Abstract:
The present invention provides a horizontal linear vibrator which can reduce the thickness but increase vibration strength while at the same time guaranteeing a sufficiently long lifetime and satisfactory responsivity. The horizontal linear vibrator includes a casing, a bracket, a vibration unit and springs. The casing defines an internal space therein. The bracket is disposed under the casing. A cylindrical coil is provided on the bracket. The vibration unit has a magnet, a yoke and a weight. The yoke contains the magnet therein and is open on the lower end thereof. The weight is coupled to the outer surface of the yoke. The springs are coupled to sidewall plates of the casing or the bracket. The springs elastically support the vibration unit to allow the vibration unit to vibrate in the horizontal direction.

A linear type vibration motor having a magnet casing is disclosed. The linear type vibration motor in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes a magnet assembly having a pair of magnets, in which same magnetic poles thereof face each other, a magnet casing, which has a hollow part formed therein and houses the magnet assembly in the hollow part, a base, which has a bobbin formed thereon and in which the magnet casing is inserted into the bobbin, a coil, which is coupled to the bobbin, a weight, which is coupled to both ends of the magnet casing, and a pair of elastic bodies, which are interposed between either end of the base and either end of the weight, respectively. Thus, the operating lifetime of the linear type vibration motor can be extended, and this arrangement can prevent the linear type vibration motor from being damaged by an external shock.
Abstract:
Provided are image sensors and a methods of manufacturing image sensors. The image sensors may include a substrate, a pixel array region, and a peripheral circuit region. The substrate includes a first region and a second region. The pixel array region may be formed on the first region. The peripheral circuit region may be formed on the second region. The first region may be located higher than the second region. According to the image sensor and the method of manufacturing the same, the vertical height of the pixel array region is decreased as compared to the prior art, and thus the aspect ratio at the pixel array region is minimized. As a result, condensing efficiency the image sensor may be improved.

A method of controlling transmission power in a wireless communication system includes allocating persistent radio resources, and transmitting transmission power control information multiplexed with data via a data channel according to the persistent resources. Transmission power can be simply controlled without reducing the capacity of a control channel according to persistent scheduling.
Abstract:
A method of fabricating a T-gate is provided. The method includes the steps of: forming a photoresist layer on a substrate; patterning the photoresist layer formed on the substrate and forming a first opening; forming a first insulating layer on the photoresist layer and the substrate; removing the first insulating layer and forming a second opening to expose the substrate; forming a second insulating layer on the first insulating layer; removing the second insulating layer and forming a third opening to expose the substrate; forming a metal layer on the second insulating layer on which the photoresist layer and the third opening are formed; and removing the metal layer formed on the photoresist layer. Accordingly, a uniform and elaborate opening defining the length of a gate may be formed by deposition of the insulating layer and a blanket dry etching process, and thus a more elaborate micro T-gate electrode may be fabricated.
