Abstract: Charged particle microscopy systems, sensors, and techniques are provided. A charged particle sensor can include a housing, configured to be incorporated into a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The charged particle sensor can include a detector cell, mechanically coupled with the housing. The detector cell can include an acceptor layer including a semiconducting material characterized by a bandgap equal to or greater than about 2.0 eV. The acceptor layer can define a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface. The detector cell can include a first conducting layer disposed on the first surface, a second conducting layer disposed on the second surface, a first contact, electrically coupled with the first conducting layer, and a second contact, electrically coupled with the second conducting layer.

Abstract: A signal lighting device or lighting device, for a motor vehicle headlight, including light sources for emitting light rays and a light guiding body (LGB) with two light-emitting surfaces (LESs). The LGB includes a beam splitting device with a total internal reflection surface (TIRS), which totally reflects part of the incident light rays and deflects them from the light guide main propagation direction to one of the LESs. The TIRS has individual optical structures (OS), which allow incident light rays to pass through to the other LES. Each OS is designed as a recess in the TIRS, the recess, starting from an opening in the LGB, being delimited by lateral surfaces extending into the LGB. One lateral surface (the base surface) is oriented such that light rays pass through it toward the first LES.
