In this paper we proposed a new source-drain structure for N-type MOSFET which can suppress the output resistance reduction of a device in saturation region due to soft break down leakage at high drain voltage when the gate is biased around relatively low voltage. When a device is generally used as a switch at high gate bias the current level is very important for the operation. but in electronic circuit like an amplifier we should mainly consider the output resistance for the stable voltage gain and the operation at low gate bias. Hence with T-SUPREM simulator we designed devices that operate at low gate bias and high gate bias respectively without a extra photo mask layer and ion-implantation steps. As a result the soft break down leakage due to impact ionization is reduced remarkably and the output resistance increases about 3 times in the device that operates at the low gate bias. Also it is expected that electronic circuit designers can easily design a circuit using the offered N-type MOSFET device with the better output resistance.

The charged particle type display is a kind of the reflectivity type display and shows an image by absorption and reflection of external light source, which has keep an image without additional electric power because of bistability. In this paper, we made a device whose cell gap is $56\;{\mu}m$ and also analyzed driving and memory characteristics by applied driving voltages. As a result, we found that the driving voltage and memory effect depend on q/m(charge to mass ratio) of charged particle. In this case of breakdown voltage, the devices showed degradation of reflectivity and memory effect due to irregular movement of overcharged particles. In addition, contrast ratio of the device varies with memory effect. Thus, we consider that device needs uniform q/m for improvement of electric and optical properties and memory effect.

Emission properties of the organic light-emitting diodes were investigated with the use of a hole-injection layer of copper(II)-phthalocyanine (CuPc). The manufactured device structure is indium-tin-oxide (ITO) (180 nm)/CuPc (0~50 nm)/N,N'-Bis(3-methylphenyl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine (TPD) (40 nm)/tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (III) ($Alq_3$) (60 nm)/Al(100 nm). We investigated the luminescence properties of $Alq_3$ which is affected by the CuPc hole-injection layer. Also, we studied the influence of light-emission properties in the structure of an ITO/CuPc/TPD/$Alq_3$/Al device depending on the several thicknesses of CuPc (0~50 nm) layer. As a result, it was found that the hole injection occurs smoothly in the device with 20 nm thick CuPc layer, and the properties become significantly worse in the device with a CuPc layer thickness higher than 40 nm. We studied the topography and external quantum efficiency depending on the layer thickness of CuPc. Also, we analyzed the electroluminescent characteristics in the low and high-voltage range.

Resource sharing is one of the main goals achieved by network virtualization technology to enhance network resource utilization and enable resource customization. Though resource sharing can improve network efficiency by accommodating various users in a network, limited infrastructure capacity is still a challenge to ultra-low latency service operators. In this paper, we propose an inter-slice resource borrowing schema based on the device-to-device (D2D) potentiality especially for ultra-low latency transmission in cellular networks. An extended and modified Kuhn-Munkres bipartite matching algorithm is developed to optimally achieve inter-slice resource borrowing. Simulation results show that, proper D2D user matching can be achieved, satisfying ultra-low latency (ULL) users' quality of service (QoS) requirements and resource utilization in various scenarios.

In this work, the surface of hydrophilic cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) was modified precisely by varying amounts of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to produce CNF-based particle surfactants. We found that a critical CTAB density was required to generate amphiphilic CTAB-grafted CNF (CNF-CTAB). Compared to pristine CNF, CNF-CTAB was highly efficient at stabilizing oil-in-water Pickering emulsions. To evaluate their effectiveness as particle surfactants, the surface coverage of oil-in-water emulsion droplets was determined by changing the CNF-CTAB concentration in the aqueous phase. Furthermore, styrene-in-water stabilized by CNF-CTAB surfactants was thermally polymerized to produce CNF-stabilized polystyrene (PS) particles, offering a great potential for various applications including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and petrochemicals.

The growth and the film characteristics of heteroepitaxial $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ films growth by the Rapid Thermal Chemical Vapor Deposition(RTCVD)method are described. For the growth of $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ heteroepitaxial layers, $SiH_4/GeH_4/H_2$gas mixtures are used. The growth conditions are varied to investigate their effects on the Si/Ge composition ratios, the interface abruptness and crystalline properties. The Si/Ge composition ratios are analyzed with the RBS and the SIMS techniques, and the interface abruptness are deduced from these data. The crystalline properties are analyzed from TEM pictures. The experimental data shows that the crystalline perfection is excellent at the growth temperature of as low as $650^{\circ}C$, and the composition ratios change linearly with $SiH_4/GeT_$$ gas mixing ratios in our experimental ranges. Boron doping experiments are also performed using 200 ppm $B_2H_6$ source gas. The doping profiles are measured with SIMS technique. The SIMS data shows that the doping abruptness can be controlled within about 200$\AA$/decade.

Background: This work presents the performance of a novel electronic brachytherapy (EBT) device and radiotherapy (RT) experiments on both skin cancer cells and animals using the device. Methods and materials: The performance of the EBT device was evaluated by measuring and analyzing the dosimetric characteristics of X-rays generated from the device. The apoptosis of skin cancer cells was analyzed using B16F10 melanoma cancer cells. Animal experiments were performed using C57BL/6 mice. Results: The X-ray characteristics of the EBT device satisfied the accepted tolerance level for RT. The results of the RT experiments on the skin cancer cells show that a significant apoptosis induction occurred after irradiation with 50 kVp X-rays generated from the EBT device. Furthermore, the results of the animal RT experiments demonstrate that the superficial X-rays significantly delay the tumor growth and that the tumor growth delay induced by irradiation with low-energy X-rays was almost the same as that induced by irradiation with a high-energy electron beam. Conclusions: The developed new EBT device has almost the same therapeutic effect on the skin cancer with a conventional linear accelerator. Consequently, the EBT device can be practically used for human skin cancer treatment in the near future.

We investigate micro-tip properties as Ni-Co plating and CMP processes for MEMS probe card and units. The micro-tip are fabricated by using Ni-Co plating machine, lapping machine, and chemo-mechanical polisher. In order to get high conductive and reliable micro-tip, we control Co contents and thickness by CMP speed. We have found that about 20-25% of Co contents are required and have to lapping speed of 30 rpm. Also, we investigate photolithography and Ni-Co plating processes conditions for the one-step and the three-step micro-tips.

Proton irradiation technology was used for improvement of switching characteristics of the PT-IGBT. Proton irradiation was carried out at 5.56 MeV energy with $1{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$ doze from the back side of the wafer. The I-V, breakdown voltage, and turn-off delay time of the device were analyzed and compared with those of un-irradiated device and e-beam irradiated device which was conventional method for minority carrier lifetime reduction. For proton irradiated device, the breakdown voltage and the on-state voltage were 733 V and 1.85 V which were originally 749 V and 1.25 V, respectively. The turn-off time has been reduced to 170 ns, which was originally $6{\mu}s$ for the un-irradiated device. The proton irradiated device was superior to e-beam irradiated device for the breakdown voltage and the on-state voltage which were 698 V and 1.95 V, respectively, nevertheless turn-off time of proton irradiated device was reduced to about 60 % compared to that of the e-beam irradiated device.

The piezoelectric properties of $0.65Pb(Zr_{1-x}Ti_x)O_3-0.35Pb(Zn_{1/6}Ni_{1/6}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ ($PZT_x-PZNN$) ceramics with $0.530{\leq}x{\leq}0.555$ were investigated for application to piezoelectric energy harvesters. Although a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) was found at approximately x = 0.545, the ceramic with the highest figure of merit (FOM) ($d_{33}{\times}g_{33}$) was observed at a composition of x = 0.540. Values of this figure of merit, $d_{33}{\times}g_{33}$, of $19.6pm^2/N$ and $20.2pm^2/N$ were obtained from $PZT_{0.540}-PZNN$ ceramics sintered at $920^{\circ}C$ and $950^{\circ}C$, respectively. A high output power of $937{\mu}W$ and a high power density of $3.3mW/cm^3$ were obtained from unimorph-type piezoelectric energy harvesters fabricated using $PZT_{0.540}-PZNN$ ceramic sintered at $920^{\circ}C$ for 4h.
