Patent EP-1484742-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LEE SANG-JIN
IPC: H04N9/64
Filed: 2004-05-10
Abstract: A color signal processing apparatus for calculating a control vector for driving a multi-primary display (MPD) corresponding to an input color signal. The color signal processing apparatus comprises an XYZ color signal conversion unit (110) for converting an input color signal into a device-independent color signal and determining a color gamut of the MPD based on a Forward Model. The color gamut is divided into a plurality of pyramids, and intermediate values based on the plurality of pyramids are calculated by parallel calculating means (Q 1 -Q N ). A set of intermediate values based on predetermined physical restrictions are selected by a restriction control checking unit (130). The control vector is calculated, based on the restricted values, by a control vector arrangement unit (150). This arrangement does not require a look-up table for determining the color gamut and thereby avoids quantization errors.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multilayer material deposited by ALD. A multi-layer structure of a high refractive index material is deposited on a substrate using ALD at a temperature below about 450 °C. Advantageous results are obtained when a high refractive index material A is coated with another material B after a certain thickness of material A has been achieved. Thus, the B barrier layer stops the tendency for material A to crystallize. The amorphous structure gives rise to less optical loss. Further, the different stress nature of materials A and B may be utilized to achieve a final optical material with minimal stress. The thickness of each material B layer is less than that of the adjacent A layer(s). The total effective refractive index of the high refractive index material A+B being shall be greater than 2.20 at a wavelength of 600 nm. Titanium oxide and aluminium oxide are preferred A and B materials. The structure is useful for optical coatings.

Abstract: A porous fluid flow-diffusing structure for enhancing rapid confirmatory immunological testing ("RCIT") in, for example, a clinical, point-of-care setting using flow-based devices such as non-lateral flow RCIT devices containing releasable amounts of buffer solution or devices containing lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay test strips. The flow-diffusive structure is located on a fluid path between a conjugate source and a reaction membrane. Flow through the diffusive structure causes a delay and additional mixing of the fluid so that it exhibits a more uniformly high degree of first affinity binding before flowing onto the reaction membrane. Various exemplary embodiments provide one or more diffusive structures that can be pretreated with mixture enhancing chemicals such as surfactants.
