Abstract: A silicon carbide device includes: a transistor cell having a stripe-shaped trench gate structure extending from a first surface into a silicon carbide body, the gate structure having a gate length along a lateral first direction, a bottom surface and a first gate sidewall of the gate structure being connected via a first bottom edge of the gate structure; at least one source region of a first conductivity type in contact with the first gate sidewall; and a shielding region of a second conductivity type in contact with the first bottom edge of the gate structure across at least 20% of the gate length. No source regions of the first conductivity type are in contact with a second gate sidewall of the gate structure.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method of detecting particles which move along a trajectory and which produce or at least influence electromagnetic radiation, an electrical field or a magnetic field, wherein the electromagnetic radiation S, the electrical field or the magnetic field is detected, in which a structuring device is used, which either ensures that the particles along the trajectory produce or at least influence electromagnetic radiation, an electrical field or a magnetic field substantially only at non-periodic spatial spacings, or ensures that the electromagnetic radiation S, the electrical or the magnetic field is detected substantially only at non-periodic spatial spacings along the trajectory.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for making a sheet of paper comprising at least two crimped cotton-wool-like cellulose plies (20, 40). It consists in: unwinding a first ply (20) in the form of a strip from a reel, embossing it on an embossing unit (10, 12) and forming protuberances at its surface, unwinding a second ply (40) in the form of a strip from a reel, guiding it downstream of the embossing unit (10, 12), superposing the two strips, with their protuberances facing inwards, and in applying a linking means (14, 16) so as to make the two strips integral with each other. Said method is characterised in that immediately upstream of said linking means (14, 16), a tension regulating means (18) is applied in the machine direction on one of the strips, such that the two strips have the same clastic deformation in the machine direction when the linking means is applied. The invention also concerns a product obtained by said method.
