Abstract:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming an active pattern protruding from a substrate, forming a liner layer on the active pattern, forming a sacrificial gate pattern on the liner layer and crossing the active pattern, forming source/drain regions on the active pattern and at both sides of the sacrificial gate pattern, forming an interlayer insulating layer to cover the source/drain regions, forming capping insulating patterns on the interlayer insulating layer to expose the sacrificial gate pattern, and removing the sacrificial gate pattern and the liner layer by an etching process using the capping insulating patterns as an etch mask to form a gap region exposing the active pattern. The active pattern includes a material having a lattice constant greater than a lattice constant of the substrate, and the capping insulating patterns include a material having an etch selectivity with respect to the liner layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, an insulating layer disposed on the substrate and having a trench exposing a surface portion of the substrate, and a channel-forming structure comprising crystalline semiconductor material. The channel-forming structure has a lower portion located in the trench and fins extending upright on the lower portion, where the fins are spaced from each other and are each narrower than an opening of the trench, and the lower portion of the channel forming structure has a higher crystal defect density than the fins of the channel forming structure.
Abstract:
Provided is a nano-fiber manufacturing apparatus capable of mass-producing nano-fibers having uniform quality at a low manufacturing cost. The nano-fiber manufacturing apparatus is equipped with a nozzle block having a plurality of upward nozzles and a polymer solution supply channel. The nano-fiber manufacturing apparatus field-emits the nano-fibers while overflowing the polymer solution from the upward nozzles, and at the same time, collects the overflowed polymer solution so as to reuse it. The nano-fiber manufacturing apparatus is additionally equipped with a raw material tank, regeneration tanks, a middle tank, a first transfer device for transferring the polymer solution to the regeneration tanks, a second transfer device for transferring the polymer solution to the middle tank, and first and second transfer control devices for controlling the transfer operations of the first and second transfer devices.

Disclosed herein is a field emission device which makes mass-production of nanofibers having satisfactory performance possible. The field emission device (20) includes a casing (100), a collector (150), a nozzle block (110) and a power supply (160). A positive electrode of the power supply (160) is connected to the collector (150), and a negative electrode of the power supply (160) is connected to the nozzle block (110) and the casing (100). When the collector (150) is viewed from the nozzle block (110), a periphery of an insulator (152) is closer to the outside of the device than a periphery of the collector (150). When the thickness of the insulator is ┌a┘ and the distance between the periphery of the insulator and the periphery of the collector is ┌b┘, both ┌a≧6 mm┘ and ┌a+b≧50 mm┘ are satisfied.

The IP information transmission apparatus includes a memory that stores IP information of at least one mobile terminal included in a group of mobile terminals for short-range wireless communication, and a controller that receives an IP information request message requesting the IP information of the at least one mobile terminal included in the group, generates the IP information of the at least one mobile terminal included in the group based on the stored IP information, and transmits the generated IP information.
Abstract:
The head assembly of a golf club includes a sound generator or a vibration generator. The sound generator includes a sound hole formed in a head of a driver, a sound pipe attached to the head, and a sound generator attached to an iron. Using the head assembly, since the golfer slowly swings the golf club, improper rapid swing is prevented and head-up is also minimized.
Abstract:
A continuous process for the preparation of copolycarbonate resins has great advantages in preparing molding materials of intricate structure or of thin-wall: the molding process may be conducted easily at a relatively low temperature; the copolycarbonate has excellent impact strength especially at a low temperature; and they have excellent melt flow, i.e. 2 to 3 times of the conventional polycarbonates. The present invention is a new polycondensation process which is carried out sequentially by using serially connected tube-type reactors to simplify the process; and enhancing the rate of reaction for an incorporation of comonomer into the polymer backbone resulting from varying Reynols Number, Linear Viscosity and Weber Number.
