  • Publication number: 20160274434
    Abstract: A conductive assembly for changing a color of a lens is revealed herein to comprise first and second conductive devices separately disposed at an upper front and lower rear end faces of an electrochromic lens, and an electrical connection device connected with the first and second conductive devices. The first conductive device has a first indium tin oxide (ITO) conductive part on a surface of the electrochromic lens and a conductive part on the first ITO conductive part for connection to the electrical connection device. The second conductive device has a second indium tin oxide (ITO) conductive part on a surface of the electrochromic lens, an inner conductive part on the second ITO conductive part, an insulating part on the inner conductive part and an outer conductive part on the insulating part for connection to the inner conductive part and the electrical connection device.

  • Publication number: 20090036563
    Abstract: A shape-memory polymer foam is disclosed, which is formed by kneading a shape-memory copolyester with a polymeric material having a relatively lower crystallinity in a weight ratio of 15:85 to 85:15 and then conducting a foaming process. The shape-memory copolyester is a random copolymer formed from a dicarboxylic acid mixture and a diol in excess through esterfication and polycondensation. The dicarboxylic acid mixture includes 30-99 mol % of an aromatic dicarboxylic acid and 70-1 mol % of a straight aliphatic dicarboxylic acid of C4-C10. The diol includes a straight aliphatic diol of C2-C10.

  • Patent number: 7024072
    Abstract: A fiber-optic tunable filter and an intensity modulator respectively includes: a fiber having a polished surface and an evanescent-field; and a photonic crystal having plural cavities and a filler filled therein and attached to the polished surface, wherein the plural cavities and the filler decide a photonic band-gap of the photonic crystal and the photonic band-gap is adjusted to reflect a light with a specific wavelength through the evanescent interaction with the photonic crystal material. Based on the fiber side-polishing technique, all kinds of fiber active and passive devices are able to be manufactured easily, especially for a high speed intensity modulator using an EO (Electro-Optic) polymer as the filler.
