Abstract: A method for interacting with a graphical user interface (GUI) of a television operating in a step mode in which movement of a cursor among menu items displayed on the GUI is performed stepwise in accordance with a manipulation of a direction key of the remote controller, the method including receiving, by the television, from a remote controller a signal corresponding to spatial movement of the remote controller detected by the remote controller that instructs the television to switch from (i) the step mode to (ii) a position mode of the GUI in which the movement of the cursor among the menu items is performed in accordance with the spatial movement of the remote controller and switching from the step mode of the GUI to the position mode of the GUI based on the signal.

A second gate lower electrode overlaps a channel region of the second semiconductor layer. A second gate insulating layer is disposed on the second gate lower electrode. A second gate upper electrode and a light blocking layer are disposed on the second gate insulating layer. A first auxiliary layer is disposed on the second gate upper electrode and the light blocking layer. A first semiconductor layer overlaps the light blocking layer. The first semiconductor layer includes an oxide semiconductor. A first gate electrode overlaps a channel region of the first semiconductor layer. The first auxiliary layer includes an insulating layer including at least one compound selected from SiNx, SiOx, and SiON, and at least one material selected from F, Cl, and C.

Abstract: A polarizing plate and a display device including the same are provided. A polarizing plate includes a polarizer comprising an absorption axis and a transmission axis that intersect each other, a first retardation layer disposed on a surface of the polarizer, and a second retardation layer disposed on another surface opposite to the surface of the polarizer. An in-plane retardation value of the second retardation layer is greater than about 20 nm and less than about 100 nm. An angle between the absorption axis of the polarizer and a retardation axis of the second retardation layer is in a range of about 10° to about 45°.

Abstract: Provided are an apparatus for producing inorganic powder, and a method of producing inorganic powder by using such. The apparatus includes a vaporization part where a condensed-phase precursor is vaporized to obtain a gas-phase precursor, a partial precipitation part where the gas-phase precursor obtained in the vaporization part is partially precipitated to a condensed phase, and a reaction part where the gas-phase precursor remaining after being partially precipitated to a condensed phase in the partial precipitation part reacts with a reaction gas to obtain inorganic powder. An equilibrium vapor pressure of the gas-phase precursor in the partial precipitation part is lower than a vapor pressure of the gas-phase precursor obtained in the vaporization part, and an equilibrium vapor pressure of the precursor in the reaction part is equal to or higher than a vapor pressure of the gas-phase precursor partially precipitated to a condensed phase in the partial precipitation part.

Abstract: Provided is a functional shoe that automatically prevents a slip, the function shoe including a rotation body part fixed to an outsole of the functional shoe to rotate to a front or rear side of the functional shoe, and an anti-slip part connected to the rotation body part to contact a ground and rotating integrally with the rotation body part according to a sliding direction of the functional shoe. The anti-slip part includes a first distal end, which is sharp and is oriented to the front side of the functional shoe, and a second distal end which is sharp and is oriented to the rear side of the functional shoe.

Abstract: Disclosed is a coupler for auxiliary lenses for coupling auxiliary lenses to spectacles and allowing the auxiliary glassed to be out of user's sight when they are not needed. The coupler for auxiliary lenses comprises a coupling unit, an operation unit which is extended and retracted to be near and far from the coupling unit and is arranged to be pivoted upward on a pin when it is extended, and a sliding panel which is extended and retracted in the operation unit and has an end combined with and fixed to a bridge of the auxiliary lenses.
