Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional light conversion materials are used in electronic devices, then the device structure remains simple, but the light conversion capability is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelight conversion capabilityVSAvoiddevice structure
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a porous structure as the carrier for light conversion materials. This porous structure provides a three-dimensional network that enhances light conversion capability while maintaining a relatively simple overall device structure. The porous architecture increases the surface area and interaction between light and conversion materials without requiring complex multi-layer structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #31Porous materials

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a composite structure by integrating light conversion materials into a porous carrier framework. This composite approach combines the structural benefits of the porous material with the functional properties of the light conversion materials, achieving improved light conversion capability while avoiding the need for multiple separate components or complex assembly structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Reliability

If light conversion materials are dispersed in solvent, then the light conversion properties can be adjusted, but the production process becomes more complex due to solvent adjustment requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelight conversion propertiesVSAvoidproduction process
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The porous structure serves as a pre-formed carrier that eliminates the need for solvent-based dispersion processes. Light conversion materials can be directly deposited, infiltrated, or grown within the porous framework through simple impregnation or vapor-phase methods, avoiding complex solvent adjustment, drying, and curing steps while maintaining excellent light conversion properties.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #31Porous materials

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the chemical/solvent-based dispersion method with a physical infiltration or deposition process into the porous structure. This substitution eliminates the need for solvent selection, concentration adjustment, and evaporation control, simplifying the manufacturing process while preserving the ability to control light conversion properties through material selection and loading quantity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)
