The enhancement can be quite large, a factor of more than 1000 is possible. The consequences for the properties will be discussed in the present paper applying a brick-layer model (BLM) for calculating dc-resistivities of thin layers and a modified one (PBLM) that includes percolation for calculating dielectric properties of these materials. The PBLM results in an at least qualitative description and understanding of the physical phenomena: This model gives an explanation for the steep increase of the dielectric constant below the percolation threshold and why this increase is connected to a dramatic decrease of the breakdown voltage as well as the ability of storing electrical energy. We conclude that metallic electrolyte composites like BaTiO₃ are not appropriate for energy storage.}, language = {en} } @article{BaeckerRaueSchusseretal.2012, author = {B{\"a}cker, Matthias and Raue, Markus and Schusser, Sebastian and Jeitner, C. and Breuer, L. and Wagner, P. and Poghossian, Arshak and F{\"o}rster, Arnold and Mang, Thomas and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Microfluidic chip with integrated microvalves based on temperature- and pH-responsive hydrogel thin films}, series = {Physica Status Solidi (a)}, volume = {209}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi (a)}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1862-6319}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201100763}, pages = {839 -- 845}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Two types of microvalves based on temperature-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) and pH-responsive poly(sodium acrylate) (PSA) hydrogel films have been developed and tested. The PNIPAAm and PSA hydrogel films were prepared by means of in situ photopolymerization directly inside the fluidic channel of a microfluidic chip fabricated by combining Si and SU-8 technologies. The swelling/shrinking properties and height changes of the PNIPAAm and PSA films inside the fluidic channel were studied at temperatures of deionized water from 14 to 36 °C and different pH values (pH 3-12) of Titrisol buffer, respectively. Additionally, in separate experiments, the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the PNIPAAm hydrogel was investigated by means of a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method. Mass-flow measurements have shown the feasibility of the prepared hydrogel films to work as an on-chip integrated temperature- or pH-responsive microvalve capable to switch the flow channel on/off.}, language = {en} } @misc{AhlbornGerlachIkenetal.2012, author = {Ahlborn, Kristina and Gerlach, Frank and Iken, Heiko and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Vonau, Winfried}, title = {Miniaturisierte, potentiometrische Indikatorelektrode und Verfahren zu deren Herstellung : Offenlegungsschrift}, pages = {7 S.}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{YoshinobuMiyamotoWagneretal.2012, author = {Yoshinobu, Tatsuo and Miyamoto, Ko-Ichiro and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Miniaturized and high-speed chemical imaging systems}, series = {Nano-Biomedical Engineering 2012.

Because of the differences in the multiplicity and substrate specificity of CYP2D family members among species, it is difficult to predict pathways of human CYP2D6-dependent drug metabolism on the basis of animal studies. To create animal models that reflect the human situation more closely and that allow an in vivo assessment of the consequences of differential CYP2D6 drug metabolism, we have developed a novel straightforward approach to delete the entire murine Cyp2d gene cluster and replace it with allelic variants of human CYP2D6. By using this approach, we have generated mouse lines expressing the two frequent human protein isoforms CYP2D6.1 and CYP2D6.2 and an as yet undescribed variant of this enzyme, as well as a Cyp2d cluster knockout mouse. We demonstrate that the various transgenic mouse lines cover a wide spectrum of different human CYP2D6 metabolizer phenotypes. The novel humanization strategy described here provides a robust approach for the expression of different CYP2D6 allelic variants in transgenic mice and thus can help to evaluate potential CYP2D6-dependent interindividual differences in drug response in the context of personalized medicine.}, language = {en} } @article{ReisgenSchleserMokrovetal.2012, author = {Reisgen, Uwe and Schleser, Markus and Mokrov, Oleg and Zabirov, Alexander and F{\"u}ssel, Uwe and Schnick, Michael and Hertel, Martin and Jaeckel, Sebastian}, title = {Modellierung und Visualisierung der MSG-Lichtbogenprozesse}, series = {Schweissen und Schneiden : Fachzeitschrift f{\"u}r Schweißen und verwandte Verfahren}, volume = {64}, journal = {Schweissen und Schneiden : Fachzeitschrift f{\"u}r Schweißen und verwandte Verfahren}, number = {4}, publisher = {DVS Verlag}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {0036-7184}, pages = {166 -- 174}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{AlexopoulosRauHoffschmidtetal.2012, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros and Rau, Christoph and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Breitbach, Gerd and Latzke, Markus}, title = {Modelling and validation of a transient heat recovery steam generator of the solar tower power plant Juelich}, series = {Eurosun 2012 : Solar energy for a brighter future : conference proceedings : Rijeka, 18.-22.09.2012}, booktitle = {Eurosun 2012 : Solar energy for a brighter future : conference proceedings : Rijeka, 18.-22.09.2012}, address = {Rijeka}, pages = {ID 97}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{ReisgenSchleserMokrovetal.2012, author = {Reisgen, Uwe and Schleser, Markus and Mokrov, Oleg and Zabirov, Alexander and F{\"u}ssel, Uwe and Schnick, Michael and Hertel, Martin and Jaeckel, Sebastian}, title = {Modelling and visualisation of the GMA process}, series = {Welding and Cutting}, volume = {11}, journal = {Welding and Cutting}, number = {4}, publisher = {DVS Verlag}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {1612-3433}, pages = {242 -- 249}, year = {2012}, language = {en} }
