Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120224138Diffraction IOL with Micro-modulation - Mutifocal diffractive lenses are generally designed with concentric annular zones comprising blazed steps of equal area. Trifocal diffractive lenses differ in the intensity of light that they diffract into each of their three different powers. Usually, this light distribution has been adjusted by varying the step heights of the blazed steps within the annular zones. This invention discloses a trifocal diffractive lens wherein the equal area annular zones are further subdivided into two sub-zones wherein each sub-zone comprises a discrete blazed step. The sub-zones of this invention may be of unequal area. This allows the light distribution at its focal powers to be adjusted by varying not only the step heights of the blazed steps of the sub-zones, but also the relative areas of the sub-zones. The present invention allows for an increased flexibility in the design of multifocal diffractive lenses.09-06-2012

20100090311Growth of low dislocation density group-III nitrides and related thin-film structures - Methods of growing Group-III nitride thin-film structures having reduced dislocation density are provided. Methods in accordance with the present invention comprise growing a Group-III nitride thin-film material while applying an ion flux and preferably while the substrate is stationary or non-rotating substrate. The ion flux is preferably applied as an ion beam at a glancing angle of incidence. Growth under these conditions creates a nanoscale surface corrugation having a characteristic features size, such as can be measured as a wavelength or surface roughness. After the surface corrugation is created, and preferably in the same growth reactor, the substrate is rotated in an ion flux which cause the surface corrugation to be reduced. The result of forming a surface corrugation and then subsequently reducing or removing the surface corrugation is the formation of a nanosculpted region and polished transition region that effectively filter dislocations. Repeating such nanosculpted and polished regions advantageously provide significant reduction in dislocation density in thin-film structures.04-15-2010
