LCD-BLU (Back Light Unit) is one of kernel parts of LCD unit. The fabrication method of a 3-D micro mold patterned with micro-lenses for the LGP (Light Guiding Plate), one of the most important parts of LCD-BLU, was presented. Instead of dot pattern made by etching, 3-D optical pattern design with $50{\mu}m$ micro-lens was applied in the present study. The micro-lens pattern fabricated by modified LiGA with thermal reflow process was applied to the optical design of LGP. The positive micro-lens patterned injection mold with different aspect ratios (i.e. 0.3 and 0.4) was fabricated with modified LiGA with thermal reflow process. The brightness of LCD-BLU increased as aspect ratio of micro-lens increased.

In this study, it was investigated about optical simulation in high brightness and high uniformity general lighting using glass light guide plate. And we adopt edge-light emission type light plate. Edge-light type lighting has been used LCD application, especially note PC or smart phone backlight unit. Because it had the good properties such as slim shape and light weight. We thought this type was suitable for general lighting application such as wall attached type or ceiling mount type. But many of edge-light type lighting had problems. It called slanted output light rays. That was main key parameter how could control the direction of output light rays. We investigated the solution of this problems, using ray tracing method, we recognized the major fact of the solution relied on the geometric structure of diffusing dot shape. We set the conditions of aspect ratio in diffusing dot shape such as 0.5 to 1. And, at first, we designed diffusing dots shape based on the results of optical simulation and made specimen. as above condition, and acquired good result in confirming dots shape such as the value of the output rays's peak angle was around 75 degrees. And good light distribution characteristics were measured by slated spectro-radiometer. It was shown that the effective ways of designing light distribution characteristics using optical simulation such as ray tracing linear method for making general lighting using glass light guide plate.

This paper describes the method for the fabrication of micro dot array on a plastic mold steel using DPSS (diode pumped solid-states) UV laser and wet etching process. We suggest the process of the ablation of a photoresist (PR) coated on plastic mold steel and wet etching process using solutions of various concentrations of $FeCl_3$, $HNO_3$ in water as etchant. This method makes it possible to fabricate metallic roller mold because the microstructures are directly fabricated on the metal surface. In the range of operating conditions studied, $17\;{\mu}J$ laser pulse energy and 50 ms laser exposure time, an etchant containing 40wt% $FeCl_3$, 5wt% $HNO_3$ and etch time for 45 s gave the $10\;{\mu}m$ of micro dot pattern on plastic mold steel.

The Escherichia coli mixed-function serC-aroA operon encodes biosynthethic enzymes for unrelated pathways leading to the syntheses of serine and aromatic amino acids. It has been proposed that the operon is expressed in a cAMP-dependent manner. In this work experiments were performed to investigate the cAMP-dependent expression of the operon. Exogenous cAMP increased ${\beta}$-galactosidase synthesis in the $cya^+$ and cya strains harboring the serC-aroA-lac fusion plasmid. This enhancement was more dramatic in the $cya^-$ strain grown in a minimal medium. In a dot blot assay the serC-aroA mRNA content increased in a concentration-dependent pattern after the addition of exogenous cAMP. The activity of phosphoserine aminotransferase, encoded by the serC gene, apparently increased in E. coli cells after the addition of cAMP. All results obtained confirmed that the expression of the E. coli serC-aroA operon is positively regulated by cAMP at the level of transcription.

We have designed a high transmission C-shaped aperture using finite differential time domain (FDTD) technique. The C-shaped aperture was fabricated in the aluminum thin film on a glass substrate using a focused ion beam (FIB) milling. Nano-size patterning was demonstrated with a vacuum contact device to keep tight contact between the Al mask and the photoresist. Using 405 nm laser, we recorded a 50 nm-size dot pattern on the photoresist with the aperture and analyzed the spot size dependent on the dose illuminated on the aperture.

Injection molding using plastic materials was expected to mass production of structure with nano pattern for low cost phase. The PDMS mold was produced easily and uniformly by using thermal embossing. Quartz master for embossing method was made using electron beam lithography it had 100-500 nm size of line and dot type. The PDMS mold was produced after a brief hardening process and the master removal. The results show that various patterns are successfully fabricated the nano scale.. The replicated mold would be useful a stamper fabrication for injection molding.

Current thin film process using memory device fabrication process use expensive processes such as manufacturing of photo mask, coating of photo resist, exposure, development, and etching. However, direct printing technology has the merits about simple and cost effective processes because inks are directly injective without mask. And also, this technology has the advantage about fabrication of fine pattern line on various substrates such as PCB, FCPB, glass, polymer and so on. In this work, we have fabricated the fine and thick metal pattern line for the electronic circuit board using metal ink contains Ag nano-particles. Metal lines are fabricated by two types of printing methods. One is a conventional printing method which is able to quick fabrication of fine pattern line, but has various difficulties about thick and high resolution DPI(Dot per Inch) pattern lines because of bulge and piling up phenomenon. Another(Second) methods is sequential printing method which has a various merits of fabrication for fine, thick and high resolution pattern lines without bulge. In this work, conductivities of metal pattern line are investigated with respect to printing methods and pattern thickness. As a result, conductivity of thick pattern is about several un.

Patterns are something that comes out of necessity in human life, which is closely associated with it. Thus come the SFAA (Seoul Fashion Artists Association) collection which uses patterns varying in form, color, way of expression and material. For this research, I first categorized the patterns the SFAA designers used into: natural patterns, symmetric patterns, traditional patterns, stripe, plaid, dot and abstract patterns. As a result of the process. the designers most favored the natural patterns and symmetric patterns, and dot patterns were rarely used. The designer who most favored patterns in general was Sul Yun-hyoung, and the designer Kim Chul-ung rarely favored the surface effect. The seven kinds of patterns naturally differ according to the designer. as Park Hang-chi liked to use the plaid patterns along with yam dyeing material, whereas Jin Teok expressed stripe patterns using the yarn dyeing fabric. Natural patters were presented in a bizarre way with Lie Sang-bong. who took the motives appearing in Eastern ceramic and paintings into the clothes, using the print method. The symmetric patterns, which the SFAA designers most preferred. was used evenly among designers like Chang Kwang-hyo, Gee Choon-hee. Rubina, and Haneza. In contrast. Lie Sang-bong. who used abstract patterns that do not give out meaning of the actual form of the pattern. rarely used symmetric patterns. The dot patterns were most often used by Park Youn-soo. and traditional patterns were overwhelmingly chosen by Sul Yun-hyoung. Secondly. in expressing the colors, SFAA designers were much more likely to choose achromatic colors. not choosing to show off colors. This is especially apparent in works by Haneza and Lie Sang-bong. In the SFAA collections, numerous methods were used to create. For instance, Sul Yun-hyoung used the oriental embroidery method. and Rubina and Lie Sang-bong used many unique dying methods. In terms of materials, Sul Yun-hyoung preferred silk. due to her methods, and Lie Sang-bong was one of the designers that used a number of different materials such as vinyl. Jacques Mueclier of the Paris Clothes Association in France, who was invited to SFAA collection once, remarked. "While the choice of material and the actual sewing done were excellent, there lacked much difference among the designers, as most of them choose flowing silhouette In terms of composition," which is all too correct. In addition, there were cases in the collection where the inherent feelings of cultural artifacts was expressed without alteration. Summing up, the research aimed to analyze the surface expression methods, forms and color of SFAA designs. and I hope that it can open up ways for new projects in the future.he future.

Legionella spp. is the causative agent of Legionellosis, which induces a potentially fatal form of pneumonia. With a concentrated performance during the summer of 2008, we secured 73 isolates from the water systems of 25 wards in Seoul. We analysed serotypes, pathogenic genes (Dot/Icm), and patterns of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) in an attempt to confirm relationships among them. Different from the previous year's pattern (2007), among the isolates, 69 were Legionella pneumophila and 4 were Legionella spp. The serotype distribution of Legionella pneumophila was sg1 43, sg6 9, sg5 8, sg3 8, and sg2 1. The serotype for the 4 Legionella spp. was Legionella nautarum. Most of the Legionella pneumophila had several pathogenic genes. On the other hand, the 4 Legionella spp. were defective in pathogenicity in genomic terms. The PFGE patterns of the serotypes showed a tendency for diversity of Legionella pneumophila and a close correlation with genetic pathogenicity.

LCD-BLU(Liquid Crystal Display - Back Light Unit) consists of several optical sheets: LGP(Light Guiding Plate), light source and mold frame. The LGP of LCD-BLU is usually manufactured by etching process and forming numerous dots with $50{\mu}m$ in diameter on the surface. But the surface roughness of LGP with etched dots is very high, so there is much loss of light. In order to overcome the limit of current etched dot patterned LGP, optical pattern design with microlens of $50{\mu}m$ diameter was applied in the present study. The microlens pattern fabricated by modified LiGA with thermal reflow process was applied to the optical design of LGP and optical simulation was carried out to know tendency of microlens patterned LGP simultaneously. The attention was paid to the effects of different aspect ratio(i.e. $0.2\sim0.5$) of optical pattern conditions to the brightness distribution of BLU with microlens patterned LGP. Finally, high aspect ratio microlens patterned LGP showed superior results to the one made by low aspect ratio in average luminance.
