The fabrication of the Gunn diode chips was based on total substrate removal and processing of integrated Au heat sinks. Especially, the thermal and RF behavior of the diodes have been analyzed by DC, impedance and S-parameter measurements. The electrical investigations have revealed the functionality of the hot electron injector. An optimized layer structure could fulfill the requirements in adaptive cruise control (ACC) systems at 77 GHz with typical output power between 50 and 90 mW.}, subject = {Biosensor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PijanowskaRemiszewskaPederzollietal.2006, author = {Pijanowska, Dorota G. and Remiszewska, Elzbieta and Pederzolli, Cecilia and Lunelli, Lorenzo and Vendano, Michele and Canteri, Roberto and Dudzinski, Konrad and Kruk, Jerzy and Torbicz, Wladyslaw}, title = {Surface modification for microreactor fabrication}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1480}, year = {2006}, abstract = {In this paper, methods of surface modification of different supports, i.e. glass and polymeric beads for enzyme immobilisation are described. The developed method of enzyme immobilisation is based on Schiff's base formation between the amino groups on the enzyme surface and the aldehyde groups on the chemically modified surface of the supports. The surface of silicon modified by APTS and GOPS with immobilised enzyme was characterised by atomic force microscopy (AFM), time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy (ToF-SIMS) and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The supports with immobilised enzyme (urease) were also tested in combination with microreactors fabricated in silicon and Perspex, operating in a flow-through system. For microreactors filled with urease immobilised on glass beads (Sigma) and on polymeric beads (PAN), a very high and stable signal (pH change) was obtained. The developed method of urease immobilisation can be stated to be very effective.}, subject = {Biosensor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BukhariYang2006, author = {Bukhari, Syed Faisal Ahmed and Yang, Wuqiang}, title = {Multi-interface level sensors and new development in monitoring and control of oil separators}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1498}, year = {2006}, abstract = {In the oil industry, huge saving may be made if suitable multi-interface level measurement systems are employed for effectively monitoring crude oil separators and efficient control of their operation. A number of techniques, e.g. externally mounted displacers, differential pressure transmitters and capacitance rod devices, have been developed to measure the separation process with gas, oil, water and other components. Because of the unavailability of suitable multi-interface level measurement systems, oil separators are currently operated by the trial-and-error approach. In this paper some conventional techniques, which have been used for level measurement in industry, and new development are discussed.}, subject = {Biosensor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{TymeckiGlabKoncki2006, author = {Tymecki, Lukasz and Glab, Stanislaw and Koncki, Robert}, title = {Miniaturized, planar ion-selective electrodes fabricated by means of thick-film technology}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1506}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Various planar technologies are employed for developing solid-state sensors having low cost, small size and high reproducibility; thin- and thick-film technologies are most suitable for such productions. Screen-printing is especially suitable due to its simplicity, low-cost, high reproducibility and efficiency in large-scale production. This technology enables the deposition of a thick layer and allows precise pattern control. Moreover, this is a highly economic technology, saving large amounts of the used inks. In the course of repetitions of the film-deposition procedure there is no waste of material due to additivity of this thick-film technology. Finally, the thick films can be easily and quickly deposited on inexpensive substrates. In this contribution, thick-film ion-selective electrodes based on ionophores as well as crystalline ion-selective materials dedicated for potentiometric measurements are demonstrated. Analytical parameters of these sensors are comparable with those reported for conventional potentiometric electrodes. All mentioned thick-film strip electrodes have been totally fabricated in only one, fully automated thickfilm technology, without any additional manual, chemical or electrochemical steps. In all cases simple, inexpensive, commercially available materials, i.e. flexible, plastic substrates and easily cured polymer-based pastes were used.}, subject = {Biosensor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KraftRetkowitz2006, author = {Kraft, Bodo and Retkowitz, Daniel}, title = {Rule-Dependencies for Visual Knowledge Specification in Conceptual Design}, year = {2006}, abstract = {In: Proc. of the 11th Intl.

Neither the support while elaborating conceptual sketches, nor the automatic proof of correctness with respect to effective restrictions is currently provided by any commercial tool. To enable domain experts to store the common as well as their personal domain knowledge, we develop a visual language for knowledge formalization. In this paper, a major extension to the already existing concepts is introduced. The possibility to define rule dependencies extends the expressiveness of the knowledge definition language and contributes to the usability of our approach.}, subject = {CAD}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{UibelBlass2006, author = {Uibel, Thomas and Blaß, Hans Joachim}, title = {Load Carrying Capacity of Joints with Dowel Type Fasteners in Solid Wood Panels}, series = {Proceedings.
