A device for contact-based capture of human autopodial prints using disturbed total internal reflection, comprising a protective body with a contact surface, a sensor layer comprising light-sensor elements in an array for detecting light of a predefined wavelength range, and a light guide. Passband areas transparent for light of the predefined range are between the sensor elements. The light guide is transparent to light in the range and includes parallel lower and upper faces. The faces define a coupling-in surface for light emitted from a light source in a limited angular range around a preferred direction. Due to the directed angle of incidence, light entering the light guide is totally internally reflected at the faces. A mirror layer between the sensors and the guide reflects some light back into the light guide and transmits other light. Light exiting the guide is homogenized dependent upon a distance to the light source.

Traditionally, sol-gel silicates have been reported as being high temperature processable at 400 C to give reasonably dense films that showed good leakage current densities (<5×10−8 A / cm2). Recently we have discovered that we are able to prepare films from particular combinations of sol-gel silicate precursors that cure at 135° C. to 250° C. and give good leakage current density values (9×10−9 A / cm2 to 1×10−10 A / cm2) as well, despite the decrease in processing temperatures. These are some of the first examples of silicates being cured at lower temperatures where the leakage current density is sufficient low to be used as low temperature processed or solution processable or printable gate dielectrics for flexible or lightweight thin film transistors. These formulations may also be used in the planarization of stainless steel foils for thin film transistors and other electronic devices.

The present invention relates to a method of increasing the bioavailability of angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) by preparing a combination of the ARB and at least one solubility enhancer. The present invention particularly relates to solubility enhancers that not only function as solubility enhancers but also improve the dissolution rate in particular in acidic or weakly acidic media where the dissolution of ARBs is minimal.

Combinations of ARBs and solubility enhancers can be incorporated into immediate or controlled release or other suitable modified release formulations. Immediate release formulations comprising ARB compositions have an in vitro release of at least 40% in acidic media (pH<3). Thus, the bioavailability of the ARB can be increased by at least 20%, as measured by Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-∞.

During operation of an electro-absorption modulator, an optical signal is conveyed, using an optical waveguide in the electro-absorption modulator, to a semiconductor layer that substantially fills a gap between two portions of the optical waveguide. Then, the optical signal is electro-absorption modulated by selectively applying a voltage to electrodes that produces an electric field, approximately perpendicular to the midline of the optical waveguide, in the semiconductor layer. These electrodes are coupled to the edges of the semiconductor layer at the periphery along the width of the semiconductor layer by intervening layers. Furthermore, the intervening layers include a material that has a lower index of refraction than the semiconductor layer, and a lower optical absorption than the electrodes.

The invention relates to an optical waveguide for guiding light in a predefined wavelength range, the optical waveguide comprising core and cladding regions for confining light, the core and / or cladding region or regions being formed on a substrate and comprising material of the stoichiometric composition SiaOxNyXzH. The invention further relates to a method of manufacturing an optical waveguide, an optical waveguide obtainable by the method and an optical device comprising such a waveguide. The object of the present invention is to provide an optical waveguide with low optical loss due to a reduced hydrogen bond-originated absorption. The problem is solved in that X is selected from the group of elements B, Al, P, S, As, Sb and combinations thereof, and the ratio y / z is larger than 1. This has the advantage that a low optical absorption in the waveguide may be achieved, possibly over a broad wavelength range. Further, a relatively low annealing temperature may be used yielding a relatively low induced strain whereby a low birefringence may be achieved. The optical waveguide may e.g. be manufactured by PECVD, which is ideal for the further processing of low loss waveguides. Waveguides according to the invention show superior transmission characterized with losses below 0.05 dB / cm between 900 nm and 1600 nm. In particular the absorption due to the second overtone of the Si:N—H vibration may be lowered to a value below the detection level. The invention may e.g. be used for the optical communications systems, in particular for branching components (e.g. splitters) and components for wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems, e.g. telecommunication systems, fibre-to-the-home, etc.
