Techniques, processes and structures are disclosed for providing markings on products, such as electronic devices. For example, the markings can be formed using physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes to deposit a layer of material. The markings or labels may be textual and/or graphic. The markings are deposited on a compliant layer that is disposed on a surface to be marked. The compliant layer is arranged to isolate the surface to be marked from the layer of material deposited using the PVD process.

A glass article includes a central layer including a first crystalline phase having a first coefficient of thermal expansion and a surface layer surrounding an entirety of the central layer and including a second crystalline phase having a second coefficient of thermal expansion smaller than the first coefficient of thermal expansion. Accordingly, the strength of the glass article may be improved.

A composite pane, includes a laminated stacking sequence composed of an outer pane having an exterior-side surface and an interior-side surface, an inner pane having an exterior-side surface and an interior-side surface, and at least one thermoplastic intermediate layer that joins the interior-side surface of the outer pane to the exterior-side surface of the inner pane, wherein a solar protection coating is applied directly to the interior-side surface of the outer pane, which coating substantially reflects or absorbs rays outside the visible spectrum of solar radiation, in particular infrared rays, a thermal-radiation-reflecting coating is applied directly to the interior-side surface of the inner pane, and the thermoplastic intermediate layer has a printed opaque layer in at least one region.

The metallization layer may be electrically coupled to the metal plating layer through the barrier layer. The barrier layer may comprise a metal-nitride film disposed on the metal plating layer that is electrically coupled to the metallization layer. The barrier layer may comprise a metal film disposed over the metal plating layer and over a portion of glass surrounding the TGV, and an electrically-insulating film disposed upon the metal film, the electrically-insulating film completely overlapping the metal plating layer and partially overlapping the metal film.

A material includes a glass sheet, one of the faces of which includes a first zone and a second zone, only the first zone being coated with a layer of opaque mineral paint obtained from a water-based paint composition including pigments and an aqueous solution of alkaline silicate, the layer of mineral paint and the second zone of the glass sheet being coated with a thin layer stack including at least one electrically conductive thin layer.

One or more aspects of the disclosure pertain to an article including an optical film structure disposed on an inorganic oxide substrate, which may include a strengthened or non-strengthened substrate that may be amorphous or crystalline, such that the article exhibits scratch resistance and retains the same or improved optical properties as the inorganic oxide substrate, without the optical film structure disposed thereon. In one or more embodiments, the article exhibits an average transmittance of 85% or more, over the visible spectrum (e.g., 380 nm-780 nm). Embodiments of the optical film structure include aluminum-containing oxides, aluminum-containing oxy-nitrides, aluminum-containing nitrides (e.g., AlN) and combinations thereof.

At least a portion of the cover lens is made of at least one glass sheet having an absorption coefficient lower than 5 m.sup.−1 in the wavelength range from 750 to 1650 nm. The cover lens helps to protect the LiDAR sensing device from external degradation.

A layered structure for an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) device, the layered structure including a light-transmissive substrate and an internal extraction layer formed on one side of the light-transmissive substrate, in which the internal extraction layer includes (1) a scattering area containing scattering elements composed of solid particles and pores, the solid particles having a density that decreases as it goes away from the interface with the light-transmissive substrate, and the pores having a density that increases as it goes away from the interface with the light-transmissive substrate, and (2) a free area where no scattering elements are present, formed from the surface of the internal extraction layer, which is opposite to the interface, to a predetermined depth.

Methods for arresting or inhibiting cell growth, particularly cancer cell growth, comprising preventing or reducing ErbB-2/ErbB-3 heterodimer formation, or interfering with ErbB-2/ErbB-3 heterodimer conformation in a cell and agents which prevent or reduce ErbB-2/ErbB-3 heterodimer formation or interface with ErbB-2/ErbB-3 heterodimer conformation in a cell thereby arresting or inhibiting the growth of the cell.
