A refrigerator includes a front frame part that defines a part of a front surface exterior and is installed on a front side of an outer casing that defines an outer appearance of the refrigerator.

Refrigerator

A refrigerator includes a door frame and a perimetric surface of an insulation door panel of a panel unit that are spaced apart from each other. A component receiving groove is provided between the door frame and the perimetric surface of the insulation door panel, so that an operation module is received in the component receiving groove. When the operation module is received in the component receiving groove, at least of a part of the operation module is arranged to face a front surface of the panel unit through a bezel portion constituting the front surface of the panel unit. Therefore, a space for installing the operation module such as a detection sensor or a touch sensor is provided to be sufficiently wide along an edge of a door.

A touch screen is disclosed. The touch screen comprises: a display panel displaying an image; and a touch panel detecting a touch of a user, wherein the touch panel comprises a 2D/3D touch pattern layer having a 2D touch electrode pattern and a 3D touch electrode pattern disposed on both sides of a substrate.

Touch screen, touch panel and electronic device having same

A touch pad is provided. The touch pad includes a transparent piezoelectric film layer configured to generate an electrical signal varying according to a touch pressure, and an electrode layer including a plurality of transparent electrodes disposed in a plurality of areas of the transparent piezoelectric film layer and configured to sense a voltage of the electrical signal generated from the plurality of areas.

Touch pad and electronic apparatus using the same, and method of producing touch pad

A reconfigurable mobile device is provided. The reconfigurable mobile device includes a first body, a second body that is disposed at a side of the first body and is movable with respect to the first body, a multistage supporter that is provided between the first body and the second body and comprises at least two supporting members that are inserted and received in at least one of the first body and the second body according to movement of the first body and the second body, a screen that is provided in the multistage supporter and is wound or unwound according to the movement of the first body and the second body, and a projector that is provided in at least one of the first body and the second body and configured to project an image toward the screen.

Reconfigurable mobile device

Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for detecting a surface plasmon resonance. The apparatus may radiate a polarized beam of light to a device, such as a surface plasmon resonance generator, and may measure variations in a temperature of the device to detect whether a surface plasmon resonance has occurred. The detection of a surface plasmon resonance may be associated with the presence of a particular material such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or materials disrupting ozone, for example.

Apparatus and method for detecting surface plasmon resonance

Disclosed are a heating member having a resistive heating layer and a fusing device using the heating member. The heating member includes the resistive heating layer on an outer circumferential surface of a load support member. Electricity is supplied to an inner circumferential surface and an outer circumferential surface of the resistive heating layer in a direction perpendicular to the resistive heating layer.

The disclosure provides an electrophotographic toner including a binder resin; and a light absorber, wherein the light absorber includes a metal nanorod and a surfactant covering a surface of the metal nanorod.

Electrophotographic toner

Disclosed are a light absorption device, a fixing unit including the same and an image forming apparatus including such fixing unit. The light absorption device includes a plurality of dielectric layers containing nano-rods. Surface plasmon resonance generated in response to certain wavelengths corresponding to the dielectric constants of the dielectric layers can result in an improvement in the light absorption efficiency. Further improvements can be realized by adjusting the dielectric constants of the dielectric layers.
