Patents by Inventor Toan Cong Tran

Toan Cong Tran has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11048137
    Abstract: Thin-film devices, for example electrochromic devices for windows, and methods of manufacturing are described. Particular focus is given to methods of patterning optical devices. Various edge deletion and isolation scribes are performed, for example, to ensure the optical device has appropriate isolation from any edge defects. Methods described herein apply to any thin-film device having one or more material layers sandwiched between two thin film electrical conductor layers. The described methods create novel optical device configurations.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 2, 2017
    Date of Patent: June 29, 2021
    Assignees: View, Inc., Corning Incorporated
    Inventors: Tom Toan-Cong Tran, Brian D. Griedel, Robert T. Rozbicki, Todd William Martin

  • Patent number: 10205374
    Abstract: A time-varying current from a DC voltage-source, flows through a primary winding of a magnetic circuit containing permanent magnets, induces more inductive voltages across different windings. The windings are wrapped around the main, sub-magnetic paths of different forms and constructions of the Tran-generators. The invention when combined with any one of recovering the utilized electric charge, using the (hybrid) soft magnetic wires, applying the Voltage-Doubler circuits, and using the transfer of high-potential electric charge to generate more electric energy, make the tran-generators useful.
