  • Publication number: 20140232890
    Abstract: An image sensor includes a pixel array and an analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion unit. The pixel array generates an analog signal by sensing an incident light. The A/D conversion unit generates a digital signal in a first operation mode by performing a sigma-delta A/D conversion and a cyclic A/D conversion with respect to the analog signal and generates the digital signal in a second operation mode by performing a single-slope A/D conversion with respect to the analog signal. The image sensor provides a high-quality image in a still image photography mode and a dynamic image video mode.

  • Publication number: 20140120704
    Abstract: A method for crystallizing a silicon substrate includes manufacturing a crystallized silicon test substrate that is crystallized by scanning excimer laser annealing beams with different energy densities on respective areas of an amorphous silicon test substrate, irradiating a surface of the crystallized silicon test substrate using a light source, and measuring reflectivity corresponding to the respective areas of the crystallized silicon test substrate in a visible light wavelength range, extracting average reflectivities of the respective areas of the crystallized silicon test substrate in wavelength ranges corresponding to respective colors, calculating an optimum energy density (OPED) index per energy density by using a value acquired by subtracting average reflectivity of red-based colors from average reflectivity of blue-based colors, selecting an optimal energy density, and crystallizing an amorphous silicon substrate using the optimal energy density.

  • Patent number: 8669078
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are ammonia-specific 5?-XMP aminase mutants and a method for preparing the same. A mutation is introduced into the active site of glutamine-dependent catalysis in 5?-XMP aminase. The resulting 5?-XMP aminase mutant is devoid of the glutamine-dependent activity and specifically reacts with external ammonia in converting 5?-XMP into 5?-GMP. Thus, the ammonia-specific 5?-XMP aminase mutant is stabler within cells compared to the wild type, and can be useful in the industrial conversion of 5?-XMP into 5?-GMP.
