin, Anoop Agrawal

  • GRAPHENE OXIDE DEOXYGENATION
    Publication number: 20140111784
    Abstract: A graphene oxide (GO) target is exposed to light having power sufficient to initiate a deoxygenation reaction of the GO target. The deoxygenation reaction of the GO target transforms the GO target to graphene.

  • REDUCTION OF GRAPHENE OXIDE TO GRAPHENE IN HIGH BOILING POINT SOLVENTS
    Publication number: 20130309162
    Abstract: A method of creating graphene comprising the steps of dispersing graphene oxide into water to form a dispersion. Where the method further comprises adding a solvent to the dispersion to form a solution, and controlling a temperature of the solution to form graphene.
