Semiconductor light emitting element, and its manufacturing method
InactiveUS6303405B1Quality improvementImprove electricitySolid-state devicesSemiconductor/solid-state device manufacturingLaser lightHeat stress
A semiconductor light emitting element of nitride compound semiconductors excellent in cleavability, heat radiation and resistance to leakage is made by epitaxially grow a nitride compound semiconductor layers on a substrate of sapphire, for example, and thereafter separating the substrate. For separating the substrate, there are a technique using a abruption mechanism susceptible to a stress such as a "lift-off layer" and a recesses on a substrate. A technique using laser light to cause a local dense heat stress at the abruption mechanism is effective. A nitride compound semiconductor obtained by separating the substrate may be used as a new substrate to epitaxially grow high-quality nitride compound semiconductors thereon.

Optical reflector for reducing radiation heat transfer to hot engine parts
InactiveUS20050048305A1Extended component lifeLess mean timePig casting plantsRotary propellersOptical reflectionCoating system
A high temperature gas turbine component for use in the gas flow path that comprises a specular optical reflector coating system. A thin specular optical reflector coating system is applied to the gas flow path of the component, that is, the surface of the component that forms a boundary for hot combustion gases. The component typically includes a thermal barrier coating overlying the high temperature metallic component that permits the component to operate at elevated temperatures. The thermal barrier coating must be polished in order to provide a surface that can suitably reflect the radiation into the gas flow path. The thin reflector coating system comprises a thin high temperature and corrosion resistant refractory stabilizing layer, which is applied over a thin reflective metal layer, which is applied over a thin high temperature and corrosion resistant refractory sealing layer. The coating system is applied over the polished thermal barrier coating by a process that can adequately adhere the reflector to the polished surface without increasing the roughness of the surface. The coating system reflects radiation back into the hot gas flow path or into the atmosphere. The reflected radiation is not focused onto any other hardware component. The design of the component is such that the radiation is returned to the gas flow path or sent to the atmosphere rather than absorbed into a component that only serves to increase the temperature of such a component.
