Abstract: A method for evaluating the quality of a component produced by means of an additive laser sintering and/or laser melting method, in particular a component for an aircraft engine, includes at least the steps of providing a first data set, which comprises spatially resolved color values, which each characterize the temperature of the component at an associated component location during the laser sintering and/or laser melting of the component, providing a second data set, which comprises spatially resolved color values corresponding to the first data set, which color values each characterize the temperature of a reference component at an associated reference component location during the laser sintering and/or laser melting of the reference component.

Abstract: The present invention relates to mask blanks with anti reflective coatings comprising at least two sublayers. Such bilayer or multilayer anti reflective coatings are advantageous for binary and phase shift mask blanks for use in lithography for an exposure wavelength of 300 nm or less with improved anti reflection properties; and to EUVL mask blanks having improved inspection properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to attenuating phase shift mask blanks for use in lithography, a method of fabricating such a mask blank.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for dusting printed sheets, which is disposed between the last printing or finishing unit of a printing machine and a print delivery device, comprising one or more nozzles for blowing powder onto the sheet and a conveyor cylinder which moves the sheet to be dusted past the nozzles, wherein the conveyor cylinder is disposed directly after the printing or finishing unit such that the sheet is directly received from the printing or finishing unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a photo mask blank, a photo mask, a method and an apparatus for manufacturing a photo mask blank in general, and for manufacturing a photo mask blank by particle beam sputtering in particular. It is an object of the invention to provide a method of manufacturing a photo mask blank of high quality and high stability that is suitable for the production of a photo mask having small structures. The invention proposes a method for manufacturing a photo mask blank, wherein a substrate and a target are provided in a vacuum chamber. The target is sputtered by irradiating with a first particle or ion beam and at least a first layer of a first material is deposited on the substrate by the sputtering of said target.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for moistening a web-shaped material, wherein the moistening device is designed as a device for mobile use, and wherein the web-shaped material can be laterally pushed into the moistening device.

Abstract: A method for monitoring the amount of moisture sprayed on a moving material web or a roller across their width, with the width being divided into individual measurement areas includes a measuring step, a storing step and further measuring steps. The measurement is made of local droplet flow of the sprayed liquid in the individual measurement areas, storing the measured values as set values, and again measuring the local droplet flow and comprising it to the set values. The device used includes a counting device and an evaluation unit. The counting device registers droplets of the liquid sprayed on the moving material web in a respective one of the individual measurement areas, and generates a signal per registered droplet which is supplied to the evaluation unit.

Abstract: Pulverulent polyamide coating compositions consisting of a mixture of similar polyamides having on the average at least nine aliphatically bound carbon atoms per carbonamide group and of different relative viscosity, the difference in relative viscosities amounting to at least 0.04 and at most 0.1 units.The mixtures are obtained by mixing powders prepared both by precipitation or by cold grinding or also by mixing the corresponding granulates which subsequently are then cold ground.
