Abstract: An embodiment all-solid-state battery includes an anode current collector, a buffer layer disposed on the anode current collector, a solid electrolyte layer disposed on the buffer layer and including a solid electrolyte, a cathode active material layer disposed on the solid electrolyte layer, and a cathode current collector disposed on the cathode active material layer. The buffer layer includes a first layer disposed on the anode current collector and including an electrically conductive material, and a second layer disposed on the first layer and including a metal capable of alloying with lithium.

Abstract: A host device, a storage device, and a method employ a vendor unique command (VUC) authentication system. The storage device includes a memory and a memory controller which includes a VUC authentication module and controls the memory. The VUC authentication module transmits first memory information about the memory to the host device, receives from the host device a one-time password generated by the first memory information, verifies the one-time password, and receives a vendor unique command from the host device when the one-time password is correct.

Abstract: An apparatus to manipulate a broadcast receiving device using a portable terminal obtains location information of a portable device and determines if any broadcast receiving devices and broadcast providing services are available at the location. The apparatus displays a user interface that allows a user to manipulate the broadcast receiving devices and broadcast providing services. Further, the apparatus detects a change in location of the portable terminal and may update the list of broadcast receiving devices and broadcast providing services that may be manipulated. A method for manipulating the broadcast receiving device includes obtaining the location of a portable terminal, collecting broadcast program information for broadcast receiving devices in the location, generating a user interface based on the broadcast program information and generating a signal to manipulate the device based on a user input into the user interface.

Abstract: A method for sharing an application between a first portable terminal and a second portable terminal includes the first portable terminal collecting application information if an application sharing event occurs, generating a marker including the application information, and displaying the marker; and the second portable terminal capturing an image of the marker including application information, recognizing the marker, extracting the application information from the marker, and installing an application corresponding to the application information from the marker. The first portable terminal includes a marker generating unit to generate the marker including the application information, and a display unit to display the marker. The second portable terminal includes a camera unit to capture an image of the marker, a marker recognizing unit to recognize the marker, a marker analyzing unit to extract the application information from the marker, and an application installing unit to install the application.

Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a display unit to display information processed by the mobile terminal, the display unit comprising a touch panel; and a control unit to control the display to display first information in a first direction if a first drag is detected and to display second information in a second direction different from the first direction while the first information is displayed if a second drag is detected. An information display method for a mobile terminal includes displaying first information in a first direction in response to a first drag; and displaying second information in a second direction different from the first direction in response to a second drag while the first information is displayed.

Abstract: A mobile terminal that displays menu information along a trace may include a memory unit to store menu information; a touch screen including a touch panel, the touch screen to display the menu information; and a controller to control the touch screen to display at least a portion of the menu information on a trace according to a dragged input signal corresponding to the trace. A method for displaying menu information on a display includes storing menu information including a menu item and sub-menu items corresponding to the menu item, receiving a dragged input signal on the display, the dragged input signal beginning at a start point, and displaying the sub-menu items on a trace corresponding to the dragged input signal, the menu item arranged at the start point.
