Abstract:
Provided are a phase-change memory device using a phase-change material having a low melting point and a high crystallization speed, and a method of fabricating the same. The phase-change memory device includes an antimony (Sb)-selenium (Se) chalcogenide SbxSe100-x phase-change material layer contacting a heat-generating electrode layer exposed through a pore and filling the pore. Due to the use of SbxSe100-x in the phase-change material layer, a higher-speed, lower-power consumption phase-change memory device than a GST memory device can be manufactured.

The plurality of switching elements are configured to be separately controlled on the basis of the individual control signals so as to prevent each electrode of the ferroelectric transistor from being floated.
Abstract:
Provided are a nonvolatile memory device and a method of fabricating the same, in which a phase-change layer is formed using a solid-state reaction to reduce a programmable volume, thereby lessening power consumption. The device includes a first reactant layer, a second reactant layer formed on the first reactant layer, and a phase-change layer formed between the first and second reactant layers due to a solid-state reaction between a material forming the first reactant layer and a material forming the second reactant layer. The phase-change memory device consumes low power and operates at high speed.
Abstract:
Provided are a transparent nonvolatile memory thin film transistor (TFT) and a method of manufacturing the same. The memory TFT includes source and drain electrodes disposed on a transparent substrate. A transparent semiconductor thin layer is disposed on the source and drain electrodes and the transparent substrate interposed between the source and drain electrodes. An organic ferroelectric thin layer is disposed on the transparent semiconductor thin layer. A gate electrode is disposed on the organic ferroelectric thin layer in alignment with the transparent semiconductor thin layer. Thus, the transparent nonvolatile memory TFT employs the organic ferroelectric thin layer, the oxide semiconductor thin layer, and auxiliary insulating layers disposed above and below the organic ferroelectric thin layer, thereby enabling low-cost manufacture of a transparent nonvolatile memory device capable of a low-temperature process.

An operating system switching method in a computer system having at least two operating systems is provided. The operating system switching method may include receiving a command of switching a first operating system that is currently running to a second operating system, causing the computer system to make a transition to a low-power sleeping state in response to the command, and booting the computer system using the second operating system in the transitioned state.
Abstract:
Provided is a display panel comprised of a white color organic luminescent element and a color filter for full color implementation, wherein a substrate in which an organic luminescent element is formed and a color filter are assembled and fixed to face each other with an adhesive pattern therebetween, and liquid oil is filled between the color filter and the substrate inside of the adhesive pattern so as to block external moisture or oxygen, so that deterioration of luminous characteristics due to the external moisture or oxygen may be prevented by encapsulating the organic luminescent element and the color filter with the liquid oil, which leads to enhance reliability and stability of the element, and also allows the encapsulation process to be performed with relatively simple steps and low cost.
