  • Patent number: 9145601
    Abstract: A composite material which expands the range of light-absorption of an original constitution material, which is formed through two or more total oxides contacting and fixing to the oxygen reduced oxides with the same composition of materials as the total oxides. The composite material can excite the light-driven reaction to achieve an enlarged absorption range of the light band. In the contacting and fixing process of the composite material, a calcination process is not required, so that the process can be applied to a substrate which is plastic or not suitable for high-temperature heating.

  • Publication number: 20130256932
    Abstract: A method for preparing a hemisphere-shaped dosage form containing drug. A high molecular weight solution containing the drug is prepared, and the solution is then dropped onto a base material. The interface phenomenon between the solution and different base materials causes the solution to form a hemisphere-shaped liquid drop dosage. After solidifying by cross-link or evaporation, a hemisphere-shaped dosage form containing drug is obtained. The advantages of the preparation method are a simple and fast process, and simple operation. Applications of the preparation method to prepare a hemisphere-shaped dosage form containing drug are also provide.

  • Publication number: 20110250414
    Abstract: A novel TCO coating and its manufacturing method are disclosed. The TCO coating of the present invention consists of titanium oxide, silicon oxide and metal. The TCO coating is manufactured according to electromagnetic field simulation software basing on the Maxwell Equations. Because the manufacturing method (including steam plating and sputter plating) of the present invention may be carried out under the room temperature, base boards that are made of polymer and that can not withstand high temperatures may be used and hence base boards may have wider applications. Also, less time is needed in the production, production cost is lowered and mass-production may be achieved.
