  • Publication number: 20120003939
    Abstract: A communication channel setting method and a communication channel selection method for an electronic device are provided. The communication channel setting method measures the interference between two communication protocols implemented on the same electronic device and stores threshold values and a look-up table obtained from the measurements in the electronic device. Next, the electronic device executes the channel selection method. The channel selection method selects usable channels of one of the two communication protocols according to the threshold values and the look-up table, thereby preventing or alleviating the interference between the communication protocols.

  • Publication number: 20100259811
    Abstract: A photovoltachromic device includes a photoelectrode, a counter electrode electrically connected to the photoelectrode, and an electrolyte layer disposed between the photoelectrode and the counter electrode. The photoelectrode includes a first transparent electrode, an electron-transport layer disposed on the first transparent electrode, and a sensitizing layer disposed on the electron-transport layer. The counter electrode includes a second transparent electrode and an electrochromic layer disposed on the second transparent electrode. The second transparent electrode contacts both of the electrolyte layer and the electrochromic layer thereby accelerating the response times for coloring and bleaching the photovoltachromic device.
