Title: Manfred Jansen: Innovator in Dielectric Coatings and Heated Surfaces
Introduction
Manfred Jansen is a notable inventor based in Geilenkirchen, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of materials science, particularly in the development of dielectric coatings and heated surfaces. With a total of four patents to his name, Jansen's work has had a considerable impact on various industries.
Latest Patents
One of Jansen's latest patents is for a dielectric-layer-coated substrate and installation for production thereof. This invention relates to a substrate, especially a glass substrate, that is coated with at least one dielectric thin-film layer deposited by sputtering. The process involves magnetically enhanced sputtering and preferably reactive sputtering in the presence of oxygen and/or nitrogen, with exposure to at least one ion beam from an ion source. The dielectric layer exposed to the ion beam has a refractive index that can be adjusted according to the parameters of the ion source, which is a linear source.
Another significant patent is for a heated pane with an electrically-conductive surface coating. This invention describes a heated window that features an electrically conducting surface coating, which can be connected as a heating element to a voltage source using two current-collecting rails. The window is divided into a heated look-through region and an additional heated region, with the current flow in the additional region being roughly perpendicular to that in the look-through region.
