  • Publication number: 20190320528
    Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a method of creating patterned metallic circuits (e.g., silver circuits) on a substrate (e.g., a ceramic substrate). A porous metal interlayer (e.g., porous nickel) is applied to the substrate to improve wetting and adhesion of the patterned metal circuit material to the substrate. The substrate is heated to a temperature sufficient to melt the patterned metal circuit material but not the porous metal interlayer. Spreading of molten metal circuit material on the substrate is controlled by the porous metal interlayer, which can itself be patterned, such as having a defined circuit pattern. Thick-film silver or other metal circuits can be custom designed in complicated shapes for high temperature/high power applications. The materials designated for the circuit design allows for a low-cost method of generating silver circuits other metal circuits on a ceramic substrate.

  • Patent number: 10410559
    Abstract: The persistence of vision rotary display device is a display that presents 2-D and 3-D images that appear to float in midair through the timely energization of a plurality of LEDs that travel in circular paths on a rotor. The rotor is driven by a motor mounted in a stator; the stator may be mounted to a fixed structure or held in a user's hand. The device achieves a resolution that is not limited by the physical size of the LEDs by mounting LEDs on multiple arms with a different offset from the center on each arm. Control electronics in the rotor map the image to polar format and adjust the timing of the LEDs to compensate for the fact that they may be on different arms. The device may present moving images by changing the image at a predetermined frame rate.
