  • Patent number: 8158742
    Abstract: Deoxybenzoin-phosphonate and other copolymer compounds, compositions and related methods.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 3, 2011
    Date of Patent: April 17, 2012

    Inventors: Todd Emrick, Thangamani Ranganathan, E. Bryan Coughlin, Richard J. Farris, Joseph Zilberman
  • Publication number: 20110198544
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention disclosed herein provide for adjusting the electrical response of a voltage switchable dielectric material by incorporating one or more nanophase materials. Various aspects provide for a VSDM having improved electrical and/or physical properties. In some cases, a VSDM may have improved (e.g., lower) leakage current at a given voltage. A VSDM may have improved resistance to ESD events, and may have improved resistance to degradation associated with protecting against an ESD event.
