Patent number: 9322977Abstract: A display apparatus includes a display panel, a light guide plate, at least one light source and at least one reflective body. The light guide plate is disposed below the display panel. The light guide plate has a light-incident surface, a light-emitting surface, a rear surface, a plurality of concave microstructures and a plurality of reflective bodies. The rear surface is located farther away from the display panel than the light-emitting surface is. The light-incident surface is connected to the light-emitting surface and the rear surface. The concave microstructures are located on the rear surface. The reflective bodies are respectively located in the concave microstructures. The light source is disposed opposite to the light-incident surface.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2014Date of Patent: April 26, 2016Assignee: AU OPTRONICS CORPORATIONInventors: Chia-Wei Kuo, Bo-Shiang Tzeng, Yi-Yang Liao, Kun-Ying Hsin, Ching-Huan Lin, Chin-Tang Chuang, Yi-Hsiang Lai, Norio Sugiura

Patent number: 9236019Abstract: A display device includes multiple pixels, a gate driver and a data driver. Each pixel includes a transistor and a pixel capacitor electrically coupled to the transistor. The gate driver is configured to turn on the transistor of a first pixel for one time during a first turn-on period of multiple turn-on cycles of a frame cycle of a frame displayed by the display device. The data driver is configured to charge the pixel capacitor of the first pixel via the transistor of the first pixel to a first over-charge voltage and a data voltage during an over-charge period and a recovery period of the first turn-on period. The first over-charge voltage is different from the data voltage. A method for driving the display device is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2014Date of Patent: January 12, 2016Assignee: AU OPTRONICS CORP.Inventors: Yu-Hsin Ting, Wei-Chun Hsu, Chung-Lin Fu, Chung-Hung Chen, Chin-Tang Chuang

The specific weight of the first component exceeds that of the second component. A rotating base includes a receiving chamber, a first separation well, a second separation well, a first connection channel, a second connection channel, and a vent channel. The receiving chamber receives the fluid. The first connection channel connects the receiving chamber to the first separation well. The second connection channel connects the first separation well to the second separation well. The vent channel is connected to the receiving chamber. The distance from the first separation well to the receiving chamber exceeds that from the second separation well to the receiving chamber. When the rotating base rotates, the first and second components of the fluid flow into the first and second separation wells by centrifugal force, respectively.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2005Date of Patent: January 22, 2008Assignees: Industrial Technology Research Institute, Apex Biotechnology Corp.Inventors: Wen-Pin Hsieh, Chin-Tang Chuang, Jian-Je Jian, Iany-H Liau, Ke-Shieng Yang
