The disclosure discloses a high-flux and ultra-sensitive detection dot array enhancement chip, and belongs to the field of food safety detection. In the disclosure, single-layer Au nano-particles are chemically bonded onto a hydrophilic substrate, an Au nano-material is naturally deposited in holes of the chip under an electrostatic adsorption action, and a regular dot array is formed. Au particles distributed in the holes are separated with a particle surfactant (CTAB) to form plasma gaps so as to enhance the self-assemble of Au nano-particles distributed on hot-spots for a long range effect, thereby improving the sensing signal in detection efficiency and sensitivity of the chip.

A process for protecting a glass substrate coated with an electrochromic stack, includes depositing a temporary protective layer on the electrochromic stack, the temporary protective layer including an organic polymeric matrix and having a thickness of between 1 ?m and 30 ?m, and the temporary protective layer being removable by heat treatment at a temperature of between 300? C. and 500? C., fora period of between 180 s and 240 s.

A process for obtaining a substrate provided with a coating, in which the coating includes a pattern with spatial modulation of at least one property of the coating, includes performing a heat treatment, using a laser radiation, of a continuous coating deposited on the substrate. The heat treatment is such that the substrate is irradiated with the laser radiation focused on the coating in the form of at least one laser line, keeping the coating continuous and without melting of the coating, and a relative displacement of the substrate and of the laser line focused on the coating is imposed in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction of the laser line, while temporally modulating during this relative displacement the power of the laser line as a function of the speed of relative displacement and of the dimensions of the pattern in the direction of relative displacement.

Embodiments of a article including include a substrate and a patterned coating are provided. In one or more embodiments, when a strain is applied to the article, the article exhibits a failure strain of 0.5% or greater. Patterned coating may include a particulate coating or may include a discontinuous coating. The patterned coating of some embodiments may cover about 20% to about 75% of the surface area of the substrate. Methods for forming such articles are also provided.

This disclosure relates to a method for strengthening an edge of a glass plate, a glass, and a display apparatus, wherein the article comprises a side surface located at the edge, and the method for strengthening an edge of an article comprises the steps of: applying an etching paste at least to the side surface of the article to perform etching so as to strengthen the edge of the article; and removing the etching paste.

Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to coated articles including noble metal (e.g., Ag) and polymeric hydrogenated diamond like carbon (DLC) (e.g., a-C:H, a-C:H:O) composite material having antibacterial and photocatalytic properties, and/or methods of making the same. A glass substrate supports a buffer layer, a matrix comprising the noble metal and DLC, a proton-conducting layer that may comprising zirconium oxide in certain example embodiments, and a layer comprising titanium oxide. The layer comprising titanium oxide may be photocatalytic and optionally may further include carbon and/or nitrogen. The proton-conducting layer may facilitate the creation of electron-hole pairs and, in turn, promote the antibacterial properties of the coated article. The morphology of the layer comprising titanium oxide and/or channels formed therein may enable Ag ions produced from matrix to migrate therethrough.
