  • A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for AgInS₂ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films. AgInS₂ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy(HWE)system. The source and substrate temperatures were 680℃ and 410℃, respectively. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of AgInS₂ single crystal thin film mea-sured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are 9.35×10/sup 16/㎤ and 294㎠/V·s at 293K respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the AgInS₂ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation , E/sub g/(T)=2.1365eV-(9.89×10/sup-3/eV/K/)T²(T+2930K). The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the AgInS₂ have been estimated to be 0.1541eV and 0.0129 eV, respectively, by means of the photocur-rent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the Δso definitely exists in the Γ/sub 5/ states of the valence band of the AgInS₂ /GaAs epilayer. The three photo-current peaks ovserved at 10K are ascribed to the A₁-, B-₁and C₁-exction peaks for n=1.

  • This study investigates the reliability of DSRC-based traffic information system on the typical urban arterial with the minimum sample size method. VISSIM has been employed to calculate the required sample size. After comparing the number of hi-pass vehicles recorded from DSRC and the required sample size, this study found that the interrupted traffic state tends to generate more outliers than the uninterrupted one, the lack of the number of vehicles completely passing links with multiple driveways makes it difficult to estimate the reliable traffic information, the traffic information during peak hour is relatively more reliable than that during off-peak hour, and the reliability of DSRC-based traffic information system depends on the significance level in calculating the sample size. The driveway density and traffic signal operation due to the individual link length significantly affects the required sample size, resulting in determining the reliability of the DSRC-based traffic information system.

  • In the four swamps of Jjokjibeol, Mokpo, Upo and Sajipo in the Upo wetland, the nitrogen nutrients, phosphorus nutrients and chl-$\alpha$ had been observed during the period from April 2005 to December 2009 on monthly basis. Based on the results, the fluctuations of trophic state in the Upo wetland were estimated. Measurements of the nitrogen nutrients such as $NO_3$-N, $NH_3$-N and T-N showed to be generally decreased in comparison with those in the precent studies. Yet the T-N was still considerably higher than the general concentration level of eutrophication and algal blooming. $PO_4$-P and T-P showed to have reduced considerably in comparison to precedent studies. However, T-P also turned out to be dissolved over the nutrient standard. Nitrogen nutrients and phosphorus nutrients were the lowest in Jjokjibeol in the Upo wetland. The chl-$\alpha$ concentrations were the highest at summer periods in Jjokjibeol and Mokpo. However, the highest at non-summer periods in Upo and Sajipo. Among the four swamps, Upo had the highest density on average of chl-$\alpha$, and Mokpo the lowest. Through TRIX (Trophic Index) analysis evaluating trophic state of the Upo wetland, all four swamps were estimated of poor water quality (eutrophication).

  • The microstructure and electrical properties of ZNR that W $O_3$ is added in the range 0.5~4.0mol%, were investigated. The major part of W $O_3$ were segregated at the nodal point and W-rich phase was formed. Three crystalline phases, such as W-rich phase (W $O_3$), Bi-rich phase (B $i_2$W $O_{6}$ ), and spinel phase (Z $n_{2.33}$S $b_{0.67}$ $O_4$) were confirmed to be co-existed at the nodal point The average grain size increased in the range 15.5~29.9$\mu\textrm{m}$ with increasing W $O_3$ additive content. Consequently. W $O_3$ acted as a promotion additive of grain growth. As the W $O_3$ additive content increases. the varistor voltage and the nonlinear exponent decreased in the range 186.82~35.87V/mm and 20.90~3.34, respectively, and the leakage current increased in the range of 22.39~83.01 uh. With increasing W $O_3$ additive content, the barrier height and the density of interface states decreased in the range 1.93~0.43eV and (4.38~1.22)$\times$10$^{12}$ $\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. W $O_3$ acted as an acceptor additive due to the donor concentration increasing in the range (1.06~0.38)$\times$10$^{18}$ /㎤with increasing W $O_3$ additive content.t.t.

  • Pd has the highest magnetic susceptibility among single element metals and often shows ferromagnetism under some special environments. In this paper, we report magnetism of 5- and 9-monolayers (ML) calculated by using full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. Exchange-correlation interaction is taken into account in local density approximation (LDA) and generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and calculational results in LDA and GGA are compared with each other. It is found that calculations by LDA are more reliable compared to those by GGA because LDA prediction of paramagnetism of bulk Pd is consistent with experiments, whereas GGA predicts wrongly ferromagnetim of bulk Pd. Calculational results in LDA on a 5-ML Pd(111) thin film shows a ferromagnetic ground state unlike a paramagnetic ground state of bulk Pd. The center Pd layer of the 5-ML Pd(111) thin film has the largest magnetic moment ($0.273{\mu}_B$) among the layers and |m| = 1 orbital states play a dominant role in stabilizing the ferromagnetism of the 5-ML Pd(111) thin film. A 9-ML Pd(111) thin film in a ferromagnetic state has almost the same total energy as in a paramagnetic state. Since the magnetization of the 9-ML Pd(111) thin film is stable, the ferromagnetic state may be meta-stable.

  • The market trends of automatic meter reading associated with smart water meters were investigated. Also, recent developments and field applications of key technology for automatic meter reading associated with smart water meters were analyzed. Smart water meters have been manufactured mostly in United States and Europe and have been expanded their business to Asia. Integrated water management system combining with the additional functions such as real-time consumption metering, cost notification, water conservation, leak detection, water quality monitoring, and flow control have been operated in automatic meter reading. Both water quality and quantity data measured from smart water meters and sensors were transferred to data concentration units through neighborhood area network, and then were transferred to integrated server through wide area network. The data transfer methods were determined by comprehensively considering urban scale, density of smart water meters, power supply and network topologies. Common data collection methods such as fixed network to data concentation units, vehicles drive by, people walk by, and drone fly by have been applied. The automatic meter reading associated with smart water meters are spread throughout the world, and both water and energy savings result in saving the money and reducing the greenhouse gases emission.

  • This study investigates the effects of economic factors and forest environments on rural residential area development in seven north central states of the U.S. by focusing on the relative importance of not only economic factors but also forest environments by forest type as core drivers of residential development. An empirical model of locations and magnitudes of population changes since 1950 in the north central region is first constructed, and then a panel model with fixed effects for counties is used to explain population growth by age group over time at the county level. Then a set of three equations is estimated for three major age groups, and a cross-sectional model is estimated for the last time period that regresses county-level environmental amenity variables on fixed effects coefficients for counties. Finally, an equation explaining changes in rural housing density is estimated. The results imply that immigrant age is a key factor influencing the choice of the place of residence and that the effects of environmental amenity factors on population growth and subsequent housing development in a county vary according to the age group.

  • Using N_ Ch silicon gate technology . the capacitors and transistors with various dimenssion were fabricated. Although the applied process was somewhat standard the conditions of ion implantation for the gate were varied by changing the implant energies from 30keV to 60keV for B and from 100 keV to 175keV for P . The doses of the implant also changed from 3 $\times$ 10 /$\textrm{cm}^2$ to 5 $\times$ 10 /$\textrm{cm}^2$ for B and from 4$\times$ 10 /$\textrm{cm}^2$ to 7 $\times$ 10 /$\textrm{cm}^2$ for P . The D. C. parameters such as threshold voltage. substrate doping level, the degree of inversion, capacitance. flat band voltage, depletion layer width, gate oxide thickless, surface states, motile charge density, electron mobility. leakage current were evaluated and also compared with the corresponing theoretical values and / or good numbers for application. The threshold voltages measured using curve tracer and C-V plot gave good agreements with the values calculated from SUPREM II which has been developed by Stanford University process group. The threshold vol tapes with back gate bias were used to calculate the change of the substrate doping level. The measured subthreshold slope enabled the prediction of the degree of inversion The D. C. testing results suggest the realized capacitors and transistors are suited for the memory applications.

  • In fermentations with a 4-liter stirred tank bioreactor, a better than two-fold enhancement of the gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient$(k_La)$ in the celite-immobilized fungal cultures of Tolypocladium in flatum over the parallel conventional free-cell was observed at identical biomass concentrations, despite the higher specific oxygen uptake rate of the immobilized fungi during exponential growth. As a result oxygen sufficient conditions, i. e., dissolve oxygen(D.O.) concentrations exceeding 75% air saturation, could be maintained throughout exponential growth period of the immobilized culture, in contrast to the suspended fungal culture, whose D.O. levels fell below 50% air saturation. A linear monotonic dependence of $k_La$ upon impeller agitaion rate was found for both immobilized and conventional cultivation modes over a range of 250 to 550rpm, the slope being a function of biomass concentration for the free but not for the immobilized cell system In contrasts oxygen transfer rate was a much weaker function of aeration rate up to about 2.5 vvm for both culture configurations. Above this level, aeration rate had no further effect on the mass transfer. In addition, the immobilized cultures sustained good morphological and physiological states, leading to almost two times higher cyclosporln A (CyA) productivity overt the parallel free cell system. These experiments suggest that the celite-immobilized fungal system in a stirred tank reactor has considerable promise for scaling up cyclosporin A production in terms of high-density cultivation.
