Abstract: A method for fabricating a ferroelectric device includes providing a lower electrode layer on a substrate, forming a retention enhancement layer by oxidizing a surface of the lower electrode layer using a gas phase oxidation process, and depositing a ferroelectric high-k metal oxide layer over the retention enhancement layer on the lower electrode layer using a vapor deposition process. The retention enhancement layer on the lower electrode layer increases the retention performance and reliability of the ferroelectric device.

Abstract: A method of adapting a Lab setpoint color value of multicolored printed products, wherein a special color is replaced by process colors using an ICC color profile. A measurement point that is assigned to the replaced special color on the printed product is metrologically acquired using a color measuring system and a Lab actual color value of the measurement point is calculated. The ICC color profile or a standardized ICC color profile is used for computing the color composition of the Lab setpoint color value from the participating process colors. Changes of the layer thicknesses of the participating process colors are ascertained to achieve a predetermined Lab setpoint color value of the measurement point using a digital tool or a digital model. The participating process colors are adapted using the ascertained changes of their layer thicknesses.

Abstract: A method for separating gaseous carbon dioxide from a gas mixture by cyclic adsorption/desorption using a sorbent material adsorbing said gaseous carbon dioxide, wherein the method comprises the following sequential and in this sequence repeating steps: (a) an adsorption step; (b) and isolating step; (c) injecting a stream of saturated or superheated steam and thereby inducing an increase in internal pressure of the reactor unit and an increase of the temperature of the sorbent from ambient atmospheric temperature to a temperature between 60 and 110° C.

Abstract: A method transforms color values of a first device-dependent color space into the color values of a second device-dependent color space so that the visual impression of the color represented in the two-color spaces is essentially identical. The transformation of the color values combines at least one absolute rendering intent and at least one relative rendering intent.

Abstract: A method for printing documents with security elements carried out by two separate, computer-supported systems. The computer-supported systems each have a printing system with a printing machine and a security system that perform steps of preparing a document with placeholders for the security elements in the image data by the computer of the security system, and transmitting the document to the printing system. The image data is converted into an output color space of the printing machine by the computer of the printing system, and the document is transmitted to the security system. The security elements are generated, and replacement of the placeholders with the security elements by the computer of the security system is performed. The document is transmitted to the printing system. The finished document is printed with the security elements by the printing machine of the printing system.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a ventilation element for an article of apparel, footwear, or a sports accessory, including: a first surface, including a foam; a second surface; where the first surface and the second surface are spaced apart, creating a void, so that air may circulate between the first surface and the second surface.

Abstract: A method for automated process control of a printing machine system by using a computer includes the steps of applying a set of rules including process parameters to be examined by the computer to detect whether and when process control is required. The values of the process parameters are made available to the computer by respective responsible components of the printing machine system. The computer is used to implement process control and the computer is used to evaluate process control results. The computer is used to implement actions that are deemed necessary based on the evaluation of the results and the computer is used to save the established data of the implemented process control.

Abstract: Described are bags having a sack-like body formed of knitwear. The knitwear includes a first layer and a second layer, wherein the first layer at least partly overlaps the second layer, and wherein the first layer and the second layer are knitted integrally in a one-piece knitting process.

Abstract: A turning fastener for a shoe has a pulling means with two end portions, which act on a take-up reel, which is provided with an annular groove for receiving the pulling means, a rotatable mounting of the take-up reel with a bearing journal, which engages in a bearing, a holder, which can be fastened to the shoe, for the rotatable mounting, and an engageable and disengageable directional locking mechanism, which in the engaged position blocks the take-up reel in one direction of rotation for closing the shoe and in the disengaged position releases it in this direction of rotation. The take-up reel is formed as a rotary grip, wherein two through-openings, extending from the annular groove to the end face of the take-up reel that is facing away from the holder, are provided for leading one or the other end portion of the pulling means through.
