  • Patent number: 12618874
    Abstract: An apparatus for non-contact current and voltage composite measurement includes: a current signal detection device, a voltage signal detection device, a zero-crossing detection circuit, and a control unit. The current signal detection device generates a current-induced electromotive force based on current flowing on the transmission line to be measured when there is current-voltage passing through the transmission line to be measured; the voltage signal detection device generates a voltage-induced electromotive force based on voltage flowing on the transmission line to be measured when there is current-voltage passing through the transmission line to be measured. The zero-crossing detection circuit performs zero-crossing detection on the current-induced electromotive force and the voltage-induced electromotive force to determine the phase difference between them.

  • Patent number: 12342711
    Abstract: A display substrate and a mask plate assembly includes a base substrate, a pixel defining layer, a functional layer, a cathode layer, and a covering layer that are sequentially stacked in a direction away from the base substrate, wherein the size of orthographic projection of the functional layer on the base substrate is jointly determined by the size of a display area and a first minimum distance. The first minimum distance is the minimum distance in a direction from the display area to a non-display area and between the boundary of the display area and the boundary of the functional layer, and is determined by a first shadow width of the functional layer extending from the display area to the non-display area. The first shadow width is the maximum width of a shadow area formed within a preset region when the functional layer is vapor deposited in the preset region.
