Abstract: The invention relates to methods of adding identifier sequences to polynucleotides of an array. The identifier sequences comprise a plurality of nucleotide blocks. Also provided are arrays of polynucleotides having identifier sequences, microparticles comprising said arrays, a plurality of 5 said microparticles, surfaces comprising said arrays, kits and methods for generating libraries using the array, methods for determining the accuracy of sequencing or amplification an array, and methods of analysing said libraries.

Abstract: A method is provided for electrically driving a motor having a plurality of phase windings such that EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) is improved and the running performance of the motor is simultaneously kept constant. At least one of the phase windings is not supplied with a current pulse during a complete revolution of the rotor, or at least one switchable electrical resistor is switched on, for at least one subsequent commutation phase by means of an electrical switching element, if the detected rotor speed is greater than the specified target speed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an X-ray detector having an X-ray sensor (first X-ray sensor) converting X-radiation directly into electric charge carriers, having signal evaluation electronics electrically connected to the X-ray sensor and preferably formed as integrated circuit(s), having an X-ray absorber formed for protecting the signal evaluation electronics, and having a sensor carrier (first sensor carrier) formed and arranged for positioning the X-ray sensor relative to the X-ray absorber, wherein, viewed in the direction of incidence of the X-radiation, both the signal evaluation electronics are arranged behind the X-ray absorber and in the X-radiation shadow thereof and the X-ray sensor is admittedly likewise positioned by means of the sensor carrier preferably arranged between the X-ray absorber and the signal evaluation electronics at least sectionally behind the X-ray absorber, but outside the X-radiation shadow thereof.

Abstract: The invention concerns the field of electrical, materials and mechanical engineering and relates to the use of flexible magnetic thin layer sensor elements, which can be used for measuring magnetic flux density in electromagnetic energy converters and magnetomechanical energy converters. The aim of the invention is to specify the use of flexible magnetic thin layer sensor elements in electric machines and magnetic bearings, which can be placed in air gaps without substantially limiting the air gap widths.
