Abstract: The present invention provides a flexible wire grid polarizer used in a visible ray band and a fabricating method thereof. The present invention includes the steps of forming a non-adhesive layer on an inner area of a lower substrate, forming a flexible polymer substrate on the lower substrate including the non-adhesive layer, forming a thin metal layer on the flexible polymer substrate, forming a metal grid pattern by etching the thin metal layer, dicing a wafer staying within a boundary of the non-adhesive layer on the lower substrate, and separating the lower substrate including the non-adhesive layer from the diced wafer to complete the flexible wire grid polarizer.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a reflector apparatus for reflecting light upon a film set. The reflector apparatus comprises a fire retardant frame formed of a twin wall board made with a block-copolymer polypropylene resin with flame inhibiting properties. A flexible fire retardant sheet is detachably attached with the frame. The fire retardant sheet is constructed of a fire retardant material such as ripstop, ultra bounce, and nugget cloth. Through use of the reflector apparatus, a user can direct the light from a lamp onto the frame and/or flexible fire retardant sheet to be reflected onto the film set, allowing the user to control lighting conditions of the film set. The present invention also relates to a method for reflecting light upon a set using the reflector apparatus described herein.

Abstract: Collector optics (70) for an EUV radiation source (10) for collecting EUV radiation (78). The collector optics (70) includes an elliptical dish reflector (72) where light generated at a focal point (76) of the reflector (72) is collected by the reflector (72) and is directed to a collection location (82). A frustal annular reflector (90) is positioned around an outer edge (84) of the dish reflector (72) to collect more of the EUV radiation (78) that may otherwise be lost. The radiation (78) reflected by the annular reflector (90) is directed to a center axicon reflector (94) positioned between the focal point (76) of the dish reflector (72) and the collection location (82) to redirect the radiation (78) reflected by the annular reflector (90) to be within a predetermined collection angle.

Abstract: An auxiliary rearview mirror mounting structure for fastening an auxiliary rearview mirror to a main rearview mirror is disclosed to include two support arms, which are pivotally connected to the auxiliary rearview mirror and each have a two hooks for hooking on the rim of the auxiliary rearview mirror and two flexible connecting members inserted through a respective horizontal front insertion hole and a respective vertical rear insertion hole and adjustably coupled to a respective vertical sliding track at the respective support arm, and two length-adjustable binding devices connected between the flexible connecting members at the support arms for securing the support arms to the main rearview mirror.
Abstract: Electronic binoculars comprise an imaging unit, an image-signal processing unit, and first and second ocular units. First and second optical images, obtained by the optical system, are converted to first and second electric signals, due to imaging operations of the first and second imaging devices. The imaging operations of the first and second imaging devices are simultaneously started, and ended at different times. The image-signal processing unit superimposes the first and second electric signals to generate a third electric signal. The first and second ocular units indicate object images based on the third electric signal.
Abstract: A reflective mechanism includes a base fixed on a support member of a stage lamp, a bracket fixed on the base, a mirror frame, and a reflective mirror mounted on the mirror frame. A hollow shaft rotatably extends through an axial hole of the base and includes a fork on an end thereof. The hollow shaft is driven by a first motor mounted on the base to turn about a longitudinal axis of the hollow shaft. The mirror frame includes a pivotal portion pivotally mounted to the fork of the hollow shaft. The pivotal portion of the mirror frame is driven by a second motor to pivot through transmission by an endless cord that extends through the hollow shaft without interfering with rotation of the hollow shaft.
