  • Patent number: 12074001
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of producing a plate arrangement comprising two plates (1, 2) which, at least in sections, have an intermediate space (4) located between them and a constant distance (d) to one another and/or are arranged parallel to one another and between which a fusible solder material (3, 3?) is arranged. The task of setting a defined distance between the plates as accurately as possible is solved according to the invention by creating a pressure difference between the intermediate space (4) between the plates and the outer space surrounding the plates in such a way that the pressure in the outer space is higher than in the intermediate space (4) and that the temperature of the solder material (3, 3?) is at least temporarily raised above its melting temperature during the existence of the pressure difference.

  • Patent number: 11917854
    Abstract: A display panel, a display device, and a driving method thereof are provided. A light-reflecting layer is disposed under a light-emitting layer of the display panel. When the display panel is under strong light, the light-emitting layer does not work, and the light-reflecting layer reflects natural light to achieve a full-color display. When the display panel is in low light or darkness, the light-emitting layer works, and the light-reflecting layer reflects the light emitted by the light-emitting layer to reduce a working intensity of the light-emitting layer and achieves the full-color display, thereby improving service life and visual effect of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs).
