Design sensitivity analysis is proposed for the optimal shape design of three dimensional magnetostatic problems. The direct differentiation method is introduced for design sensitivity analysis and the boundary element method with reduced magnetic scalar potential as the state variable is used to analyze the magnetic characteristics. In the direct differentiation method, the design sensitivity, defined as the total derivative of the objective function with respect to the design variables, is calculated based on the variation of the state variable with respect to the design variable. And the variation of He state variable is calculated by differentiating the both sides of the system matrix equation obtained by applying boundary element method. Through the numerical example with simple electromagnet, the usefullness is proved.

In calculating the hysteresis loops with the Preisach model for ferromagnetism, Everett function is used generally. Because the Everett function is usually given as a table of the lattice-shaped, it is very difficult to directly obtain the Everest table from the data. Therefore this makes some defects in the calculation processes or the accuracy of the results. In this study, using the data sufficiently obtained from the experiment by drawing up the Everett table in the triangle-shaped, and applying the generalized hysteresis model in which the magnetization is depend on the sum of the applied magnetic field and the molecular field, it is shown that our proposal is acceptible in calculating the hysteresis processes.

The etch rate was evaluated according to gas ratio of $SF_6/BCl_3$, $N_2$ flow rate, RF power and chamber pressure. The chamber pressure, the most important factor, represented the maximum etch rate at about the pressure of 10 mTorr.

Accurate Capacitance-Voltage characteristics of Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor (MIS) devices in narrow band-gap semiconductors are presented. The unique band structure of narrow band-gap semiconductors is taken into account such as non-parabolicity and degeneracy. Compensated and partially ionized impurities either in the bulk or the space charge region are also considered. HgCdTe is a defect semiconductor, so this approach is very important for characterization and analysis of MIS devices.

Binary compound semiconductor InSb crystal which has direct-transition energy gap (0.17 ev) grown by vertical Bridgman method, then the electric-magnetic and optical properties of InSb crystal were surveyed. The growth rate of the crystals was 1mm/hr and the lattice constant $a_\circ$ of the grown crystal was 6.4863$\AA$. The electrical properties were examined by the Hall effect measurement with the van der Pauw method in the temperature range of 70$\sim$300K, magnetic field range of 500$\sim$10000 gauss. The undoped InSb crystal was n-type, the concentration and the electron mobility were 2$\sim$6 ${\times}$ $10^{16}$$\textrm{cm}^{-3}$ and carrier mobility was 6$\sim$2${\times}$$10^{4}$$cm^{2}$/v.sec at 300K, respectively. The carrier mobility was decreased with $T^{-1/2}$ due to the lattice scattering above 100K, and decreased by impurity scattering below100K. The magnetoresistance was increased 190% at 9000 gauss as compared with non-appliced magnetic field and the magnetoresistance was increased with increasing the magnetic field. Also, the Hall voltage was increased with increasing the magnetic field and decreasing the thickness of sample. The optical energy band gap of InSb at room temperature determined using the IR spectrometer was 0.167eV. The diffusion depth of Zn into InSb proportionally increased with the square root of diffusion time and the activation energy for Zn diffusion was 0.67eV. The temperature dependence of diffusion coefficient was $D=4.25{\times}10^{-3}$exp (-0.67/$K_BT$).

An accurate method for extracting both Si film doping concentration and front or back silicon-to-oxide fixed charge density of fully depleted SOI devices is proposed. The method utilizes the current-to-voltage and capacitance-to-voltage characteristics of both SOI NMOSFET and PMOSFET which have the same doping concentration. The Si film doping concentration and the front or back silicon-to-oxide fixed charge density are extracted by mainpulating the respective threshold voltages of the SOI NMOSFET and PMOSFET according to the back surface condition (accumulation or inversion) and the capacitance-to-voltage characteristics of the SOI PMOSFET. Device simulations show that the proposed method has less than 10% errors for wide variations of the film doping concentration and the front or the back silicon-to-oxide fixed charge density.

In this paper, a Hybrid method for an effective channel length($L_{eff}$) on lightly doped drain(LDD) MOSFET's is proposed. In order to investigate the difference of the gate bias and substrate bias defendence of the $L_{eff}$ among various LDD structures, the $L_{eff}$ of the LDD's are extensively examined using simulations and measurement. one group is proposed for conventional MOSFET and the other group Is proposed for LDD MOSFET. It is shown that the $V_{bs}$-dependence of the n-region is different from $V_{gs}$-dependence of it.

Ultrathin metal-oxide-semiconductor(MOS) gate dielectrics have been fabricated by conventional thermal oxidation in $N_2O$ ambient. Compared to oxides grown in $O_2$, $N_2O$ oxides exhibit significantly low flatband voltage and small shift in flatband voltage. $N_2O$ oxidation induces a slight decrease in mobile ionic charge density($N_m$), fixed charge density($N_f$) and surface state charge density($N_{ss}$). This study establishes that $N_2O$ oxides may have a great impact on future MOS ULSI technology in which ultrathin gate dielectrics are required.

Using the PECVD method, the silicon nitride films were deposited by changing the $SiH_4/NH_3$ gas flow ratio from 0.2 to 1.4 at an interval of 0.2, AES, FTIR, and Spectroscopic Ellipsomter were used to analyze the film composition and structure, the refractive index, and the deposition rate. Also the C-V analysis was used to estimate the memory performance in the capacitor type MNOS memory devices, which utilized native oxide as the tunneling barrier, with the silicon nitride by the above deposition conditions. As a result, it was confirmed that the performance of MNOS memory devices with PECVD silicon nitride was comparable to that with LPCVD or APCVD silion nitride.

The $TiN/TiSi_2$ bilayer has been studied for contact barrier layer at ULSI recently. The $TiN/TiSi_2$ bilayer was formed by RTA in $NH_3$ ambient simultaneously after the Ti film was deposited on silicon substrate. In this paper, properties of $TiN/TiSi_2$ bilayer was evaluated according to $BF_2$ dopant concentration and dopant redistribution in $TiN/TiSi_2$ bilayer was also analyzed. In this experiment, the composition and structure of $TiN/TiSi_2$ bilayer were constant even though dopant concentration increased but silicide growth rate decreased. Boron atoms were redistributed within TiN film and at $TiSi_2Si$ interface during the bilayer formation.

This paper describes an improved analytic model for a gallium-arsenide MESFET computer simmulation and deals with application to microwave performance. The current-voltage characteristics, the dependence of the capacitances, transconductances and drainconductances on bias conditions and the dependences of s-parameters on various frequencies are calculated. The model is base on a physical picture revealed through two-dimensional numerical analysis, and takes into account transition region and diffusion process under gate but it require a very small computer time. Simulation results agree well with the experimental data found earlier by other author The proposed model can be used for a computer-aided design of GaAs MESFET devices and for a study of application to microwave performance.

This thesis was investigated on optical-and ion-induced characteristics in positive(a-$Se_{75}Ge_{25}$) and negative (Ag/a-$Se_{75}Ge_{25}$) resists for focused-ion-beam microlithogaphy. The a-$Se_{75}Ge_{25}$ inorganic thin film shows an increase in optical absorption after exposure to$\sim$$10^{16}$ dose(ions/$cm^{2}$) of Ga ions. The observed shift in the absorption edge toward longer wavelengths is consistent with that in films exposed to band-gap photons ($\sim$$10^{20}$ photons/$cm^{2}$). But, ion induced shift is twice as much as that in film exposed to optical radiation. This result may be related with microstructural rearrangements with in the short range of SeGe network. Due to changes in the short range order, the chemical bonding may be affected, which results in increased chemical dissolution in ion-induced film. Also, this resist exhibits good thermal stability because of its high Tg(~220$^{\circ}C$). The composition of deposited film measured by AES is consistent with that of bulk.

Fluorine-doped ($SnO_2$:F) thin films obtained by pyrosol deposition method have been exposed to R.F. excited pure hydrogen plasma under the following conditions; substrate temperature of 200$^{\circ}C$, $H_2$ pressure of 1 Torr, R.F. input power of 50 mW/$\textrm{cm}^{2}$, $H_2$ flow rate of 30cc/min and exposure time of 15-600 seconds. It is found that the sheet resistance of the films remains unchanged or rather slightly reduces for initial exposure time of 30-60 seconds, but increases sharply with further increasing the exposure time. The optical transmittance of $SnO_2$:F films slows a rapid fall with increasing exposure time except for a film obtained with a solution having $CH_3OH/H_2O$ mol ratio of 2.65, its degradations at the exposure time of 30-60 seconds are about 7-15%. In addition, the exposure of the films to hydrogen plasma atmosphere leads to remarkable changes in the microstructure and chemical composition, which should be attributed to the reduction of $SnO_2$ to SnO and to elemental Sn.

A cryogenic electron cyclotron resonance plasma etching system has been built to study wafer-temperature in the silicon etching characteristics. The wafer temperature was controlled from -150 to +30 $^{\circ}C$ during etching using the liquid nitrogen cooled helium gas. Although silicon was etched isotropically in $SF_6$ plasma at room temperatures, we found that it is possible to suppress the etch undercut in Si by reducing a substrate temperature without side wall passivation. In addition, the selectivity of silicon to photoresist was improved considerably at a low wafer temperature. Etch rates, anisotropy and selectivity to photo resist are measured as a function of the wafer temperature in the region of -125 $\sim$ 25$^{\circ}C$ and rf bias power of 20W $\sim$ 80W.

In this paper, we investigate $\pi$-A isotherms of biological lipid layer such as cholesterol and phosphatidyl choline to study a gas sensor characteristics which response only to specific materials. And, we also deposit it on the surface of quartz crystal by vertical dipping method and horizontal lifting method. Then, we evaluate the deposition status of cholesterol and phosphatidyl choline LB film using AT-cut quartz crystal. We obtain the following results: (1) Cholesterol's solid surface pressure is about 20$\sim$40(dyne/cm) and limiting area is about 50${\AA}^2$/molecule. And, phosphatidyl choline's surface pressure is about 25$\sim$40(dyne/cm) and limiting area is about 20 ${\AA}^2$/molecule. (2) When LB films are deposited, the deposition ratio is coincident with the frequency shift. Therefore, we can evaluate the deposition status of LB film. (3) For cholesterol, Y type LB films are deposited up to 15 layers by vertical dipping method. (4) For phosphatidyl choline, X typo LB films are deposited to 15 layers by horizontal lifting method. But, in case of vertical dipping method, the deposition status is not good.

This paper describes optimum conditions for depositing Langumuir Blodgett(LB) films. $\pi$-A isotherm characteristics were studied with the following species, $C_{18}$-Quinolium(TCNQ), $C_{22}$-Quinolium(TCNQ), Azobenzene, Arachidic Acid, by varing length of alkyl chains, temperacture, pH, spreading amount, barrier moving speed and etc. We have observed the change of $\pi$-A isotherm depending on the above variations. From there we investigate the depositing conditions of LB films for each material.

Langmuir-Blodgett method is the best candidate for the development of the future molecular electronic devices. But, this molecular thin film devices requires the bulk properties that was influenced by the molecular arrangements and orientations. So, these are of current interest in molecular electronic device fabrications of new materials. In this experiment, the N-docosylquinolium-TCNQ LB films were deposited on the surface pressures of 30 mN/m and 45 mN/m. We measured the polarized UV/visible absorptions of deposited films for the study of the molecular arrangements and orientations. The polarized UV/visible absorption variation on the incidence and polarization angle of the LB film deposited on the surface pressure of 45 mN/m shown methodically variated. So, we concluded that the LB film deposited on 45 mN/mwas arranged better than that obtained at 30 mN/m.

Vinyl-Pyridine and Styrene, which have optical function in the organic world and manufactured double later. It is examined optics properties by it respectively. At the middle wave length as 550[nm], the transmittance is double layer smaller than one of single layer. The refractive index with wave length is various from 1.55 to 1.65. Then, it is known that measured results are valid because the extinction coefficient(K) is about $10^{-4}$ for variation of refractive index.

In order to study electrical properties of epoxy composites with various additives rates and curing conditions, dielectric measurements have been performed over a frequency range from 30 [Hz] to 3 [MHz] and a temperature range of 20[$^{\circ}C$]$\sim$180[$^{\circ}C$] The observed higher values of dielectric permittivity and loss In the case of filled epoxy are attributed to MWS polarization effect. The low temperature peak assigned to the $\beta$-relaxation process is attributed to the enhenced rotation of the methyl group attached to the main chain and the presence of filler. And the high temperature peak ($\alpha$-relaxation process)is associated with the segmental motion or glass transition process.

DC dielectric breakdown properties of epoxy composites with various additives rates and curing conditions were investigated at the temperature range from 20[$^{\circ}C$] to 180[$^{\circ}C$]. At low temperature an improvement of the characteristics is observed due to curing agents. The additions of filter is lower the temperature dependences of the breakdown strength. Samples treated with silan have a higher breakdown strength than non-treating filled samples.

Recent investigations have been made on polymer Insulators of various types. The findings are related to experience on operational lines in foreign countries, design concepts, materials and tests about outdoor properties. Over last decade improvements have been occured in the design and construction techniques of polymer insulators. For transmission and distribution lines, it may be advantageous or even necessary to replace, the conventional porcelain or tempered glass insulators by lighter polymer insulators which have better mechanical properties.

Polymers have good electrical properties as an insulation material. Though they show more and less poor resistance to heat, radiation, and oxygen, the poor properties have been overcame by developing new resin with the saturated molecular structure and compounding resin with resistive fillers. Polymer insulators have many advantages; light weight, good mechanical properties, better contaimination performance, low cost by mass productivity, no destruction in many pieces, good flexibility in design, short manufacturing time. Usage of polymer insulators has increased rapidly with good credit on long term properties in advanced nations and will continue to grow.

The fast-rising surges having up to 180ns of front time and 3.42 p.u of peak value were measured at the 154KV substations. The fast-rising surges are expected to cause electric breakdown because the penetrating surges to the transformers result in the higher stress in the winding end than the average stress along the winding.

The flow at the experimental position's section is described as fully developed laminar flow. The important results obtained from this study are as follows. The ratio sparkover voltages to the Reynolds number(Re) increases with decreasing the Re. The velocity profiles can be visualized by this experimental method. The breakdown voltage ($V_{s1}$) for variation of T at 1[m/s] can be expressed by $V_{s1}$ = $K_1$(23.98$\rho$d + 6.98$\sqrt{\rho{d}}$) [kV].

A basic study on the discharge phenomenum of rod-to-rod microgap in the deionized water has been investigated with emphasis on the microgap spacing. The I-V charateristics for the case of ac and dc applied voltages had 3 different regions, a low conduction ohmic region, a medium conduction corona discharge region, and a high conduction arc discharge region. The corona discharge in the deionized water for the case of ac and de applied voltages had no different from the those in the air. But the arc discharge in the water occurred pulsative with sound which, however it is not clear, would be encounted due to the influences from the low temperature of the ambient water, vast of electrolytic generated electronegative gases(e.g. $O_2$, OH, O) and water molecules($H_2O$), and the space charge effects near the rod in the microgap from the ions of $H^+$, $OH^-$, $O_2^-$, etc, whose mobilities in the water are originally very low.

This paper presents a CAE(Computer Aided Engineering)system for solving electrostatic field problems by means of a small size computer such as a personal computer. The system software operated on the personal computer is composed of a CAD(Computer aided Design), electric field analysis by using FEM(Finite Element Method)and DB(Data Base)of insulating materials. In addition, we discuss an application of the system to analyzing electric field such as parallel plate electrodes with an insulation spacer, which result suggests that the visualization of electric field distribution and tolerance for insulation strength enables us to assure a simplified evaluation of the insulating design.

The partial discharge signal can be used as the detection signal of the deterioration of the power transformer insulation. Detecting this signal, the insulation failure and the point, in which the partial discharge is generated, could be predicted.

The proposed techniques measures the acoustic signal generated by the partial discharge, and counts the number of the waveforms above a threshold to diagonize transformers. Experiments showed that the proposed method improved diagonosis capability over the conventional PD method.

The free electron laser (FEL) is driven by electron beams with energies ranging from hundreds of kilovolt to hundreds of megavolt. Therefore the efficiency of FEL strongly depends on the beam quality. In this paper we examined the relation between applied voltage and magnetic field at the magnetically insulated cylindrical cold cathode for the high quality electron beam by the numerical analysis. As a result, we knew that the beam widening strongly depended on applied magnetic field and voltage.

In this paper, switching overvoltages are analyzed for future 765kv power system using EMTP(Electro Magnetic Transient Program) and compared with TNA (Transient Network Analyzer) study results which was previously undertaken during overseas training in 1980 and 1988. The result shows the maximum of 2.10 PU at midpoint of 310Km transmission line which is higher than those of TNA study by 0.4 PU. The deviation of EMTP result from TNA is caused by limitation of nonlinear representation and also frequency dependent modeling in EMTP. Further analysis are required to get more exact switching overvoltage factors for future KEPCO 765KV system not only by EMTP but also TNA.

A low pressure DC plasma jet has been used to obtain diamond films from a mixture of $CH_4$ and $H_2$ with high deposition rate (>1$\mu\textrm{m}$/min). The effects of the deposition conditions such as torch geometry, substrate temperature, gas mixing ratio, chamber pressure, axial magnetic field on the diamond film properties such as morphology, purity, uniformity of the film and deposition rate, etc. have been examined with the aid of Scanning Electron Microscopy, X-Ray Diffraction, and Raman Spectroscopy. Both the growth rate and particle size increased rapidly for low methane concentrations but saturated and the morphology changed from octahedral to cubic structure when the concentration exceeded 1.0 %. Higher growth rates (>1.5${\mu}m$/min) can be obtained by applying an axial magnetic field to the DC plasma jet. Diamond obtained from the magnetized plasma jet also shows a sharp peak at 1332.5$cm^{-1}$ in the Raman Spectra and this result implies that higher growth rate with a good quality diamond films can he obtained by applying an external magnetic field to the plasma jet.

When the circuit-breaker switches off, an electric arc is established between the contacts. It is very important to understand the arc characteristics for the design of a circuit breaker. This article describes the theoretical analysis of the arc characteristics by means of energy integral method when convection dominated low current arcs are produced in the dual-airflow nozzle of a model interrupter. In order to investigate the arc radius, the average electric field strength and the arc voltage, the arc column is divided into two regions, and then the energy conservation equation is applied to the arc in each region together with the axial cold flow mass flux function, steady-state mass balance equation and Ohm's law. The results show good agreements with those of other researchers.

The fluorescence characteristics of near UV dye, BBQ pumped by Ar flashlamp have been studied for various electrical input energies applied to the flashlamp and argon fill pressures in the flash tube. The peak wavelength of fluorescence is about 380nm when the fluorescence intensity is at the peak value. The rise time of the fluorescence pulse is about 7 $\mu$sec and its FWHM is about 55$\mu$sec.

It is well-known that shock waves frequently occur inside the nozzle of the interrupter, and that they play important roles in the arc interruption. A model interrupter with two-dimensional dual-airflow nozzles was used for this experiment. The arc was ignited with 1.4 mil copper wire stretched between the electrodes which were spaced out 56 mm. The arc current of 60 to 230 A was achieved by adjusting the external resistance from 5.5 to 1.6 ohms. The arc tests have been conducted for investigating the air arc characteristics, and the effects of shock waves and nozzle pressure ratios on the arc voltage, the arc resistance, the arc power, and average electric field. The results of these tests have been analyzed to provide insights into the arc characteristics for gas circuit breakers. The average electric field is represented by the function of the arc current to show the negative E-I characteristic explicitly. The effects of shock waves and nozzle pressure ratios are shown to be significant for a circuit breaker performance.

It is shown that the ac breakdown strength, treeing phenomena, oxidation level, and crystallinity of unaged and aged distribution CV cables vary with XLPE insulations (characterizing anti-oxidation) and curing process. The maximum size of bow-tie tree in insulation influenced on the decrease of ac breakdown strength and the increase of oxidation level and crystallinity of XLPE according to aging time lead to increase the size and density of bow-tie trees.

The Acoustic Emission due to treeing progress in Crosslinked Polyethylene(XLPE) is studied by using the self developed automatic measuring system of acoustic emission. Tree progression and average pulse amplitude are almost in proportion to the rising of applied voltage but there is no proportionality relation between tree progression and pulse numbers. From now on, Skewness and kurtosis of average cycle, special property of $\phi$-a distribution characteristics can be confirmed as the useful parameters of treeing deterioration.

There are lots of problem which are delaminations and partial discharge of insulation materials in high-voltage rotating machines caused by mechanical, electrical and thermal aging. Several experiments have been aiming at finding the useful diagnostic parameters from the partial discharge characteristics by applying a new measurement techniques.

This paper deals with the dielectric behaviors of $SF_6$ gas and prebreakdown growth caused by lightning impulse voltages In inhomogeneous field perturbed with a fixed needle-shaped protrusion on the electrode. The measuring interpretation of the external current induced by moving charges is described. The temporal growth of prebreakdown is observed by using a shunt and photomultiplier. The prebreakdown processes are initiated by the first streamer corona at a needle protrusion, the flashover of the main gap in the positive polarity is very sensitive to the local field and propagates into the gap with the leader mechanism. It Is found that the dependence of the prebreakdown phenomena on the polarity of applied voltages is caused by the effect of space charges. In addition, the proposed measuring techniques are very useful to perform the measurements of avalanche currents, corona discharges in inhomogeneous fields and partial discharges in voids.

In this study microprocessor and pheripal LSIs are used for eliminating these problems and successful results have been obtained.
