  • Publication number: 20130078750
    Abstract: A method of fabricating nanostructure for antireflection and a method of fabricating a photo device integrated with the nanostructure for antireflection are provided. The fabrication of the nanostructure for antireflection includes coating a solution containing a combination of metal ions with organic or inorganic ions on a substrate, sintering the coated solution using an annealing process to grow nanoscale metal particles, and chemically etching the substrate using the metal particles as mask or accelerator to form a subwavelength nanostructure on the surface of the substrate, thereby manufacturing the nanostructure for antireflection without an apparatus requiring a vacuum state using a simple method for a short amount of time to minimize reflection of light at an interface between a semiconductor material and the air, and producing a photo device having good luminous efficiency and performance at low cost in large quantities by applying it to the photo device.

  • Publication number: 20110298590
    Abstract: A display driving integrated circuit operates as both a radio-frequency identification (RFID) reader and a display driver. The display driving integrated circuit operates as the RFID reader by supplying power to an RFID tag, verifying the RFID tag according to communication between the RFID tag and the processor to produce verification data, transferring the verification data from the processor to the RFID tag, and transmitting some of the verification data to the display unit. It operates as a display driver by processing data received from the processor and transferring the processed data to the display unit. The display driving integrated circuit implements functions for the RFID reader and the display unit driver using one or more shared elements selected from a timer, a clock signal generator, a cyclic redundancy check calculator, and a data interface.

  • Publication number: 20110092007
    Abstract: A method of fabricating an antireflective grating pattern and a method of fabricating an optical device integrated with an antireflective grating pattern are provided. The method of fabricating the antireflective grating pattern includes forming a photoresist (PR) pattern on a substrate using a hologram lithography process, forming a PR lens pattern having a predetermined radius of curvature by reflowing the PR pattern, and etching the entire surface of the substrate including the PR lens pattern to form a wedge-type or parabola-type antireflective subwavelength grating (SWG) pattern having a pointed tip on a top surface of the substrate. In this method, a fabrication process is simplified, the reflection of light caused by a difference in refractive index between the air and a semiconductor material can be minimized, and the antireflective grating pattern can be easily applied to optical devices.
