20110219788CRYOGENIC STORAGE DEVICE - The invention relates to a cryogenic storage device and to a method for operating a cryogenic storage device, particularly for cryogenic storage of biological samples, comprising a sample carrying device that is set up to accommodate samples, a cryogenic container that is set up to accommodate the sample carrying device, a container cooling device with which the cryogenic container can be cooled, an intermediate storage container that is set up for intermediate storage of the sample carrying device, a transport device with which the sample carrying device can be moved between the cryogenic container and the intermediate storage container and a sensor device with which at least one operating parameter of the cryogenic storage device can be registered. The transport device is set up to be activated in dependence on an output signal from the sensor device upon registering a predetermined operating condition of the cryogenic storage device, so that the sample carrying device is moved from the cryogenic container to the intermediate storage container. Additionally or alternatively, an intermediate storage cooling device that is set up for cooling the intermediate storage container can be activated in dependence on an output signal of the sensor device.09-15-2011

20100094587SLEEVE CONE QUALITY MEASUREMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD - A metrology system for measuring a cone angle, a cone straightness, and a cone quality of a sample and method of using the metrology system are disclosed. The system includes a rotary stage, one or more workpiece fixtures that hold the samples in the rotary stage, and a number of different sized measurement devices. The measuring devices are positioned next to the rotary stage and measure the samples using contact. The rotary stage is free to rotate when the measuring devices are in a non-measuring state. The invention also includes a processor that collects data from the measurement devices and calculates the cone angle, the cone straightness, and the cone quality of each sample based on the data.04-15-2010

20100021124ELECTROOPTICAL HIGH-INDEX CONTRAST WAVEGUIDE COMPONENT - A high-index contrast waveguide component is presented, which is based on the fast changing of the transmission properties of an optical waveguide by applying electric voltages, or by embossing electric currents. The waveguide consists of a high-refractive waveguide core surrounded by a low-refractive surrounding material, which at least area by area has electro-optical properties. By applying a voltage to completely or partially optically transparent electrodes, an electric field is generated having a strong overlap with the optical mode, being in interaction with it, and therefore changing the transmission properties of the waveguide. The transparent electrodes or supply line areas are laminar, connected at low resistance with conductor paths of high conductivity by means of structures continually repeated along the propagation direction. Thus, it is possible for example to very fast load the capacity being effective between the electrodes, and to thus achieve a high electric band width. In certain embodiments, the waveguide core itself consists of one or more electrically conductive stripes being used as electrodes at the same time. These embodiments make especially small switching voltages possible.01-28-2010

20080205427METHOD FOR INTEGRATION OF NETWORK NODES - In a data communications network building automation system, integration of wirelessly communicating network nodes is visualized in a process environment on an output unit of a commissioning device. The current spatial position of the commissioning device is detected and represented in the visualized process environment by detecting an identification signal of the network nodes and determining a relative spatial position of the network nodes for which the identification signal was detected. A proposal for the assignment of the detected identification signal to a node model is stored in a database based on the relative spatial position, in relation to the spatial position of the commissioning device.08-28-2008
