Abstract: The invention is a method for permanent connection of two components by soldering employing a glass or metal solder as the solder material. A layer system providing adhesion is applied to both components, between which the solder material is introduced. the layer system is heated to a soldering temperature characteristic for the solder material and results in a permanent solder connection between both components after cooling. The layer system providing adhesion has an adhesive layer applicable directly to the component and a solderable layer. The adhesive layer, if a glass solder is used, contains oxidic, carbidic, or nitridic components or mixed compounds thereof and, if a metal solder is used, the adhesive layer contains carbidic or nitridic components or mixed compounds thereof.

Abstract: A method is described for producing a glass pane having at least one edge section delimiting the glass pane, for whose production the glass pane has been severed along the edge section with the aid of a severing procedure comprising a thermal energy introduction. The invention of the glass pane is enclosed at least sectionally and preferably along the entire edge section by a sheath immediately after production of the at least one edge section using a severing procedure comprising a thermal energy introduction.

Abstract: The invention is a method for producing a tool which can be used to create optically active surface structures in the sub-?m range, having a support surface onto which relief surface structures are applied over the support surface by means of material deposition. The invention is distinguished by the support surface being directly contacted with a mask in which openings with diameters in the sub-?m range are provided or can be provided, by the support surface including the mask being subjected to a coating process in which the coating material deposits through the openings of the mask onto the support surface, and the mask is removed from the support surface when a partial amount of an average end structure height of the surface structures is reached and the coating procedure is then continued without the mask using the same coating material or different coating materials.
