    Abstract: A method of crystallizing amorphous silicon comprises forming an amorphous silicon layer on a substrate; forming an insulating layer on the amorphous silicon layer; forming a heat distributing metal layer on the insulating layer; and forming a thermite layer on the heat distributing metal layer. Ignition heat is then applied to ignite the thermite layer and generate sufficient localized exothermic heat from the ignited thermite layer so as to crystallize the amorphous silicon layer. The substrate beneath the amorphous silicon layer can be a heat sensitive substrate which is not substantially deformed by the localized crystallizing heat applied to the top portion of the amorphous silicon layer by way of the heat distributing metal layer and the insulating layer.

  • Publication number: 20100053447
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for compensating for the picture quality of a stored broadcast signal are disclosed. For reproduction of a broadcast signal stored in a television, the picture quality of the stored broadcast signal is compensated for, based on a predetermined. MPEG noise reduction value corresponding to the electric field strength of the stored broadcast signal. Therefore, it is possible to provide the optimum picture quality. When a broadcast signal is stored, it is stored together with the electric field strength, thereof. When the stored broadcast signal is reproduced, block noise, of a screen is efficiently removed by applying an MPEG, noise reduction value corresponding to the electric field strength of the stored broadcast signal to the stored broadcast signal. Therefore it is possible to improve the definition of the screen.

  • Patent number: 7671651
    Abstract: A duty cycle correction circuit and a delay locked loop (DLL) including the duty cycle correction circuit, are capable of controlling their operation in order to correctly analyze the cause of generation of a duty cycle error when the duty cycle error is generated in the DLL. The duty cycle correction circuit selectively outputs to a DLL core duty cycle offset information for controlling a duty cycle of an internal clock signal synchronized to an external clock signal under the control of a switching control signal. The DLL corrects the duty cycle of a reference clock signal according to the duty cycle offset information, thereby outputting a reference clock signal having a 50% duty cycle.
