Abstract:
In a process for the combinatorial production of a library of materials in the form of a two-dimensional matrix in the surface region of a planar substrate by sputtering, the planar target used for the sputtering is arranged in parallel to the planar substrate and has surface regions of different chemical composition.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for combinatorially producing a library of materials by means of an electrochemical deposition in an array. The inventive library is made from an array of containers that consist of an electroconductive material, are open to the top and are electroconductively connected to a shared current supply device and is made from a corresponding array of auxiliary electrodes that are electroconductively connected to a shared current supply device and are arranged in such a way that an auxiliary electrode plunges into a container respectively or can be introduced therein without touching said container. The inventive method comprises the following steps: filling the containers with electrolytes having different compositions and containing electrolytically separable elements and applying an electric voltage between the current supply devices of the containers and auxiliary electrodes for obtaining an electrolytic deposition on the surfaces of the containers.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for the automated production and iterative automated optimization of a substance library and/or at least one reaction parameter relating to a performance characteristic comprising at least two substances comprising the steps of: a) defining at least one production parameter and at least one test parameter; b) automated preparation of a substance library by producing at least two substances on the basis of the at least one production parameter; c) automated testing of the at least two substances of the substance library with respect to at least one performance characteristic on the basis of the at least one test parameter; d) evaluating the test using electronic data analysis; e) varying the at least one production parameter and/or the at least one test parameter for optimizing the performance characteristics, and single or repeated repetition of steps b) to e) or c) to e); characterized in that the steps b) to e) are carried out in an integrated automated process.
Abstract:
A process is provided for transferring and releasing substances which are air-sensitive or moisture-sensitive or light-sensitive, or air-sensitive and moisture-sensitive, or air-sensitive and light-sensitive, or moisture-sensitive and light-sensitive, or air-sensitive, moisture-sensitive and light-sensitive, at least one substance (20) which is air-sensitive or moisture-sensitive or light-sensitive, or air-sensitive and moisture-sensitive, or air-sensitive and light-sensitive, or moisture-sensitive and light-sensitive, or air-sensitive, moisture-sensitive and light-sensitive. The process comprises removing the substances after preparation under a protective gas atmosphere, from a synthesis chamber, wherein, during said removing, the substances are surrounded by at least one means (32, 34) for protecting the substances and then transferring the substances to at least one test reactor (50, 60), wherein the transfer takes place in a protective-gas-free chamber and at least one substance (20) is freed in the test reactor (50, 60) from the means (32, 34) protecting it using at least one apparatus or by means of at least one process.
