Optical waveguides interconnect optical information processing devices, or connect such devices with other optical communication links such as glass optical fibers. Fluoropolymers consisting of alternating perfluorocyclobutane and aryl ether linkages possess suitable properties for optical waveguides and other devices due to tunability in optical properties of the copolymers. Perfluorocyclobutane (PFCB) copolymer may be employed in solutions that exhibit a high solids content. Such solutions show useful physical properties for optical waveguide devices since the solutions are capable of achieving single step film thicknesses, when applied to a substrate, of greater than about 0.6 microns, and sometimes may achieve a thickness of 10 microns or more.

The present invention relates to an antistatic article comprising a substrate or support having thereon at least one antistatic layer, wherein the antistatic layer comprises a conductive material having areas of patterned coverage.

A donor substrate for use in an organic light emitting display comprises a base substrate and a transfer layer disposed on the base substrate. A selective heat generation structure is interposed between the base substrate and the transfer layer. The selective heat generation structure has a heat generation region from which heat is generated by light-to-heat conversion and a heat non-generation region contacting the heat generation region. By employing the donor substrate, it is possible to form minute transfer layer patterns with high accuracy without the need to accurately control the width of a laser beam. A fabrication method of an organic light emitting display comprises disposing the donor substrate on an acceptor substrate, irradiating a laser beam onto the donor substrate, and forming a transfer layer pattern on a pixel electrode of the acceptor substrate.

A transfer sheet comprises a support, and a transfer layer for receiving an ink, wherein the transfer layer is formed in the support by heating at a predetermined temperature and is separable from the support. The hot-melt adhesive particle comprises a first particle having a melting point more than the predetermined temperature and a second particle having a melting point not more than the predetermined temperature. The transfer layer may further comprise a film-forming resin component and a dye fixing agent. The hot-melt adhesive particle may comprise a polyamide-series particle. In particular, the average particle size of the first particle may be 3 to 100 mm. The transfer sheet is excellent in stability on delivery of a paper as well as can prevent the inside of the printer from staining.

A masking film has a unique polymeric binder in the imageable layer that enables the imaged film to be readily solubilized in non-chlorinated developers when it is used to form a relief image in a radiation-sensitive element, such as a UV-sensitive flexographic printing plate precursor. The polymeric binders in the imageable layer are resins that can be dissolved or dispersed in cyclohexane at 10% solids at 23° C. within 24 hours.

The present invention relates to modified pigment products comprising a pigment having attached at least one organic group represented by the formula —X-Sp-Alk, wherein X, which is directly attached to the pigment, represents an arylene, heteroarylene, or alkylene group, Sp represents a spacer group, and Alk represents an alkenyl or alkyl group containing 50-200 carbon atoms. The use of these modified pigment products in non-aqueous dispersion compositions and in several applications, including printing plates, electrophoretic displays, liquid crystal displays, and ink, coating, toner, and polymer compositions is also disclosed.

A positive hole transporting layer (14) is formed on an ITO film so as to form a substrate (10). A light emission organic material (20) is formed on the front surface of a convex protrusion portion (18) of a metal sheet (16). The front surface of the positive hole transporting layer (14) and the convex protrusion portion (18) are clamped with a glass plate (22). Laser light is radiated to the interior of the convex protrusion portion (18) through a shielding plate with an opening portion whose size corresponds to the size of the convex protrusion portion (18). The light emission organic material formed on the front surface of the convex protrusion portion (18) sublimates and transfers to the positive hole transporting layer (14). These steps are performed for areas of three color light emission devices.

In addition, an electrostatic charge image developing toner allows to design the toner characteristics such as chargeability, flowability, stability in time and environmental stability uniform among the toners of different colors. The toner has a small particle size enough for enabling uniform dispersion and being excellent in color saturation and transparency. The toner also shows higher contribution to the environmental security. The toner includes a coloring agent of which at least a part of the surface is covered with polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). The toner is produced by dispersing the coloring agent in aqueous medium, then fixing PHA synthesizing enzyme to the coloring agent dispersed in the aqueous medium, then adding 3-hydroxyacyl CoA, and executing a PHA synthesizing reaction to cover at least a part of the surface of the coloring agent with PHA. The toner thus obtained is used for an image forming method.
