  • Process for preparing quantum dot array and quantum dot superlattice
    Patent number: 9917218
    Abstract: The present invention presents a process for preparing a quantum dot array comprising at least the steps of: (a) providing a crystalline semiconductor substrate surface; (b) depositing quantum dots on the said substrate surface by a process of successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR). The steps can be repeated to build up a quantum dot superlattice structure.

  • PATTERNED ELECTRODE CONTACTS FOR OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICES
    Publication number: 20160343513
    Abstract: A micropillar array structure includes a substrate; and an array of micropillars provided on a surface of the substrate, wherein the micropillars are substantially transparent to light, and the height of micropillars is at most 500 ?m. The micropillar array structures can be used in optoelectronic devices such as solar cells.

  • Odorless toilet
    Patent number: 5016294
    Abstract: A toilet and toilet seat adapter unit which can be produced at a low cost yet which provides improved sealing around the toilet seat and which is easy to clean. The toilet seat adapter unit is disposed between the toilet seat and the upper surface of the rim of the toilet bowl of a conventional toilet. The toilet seat adapter unit includes a flat plastic plate having a shape and dimension generally conforming to those of the toilet seat. The lower surface of the flat plate is placed on the upper surface of the rim of the toilet bowl. A first set of plastic clips, affixed to the lower surface of the flat plate, fits around the outer edge of the rim of the toilet bowl and prevents the flat plate from slipping on the upper surface of the rim. A flexible plastic hose is looped around the upper surface of the flat plate and held in place by a second set of plastic clips. The hose communicates with a vacuum pump or exhaust fan.
