Patent number: 10159547Abstract: Apparatus for three-dimensionally measuring a row of teeth, having, on a shaft, an autonomously movable measuring head including a central measuring member and at least two lateral measuring members movably interconnected and defining a variable measurement space. The head, placed on a row of teeth, is guided therealong using guiding elements. Measuring units in the measuring members measure structures in the measurement space. Measurements are taken from multiple solid angle positions of the measuring units, the positions being preset in the measuring members, being adjusted by moving the measuring members, being taken by having mirrors move, in a controlled manner, the beam path generated by the measuring units, or being aligned by changing the angular position of the head relative to the shaft in an automatically controlled manner.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2015Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: Quarz Partners AGInventors: Werner Mörmann, Albert Mehl

Patent number: 7045273Abstract: A process for the amplification of structured resists utilizes a reaction between a nucleophilic group and an isocyanate group or thiocyanate group to link an amplification agent to a polymer present in the photoresist. The isocyanate group or the thiocyanate group in addition to the nucleophilic group form a reaction pair. One of the partners is provided on the polymer and the other partner on the amplification agent. The amplification reaction takes place more rapidly than a linkage to carboxylic anhydride groups. Furthermore, the amplification reaction permits the use of polymers that have high transparency at short wavelengths of less than 200 nm, in particular 157 nm.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2002Date of Patent: May 16, 2006Assignee: Infineon Technologies AGInventors: Jens Ferbitz, Werner Mormann, Jens Rottstegge, Christoph Hohle, Christian Eschbaumer, Michael Sebald
