Purpose : This study was intended to evaluate the positional relationship between the hyoid bone and the mandible in patients with mandibular protrusion after mandibular set-back surgery by means of 3D-CT. Materials and methods : Preoperative(3 weeks before) and postoperative (6 weeks after) 3D-CT & cephalogram were taken on 32 patients(12 male, 20 female, mean age of 23.2) treated by bilateral sagittal split osteotomy with rigid fixation. The angular measurement on 3D-CT basilar view were deviation of Me & H, long axis angle of left & right cornu majus. The lineal measurement on 3D-CT basilar view were composed of intercondylar line and coordinates(x,y) of Me & H. The angular & lineal measurement of lateral cephalogram were composed of mandibular plane angle, SNA, SNB, ANB, FH-NA & FH-NB, and coordinates(x,y) of B, Pog, Me & H, PAS, Lpw, MPH and IAS. On the frontal cephalogram, deviation of Me were evaluated. Results : The mean mandibular set-back was 8.0mm horizontally and mandibular plane angle was slightly increased. The hyoid bone was displaced postero-inferiorly, the distance between MP(mandibular plane) and H(hyoid bone) was increased and the posterior airway space values (PAS, Lpw, IAS) were decreased. The coordinates Me(x,y), H(x,y) and deviation angle Me'& H' were revealed the strong positive correlation. Conclusion : The results revealed that the horizontal, vertical and transverse relationship of the mandibular and the hyoid bone movements were significantly correlated in patients performed mandibular set-back surgery.

This paper suggests the PIFA structure modified antenna in which short-circuit plate is located between planar element and ground plane, in order to solve the problem of narrow band of existing internal antenna, PIFA. It is also suggested that internal antenna has the perturbation in the patch to broaden the frequency bandwidth. It is possible that the antenna is installed into the mobile telephone with a low profile condition(h=0.015 λ) to use internally, and acquired desired bandwidth(5.2 %) through double resonance structure, remodeling the PIFA that is already well-known as an internal antenna. This paper investigated how characteristic is affected by the feeding point(Yf, Zf), short strip plate(Zs), short strip width(Ws), perturbation width(w), length(d), short plate height(h), dielectric($\varepsilon$$\_$r/) to be slim type antenna. It is compared with existing PIFA bandwidth, and is suggested pattern as the H.E plane. It is simulated using the Microwave Studio of the CST Inc. based on FIM(Finite Integration Method) method and analyzed antenna characteristic following the variation each parameters. The result proved the practical use of PIFA antenna by comparing the measured and simulated data of the antenna.

TF magnet structures are the main structural components in the KSTAR magnet systems to protect the superconducting coils from mechanical, electrical, and thermal loads. TF coil structure supports CS and PF coil system. The inter-coil structure contains adjustable shear keys and conical bolts to provide pre-loading in toroidal direction and to resist against in-plane and out-of-plane forces that are the most critical loads on the TF magnet system. The conical bolts and shear keys are specially designed to assemble easily and to provide a convenient accommodation for a good alignment. The connection plate that is one of the prototype fabrications had been manufactured to study adjustability of conical bolts and shear keys for assembly of TF coil structure. We could measure the misalignments at the keyways and conical holes with the misalignment measuring instrument.

This paper presents a novel method for radius measurement of fillet regions of polygonal models by using optimum onhogonal planes. The objective function for finding an optimum onhogonal plane is designed based on the orthogonality between the normal vectors of the faces in a filet region and the plane that is to be found. Direct search methods are employed to solve the defined optimization problem since no explicit derivatives of the object function can be calculated. Once an optimum orthogonal plane is obtained, the intersection between the onhogonal plane and the faces of interest is calculated, and necessary point data in the fillet region for measuring radii are extracted by some manipulation. Then, the radius of the fillet region in question is measured by least squares fitting of a circle to the extracted point data. The proposed radius measuring method could eliminate the burden of defining a plane for radius measurement, and automatically find a necessary optimum orthogonal plane. It has an advantage in that it can measure fillet radii without prior complicated segmentation of fillet regions and explicit information of neighboring surfaces. The proposed method is demonstrated trough some mea-surement examples.

We have investigated about compensation film to reduce the light leakage at an oblique angle in-plane switching mode. It is well known that uncompensated in-plane switching (US) and fringe field switching (FFS) liquid crystal displays (LCDs) have much better viewing angle than other modes owing to the in-plane rotation of the LC director. However, to accomplish optimal viewing angle characteristics in these devices, they must be compensated by one or more films. So, in this paper, we have studied how to reduce the light leakage with viewing angle using discotic film in dark state.

We have fabricated schottky barrier diode (SBDs) using polar (c-plane) and non polar (a-, m-plane) n-type 6H-SiC wafers. Ni/SiC ohmic contact was accomplished on the backside of the SiC wafers by thermal evaporation and annealed for 20minutes at $950^{\circ}C$ in mixture gas ($N_2$ 90% + $H_2$ balanced). The specific contact resistance was $3.6{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm^2$ after annealing at $950^{\circ}C$. The XRD results of the alloyed contact layer show that formation of $NiSi_2$ layer might be responsible for the ohmic contact. The active rectifying electrode was formed by the same thermal evaporation of Ni thin film on topside of the SiC wafers and annealed for 5 minutes at $500^{\circ}C$ in mixture gas ($N_2$ 90% + $H_2$ balanced). The electrical properties of SBDs have been characterized by means of I-V and C-V curves. The forward voltage drop is about 0.95 V, 0.8 V and 0.8 V for c-, a- and m-plane SiC SBDs respectively. The ideality factor (${\eta}$) of all SBDs have been calculated from log(I)-V plot. The values of ideality factor were 1.46, 1.46 and 1.61 for c-, a- and m-plane SiC SBDs, respectively. The schottky barrier height (SBH) of all SBDs have been calculated from C-V curve. The values of SBH were 1.37 eV, 1.09 eV and 1.02 eV for c-, a- and m-plane SiC SBDs, respectively.

In this paper, to reduce the resonant length of patch, microstrip patch antenna of linear polarization which is suppressed at two radiation edges is designed and fabricated at the frequency of 1.575 GHz. The result is like that the resonant length of patch is 45 mm and the length reduction effect is 43.8 % when it is compared with that(80 mm) of plane type. The gain is 4.4 dBd and -3 dB beamwidths are 112$^{\circ}$ and 66$^{\circ}$ in the E-plane and H-plane, respectively. Also, to reduce the size of patch, microstrip patch antennas those are suppressed at four radiating comers are designed and fabricated at the same frequency in the linear and circular polarization, respectively. For linear polarization, at the 1.2 of width/length(W/L) ratio, the patch area is 53 mm $\times$ 63.6 mm and the size reduction effect is 56.1 % when compared with that(80 mm $\times$ 96 mm) of plane type. The gain is 4.3 dBd and the -3 dB beamwidths are 120$^{\circ}$ and 78$^{\circ}$ in the E-plane and H-plane, respectively. For circular polarization, the patch size(54.2 mm $\times$ 61.5 mm) is reduced by 47.2 % than that(76 mm $\times$ 83 mm) of plane type. -3 dB beamwidth of horizontal polarization in the z-x plane and vortical polarization in the y-z plane are 108$^{\circ}$ and 93$^{\circ}$, respectively and this means the increasement in both planes by 52$^{\circ}$ and 27$^{\circ}$ than those of plane type. The maximum gain is 2.5 dBd in the horizontal polarization in the z-x plane. Axial ratio is 1.5 dB at 1.575 GHz and the 2 dB axial ratio bandwidth(ARBW) is 20 MHz(1.3 %).

In this paper, a circular dual mode horn with modified aperture is proposed to improve a E/H-plane radiation pattern symmetry of a conventional oversized circular dual mode horn. The proposed antenna consists of a feeding section, a mode generation section and a phase matching section which has aperture shape transition from circle to ellipse or rectangle to improve a E/H-plane radiation pattern symmetry. To compare the performances between the proposed antenna and the convenional circular dual mode horn, the conventional circular dual mode horn and the proposed circular dual mode horn with rectangular aperture are fabricated and researched at 15 GHz. The measured results show that the conventional circular dual mode horn has 3.394 dB difference while the proposed antenna has only 0.539 dB difference between E and H-plane radiation patterns within the -11 dB beamwidth($53^{\circ}$) which is required beamwidth of the feed horn for the maximum aperture efficiency where f/d ratio of reflector antenna is 1.
