  • Patent number: 10509001
    Abstract: A device for analyzing substances in a sample on the basis of a measurement of nuclear magnetic resonances including a magnetic field device configured to generate a magnetic field. The device is configured such that, in order to detect magnetic resonances induced in the sample by the generation of the magnetic field, provision is made of at least one magnetic field sensor which comprises at least one sensitive component with diamond structures. The diamond structures have nitrogen vacancy centers.

  • Patent number: 10488470
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for measuring a current using a diamond material. The diamond material has at least one nitrogen deposit and an imperfection in a crystal lattice of the diamond material, adjacent to the nitrogen deposit. The method comprises a providing step, a detecting step and an evaluating step. In the providing step, electromagnetic waves are provided to excite the diamond material. In the evaluating step, an intensity of a fluorescence of the diamond material is detected. In the evaluating step, the intensity and a frequency of the electromagnetic waves are evaluated in order to determine a magnetic field strength influencing the fluorescence.

  • Patent number: 10134498
    Abstract: A plasmon generator comprises a plasmon supporting surface and first and second quantum systems respectively defining first and second quantum states with a tunneling junction being present between the first and second quantum systems, the first and second quantum systems being present in an electric circuit to generate a tunneling current between the first and second quantum systems, whereby electrons tunneling between said first and second quantum states loose energy in the process and generate plasmons at the plasmon supporting surface.

  • Patent number: 9621996
    Abstract: A micromechanical sound transducer system and a corresponding manufacturing method, in which the micromechanical sound transducer system includes a substrate having a front side and a back side, the substrate having a through opening extending between the back side and the front side, and a coil configuration on the front side having a coil axis, which runs essentially parallel to the front side, the coil configuration covering the through opening at least partially. Also provided is a magnet device, which is situated so as to allow for an axial magnetic flux to be generated through the coil configuration. The coil configuration has a winding device which has at least first winding sections made from at least one layer of a low-dimensional conductive material, the coil configuration being configured to inductively detect and/or generate sound.

  • Publication number: 20140103779
    Abstract: A microelectromechanical component and a method for producing a microelectromechanical component includes a charge-storing layer that has improved long-term stability. The charge-storing layer is completely enclosed by dielectric layers such that there is a high potential barrier between the charge-storing layer and the dielectric layers. During normal operation, it is not possible to overcome this high potential barrier and, as a result, the stored charge carriers are maintained over a very long period of time.
