  • Patent number: 7817219
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display device is disclosed, which comprises an upper substrate, a lower substrate, and a liquid crystal layer. The lower substrate has several pixel electrodes, metal lines, and switch elements thereon. Each switch element comprises a source electrode, a drain electrode, a gate electrode, and an opening between the source electrode and the drain electrode. A passivation layer covering the surface of the source electrode and the drain electrode forms two inclined planes separately on two sides. The two inclined planes face each other and are locating on a kink or step of the source electrode and drain electrode. The inclined planes also contact each other at the upper side of the opening. The inclinations of the inclined planes to the lower substrate are in a range from 5 to 50 degrees.

  • Patent number: 7792006
    Abstract: The present invention provides an optical head with a single or multiple sub-wavelength light beams, which can be used in arenas such as photolithography, optical storage, optical microscopy, to name a few. The present invention includes a transparent substrate, a thin film, and a surface structure with sub-wavelength surface profile. The incident light transmits through the transparent substrate, forms a surface plasma wave along the sub-wavelength aperture located within the thin film, and finally re-emits through spatial coupling with the sub-wavelength profile of the surface structure. As the coupled re-emitting light beam or light beams can maintain the waist less than that of the diffraction limit for a few micrometers out of the surface with sub-wavelength profile in many cases, this invention can have applications ranging from micro or nano manufacturing, metrology, and manipulation by using light beams with waist smaller than the diffraction limit.

  • Patent number: 7705958
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: forming multiple spacers having a cavity on the upper substrate or on the lower substrate; injecting adhesives or binders in the cavities of the spacers; and curing the adhesives or the binders in the cavities to bind the upper substrate and the lower substrate. Through the method illustrated above, the strength for combining these two substrates can be enhanced. Moreover, the uniformity of the gap inside the LCD panel, and the gravity mura resulted from the gravity can be improved. Therefore, the lifetime of the LCD can be extended.

  • Publication number: 20100046903
    Abstract: An optic film has a surface on which a plurality of rib-like micro light guides is formed. Each micro light guide includes a plurality of ridges, which are of different heights and show variation of height. Either a high ridge or a low ridge of the micro light guide is made a continuous left-and-right wavy configuration and/or a continuous up-and-down height-variation configuration. The high ridge has a top that is rounded, whereby by means of the rounded top of the high ridge, the high ridge of the optic film is protected from abrasion and wear or is prevented from causing damage to other parts of an optic device. Thus, protection of the optic film and other parts can be realized.

  • Publication number: 20100046248
    Abstract: An optic film includes a substrate and a condensation layer. The substrate has a light incidence surface and a light emission surface. The light incidence surface is treated to form a roughened frosted surface. The condensation layer is arranged on the light emission surface of the substrate and forms prism-like micro-structures. With the light incidence surface of the substrate being directly subjected to knurling or sand blasting to form the roughened frosted surface, when light enters the substrate through the light incidence surface, the light is diffused first by the frosted surface of the light incidence surface and is then subjected to condensation by the condensation layer, whereby when the optic film is applied to a backlight module, the optic film can effect both diffusion and condensation of light, so that the number of optic films used in the backlight module can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 7646021
    Abstract: A TFT array substrate includes a substrate, a patterned first metallic layer, a patterned stack layer, a patterned dielectric layer, a patterned transparent conductive layer, and a patterned third metallic layer. Elements of each TFT in the TFT array substrate are arranged vertically, so that the TFT array substrate has relatively small fabrication area and is operable with a high conducting current. Further, the storage capacitance can be enhanced by enclosing or sandwiching the second metallic layer with the common lines and the transparent electrodes. In such a way, pixel flashing caused by those coupled signals can be reduced, thus promoting displaying quality thereof.
