Abstract: The invention relates to a method for forming a fuel-air mixture and to a fuel supply device for an internal combustion engine, having an intake manifold, into which an air intake tube with an aspirated air metering device disposed in it discharges and to which the intake tubes leading to individual combustion chambers are connected. A plurality of fuel injection valves are provided, each of which is assigned to one combustion chamber, and having a central fuel vaporizer to which fuel can be supplied by means of a fuel metering device. To form a fuel-air mixture, the fuel to be supplied to the engine is vaporized and the fuel vapor is supplied to the aspirated air. In order to lower pollutant emissions after starting during the warmup phase of the engine, vaporization of the fuel is done at relatively low temperatures, so that the fuel vapor produced essentially comprises only highly volatile fuel components.

Abstract: A process for the production of electroluminescent silicon structures, including: placing a silicon wafer in an acid bath; anodizing the silicon wafer in the acid bath using the apparatus of FIG. 2; illuminating the anode side of the silicon wafer during at least part of the time the silicon wafer is being placed in the acid bath and is being anodized; causing at least some areas of the monocrystalline silicon of the silicon wafer to be converted into a microporous silicon layer; and forming two contacts by means of which a voltage can be applied to the microporous silicon layer.

Abstract: A method for finishing surfaces of workpieces includes a honing process with at least two method steps. In one of the method steps the surface, for example, the inner wall of a bore, is honed to a predetermined final dimension whereby a very fine structure with minimal depth of honing traces is generated so that a great portion of the surface functions as the supporting surface. In a further method step, which can be performed before or after the finishing-honing step, crossed grooves are provided in the surface by subjecting the surface to a stream of a medium, especially a laser, whereby the pattern of the grooves provides a lubricant reservoir for the future use of the workpiece. The treatment with a stream of a medium does not cause deformations at the edges of the grooves. This ensures an optimal distribution of the lubricant.
