Marcel R. Bohmer has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10186645
    Abstract: Systems for LED illumination products. Solutions to the problems attendant to delivering a white-appearing LED product without diminishing efficiency of white light generation are presented. Devices are designed and manufactured that include a specially-formulated off-state white-appearing layer to the LED apparatus. The composition of the specially-formulated off-state white-appearing layer is tuned for high-efficiency during the on-state.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6052160
    Abstract: The display device is furnished with a channel plate (39) comprising channels (30, 30', 30") containing an ionizable gas (33), and the walls of the channels (30, 30', 30") being provided with electrodes (31, 32) for selectively generating a plasma discharge of the ionizable gas (33) during operation. The display device further comprises an electro-optical layer (35) of a material having an optical property which is governed by the discharge state of the plasma discharge. The display device is characterized in that at least one of the electrodes (31, 32) is furnished with a layer (37) comprising particles of a sputter-resistant material having an average diameter .ltoreq.2.5 .mu.m, preferably .ltoreq.1.5 .mu.m. The particles are preferably composed of rare-earth borides (for example LaB.sub.6) or ruthenium oxide.

  • Patent number: 5559853
    Abstract: An X-ray examination includes a filter for limiting the dynamic range of an X-ray image formed on an X-ray detector by irradiation of an object, for example a patient to be examined, by means of X-rays. The filter has a number of electrodes and grains or powder particles containing an X-ray absorbing material and suspended in a suspension liquid. When a voltage is applied to electrodes, X-ray absorbing material in the suspension will move to the excited electrodes under the influence of electrophoresis. A distribution with a desired X-ray absorption profile is adjusted by application of a suitable voltage pattern. The electrodes may have dimensions of, for example 0.5.times.0.5 mm, enabling an X-ray absorption profile to be obtained with a high spatial resolution. The X-ray absorption profile can be changed within a brief period of time, for example within one second, by changing the voltage pattern on the electrodes.
