  • Mining unexplored chemistries for phosphors for high-color-quality whitelight-emitting diodes
    Patent number: 11532770
    Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) assembly includes an LED light source having a first light output with a characteristic spectrum and at least one phosphor through which the first light output passes. The phosphor includes the quaternary compound M-Li—Al—O, where M is Ba, Sr, or Ca, activated by Eu2+ or Ce3+.

  • Rapid solidification processing of oxide superconductors
    Patent number: 4937225
    Abstract: A superconducting oxide is melted in an oxygen-rich environment, rapidly solidified and annealed in an oxygen atmosphere. The resulting material has a fine grain structure, is chemically homogeneous, and has enhanced resistance to environmental degradation. The materials have well-defined superconducting characteristics as measured through the temperature dependence of their resistivities and diamagnetic susceptibilities.
