Abstract: A composite element includes: an outer holder; and an inner component which is held in the outer holder under a compressive stress, the outer holder and the inner component adjoining one another along a contour line which is closed, the contour line including two linear portions and two connecting portions, the two linear portions opposing one another and extending in a straight line, the two connecting portions connecting the two linear portions to form the contour line as closed, at least one of the two connecting portions having an arcuately extending curved region.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided which can be worn on the body or implanted into the body, such as in the form of a pulse watch and/or a smartwatch and/or an implant. The electronic device includes a photoplethysmographic measuring device. A transmitter diode and a receiver diode are arranged under a window made of glass or glass ceramics. The window is implemented as a compression glass seal and/or as a fiber-optic plate.

Abstract: An electronic device that can be worn on the body or introduced into the body includes: a casing having a top and a bottom and an inorganic support including an opening and composed of a plurality of components; and at least one window made of at least one of glass or glass ceramic provided on the bottom. The window is secured in the inorganic support and seals the opening in the inorganic support.

Abstract: A body, such as a lamp body, includes a tubular element. At least one conductor is introduced into the tubular element and a glass material surrounds the conductor. The glass material forms a seal between the tubular element and the conductor. The glass material includes a sintered glass, such as a sintered glass ring, and may completely surround the conductor.

Abstract: A biocompatible composite element for a bioreactor is provided that includes an outer frame and an inner component. The outer frame is a polymeric material. The outer frame can be inseparably attached to a wall of the bioreactor. The inner component is a transparent material selected from a group consisting of glass, sapphire, and glass ceramic. The inner component is secured in the outer component in an inseparable hermetically tight manner. The inner component is configured for a spectral process control through the transparent material of the inner component.
