  • Patent number: 11944377
    Abstract: In one aspect, devices for light treatment of skin are described herein. A device described herein, in some embodiments, comprises an interior compartment having a proximal end and a distal end, and an optical aperture disposed at the distal end. The device also comprises a laser or BBL source that produces a laser or BBL beam. The laser or BBL beam has a first optical path within the interior compartment, between the proximal end and the distal end. Additionally, the first optical path exits the interior compartment through the optical aperture. The device further comprises an imaging system that receives a return signal from the aperture. The return signal received from the aperture has a second path within the interior compartment. Further, a selectively reflective optical element is disposed in the first and second optical paths. The selectively reflective optical element generally transmits the laser or BBL beam.

  • Publication number: 20150317034
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for a water-immune FTIR touchscreen. An optically clear adhesive with an index of refraction between that of water and human skin in the infrared wavelength range is placed below a touchscreen interface substrate. Light beams with a glancing angle greater than a critical glancing angle determined by the index of refraction of the optically clear adhesive do not totally internally reflect at the interface of the touchscreen interface substrate and the optically clear adhesive. Light beams with a glancing angle below the critical glancing angle totally internally reflect. A glancing angle that totally internally reflects at the substrate/optically clear adhesive interface will also totally internally reflect at an interface of the substrate and any water on the surface of the substrate, rendering the touchscreen immune to the effects of water.

  • Publication number: 20120308771
    Abstract: A nanostructure film, comprising at least one interconnected network of nanostructures, wherein the nanostructure film is optically transparent and electrically conductive. A method for improving the optoelectronic properties of a nanostructure film, comprising: forming a nanostructure film having a thickness that, if uniform, would result in a first optical transparency and a first sheet resistance that are lower than desired; and patterning holes in the nanostructure film, such that a desired higher second optical transparency and a second sheet resistance are achieved. A method for depositing a nanostructure film on a rigid substrate comprises: depositing the nanostructure film on a flexible substrate; and transferring the nanostructure film from the flexible substrate to a rigid substrate, wherein the flexible substrate comprises at least one of a release liner and a heat- or chemical-sensitive adhesive layer.
