Abstract: A doctor blade band is disclosed. The doctor blade may be used for cutting individual doctor blades for printing technology, in particular for gravure printing, flexographic printing and/or screen printing. The doctor blade band includes a flat and elongate base body with a working edge region formed in a longitudinal direction. The doctor blade band has continuous predetermined breaking points running at defined intervals along the longitudinal direction transversely to the longitudinal direction.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for controlling extraction of landfill gas from a landfill. The techniques include obtaining a measure of pressure in the gas extraction system upstream of a flow control mechanism, wherein the measure of pressure is obtained at a point between at least one well and the at least one flow control mechanism. Further, at least one processor may be used to determine that the measure of pressure in the gas extraction system relative to a measure of atmospheric pressure outside of the gas extraction system is not negative. In response to determining that the measure of pressure in the gas extraction system relative to the measure of atmospheric pressure is not negative, the flow rate of landfill gas being extracted from the at least one well is adjusted using the at least one flow control mechanism to achieve a negative pressure in the gas extraction system.

Abstract: Silicon photonics adds optical functionality to electronic integrated circuits allowing leveraging CMOS fabrication processes, integration of CMOS electronics discretely and integration of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) or Micro-Opto-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MOEMS) elements. Further, silicon photonics allows hybrid or monolithic integration of semiconductor photodetectors for optical receivers in conjunction with the passive silicon photonics and active elements such as semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and laser diodes (LDs) for coherent detection receivers for next generation systems. Accordingly, it would be beneficial to provide network designers with silicon photonic receivers for wavelength division multiplexed networks using direct or coherent detection which can dynamically select one or more channels from a large number of incoming channels whilst addressing the inherent issues that silicon photonics and other optical waveguide technologies exhibit such as polarisation dependency.
