  • HIGHLY DEFORMABLE AND THERMALLY TREATABLE CONTINUOUS COILS AND METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20200082973
    Abstract: Described herein are anodized continuous coils containing a thin anodized film layer and methods for making and using the same. The anodized continuous coils include an aluminum alloy continuous coil, wherein a surface of the aluminum alloy continuous coil comprises a thin anodized film layer. The anodized continuous coils maintain the anodized film layer during deforming processes.

  • Carrier substrate for Raman spectrometric analysis
    Publication number: 20040023046
    Abstract: A process for surface-enhanced Raman spectrometric analysis of substances comprises the steps of providing substances to be analyzed, providing a carrier-layer with a multiplicity of nanobodies for receiving the substances to be analyzed, the multiplicity of nanobodies formed on at least one side of the carrier layer, whereby each nanobody has a rod-like stem area lying on the carrier layer and at least two branch elements formed on the stem area, and the density of the branch elements is a least 108/cm2; locating the substances on the carrier layer; and irradiating the substances to provide a Raman scatter.

  • Method of making structured surface with peak-shaped elements
    Patent number: 5975976
    Abstract: Structured surface, having a support layer and, connected electrically to it, peak-shaped elements, each peak-shaped element exhibiting a cylindrical or conical shaped stem region adjacent to the support layer and at least two, preferably 2 to 4 peaks at the free end of the stem region. The structured surface is suitable in particular as electron emission source for ultra-flat image screens, for electron lithography or for scanning or transmission microscopy.
