  • In this paper, a DC smoothing filterless soft switching pulse modulated high frequency AC power conversion circuit connected to utility. frequency AC power source is proposed for consumer induction heating hot water producer, steamer and super heated steamer. The operating principle of DC link filterless utility frequency AC-high frequency AC (HF AC) power conversion circuit defined as high frequency cycloinverter is described, which can operate under a principle of ZVS/AVT and power regulation based on alternate asymmetrical PWM in synchronization with the utility frequency single phase AC positive or negative half wave voltage. The dual mode modulation control scheme based on high frequency PWM and commercial frequency AC voltage PDM for the proposed high frequency cycloinverter are discussed to enlarge its soft switching commutation operating range for wide HF AC power regulation. This high frequency cycloinverter is developed for high frequency IH Dual Packs Heater (DPH) type boiler used in consumer and industrial fluid pipeline systems. Based on the experiment and simulation results, this high frequency cycloinverter is proved to be suitable for the consumer use IH-DPH boiler and hot water producers. The cycloinverter power regulation and power conversion efficiency characteristics are evaluated and discussed.

  • A suspended membrane micro fluidic heat flux sensor that is able to measure the heat flow rate was designed and fabricated by a complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor-compatible process. The combination of a thirty-junction gold and nickel thermoelectric sensor with an ultralow noise preamplifier, low pass filter, and lock-in amp has enabled the resolution of 50 nW power and provides the sensitivity of $11.4\;mV/{\mu}W$. The heater modulation method was used to eliminate low frequency noises from sensor output. It is measured with various heat flux fluid of DI-water to test as micro fluidic application. In order to estimate the heat generation of samples from the output measurement of a micro fluidic heat-flux sensor, a methodology for modeling and simulating electro-thermal behavior in the micro fluidic heat-flux sensor with integrated electronic circuit is presented and validated. The electro-thermal model was constructed by using system dynamics, particularly the bond graph. The electro-thermal system model in which the thermal and the electrical domain are coupled expresses the heat generation of samples converts thermal input to electrical output. The proposed electro-thermal system model shows good agreement with measured output voltage response in transient state and steady-state.

  • 일반적으로 sputtering 방식을 이용한 박막 증착 방법은 장치가 간단하고 고품질의 박막이나 균일한 박막을 만들 수 있는 장점이 있어 널리 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 sputtering 방식에 Modulation technology를 적용하고자 한다. Modulation technology를 이용하여 전원의 pulse on 시에는 일반적인 sputter 방식으로 기판에 박막을 증착하고 pulse off 시에는 양의 전압을 인가하여 이온빔을 발생시킨 후 기판에 입사시키는 방식을 적용하여 박막 형성의 특성을 향상시키고자한다. 이는 고온의 heater 및 이온빔이나 레이저, 플라즈마 소스 등의 추가적인 에너지원의 장치가 필요 없이 고품질의 박막의 특성을 향상시키는 기대 효과가 있다. Modulated Sputtering System (MSS)에 인가되는 전압과 전류의 특성을 관찰하였으며 MSS에 인가하는 전압과 frequency, 그리고 duty cycle 변화에 따른 이온 에너지 분포를 에너지 분석기를 통해 측정하였다. 또한 Langmuir probe를 이용한 afterglow plasma 상태에서의 이온전류를 측정하였다. 그리고, MSS 이용하여 Ti 박막을 증착하였으며 박막의 특성을 분석하기 위하여 a-step, SEM, XRD, AFM을 이용하여 두께, 결정성장면, 표면 거칠기를 측정하였다. 측정 결과 기판에 입사되는 양이온의 에너지가 증가함에 따라 (002) 결정면 방향에서 (100) 결정면 방향으로 증착되고 표면 거칠기가 낮아짐을 측정하였다. 또한 Graphite 타겟을 이용한 carbon 박막을 증착하였으며 박막의 특성을 분석하기 위하여 Raman을 이용한 분석 결과 양이온의 에너지가 증가함에 따라 박막내의 sp3 함유량이 변화함을 측정하였다.

  • We report an electroabsorption modulator (EAM)-integrated distributed Bragg reflector laser diode (DBR-LD) capable of supporting a high data rate and a wide wavelength tuning. The DBR-LD contains two tuning elements, plasma and heater tunings, both of which are implemented in the DBR section, which have blue-shift and red-shift in the Bragg wavelength through a current injection, respectively. The light created from the DBR-LD is intensity-modulated through the EAM voltage, which is integrated monolithically with the DBRLD using a butt-joint coupling method. The fabricated chip shows a threshold current of approximately 8 mA, tuning range of greater than 30 nm, and static extinction ratio of higher than 20 dB while maintaining a side mode suppression ratio of greater than 40 dB under a window of 1550 nm. To evaluate its modulation properties, the chip was bonded onto a mount including a radiofrequency line and a load resistor showing clear eye openings at data rates of 25 Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero and 50 Gb/s pulse amplitude modulation 4-level, respectively.

  • In order to investigate the cooling and heating characteristics of a variable-capacity system A/C applying a digital scroll compressor, the cooling and heating capacities and COP are measured by the psychrometric calorimeter. The capacity of the system is controlled by the digital scroll compressor, which is operated by controling PWM valve and the loading vs. unloading time. In the case of unloading compared that of loading, the consumption power of the compressor is about 11% and the capacity variation of the system A/C is within about 1%. When the system A/C is operated under the cooling and heating standard conditions, COP is nearly uniform but cooling capacity and heating capacity increase at minimum, rated and maximum modes. The system A/C applying the digital scroll compressor is effective for the range with high load or the width of large load variation. When the auxiliary heater is on, at the cold region, the system A/C produces the excellent heating capacity.
