Patent CA-2624927-A1 (CA)
Title: Light-emitting material
Inventor: NAZEERUDDIN MOHAMMAD KHAJA
IPC: C09K11/06
Filed: 2006-10-06
Abstract: This invention pertains to light emitting materials comprising novel ortho-metalated transition metal complexes [C~N]2ML, comprising chelate monoionic ligands (L), also called ancillary ligands. It has been surprisingly found that when the ancillary ligand comprises a substituted aromatic ring bearing a substituent possessing adequate electron-donating properties, said ligand (L) advantageously participates in the emission process, significantly shifting emission towards higher energies (blue-shift) and enabling appreciable improvement of the emission efficiency of complexes [C~N]2ML. Still objects of the invention are the use of said light emitting materials and organic light emitting device comprising said light emitting material.

Patent CA-2632920-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WYATT ALISTAIR DAVID RICHFIELD
IPC: F16K1/44
Filed: 2006-12-14
Abstract: Some water drain valves tend to fill with water which may freeze, thereby jamming the valve. This invention provides an aircraft water drain valve comprising a passageway, a shaft, a first sealing member and a second sealing member. The shaft is moveable between an open position in which the first and second sealing members are arranged to allow free passage of fluid through the passageway, and a closed position in which both the first and second sealing members are arranged to prevent free passage of fluid through the passageway thereby preventing ingress of fluid into the region between the first and second sealing members. Thus water may be hindered from collecting and freezing in the part of the valve close to the cold wall of the fuel tank.

Title: High performance adsl line conditioner system and method
Inventor: PONGANIS EDWARD P
IPC: H04M1/00
Filed: 2006-12-07
Abstract: A DSL line conditioner achieves high performance sufficient to simultaneously support video, voice and data signals on standard telephone twisted pair lines (102, 104, 106, 108) over substantially greater distances than are currently available. The line conditioner (100) automatically adjusts and sets the upstream preamplifier (112) and downstream preamplifier (122) gains and attenuations according to the actual degradation imposed upon the upstream and downstream signals by the twisted pair line in which the line conditioner is used. The line conditioner achieves high performance by optimizing the signal-to-noise ratio and signal quality of DSL signals, and has a low power budget that enables it to operate by deriving power from the twisted pair lines over which it is used.
