Abstract: A transistor device is disclosed. The transistor device includes a semiconductor body and plurality of transistor cells. Each transistor cell includes: a drift region and a source region of a first doping type; a body region of a second doping type complementary to the first doping type; a field shaping region of the second doping type connected to a source node; and a gate electrode connected to a gate node. The gate electrode is arranged in a trench extending from a first surface into the semiconductor body. The gate electrode is dielectrically insulated from the body region by a gate dielectric. At least portions of the gate electrode are dielectrically insulated from the drift region by a field dielectric. The field shaping region adjoins the trench. The field dielectric comprises a high-k dielectric.

Abstract: A method is provided for processing images comprising retrieving measured data for a first image. The method then generates partially filtered data by applying a first filter to the measured data. The first filter is a generic filter. The method then reconstructs the partially filtered data to generate a partially filtered image. The method then generates a partially processed image by applying a first processing routine to the partially filtered image. The method then generates a filtered image by applying a second filter to the partially processed image, where the second filter is a filter selected from a plurality of potential secondary filters. The method then outputs the filtered image. Systems are provided for implementing the claimed method and training methods for neural networks used in the method are provided as well.

Abstract: A touchscreen cover assembly embodiment is configured to create a sterile interface between a touchscreen and a user and includes a sterile frame and a sterile cover member. The sterile frame includes a forward frame surface and a rearward frame surface opposite the forward frame surface. The sterile frame defines an interior opening, and the sterile frame is configured to be secured to the touchscreen such that the rearward frame surface faces the touchscreen and the interior opening is aligned with a user interface of the touchscreen. The sterile cover member includes a forward cover portion and a rearward cover portion. The sterile cover member is configured to be secured to the touchscreen by the sterile frame such that the forward cover portion is positioned between the interior opening and the user interface of the touchscreen and the rearward cover portion is positioned over a housing of the touchscreen.
