Abstract: Display device, in particular a PALC device, having a plasma space provided with a capsule (46) comprising getter material for supplying guest material to the plasma, e.g. H2, HD, D2. The capsule remains closed until the critical high temperature processing has been finished.

Abstract: A magnetic head (32) having a magnet core (30) of ferrite and a layer of a bonding material (28) consisting of glass in the gap-forming area of the magnet core (38). In order to ensure that on the one hand the ferrite be not attacked by the glass during the bonding process and that on the other hand the temperature adjustment during the bonding process is not too critical, double layer diffusion barriers are provided between the layer of bonding material (28) and the core parts (10) and (10'), respectively, which barriers are formed by a layer of silicon nitride (26) on the side of the bonding layer (28) and a layer of silicon oxide (24) on the side of the core parts (10) and (10'), respectively.

Abstract: Magnetic head for a magnetic recording and playback apparatus includes a core of a Mn--Zn-ferrous ferrite having a very high saturation magnetization. The Mn--Zn-ferrous ferrite has a composition (not counting optional substitutions) according to the formulaMn.sub.a Zn.sub.b Fe.sub.c.sup.II Fe.sub.e.sup.III O.sub.4with0<a.ltoreq.0.550.06.ltoreq.b.ltoreq.0.40.25.ltoreq.c.ltoreq.0.9(a+b+c=1).The result is that the magnetic head may be used in combination with magnetic tapes having a very high coercive force (up to 104 kA/m (1300 Oersted) and may be used for transducing signals having a frequency of a few MHz.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a single crystal of a composite oxide by gradual solidification of a melt with solidification starting from a seed crystal which initially is in contact with the melt, is provided wherein to obtain a single crystal having a composition which is as homogeneous as possible (homogeneous within 1 mol. %) the following measures are taken: first, initially the melt consists of no more than 25% by weight of the single crystal to be grown; and second, during the solidification process molten material is added to the melt at the same rate and having the same composition as material solidifies out from the melt.

Abstract: A novel non-magnetic monocrystalline garnet substrate material in the form of calcium--gallium-germanium garnet. Single crystals of calcium-gallium-germanium garnet can be grown at mush lower temperatures by means of the Czocharalski method than single crystals of the conventional rare earth-gallium garnets. These single crystals are very suitable to epitaxially grow bubble domain films thereon, in particular films on the basis of Lu.sub.3 Fe.sub.5 O.sub.12.
