  • Publication number: 20080205203
    Abstract: An optical head to access data on an optical recording medium, which has two data storage densities, includes two sets of optical path systems to provide two optical paths that are crossed. Each optical path system includes a laser light generation unit, a light guiding unit, a converging objective lens and a photo detector. The light guiding unit is located on the optical path of the laser light generation unit, to direct the laser light to pass through the converging objective lens and focus on the data side of the optical recording medium to carry optical data signals from the data side. The laser light returns to the light guiding unit and travels along the optical path and is received by the photo detector.

  • Publication number: 20080199638
    Abstract: A method for producing a light reflecting structure in a transflective or reflective liquid crystal display uses one or two masks for masking a photoresist layer in a back-side exposing process. The pattern on the masks is designed to produce rod-like structures or crevices and holes on exposed and developed photoresist layer. After the exposed photoresist is developed, a heat treatment process or a UV curing process is used to soften the photoresist layer so that the reshaped surface is more or less contiguous but uneven. A reflective coating is then deposited on the uneven surface. One or more intermediate layers can be made between the masks, between the lower mask and the substrate, and between the upper masks and the photoresist layers. The masks and the intermediate layers can be made in conjunction with the fabrication of the liquid crystal display panel.

  • Publication number: 20080194100
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for forming a metal silicide layer. The method comprises steps of providing a substrate and forming a nickel-noble metal layer over the substrate. A grain boundary sealing layer is formed on the nickel-noble metal layer and then an oxygen diffusion barrier layer is formed on the grain boundary sealing layer. Thereafter, a rapid thermal process is performed to transform a portion of the nickel-noble metal layer into a metal silicide layer. Finally, the oxygen diffusion barrier layer, the grain boundary sealing layer and the rest portion of the nickel-noble metal layer are removed.

  • Publication number: 20080158703
    Abstract: A manufacturing method of a color filter comprising the following steps is provided. At first, a transparent substrate is provided. Next, a black matrix is formed on the transparent substrate to define a plurality of pixel areas on the transparent substrate.

  • Patent number: 7389664
    Abstract: An electromagnetic forming device for a sheet of material is provided. The electromagnetic forming device includes a fixing base, a magnetic concentration block, an electromagnetic actuator, and a die. The fixing base has a groove. The magnetic concentration block is disposed in the groove of the fixing base, and has an accommodating space therein, which is in communication with a surface of the magnetic concentration block via a slit. The electromagnetic actuator, used to generate a magnetic field, is disposed in the accommodating space of the magnetic concentration block, but does not contact the magnetic concentration block. The die and the magnetic concentration block are separated by a gap, and a sheet of material can be disposed in the gap. As the magnetic concentration block is a block, eddy currents in the magnetic concentration block are distributed uniformly, so the generated magnetic field is also distributed uniformly, thus exerting a uniform forming force on the sheet of material.
