  • Patent number: 9182789
    Abstract: An electronic device may have components such as button members, display cover glass layers, structures associated with connector ports, and other components. The components may have transparent and opaque structures. The transparent structures may be formed on top of the opaque structures. The transparent structures may have peripheral edges through which light may pass. To help prevent the appearance of the components from becoming degraded by the presence of dirt, at least some of the edge portions of the transparent structures may be covered with an opaque covering material. The opaque covering material may be formed from paint or sidewall structures that are formed as an integral part of the opaque structures.

  • Publication number: 20150069672
    Abstract: Methods for nanoimprint lithography using a deformable mold. Generally, the method includes a deformable mold fixed firmly onto a hollow mold holder around its full periphery is attached to top inner surface of the chamber and positioned underneath the transparent section. The central area of the mold is freely accessible from underneath through the opening of the mold holder. At beginning of the imprinting, the substrate with a layer of resist is positioned underneath the mold at a predetermined gap between them and a substrate is moved up to contact with the mold either under vacuum or under atmosphere. After consolidating the resist, the substrate is separated from the mold by either direct pull-down enabled by stage movement or deforming the mold enabled by differential pressure between the mold mini-chamber and the bulk volume of the chamber, or mixing of both.

  • Publication number: 20150011311
    Abstract: A client device executes a first interactive application that includes an embedded advertising player module. As the user interacts with the first interactive application, a condition is detected, causing the advertising player module to transmit a request for a second interactive application. The second interactive application may be developed to run in the same or different computing environment than the first interactive application. The second interactive application is executed by a remote server, and screen display outputs are generated in response. In response to the screen display outputs, the server generates video frames or rendering commands and streams the frames or commands to the advertising module to generate a display on the client device. The advertising player module receives interaction data for interacting with the second interactive application, and forwards such interaction data to the server.

  • Patent number: 8747092
    Abstract: The invention disclosed apparatuses and methods to do nanoimprint lithography using a deformable mold. Generally, the apparatus has a chamber with a transparent section on its top wall, which is capable of vacuuming and pressurizing. The deformable mold fixed firmly onto a hollow mold holder around its full periphery is attached to top inner surface of the chamber and positioned underneath the transparent section. The central area of the mold is freely accessible from underneath through the opening of the mold holder. An enclosed volume referring to mold mini-chamber is formed between the mold/holder and top wall of the chamber. Inside chamber, a stage assembly is installed. A chuck to vacuumly hold a substrate is mounted on top of the stage assembly. At beginning of the imprinting, the substrate with a layer of resist is positioned underneath the mold at a predetermined gap between them.

  • Patent number: 8632720
    Abstract: A mold for imprinting a patterned region by imprint lithography is provided with a peripheral groove around the patterned region. The groove is connected, as by channels through the mold, to a switchable source for gas removal to prevent bubbles and for the application of pressurized gas to separate the mold and substrate. In use, the mold is disposed adjacent the moldable surface and gas is withdrawn from the patterned region through the groove as the mold is pressed toward and into the moldable surface. At or near the end of the imprinting, the process is switched from removal of gas to the application of pressurized gas. The pressurized gas passes through the groove and separates or facilitates separation of the mold and the moldable surface.
