20150380789 | PHASE SHIFT DEVICE - A phase shift device includes a planar transmission line that is formed by a signal electrode and a ground electrode which are separated by a dielectric substance, whereby the signal electrode of the planar transmission line is divided into several pieces and includes overlapping areas of adjacent pieces that are filled with a tunable liquid crystal material, thereby forming a dielectric tunable component (varactor) with a metal-insulator-metal type capacitor. The several pieces of the signal electrode are arranged at two or more different distance levels with respect to the ground electrode. The tunable liquid crystal material is arranged as a continuous layer between several pieces of the signal electrode that are arranged at two different distance levels. | 12-31-2015 |
20140266897 | ELECTRONICALLY STEERABLE PLANAR PHASE ARRAY ANTENNA - A two-dimensional (2-D) beam steerable phased array antenna is presented comprising a continuously electronically steerable material including a tunable material or a variable dielectric material, preferred a liquid crystal material. A compact antenna architecture including a patch antenna array, tunable phase shifters, a feed network and a bias network is proposed. Similar to the LC display, the proposed antenna is fabricated by using automated manufacturing techniques and therefore the fabrication costs are reduced considerably. | 09-18-2014 |
20130287700 | COMPOUNDS FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF NEURODEGENERATIVE DISORDERS ON THE OLFACTORY EPITHELIUM - Subject of the present invention are compounds with high affinity for the Aβ protein, α-synuclein or for Tau-PHF aggregates, which are suitable as preferably fluorescent probes for the in vivo diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders like e.g. Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. The compounds are characterized by suitable physicochemical properties (excitation wavelength, emission wavelength, Stokes shift, extinction) as well as a high affinity and selectivity for the target proteins. | 10-31-2013 |
20130200301 | MIXTURE FOR REDUCING THE FORMATION OF MAGNESIUM AMMONIUM PHOSPHATE (STRUVITE) IN CLARIFICATION PLANTS - The invention describes a method to prevent the formation of struvite in wastewater treatment plants. For that purpose, calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) is metered out into the excess sludge. | 08-08-2013 |
20130065358 | Method for Producing (Electro) Luminescent, Photoactive or Electrically (Semi) Conducting Polymers - The invention concerns the production of poly(arylene-vinylenes) and related polymers whose polymerization is triggered photochemically. For that purpose, the low molecular starting materials are firstly cooled to temperatures which are so low that in fact their activation into mostly chinoid intermediate stages (the “active” monomer) occurs; the thermally induced polymerization, however, either does not occur or barely takes place at all. The polymerization is instead triggered in a separate step by means of electromagnetic radiation of a suitable wavelength—either using the absorption behavior of the low-molecular starting compounds/the monomers, or mediated by means of photoinitiators and/or sensitizers. | 03-14-2013 |

20120229119 | Device and Method for the Detection of the Rotor Position at Low Rotational Speeds or at a Standstill - The invention describes a circuit arrangement and a method for the detection of the rotor position at low rotational speeds of rotors or at a standstill. For this, an HF signal is fed into the neutral point (zero sequence) and the rotor position is detected via the distribution of the HF signal in the coils (non-zero sequence). | 09-13-2012 |
20120056111 | SINGLE PHOTON EMISSION SYSTEM - An embodiment of the invention relates to a single photon emission system having a proximal end, a distal end, and a single photon emitter located between the proximal end and the distal end; wherein the single photon emission system is adapted to guide optical pump radiation, which is inputted at the proximal end to optically excite the single photon emitter, along a predefined direction that runs from the proximal end to the distal end; and wherein single photons emitted by said single photon emitter, are guided along said predefined direction to the distal end. | 03-08-2012 |
