The present invention provides a method for directly producing lactide by subjecting lactic acid to a dehydration reaction in the presence of a catalyst comprising a tin compound, preferably, a tin (IV) compound, wherein lactide can be produced directly or by one step from lactic acid, without going through the step of producing or separating lactic acid oligomer. The method of the present invention has advantages of causing no loss of lactic acid, having a high conversion ratio to lactic acid and a high selectivity to optically pure lactide, and maintaining a long life time of the catalyst. Further, since lactic acid oligomer is not or hardly generated and the selectivity of meso-lactide is low, the method also has an advantage that the cost for removing or purifying this can be saved.

Patterning electronic devices using reactive-ion etching of tin oxides

Номер: US20200185609A1
Автор: Jisung Park
Принадлежит: CORNELL UNIVERSITY

Patterning electronic devices using reactive-ion etching of tin oxides is provided. Reactive-ion etching facilitates patterning of tin oxides, such as barium stannate (BaSnO3), at a consistent and controllable etch rate. The reactive-ion etching approach described herein facilitates photolithographic patterning of tin oxide-based semiconductors to produce electronic devices, such as thin-film transistors (TFTs). This approach further patterns a tin oxide-based semiconductor without adversely affecting its electrical properties (e.g., resistivity, electron or hole mobility), as well as maintaining surface roughness. This approach can be used to produce optically transparent devices with high drain current (ID, drain-to-source current per channel width) and high on-off ratio.
