  • Publication number: 20240178622
    Abstract: A connector for determining a temperature of a contact point includes a connector contact element for electrically contacting the connector with a mating connector contact element of a mating connector at the contact point. The connector includes a connector tap for tapping a connector potential at the connector contact element and a mating connector contact probe for determining a mating connector potential of the mating connector contact element. The connector determines the temperature of the contact point from a potential difference between the connector potential and the mating connector potential.

  • Publication number: 20220376134
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure comprises an n-doped first layer, a p-doped second layer doped with a first dopant, and an active layer disposed between the n-doped first layer and the p-doped second layer and having at least one quantum well. The active layer of the semiconductor structure is divided into a plurality of first optically active regions, at least one second region, and at least one third region. Here, the plurality of first optically active regions are arranged in a hexagonal pattern spaced apart from each other. The at least one quantum well in the active region comprises a larger band gap in the at least one second region than in the plurality of first optically active regions and the at least one third region, the band gap being modified, in particular, by quantum well intermixing. The at least one second region encloses the plurality of first optically active regions.
