  • In this paper, a new three-port multidirectional DC-DC converter is proposed for integrating an energy storage system (ESS) to a bipolar DC microgrid (BPDCMG). The proposed converter provides a voltage-balancing function for the BPDCMG and adjusts the charge of the ESS. Thanks to the multi-functional operation of the proposed converter, the conversion stages of the system are reduced. In addition, the efficiency and weight of the system are improved. Therefore, this converter has a significant capability when it comes to use in portable BPDCMGs such as electric DC ships. The converter modes are analyzed and small-signal models of the converter in each of the independent modes are extracted. Finally, comprehensive simulation studies are carried out and a BPDCMG laboratory prototype is implemented in order to verify the performance of the proposed voltage balancer using the burst mode control scheme.

  • This paper presents simulations of the pancake in the simplified 3D microwave oven. The results were compared with experimental data. For the comparison we used infrared photography of the heated pancake and electric field distribution obtained by simulation. Finite Element Method (FEM) using edge element is employed for the simulation. For solving the large sparse system parallelled QMR method was used.

  • This paper proposes a fuzzy speed tracking controller and a fuzzy rotor angular acceleration observer for a surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) based on the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. The proposed observer-based controller is robust to load torque variations since it utilizes rotor angular acceleration information instead of the load torque value. Linear matrix inequality (LMI) sufficient conditions are given to compute the gain matrices of the speed tracking controller and the observer. In addition, it is mathematically verified that the proposed observer-based control system is asymptotically stable. Simulation and experimental results are presented to confirm that the proposed control algorithm assures a better transient behavior and less sensitivity under model parameter variations than the conventional PI control method.

  • Recently, International Telecommunication Union approved several methods for objective video quality measurements to be included in international standards. These methods are mainly developed to measure quality of digital video on professional CRT monitors. In this paper, we performed subjective tests in order to examine the applicability of the standard quality assessment methods for different display monitors such as common CRT, PDP, and LCD TV monitors as well as professional CRT monitors. Subjective testing on different display monitors shows that there exist relatively high correlations between the various display monitors, which indicates the standard quality assessment methods can be used on the display monitors under the given conditions of subjective duality assessment.

  • Bottom gate thin-film transistors were fabricated using solution processed IGZO channel layers with various gallium composition ratios that were annealed on a hot plate. Increasing the gallium ratio from 0.1 to 0.6 induced a threshold voltage shift in the electrical characteristics, whereas the molar ratio of In:Zn was fixed to 1:1. Among the devices, the IGZO-TFTs with gallium ratios of 0.4 and 0.5 exhibited suitable switching characteristics with low off-current and low SS values. The IGZO-TFTs prepared from IGZO films with a gallium ratio of 0.4 showed a mobility, on/off current ratio, threshold voltage, and subthreshold swing value of $0.1135cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, ${\sim}10^6$, 0.8 V, and 0.69 V/dec, respectively. IGZO-TFTs annealed at $300^{\circ}C$, $350^{\circ}C$, and $400^{\circ}C$ were also fabricated. Annealing at lower temperatures induced a positive shift in the threshold voltage and produced inferior electrical properties.

  • In this paper, This paper is based on the conventional ESD protection circuits SCR and LVTSCR. Also, the SCR-based ESD protection circuit, which is different from the conventional structure, is presented and tested for variations in the trigger voltage and holding voltage. Due to the insertion of additional N +, P + regions, the newly added SCR-based protection circuit have improved electrical characteristics. To discuss the electrical characteristics of the proposed circuit, Synopsys T-CAD simulation data was shown.

  • In this study, we carried out an investigation of the etch characteristics of TiO2 thin films and the selectivity of TiO2 to SiO2 in adaptive coupled C12/Ar plasma. The maximum etch rate of the TiO2 thin film was 136±5 nm/min at a gas mixing ratio of C12/Ar (75%:25%). The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis showed the efficient destruction of oxide bonds by the ion bombardment as well as the accumulation of low volatile reaction products on the etched surface.
