Abstract: In a method of manufacturing light converting devices each in form of a converter element attached on a carrier substrate, a carrier wafer and a converter wafer with lateral dimensions larger than the lateral dimensions of the converter elements are provided. A bond layer is applied to one of the carrier wafer and the converter wafer, and the converter wafer is securely fixed on the carrier wafer via the bond layer, thereby forming a wafer stack. The wafer stack is then separated into pieces such that first of said pieces have the lateral dimensions of the converter elements and do not share any edge with an edge of the wafer stack, said first pieces forming the light converting devices. With this method, a light converting device without any squeezed out bonding material, e.g. glue, is achieved.

Abstract: The composition for the cell-specific transfer of an active compound in specific target cells can be used as a diagnostic or therapeutic agent or for gene therapy. The composition includes virus-like particles, which are each composed of a number of viral protein molecules derived from JC virus, a cationic polymer, for example a polyamine, a polyimine or an amino acid polymer, especially polyethylenimine, as an anchor molecule for a cell-specific ligand, and preferably a ligand bound to the cationic polymer as a binding partner for a cell-specific receptor. The viral protein is advantageously encoded with a nucleic acid having nucleotide sequence as shown by SEQ. ID NO. 1.
