Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for projecting an image, which is made of pixels, onto a projection surface, including at least one light source whose intensity can be altered and which emits a light beam, also including a deflection device which deflects the light beam onto the projection surface, and a two-stage transformation lens system which is arranged between the deflection device and the projection surface. The invention also relates to optical systems for adjusting the angle of an incident light beam by means of a two-stage transformation lens.

Abstract: A resonance scanner, wherein a frame (3), a drive plate (4), a mirror (5) and torsion springs (6, 7) form an actuator part (1), said drive plate (4) being attached within the frame (3) by two first torsion springs (6) such that the drive plate (4) can oscillate about a common first axis of torsion (8) of both torsion springs (6), said mirror (5) being attached within the drive plate (4) by two second torsion springs (7) such that the mirror (5) can oscillate about a common second axis of torsion (9) of both torsion springs (7), and said first axis of torsion (8) and said second axis of torsion (9) being parallel to each other; wherein, further, only the frame (3) of the actuator part (1) is attached to side walls (10) of a box-shaped stator part (2), a drive means (stator electrodes 15 or coil 24) is arranged at a bottom (11) of the stator part (2) only in the region of the geometrical surface area of the drive plate (4) and said bottom (11) has a recess (13) in the region of the geometrical surface area of t

Abstract: In a magnetic bearing in which a first part (1, 20) is mounted magnetically relative to a second part (3, 10) and the second part (3, 10) has a Type II superconducting material (2) containing an anisotropic crystal or a plurality of grains formed of this anisotropic crystal, this crystal being anisotropic in that the superconducting current flows in current-carrying planes, the first part (1, 20) has a configuration of magnets (1; 6, 7, 8; 11, 12, 13, 14; 30, 31, 32, 34; 50, 51, 52, 53) with which the superconducting material (2) interacts, and the crystal itself or the crystal in the plurality of grains faces the first part (1, 20) with the normals on the current-carrying planes (a-b).

Abstract: A directly modulatable laser comprising an active medium inside a laser cavity formed by a resonator mirror and an out-coupling mirror, and a pump light source exciting the active medium. It is characterized in that the active medium generates radiation of two wavelengths (&lgr;1 and &lgr;2) and the resonator mirror is constructed as a controllable reflector by which the reflectivity is controllable for each of the two wavelengths (&lgr;1 and &lgr;2) and the controllable reflector is connected with a control unit, wherein the reflection factor is controlled in such a way that the inversion density of the electrons which is generated in the active medium is constant and the light output of one of the wavelengths ((&lgr;1) is controllable between a minimum value and a maximum value according to an applied control signal, wherein the control of the two wavelengths ((&lgr;1 and &lgr;2) is carried out in push-pull.
