Abstract: Disclosed is an LPC residual signal encoding/decoding apparatus of an MDCT based unified voice and audio encoding device. The LPC residual signal encoding apparatus analyzes a property of an input signal, selects an encoding method of an LPC filtered signal, and encode the LPC residual signal based on one of a real filterbank, a complex filterbank, and an algebraic code excited linear prediction (ACELP).

Abstract: A quantum dot including a core and a shell disposed on the core wherein one of the core and the shell includes a first semiconductor nanocrystal including zinc and sulfur and the other of the core and the shell includes a second semiconductor nanocrystal having a different composition from the first semiconductor nanocrystal, the first semiconductor nanocrystal further includes a metal and a halogen configured to act as a Lewis acid in a halide form, an amount of the metal is greater than or equal to about 10 mole percent (mol %) based on a total number of moles of sulfur, and an amount of the halogen is greater than or equal to about 10 mol % based on a total number of moles of sulfur, a method of producing the same, and a composite and an electronic device including the same.

Abstract: A Unified Speech and Audio Codec (USAC) that may process a window sequence based on mode switching is provided. The USAC may perform encoding or decoding by overlapping between frames based on a folding point when mode switching occurs. The USAC may process different window sequences for each situation to perform encoding or decoding, and thereby may improve a coding efficiency.

Abstract: A rechargeable lithium battery includes a positive electrode including a positive active material, a negative electrode and an electrolyte including a lithium salt, an organic solvent and an additive. The positive active material includes a compound represented by Chemical Formula 1, and the additive includes about 0.5 to about 2 parts by weight of lithium difluorophosphate (LiPO2F2) and about 0.5 to about 3 parts by weight of vinylene carbonate, based on 100 parts by weight of the organic solvent.
