  • Publication number: 20230077602
    Abstract: A method of fabricating radiation sensor dies includes forming a plurality of radiation-sensitive detector elements and a plurality of visible identifiers on at least some of the radiation-sensitive detector elements on a substrate, where each visible identifier is located in a different sub-region of the substrate containing a subset of the radiation-sensitive detector elements, and separating the sub-regions of the substrate from one another to provide a plurality of radiation sensor dies, where the visible identifier on each radiation sensor die uniquely identifies the radiation sensor die with respect to the other radiation sensor dies of the plurality of radiation sensor dies.

  • Patent number: 7846510
    Abstract: A method of making a specular reflective, mirror-like finish on a substrate comprising the steps of applying a one or more layers of a primer coating to the substrate and at least partially curing the primer coating; the following curing of the primer coating; applying an intermediate solution to the previously applied and cured primer coating, the intermediate solution comprising a vacuum metalized pigment in a solvent; further curing the primer coating and the intermediate coating to leave a substantially solvent-free intermediate coating; and applying, a transparent overlay coating to the cured intermediate coating.

  • Publication number: 20050244584
    Abstract: A specular reflective, mirror-like finish on a substrate comprising a multi-layered coating including a binder-free non-leafing, vacuum metallized aluminum in an intermediate layer, and methods and compositions for producing said surface.

  • Publication number: 20020134274
    Abstract: A projectile is made of a first (inner) body having a liquid tight interior cavity that contains a volume of a first liquid, and a second (outer) body that contains the first body and a volume of a second liquid. The second body also has a liquid tight interior cavity. The first and second liquids, when mixed, can start a chemiluminescent reaction. The second body is adapted to not rupture when the projectile has been shot at a target and to only rupture when the projectile has impacted the target.
