  • Publication number: 20250146644
    Abstract: A vehicle light has a heating element and a radiator vent that creates and distributes heated air inside the vehicle light. This prevents fog buildup on the inside of the light in cold and wet weather, allowing for more efficient and therefore safer lights for vehicles. A series of ceramic heating elements is arrayed in front of individual spines of a radiator vent. As each ceramic heating element receives electricity from the vehicle, its surface heats up. Air is blown past the heating elements and directed through the radiator vent by two or more blower motors. A temperature sensor regulates the amount of electricity that is sent to each ceramic element.

  • Patent number: 12292684
    Abstract: A method is provided including forming a first layer over a substrate and forming an adhesion layer over the first layer. The adhesion layer has a composition including an epoxy group. A photoresist layer is formed directly on the adhesion layer. A portion of the photoresist layer is exposed to a radiation source. The composition of the adhesion layer and the exposed portion of the photoresist layer cross-link using the epoxy group. Thee photoresist layer is then developed (e.g., by a negative tone developer) to form a photoresist pattern feature, which may overlie the formed cross-linked region.
