| 20090046368 | Narrow Band Omnidirectional Reflectors And Their Use As Structural Colors - Disclosed is a multilayer structure wherein a first layer of a first material having an outer surface and a refracted index between 2 and 4 extends across an outer surface of a second layer having a refractive index between 1 and 3. The multilayer stack has a reflective band of less than 200 nanometers when viewed from angles between 0° and 80° and can be used to reflect a narrow range of electromagnetic radiation in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared spectrum ranges. In some instances, the reflection band of the multilayer structure is less than 100 nanometers. In addition, the multilayer structure can have a quantity defined as a range to mid-range ratio percentage of less than 2%. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20090044457 | Rear Door Assembly For A Motor Vehicle - A rear door assembly for a motor vehicle includes an outer door panel and an inner panel. The inner panel is fixedly secured to the inner surface of the outer door panel. The inner panel has a main frame having a generally transversely extending opening and a frame member fixedly secured to the main frame. The frame member extends between opposite sides of the opening in the main frame and extends along a bottom edge of the window opening. The frame member has a transversely extending upper flange and a lower flange spaced apart from the upper flange. The frame member has a main wall extending between the upper and lower flanges and forming a generally U-shaped cross section therewith. The flanges are directly fixedly secured to the inner surface of the outer panel and forming a transversely extending support beam therewith. | 02-19-2009 |
