Patent number: 10573690Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a radiation detector used to detect ionizing radiation including a first inorganic-organic halide Perovskite material (24) as a direct converter material and/or as a scintillator material in a detector layer and to a radiation detector comprising a detector layer (24) produced by means of the steps of the method. In order to provide an approach for producing a thick layer (e.g. above 10 ???) of Perovskite material suitable for a radiation detector, it is proposed to grow the material selectively on a seeding layer (23), yielding in a thick polycrystalline layer. One suitable seeding layer (23) to grow lead Perovskite material is made of a bromide Perovskite material.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2016Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Herbert Lifka, Joanna Maria Elisabeth Baken, Reinder Coehoorn, Paulus Albertus Van Hal, Herfried Karl Wieczorek, Helga Hummel, Cornelis Reinder Ronda, Matthias Simon

Patent number: 10305067Abstract: The invention relates to a substrate (2) for manufacturing an organic conversion device for converting electrical energy into light energy or light energy into electrical energy, wherein the substrate comprises a) an encapsulation layer (3) on the substrate, wherein the encapsulation layer includes a first inorganic layer (7), a second inorganic layer (9) and an intermediate organic layer (8), and b) a getter reservoir (6) in contact with the organic layer of the encapsulation layer. Water molecules will therefore not only be transported along the intermediate organic layer, but will also be gathered, especially absorbed, by the getter reservoir, if the encapsulation is damaged. This can slow down a transport of water molecules along a leakage path towards an organic conversion layer of the organic conversion device and hence slow down a possible degradation of the performance of the organic conversion device, if the encapsulation layer is damaged.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2015Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: OLEDWorks GmbHInventors: Stefan Peter Grabowski, Herbert Lifka, Peter Van De Weijer, Rainald Manfred Gierth, Jens Meyer, Manfred Stephan Ruske, Helga Hummel

Publication number: 20170271621Abstract: The present invention relates to a current-light conversion device (1), such as an OLED or an OPVD, wherein the current-light conversion device comprises a substrate (10), a current-light conversion arrangement (11) comprising a current-light conversion material (111) provided between a first and a second electrode layer (110, 112), and a barrier layer (12) comprising a transparent organic layer (121) provided between a first and a second transparent inorganic barrier layer (120, 122). A getter material is provided in the transparent organic layer (121) in a pattern of getter dots (1210). Since the getter material is provided in a pattern of getter dots (1210), the light scattering effect resulting from dispersed getter particles can be avoided, resulting in improved transparency characteristics of the barrier layer (12) while still providing the desired getter functionality.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2015Publication date: September 21, 2017Inventors: Herbert LIFKA, Roy Gerardus Franciscus Antonius VERBEEK, Petrus Cornelis Paulus BOUTEN, Peter VAN DE WEIJER, Matheus Godefridus Johannus BEL, Manfred Stephan RUSKE, Rainald Manfred GIERTH, Jens MEYER, Stefan Peter GRABOWSKI, Helga HUMMEL

Publication number: 20090227897Abstract: A patient presses a finger concurrently against a needle (14) of a collection container (12) and a fingerprint surface (22, 52). In one embodiment, the patient's fingerprint is read electronically by a scanner (24) and correlated with a container serial number (16). In another embodiment, the patient's fingerprint is embossed in a foil layer (52). An analyzer assembly (40, 40? 40?) analyzes the biological sample and reads either the container serial number or scans the fingerprint carrying layer (52) and sends the test results and either the fingerprint or container identification to a patient memory (30). Using the fingerprint information, a processor (32) correlates the test results with a record (60) of a corresponding patient. Alternately or additionally, the analyzer assembly includes a DNA analyzer (70) which measures preselected DNA characteristics (76) of the sample.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2005Publication date: September 10, 2009Applicant: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS N.V.Inventors: Matthias Wendt, Andreas Boos, Gerhard Spekowius, Peter K.
