The nano-structure layer includes a plurality of nano-photonic structures that are configured in a first configuration such that light incident upon the nano-structured layer below a cutoff angle passes through the nano-structured layer and light incident upon the nano-structured layer above the cutoff angle is reflected back in direction of the incidence.

Abstract: A light-emitting device includes a semiconductor diode structure with one or more light-emitting active layers, an anti-reflection coating on its front surface, and a redirection layer on its back surface. Active-layer output light propagates within the diode structure. The anti-reflection coating on the front surface increases transmission of active-layer output light incident below the critical angle ?C. Active-layer output light incident on the redirection layer at an incidence angle greater than ?C is redirected to propagate toward the front surface at an incidence angle that is less than ?C. Device output light is transmitted by the front surface to propagate in an ambient medium, and includes first and second portions of the active-layer output light incident on the front surface at an incidence angle less than ?C, the first portion without redirection by the redirection layer and the second portion with redirection by the redirection layer.

Abstract: Embodiments use successive refinement to allow a user to systematically explore the result set of an arbitrary query over RDF, such as a SPARQL query. A user inputs an arbitrary base query and modifies this query by replacing selected variables with values to which each selected variable is bound within the result set of the base query. Embodiments present, via a GUI, variable facets that may be substituted for query variables. Embodiments also present, through a GUI, a query history graph that represents query versions that a user has created. A user may navigate this query history graph to return to previously-created query versions. The GUI also provides information about the facets, including a number of results that would be included in the result set of the query version resulting from substitution of the facet for the associated variable.

Abstract: This invention describes ways of obtaining nano-particulated adjuvants formed by different synthetic variants of GM3 ganglioside. Depending on the fine structure of the fatty acid in the ceramide of the synthetic GM3, said adjuvants are able to stimulate specifically and in a specialized way the humoral or cellular immune response against accompanying antigens. Particularly, this invention provides immunogenic vaccine compositions that comprise peptides, polypeptides or proteins and the aforementioned nanoparticles, which are formed through the dispersion of hydrophobic proteins of the outer membrane complex (OMC) of Neisseria meningitidis in solutions containing fully synthetic variants of the GM3 ganglioside.

Abstract: A known volume of liquid is delivered to a liquid supply system. A first pressure of the liquid supply system after delivery of a first known volume of liquid into the liquid supply system is determined. A second pressure of the liquid supply system after delivery of a second known volume of liquid into the liquid supply system is determined. The volume of compressible gas trapped in the liquid supply system is determined from the second known volume of delivered liquid and the first and second pressures.

Abstract: This invention is, in general, related to the technological field of packaging of vegetable products, such as whole fresh fruits and vegetables that tend to have certain surface microbial load. Specifically, this invention relates to a new cardboard packaging which is characterised by having an antimicrobial active coating based on a polymeric compound in combination with essential oils forming inclusion complexes with cyclodextrins. Vapours of essential oils are emitted from the cardboard as sufficiently high relative humidities are reached in the vicinity of this coating which is next to the packed product, and these vapours have an antimicrobial action against fungi, yeasts and bacteria, which both spoil product quality and are pathogenic for consumers. This new packaging significantly achieves increasing food safety and the shelf life of foods packed therein.
