Patent number: 10001889Abstract: A mesh electrode, a sensing device and an electrode layer are provided, in which the sensing device includes the mesh electrode. The mesh electrode is formed by a plurality of grid lines intersecting and connected to each other. The grid line has a bottom surface and a cross-section, and the cross-section is perpendicular to the bottom surface and has at least one curved portion. The electrode layer includes a plurality of conducting lines. The conducting lines have at least three line widths or at least three spaces. An appearing probability of each line width may be identical in the electrode layer. An appearing probability of each space may be identical in the electrode layer. The conducting line has a bottom surface and a cross-section, and the cross-section is perpendicular to the bottom surface and has at least one curved portion.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2015Date of Patent: June 19, 2018Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Heng-Tien Lin, Chun-Ting Liu, Shu-Yi Chang, Su-Tsai Lu, Kuo-Hua Tseng, Sheng-Feng Chung, Chen-Kun Chen

Patent number: 9811222Abstract: A sensing structure includes a sensing unit, a periphery circuit, and a connecting circuit. The connecting circuit connecting the sensing unit and the periphery circuit includes a connecting pattern. In an embodiment, the connecting pattern has at least two line widths. The line width of a part of the connecting pattern connecting the periphery circuit is greater than the line width of a part of the connecting pattern connecting the sensing unit. In an embodiment, the connecting pattern includes a mesh pattern having at least two mesh densities. The mesh density of a part of the mesh pattern connecting the periphery circuit is greater than the mesh density of a part of the mesh pattern connecting the sensing unit. In an embodiment, the connecting circuit includes lines between and connecting a single sensing series of the sensing unit and a periphery wire of the periphery circuit.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2015Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Bao-Shun Yau, Sheng-Feng Chung, Su-Tsai Lu, Yu-Ling Hsieh, Cheng-Yi Shih, Shu-Yi Chang, Kuo-Hua Tseng, Heng-Tien Lin

Patent number: 7629607Abstract: Disclosed is an organic non-volatile memory (ONVM) material including nanoparticles evenly dispersed in a first polymer. The nanoparticles have a metal core covered by a second polymer to form a core/shell structure, and the first polymer has a higher polymerization degree and molecular weight than the second polymer. The ONVM material of the invention has high uniformity, thereby stabilizing the electric properties of the memory device, such as increasing rewrite counts, increasing data retention time, reducing driving voltage, reducing write current, and enhancing current on/off ratio.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2007Date of Patent: December 8, 2009Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Jun-Rong Chen, Heng-Tien Lin, Jui-Fen Fan, Gue-Wuu Hwang, Ching Ting, Yi-Jen Chan
