Abstract: A low profile seal assembly for sealing the open end of a container of an electrochemical cell to provide controlled pressure venting, while effectively preventing resealing of the open end of the cell. An electrochemical cell has a container with a closed bottom and an open top end, positive and negative electrodes disposed in the container, a separator disposed between the positive and negative electrodes, and an electrolyte disposed in the container. The cell further includes a seal member disposed in the open top end of the container for closing the open top end of the container. The seal member has a stress concentrator formed in the seal member for providing pressure relief to vent high pressure gases. A cover is disposed in the open end of the container and substantially covers the seal member, and the cover has at least one opening formed therein. A standoff member is located between a top surface of the seal member and a bottom surface of the cover for keeping at least a portion of the seal member at a distance from the cover to prevent resealing of the seal member when the seal member vents.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for measuring volume flow rates of liquid phase components and gas and determination their volume concentrations in a multiphase mixture along a pipeline. Measurements are executed with an ultrasonic system which includes a set of local acoustic transducers arranged in the interior of the pipeline. Each pair of an emitter and a receiver of the transducer forms a sampling volume of a medium being under control. Volume concentrations of mixture components are determined by timing of passage of acoustic pulses through the sampling volume of the medium. Volume flow rates of the mixture components are calculated by measuring phase velocities and volume concentrations in two pipeline divisions with different cross-section areas located in series at a distance one from the other in flow direction.

Abstract: A stationery form including a single sheet of printable material that has a self-seal contact adhesive applied to edge regions arranged to contact each other when the form is folded about a crease line. Contacting edge regions are releasably adhered when a first pressure is applied to seal temporarily the form in a folded condition such that the form can be opened and re-sealed. The contacting edge regions are non-releasably adhered when a second pressure higher than the first pressure is applied to seal permanently the form in the folded condition. Low pressure sealing may be achieved manually, for example by finger pressure. High pressure sealing may be provided with a pressure sealing machine. A permanently sealed form can be opened by tearing along lines of weakness inboard of the adhesive to remove the bonded regions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for improving the efficiency of epitaxially grown quantum dot semiconductor components having at least one quantum dot layer. The efficiency of semiconductor components containing an active medium consisting of quantum dots is often significantly below the theoretically possible values. The inventive method enables the efficiency of the relevant component to be clearly increased without substantially changing the growth parameters of the various epitaxial layers. In order to improve the efficiency of the component, the crystal is morphologically changed when the growth of the component is interrupted at the point in the overall process at which the quantum dots of a layer have just been covered. The growth front is smoothed at the same time, leading to, for example, a reduction in waveguide loss as the thickness of the waveguide is more homogeneous if the relevant component has one such waveguide. Simultaneously, smoothing the growth front enables the quantum dot layers to be stacked closer together than before, thereby increasing the volume filling factor. The modal gain is thus increased, for example for lasers or amplifiers.
