Patent EP-1417639-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HEINRICH HARLEY KENT
IPC: G06K19/07
Filed: 2002-07-23
Abstract: An RFID tag (30) is powered both by an internal battery (22, 52) and passively by an interrogating RF field. As a result, the RFID tag can be passively powered after the internal battery has been depleted. More particularly, an embodiment of the RFID tag includes electronic circuitry to provide RFID functionality, and an energy storage device (14, 46) coupled to the electronic circuitry to provide an operational voltage thereto. A battery (22, 52) is operatively coupled to the energy storage device (14, 46) to charge the energy storage device. A rectified RF power source (12, 42) derived from an interrogating RF field is also operatively coupled to the energy storage device (14, 46) to charge the energy storage device. The rectified RF power source and the battery are electrically separated from each other. The energy storage device remains charged by the battery in the absence of the RF interrogating field while the battery has remaining capacity. After the battery has become depleted, the energy storage device is charged by the presence of the RF interrogating field.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des réflecteurs UV incorporés dans des sources (10) lumineuses à base de DEL à UV, qui réduisent la quantité d'émission de rayonnement UV aux alentours et augmente l'efficacité de ces sources. Les réflecteurs sont à base de particules nanométriques (28) dont le diamètre moyen est d'un dixième environ de la longueur d'onde de la lumière UV émise par la DEL (20) à UV, diffusée dans une matière (22) à mouler ou à couler entourant la DEL (20). D'autres réflecteurs UV sont des couches (72, 74) en série ayant, en alternance, des indices de réfraction élevés et bas. Chaque couche présente une épaisseur physique équivalant à un quart de la longueur d'onde divisé par l'indice de réfraction de la matière. Les textures nanométriques (110) formées sur une surface du réflecteur multicouche (70) réduisent davantage l'émission du rayonnement UV aux alentours. Les sources (10) lumineuses à base de DEL à UV comportent un tel réflecteur multicouche (70) disposé sur une structure d'encapsulation (30) d'une matière transparente (22) entourant un DEL (20) à UV, de particules (26) d'un phosphore excitable par UV diffusées dans la matière transparente (28).
