Abstract: The present invention relates to a composite comprising a polymer and a blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC). The polymer is a crosslinked and non-liquid crystalline polymer, the BPLC is dispersed in said polymer, and the ratio of the polymer to the BPLC by weight (Wp/Wl) satisfies the relationship: 12:88<Wp/Wl?30:70, wherein the Wp is the weight of the polymer, and Wl is the weight of the BPLC. The composite exhibits a very wide temperature range of blue phase of the BPLC, and can respond to an electric field at a millisecond level. The composite has an excellent stability, and a lower viscosity, while a wide viewing angle and a low driving voltage can be achieved. The invention also provides a method for preparing the composite, and a LCD device comprising the composite. The method of the present invention is simple and efficient.

Abstract: One or more techniques or systems for controlling a profile for photo resist (PR) are provided herein. In some embodiments, a first shield layer is formed on a first PR layer and a second PR layer is formed on the first shield layer. A first window is formed within the second PR layer during a first exposure with a mask. A second window is formed within the first shield layer based on the first window. A third window is formed within the first PR layer during a second exposure without a mask. Because, the third window is formed while the first shield layer and the second PR layer are on the first PR layer, a profile associated with the first PR layer is controlled. Contamination during ion bombardment is mitigated due to the controlled profile.

Abstract: A HGA of the invention includes a slider, a load beam having a locating hole formed therein; a flexure to support the slider and connect with the load beam; a separate dimple element having a dimple to extend through the locating hole and support the flexure at a position corresponding to a center area of the slider.

Abstract: A head gimbal assembly, including a slider, a suspension having a slider holding plate, and an accessory plate mounted on the suspension having a dimple to partially hold the slider holder plate.

Abstract: A suspension includes a flexure, a load beam, and a deformation-resistant plate positioned between the flexure and the load beam. The deformation-resistant plate has a holding plate portion for holding a slider through the flexure and a pair of beam portions. The beam portions each have a bent portion bent in a direction approximately perpendicular to the holding plate portion such that the deformation-resistant plate is configured into a three-dimensional structure. The three-dimensional structure of the deformation-resistant plate advantageously resists structural deformation, thus further enables the suspension to possess stable pitch and roll stiffness as well as small yaw stiffness. This not only assists the suspension to have good static performance and improved shock performance, but also assists the slider to rotate easily and to have desirable displacement when the micro-actuator is excited. The present invention also discloses a HGA with the suspension and a drive unit with such HGA.
