Abstract: By treatment with hydrophobins, cellulosic materials such as paper, cardboard, cotton or, especially, wood-based materials, such as solid wood, glued wood products or particle board, can be effectively protected against absorption of and attack by water and/or moisture.

Abstract: The invention relates to a monolithic integrated semiconductor structure comprising a carrier layer on the basis of doped Si or doped GaP and a III/V semiconductor disposed thereupon and having the composition GaxInyNaAsbPcSbd, wherein x=70-100 mole-%, y=0-30 mole-%, a=0.5-15 mole-%, b=67.5-99.5 mole-%, c=0-32.0 mole-% and d=0-15 mole-%, wherein the total of x and y is always 100 mole-%, wherein the total of a, b, c and d is always 100 mole-%, and wherein the ratio of the totals of x and y on the one hand, and of a to d on the other hand, is substantially 1:1, to methods for the production thereof, new semiconductors, the use thereof for the production of luminescence diodes and laser diodes or also modulator and detector structures, which are monolithically integrated in integrated circuits on the basis of the Si or GaP technology.

Abstract: An electronic device that can be pushed onto a support rail (15), having a housing (1), with an electronic module that can be inserted detachably into the housing, and bus contacts are provided for the transmission of data and/or energy to neighboring electronic devices that are pushed onto the support rail (15) and have an identical design, with appropriately designed bus terminal. The bus contacts can be displaced relative to the housing (1). The bus contacts can be immobilized via a latching fixture so that when in a latched position they can be brought into contact of the bus terminals in the neighboring device.
