Abstract: In a method for evaporating a non-gaseous starting material, the starting material is introduced into an evaporation chamber; an evaporation element heats the starting material to create a vapor; a conveying gas flow transports the vapor through a conveying channel and past a sensor, which measures the concentration or partial pressure of the vapor in the gas flow flowing through the conveying channel; and the mass flow of the vapor through the conveying channel is controlled by varying the conveying gas flow with respect to a setpoint value. To keep the vapor flow largely constant over time, a compensating gas flow is fed into the conveying channel at a mixing point disposed between the evaporator and the sensor. A second mass flow controller controls the mass flow of the compensating gas flow such that, when the conveying gas flow varies, the gas flow flowing past the sensor remains constant.

Abstract: A device for depositing a layer, which has been structured by the application of a mask, on a substrate, includes an adjusting device for adjusting the position of a mask support with respect to a support frame. The device also includes, a mask lifting device, by which the support frame, together with the mask support, the adjusting device and a mask assembly, can be vertically displaced from a mask changing position into a processing position. The device also includes a substrate holder lifting device, by which the substrate holder can be vertically displaced from a loading position into a processing position. Restraining means, which include a V-groove and a spherical surface, restrain the substrate holder in the processing position on the support frame. The spherical surface, formed by a ball element of the support frame, is supported on flanks of the V-groove that is formed by the substrate holder.

Abstract: A device for depositing a layer on a substrate, while a mask is placed on the substrate, includes an adjustment device for adjusting the position of a mask carrier with respect to a support frame. The adjustment device has, on the support frame, an adjustment lever that is mounted to rotate about an axis of rotation of a pivot bearing and that has a first and second arm. The second arm acts on the mask carrier, and a control rod that can be vertically displaced by an actuator acts on the first arm. For a vertical adjustment device, the second arm and the first arm extend in a horizontal direction, in which the second arm acts on a push rod that is connected to the mask carrier. For a horizontal adjustment device, the second arm extends in a vertical direction and the first arm extends in a horizontal direction.

Abstract: A device for depositing a layer onto one or more substrates includes a process chamber; a gas inlet element, which can be temperature-controlled, for delivering a process gas into the process chamber in a flow direction towards the substrates; a shielding element, arranged directly after the gas inlet element in the flow direction and which, when in a shielding position, thermally insulates the gas inlet element and the substrates from each other; mask holders arranged after the shielding element in the flow direction, each for holding a mask; and substrate holders for holding at least one of the substrates, each substrate holder corresponding to one of the plurality of mask holders. For each of the substrate holders, a displacement element is provided for displacing the substrate holder from a position distant from the mask holder to a position adjacent to the mask holder.

Abstract: The invention refers to a method for use by a first node in an ad-hoc WLAN, which first node maintains a table of other nodes within the network which can be used for forwarding messages. The method comprises the step of letting the first node receive a first signal from a second node, and additionally comprises the steps of: -letting the first node analyse the signal received from the second signal, -if the second node is already present in the table maintained by the first node, the signal strength is compared to a first predetermined comparison level, -if the second node is not present in the table, its signal strength is compared to a second predetermined comparison level, -if the signal strength from the second node exceeds the relevant comparison level, the first node decides that the second node may be used in the table.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the metered delivery of low volumetric flows by the introduction of a gaseous stream into a tank containing a liquid and the displacement of the liquid through a liquid conduit. To improve said method, a partial gaseous stream is diverted from a mass-flow controlled gaseous stream, at a pressure that is maintained at a constant level and that essentially corresponds to the gaseous pressure in the tank, and is guided into said tank to displace the liquid, the mass flow of the partial gaseous stream being measured. A variation in the pressure allows a partial gaseous mass-flow to be set, whose volumetric flow, determined by taking into consideration the gas density, corresponds to the desired value for the liquid volumetric flow.
