In this paper, high efficiency power amplifier is implemented with high gain amplifier. Two-stage amplifier using adaptive bias control circuit improve efficiency at low input power. Fixed bias circuit and adaptive bias circuit both have about 76 % efficiency at maximum power level. However amplifier using an adaptive bias control circuit has 70 % at 6 dBm input power level when the amplifier using fixed bias circuit has 50%. The proposed power amplifier using the adaptive bias control circuit can have high efficiency at lower power level.

A high power and high gain Doherty amplifier is designed by using embedded driver amplifiers in the final stage. The operational characteristics of a two-stage Doherty amplifier are analyzed, as a function of the two-stage peaking amplifier gate biases. The driver stages and final output stages are implemented using two single-ended MRF21045s and a single push-pull packaged MRF5P21180, respectively. This two-stage Doherty amplifier demonstrated 27 dB gain with a PAE of 23 % at 15 W average output power.

This work presents a method used for designing a broadband class-E power amplifier that combines the two techniques of a nonlinear shunt capacitance and a low quality factor of a series resonator. The nonlinear shunt capacitance theory accurately extracts the value of class-E components. In addition, the quality factor of the series resonator was considered to obtain a wide bandwidth for the power amplifiers. The purpose of using this method was to produce a simple topology and a high efficiency, which are two outstanding features of a class-E power amplifier. The experimental results show that a design was created using from a 130 to 180 MHz frequency with a bandwidth of 32% and a peak measured power added efficiency of 84.8%. This prototype uses an MRF282SR1 MOSFET transistor at a 3-W output power level. Furthermore, a summary of the experimental results compared with other high-efficiency articles is provided to validate the advantages of this method.

In this paper, we described the design and test results of a high output power amplifier MMIC developed by using 0.5um power pHEMT processes on a 6-inch GaAs wafer for the X-band T/R module application. In the MMIC design, we have used a simple on-chip gate active bias technology to compensate the threshold-voltage variation of pHEMT during the fabrication process and 16-to-1 power combining method to achieve the output power over 10watt. The fabricated chip has an output power over 12watts and maximum PAE of 32% over the frequency range of fo +/-750MHz.

This paper proposes the adaptive class-E power amplifier with maintaining high power added efficiency (PAE) in 400MHz range. This amplifier is used a microprocessor to adapt a resonator circuits and to maintain high efficiency in case of input frequency variation. To validate the adaptive amplifier operation, which is a 450MHz operating frequency and a 100MHz bandwidth, the class E amplifier is implemented. As a result, the adaptive amplifier is maintained above 60% efficiency and has a 74.8% maximum efficiency.

The Purpose of this study was to establish the basic data on the mechanical properties of PCM in the high temperature range. To this end, an experiment was conducted on the characteristics of the residual compressive strength by temperature (100, 200, 400 and $600^{\circ}C$) with a fixed temperature heating. An after heating test was performed to investigate the properties after fire damage. The result showed that the residual compressive strength of PCM had a tendency to decrease, regardless of the type of polymer. It was also found that when the contents were low, the residual compressive strength started to greatly decrease from the high temperature range of $400^{\circ}C$, and that the specimen containing PAE showed a steeper slope than the specimen containing EVA. However, since little studies have been conducted on the mechanical properties of PCM with the high temperature, it is considered that, in addition to this study, basic studies must be preceded, including studies on the repairing methods.

Spectral behaviors of cationic dye, crystal violet(CV), in aqueous solution and with varying concentrations of Triton X-100(TX-100), sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and cetyl trimethyl amonium bromide(CTAB) were studied. The characteristic changes of the absorption spectra observed in the dye-SDS interacting systems with the SDS concentration are analyzed. The behaviors of both a- and J-bands of the each componet dye suggest that the following four sequential steps are occurring : the formation of dye-SDS complex, the stacking of the dye molecules arising from the association of the dye-SDS complex, breaking of the dye stacking due to the formation of micelles, redistribution of the dye molecules in the surface of micelles at high SDS concentration.

Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is an inducible enzyme that catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in the oxidative degradation of free heme into ferrous iron, carbon monoxide (CO), and biliverdin (BV), the latter being subsequently converted into bilirubin (BR). HO-1, once expressed during inflammation, forms high concentrations of its enzymatic by-products that can influence various biological events, and this expression is proven to be associated with the resolution of inflammation. The degradation of heme by HO-1 itself, the signaling actions of CO, the antioxidant properties of BV/BR, and the sequestration of ferrous iron by ferritin all concertedly contribute to the anti-inflammatory effects of HO-1. This review focuses on the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of HO-1 actions and its roles in inflammatory diseases.

무선 통신을 위한 전력 증폭기를 0.25$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS 공정으로 구현하였다. 전력 효율을 증가시키기 위하여 class-E 구조를 사용하여 soft-switching 특성을 활용하였다. Class-E 부하 회로의 DC-feed 인덕터는 유한한 값을 갖도록 하여 RF-choke을 사용하는 경우에 비해 동일한 전력과 공급 전압에 대해 필요로 하는 부하 저항의 크기를 증가시킴으로써 전력 효율을 더욱 증가시킬 수 있었다. 또한 common-gate switching 방법을 사용하여 기존의 switching 방법에 비해 허용되는 공급 전압의 크기를 두배 정도 증가시킬 수 있도록 하였다. 이러한 기법을 사용함으로써 900MHz의 주파수에서 공급 전압이 1.8V일 때 트랜지스터에 아무런 전압 stress를 가하지 않고 0.9W의 전력을 41%의 효율(power added efficiency, PAE)을 가지면서 50Ω 부하에 전달함을 확인하였다.
