  • Patent number: 9541527
    Abstract: A magnetic device with a three-dimensional wave structure is provided, which contains magnetic elements and a signal receiver. The magnetic element is nano/micron structure with magnetic anisotropy. The magnetic element is formed on a substrate with three-dimensional wave structure. When a magnetic substance approaches to the magnetic element, the magnetic substance produces a corresponding magnetoresistance signal for the magnetic element. Through the measurement of the magnetoresistance of the three-dimensional wave structure, and the presence or absence of the magnetic substance can be detected. An external magnetic field is used to change the magnetization configuration of the three-dimensional wave structure to capture the magnetic substance by adsorbing the magnetic substance to a magnetic pole of the three-dimensional wave structure.

  • Patent number: 7682883
    Abstract: A manufacturing method of a thin film transistor array substrate incorporating the manufacture of a photo-sensor is provided. In the manufacturing method, a photo-sensing dielectric layer is formed between a transparent conductive layer and a metal electrode for detecting ambient light. Since the transparent conductive layer is adopted as an electrode, the ambient light can pass through the transparent conductive layer and get incident light into the photo-sensing dielectric layer. Therefore, the sensing area of the photo-sensor can be enlarged and the photo-sensing efficiency is improved. In addition, the other side of the photo sensitive dielectric layer may be a metal electrode. The metal electrode can block the backlight from getting incident into the photo-sensing dielectric layer and thus reduce the background noise. A manufacturing method of a liquid crystal display panel adopting the aforementioned thin film transistor array substrate is also provided.
