Abstract:
An alternating current (AC) white LED lighting device and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The AC white LED lighting device consists of blue, violet or ultraviolet LED chips, blue afterglow luminescence materials A and yellow luminescence materials B. Wherein the weight ratio of the blue afterglow luminescence materials A to the yellow luminescence materials B is 10-70 wt %:30-90 wt %. Because of using afterglow luminescence materials, the light will be sustained when an excitation light source disappears, which can eliminate the influence of LED chips light output variation due to the AC fluctuation on the lighting device. And the problem of the heating of the chips also can be overcome. At the same time, the influence of temperature quenching effect and direction change of the AC current on the AC white LED lighting device is eliminated.

Abstract:
An Alternate Current (AC) white Light-Emitting Diode (LED) device is provided, which belongs to the technical field of white LED manufacturing. The problem to be solved by the present invention is to low-costly overcome a series of deficiencies such as the stroboflash of an AC driven LED, and the heat dissipation difficulty caused by an integrated packaging of multiple LEDs. A white LED unit includes an LED chip and a light emitting material that can emit light when being excited by the LED chip. The luminous lifetime of the light emitting material is 1-100 ms. The LED chip only comprises one PN junction. The light emitted by the LED chip is mixed with the light emitted by the light emitting material to form white light. The white LED unit is driven by AC with a frequency not more than 100 Hz. The white LED device of prevent invention uses the single PN junction chip, rather than the prior integrated packaged AC multi-LED chip.

The antenna system may additionally include a parasitic element between the first and second antennas along the end portion of the backplate.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of radiographic examination and radioactive material inspection, and provides a system and a method capable of simultaneous radiographic examination and radioactive material inspection. The system comprises a radiographic examination system and a radiation monitor; wherein the radiographic examination system comprises an accelerator and a synchronization controller, and the radiation monitor comprises a detector, a front end circuit, a signal transmission controller, a data collecting, analyzing and processing computer, an alarm device and so on. The present invention combines the radiographic examination system and the radiation monitor tightly so that the radioactive material inspection can be executed while the radiographic examination is performed, thereby the examination efficiency is improved and the occupied area of the system is reduced.

Also disclosed is a method for detecting orientation of a radioactive material.
Abstract:
A processor of an electronic device can implement methods that facilitate navigating a webpage. The methods may include: receiving (602) data for a target webpage and storing (604) the target webpage data to a processor readable storage medium of the electronic device and determining (606) whether the target webpage's uniform resource locator (URL) was selected from a search results page generated by a search engine executing a search string. If the target webpage's URL was selected from a search results page, performing (650) a particular action. The particular action can include steps of: searching (851) the stored target webpage data for one or more instances of one or more parts of the search string, prioritizing (852) the one or more instances, and resizing (858) one or more parts of the target webpage having the one or more instances with the highest priority.
