Also provided is a composite material including a phosphor material of at least one of among hafnium oxide, niobium oxide, tantalum oxide, zinc oxide or zirconium oxide as a conformal coating on a porous substrate, the composite characterized as exhibiting photoluminescence at room temperature and as having a broad emission spectrum having a width at ½ maximum greater than 80 nm. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090233080 | Porous light-emitting compositions - Light-emitting devices are prepared by coating a porous substrate using a polymer-assisted deposition process. Solutions of metal precursor and soluble polymers having binding properties for metal precursor were coated onto porous substrates. The coated substrates were heated at high temperatures under a suitable atmosphere. The result was a substrate with a conformal coating that did not substantially block the pores of the substrate. | 09-17-2009 |
| 20090297423 | ENERGY EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF BORANES - The reaction of halo-boron compounds (B—X compounds, compounds having one or more boron-halogen bonds) with silanes provides boranes (B—H compounds, compounds having one or more B—H bonds) and halosilanes. Inorganic hydrides, such as surface-bound silane hydrides (Si—H) react with B—X compounds to form B—H compounds and surface-bound halosilanes. The surface bound halosilanes are converted back to surface-bound silanes electrochemically. Halo-boron compounds react with stannanes (tin compounds having a Sn—H bond) to form boranes and halostannanes (tin compounds having a Sn—X bond). The halostannanes are converted back to stannanes electrochemically or by the thermolysis of Sn-formate compounds. When the halo-boron compound is BCl | 12-03-2009 |
| 20100029069 | GERMANIUM FILMS BY POLYMER-ASSISTED DEPOSITION - Highly ordered Ge films are prepared directly on single crystal Si substrates by applying an aqueous coating solution having Ge-bound polymer onto the substrate and then heating in a hydrogen-containing atmosphere. A coating solution was prepared by mixing water, a germanium compound, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, and polyethyleneimine to form a first aqueous solution and then subjecting the first aqueous solution to ultrafiltration. | 02-04-2010 |
