Abstract:
A potty training device includes: a support member providing a support surface for supporting a pet, wherein at least a portion of the support surface is capable of receiving defecation inducers; and an interfering member disposed on the support member to hinder the pet from defecating in the defecation inducers. The support member includes: a support plate providing the support surface; and a discharge hole formed through the support plate so that the pet's excrement is discharged through the discharge hole. The interfering member is provided in a cover, wall, or grate shape and positioned above the defecation inducer, such that the pet is able to access the defecation inducer by smell, touch, or sight, but unable to defecate into the defecation inducer, and the interfering member.
Abstract:
The present invention generally relates to methods and apparatuses for amplifying nucleic acid sequences using immobilized DNA polymerase. More particularly, it relates to methods and apparatuses useful for amplifying target nucleic acid sequences by forming a plurality of reaction regions in which polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can occur, positioning immobilized DNA polymerase in a specific reaction region, and circulating DNA through the reaction regions. The present invention provides those methods and apparatuses that allow simple separation and recovery of the DNA polymerase after the amplification, that can be operated not only with thermostable DNA polymerases but also with non-thermostable DNA polymerases, and that are simpler in their designs and processes so that they can be readily integrated into complex devices such as Lab-on-a-chip.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to an exclusive alloy substrate material for CIGS solar cells. Particularly, the present invention provides a substrate material having a thermal expansion coefficient similar to that of a CIGS layer. The substrate material according to the present invention may prevent damage such as interlayer separation due to differing thermal expansion coefficients from occurring because the substrate material has a thermal expansion coefficient similar to that of the CIGS layer.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an AC light emitting device having photonic crystal structures and a method of fabricating the same. The light emitting device includes a plurality of light emitting cells and metallic wirings electrically connecting the light emitting cells with one another. Further, each of the light emitting cells includes a first conductive type semiconductor layer, a second conductive type semiconductor layer disposed on one region of the first conductive type semiconductor layer, and an active layer interposed between the first and second conductive type semiconductor layers. In addition, a photonic crystal structure is formed in the second conductive type semiconductor layer. The photonic crystal structure prevents light emitted from the active layer from laterally propagating by means of a periodic array, such that light extraction efficiency of the light emitting device can be improved. Furthermore, the metallic wirings electrically connect a plurality of light emitting cells with one another such that an AC light emitting device can be provided.
