Abstract From the Canadian patent

To conduct generating electricity and heating by utilizing solar rays, the solar rays are separated to short wavelength and long wavelength which are separately converged to increase the efficiency of generating and heating. To separate the sunlight, it is preferable to use a semi-transparent mirror for reflecting the short wavelength and for passing the long wavelength. Further, it is preferable that the semi-transparent mirror may act as an optical system for converging the short wavelength.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 3, 1995 and granted December 19, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 3, 2015.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 3, 2017.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
