  • Patent number: 9803294
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for preparing three dimensional (3D) nanofibers (blended or coaxial) materials by electrospinning. An automatic nanofiber collector device is used to control the porosity, pore size, crystallinity, geometry, the layer number and thickness of formed nanofibers. The automatic nanofiber collector device includes: (1) a collector platform; (2) a non-conductive device used to fix the collector device; (3) a plurality of electro-conductive wires or needles being pierced through the collector platform with various heights, and (4) the ends of the needles (at bottom) are wired and controlled by a microcontroller, providing forward, stand and backward movements for attached needles. The desired 3D nanofiber scaffold structures can be tailored by the micro-stepping programmable motor controller by changing the pattern and velocity of needle movement, generalized or selective needles movements, as well as intermittent versus continuous movement.

  • Patent number: 9537506
    Abstract: An electronic device with a plurality of keys which correspond to a plurality of standard voltages respectively comprises a voltage generation module, a detection module, storage, an acquiring module, a comparison module, and an extraction module. The voltage generation module with an initial voltage decreases the initial voltage to the standard voltage corresponding to the pressed key. The detection module detects whether the current voltage of the voltage generation module is equal to the initial voltage. The storage stores the current voltage as a reference voltage when the current voltage is not equal to the initial voltage. The acquiring module acquires a current voltage of the voltage generation module after a predetermined time. The comparison module compares the acquired current voltage with the reference voltage. When the acquired current voltage is equal to the reference voltage, the extraction module executes an operation corresponding to the reference voltage.

  • Patent number: 9530930
    Abstract: Vertical high power LEDs are the technological choice for the application of general lighting due to their advantages of high efficiency and capability of handling high power. However, the technologies of vertical LED fabrication reported so far involve the wafer-level metal substrate substitution which may cause large stress due to the mismatch between metal substrate and LED layer. Moreover, the metal substrate has to be diced to separate LED dies which may cause metal contamination and thus increase the leakage current. These factors will lower the yield of LED production and increase the cost as well. The present invention is to disclose a novel method for the fabrication of GaN vertical high power LEDs and/or a novel method for the fabrication of GaN vertical high power LEDs which is compatible to mass production conditions. The novelty of the invention is that the island metal plating is conducted with the help of pattern formation techniques.
