Patents by Inventor Tong Lai Chen

Tong Lai Chen 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).

  • TRANSPARENT ELECTRODE BASED ON COMBINATION OF TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE OXIDES, METALS AND OXIDES
    Publication number: 20130040516
    Abstract: The invention disclosure relates to an electrode comprising a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) and an ultra thin metal film (UTMF) deposited on the TCO. In addition the UTMF is oxidized or covered by an oxide layer. In this way the underlying TCO is protected/compatible to other materials and the loss of transparency is reduced.

  • MULTILAYER METALLIC ELECTRODES FOR OPTOELECTRONICS
    Publication number: 20120260983
    Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode that includes a substrate and a layered structure having an electrically conductive film in contact with at least one ultra thin metal film, wherein the two films are of different materials and the electrically conductive film is one of Cu, Au, Ag, Al and the ultra thin metal film is one of Ni, Cr, Ti, Pt, Ag, Au, Al and their mixtures. The electrode is particularly useful for optoelectronic devices and shows good conductivity, transparency and stability.
