20130233189 | MULTI-LAYER PRINTING PROCESS - A system and method for forming indicia on a substrate. The system includes a feed system for feeding the substrate and a plurality of stations each operable to apply a processing step to the substrate. A first of the plurality of stations applies an energy curable ink to the substrate using a printing process. In some embodiments, this printing process is a gravure cylinder having indicia grooves formed on the gravure cylinder. The indicia grooves on the cylinder retain the energy curable ink until contact with the substrate whereby the energy curable ink is applied to the substrate. A curing unit is disposed downstream of the first of the plurality of stations. The curing unit receives the substrate and outputs an electron beam directed toward the energy curable ink to cure the energy curable ink and form a resultant energy curable layer upon the substrate. | 09-12-2013 |

20120281221 | PROCESS AND MEASURING EQUIPMENT FOR IMPROVING THE SIGNAL RESOLUTION IN GAS ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY - Process and measuring equipment for improving the signal resolution in gas absorption spectroscopy, wherein the measuring equipment includes a laser light source, a light detector and a measuring chamber arranged in between, and furthermore a light source control unit and a light detector evaluation unit. To improve the signal resolution, the noise intensity of the measuring equipment is reduced by averaging over time the interfering signal portions caused by back-reflections, etalons respectively self-mixing effects. This is accomplished by a light modulator arranged downstream the laser light source that continuously periodically influences the optical path length of the light beam. Thereto the light modulator includes an optical element with an adjustable refractory index that continuously cyclically alters the phase of the laser light of the light beam. | 11-08-2012 |
20120283961 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING A GAS CONCENTRATION WITH REDUCED PRESSURE DEPENDENCY - This invention relates to a method that makes the measurement of a trace gas concentration invariant or at least less affected to pressure variations in the gas and atmospheric pressure changes. This method neither requires a pressure sensor nor a pressure calibration routine. Furthermore, the method can be applied to other gas species present in the background gas or to the background gas itself that cross-interfere with the target gas of interest. This allows removing any pressure dependency of cross-interference parameters of other gas species and/or the background gas. The new method for accurately measuring a gas concentration is based on optimizing the wavelength modulation amplitude of the laser to minimum pressure dependency. | 11-08-2012 |
20130070797 | LASER UNIT WITH SUPPRESSED FEEDBACK - Laser unit, preferably for gas detection, with a semiconductor laser chip comprising an output mirror with an exit zone for a laser beam and an optical element that reduces self-mixing which is arranged at the exit zone, wherein optical element and laser chip are connected with each other with direct physical contact over an entire surface, at least in the exit zone. Said optical element is connected to the laser chip positively or by means of an optical medium. Thereby optionally a beam-shaping element may be arranged on the optical element that is connected positively or by means of an optical medium with the optical element. Preferably beam-shaping element and optical element have similar or identical refractory indices and are connected with each other and with the laser chip by adhesive agents having corresponding refractory indices. | 03-21-2013 |

20120024462 | Prosthesis and method for lowering abdominal pressure - A two-sheet fascial expander prosthesis for temporary use and method of using it to treat abdominal hypertension and associated organ system function impairment, in which each flat sheet is attached to the fascia only at opposite sides of an incision. One side of each sheet is armed with mating fastening elements that bond when united to bring about high tensile shear strength and low tensile peeling-off resistance permitting easy separation for diagnostic and therapeutic abdominal entry. The invention is useful because it expands the fascia and adds compliance to the envelope of the abdominal cavity by bridging the gap between free borders of the incised fascia containing intra-abdominal organs without strangulating their blood supply and retaining some tension on the fascia to prevent retraction and bringing the edges closer together as healing progresses, and permitting final removal of the patch and fascia-to-fascia closure. The method of producing and testing biocompatibility of the two-sheet fascia prosthesis also is disclosed. | 02-02-2012 |
