Re: CK Patent 6967448

I wonder if the Brois will enforce patents on the aliens when they land
in their vacuum inflationary warp drive ships......I'd like to see him
take up the issue standing behind a high power vortex plasma cannon....
Actually the stained glass stuff looks pretty good, a clever
application of what I guess is plain old electroluminescent technology
to decorative glassworks. Imagine a big vase or glowing
glasses.....very nice bling potential. I'm assuming the pics show a
real life working model.
I've got some phosphors and glow powders some time ago to play with,
some cool reds and blues and yellows along with the usual green. Had
some nice results embedding long life glow powder in casting
resin....and big plans on making artworks with embedded UV LEDs and
glow powders. Unfortunately the 5mm 25mA ones I had on hand didn't
charge the glow powder or make the phosphors glow to any useful
brightness...even in the dark. Plus they had an annoying purple. I'd
guess there'd be other types of LEDs that really hit the spot....but
lost interest in the project. Maybe will do some more experimenting.
Any ideas on a suitable UV LED....haven't seen high power 1W/3W UV
LEDs... but haven't really looked very hard. Would like a nearly
invisible high power UV LED, possibly ones destined for dentist curing
machines.
Another question, would your average glow powder or phosphor be glowing
with high voltage excitation, how should it be dispersed?....is it
worth experimenting in that area? Any shortcuts, or would only the
'electroluminophore' material work?
