In case of $K_{Imax}$ < $K_{Iscc}$, the corrosion fatigue of high strength steel in 0.1N $H_{2}$S $O_{4}$ solution and 3.5% salt water is as follows. 1. The fatigue life shortens in order of 3.5% salt water and 0.1N $H_{2}$S $o_{4}$ solution. 2. The fatigue crack growth rate in air is obtained as the following equation. (dc/dN)$_{atr}$=7.23*10$^{-6}$ (.DELTA. K)$^{2.23}$ 3. The corrosion fatigue crack growth rate in environment is divided into three regions, that is, First Region, Second Region and Third Region from the small cyclic stress intensity. 4. The formation rate of the active surface on metal is slower than the mechano-chemical reaction rate in First Region. The crack growth rate depends on time and the cyclic stress intensity and is expressed as the following equation. (dc/dN)$_{I}$=C(/DELTA. K)$^{\delta}$ 5. The formation rate of the active surface is faster than the mechano-chemical reaction rate in Second Region and the synergistic effect by stress and corrosion becomes slow. In case the fatigue load is large, we have the critical crack growth rate which is not related to the cyclic stress intensity. 6. The corrosion crack growth rate by the mechano-chemical reaction is the same in $H_{2}$S $O_{4}$ solution and salt water, so Hydrogen accelerates the crack growth. 7. The environment has no effect on the corrosion fatigue crack growth rate in Third Region. 8. In First Region and Second Region, dimple is observed on the fatigue fracture surface in 0.1N $H_{2}$S $O_{4}$ solution. 9. The striation is observed in any environment as in air in Third Region and its interval approximately coincide with the crack growth rate.ate.e.e.

In this paper, the double balance mixer(DBM) for Ku-band LNB using InGaP/GaAs HBT process is suggested for the characteristics of low DC power consumption, low noise figure, low intermodulation distortion and wide dynamic range. The 5 dB conversion gain, 14 dB NF, bandwidth 17.9 GHz and 50.34 dBc IMD are obtained under RF input power of -23 dBm, with bias condition as 3 V and 16 mA. The linearity of InGaP/GaAs HBT, the broad band input matching scheme and the optimization of bias point result in the low IMD, the broad bandwidth and the low power consumption characteristics.

As continued scaling becomes increasingly difficult, 3D integration has emerged as a viable solution to achieve higher bandwidths and good power efficiency. 3D integration can be defined as a technology involving the stacking of multiple processed wafers containing integrated circuits on top of each other with vertical interconnects between the wafers. This type of 3D structure can improve performance levels, enable the integration of devices with incompatible process flows, and reduce form factors. Through silicon vias (TSVs), which directly connect stacked structures die-to-die, are an enabling technology for future 3D integrated systems. TSVs filled with copper using an electro-plating method are investigated in this study. DC and pulses are used as a current source for the electro-plating process as a means of via filling. A TiN barrier and Ru seed layers are deposited by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) with thicknesses of 10 and 30 nm, respectively. All samples electroplated by the DC current showed defects, even with additives. However, the samples electroplated by the pulse current showed defect-free super-filled via structures. The optimized condition for defect-free bottom-up super-filling was established by adjusting the additive concentrations in the basic plating solution of copper sulfate. The optimized concentrations of JGB and SPS were found to be 10 and 20 ppm, respectively.

We have developed an optical video transmission device for HD-SDI signal transmission. The optical transmitter/receiver unit operates at DC 5 volt and small enough to be attaced near surveillance camera. They have internal voltage regulating circuits to supply 3.3V to other circuits inside the unit. The optical transmitter is composed of cable driver, laser diode driver, and laser diode. The optical receiver is composed of photodiode, limiting amp, and cable equalizer. The wavelength of the trasmitter was 1.3 um, and optical power was -5dBm, and the speed was 1.485Gbps. The receiver sensitivity was -23 dBm. We confirmed that the optical device can transmit HD-SDI video through 30 km optical fiber without any interruption.

In parallel operation of multiple power converter modules, equal power distribution among modules shall be made to improve the reliability of the system. In this paper, a novel droop method is proposed to present improved current distribution characteristics. In the proposed method, if the current in each module become greater than the current set-point value, the output voltage set-point is raised to improve the current distribution characteristics. Meanwhile, when the output voltage is to be managed within the tolerance range, the range of the usable control IC reference value ($v_{ref}$) will be reduced if the output voltage setting is always raised. Thus, in case the output voltage set-point among modules is reversed, the downward adjustment is introduced. The proposed method was experimentally validated with a 17.5V/500mA prototype of two boost converters operating in parallel.

At present, domestic small islands mainly supply electric power using diesel generators. However, diesel generators can cause instability of the power system due to slow response on power load fluctuation, and cause environmental problems due to the emission of carbon gas by using fossil fuels. In order to overcome this problem, this paper proposes a method to establish an optimal microgrid by introducing solar power, wind power, and energy storage device to Chujado Island, which is supplied with electric power through a diesel generator. The economical optimum capacity of each distributed power source is calculated by using HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Multiple Energy Resources) program and the proposed microgrid is validated by using PSCAD/EMTDC (Power Systems Computer Aided Design/ Electromagnetic Transients including DC) program which can analyze system stability.

This paper has designed a current mode class D power amplifier to increase the transmission efficiency of a 6.78 MHz wireless power transfer (WPT) transmitter and to ensure stable characteristics even when the transmitting and receiving coil intervals change. By reducing the loss due to the parasitic capacitor component of the transistor, which limits the theoretical efficiency of the linear amplifier, this research has improved the efficiency of the power amplifier. The circuit design simulator was used to design the high efficiency amplifier, and the power output and efficiency characteristics according to the load impedance change have been simulated and verified. In the simulation, 42.1 dBm output and 95% efficiency was designed at DC bias 30 V. The power amplifier was fabricated and showed 91% efficiency at the output of 42.1 dBm (16 W). The transmitting and receiving coils were fabricated for wireless power transfer of the drone, and the maximum power added efficiency was 88% and the output power was $42.1dBm{\pm}1.7dB$ according to the load change causing from the coil intervals.

We have investigated the electrical transport properties of polycrystalline tantalum nitride (TaN_x) films. Various compositions of tantalum (nitride) thin films have been deposited on SiO₂ substrates by reactive DC magnetron sputtering while changing the ratio of nitrogen partial pressure. The substrate temperature was maintained at 283 K during deposition. X-ray diffraction analyses indicated the presence of α-Ta and β-Ta phases in the Ta film deposited in pure argon atmosphere, while fcc-TaN_x phases appeared in the sputtering gas mixture of argon and nitrogen. The N/Ta atomic ratio in the film increased ranging from 0.36 to 1.07 for nitrogen partial pressure from 7 to 20.7%. The superconducting transition temperatures of the TaN_x thin films were measured to be greater than 3.86 K with a maximum of 5.34 K. The electrical resistivity of TaN_x thin film was in the range of 177-577 𝜇Ωcm and increased with an increase in nitrogen content. The upper critical filed at zero temperature for a TaN_0.87 thin film was estimated to exceed 11.3 T, while it showed the lowest T_c = 3.86 K among the measured superconducting TaN_x thin films. We try to explain the behavior of the increase of the residual resistivity and the upper critical field for TaN_x thin films with the nitrogen content by using the combined role of the intergrain Coulomb effect and disorder effect by grain boundaries.

In this paper, the characteristics of the inductor and capacitor, which are the basic components of the circuit, are constructed in a form that can be used in the LTCC multilayer. The inductors and capacitors used for the analysis were designed with rectangular spiral structures and MIM structures inside dielectrics with a dielectric constant of 7, respectively. The measured results were extracted from each element of the equivalent circuit proposed by the curve fitting method and verified the validity of the proposed equivalent circuit based on the extracted results. The analyzed inductor and capacitor were implemented in the form of library and proved its usefulness by applying to Elliptical type 5th LPF design. The LPF was measured through practical production, and as a result, the insertion loss in the passband DC ~ 3.7 GHz was up to 1.0 dB, the return loss was 19.2 dB, and the attenuation in the rejection band was 23.9 dB, which was close to the design goal.

The purpose of this study was evaluated physiological activity of processed sulfur with Cordyceps militaris mycelium. Effect of blood glucose levels and lipid metabolism on streptozotocin-induced Diabetic Rats. To evaluate of hypoglycemic effects in vivo, we examined blood glucose levels, serum lipid profile and hepatotoxicity of streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. Hypoglycemic effect of CM, CM+PSL and CM+PSH groups was significantly higher than DC groups. The activities of ALT, AST and ALP in CM+PSH group were lower than DC, PC groups. These results suggested that processed sulfur with Cordyceps militaris mycelium have activities of hypoglycemic effects.
