Abstract:
A refrigerator and a control method of the refrigerator are discussed. According to an embodiment, a control method of a refrigerator connected to an electric power management network comprises steps of receiving power-rate information via the electric power management network; setting an over-cooling period and a power-saving period based on the received power-rate information; controlling at east one storage chamber to be over-cooled by over-cooling cold air during the over-cooling period; and controlling the other storage chamber to be over-cooled by the over-cooled cold air during the power-saving period. According to the present invention, the functions of the refrigerator are provided with minimal use of electricity and/or with reduced electricity charges.
Abstract:
Provided are a field effect transistor, a method of manufacturing the same, and an electronic device including the field effect transistor. The field effect transistor may have a structure in which a double gate field effect transistor and a recess channel array transistor are formed in a single transistor in order to improve a short channel effect which occurs as field effect transistors become more highly integrated, a method of manufacturing the same, and an electronic device including the field effect transistor. The field effect transistor can exhibit stable device characteristics even when more highly integrated in such a manner that both the length and width of a channel increase and particularly the channel can be significantly long, and can be manufactured simply.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for forming patterns of a semiconductor device. According to the method, first mask patterns may be formed on a substrate, and second mask patterns may be formed on sidewalls of each first mask pattern. Third mask patterns may fill spaces formed between adjacent second mask patterns, and the second mask patterns may be removed. A portion of the substrate may then be removed using the first and third mask patterns as etch masks.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device having a fin type active area includes a plurality of active regions, a first device isolation layer and a recessed second device isolation layer disposed in a direction of gate electrodes of the semiconductor device. A recessed second device isolation layer and a first device isolation layer are disposed in a vertical direction of the gate electrodes. The first device isolation layer and the plurality of active regions are alternately disposed in a first direction of the plurality of active regions.
Abstract:
An organic photoreceptor and an electrophotographic image forming apparatus including the organic photoreceptor are provided. The organic photoreceptor has the same advantage as a conventional laminated photoreceptor but improved electric properties such as higher photosensitivity and lower exposure potential.
Abstract:
An electrophotographic photoreceptor and an electrophotographic imaging apparatus include an asymmetric naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid diimide derivative. The asymmetric naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid diimide derivative has increased solubility in organic solvents and improved compatibility with binder resins, thus providing excellent electron transporting ability. The electrophotographic photoreceptor containing the asymmetric naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid diimide compound according to the present invention can maintain a constant surface potential after being repeatedly used for an extended time. The electrophotographic photoreceptor according to the present invention can provide a high image quality for an extended time.
