Abstract: Method for producing a substrate includes establishing a plasma discharge with a locally inhomogeneous density distribution and exposing the substrate to the inhomogeneously density-distributed plasma discharge. The distribution is established by establishing a specified relative movement of the inhomogeneous density distribution and of the substrate and establishing a specified time variation of an electric power signal supplying the discharge and/or of an optionally provided further electric signal which connects the substrate to bias voltage. When the electric power signal or further electric signal is an AC signal, the specified time variation of the signal addresses its modulation and the method includes setting the variation and the movement.

Abstract: A hydrogen fuel cell power system having improved efficiency comprises a fuel cell, a source of hydrogen gas, a compressor for creating a pressurized air stream, and a liquid supply which is heated by waste heat form the power system and evaporates into the pressurized air stream to produce a pressurized air and steam mixture. The pressurized air/steam mixture, which is preferably used as the oxidant in the fuel cell, is combusted with fuel in a burner to produce a high-temperature steam-laden exhaust stream. The high-temperature steam-laden exhaust stream drives an expander to produce a power output, and a power take-off from the expander uses the expander power to, for instance, drive an electrical generator, or drive other system components.; The evaporation of liquid can take place external to the fuel cell, or can take place directly within the fuel cell, preferably using a cooling liquid that is directly injected into the fuel cell. The fuel cell power system advantageously uses the low-temperature waste heat of the fuel cell to evaporate liquid into the pressurized air, resulting in a steam/air mixture having a relatively large expansion potential. The systems and related methods of the invention are applicable to a wide range of fuel cell power systems, including a "pure" or "non-hybrid" fuel cell power system, powered by hydrogen from either an external source, such as a hydrogen storage tank, or from "direct" reforming of a fuel at the anode. The invention is also applicable to integrated or "hybridized" fuel cell power systems which contain a local fuel reformer.; In these systems, the fuel cell is powered by hydrogen-containing reformate generated by the reformer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for transmitting data by means of multiple carrying signals Cs 1 ,...Cs N  through communication channels CH1,...CHN, which method involves a computation of channel parameters hsn (for n=1 to N) representative each of a response of said communication channels to one of said carrying signals.  The method according to the invention includes a preliminary estimation step for generating preliminary estimates hp i  (for i=1 to N), and a secondary estimation step for refining the preliminary estimates hp i  by computing an average value of a correlation parameter, which average value is computed over at least two different carrying signals.  The invention enables to pool together information produced in relation with different channels, and thus to perform almost instantaneously a channel response estimation on the basis of a very limited number of received pilot symbols

Abstract: The invention relates to quantum points showing quantization of the electrical properties thereof, which can be used in an advantageous manner especially in nanoelectronics. However, quantum points are very complicated to accurately design, produce, and incorporate, resulting in an insufficient success rate. The inventive quantum point (QP) is characterized by an embedded structure configured as a cylindrical area having a graphite-type structure (GLC) within an electrically insulating carbon layer (DLCQP) which is provided with a diamond-type structure and is arranged between two electrically insulating layers (IL1, IL2) that maintain said property also following ion passage. Hence, a quantum point that is geometrically and positionally defined with precision is disclosed for the first time in DLC material which is very interesting for nanoelectronics. Said quantum point can have dimensions of less than 8 nm and is particularly suitable for producing a single-electron transistor (SET). Contacting can be done in a simple manner by means of integrated nanowires. The inventive quantum point is easy to produce by irradiating a stack of layers (LS) with an ion beam (IB). The quantum point (QP) and the nanowires (NW) are created in the ion track (IT) by converting the non-conductive carbon (DLC) having a diamond-type structure into conductive carbon (GLC) having a graphite-type structure.

Abstract: Catheter devices, systems and methods for penetrating from one location within a patient's body to another location. An elongate catheter is insertable into a natural or man-made lumen within the body of a patient. A penetrator is advanceable from the catheter to a target location outside of the lumen in which the catheter is positioned. An optical imaging or tissue characterization apparatus (e.g., an optical coherence tomography apparatus) is useable to image the anatomy and/or sense variables within tissue so as to locate the target location relative to indicia of the trajectory on which the penetrator will advance from the catheter. The operator may then adjust the position and/or rotational orientation of the catheter such that when the penetrator is subsequently advanced, the penetrator will enter the target location.
