Abstract:
An LCD device (300) includes a first substrate (30), a second substrate (40) disposed parallel to the first substrate, and a liquid crystal layer (33) having liquid crystal molecules interposed between the substrates. The first substrate includes a transparent plate (31), a color filter layer (38) formed on the transparent plate opposite to the second substrate, and a common electrode (39) formed on the color filter layer. The common electrode has a plurality of protruding portions (391) protruding toward the second substrate. The second substrate has pixel electrodes (35) opposite to the first substrate. The pixel electrodes define slits (351) therebetween. This configuration ensures to generate a symmetric electric field (E) distributing in several directions between the common and pixel electrodes so as to form several domains.
Abstract:
A color filter (100) includes pixels (110), each pixel including three sub-pixels (111), and each sub-pixel including a reflection section (R) and a transmission section (T). In each pixel, the transmission sections and the reflection sections are alternately arranged along each row of the sections and along each column of the sections. The alternating arrangement of the transmission sections and the reflection sections of the pixels can provide a uniform pattern of hue balance over the whole display area. Furthermore, in various embodiments described, different optical thicknesses of the transmission sections and the reflection sections (or color layers of the reflection sections) can provide uniform hue over the whole display area.

Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium of the perpendicular type, for a disc drive. The magnetic recording material includes a Cobalt alloy layer interspersed with a noble metal layer. The initial graded material is paramagnetic to increase to the magnetic properties of perpendicular recording media into increase the signal to noise ratio. The final recording layer has 8-20 alternating multilayer of the Cobalt alloy and a noble metal.
Abstract:
In a method of vacuum packaging a MEMS device, at least one MEMS device is attached on a substrate. A solder preform is printed on the substrate at the perimeter surrounding the substrate. A lid is attached to the solder preform wherein the lid provides a cavity enclosing the at least one MEMS device. A first reflowing step reflows the solder at a first temperature, partially sealing the lid/substrate interface and at the same time does the outgassing and baking procedure for the packaging. Flux is applied onto an outer ring of the solder preform and a second step reflows the solder at a second temperature, completely sealing the lid/substrate interface and providing a vacuum cavity enclosing the at least one MEMS device.

A device having an air bearing surface, the device including a writer portion having an air bearing surface at the air bearing surface of the device; and an overcoat layer disposed on at least a portion of the air bearing surface of the writer portion, wherein the overcoat includes a material having a magnetic moment of at least about 0.1 Tesla (T).
Abstract:
An umbrella configured in the shape of a cap, having a main canopy from which extends about a portion of the lower perimeter a brim canopy when in open extended position. The brim canopy folds upwardly against the main canopy as it is closed. A fabric head band is suspended from the brim canopy. A head engageable shaft stabilizes the umbrella cap on the wearer.
