Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor body, the method comprising: forming a mixture of an organic semiconducting material and a binder material; causing the semiconducting material to at least partially solidify; and causing the binder material to crystallize in such a way as to cause the semiconducting material to at least partially segregate from the binder material.

Abstract: System and method for generating an electronic signature to authenticate data includes generating a private and a public key using the last value in a hash chain formed from the private key as a starting point, signing a message m, using a distinct set of hash chains using a second secure hash value of the message m and a counter c, selecting a block offset using the hash value of the selected chains, the message m, and the counter c, generating the signature from the selected seals and the counter. The electronic signature validity is verified by synchronizing a verification unit with a source of a signed message, computing expected chains by hashing the signed message m and a counter c with a first hash function, computing a set of expected block offsets by hashing the signed message m, counter c, and computed chains with a second hash function.

Abstract: A (bio-)chemical assay on sensing objects (4) e.g. for use as a drug screening assay on living cells, as well uses and a method for making such an integrated system is proposed.

Abstract: A holding device that can be braced in a surveying machining together with an individual preparation model produced by dental laboratory techniques. The holding device has a mechanically stable frame with bores disposed at a distance (a) to one another, in which at least two holding pins are locked that can be displaced at least in the axial direction (A).

Abstract: The invention features polymeric biomaterials formed by nucleophilic addition reactions to conjugated unsaturated groups. These biomaterials may be used for medical treatments.
