Abstract: A multi-phase electric machine having plurality of windings are mounted on the stator core that define a plurality of phases wherein, for each phase, the windings include at least two parallel windings, each winding comprising a pair of continuous wires which are connected in series. For each pole, the parallel windings fill one or more central slots and two outer slots. Each winding fills each central slot twice the number of times that the winding fills each outer slot to thereby define a slot fill ratio of 2:1 between central slots and outer slots and wherein each wire of the wire pair forming a winding fills the slots in a ratio that differs from the slot fill ratio. Each of the parallel windings include a phase shift end loop that shift the windings from one outer slot to the other outer slot.

Abstract: Optical stacks are described. In particular, optical stacks including reflecting-absorbing polarizers and quarter-wave plates are disclosed. The optical core of the optical stack—which includes a reflecting-absorbing polarizer with at least one skin layer including polarizing dye—may be co-extruded or co-stretched.

Abstract: An electric machine including a stator and rotor. The rotor has a core wherein each pole includes first and second axially extending magnet slots positioned in an outwardly opening V-shape. Permanent magnets are positioned in the magnet slots. The magnet slots define first and second opposing major edges wherein the first major edge is disposed nearer the outer radial perimeter of the rotor core. First and second opposing minor edges extend between the major edges and the first minor edge is disposed nearer the outer radial perimeter. The first and second slots are reflectively symmetrical with one symmetrical aberration. The symmetrical aberration being formed by an axially extending non-symmetric gap defined by the first major edge of the second magnet slot proximate the first minor edge. Demagnetization may be reduced by operating the machine with the second magnet slot trailing the first magnet slot during rotation of the rotor.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes nanostructured light extraction color filter laminates, and articles and methods of using nanostructured light extraction color filter laminates for the fabrication of an OLED including a nanostructure, using lamination techniques. Nanostructured OLED devices can exhibit enhanced light extraction efficiency. The methods involve transfer and/or replication of a film, layer, or coating in order to form a nanostructured surface that is in optical contact with the emitting surface of an OLED in, for example, a top emitting or a bottom emitting active matrix OLED (TE-AMOLED or BE-AMOLED) device. The articles having enhanced light extraction efficiency can be of particular use in color-by-white (CBW) OLED displays, which use white-light spectrum OLEDs with a color filter array.

Abstract: An electric machine including a rotor operably coupled with a stator having a plurality of stator windings. Each stator winding defines has a plurality of axially extending segments disposed within the stator slots and a plurality of end turn segments. At least one first axially extending segment defining a first cross sectional area and at least two second axially extending segments defining a smaller second cross sectional area are disposed in each of the stator slots. At least one of the plurality of end turn segments conductively couples a single first axially extending segment in a first one of the plurality of slots to at least two second axially extending segments in a second one of the plurality of slots. In some embodiments, the larger first axially extending segments are all disposed radially outwardly of the smaller second axially extending segments. The windings may be formed using hairpin conductors.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to emissive displays and, in particular, to emissive displays that include a top surface (111) that has a diffusely reflective inactive surface (116) adjacent a diffusely reflective emissive surface (114). The emissive display further includes a polarization selective antireflection film component (120) that includes a linear absorbing polarizer (126), a reflective polarizer (124), and a quarter-wave retarder (122), and is positioned separated from the top surface. The disclosure also relates to issues arising from these antireflection film components, such as brightness efficiency loss and image degradation such as pixel blur. The enhanced antireflection stack performs well in commercial OLED displays, with a 20% or greater brightness gain, a 30% or greater ambient light reflectance gain and no visually apparent image degradation.
