Abstract:
Disclosed are water soluble azo dyes, represented by Formula I or II, and their synthesis and use. The water soluble azo dyes are synthesized by diazotizing 4-aminopyridine and coupling the resulting diazo intermediate with alkylated metanilic or orthanilic acid. To be suitable for measuring blood glucose levels, the dyes are combined with m-nitrophenyl boronic acid in an aqueous solvent. A combined ao form of the dyes with glucose shows a peak at 540 nm. At this wavelength, the absorptivity has a tendency to increase with the increasing of glucose level, which allows the measurement of blood glucose levels. ##STR1## wherein R has a 1-4 carbon atom length and is an alkyl, a hydroxy alkyl, a carboxyl-containing alkyl, or a sulfonyl-containing alkyl.
Abstract:
A method of forming patterns includes forming a layer composed of a ketene based random copolymer on a substrate, forming a block copolymer on the ketene based random copolymer layer and patterning the ketene based random copolymer layer by removing a part of the block copolymer and a portion of the ketene based random copolymer layer.
Abstract:
A touch panel includes first and second normally spaced apart substrates. The first substrate includes first spaced apart touch electrodes extended in a first direction and each having a first width (W1). The second substrate includes second spaced apart touch electrodes extended in a different second direction and each having a second width (W2) which is substantially narrower than the first width. One of the substrates can be flexed so that momentary shorting contact is established between corresponding first and second touch electrodes at positions where pressing touch is provided. A combination of interconnect wirings and interrogation circuits are provided for automatically determining where and when the temporary shorting contacts were made, even if plural ones are simultaneously made. The disclosed embodiments include ones where the number of interconnect wirings are reduced.

Abstract:
Provided is a method of nano-patterning block copolymers and a method of manufacturing a polarizer using the same. The method of nano-patterning block copolymers includes coating block copolymers on a lower substrate to a predetermined thickness, forming a thickness gradient by patterning the block copolymers to have a predetermined aspect ratio, and aligning self-assembled block copolymers in a direction of the thickness gradient by heat-treating the block copolymers having the thickness gradient.
Abstract:
According to an example embodiment of the present invention, a photoresist pattern is formed on a base substrate including a neutral layer. A sacrifice structure including a first sacrifice block and a second sacrifice block is formed on the base substrate having the photoresist pattern, and the sacrifice structure is formed from a first thin film including a first block copolymer. Thus, a chemical pattern is formed to form a nano-structure. Therefore, the nano-structure may be easily formed on a substrate having a large size by using a block copolymer, and productivity and manufacturing reliability may be improved.
Abstract:
A light guide plate having a multi-periodic micro pattern, which can minimize chromatic dispersion, and an illumination apparatus for a display device employing the light guide plate are provided. The light guide plate includes a top surface and a micro pattern formed on the top surface and allowing light, which is incident from a first side surface of the light guide plate, to be emitted from the top surface. The micro pattern is a combination of at least two periodic patterns having different periods to reduce chromatic dispersion of light emitted from the top surface.
