  • Patent number: 11469077
    Abstract: A microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition device for diamond synthesis. A microwave source generates a microwave signal, and a resonant cavity receives a plurality of process gases. The microwave signal is spread in a first mode at a first waveguide. A mode conversion antenna converts the first mode of the microwave signal into a second mode that is spread at a second waveguide. A coupling conversion cavity receives and transmits the microwave signal in the second mode to the mode conversion antenna thereby converting the second mode of the microwave signal into a third mode. A medium viewport receives the microwave signal in the third mode and transmits to the resonant cavity which enables the microwave signal to excite and discharge the process gases to form spherical plasma, carbon containing groups and atomic hydrogen thereby depositing a diamond film on a seed.

  • Publication number: 20220153369
    Abstract: An electronic lock includes a casing, a locking component, an actuating component, a pushing component, a contacting component and an electric motor. The locking component can be switched between a lock position and an unlock position, and has a first inclined portion. The actuating component has a second inclined portion slidably abutting against the first inclined portion. The pushing component is connected to the actuating component and protrudes from the casing. The pushing component is pressed by an external force to move the locking component from the unlock position to the lock position via a relative movement between the first inclined portion and the second inclined portion. The contacting component movably contacts against the actuating component to constrain the locking component in the lock position. The electric motor is connected to the contacting component, and can separate the contacting component from the actuating component by a control command.

  • Publication number: 20220020829
    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.
