Abstract: A partial beam splitter includes a substrate including a substrate material; and a coating arranged on at least one main surface of the substrate. Along a first direction which is parallel to a normal vector of the main surface, the substrate and all coatings having a total thickness. For a specific light beam having a specific wavelength within a range of 450 nm and 650 nm which is incident on the partial beam splitter along a second direction with an angle of 32° enclosed between a vector pointing in the first direction and a vector pointing in the second direction, the specific light beam after transmitting through the partial beam splitter has a phase having a phase difference of an absolute value of smaller than or equal to 30° compared to the case in which, under otherwise identical conditions, the partial beam splitter is replaced by a similar reference substrate.

Abstract: A motor vehicle body includes, but is not limited to a front hood, a windshield rising from a rear edge of the front hood and a cross member substantially extending over the width of the windshield, of which a front edge supports a front lower edge of the windshield and a rear edge is supported on a structural element of the body. A top side of the cross member faces the passenger cell and a bottom side faces the engine compartment. Between the front edge and the rear edge the cross member comprises at least one first region, in which the top side is concavely curved in a section plane running in vehicle longitudinal direction and which yields to a load by intensifying the curvature along an apex line yielding towards the engine compartment and pivoting of two zones extending on both sides of the apex line towards each other.

Abstract: A motor vehicle body with a front hood, a front window rising from a rear edge of the front hood, and an elongated cross member is provided. The elongated cross member includes a middle region curved channel-like in section in a vehicle longitudinal direction. A contact zone of the elongated cross member supports a lower edge of the front window and a longitudinal end supports the elongated cross member. A transition region is between the longitudinal end and the middle region and, in section in the vehicle longitudinal direction, is less curved than the middle region.
