Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform a printing of a large area, which is mechanized, regarding a stamp device which prints a pattern on the surface of a substrate. SOLUTION: This stamp device which prints a pattern on the surface of the substrate 4 is equipped with a carrier layer 1 having rigidity. The carrier layer 1 is equipped with a first surface and a second surface. On the first surface, a layer 3 on which the pattern is formed, made of a first material, is provided. On the second surface, a soft layer 5 made of a material which is softer than the first material is provided. The layer 3 on which the pattern is formed and the soft layer 5 function while cooperating, and even when a contact surface formed between the stamp and the substrate 4 is not accurately smooth and flat, a printing of a high quality is realized.

Abstract: One or more embodiments of the present invention are directed to a photovoltaic system. The system comprises photovoltaic cells, arranged side-by-side to form an array of photovoltaic cells. It further involves a cooling device, which comprises one or more layers, wherein the layers extend opposite to the array of photovoltaic cells and in thermal communication therewith, for cooling the cells, in operation. The one or more layers are structured such that a thermal resistance of the photovoltaic system varies across the array of photovoltaic cells, so as to remove heat from photovoltaic cells of the array with different heat removal rates, in operation. One or more embodiments of the present invention are further directed to related systems and methods for cooling such photovoltaic systems.

Abstract: A photovoltaic system (1) and related system and method for cooling such photovoltaic system (1) are described. The photovoltaic system (1) comprises photovoltaic cells (10), arranged side-by-side to form an array (5) of photovoltaic cells (10). It further involves a cooling device (20), which comprises one or more layers (21-23), wherein the layers (21-23) extend opposite to the array (5) of photovoltaic cells (10) and in thermal communication therewith, for cooling the cells (10), in operation. The one or more layers (21-23) are structured such that a thermal resistance of the photovoltaic system (1) varies across the array (5) of photovoltaic cells (10), so as to remove heat from photovoltaic cells (10) of the array (5) with different heat removal rates, in operation.

Abstract: A stamp device for lithographic printing comprising a two sided rigid carrier layer 1 providing on its first side a patterned layer 2 made of a first material and being combined on the carrier's second side with a layer 5 made of material softer than the first layer. Preferably the stamp forms a blanket on a printing roller. The soft layer evenly distributes the force exerted through the stamp. The soft layer 5 may either be attached to the carrier 1 or just in contact with it.
