The technology in a nutshell
The invention relates to a method of silvering surfaces sensitive to high temperatures, as for example aluminium surfaces, foils, paper or fabric.
Presented method provides silvering aluminium surfaces, wherein the sintering stage is performed at temperatures significantly below the aluminium melting temperature, preferably within the range of about 200°C – 400°C, so that the aluminium surface being silvered remains undamaged after the sintering stage.
Our method is capable of silvering the surfaces in a simple, rapid, an economical and an environmental friendly manner with high sensitivity and selectivity.

The technology in a nutshell
The present invention relates to a photonic crystal fiber for transferring radially polarised light beam and a method of manufacturing such a fibre.
In this technology a core is made of glass and a photonic cladding surrounding the core comprises nanoholes filled with air or nanorods. The core contains nano-inclusion made of glass or metal. The presence of nano-inclusion introduces birefringence, which causes narrowing of fundamental mode-field area and significantly impedes the excitation of the fundamental mode. This allows to couple and transmit radially polarised light.

Title: Positioning overlay
(PL: Nakładka pozycjonująca)
Utility model number: Ru.073237
Application number: W.129908
Application date: 10.03.2021
Inventors: Krzysztof Michalak, Joanna Branas, Lech Rządca,
Owner: Łukasiewicz – IMiF
Jurisdictions: Poland
UPRP: https://ewyszukiwarka.pue.uprp.gov.pl/search/pwp-details/W.129908
The technology in a nutshell
The subject of the utility model is a positioning overlay that facilitates the proper positioning of a laser structure placed on a radiator inside an optoelectronic enclosure.
Choosing the right position of the radiator and thus the laser/laser structure inside the optoelectronic enclosure is very important, since the radiator, in addition to the cooling function also serves as the base/holder to which the laser is permanently attached.
Our goal was to develop a tool in the form of a positioning overlay that will enable accurate and repeatable positioning of a radiator with a laser structure in an optoelectronic enclosure. Such a tool will significantly shorten the assembly time as well as allow to commercially offer a product characterized by repeatable parameters in small batch production conditions.

Application number: W.129907
Application date: 10.03.2021
Inventors: Krzysztof Michalak, Joanna Branas, Lech Rządca,
Owner: Łukasiewicz – IMiF
Jurisdictions: Poland
UPRP: https://ewyszukiwarka.pue.uprp.gov.pl/search/pwp-details/W.129907
The technology in a nutshell
The subject of the utility model is a centering frame that facilitates the proper positioning of the laser structure placed on the radiator inside the optoelectronic enclosure.
Presented frame design is simple, and its use does not require strictly defined mounting pads. What is more, it allows for accurate and quick centering of the radiator using two contact points between the frame and the radiator, at a large distance from the soldering material and the internal walls of the enclosure. The simple design also allows for relatively quick modifications to adapt to an enclosure with dimensions other than standard.
This solution will both significantly shorten the required time and allow offering a product with repeatable parameters in commercial applications under small batch production conditions.

Jurisdictions: EPO, Poland
The technology in a nutshell
The object of the invention is a method of producing gold-coated InP nanostructures. Our method is mainly based on two steps the first of which is that, on a monocrystalline InP substrate, nanowires are grown using the method of metalorganic chemical vapour deposition, by introducing trimethylindium and phosphine in a constant manner into the reactor, wherein the carrier gas is hydrogen, wherein the ratio of the flow rate of phosphine to the flow rate of trimethylindium is no higher than 1000, wherein, during the introduction of trimethylindium and phosphine into the reactor, a constant temperature within a range of 370°C to 390°C and a pressure of 100 mbar are maintained. In the second step, the surface of the grown nanowires is coated with a gold layer by plasma spraying with a direct current of 20 mA. The object of the invention is also the use of gold-coated InP nanostructures as a platform for the measurements of surface-enhanced Raman scattering.

Espacenet: https://worldwide.espacenet.com/patent/search/family/060674045/publication/EP3339261B1?q=EP3339261b1
The technology in a nutshell
The invention relates to a method of manufacturing an active optical fiber, called nanostructuring, in which the fiber core is composed of a few thousand subwavelength rods with similar diameters ordered in the hexagonal lattice. When the rods are made of two or more types of glasses with different refractive indices, their distribution determines the local refractive index experienced by a light beam.
Nanostructuring allows to obtain any gradient arbitrary refractive index profile if the size of a single nanostructured component is much smaller than the wavelength, i.e. λ/5. In active fiber, at least one type of glass is doped with rare earth (RE) ions.
