Abstract: A method of wafer-level manufacturing of an optical package (285) is disclosed. The method comprises forming an apertured substrate (170; 405) by a process of vacuum injection molding, each aperture (175A; 175B) in the apertured substrate configured to support an optical element (225; 420; 425). The method also comprises coupling the apertured substrate to a further substrate (255) comprising optical devices (260, 265) aligned with the apertures in the apertured substrate. Also disclosed is optical package (285, 600) formed according to the method and an apparatus, such as a smartphone, comprising the optical package.

Abstract: A thermoplastic composite material has an inner layer material and at least one layer of outer layer material. The inner layer material is a core layer that contains fiber bundles, a first thermoplastic resin and a first auxiliary agent; and the at least one layer of outer layer material wraps the core layer and is a resin layer comprising a second thermoplastic resin and an optional second auxiliary agent. The fiber bundles extend continuously from one end of the core layer to the opposite end thereof. The inner layer-outer layer composite structure, can effectively improves the processing performance of the thermoplastic composite material and the lubricity between fibers and resin matrixes during injection molding, and improves the fluidity of the fibers in a resin matrix melt.

Abstract: A process for the production of a catalyst comprising the steps of: dissolving the requisite quantities of copper nitrate and nickel nitrate in de-ionised water to provide a sub-0.30 molar aqueous solution of copper nitrate and nickel nitrate together in the ratio required; providing an ammoniacal solution by adding concentrated aqueous solution of ammonia in a quantity equal to between six and ten times the quantity required to realise both a 1:6 molar ratio for Cu2+ to ammonia and a 1:6 molar ratio for Ni2+ to ammonia; loading gamma alumina with 1 to 30% w/w of copper and nickel in a weight ratio of nickel to copper of 1:5 to 2:1 by suspending the requisite quantity of gamma alumina in said ammoniacal solution to achieve the required loading of copper and nickel; stirring the resulting gamma alumina suspension for at least 4 h at room temperature; then the volatile components evaporate under ambient conditions leaving dry loaded gamma alumina, which is calcined at a temperature of at least 260° C.

Abstract: A timing controller for a panel display system includes: an image signal receiver that receives an image signal; an overdrive circuit that receives and converts the image signal from the image signal receiver according to successive first frame data and second frame data in the image signal; an image signal transmitter that receives the converted image signal from the overdrive circuit and transmits the same to a display panel; a memory; and a memory interface unit. In a normal read/write period, the memory interface unit receives the first frame data from the overdrive circuit and stores the same in the memory, and fetches the first frame data from the memory when the overdrive circuit receives the second frame data in the image signal and transmits the same to the overdrive circuit. The memory interface unit further obtains sampling results to generate a preferred delay phase.
