  • Patent number: 7524763
    Abstract: A method of fabricating wafer level chip scale packages may involve forming a hole to penetrate through a chip pad of an IC chip. A base metal layer may be formed on a first face of a wafer to cover inner surfaces of the hole. An electrode metal layer may fill the hole and rise over the chip pad. A second face of the wafer may be grinded such that the electrode metal layer in the hole may be exposed through the second face. By electroplating, a plated bump may be formed on the electrode metal layer exposed through the second face. The base metal layer may be selectively removed to isolate adjacent electrode metal layers. The wafer may be sawed along scribe lanes to separate individual packages from the wafer.

  • Publication number: 20090093380
    Abstract: Provided is a method of manufacturing a polymer array by photolithography in which a molecule containing a photolabile protecting group is reacted with a surface of a substrate, and then a photosensitizer is coated on the surface of the substrate together with a coating material and the resulting substrate is exposed to light to perform a photochemical reaction. Even by using conventional semiconductor equipment and compounds without separately fabricating light exposure equipment or synthesizing a compound, a polymer array may be effectively manufactured by photolithography with lower exposure energy (shorter period of time).

    Abstract: Provided is a polyurethane polishing pad. More specifically, the present invention provides a polyurethane polishing pad having an interpenetrating network structure of a vinyl polymer with a polyurethane matrix via radical polymerization and having no pores and gas bubbles. The polyurethane polishing pad having an interpenetrating network structure of a vinyl polymer exhibits uniform dispersibility and reduced changes in hardness of the urethane pad due to heat and slurry, thereby resulting in no deterioration of polishing efficiency due to abrasion heat and solubility in the slurry upon polishing, and also enables a high-temperature polishing operation. Further, according to the present invention, the interpenetrating network structure leads to an improved polishing rate and abrasion performance, thereby significantly increasing the service life of the polishing pad.

  • Publication number: 20090053246
    Abstract: Disclosed are an Fc fragment modified by a non-peptide polymer, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the Fc fragment modified by the non-peptide polymer as a carrier, a complex of the Fc fragment and a drug via a linker and a pharmaceutical composition comprising such a complex. The Fc fragment modified by a non-peptide peptide according to the present invention lacks immunogenicity and effector functions. Due to these properties, the Fc fragment maintains the in vivo activity of a drug conjugated thereto in high levels, remarkably increases the serum half-life of the drug, and remarkably reduces the risk of inducing immune responses.

  • Patent number: 7488095
    Abstract: Disclosed is a prism sheet structure that can control optical coupling between contact surfaces of two prism sheets in a backlight unit. The prism sheet includes: a structural surface (14) having non-planar peaks (11) with maximum height and minimum height along a length direction thereof; and a curved layer (17) having the same cycle as a cycle of height variation of the peak. The curved layer is formed at a boundary surface (16) between the structural surface 14 and the flat surface to maintain the right-angled isosceles triangular prisms formed due to a difference between the highest point and the lowest point of each of the peaks to have a predetermined size, so that distance between the valleys (12) is uniform along the length direction. Although shapes of prisms are identical, the cycle of the peak height variation allows the moiré´ patterns to be suppressed or removed.
