Abstract: A diode comprising a light-sensitive germanium region which is totally embedded in silicon and forms with the silicon a lower interface and lateral interfaces, wherein the lateral interfaces do not extend perpendicularly, but obliquely to the lower interface and therefore produce a faceted form.

Abstract: An electro-optic modulator for the modulation of optical radiation of a predetermined wavelength, the electro-optic modulator having at least one optical resonator in which a standing optical wave can be formed for the predetermined wavelength. In the resonator, at least two doped semiconductor sections—as seen in the longitudinal direction of the resonator—are arranged at a distance from one another, and the at least two doped semiconductor sections respectively lie locally at an intensity minimum of the standing optical wave.

Abstract: An improved multi-beam shape supplementary device, more particularly for mobile radio antenna systems, is distinguished, inter alia, by the following features: the multi-beam shape supplementary device comprises a site sharing adapter (A) in the form of a primary adapter (PA), the site sharing adapter (A) has at least two primary connections (A1, A2, A3) for connecting at least two primary control units, the plug and/or connection configuration or connection assignment at the primary connections (A1, A2, A3) are connection-compatible with the connections on the coupling connection side (KoAn) of the site sharing adapter (A), the pin or socket connections (14; 3, 5) provided for the bidirectional signal transmission in the site sharing adapter (A) are connected to a connection pin or a connection socket (3)—provided for the bidirectional signal transmission—of the coupling connection (KoAn) with the formation of a bidirectional signal transmission path, and the bidirectional transmission path is designed such

Abstract: A Thermostatic Flow Controller composed of two capillary tubes and a tube form receiver, placed in thermal contact with the suction line. It makes a robust, hermitic closed device, without any moveable parts, no need for adjustment or service and therefor suited for inaccessible placement—for instance encapsulated in isolation foam. The flow of refrigerant to the evaporator is controlled by the pressure in the receiver—and the pressure in the receiver is controlled by the need for refrigerant in the evaporator. This balance ensures that the evaporator is flooded, and thereby exploited 100%—for all kind of charges. The invention is suited for small household freezers and refrigerators. For a small extra cost, it replaces the traditional capillary tube, and makes these devices working optimal on both cold and warm locations, and makes the manufacturing more easy because the amount of refrigerant is no longer critical as it is for traditional capillary tubes.
