  • Patent number: 11490473
    Abstract: In an apparatus for thermal treatment of substrates, a gas discharge lamp runs in a simmer mode in standby operation. A constant power supply may be connected to the gas discharge lamp via a first switch. At least one charged capacitor may be connected to the gas discharge lamp via a second switch. A thermal treatment of the end side of a substrate with a duration of between 20 milliseconds and 500 milliseconds is provided in a manner governed by light absorption. This time window is advantageous for thermal treatment of coatings having a thickness of 2 to 200 micrometers, wherein the temperature of the rear side of the substrate can remain below that of the end side. The temperature on the end side can be significantly increased by the gas discharge lamp being connected to the capacitor via the second switch at the end of the time window.

  • Patent number: 11152590
    Abstract: A method and a device for hermetically encapsulating components using at least one gas discharge lamp, an inorganic material that is transparent for light and a light-absorbing inorganic medium, are provided. With a suitable selection, inorganic materials or inorganic media guarantee a very low level of permeability for oxygen, water vapor and reactive gases in contrast to organic materials or organic media. The encapsulation occurs in a time period of less than one second. In addition, the average temperature of the component only increases slightly, such that even components with temperature-sensitive regions can be encapsulated.

  • Patent number: 10786982
    Abstract: A method for separating different types of material layers of a composite component that has at least one material layer that is transparent for visible light and at least one further material layer, is provided, wherein the light from an external source falls through the at least one transparent material layer into the at least one further material layer and there is at least partially absorbed. With the help of at least one gas discharge lamp, the light-absorbing material layer is heated in less than one second to separate material layers of the composite component. A device that can be used for this method comprises at least one separation chamber and therein at least one gas discharge lamp suitable for irradiation.
