Abstract: Various embodiments describe an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit includes at least seven planar field effect transistors provided in a common substrate next to one another with a maximum feature size in accordance with a technology node of a maximum of 65 nm. Each field effect transistor of the at least seven planar field effect transistors includes a first source/drain diffusion region, a second source/drain diffusion region, a channel region between the drain diffusion region and the source diffusion region, and a gate terminal. Each field effect transistor of the at least seven planar field effect transistors includes at least one common source/drain diffusion region with another field effect transistor of the at least seven planar field effect transistors. The common source/drain diffusion regions are free of vertical terminal contact material.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a device for monitoring the state of roads, infrastructure and traffic, including a plurality of sensor elements, wherein the sensor elements are arranged along at least one section of a road. The sensor elements each have a housing with an underside and an upper side. Furthermore, at least one sensor is provided for detecting a measured parameter, wherein the sensor is connected to an evaluation device arranged in the housing, in particular for autonomous evaluation of the measured parameter is acquired. The evaluation device is designed in such a way that an event and/or a state can be determined from the detected measured parameter.

Abstract: A self-tapping screw having a head and an outer thread carrier with an end at which the outer thread has an outer diameter decreasing towards the end, at least over a part of the length thereof ending at the end, and the outer diameter of the outer thread decreases according to the draft angle of holes in which the screw is to be set.

Abstract: A process for the production of in particular fiber-reinforced thermoplastic parts in an injection molding machine, wherein the process includes bringing together a polymeric precursor, an activator and a catalyst, wherein the injection molding machine has a first plasticising screw and a second plasticising screw respectively arranged in a plasticising cylinder, wherein the polymeric precursor and the activator are mixed with the first plasticising screw without addition of the catalyst and are substantially liquefied and the polymeric precursor and the catalyst are mixed with the second plasticising screw without addition of the activator and are substantially liquefied, whereupon the contents liquefied with the two plasticising screws are mixed and jointly introduced into an injection molding mold and substantially only there polymerised to afford the plastic part.

Abstract: A method for the continuous and uniform application of controlled amounts of treating liquor on a liquid receptive material web comprising passing the web over a counter-roll having a resilient, non-skid surface and then passing the web onto an applicator roll with a metallic cylinder surface that has been dipped into a vat of treating liquor and making the treating liquor a uniform film on the roll. The treating liquor is tested before use by placing a quantity of the liquor in a mixing container, rotating the container for a first period and measuring the volume of treating liquor plus foam that develops in the container, and making two subsequent volume readings after further periods of time, adding all of the volume readings and comparing the sum with a standard value, and also determining that each volume reading is less than the preceding reading, and rejecting treating liquor which does not meet the foregoing requirements.
