  • Patent number: 7612740
    Abstract: A plasma display device includes a plasma display panel having discharge cells formed between a plurality of first electrodes and a plurality of second electrodes and a driving circuit dividing one frame into a plurality of subfields, each subfield including a reset period, an address period, and a sustain period, and applying a driving voltage to the first electrodes and the second electrodes. During a sustain period of each subfield, a sustain discharge pulse is alternately applied to the first and second electrodes for triggering a sustain discharge. A width of a last sustain discharge pulse applied to the second electrode is set to be greater than a width of other sustain discharge pulses for selected subfields. The subfields may be selected based on whether a total number of the sustain discharge pulses during the sustain period is less than a critical number of sustain discharge pulses.

  • Publication number: 20090258303
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a photomask includes includes forming a light blocking layer over a transparent substrate, and forming a hard mask pattern over the light blocking layer. The hard mask pattern exposes a portion of the light blocking layer. The method also includes depositing a self assembly molecule (SAM) layer over the hard mask pattern. The SAM layer covers the hard mask pattern and a portion of the exposed light blocking layer. The method also includes forming a resist layer pattern over an exposed portion of the light blocking layer that is not covered by the deposited SAM layer. The method further includes removing the SAM layer to expose the hard mask pattern and the light blocking layer, and etching the light blocking layer with the hard mask pattern and the resist layer pattern to form the photomask.

  • Publication number: 20090239733
    Abstract: A soda-lime glass substrate formed through a heat-treatment method has an absorption coefficient ranging from about 0.15 ?,W/m·K to about 0.54 ?,W/m·K, and a free path length ranging from about 0.12 cm to about 0.24 cm. The heat-treated soda-lime glass substrate is formed by heating for a selected time at a pre-specified maximum temperature of about 270° C. to about 330° C. so as to remove thermally induced residual deformations from the substrate and then the substrate is slowly cooled so as to substantially avoid reintroducing thermally induced residual deformations into the cooling substrate. Thus, the soda-lime glass substrate is transformed to one at or close to its contraction saturation point. This allows the heat-treated soda-lime glass substrate to serve in a practical way as a substrate of a flat display panel.

  • Publication number: 20090239157
    Abstract: Provided is a method for fabricating a photomask. A light blocking layer is formed on a transparent substrate having a first region and a second region. A hard mask layer is formed on the light blocking layer. A first polymer film is formed on the hard mask layer. Here, the first polymer film is formed of single strand polymers that can form a complementary binding. A portion of the first polymer film corresponding to the first region is changed to comprise polymers having partial complementary binding. A hard mask pattern for exposing a portion of the light blocking layer under the first polymer film is formed by performing an etching process using the changed portion as an etch stop. A light blocking pattern is formed by removing an exposed portion of the light blocking layer by performing an etching process using the hard mask pattern as an etch mask, and then removing the hard mask pattern.

  • Publication number: 20090240148
    Abstract: For noninvasive treatment of tissue using high intensity focused ultrasound, composite imaging and therapy acoustic techniques are described. Embodiments include an integrated multi-functional confocal array and a strategy to perform both imaging and therapy simultaneously with this array by using coded excitation techniques with/without a notch filter. An exemplary array embodiment includes a triple-row phased array with one array in the center row for imaging and two arrays in the outer rows for therapy. Different types of piezoelectric materials and stack configurations may be employed to maximize the respective therapy and imaging functionalities. Reflected therapeutic signals that would otherwise corrupt the quality of imaging signals received by the center-row array can be mitigated or removed by use of the coding and/or a notch filter when B-mode images are formed during therapy.
