  • Publication number: 20250355141
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an augmented reality optical lens with eye protection function and a preparation method therefor, addressing the issues of heat dissipation and eye protection in head-mounted display devices. The lens uses silicon carbide as a substrate, with specific optical thin-film structures on both sides. When the device generates heat, a heating element is connected to the lens by means of a thermally conductive tape, and the heat is dissipated by utilizing a thermal conductivity of silicon carbide. Heat dissipation is enhanced through heat exchange with air and by regulating a direction of infrared radiation, preventing human eyes from thermal radiation. The present disclosure integrates heat dissipation and eye protection functions, features a simple process and high yield, meets the demands for miniaturization, long battery life, and eye protection in head-mounted devices, enhances user experience, and promotes the development of augmented reality technology devices.

  • Patent number: 11551822
    Abstract: A method of forming a water resistant boundary on a fissile material for use in a water cooled nuclear reactor is described. The method comprises mixing a powdered fissile material selected from the group consisting of UN and U3Si2 with an additive selected from oxidation resistant materials having a melting or softening point lower than the sintering temperature of the fissile material, pressing the mixed fissile and additive materials into a pellet, sintering the pellet to a temperature greater than the melting point of the additive. Alternatively, if the melting point of the oxidation resistant particles is greater than the sintering temperature of UN or U3Si2, then the oxidation resistant particles can have a particle size distribution less than that of the UN or U3Si2.
