Abstract: The invention concerns a refill (2) intended to be inserted into a makeup case (1). The refill (2) comprises a vessel containing a liquid makeup, the vessel comprising a tank (6) comprising an open top face forming an opening for dispensing the makeup. The tank (6) is delimited by a side wall (18) in line with the opening and a bottom (22) of the tank. The refill (2) comprises an absorbent complex (7) in the tank (6). The vessel further comprises at least one additional volume (13) outside the tank (6), in fluid communication with the inside of said tank (6). This helps optimise the volume available for containing a liquid make-up, while allowing the latter to be effectively retained in the refill. The invention also concerns an assembly comprising a case (1) and such a refill (2).

Abstract: Method for creation of stressed channel structure transistors wherein at least one amorphizing ion implantation of the surface layer of a substrate of the semiconductor-on-insulator type is carried out through openings in a mask, so as to render zones of the surface layers amorphous and to induce relaxation of a zone intended to form a channel and located between the zones that have been rendered amorphous, the relaxation being carried out in a direction orthogonal to that in which it is intended that the channel current flows.

Abstract: In an embodiment, an applicator includes an external sheath and an internal rod extending through and beyond a first end of the external sheath. A first end of the internal rod may be coupled to a plurality of axial members that extend between the first end of the internal rod and the first end of the external sheath. By actuating a knob coupled to the internal rod, the distance between the first end of the internal rod and the first end of the external sheath may be adjusted. By adjusting the distance, the configuration of the axial members may be adjusted and this adjustment may modify the amount of product that may be stored between the axial members.

Abstract: An overmolding process for a hollow receptacle provided with a neck, and an axial body with a shoulder a sidewall and a bottom, the hollow receptacle, having axial height H and larger cross-section S. When the mould is open, the neck bears in contact with an axial support so as to mask the neck during the overmolding process. Before closing the mold, the sidewall is placed in a lateral positioning device that can be moved along an axial direction of the mold. After the mold has been closed, the lateral positioning device is displaced in the axial direction as the material flow injected into the axial cavity and forming an annular flow.
