According to this invention, an insulation film 39 is provided on a rear surface on a silicon substrate 31 and a transparent electrode 40 is further provided thereon, and by applying a negative voltage with respect to the potential of the silicon substrate 31 from a voltage supply source 41 to the insulation film 39 through the transparent electrode 40, positive holes are accumulated on a silicon boundary surface of the substrate rear surface side and a structure equivalent to a state in which a positive hole accumulation layer exists on aforesaid silicon boundary surface is to be created. Thus, various problems in the related art can be avoided.

An operational air conditioning mode is allowed to set to a temperature uniformization mode and a spot air conditioning mode, and is selectively switched between these modes automatically by a control means (53) or manually. In such an embodiment, a comfortably air-conditioned state is obtained in all the areas of a space to be air-conditioned W during air conditioning performed in the temperature uniformization mode, and the comfort is ensured by intensively air-conditioning the surroundings of a person during air conditioning performed in the spot air conditioning mode. At the same time, since an unnecessary air conditioning is not provided to a region without the presence of a person, energy conservation is improved, for example, and thus the comfort of air conditioning and energy conservation are both achieved.

The present invention relates to cooling/heating units and their installation to wall or window openings, and more particularly pertains to a new and improved casing to secure the air conditioner while protecting against heat leakages through the casing itself.

The ventilator may include a housing having mating halves of a molded polymeric material, first and second chambers disposed within the housing to convey separate first and second streams of air, a heat exchanger configured to intersect the first and second chambers, a first fan to circulate the first air stream through the first chamber, a second fan to circulate the second air stream through the second chamber, and a fan motor driving the first and second fans. The ventilator may also be configured to prevent frost build-up in or on the energy ventilator, to provide efficient cooling, and maintain one or more desired environmental conditions.

A flexible flat panel display where nanoparticles are used for the active layer of the TFTs and the substrate is flexible and can be manufactured at room temperature, a flat panel display device having the same, a method of manufacturing a TFT, a method of manufacturing a flat panel display device, and a method of manufacturing a donor sheet. In making the TFTs in the display, a donor sheet is used to transfer the nanoparticles from the sheet to the substrate. The thin film transistor is placed on a substrate and includes a channel region which has at least one P-type or N-type nanoparticle arranged in a lengthwise direction, wherein the lengthwise direction of the P-type or N-type nanoparticles is parallel to a P-type or an N-type nanoparticle line partitioned off on the substrate.

Disclosed is an air cleaner having independent fluid paths and a home appliance having the air cleaner. The air cleaner includes a front panel having a plurality of air inlets formed thereon for air to flow in from outside of the case, first and second blower devices arranged inside the case to allow air to flow in through the plurality of air inlets, first and second filter units arranged to filter the air flowing in by the first and second blower devices, a first outlet located on the case to release the air, a second outlet formed at a different location from that of the first outlet, a first fluid path formed between one of the plurality of air inlets and the first outlet; and a second fluid path formed between another of the plurality of air inlets and the second outlet.

There is provided a quantum-key distribution method between a plurality of users or groups. A center prepares a predetermined number of entangled states consisting of qubits equal to the number of the users, and generates quantum states consisting of the qubits belonging to each of the entangled states and corresponding to each of the users. The center transmits each of the quantum states to each of the users after an authentication process. Each of the users receiving the quantum state makes public an axis used to measure each of the qubits constituting the quantum states. The number of users in each group measuring the qubits with a predetermined axis is represented by module 4. If the sum of the module 4 of each group is even, each group collects the qubit measurement results of the users and acquires each group key. Therefore, it is possible to provide a high-security quantum-key distribution method between an unspecified number of users or groups.

An exhaust assembly is provided for expelling contaminated air from a building. The assembly includes a plenum, a fan assembly attached to the plenum, and a windband mounted on top of the fan assembly. The fan assembly is constructed of cylindrical outer and inner walls which define a drive chamber and surrounding annular space. A fan driven by a motor whose shaft extends downward from the drive chamber draws exhaust air from the plenum and blows it up through the annular space to a nozzle at the top of the fan assembly. The motor is pivotally mounted inside the assembly to provide access to the motor components when it is desired to perform inspection and maintenance.

A collapsible, pop-up plenum for central heating and air conditioning equipment folds substantially flat for shipping and storage. The plenum's planar sidewalls form a rectangular box having an open input end. An endwall opposite the input end is attached by one edge to one sidewall and adapted to swing open and lay against said sidewall, allowing the plenum to fold flat for storage and transportation. A metallic, flanged collar adapted to attach the input end to the equipment cabinet is hinged to collapse with the plenum. Tightness of the plenum's metallized, elastic skin causes the plenum to spring open when released from its wrapping, facilitating assembly and installation.
