  • Patent number: 4289842
    Abstract: Novel acrylate copolymer materials function as electron-beam resists with enhanced sensitivity and enhanced plasma etch resistance. The method of using such materials as an electron-beam resist is also described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 27, 1980
    Date of Patent: September 15, 1981
    Assignee: Eastman Kodak Company

  • Patent number: 4236098
    Abstract: A color imaging device is comprised of means for sensing radiation comprising a planar array of charge-handling semiconductor photosensors, preferably at least one of the photosensors having a radiation sensing area with at least one dimension less than about 100 microns, and superimposed thereon, filter means for controlling access of radiation to the sensing means. The filter means is in micro-registration with the array of photosensors and comprises a transparent mordant layer with a plurality of radiation intercepting means defining a planar array of filter elements. The filter area of each intercepting means contains at least one mordantable dye which absorbs radiation in at least one portion of the spectrum and transmits radiation in at least one other portion of the spectrum. The color imaging device comprises an interlaid pattern having at least two sets of intercepting means, the first set having a different radiation absorption and transmission characteristic from that of the second set.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4139390
    Abstract: A presensitized printing plate contains a leuco dye and an organic azide to provide a print-out image when the presensitized plate is exposed to light. Development of the plate may remove the print-out image but provides a relief image which may be dyed or pigmented. The light sensitive unsaturated materials used to provide the relief image include photocrosslinkable unsaturated polymers containing the moiety ##STR1## as part of the polymer backbone.
