A method for manufacturing an electrochromic element comprises providing a first substrate having first and second surfaces opposite one another and a first edge surface, providing a second substrate having third and fourth surfaces opposite one another and a second edge surface, wherein the third surfaces faces the second surface, and providing an electrochromic medium located between the first and second substrates, wherein the electrochromic medium has a light transmittance that is variable upon the application of electric field thereto. The method further complies applying a conductive layer on at least a portion of at least a select one of a first, second, third, and fourth surfaces and the first and second edge surfaces, wherein applying the conductive layer is accomplished at substantially atmospheric pressure and including applying at least a select one of metallic particles, an organometallic, a metallo-organic, and combinations thereof, and wherein the conductive layer has a bulk resistivity of less than or equal to 150 μΩ·cm. Other aspects of this invention comprise applying the conductive layer via ink jetting, ultrasonic spraying, auger pumping and jet pumping.

Provided is a liquid curable resin composition which can produce transparent cured products with a high refractive index, high hardness, and superior abrasion resistance, and which can be suitably used as a coating material. The liquid curable resin composition comprises: (A) a poly-functional (meth)acrylic compound having at least three (meth) acryloyl groups in the molecule; (B) a reaction product obtained by the reaction of a compound having a polymerizable unsaturated group and alkoxysilyl group in the molecule and particles metal oxide, the metals being preferably selected from the group consisting of zirconium, antimony, zinc, tin, cerium, and titanium; and (C) a radiation polymerization initiator.

Metallic aerogel compositions comprising an aerogel, e.g., RF or carbon aerogel, having metallic particles dispersed on its surface are disclosed. The aerogel compositions can have a uniform distribution of small metallic particles, e.g., 1 nanometer average particle diameter. Also disclosed are processes for making the aerogel compositions comprising contacting an aerogel with a supercritical fluid containing a metallic compound. The aerogel compositions are useful, for example in the manufacture of fuel cell electrodes.

A plasmon resonance device 100 according to an example of a structure is characterized in that metallic particles 7 isolated from each other are formed in each of a plurality of pores 5 of anodic oxidized alumina 3. As a method of manufacturing the plasmon resonance device 100, a metal is coated on the anodic oxidized alumina 3 opening the pores 5 and a metal coated element provided on the opening surface of the pore in the anodic oxidized alumina 3 is removed. Consequently, metallic particles isolated from each other are formed in the respective independent pores. The plasmon resonance device 100 can be used as a sensor utilizing a localized plasmon resonance phenomenon.
