Therefore, automated sterilisation equipment at laboratory scale has been constructed using parts from industrial sterilisation facilities. In addition, a software tool has been developed for the control of the sterilisation equipment at laboratory scale. First measurements with the developed sensor set-up as part of the sterilisation equipment have been performed and the sensor has been physically characterised by optical microscopy and SEM.

The polyol method was applied to prepare nanoparticular metal oxides as base materials, which were functionalised by surface doping. Using multi-electrode substrates and high throughput impedance spectroscopy (HT-IS) a wide range of materials could be screened in a short time. Applying HT-IS in search of new selective gas sensing materials a NO2-tolerant NO sensing material with reduced sensitivities towards other test gases was identified based on iridium doped zinc oxide. Analogous behaviour was observed for iridium doped indium oxide.

Ionic conducting polymer-metal electrode interfaces were prepared chemically by using the impregnation-reduction method. The polymer membrane was impregnated with tetra-ammine platinum chloride hydrate and the metal ions were subsequently reduced by using either sodium tetrahydroborate or potassium tetrahydroborate. The hydrogen sensing characteristics with air as reference gas is reported. The sensors were capable of detecting hydrogen concentrations from 10 ppm to 10% in nitrogen. The response time was in the range of 10-30 s and a stable linear current output was observed. The thin Pt films were characterized by XRD, Infrared Spectroscopy, Optical Microscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy and EDAX.

This paper addresses the issue of data analysis for identification of gases in a gas sensor array. We introduce a software tool for gas sensor array configuration and simulation. It concerns thereby about a modular software package for the acquisition of data of different sensors. A signal evaluation algorithm referred to as matrix method was used specifically for the software tool. This matrix method computes the gas concentrations from the signals of a sensor array. The software tool was used for the simulation of an array of five sensors to determine gas concentration of CH4, NH3, H2, CO and C2H5OH. The results of the present simulated sensor array indicate that the software tool is capable of the following: (a) identify a gas independently of its concentration; (b) estimate the concentration of the gas, even if the system was not previously exposed to this concentration; (c) tell when a gas concentration exceeds a certain value. A gas sensor data base was build for the configuration of the software. With the data base one can create, generate and manage scenarios and source files for the simulation. With the gas sensor data base and the simulation software an on-line Web-based version was developed, with which the user can configure and simulate sensor arrays on-line.

T1 - Study of swift heavy ion modified conduction polymer composites for application as gas sensor N2 - A polyaniline-based conducting composite was prepared by oxidative polymerisation of aniline in a polyvinylchloride (PVC) matrix. The coherent free standing thin films of the composite were prepared by a solution casting method. The polyvinyl chloride-polyaniline composites exposed to 120 MeV ions of silicon with total ion fluence ranging from 1011 to 1013 ions/cm2, were observed to be more sensitive towards ammonia gas than the unirradiated composite. The response time of the irradiated composites was observed to be comparably shorter. We report for the first time the application of swift heavy ion modified insulating polymer conducting polymer (IPCP) composites for sensing of ammonia gas.

The developed system allows the identification and selection of “good” ISFETs at the earliest stage and to avoid expensive bonding, encapsulation and packaging processes for nonfunctioning ISFETs and thus, to decrease costs, which are wasted for bad dies. The developed system is also feasible for wafer-level characterisation of ISFETs in terms of sensitivity, hysteresis and response time. Additionally, the system might be also utilised for wafer-level testing of further electrochemical sensors.

Der Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf dem Studium der Gesichtsmuskeln, ihrer Formensprache und ihrer Relation zu den 6 Grundemotionen Traurigkeit, Ärger, Angst, Freude, Ekel und Überraschung (nach dem Modell von Paul Ekman). Alle 6 Emotionen sind in verschiedenen Intensitätsgraden und Variationen behandelt, wobei die Emotion der Freude aufgrund ihrer engen Bindung zum Harlekin-Charakter vergleichsweise umfassender bearbeitet wurde. Das Endergebnis stellt eine Bildreihe von ca. 50 Ausdrücken und eine Abhandlung über Gesichtsmuskulatur und -ausdruck, dessen Relation zu den Emotionen und den Hintergrund des Harlekincharakters dar. Die Illustrationen wurden unter Verwendung der 3D-Technologie von Maya 7.0 und ZBrush 2.0 ausgeführt. N2 - The content and goal of this work is the design of a harlequin-character and the depiction of his range of expression. The focal point lies on the study of the facial muscles, their formal vocabulary and their relation to the 6 basic emotions sadness, anger, fear, joy, disgust and surprise (after Paul Ekman's model). All 6 emotions are treated in different intensities and variations, whereas the emotion of joy is handled in a more profound way because of its close relationship to the harlequin-character. The end result is a series of illustrations of approx. 50 expressions and a treatise on the topic of facial musculature and expression, their relationship to emotions and the background of the harlequin-character. The illustrations were realized using the 3D-technologies of Maya 7.0 and ZBrush 2.0.
