Abstract: The procedure for making holes and especially micro perforations in a composite material consists of testing a sample of the material, then perforating the material using a laser beam at the appropriate temperature using an automatic programme to control the movement of the laser. <??>The procedure for making holes and especially micro perforations in a composite material of mineral or organic fibres in a resin matrix consists of initially testing a sample of the material, using a laser beam directed at right angles to its surface, confining the temperature within the material to a range greater than the melting point of the resin matrix but lower than that causing the physical properties of the fibres to alter. The material itself is then perforated with a laser beam at the appropriate temperature, using an automatic programme to control the laser beam parameters and its movement relative to the material (8). The laser beam generator, comprising a head (10) and a laser emitter (12) connected by an optical fibre (11), has one unit (16) to control the power and focus of the beam and another (15) to change the beam's position, forming perforations of a few square millimeters. An aspiration unit (18) under the e.g. metal grille supporting table (9) removes gases and material residues.

Abstract: An ionic polymer that binds to an ionic polymer such as DNA is identified. In
order to identify an ionic polymer that is positively charged, for example, another,
negatively charged, polymer is immobilized on a substrate or a bead. A
positively charged ionic polymer is adsorbed on the substrate or bead. When the
surrounding ionic environment is suddenly decreased, the adsorbed complex is
stabilized, whereas the structure of the immobilized, non-adsorbed ionic polymer
becomes unstable. By providing the immobilized ionic polymer with a marker
for differentiating a stable structure from an unstable one, it can be determined on
which immobilized ionic polymer the ionic polymer to be identified has been
adsorbed.

Abstract: A projection beam PB is projected onto a substrate W via a mask MA. The direction dependence of the intensity of the beam at the substrate W is controlled by passing the beam through a series of optical elements 120a-b in front of a pupil plane 14. The intensity distribution as a function of position in the pupil plane 14 determines the angle dependence at the substrate W. The optical elements 120a-b, which are preferably arrays of microlenses (or more particularly DOE's: Diffractive Optical Elements) each define an angle dependence of the intensity of the beam PB. The optical elements 120a-b are each arranged to pass a major part of the beam PB substantially without deflection and a minor part with a deflection angle dependent intensity. The major part of the beam is blocked out of the beam behind the series of optical elements 120a-b. As a result an addition of the effects of upon the intensity in the pupil plane 14 is realized.

Abstract: The resilient packet ring (RPR for short) is receiving much attention as a telecommunications network architecture. The RPR consists of dual counter-rotating ringlets and implements a ring protection scheme such as ring wrap and source steering. Topology discovery is an important aspect of the network management of the RPR. Herein described is a new topology discovery algorithm which performs in multiple phases. According to one phase of the algorithm, a station on the ring periodically exchange with only its neighboring stations a control messages containing a topology database. The topology database indicates addresses of stations on the ring and their link status. The algorithm should find applications not only in RPR but also other ring architectures.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a counter electrode for a dye-sensitized solar cell, and a method of producing the same. The dye-sensitized solar cell includes a photoelectrode (10) containing photosensitive dye molecules. The counter electrode (20) is positioned opposite to the photoelectrode (10), and an electrolytic solution (30) is interposed between the photoelectrode (10) and the counter electrode (20). The counter electrode (20) has an electron transfer layer. The electron transfer layer has a structure in which one or more conductive materials, selected from the group consisting of a conductive polymer, platinum nanoparticles, a carbon compound, inorganic oxide particles, and a conductive polymer blend, are sequentially laminated. In the counter electrode (20), the electron transfer layer promotes smooth electron transfer through an interface between the electrolyte, containing pairs of redox ions, and the counter electrode (20). Thereby, energy conversion efficiency is significantly improved in comparison with a conventional dye-sensitized solar cell employing a counter electrode in which only a platinum layer is applied on a transparent conductive material.
