A semiconductor 100 has a P⁻ body region and an N⁻ drift region in the order from an upper surface side thereof. A gate trench and a terminal trench passing through the P⁻ body region are formed. The respective trenches are surrounded with P diffusion regions at the bottom thereof. The gate trench builds a gate electrode therein. A P⁻⁻ diffusion region, which is in contact with the end portion in a lengthwise direction of the gate trench and is lower in concentration than the P⁻ body region and the P diffusion region, is formed. The P⁻⁻ diffusion region is depleted prior to the P diffusion region when the gate voltage is off. The P⁻⁻ diffusion region serves as a hole supply path to the P diffusion region when the gate voltage is on.

Disclosed herein is a light guide plate for keypad backlight panels, which is mounted at the rear of a keypad having numerals or characters printed thereon for supplying light emitted from a light source mounted at one side of the keypad to the keypad. The light guide plate is made of polycarbonate and is provided at the rear surface thereof with a concave-convex pattern, the density of which is increased as pattern elements of the pattern become more distant from the light source, such that light emitted from the light source is reflected and is uniformly supplied to the keypad, the pattern being formed on the light guide plate by hot stamping, injection molding, or micro blasting. The density of the pattern is adjusted by adjusting the distance between the pattern elements of the pattern or by adjusting the size of the pattern elements of the pattern. Consequently, it is possible to manufacture a keypad module in a slim structure or a curved structure. It is also possible to manufacture a keypad module that is capable of uniformly supplying light.

An arrangement for supplying a medium to an exhaust line of a combustion engine. The arrangement comprises a first exhaust passage defined by at least a first wall surface of an element, and a dosing device supplying the medium to the first exhaust passage. The arrangement is adapted to maintaining a degree of heating of the first wall surface so that the latter will be at a higher temperature than the medium's vaporization point when the liquid medium is supplied in the first exhaust passage. Therefore, even the medium which reaches the first wall surface will vaporize in the first exhaust passage.
