We have studied the relationship between static mode behavior and dynamic characteristics of multiple transverse-mode VCSELs by measuring the modal L-I and I-V characteristics. Dependence of the resonance frequencies of RIN (relative intensity noise) spectra on the injection current can be understood by modal L-I characteristics and mode-coupling effects. Each transverse mode behaves as an independent diode laser with the different threshold current in large active-area VCSELs, and the multiple-step turn-on is observed when step-current input is applied. This multiple-step turn-on is a result of different turn-on delay times of the transverse modes. Since the multiple-step turn-on increases the rise-time significantly, the wide active-area VCSELs are not suitable for high-speed optical transmitters unless the input current is adjusted for single transverse-mode operation.

전류를 흘렸을 때 양극과 음극에 따라 움직이는 미세한 나노입자를 이용하여 색, 글자, 그림 등을 표시하는 응용디스플레이 기술이 전기영동디스플레이(electrophoretic display)이다. 최근 전자종이 등 상품화가 진행되면서 전기영동디스플레이에 대한 관심증대와 함께 기술개발이 지속적으로 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분산중합을 이용하여 $TiO_2$ core 입자에 polystyrene을 shell로 코팅하여 마이크로캡슐형의 전기영동디스플레이에 적합한 입자를 제조하고 성능을 분석하였다. 먼저 분산제의 종류, 모노머의 농도, 개시제의 농도에 따라 제조된 대전복합입자의 크기 및 분포를 보면, 분산제의 종류를 달리 하였을때를 제외하고 대체로 균일하였다. 입경의 변화를 보면, 약 200-300nm의 $TiO_2$가 개질에 의해 400-500nm의 입경을 나타내는 것으로부터 200nm 두께의 shell층을 갖는다는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 분산제의 종류에 따라서는 분산제를 사용하지 않는 경우가 오히려 제조된 입자의 분포가 균일함을 알 수 있었고 모노머의 농도에 따른 변화는 볼 수 없었으며 입경분포가 균일한 입자가 제조되었음을 알 수 있었다. 대전복합입자의 TGA 곡선으로부터 $300^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 polystrene shell에 의한 분해를 볼 수 있었고 $600^{\circ}C$ 이후에 잔류된 core의 $TiO_2$ 입자를 확인 할 수 있었다. 이 결과로부터 $TiO_2$ core-polystyrene shell형의 전자 종이용 대전복합입자의 제조를 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 제조된 대전복합입자의 zeta potential을 보면, (+)전하를 띄며 64.8mV의 비교적 높은 zeta potential을 가지는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 그리고 $TiO_2$ 대전복합입자와 같은 방법으로 제조된 흑색 대전복합입자를 혼합하여 cell test를 측정한 결과, cell에 ${\pm}$10V의 저전압을 가했을 때에도 비교적 응답속도가 빠른 입자의 구동현상을 확인 할 수 있었다.

카본나노튜브는 상용되는 기존의 센서에 비해 표면적이 넓어 감도가 놀고 응답속도가 빠르다. 또한 나노 스케일의 크기를 가지므로 고직접화를 실현할 수 있으며 기능복구성이 뛰어나 상온동작을 통한 저전력화가 가능하다. 본 실험에서는 아크방전법으로 합성한 카본나노튜브를 가스센서로 제작하여 상온에서 NH$_3$, NO 가스와의 반응 특성을 평가하였다. 또한 origin soot와 이를 정제한 purified CNT를 SEM(주사전자현미경), TEM(투과전자현미경), Raman scattering spectroscopy(라만 산란 분광기)를 통해 재료적 특성을 조사하고 이를 가스 감응 곡선과 연관하여 비교, 분석하였다. 전극에 CNT막을 형성시키기 위해 3g의 N,N dimethylformamide 용액에 CNT 10mg을 분산시킨 후 2시간동안 초음파 처리하였다. 이 용액을 mask를 이용해 전극 위에 막을 형성시킨 후 20$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하였다. 이렇게 제조된 origin soot와 purified CNT센서는 flow system을 이용하여 측정하였고 $N_2$분위기 하에서 센서를 안정화시킨 후 측정가스와의 반응을 살펴보았다 센서의 반응속도, 회복속도, 감도 등의 측정결과 origin soot는 NH$_3$ 25ppm에서 20%, purified CNT는 1%의 감도를 보여 20배 높은 감도를 보았다. NO 25ppm의 경우에도 origin soot가 8%, purified CNT는 0.8%의 감도를 보여 10배 높은 감도를 보였다. 이는 탄소입자가 많은 origin soot가 purified CNT 보다 표면적이 넓어 보다 많은 가스 흡착 싸이트를 가지기 때문이다. 하지만 origin soot는 반응시간과 회복속도가 Purified CNT 보다 2배 이상 느려 표면적 증가에 따른 가스 흡착과 탈착 능력이 떨어짐을 알 수 있었다. 또한 CNT와 가스사이의 전하 이동 방향에 따라 NH$_3$는 양의 감도를 NO는 음의 감도를 보였다 이는 전하의 이동 방향에 따라 전하와 캐리어 사이의 결합 및 해리가 일어나게 되고 결국 카본나노튜브 내의 캐리어 수를 증감시킴에 따라 나타나는 현상이다. 이러한 가스의 감도는 농도에 따라 증가하였으며 origin soot를 이용하여 1ppm이하의 NH$_3$ 가스를 검출할 수 있었다.

In order to predict the propagation of road traffic noise over level terrain, this paper presents the model of the simple monopole and dipole source. Excess attenuations by ground acoustic impedance with continuity are investigated by outdoor experiments. In this results, the propagation of road traffic noise is affected by the acoustic impedance properties of the ground surface over which the noise travels, particularly when the receiver position is close to the surface. These results are then used to derive sound pressure level contours for the attenuation with distance of the equivalent energy level received from passing vehicle. The percentage of deep sleep and the number of wakings are studied for continuous traffic noise. The hearing loss and sensitivity threshold shift is investigated by changing the various parameters such as the effects of aging and noise exposure. Evaluation of the response of human to traffic noise is discribed. It is shown that exposure to excessive noise can cause temporary loss of hearing that may become permanent if the exposure is prolonged or intense.

Applications involving moving objects require index structures to handle frequent updates of objects' locations efficiently. Several methods to index the current, the past and the future positions of moving objects have been proposed for the applications. Most of them are based on R-tree like index structures. Some researches have made efforts to improve update performance of R-trees that are actually focused on query performance. Even though the update performance is improved by researchers' efforts, the overhead and immaturity of concurrency control algorithms of R-trees makes us hesitate to choose them for moving objects. In this paper, we propose an update efficient indexing method that can be applicable for indexing the past, the current and the future locations. The proposed index is based on B+-Trees and Hilbert curve. We present an advanced Hilbert curve that adjusts automatically the order of Hilbert curve in subregions according to the data distribution and the number of data objects. Through empirical studies, we show that our strategy achieves higher response time and throughput.

In this study, shape optimization was performed to improve the vibration isolation capability of an anti-vibration rubber assembly, which is used in the field option cabin of agricultural tractors. A uniaxial tension test and biaxial tension test were performed to characterize the hyper-elastic material properties of rubber, and the data were used to calibrate the material model used in the finite element analyses. A field test was performed to quantify the input excitation from the tractor and the output response at the cabin frame. To account for the nonlinear behavior of rubber, static analyses were performed and the load-displacement curve of rubber was derived. The stiffness of the rubber was calculated from this curve and input to the harmonic analyses of the cabin. The results were verified using the test data. Taguchi's parameter design method was used to find the optimal shape of the anti-vibration rubber assembly, which indicated a shape with reduced stiffness. The vibration of the cabin frame was reduced by the optimization by as much as 35% compared to the initial design.

This paper proposes a density method based topology optimization of a perpendicular magnetic recording system design in which the saturation effect is taken into account. During the topology optimization process in magnetic fields, the magnetic reluctivity is updated in accordance with the changes in element density determined by a sensitivity analysis. The magnetic reluctivity is determined from a B-H curve and is used to represent nonlinear material property, i.e., the saturation effect. The sensitivity for a generalized response functional is formulated using the adjoint variable method in which the nonlinear property is taken into account and the objective function is set such that the magnetic energy in the media is maximized. Effects due to the nonlinear property can be observed from a numerical study in which the linear and the nonlinear topology optimization results are compared.

It is well known that there are two experimental errors on acoustic decay measurements. ,One is due to the influence of the band pass filter the other one is that of an averaging device. In this paper the influence of the filter is investigated in detail. To minimize the influence of the filter, the product of the filter bandwidth B (3dB bandwidth) and the reverberation time T/sub 60/ of the room under test should be at least 16. Moreover, if the initial part of an acoustic decay curve is important, the strong requirement, i. e. BT/sub 60/〉64, must be satisfied. In this paper, the wavelet filter bank instead of the band pass filter bank is applied to obtain an acoustic decay curve. As a result, the influence of filter is reduced and then the value of BT/sub 60/ required for obtaining an acceptable decay curve becomes at least 4. The strong requirement for the initial part of a decay curve is also replaced by the BT/sub 60/〉16 instead of BT/sub 60/〉64.

This article presents a multi-scale simulation approach starting from the molecular level for the adsorption process development, specifically, in n-hexane adsorption on activated carbon. A grand canonical Monte-Carlo(GCMC) method is used for the prediction of adsorption isotherms of n-hexane on activated carbon at the molecular level. Geometric effects and hydrodynamic properties of the adsorption column are examined by means of the two dimensional CFD(computational fluid dynamics) simulation. The adsorption isotherms from the molecular simulation and the axial diffusivity from the CFD simulation are exploited for the process simulation where the elution curve of n-hexane is obtained. For the first moment(mean residence time) of the pulse-response with respect to temperature and flowrate, the process simulation results obtained from this three-steps multiscale simulation approach show a good agreement with experimental data within 20% of maximum difference. The multi-scale simulation approach addressed in this study will be useful to accelerate the adsorption process development, while reducing the number of experiments required.

Passive noise reduction is a classical approach to attenuate industrial noise, and an active noise cancellation has several advantages over the passive noise cancellation. The active noise reduction system offers a better low frequency performance with a smaller and lighter system. This paper presents a simple active closed loop control system which consists of an controller for inverting and compensating the phase delay, a microphone for picking up the external noise, and a loudspeaker for radiating the acoustic out of phase signal to reduce the external noise, and external noise can be reduced after compensating the phase difference to be $180^{\circ}$ in the frequency of maximum value in the amplitude response. The noise of the phase delay covered from $50^{\circ}\;to\;310^{\circ}$ tends to be reduced in the active noise control system and it is possible to obtain a noise cancelling of up to approximately 20[dB] at the ears in the enclosurer.
