  • Patent number: 9406838
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a light-emitting element comprises: a first electrically-conductive semiconductor layer, a second electrically-conductive semiconductor layer; and an active layer which is disposed between the first electrically-conductive layer and the second electrically-conductive layer, and in which a well layer and a barrier layer are alternately laminated at least once. The active layer comprises: a first region which is disposed between a neighboring barrier layer and well layer, and linearly reduces the energy band gap; and a second region which is disposed between a neighboring well layer and barrier layer, and linearly increases the energy band gap. In the well layer, at least one first region and second region neighboring the same well layer have mutually different thicknesses.

  • Patent number: 9322472
    Abstract: A method of controlling a parking control device of a transmission may include a) inputting data about a state of a vehicle, b) determining, based on the data input at the step a), whether a current situation is a first situation in which an actuator of the parking control device of the transmission is to be promptly controlled, a second situation in which noise is controlled to be minimized, or a third situation which is a situation other than the first and second situations, and c) controlling a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) duty cycle required to control the actuator to different values depending on the first, second, and third situations determined at the step b), thus driving the actuator.

  • Publication number: 20150362068
    Abstract: Disclosed are device and method for driving a shift lever. The device may include a control unit that sets a travel distance of the shift lever when the shift lever is manipulated to a predetermined shift stage to be different than a reference travel distance of the shift lever, which is a travel distance of the shift lever when the shift lever is manipulated to shift stages other than the predetermined shift stage. The device may further include a driving unit which restricts a travel of the shift lever or moves the shift lever depending on a setting of the control unit.
