Abstract: La présente invention concerne un réacteur (900) de dépôt chimique en phase vapeur (chemical vapor deposition : CVD) comprenant une enceinte de réaction (950), un support de substrat (46,48) situé à l'intérieur de l'enceinte de réaction, un système d'admission de gaz (922) conçu pour fournir un flux de gaz en rotation au-dessus du support de substrat, ainsi qu'un port d'évacuation de gaz (930). Les caractéristiques d'écoulement du gaz précurseur sont contrôlées de façon à égaliser l'épaisseur de film mince sur la surface du substrat, par passage forcé du gaz dans un plus petit volume lorsqu'il circule sur le substrat. A cette fin et lorsque l'orifice d'évacuation se trouve au centre, la hauteur (1506, 1524) de l'enceinte de réaction est réduite à l'approche du centre (1508) de l'enceinte de réaction, de façon à réduire le volume du réacteur par distance unitaire lorsque le gaz circule de l'orifice d'admission à l'orifice d'évacuation.

Abstract: An extensible absorbent article or garment has an extensible top sheet layer for facing the body of the wearer; an extensible back sheet layer for an exterior layer facing away from the body of the wearer; and an absorbent core layer located between the top sheet and the back sheet. The absorbent core has a tissue layer acting as a boundary layer or web between the top sheet and the fluff pad of the absorbent core. The tissue web of the absorbent core has an adhesive discontinuously applied thereto for attachment to the top sheet or other extensible layers to avoid tearing the tissue when the extensible layers expand. The tissue web may further be pleated to allow for its extensibility. The discontinuity of the adhesive then allows the pleats to perform their expansion function unbound and thus the tissue can extend without tearing, thereby maintaining the integrity of the tissue barrier.
