| 20100107700 | Methods For Forming Cladding Portions Of Optical Fiber Preform Assemblies - A method of forming a cladding portion of an optical fiber preform assembly includes positioning a glass core cane in a mold cavity and loading the mold cavity with silica glass soot. The silica glass soot is compressed in an axial direction as the vibratory energy is applied to the mold body to form a soot compact around the glass core cane, wherein the soot compact is the cladding portion of an optical fiber preform assembly and the glass core cane is a core portion of the optical fiber preform assembly. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100122558 | Apparatus and Method of Sintering an Optical Fiber Preform - A method and apparatus for consolidating an optical fiber preform, wherein the optical fiber preform is located in a furnace comprising a muffle tube, said muffle tube comprising an inner section and an outer section surrounding the inner section. The inner and outer sections are comprised of different materials, and the preform is exposed to a pressure less than 0.8 atm while simultaneously exposing said preform to a temperature of at least 1000 C. | 05-20-2010 |
| 20100129533 | Conductive Film Formation On Glass - Methods for coating a glass substrate are described. The coatings are conductive metal oxide coatings which can also be transparent. The conductive thin film coated glass substrates can be used in, for example, display devices, solar cell applications and in many other rapidly growing industries and applications. | 05-27-2010 |
| 20100221501 | GLASS SHEET WITH PROTECTED EDGE, EDGE PROTECTOR AND METHOD FOR MAKING GLASS SHEET USING SAME - A glass sheet assembly includes a glass sheet having an edge surface and a shaped fiber. The shaped fiber has a first surface bonded to the edge surface of the glass sheet and a convex second surface not bonded to the edge surface for receiving a load. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20110094577 | CONDUCTIVE METAL OXIDE FILMS AND PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICES - Article comprising a substrate; and a conductive metal oxide film adjacent to a surface of the substrate, wherein the conductive metal oxide film has an electron mobility (cm | 04-28-2011 |
