Abstract: According to an example, a resin, a carrier liquid, and a pearlescent pigment may be mixed to form a liquid electrophotographic ink.

Abstract: A method of electro-photographic printing comprises applying a background voltage to a photo imaging plate using a charge roller that moves relative to the photo imaging plate, and varying the applied background voltage as the roller moves relative to the photo imaging plate, wherein the background voltage is varied in a region of the photo imaging plate where no ink is to be transferred.

Abstract: An electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC) and method for manufacturing thereof. The ELDC includes at least one capacitor cell with two parallel current collectors, two opposite polarity electrodes, a separator, and a rigid dielectric frame. Each electrode is disposed on a respective current collector and impregnated with aqueous electrolyte. The frame is disposed along the perimeter on the surface of a current collector and enclosing the electrodes. The two electrodes of an individual cell are configured asymmetrically, such as being composed of different materials, having different weights, and/or having different thicknesses. The electrode material may include: activated carbon, a transitional metal oxide, a conductive polymer, and/or graphene.

Abstract: An electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC) and method for manufacturing thereof. The ELDC includes at least one capacitor cell with two parallel current collectors, two opposite polarity electrodes, a separator, a rigid dielectric frame, and at least one evacuation mechanism. Each electrode is disposed on a respective current collector, and impregnated with aqueous electrolyte. The frame is disposed along the perimeter on the surface of a current collector and enclosing the electrodes. The evacuation mechanism removes superfluous fluid material from the capacitor cell interior. The evacuation mechanism may be a compartment in the frame, operative to collect residual electrolyte that seeps out from the electrodes, or a capillary formed within the frame and extending into a portion of the electrode, the capillary composed of a porous hydrophobic material and operative to evacuate discharged gases from the electrodes out of the EDLC.

Abstract: A method and a device permit scanned probe microscopes with a non-optical feedback mechanism (1.2), such as a tuning fork, to be used in air or in liquid. The embodiments of the invention require geometric construction of the scanning device that can incorporate the non-optical feedback mechanism in a way that does not obstruct geometrically essentially any lens (1.3) from above or below and permits free access to the probe that is interacting with the sample. In one such embodiment, a scanner (1.1) in x, y and z can move the probe with a structure in which either the non-optical feedback mechanism is in the liquid or in the air and can use either a cantilevered or straight probe. The system can also be constructed with multiple independent scanned probe microscopy probes that can work in liquid and/or in air.
