Based on the nonlinear spring model coupled with perturbation method, 2nd harmonic waves generated by oblique incident ultrasound on nonlinear crack interface were calculated and investigated. Reflected and transmitted waves from the interface were determined and analyzed at various angle of incidence for the cracks with different interfacial stiffness in order to estimate the 2nd harmonic generation of incident ultrasound. It was shown in computer simulation that the 2nd harmonic components changed much with the increase of incidence angle in both reflected and transmitted wave, but became very small when the incident angle approached toward 90 degree. It can be concluded that the 2nd harmonic component of reflected wave has a meaningful amplitude as much as the transmitted 2nd harmonic wave from partly closed crack.

In this paper, we have designed and fabricated high conversion gain Q-band active sub-harmonic mixers for a receiver of millimeter wave wireless communication systems. The fabricated active sub-harmonic mixer uses 2nd harmonic signals of a low local oscillator (LO) frequency. The fabricated mixer was successfully integrated by using $0.1{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistors (PHEMTs) and coplanar waveguide (CPW) structures. From the measurement, it shows that maximum conversion gain of 4.8 dB has obtained at a RF frequency of 40 GHz for 10 dBm LO power of 17.5 GHz. Conversion gain from the fabricated sub-harmonic mixer is one of the best reported thus far. And a phase noise of the 2nd harmonic was obtained -90.23 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset. The active sub-harmonic mixer also ensure a high degree of isolations, which are -35.8 dB from LO-to-IF and -40.5 dB from LO-to-RF, respectively, at a LO frequency of 17.5 GHz.

A second harmonic millimeter wave oscillator utilizing sub-harmonic injection-synchronization is presented. A 8.7GHz oscillator with MES-FET is designed, and is driven as a harmonic output oscillator at 17.4GHz by means of sub-harmonic injection-synchronization. The oscillator operates as a multiplier as well as a oscillator in this scheme. Adopting this method, a high sable, high frequency millimeter wave source is obtainable even though self-oscillating frequency of an oscillator is relatively low. The range of injection-synchronization is about 26MHz, and is proportional to the input sub-harmonic power. The spectrum analysis of the 2nd harmonic output frequency shows remarkably decreased the phase noise level.

The PDP(Plasma Display Panel) barrier rib material on the glass substrate was patterned for fabrication of the PDP cell using Nd:YAG laser(1064 nm) which can generate the second(532 nm) and forth(266 nm) harmonic wave by HGM(harmonic generation modules). At a scan speed of 20 ${\mu}m/s$ with the second harmonic wave(532 nm) of Nd:YAG laser, the etching threshold laser fluence of the PDP material was 6.5 $mJ/cm^2$ and a sample(thickness = 180 ${\mu}m$) on the glass substrate was removed clearly at a laser fluence of 19.5 $mJ/cm^2$. In order to increase the throughput of the fabrication we divided a single-beam into multi-beams by using a metal mask between the sample and the focusing lens. As a result, 10 lines of PDP cell were formed by one laser beam scanning at a scan speed of 200 ${\mu}m/s$ and a laser fluence of 2.86 $J/cm^2$.

The goal of this study is to introduce the theoretical background of acoustic nonlinearity in surface wave and to verify its characteristics by experiments. It has been known by theory that the nonlinear parameter of surface wave is proportional to the ratio of $2^{nd}$ harmonic amplitude and the power of primary component in the propagated surface wave, as like as in bulk waves. In this paper, in order to verify this characteristics we constructed a measurement system using contact angle beam transducers and measured the nonlinear parameter of surface wave in an Aluminum 6061 alloy block specimen while changing the distance of wave propagation and the input amplitude. We also considered the effect of frequency-dependent attenuation to the measurement of nonlinear parameter. Results showed good agreement with the theoretical expectation that the nonlinear parameter should be independent on the input amplitude and linearly dependent on the input amplitude and the $2^{nd}$ harmonic amplitude is linearly dependant on the propagation distance.

This paper deals with a millimeter wave source which is utilizing sub-harmonic injection-synchronization technique. A 8.7GHz oscillator with MES-FET is fabricated, and is driven as a harmonic output oscillator at 17.4GHz by means of sub-harmonic injection-synchronization. The oscillator operates as a multiplier as well as oscillator in this system. Adopting this technique, we can obtain a high stable, high frequency millimeter wave source even though self-oscillating frequency of an oscillator is relatively low. In the experiments, the range of injection-synchronization is about 26MHz and is proportional to the input sub-harmonic power. From the spectrum analysis of the 2nd harmonic output. we blow that the phase noise of the harmonic oscillator is remarkably decreased.

In this paper, We designed the millimeter wave power amplifier employing PBG. The amplifier has the bandwidth from 24.6 GHz to 24.75 GHz. For improvement of the Linearity and the PAE of the amplifier, PBG was designed to suppress the 2nd harmonic of the Amplifer. The Proposed PBG have smaller area and better rejection characteristic than conventional PBG structure. The fabricated PBG shows 35 dB or more of rejection characteristic at the 2nd harmonic band of the amplifier. The amplifier has balanced structure having lange coupler which means better input$.$output return loss and higher output power.

The non-destructive method using ultrasonic waves has been applied in many studies due to its low damage to the structure and its simple evaluation method and high precision. On the other hand, if the concrete is subjected to a high-temperature, the mechanical properties may be deteriorated due to the micro-crack network and the damage may be severe depending on the strength of the concrete. Therefore, this study attempts to evaluate the fundamental wave behavior of different strength ranges using the ultrasonic non-destructive method for concrete that has been subjected to high-temperature. As a result, the relative power of the fundamental wave was decreased as temperature increase. And it was confirmed that the 2nd and 3rd harmonics were generated at 110 MPa. However, to check the 2nd, 3rd harmonics 110 MPa or less, there is a need for further research considering the ultrasonic output, the output of the sender and receiver, and the appropriate frequency accordingly.
