  • Publication number: 20220043248
    Abstract: A method for high-resolution imaging includes illuminating a target region of a specimen by first and second illumination light beams during respective holding durations to transfer respective subsets of fluorophores from a first into a second state. The fluorophores emit fluorescence photons upon transition from the second back into the first state, which are used to produce respective raw images. The illumination light beams have different power and/or beam profiles. A high-resolution image is produced from the raw images. The respective holding durations are shorter than a lifetime of a third state of the fluorophores, into which a third subset of the fluorophores is transferred by the illumination of the target region by the first and/or second illumination light beam, and the lifetime of the third state is longer by a factor of at least 2 than a lifetime of the second state.

  • Patent number: 4891728
    Abstract: A circuit arrangement for limiting the switch-on current and for providing an over voltage protection in switch mode power supply devices. The circuit arrangement has an input-end storage capacitor which forms a low-ohmic voltage source for a connected power supply arrangement. A power supply device of this type is to be provided with a circuit which both limits the switch-on current and also provides a protection against over voltages across the storage capacitor. This is achieved with the assistance of a field-effect transistor which is arranged between the supply voltage source and the storage capacitor and which is controlled both by an amplifier in terms of current limitation and by a delay element in terms of delayed switch-on. The power supply device is particularly suitable for plug-in assemblies having voltage inverters for the supply of electrical communications transmission technology equipment.

  • Patent number: 4695785
    Abstract: A circuit arrangement for feeding an electrical load, solar generator provides that the current output by the solar generator has a prescribed ratio to the measured value which is a measure for the short-circuit current of the solar generator. Such a circuit arrangement has an optimally-high efficiency. This is achieved with comparatively low expense in that the short-circuit current of the solar generator is measured pulse-wise. The circuit arrangement can be employed with particular advantage for charging batteries in solar systems.
