Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of forming an ohmic electrode in a semiconductor light emitting element, comprising: forming a semiconductor layer having a light emitting structure on a substrate, sequentially laminating a bonding layer, a reflective layer and a protective layer on the semiconductor layer, and forming an ohmic electrode by performing a heat treatment process to form ohmic bonding between the semiconductor layer and the bonding layer and to form an oxide film on at least a portion of the protective layer; and a semiconductor light emitting element using the ohmic electrode. According to the present invention, since a reflective layer is formed of Ag, Al and an alloy thereof with excellent light reflectivity, the light availability is enhanced. Further, since contact resistance between a semiconductor layer and a bonding layer is small, it is easy to apply large current for high power.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a use of AtBG1 {Arabidopsis thaliana ?-glucosidase 1) gene and a transgenic plan with the AtBG1 gene insertion, more precisely, a use of AtBG1 gene for the generation of a transgenic plant having resistance to various environmental stresses by increasing the level of abscisic acid (ABA), a kind of plant hormone, and a transgenic plant having stress-resistance with the AtBG1 gene insertion. Plants have enhanced resistance against various environmental stresses including low temperature, salt damage and dehydration owing to the increased level of ABA. Thus, the method to increase the level of ABA can greatly contribute to the enhancement of agricultural production.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electrical light-emitting device including a transparent conductive nanorod type electrode, in which transparent conductive nanorods grown perpendicular to a light-emitting layer are used as the electrode. Hence, light is not absorbed by the electrode, and tunneling easily occurs due to nanocontact of the nanorods, thus increasing current injection efficiency, and also, total internal reflections decrease. Thereby, the light-emitting device according to this invention has light-emitting properties and luminous efficiency superior to conventional light-emitting devices, including metal electrodes or thin film type transparent electrodes.
