반세기가 지나는 동안 우리는 반도체의 크기가 계속해서 작아지는 것을 경험해왔다. 반도체 디바이스들의 차원이 100 nm 이하로 작아지면서, 나노와이어나 나노튜브로 이루어진 나노 소자들은 필연적으로 양자효과[1] 같은 저차원효과가 나타나게 된다. 특히 1차원 반도체 구조에서는 전자상태 밀도의 변화에 수반되는 전자-포논의 상호작용이 감소되어 전자이동도가 증가할 것으로 예측되었고, 이러한 이동도의 증가는 그동안 나노와이어나 나노튜브의 전기 전도도 증가가 일어난 실험적 데이터를 설명하는 이론적 받침이 되었다[2]. 한편 일차원 반도체 구조 체에서는 채널의 저차원화에 따른 전기장의 불균일성이 심화되고 이로 인하여 벌크와 매우 다른 전기수송 특성이 나타날 수 있는데 이러한 점이 그동안 간과되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 시뮬레이션을 통하여 양자효과를 배제한 정전기적인 저차원 효과만으로도 전기 전도도가 증가할 수 있음을 보이고자 한다. 우리는 푸아송 방정식과 표동-확산 방정식을 SILVACO사의 ATLAS 3D 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 풀었다. 이 시뮬레이션에 사용된 실리콘 나노와이어는 길이를 $2{\mu}m$로 고정시키고 다양한 정사각형 단면적을 가진 구조로 하였다. 여기서 정사각형의 한변을 10nm 에서 100 nm까지 변화시켰다. 실리콘 채널의 도핑농도가 $1{{\times}}1016cm-3$일 경우, 낮은 전압, 즉 < 0.5 V 이하 영역에서는 벌크와 같은 선형적인 전류-전압 특성이 나타나지만, 그 이상의 전압 영역에서는 전류-전압 그래프가 위로 휘어지며(super-linear) 전기전도도가 확연히 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 예를 들어 2 V에서는 벌크에 비하여 흐르는 전류가 2배나 더 향상되었다. 이런 비선형적인 성질은 높은 전압을 인가하였을 때 나노와이어 채널 전반에 걸쳐 charge neutrality가 깨지게 되고 전하밀도가 증가하여 전도도 증가가 일어나는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이 결과는 기존의 나노선에서의 전기전도도 증가 현상을 설명할 수 있는 대안을 제공할 수 있다.

In an attempt to evaluate the effect of six starch sources-potato starch acetate, corn starch acetate, waxy corn starch, corn starch, potato starch, and wheat starch on properties of frozen noodle, amylograph characteristics of starch-wheat flour composites, cooking quality, maximum cutting force and sensory properties of cooked frozen noodles were examined. Compared with 100% wheat flour as control, potato starch acetate and potato starch-wheat flour composites had slightly lower initial pasting temperature and wheat flour composites with acetylated starches, waxy corn starch and potato starch had slightly higher maximum peak viscosity. At cooking quality examination of noodles made from wheat flour-starch composites, volume and weight of cooked noodles were increased and cook loss was decreased with the addition of acetylated starches and waxy corn starch. Maximum cutting forces of cooked frozen noodles containing more than 15% of potato starch acetate and only 15% of corn starch acetate were higher than that of control. Other starches except potato starch improved sensory properties of cooked frozen noodles and the greatest positive effect was acetated potato starch.

We have obtained retention data of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, phenol, and acetophenone at 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 $^{\circ}C$ in 30/70, 40/60, 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, and 80/20 (v/v %) methanol/water eluents using a $C_18$ phase with a high ligand density. We drew van't Hoff plots from the data, and computed enthalpies and entropies of solute transfer from the mobile to the stationary phase. The cavity formation effect was found the major factor that governs the solute distribution between the mobile and stationary phases. The hydrophobic effect became significant in highly aqueous mobile phases. We also concluded that the Shodex C18-5B stationary phase was a polymer-like phase with a high ligand density, and followed a partially adsorption-like mechanism.

In this study, closed-cell aluminum foam with an initial crack was investigated to produce an axial load-time graph. Using the 10-kN Landmarks of MTS Corporation, a 15-mm/min velocity of mode I shape was applied to the aluminum foam specimen using the displacement control method. ABAQUS 6.10 simulation was used to model and analyze the identical model in three dimensions under conditions identical to those of the experiment. The energy release rate was calculated on the basis of an axial load-displacement graph obtained from the experiment and a transient image of the crack length, and then an FE model was analyzed on the basis of this fracture energy condition. The relation between load and displacement was discussed; it was found that the aluminum foam deformed somewhat less than the adhesive layer owing to the difference in elastic modulus.

반도체, 디스플레이, 태양광 등의 공정에서 사용되는 웨이퍼의 크기가 증가하고, 생산률이 플라즈마의 밀도에 비례한다는 연구 결과가 발표되면서 대면적 고밀도 플라즈마 소스 개발에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히, ECR, ICP, Helicon plasma 등 고밀도 플라즈마 소스에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이에 따라, 여러 개의 ICP를 결합한 multiple ICP를 이용해 대면적 고밀도 플라즈마 소스 개발을 진행했다. Multiple ICP의 경우 각 ICP 소스에 같은 power (current)를 공급해야만 균일한 플라즈마 방전이 발생되어 균일도를 확보 할 수 있다. Current controller 같은 추가적인 장비를 설치하지 않고, power를 분배하는 transmission line을 coaxial 형태로 설계하고 같은 길이로 병렬 연결함으로써 각각의 ICP소스에서 균일한 플라즈마를 방전시킬 수 있었다. Power generator에서 보는 각 ICP의 total impedance는 각 ICP 소스의 impedance와 coaxial 형태의 transmission line의 characteristic impedance, frequency, 길이의 함수로 구할 수 있고, 이 total impedance가 일정하기 때문에 current가 균등하게 분배되어 각 ICP소스에 균등한 power 분배가 가능한 것이다. 실질적으로 ICP 소스의 impedance는 플라즈마 방전 유무에 따라 변화하기 때문에 일정하게 유지하는 것은 어렵다. Transmission line의 characteristic을 사용함으로써 ICP의 impedance의 변화에 상관없이 Total impedance를 일정하게 유지시킴으로써 균등한 power 분배가 가능하다는 것을 연구했다. Frequency는 13,56MHz, characteristic impedance를 $50{\Omega}$ (coaxial cable)으로 고정하고, ICP 소스의 플라즈마 방전 유무/antenna turn/소스 위치에 따른 total impedance를 transmission line의 길이에 따라 측정하고, 이를 이론값, 그래프와 비교하였다. 특정 length에서 플라즈마 방전 유무(ICP의 impedance 변화)와 상관없이 비교적 일정한 total impedance를 유지하는 것을 확인 했다. 이것은 특정 길이를 갖는 coaxial형태의 transmission line를 연결하면, total impedance는 플라즈마 방전 유무로 발생하는 ICP의 impedance 변화와 상관없이 일정하게 유지되어 각 ICP소스에 균등한 파워 분배가 가능하다는 것을 보여준 결과이다. 이것을 토대로 frequency에 따라(또는 characteristic impedance에 따라) 균등한 파워 분배가 가능한 coaxial 형태 transmission line의 특정 길이를 구할 수 있고, 대면적 소스에서 균등한 파워 분배를 위한 병렬연결에 적용할 수 있을 것이다.

In this paper, we present a novel ant-based hierarchical clustering algorithm, where ants repeatedly hop from one node to another over a weighted directed graph of k-nearest neighborhood obtained from a given dataset. We introduce a notion of node pheromone, which is the summation of amount of pheromone on incoming arcs to a node. The node pheromone can be regarded as a relative density measure in a local region. After a finite number of ants' hopping, we remove nodes with a small amount of node pheromone from the directed graph, and obtain a group of strongly connected components as clusters. We iteratively do this removing process from a low value of threshold to a high value, yielding a hierarchy of clusters. We demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithm with synthetic and real data sets, comparing with traditional clustering methods. Experimental results show the superiority of the proposed method to the traditional methods.

To evaluate the performance and durability of membrane, measurement of hydrogen crossover is needed during PEMFC(Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells) operation. In this work, concentration of hydrogen at cathode was analysed by gas chromatograph during operation suppling with air instead of inert gas into the cathode. The hydrogen permeated through membrane reacted with oxygen at cathode and then the concentration of hydrogen was lower than in case inert gas was supplied. Hydrogen concentration decreased as the flow rate of air increased at cathode. Increase of temperature, humidity and pressure of anode gas enhanced the hydrogen concentration at cathode. The hydrogen concentration was about 5.0 ppm at current density of $120mA/cm^2$ during general PEMFC operation.

A slider of the pantograph undergoes uneven and abnormal wear due to sliding contact with the catenary. In the case of rain, the loss of lubricant increases the frictional resistance for the reciprocating motion between the catenary and the slider, accelerating local wear. The slider in the winter should have good wear resistance, which can be achieved through alloy design. Uneven and abnormal wear were not observed in the results of a driving test using a wear resistant slider. It was found that the increased density of the slider enhanced the corrosive effects of Fe-Ti, preventing the occurrence of abnormal wear by maintaining the wear and arc resistance in the rainy season. Also, mechanical and electrical wear did not affect the composition of the slider, and this improved the wear resistance. Inaddition, the slider was applied to an entire train and was tested during driving; ananalysis of the correlation of the catenary was performed, including during the rainy season and the winter season.

Hydrogen permeability is widely used to evaluate the polymer membrane durability of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEMFC). Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) is mainly used to measure hydrogen permeability easily. There are many differences in LSV measurement method among researchers, and it is often difficult to compare the results. Therefore, in this study, we tried to confirm the accuracy by comparing the hydrogen permeability of LSV method and gas chromatograph which is difficult to measure but accurate value. The LSV method used the DOE and NEDO methods. When the hydrogen permeability was measured by varying the temperature and the relative humidity, the DOE LSV method showed an accuracy of less than 5% in the error range compared with the GC method. In the NEDO LSV method, the error was reduced when the hydrogen permeation current density was determined at the current value of 0.3 V as the DOE method.

In modern society, various video devices such as CCTV and black boxes are used for convenience. However, noise is frequently generated in the process of transmitting and receiving video images and video signals photographed at night. If such noise is not eliminated, the problem that the image is difficult to identify is generated. Accordingly, noise elimination of images in the image information is an indispensable step. Salt and Pepper noises are typical impulse noises among image noises. Previous research has been carried out as a method for eliminating noise, and CWMF, MMF and A-TMF are typical methods. In common, such a filter exhibits excellent performance in a low-density noise area, but a disadvantage is that noise elimination performance in a high-density noise area is somewhat insufficient. Accordingly, the proposed algorithm uses the inflection point of the histogram graph to separate areas and remove singular points, and proposes a weighting filter utilizing histogram distribution. PSNR was used for objective judgment.
