Abstract: Magnetic sensors having a ferromagnetic layer structure wherein said layers are interchangeably coupled by means of non-magnetic metal intermediate layers, are used in modern storage technology to read magnetically stored information. If reading is to be precise, accuracy in determining modifiable magnetic resistance should be very high. Accuracy in known magnetic sensors is influenced by intermediate layers of a given constant thickness. Optimization is no longer possible after production. Furthermore, the use of known magnetic sensor is restricted to field sensing. The magnetic resistance of the inventive magnetic sensor can be continuously and reversibly modified and optimized by charging hydrogen on the intermediate layers which consist of Nb exhibiting an affinity with hydrogen or a Cr alloy exhibiting an affinity with hydrogen and having a layer thickness in the core area ranging from 1.3 nm to 1.6 nm. THe inventive sensor can used as a magnetic sensor, specially in comprehensive areas of magnetically-stored information processing, as well as a hydrogen sensor, and can be used to detect totally differing physical measurement variables.

Abstract: During an optoelectronic measuring method, an emitting device sends a sequence of optical impulses during a measuring cycle. A receiving device is provided for receiving reflected signals from a target located in the beam path of the emitting device. Said receiving device amplifies received signals in a signal processing step. The signals are eventually converted and digitized, whereby the individual samples of a digitized received signal are filed in cells of an electronic memory and the samples of other digitized received signals are added in a cophasal manner in these memory cells or with a defined phase displacement with regard to the emitter impulse. The emitted impulse sequences are divided into a plurality of impulse packets or so called "bursts". These bursts are separated by impulse absorption. A received impulse assigned to a target is detected in an electronic computer by means of defined algorithms which are each from the discrete-time, digitized and added received signals of the impulse of every burst. In addition, a distance value is calculated in said electronic computer from the running time of this reconstructed received impulse with regard to a pertaining start impulse. At the end of a measuring cycle, a velocity value for a target is calculated, produced and/or displayed from the plurality of distance values and the assigned measuring times.
