  • Patent number: 8629865
    Abstract: Disclosed is an organic light-emitting device operating similarly to a bipolar transistor. The device includes a collector layer including at least one organic light-emitting layer arranged between a first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode includes a first emitter layer and a first base layer arranged between the first emitter layer and the collector layer, and the second electrode includes a second emitter layer and a second base layer arranged between the second emitter layer. and the collector layer. In case of a display device, the first emitting layer and the first base layer are structured in order to form an array of pixels of first electrodes suitable to be operated separately by an operation unit in a forward bias mode or a reverse bias mode in order to switch light emission of the EL-layer above each pixel on/off.

  • Patent number: 8176767
    Abstract: Exhaust-gas sensors that have a sensor element, which is surrounded by two protective tubes on a side facing the exhaust gas and which is additionally protected by a porous fiber package, are already known. The fiber package is disposed between the two protective tubes and is meant to protect the sensor element from thermal shock by water droplets hitting the sensor element. When the exhaust gas sensor is used as primary catalytic converter or raw emission sensor, the sensor element can get damaged by sulfur compounds contained in the exhaust gas. In the exhaust-gas sensor according to the invention, damage to the sensor element by exhaust-gas components contained in the exhaust gas is reliably prevented. According to the invention, the adsorption means is implemented in such a way that sulfur, phosphorus or silicon compounds are trapped irreversibly.
