Patent number: 8895874Abstract: Thin indium-less “optically porous” layers adapted to replace traditional ITO layers are provided herein. A thin metalized film adapted to carry an electrical charge can include a dense pattern of small openings to allow the transmission of light to or from an underlying semiconductor material. The pattern of openings can create a regular or irregular grid pattern of low aspect ratio fine-line metal conductors. Creation of this optically porous metalized film can include the printing of a catalytic precursor material, such as palladium in solution in a pattern on a substrate, drying or curing the catalytic precursor, and the deposition of a thin layer of metal, such as copper on the dried precursor to form the final conductive and optically porous film.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2010Date of Patent: November 25, 2014Assignee: Averatek Corp.Inventors: Sunity Kumar Sharma, Alex Newsom Beavers, Jr., Thomas Furst

Patent number: 7802559Abstract: The hold-down device for a fuel injection device is distinguished by a particularly simple design that nonetheless permits a very effective holding down of a fuel injection valve. The fuel injection device includes at least one fuel injection valve, a receptacle bore for the fuel injection valve, and a connecting fitting of a fuel distributor line, the hold-down device being clamped between a shoulder of the fuel injection valve and an end surface of the connecting fitting. The hold-down device has a partially annular base element from which there extends, in a bent-away fashion, an axially flexible hold-down clip that has at least two webs, two oblique segments, and two support segments. The fuel injection valve is particularly suitable for use in fuel injection systems of mixture-compressing externally ignited internal combustion engines.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2005Date of Patent: September 28, 2010Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Thomas Fürst, Thilo Bolz
