Methods for roll-to-roll deposition of optically transparent and high conductivity metallic thin films are disclosed. In general, a method according to the present invention comprises: (1) providing a flexible plastic substrate; (2) depositing a multi-layered conductive metallic film on the flexible plastic substrate by a thin-film deposition technique to form a composite film; and (3) collecting the composite film in continuous rolls. Typically, the thin conductive metallic film is an InCeO-Ag-InCeO film. Typically, the thin-film deposition technique is DC magnetron sputtering. Another aspect of the invention is a composite film produced by a method according to the present invention. Still another aspect of the invention is a composite film comprising InCeO-Ag-InCeO film formed on a flexible plastic substrate, wherein the composite film has a combination of properties including: transmittance of at least 90% throughout the visible region; an electrical resistance of no greater than about 10 Omega / square; a root-mean-square roughness of no greater than about 2.5 nm; and an interlayer adhesion between the InCeO / Ag / InCeO metallic film and the remainder of the composite film that is sufficiently great to survive a 180° peel adhesion test.

A supply part for supplying resin, a smoothing part for smoothing the resin, and an objective lens for exposing the smoothed resin to light are provided in separate positions within substantially the same horizontal plane, and a modeling part is movable by a horizontal drive mechanism under the three above-mentioned components. For processing in the three above-mentioned components, the modeling part is moved to positions immediately under the three above-mentioned components in order by the horizontal drive mechanism. Thus, the modeling part is brought as close to the three above-mentioned components as possible for processing. The exposure is performed, with the objective lens fixed to a base body. Exposure light is focused onto a resin layer on a modeling base, and the light reflected from the resin layer is received by the objective lens, directed by a beam splitter toward an image surface optical system and received as an image by a CCD camera. During the exposure, the directed exposure light serves as illumination light which enables an operator to check whether current focus is achieved on the surface of the resin layer. During a time interval between the completion of the exposure of the resin layer to light and the execution of the exposure of the next resin layer to light, the fine adjustment of the vertical position of a stage is made, whereby the fine adjustment of the focus position is made in accordance with the result of observation using a monitor. This prevents the decrease in modeling accuracy for the subsequent resin layers, thereby to hold the modeling accuracy for the entire model higher, thereby improving the yield and productivity of models. These provide a stereolithography apparatus which attains a resin layer thickness of 10 μm and an exposure resolution of 2 μm and is preferred for micromachining.

Transparent conductive films for flat panel displays and methods for producing them are disclosed. In general, a method according to the present invention comprises: (1) providing a flexible plastic substrate; (2) depositing a multi-layered conductive metallic film on the flexible plastic substrate by a thin-film deposition technique to form a composite film, the multi-layered conductive metallic film comprising two layers of an alloy selected from the group consisting of indium cerium oxide (InCeO) and indium tin oxide (ITO) surrounding a layer of an alloy of silver, palladium, and copper (Ag / Pd / Cu); and (3) collecting the composite film in continuous rolls. Typically, the thin-film deposition technique is DC magnetron sputtering. Another aspect of the invention is a composite film produced by a method according to the present invention. Still another aspect of the invention is a composite film comprising a multilayered film as described above formed on a flexible plastic substrate, wherein the composite film has a combination of properties including: transmittance of at least 80% throughout the visible region; an electrical resistance of no greater than about 10 Ω / square; a root-mean-square roughness of no greater than about 2.5 nm; and an interlayer adhesion between the multi-layered metallic film and the remainder of the composite film that is sufficiently great to survive a 180° peel adhesion test.

Lipid-based, creamy food fillings are disclosed that are bake stable up to a temperature of at least about 125 DEG C. The creamy food fillings are particularly suitable for use in products that require the filling to be added prior to baking. In one aspect, the fillings are a solid-in-liquid dispersion having a dispersed solid phase including a hydrophilic powder and a high melting lipid, as well as a continuous lipid phase including a low melting lipid in which the hydrophilic powder and high melting lipid are dispersed. Preferably, the fillings have a low water activity of about 0.5 or lower and are formed in the absence of additional humectants, thickening agents, or gelling agents.

The invention disclosed herein provides, Porous Crystalline Frameworks (PCFs) also known as Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) that exhibit stability towards acidic, basic and neutral pH conditions. Further the invention discloses economical, environmentally-friendly process for the synthesis thereof.

An exposure apparatus includes a carrying device and a UV light generation device that irradiate a transparent substrate positioned on the carrying device. The carrying device includes a base, a linear electric machine, an exposure table, and a pneumatic lift device that is arranged between the exposure table and the base and supports the exposure table on the base. A stator of the linear electric machine is fixed to the base, and a rotor of the linear electric machine is fixedly coupled to the exposure table. The linear electric machine drives the exposure table to move relative to the base. A method for exposure of a transparent substrate is also provided. The linear electric machine only needs to drive the movement of the exposure table thereby helping increase exposure speed and exposure accuracy. The pneumatic lift device provides an additional function of cushioning.
