| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 8355883 | Measurement and apparatus for electrical measurement of electrical drive parameters for a MEMS based display Methods and devices to measure voltage margins of electromechanical devices are disclosed. The voltage margins are determined based on responses to test voltages which cause the devices to change states. State changes of the devices are detected by monitoring integr... | 01/15/2013 |
| 8204703 | Measurement and apparatus for electrical measurement of electrical drive parameters for a MEMS based display Methods and devices to measure threshold voltages of electro-mechanical systems devices are disclosed. The threshold voltages are determined based on which of multiple test voltages cause the devices to change states. State changes of the device are detected by moni... | 06/19/2012 |
| 8111262 | Interferometric modulator displays with reduced color sensitivity Methods are described for selecting reflective layer distances in an interferometric modulator display that result in reduced color sensitivity to temperature and process variation. Colors are selected for interferometric modulator subpixels that correspond to a min... | 02/07/2012 |
| 8068269 | Microelectromechanical device with spacing layer An interferometric modulating device is provided with a spacing layer positioned between the fixed reflector and the electrode. The spacing layer prevents shorting between the movable reflector and the electrode and provides a filtering cavity to improve color satur... | 11/29/2011 |
| 7760979 | System and method for low loss waveguide bends In one embodiment, there is disclosed a waveguide medium using total internal reflection to create a relatively sharp (approximately 90°) bend for optical signals traversing the waveguide. A discontinuity of the medium (such as air) is used to create a turning mirr... | 07/20/2010 |
| 7688452 | Determination of interferometric modulator mirror curvature and airgap variation using digital photographs Air gap variation in an interferometric modulator over a two-dimensional spatial map of the modulator is determined by acquiring a digital photograph of the modulator. Color parameters of individual pixels in the photograph are determined and compared to a model of ... | 03/30/2010 |
| 7612933 | Microelectromechanical device with spacing layer An interferometric modulating device is provided with a spacing layer positioned between the fixed reflector and the electrode. The spacing layer prevents shorting between the movable reflector and the electrode and provides a filtering cavity to improve color satur... | 11/03/2009 |
| 7577172 | Active region of a light emitting device optimized for increased modulation speed operation In accordance with the invention, increased maximum modulation speeds and improved hole distribution are obtained for light emitting devices. Barrier layers of a quantum well structure for a light emitting device are formed with varying barrier energy heights. Quant... | 08/18/2009 |
| 7388704 | Determination of interferometric modulator mirror curvature and airgap variation using digital photographs Air gap variation in an interferometric modulator over a two-dimensional spatial map of the modulator is determined by acquiring a digital photograph of the modulator. Color parameters of individual pixels in the photograph are determined and compared to a model of ... | 06/17/2008 |
