Abstract: An apparatus is provided for detecting transmittance of a trench. The trench is located on an infrared-transmittable material, which can be a wafer. The wafer is obtained after a ditching process. An image of the wafer is fetched. The contrast of the image is greatly enhanced. The contrast-enhanced image is used for automated analysis of the transmittance of the trench. Accuracy of detecting the transmittance is improved. Hence, the present invention uses a simple structure to detect transmittance defects of the trench for ensuring goodness of the wafer.

Abstract: An array near-field high optical scattering material detection method is disclosed, which comprises steps of irradiating an input light onto a high scattering material to generate a diffuse reflection, a diffusion, and a transmission within the high scattering material; reading out an optical energy over different positions on the high scattering material, respectively; forming a two dimensional light intensity distribution data image according to the optical energy over different positions on the high scattering material, respectively; and analyzing an internal composition variation of the high scattering material according to the two dimensional light intensity distribution data image to obtain the internal composition data of the high scattering material.

Abstract: An active photocatalytic reactor configured to process biological culturing water with an accelerated process. Water to be used in a biological culturing system is stabilized with pollutants in the water reduced. The active photocatalytic reactor is less affected by outside environment while having faster activating speed. The active photocatalytic reactor can further be combined with a traditional filter to form a serial or parallel connection for more effectively purifying the culturing water with damage to the whole system avoided.

Abstract: A composite material which expands the range of light-absorption of an original constitution material, which is formed through two or more total oxides contacting and fixing to the oxygen reduced oxides with the same composition of materials as the total oxides. The composite material can excite the light-driven reaction to achieve an enlarged absorption range of the light band. In the contacting and fixing process of the composite material, a calcination process is not required, so that the process can be applied to a substrate which is plastic or not suitable for high-temperature heating.

Abstract: The method of the present invention comprises the following three steps: (1) Coating titanium oxide in the form of a membrane, nanometer-sized particles or powder onto a substrate to form a preliminary coating; (2) Adding a reducing agent and a dispersing agent to a metallic precursor to form a solution and then using an application device to apply a small amount of the solution to the preliminary coating; and (3) Using ultraviolet radiation on the substrate to reduce the metallic precursor to a metal via photochemical reaction and hence to form a composite coating. The method is simple and may be used for substrates in different sizes. In addition, in the method, the solution may be evenly spread out on the preliminary coating. The final composite coating may be used as the electrodes of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell.

Abstract: A photocatalytic reactor is disclosed herein, which includes a rotatable light guide plate and a light source. The light guide plate is coated with a photocatalyst film on a surface thereof. A light beam emitted from the light source can be coupled into and propagate inside the light guide plate to activate the photocatalysis of the photocatalyst film. Additionally, the rotation of the light guide plate further expedites the photocatalysis so as to enhance the reaction efficiency of the photocatalytic reactor.

Abstract: An optical fiber photocatalytic reactor is provided. The reactor comprises a reaction zone and multiple fibers located in the reaction zone. The fiber comprises a photocatalyst that is coated onto its surface via a thermal hydrolysis method. The adhesion between the fiber and the photocatalyst thereon is strong, and thus, the delamination of the photocatalyst film on the fiber can be prevented. Moreover, the optical fiber photocatalytic reactor is useful for the decomposition of nitrogen oxide which is one of air's most harmful contaminants. The present invention exhibits a high conversion of nitrogen oxide.
