Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for forming a predetermined pattern on a substrate using a gravure offset printing method. The apparatus for forming a pattern using a gravure offset printing method comprises a gravure on which a pattern to be filled with a color resist is formed; a roller brought into contact with the gravure to transfer the pattern formed on the gravure to the roller and then to print the transferred pattern onto a substrate; a roller driving means for rotating and horizontally driving the roller to transfer the pattern formed on the gravure to the roller and then to print the transferred pattern onto the substrate as it is; and a substrate support on which the substrate is placed.

Abstract: A focus monitoring mask includes a transparent substrate, e.g., a quartz layer. A light blocking film, e.g., a chromium-containing film, is disposed on the transparent substrate and has an opening therein. A transparent unit is disposed in a portion of the substrate exposed by the opening. The transparent unit includes a first phase shifter, a second phase shifter and a third phase shifter arranged adjacently in order of amount of phase shift. The second phase shifter is configured to provide an about 180° phase difference with respect to the first phase shifter. The third phase shifter is configured to provide a phase difference other than about 0° and about 180° with respect to the first phase shifter. The transparent unit may further include a fourth phase shifter having a fourth phase difference with respect to the first phase shifter that differs from about 0°, about 180° and the phase difference provided by the third phase shifter.

Abstract: Disclosed is a biocompatible medical material and porous scaffold for use in tissue engineering, made from a biodegradable glycolide/&egr;-caprolactone copolymer. The medical material and porous scaffold have excellent mechanical properties such as flexibility and elasticity, and appropriate hydrolytic properties. Due to its superior mechanical properties including elasticity, flexibility and appropriate biodegradation time, it can be used effectively as a porous scaffold for tissue cell culture reproduction such as for artificial skin, blood vessels, dental matrix and wound coverings.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing a thin fiber-structured polymer web suitable for a high-speed and large-scale production using electrospinning.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an antimicrobial pigment, its production process, and a cosmetic composition containing the pigment. More particularly, it relates to an antimicrobial cosmetic pigment produced by forming an amorphous glassy inorganic coating layer of metal oxides over the surface of inorganic cosmetic pigment and intercalating antimicrobial metals inside the lattice structure of the coating layer, it's production process, and a cosmetic composition containing it. Silica, either alone or as the principal ingredient in combination with one or more oxides selected from the group consisting of zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, aluminum oxide, lithium oxide, sodium oxide, potassium oxide, and ferric oxide is utilized as the metal oxide and the composition utilizes silver, copper and zinc as the antimicrobial metals.
