The effect of substrate rotation speed on the phase forming behavior and microstructural variation of 8 wt% yttria ($Y_2O_3$) stabilized $ZrO_2$ (8YSZ) coatings as a thermal barrier coating has been investigated. 8YSZ coatings with $100{\sim}200{\mu}m$ thickness were deposited by electron beam-physical vapor deposition onto a super alloy (Ni-Cr-Co-Al) substrate with a bond coating (NiCo-CrAlY). The width of the columnar grains of the 8YSZ coatings increased with increasing substrate rotation speed from 1 to 30 rpm at a substrate temperature range of $900{\sim}950^{\circ}C$. In spite of the different growth behaviors of coatings with different substrate rotation speeds, the phases of each coating were not changed remarkably. Even after post heat treatments with various conditions of the coated specimens fabricated at 20 rpm, only a change of color was noticeable, without any remarkable change in the phase or microstructure.

We report relative proper motion measurements of $H_{2}O$ masers in massive star-forming region W51 Main, based on data sets of VLBI observations for $H_{2}O$ masers at 22 GHz with Japanese VERA telescopes from 2003 to 2006. Data reductions and single-beam imaging analysis are to measure internal kinematics of maser spots and eventually to estimate the three-dimensional kinematics of $H_{2}O$ masers in W51 Main. Average space motions and proper motion measurements of $H_{2}O$ masers are given both graphical and in table formats. We find in this study that W51 Main appears to be associated with hyper-compact H II region with multiple massive proto-stars whose spectral types are of late O.

This paper describes characteristics of the single-balanced low IF resistive FET mixer for the digital beam forming(DBF) receiver. This DBF receiver based on the direct conversion method is designed with Low IF I and Q channel. A radio frequency(RF), a local oscillator(LO) and an intermediate frequency(IF) considered in this research are 1950 MHz, 1940 MHz and 10 MHz, respectively. Super low noise HJ FET of NE3210S01 is considered in design. The measured results of the proposed mixer are observed IF output power of -22.8 dBm without spurious signal at 10 MHz, conversion loss of -12.8 dB, isolation characteristics of -20 dB below, 1 dB gain compression point(PldB) of -3.9 dBm, input third order intercept point(IIP3) of 20 dBm, output third order intercept point(OIP3) of 4 dBm and dynamic range of 30 dBm. The proposed mixer has 1.0 dB higher IIP3 than previously published single-balanced resistive and GaAs FET mixers, and has 3.0 dB higher IIP3 and 4.3 dB higher PldB than CMOS mixers. This mixer was fabricated on 0.7874 mm thick microstrip $substrate(\varepsilon_r=2.5)$ and the total size is $123.1\;mm\times107.6\;mm$.

간섭신호가 광대역이거나 빠르게 기동할 경우 기존의 협대역 적응 빔형성(NABF: Narrowband Adaptive Beam-forming)기법의 성능이 크게 저하되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 간섭신호가 빠르게 기동할 경우 추정된 빔패턴의 널(null)을 벗어나게 되고 협대역을 가정하여 얻어진 빔패턴의 널은 광대역 신호일 경우 이를 효과적으로 제거할 수 없기 때문이다. 이러한 환경에서 견실한 성능을 얻기 위해 NABF 기법에 미분제한조건을 주어 간섭신호 방향의 널 폭을 넓히는 기법이 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 광대역의 기동하는 간섭신호에 보다 견실하게 대처하기 위해 광대역 적응 빔형성 (WABF: Wideband Adaptive Beamforming)기법에 미분제한 조건을 적용하였다. 그리고 빠르게 기동하는 광대역 간섭신호가 존재하는 환경에서 모의실험을 수행하여 제안한 기법과 기존의 NABF기법 성능을 비교한다.

The time synchronization of each sub-unit of a pulsed generator is important to generate an output high-power radio frequency (RF) signal. To obtain the time synchronization between an input RF signal fed by an external source and an electron beam produced by an electric pulse generator, the influence of different charging voltages on a delay and a rise time of the output pulse waveform in the electric pulse generator should be carefully considered. This paper aims to study the timing characteristics of the delay and the rise time as a function of different charging voltages with a peak value of less than -35 kV in the high-voltage pulse generator, including a trigger generator (TG) and a pulse-forming line (PFL). The simulation has been carried out to estimate characteristics in the time domain, in addition to their output high-voltage amplitude. Experimental results compared with those obtained by simulation indicate that the delay of the output pulses of the TG and PFL, which are made by controlling the external triggering signal with respect to different charging voltages, is getting longer as the charging voltage is increasing, and their rise times are inversely proportional to the amplitude of the charging voltage.

In this paper, we propose a wireless video transmission scheme, providing medium and long range communication in the 2.4GHz band with beamforming. With this scheme, it is shown that the transmission rate of 32Mbps and received signal power of -77dBm is achieved with 4 antennas of 5dBi and 16dBm transmit power at each antenna connection for the distance of 3.6km. The scheme also provides transmission distance of 20km for 10~12Mbps with the 4 omni-directional antennas of 5dBi.

The resistive switching behaviors of Pt nanodisk on Nb-doped SrTiO3 single-crystal have been studied with conductive atomic force microscopy in ultra-high vacuum. The nanometer sizes of Pt disks were formed by using self-assembled patterns of silica nanospheres on Nb-doped SrTiO3 single-crystal semiconductor film using the Langmuir-Blodgett, followed by the metal deposition with e-beam evaporation. The conductance images shows the spatial mapping of the current flowing from the TiN coated AFM probe to Pt nanodisk surface on Nb：STO single-crystal substrate, that was simultaneously obtained with topography. The bipolar resistive switching behaviors of Pt nanodisk on Nb：STO single-crystal junctions was observed. By measuring the current-voltage spectroscopy after the forming process, we found that switching behavior depends on the charging and discharging of interface trap state that exhibit the high resistive state (HRS) and low resistive state (LRS), respectively. The results suggest that the bipolar resistive switching of Pt/Nb:STO single-crystal junctions can be performed without the electrochemical redox reaction between tip and sample with the potential application of nanometer scale resistive switching devices.

Aligning a cathode tip at the center of a gate hole is important in gated filed emission devices. We have fabricated a silicon field emitter using a following process so that a cathode and a gate hole are automatically aligned . After forming silicon tips on a silicon wafer, the wafer was covered with the $SiO_2$, gate metal, and photoresistive(PR) films. Because of the viscosity of the PR films, a spot where cathode tips were located protruded above the surface. By ashing the surface of the PR film, the gate metal above the tip apex was exposed when other area was still covered with the PR film. The exposed gate metal and subsequenlty the $SiO_2$ layer were selectively etched. The result produced a field emitter in which the gate film was in volcano shape and the cathode tip was located at the center of the gate hole. Computer simulation showed that the volcano shape and the cathode tip was located at the center of the gat hole. Computer simulation showed that the volcano shape emitter higher current and the electron beam which was focused better than the emitter for which the gate film was flat.

This paper derives an approximate expression for the output SINR(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio) of Applebaum type adaptive array under the scenario of the interferer's proximity to the desired signal. The approximation is made in terms of array geometry, the arrival direction of desired signal and that of an interfering signal. An interferer in the close proximity of target signal is shown to drastically impair the away performance. An approximate expression for interferer arrival direction which results in a predetermined performance loss is also obtained in terms of array configurations. Proposed approximation agrees with the computer calculated performance impairment when the two signals are apart by less than eight degrees. The allowable proximity of the interfering signal increases with the number of array elements.

Random beanforming exploits multiuser diversity gain in static channels. Since the gain is restricted by the user population, some extended works have been proposed. Among them, a codebook-based opportunistic beamforming technique forms multiple random beams with small pilots. The technique however has difficulty in designing beams flexibly by the channel statistics. In this paper, we propose a technique forming the multiple random beams by rotating codebooks. The proposed technique enables the flexible design of beams so that multiuser diversity and beam selection diversity are exploited simultaneously with small pilots robust to the channel statistics.
