Abstract: The invention relates to a fuel-cell system comprising a fuel cell and a number of secondary units for starting and operating the fuel cell. According to the invention, to improve the dynamics of the operating cycle of the fuel cell system, for example if the fuel cell system is to be cold started or restarted immediately after the system has been switched off, a device for switching on/off the fuel cell and the secondary units is provided. Said device allows at least individual secondary units and/or the fuel cell to be switched on/off or switches on/off said units and the cell independently of one another. The stepped switch-off of the fuel-cell system permits, for example, the secondary units that are necessary for a rapid re-start to remain in operation and thus be maintained at the required operating temperature, whereas less important secondary units can be switched off. The invention also relates to a method for switching on/off a fuel-cell system of this type.

Abstract: The invention provides an edge insulation piece (1) comprising a thin sheet of material (2) which is manipulated by bending, rolling or other forming to effect a long conductive path within a small cross-sectional area. In a preferred embodiment, a thin layer of insulation material (3) is interleaved between two layers of the thin sheet of material (2), which is folded around the insulation layer (3) during forming of the edge piece (1). A further layer of insulation material (4) may be rolled within the edge piece (1) as it is. This interleaving of thin layers of insulation material (3, 4) prevents the surfaces of the thin sheet of material (2) from touching each other and also insulates the material (2) from the top and bottom panels (5, 6) of a vacuum insulation panel (7) when the edge piece (1) is inserted around the edge of the panel (7). The edge piece (1) may be further coated over part or all of its length with a low emissivity material (13) to minimise radiative losses. Alternatively or additionally the coating (13) may comprise a gas impermeable layer to form a gas impermeable barrier.

Abstract: Anti-reflective coating materials for ultraviolet photolithography include at least one absorbing compounds and at least one pH tuning agent that are incorporated into spin-on materials. Suitable absorbing compounds are those that absorb around wavelengths such as 365 nm, 248 nm, 193 nm and 157 nm that may be used in photolithography. Suitable pH tuning agents not only adjust the pH of the final spin-on composition, but also influence the chemical performance and characteristics, mechanical performance and structural makeup of the final spin-on composition that is part of the layered material, electronic component or semiconductor component, such that the final spin-on composition is more compatible with the resist material that is coupled to it. More specifically, the pH tuning agent strong influences the polymeric characteristics, the structural makeup and the spatial orientation that results in increasing the surface properties of the anti-reflective coating for optimal resist performance. In other words, a pH tuning agent that merely adjusts the pH of the spin-on material without influencing the mechanical properties and structural makeup of the spin-on composition or the coupled resist material is not contemplated herein. A method of making absorbing and pH tuned spin-on materials includes combining at least one organic absorbing compound and at least one pH tuning agent with at least one silane reactant during synthesis of the spin-on materials and compositions.

may communicate with the controller. When the dependent moves outside the communication
range of the controller, the dependent should be within communication range of a
