  • Device and method for projecting a marking onto a boundary
    Patent number: 7771074
    Abstract: The invention concerns a device for projecting a linear optical marking onto at least one boundary of a room, such as floor surface for example, comprising a light source (12) that emits laser radiation along an optical axis (16) as well as a cuboid lens (14) connected in series with the light source, penetrated by the optical axis and reflecting as well as refracting the radiation. To facilitate fanning and reflecting of light originating from the light source through constructively simple means, the invention proposes that provided in the frontal surface (20) is a channel-shaped depression (40) and provided in the rear surface (22) is a projection (24), both of which are geometrically designed and arranged so that the radiation can be totally reflected and that totally reflected radiation striking the depression can be fanned out, where the optical marking runs to both transverse surfaces of the lens.

  • Use of lecithin as a medication for the treatment of psoriasis
    Patent number: 7759325
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for the prevention and treatment of recent and old dermatitis, especially psoriasis, using lecithin or a lecithin-rich extract. According to one embodiment, phospholipids constituting the lecithin are esterified by Omega 3-type polyunsaturated fatty acids, in particular by docosahexaensic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or by an alkyl glycerol. The lecithin can be of marine origin, extracted from a marine organisms such as fish, shrimp, krill, zooplankton, algae, and phytoplankton, which are advantageous in that their phospholipids, especially phosphatidylcholine, are naturally esterified by Omega 3 fatty acids, and essentially by DHA and EPA.

  • Optical devices using a penternary III-V material system
    Patent number: 7759672
    Abstract: The invention relates to the design and processing of a semiconductor optical device. The device is formed of at least four layers of III-V compounds in which one consists of the penternary AlGaInAsSb material. The structure is wet etched in order to form optical ridge waveguides. One such device has incorporated two waveguides which are connected through a new junction design which can be made by wet etching. In one design the junction and waveguides consists of wet etched AlO.90GaO.10AsSb cladding around a core of AlO.28GaO.72AsSb in which an active layer composed of AlO.22InO.22GaO.55AsSb/InO.29GaO.71AsSb quantum wells is embedded. The resulting device is a erdge junction laser which has single mode emission and emits a narrow line width. We made and tested a device in the 2.34 müm to 2.375 müm wavelength area and found it to have an emission line width of around 0.5 nm.
