  • Patent number: 11935755
    Abstract: A semiconductor laser includes a substrate having a semiconductor layer sequence with an active layer that generates light during operation of the semiconductor laser, and a contact layer on a bottom side of the substrate opposite the semiconductor layer sequence, wherein the contact layer has at least one first partial region and at least one second partial region which are formed contiguously, the at least one first partial region is annealed, and the at least one second partial region is unannealed.

  • Publication number: 20240036757
    Abstract: Content is captured and archived at an archive center (AC) and, depending upon records management (RM) policy, is managed by the AC or under RM control by a content server (CS). Both the AC and CS may be part of an enterprise content management system. The AC provides a user-friendly interface through which retention zones may be defined, and functionality for applying RM policy. The functionality can be triggered via a specific content property or through a retention zone under RM control. The RM control can be turned on or off from within the AC using the user-friendly interface. Archived content is not moved or duplicated. Rather, metadata and a link to the storage location are sent to the CS which, in turn, creates a content server document that is linked to the archived content. Only a portion of archived content is exposed to the CS through the AC.

  • Publication number: 20230253776
    Abstract: An electrical system forming part of a solar power plant is described. The electrical system includes a plurality of photovoltaic (PV) panels, a power converter, and a controller. In response to a detected electric arc on the DC side of the power converter, the controller is configured to enable a short circuit state of the power converter by controlling semiconductor switches of the power converter (e.g., turning on some or all of the semiconductor switches) to create a short circuit between DC input terminals of the power converter. The short circuit path though the power converter will extinguish the detected electric arc in the connected DC circuit.

  • Patent number: 11503013
    Abstract: A cloud computing environment receives a request from a client. The request relates to access of an application executing in the cloud computing environment and it encapsulates a certificate. This certificate is then translated into an authorization graph descriptor which, in turn, is used to traverse a certificate authorization graph to identify a match within a certificate repository. In response to the identification of the match, an access token is requested including the authorization graph descriptor. The access token is then encapsulated in the request which is then forwarded to an authentication service which provides access to the application if there is a match of the authorization graph descriptor against pre-defined authorization requirements. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 11420038
    Abstract: A breaker device (1) for acting onto a closure element (40) of a medical tubing (4) comprises a drive arrangement (2) having an electric drive device (20) and a drive element (23) driven by the drive device (20), and a breaker module (3) which is arrangeable on the drive arrangement (2). The breaker module (3) comprises a housing (30), a movable part (31) movably arranged on the housing (30) and a breaking element (315) for acting onto the closure element (40) of the tubing (4), wherein the breaker module (3) in an attached state is placed on the drive arrangement (2), the drive element (23) being in operative connection with the movable part (31) in the attached state such that a movement of the drive element (23) causes the movable part (31) to move for actuating the breaking element (315). A control device (5) serves for controlling the electric drive device (20) for driving the drive element (23).
