Abstract: The photonic neuron nodes of the three-dimensional photonic artificial intelligence networks of the present invention constructed of cone optical fibers and spiral optical fibers are extremely small, occupying an area of less than 15 µm x 15 µm / 2.5 µm, therefore for example a 40 mm x 40 mm/ 25 mm optical array can accommodate up to seventy billion neurons. The energy consumption of the invention, which the inventors called an INFROTON-type artificial neuron network is extremely low due to its the small size and the use of passive optical elements.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lighting device (1) for generating white light which has at least one strip of three light diodes (LEDs) (2) in a linear arrangement, wherein: a) each LED strip (2) has two outer LEDs (3) and one center LED (4); b) each of the two outer LEDs (3) and the center LED (4) are phosphor-converted white LEDs; and c) the distance of each of the color coordinates of the two outer LEDs to the color coordinates of the mixed light of the two outer LEDs and the center LED is smaller than the distance of the color coordinate of the center LED to the color coordinates of the mixed light of the two outer LEDs.

Abstract: The invention relates to a packaged LED module (1) comprising a module (2) having at least one LED (3) arranged thereon, and a one-piece package (10, 100) having a receptacle for the module (2), a substantially optically transmissive region (11, 11a, 11b, 11c), which makes it possible to emit light from the LED (3) towards the outside, an opening (16) and potting blocking means (17). The package (10, 100) is embodied in such a way that a potting component is introduced via the opening (16) into the package (10, 100) equipped with the module (2). The introduced potting component forms a potting body (30), which completely fills the package (10, 100), excluding a region between the LED (3) and the substantially optically transmissive region (11, 11a, 11b, 11c) on account of the potting blocking means (17), and which connects the package (10, 100), the module (2) and connecting cables (20) that can be connected to the module (2) in an externally sealing manner.

Abstract: A coating ensuring the controlled release of a biological active ingredient, which can be incorporated in the coating or is surrounded thereby, consists of a varnish-forming polymer selected from the group which consists of cellulose triacetate containing polyethylene glycol as an emollient and vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer with glycerol as an emollient, and an aqueous phase dispersed in the polymer and consisting of particles of a diameter up to 20 microns, the aqueous phase making up 2% to 30% of the volume of the coating. The active ingredient is preferably a pharmaceutical agent affecting the circulatory system or a psychotropic agent.
