  • Patent number: 10520769
    Abstract: A multi-color emissive display is presented with printed light modifier structures. A fabrication method provides an emissive substrate with a plurality of wells formed in the emissions substrate top surface, and a plurality of emissive elements populating the wells. The method prints light modifier structures overlying the emissive elements. Some examples of light modifier material include light scattering materials, phosphors, and quantum dots. In one aspect, the emissive substrate wells have a first shape, with sidewalls and a first perimeter. Likewise, the emissive elements have the first shape, with sides and a second perimeter, less than the first perimeter. The light modifier structures fill the space between the emissive element sides and the well sidewalls with light modifier material. If the first shape is circular, the method prints the light modifier structures overlying the emissive elements in the circular shape having a first diameter defined by the well sidewalls.

    Abstract: A method for determining routes for a data circuit between source and destination terminals, where the circuit is formed via satellites traveling in respective non-geostationary orbits, and a total time during which the circuit is active is divided into time intervals. The determination of each route comprises, for each time interval, (i) selecting an uplink satellite to service the source terminal as an ingress node for the circuit, and (ii) determining a series of inter-satellite links connecting the uplink satellite to a downlink satellite servicing the destination terminal during the respective time interval, wherein the series of links is determined to be valid during the respective time interval. Each of the plurality of time intervals is of a duration based on a validity time, based on the satellites traveling in their respective orbits, for the inter-satellite link of all of the routes that is of the shortest duration.
