Abstract: In the method for optical monitoring and/or determination of properties on samples, monochromatic electromagnetic radiation with a predetermined wavelength is sequentially directed from several radiation sources onto a sample influenced by an electronic evaluation unit. The respective intensity specific to the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation scattered and/or reflected by the sample is detected by at least one detector and fed to the electronic evaluation unit for spectrally resolved evaluation in order to use it to monitor and/or determine properties of the respective sample.

Abstract: A device for detecting or evaluating articles or products, irradiated by a laser beam, for generation of Raman or fluorescence radiation on surfaces of them, and generated radiation is directed to a detector array designed for locally resolved detection of the radiation. Monochromatic electromagnetic radiation with no influence on Raman or fluorescence radiation is directed at the articles or products. Detectors detect radiation reflected or scattered by articles or products in a locally resolved manner. An optical filter or beam splitter is arranged between articles or products and detector array. Irradiation and detection are carried out during relative movement between articles or products, focal range of the laser beam, diodes emitting electromagnetic radiation and detectors of the detector array. Detectors are connected to an electronic evaluation unit designed for locally and spectrally resolved evaluation of detected intensities of Raman or fluorescence radiation and for image analysis.

Abstract: In the arrangement for determining the achievable adhesive strength before forming a connection having material continuity to a surface of a joining partner, a plurality of detectors are present and arranged that are configured for a spatially resolved spectral analysis of electromagnetic radiation within a wavelength interval and are connected to an electronic evaluation unit. They can detect radiation emitted from a broadband radiation source of a reflection incident on the surface of one of the joining partners, and/or after passing through joining partners transparent for the electromagnetic radiation on the detectors. A laterally and temporally homogeneous intensity of the electromagnetic radiation should be observed in this respect. The joining partner is formed from a material that does not 100% absorb the respective electromagnetic radiation and thus a transmission and/or reflection is possible.

Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly for determining the permeation rate of a sample for at least one permeate, in particular water vapor, wherein multiple detectors are arranged in a row or in a row and column arrangement for the spatially resolved spectral analysis of electromagnetic radiation within a wavelength interval. The detectors are connected to an electronic evaluation unit and are arranged such that electromagnetic radiation emitted from a broadband radiation source is incident on the detectors either after being reflected by the surface of the sample, by a layer formed on the sample, or by the surface of a layer within the sample, and/or after passing through a sample which is transparent to the electromagnetic radiation. The irradiation is carried out such that a homogeneous intensity of the electromagnetic radiation is maintained on a surface, by means of which the electromagnetic radiation is reflected or through which the radiation is transmitted.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for determining the permeation rate of barrier materials, with which in a measuring chamber (8.7) which has at least two shut-off elements (81; 8.2) for opening and closing, a concentration of at least one permeate is determined which, present as a test gas with a constant concentration in a test gas chamber (8.3), is permeated into the measuring chamber (8.7) through a barrier element (8.5) which is arranged between the test gas chamber (8.3) and the measuring chamber (8.7) and which has a known permeable surface (A).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for determining the permeation rate of barrier elements and ultra-barrier elements according to an isostatic permeation measurement method. In the process, the convective mass transfer of a permeate permeated through a barrier element is replaced by a diffusion-controlled mass transfer along a diffusion path in a subsequently arranged measurement chamber with a hollow conducting element and permeate sink. The permeate sink ensures that permeate is removed continuously, and so a mass flux equilibrium of the permeate is set through the barrier element and through the diffusion path. The concentration gradient of the permeate and, from this, the permeation rate of the barrier element is then determined by non-invasive determination of the concentration of the permeate along the diffusion path.
