Abstract: The invention relates to a quartz glass blank for an optical component for transmitting radiation with a wavelength of 15 nm and shorter. Said blank consists of a highly pure quartz glass, doped with titanium and/or fluorine, which is characterised by an extremely high degree of homogeneity. The homogeneity relates to the following characteristics: a) micro-inhomogeneities caused by a local variance of the TiO2 distribution (< 0.05 % TiO2, averaged over a volume element of (5µm)3 in relation to the mean value of the TiO2 content), b) an absolute, maximum inhomogeneity in the thermal expansion coefficient Δα in the main functional direction (< 5 ppb/K), c) a radial variance of the thermal expansion coefficient over the usable surface of the quartz glass blank by a maximum 0.4 ppb / (K'cm); d) a maximum stress birefringence at 633 nm in the main functional direction of 2nm/cm, with a specific progression and e) a specific progression of the Δα, averaged according to (b) on the optical surface. Said quartz glass blank can only be obtained from a large volume rod-type starting body consisting of doped quartz glass that has been produced by the flame hydrolysis of a compound containing silicon, titanium and/or fluorine, said starting body being formed into a homogeneous quartz glass blank using several forming and homogenising steps.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for detecting a force on an injection moulding machine for processing plastic materials. According to said invention, a first element (100) interacting with a mechanical drive and movable at least indirectly thereby in a direction of movement (x) is displaced during said displacement with respect to a second element (200) positioned near the first element (100) or oppositely thereto. A force measuring device (D) is used for determining the force applied on the first (100) and/or second (200) element by the actuation of the injection moulding machine produced by the relative displacement thereof between the first (100) and second (200) elements. A hydraulic chamber whose size is modifiable during the relative displacement associated with a change in pressure of a fluid medium in said hydraulic chamber is firmed between the first (100) and second (200) elements, wherein said change in pressure forms an input signal for adjusting the force or pressure and a pressure-relief valve (30) is used for bypassing the hydraulic medium to a hydraulic medium container (35), when the predetermined or predeterminable presser is exceeded in the hydraulic chamber (10), thereby making it possible to obtain a device and method for detecting a force on an injection moulding machine which makes it possible to determine said force in a favourable alternative manner and simultaneously ensure an overload protection.
