PROCESS CHAMBER WITH REFLECTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17971494 titled 'PROCESS CHAMBER WITH REFLECTOR
The abstract describes a reflector and processing chamber, with a reflector that includes a cylindrical body, a cooling channel, and a reflective coating.
- The reflector has a cylindrical body with concave reflector structures on the lower surface.
- A cooling channel is integrated into or onto the cylindrical body.
- A reflective coating is applied to the concave reflector structures.
Potential Applications: - Solar energy systems - Lighting systems - Concentrated solar power systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient reflection of light - Cooling of the reflector to prevent overheating
Benefits: - Increased energy efficiency - Extended lifespan of the reflector - Improved performance in various applications
Commercial Applications: - Solar power plants - Indoor and outdoor lighting systems - Aerospace industry for satellite reflectors
Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include patents or research on reflective coatings, cooling systems for reflectors, and concave reflector structures.
Frequently Updated Research: Researchers may be exploring new materials for reflective coatings, improved cooling technologies, and innovative designs for concave reflector structures.
Questions about Reflectors: 1. How does the cooling channel in the reflector contribute to its performance?
- The cooling channel helps dissipate heat, preventing the reflector from overheating and maintaining optimal efficiency.
2. What are the key factors to consider when choosing a reflective coating for a reflector?
- Factors such as reflectivity, durability, and resistance to environmental factors should be considered when selecting a reflective coating.
Original Abstract Submitted
A reflector and processing chamber having the same are described herein. In one example, a reflector is provided that includes cylindrical body, a cooling channel, and a reflective coating. The cylindrical body has an upper surface and a lower surface. The lower surface has a plurality of concave reflector structures disposed around a centerline of the cylindrical body. The cooling channel disposed in or on the cylindrical body. The reflective coating is disposed on the plurality of concave reflector structures.
