A new polymorph of tridymite, an incommensurately modulated phase (IC phase), has been identified. While the symmetry of the IC lattice is same as that of the Ll phase, the geometry of the IC lattice structure is same as the basis of the L3 structure with a different modulation (modulation vector q=0.22 $c*_{H}$;$\lambda$ 37 ). On the other hand, the characteristic curved diffuse diffration observed from the Ll atoms could occur even at room phase suggests that the dynamic disordering of atoms, especially oxygen atoms could occur even at room temperature. The phase transition of Ll to L3 by grinding is gradual but very conspicuous: LllongrightarrowL1+IClongrightarrowIC+L3longrightarrowL3. However, it is revealed that real transition processes of individual grains are directly related to the local stress fields and preexisting microstructures.

This paper introduces a phased-array single-channel transceiver beamformer IC built using 65nm CMOS technology, covering the 8-16 GHz range and targeting the X and Ku bands for radar and satellite communications. Each signal path in the IC features a low noise amplifier (LNA), power amplifier (PA), phase shifter (PS), and variable gain amplifier (VGA), which allow for phase and gain adjustments essential for beam steering and tapering control in typical beamforming systems. Test results show that the phase-compensated VGA offers a gain range of 15 dB with 0.25 dB increments and an RMS gain error of 0.27 dB. The active vector modulator phase shifter delivers a 360° phase range with 2.8125° steps and an RMS phase error of 3.5°.

This paper presents a single-phase energy measurement IC to measure electric power quantities. The entire IC includes two programmable gain amplifiers (PGAs), two ${\sum}{\Delta}$ modulators, a reference circuit, a low-dropout (LDO) regulator, a temperature sensor, a filter unit, a computation engine, a calibration control unit, registers, and an external interface block. The proposed energy measurement IC is fabricated with $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology and housed in a 32-pin quad-flat no-leads (QFN) package. It operates at a clock speed of 4,096 kHz and consumes 10 mW in 3.3 V supply.

Severe congestion is happening at urban freeway off-ramps in Seoul. Major causes of congestion at off-ramps are a shortage of capacity and inefficient signal operations at the downstream intersection at off-ramps. It is necessary to control congestion by improving design or operations in the downstream intersection. In this study, the authors analyzed the case of the Jungdong interchange that was improved for design in the downstream intersection. When a freeway and an arterial road cross, diamond interchanges are usually selected with a single-point urban interchange (SPUI) as an alternative. To compare the effectiveness of a diamond interchange with a SPUI, the authors applied these two configurations to the Jungdong interchange using a simulation. The result of the analysis shows that congestion at off-ramps in diamond interchanges can be reduced by improving signal operations such as the application of "4 phase with overlaps" and that diamond interchanges are more efficient than a SPUI with a frontage road. Efficient operation of the downstream intersection by these findings can minimize congestion of not only the downstream intersection but also the freeway mainline.

This paper presents a motor drive IC for automotive applications. The drive IC is dedicated to control and drive external MOSFETs which directly drive 3-phase motor with a high current. In case of driving high-side power switches, the bootstrap topology is widely used. however, it requires three bootstrap diode and three capacitor respectively. And it needs a minimum charging time to maintain high-side voltage. The motor drive IC uses a charge-pump circuit for all three high-side voltage with various protection schemes for automotive applications.

In order to obtain the optimal estimation method of fracture toughness of dual phase steel in which martensitic phase encapsulated islands of ferritic phase, the stretched zone (SZ) method and the R-curve method of the JSME S 001 was discussed. The results obtained are as follows. (1) The $J_{IC}$ values estimated by the SZ method are overestimated as compared with those by the R-curve method. (2) The $J_{IC}$ by the R-curve method decreases with the increase of the ferrite grain size and the martensite hardness. (3) The overestimation of $J_{IC}$ by the SZ method is due to the continuous plastic blunting of ferrite after the formation of stable crack which affects the critical stretched zone width.

Generally, Permanent Magnet Brushless DC Motor(PM BLDC) is necessary the Hall-IC to detect the rotor position. But it will take place the operation standstill of motor or error of rotor position detection according to the circumference temperature, humidity, or limited surroundings. This paper propose the algorithm of rotor position detection only using one or two Hall-IC. Therefore we can estimate information of the others phase in sequence through a rotor instead of using three Hall-IC at 3 phase motor. This paper identify the same characteristics, performance and function of protection circuit by the proposed algorithm with the 3 phase PM BLDC motor in comparison with general method.

In this paper, a light-emitting diode (LED) backlight driver integrated circuit (IC) for medium-sized liquid crystal displays (LCDs) is proposed. In the proposed IC, a linear current regulator with matched internal resistors and an adaptive phase-shifted pulse-width modulation (PWM) dimming controller are also proposed to improve LED current uniformity and reliability. The double feedback loop control boost converter is used to achieve high power efficiency, fast transient characteristic, and high dimming frequency and resolution. The proposed IC was fabricated using the 0.35 ${\mu}m$ bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) process. The LED current uniformity and LED fault immunity of the proposed IC were verified through experiments. The measured power efficiency was 90%; the measured LED current uniformity, 97%; and the measured rising and falling times of the LED current, 86 and 7 ns, respectively. Due to the fast rising and falling characteristics, the proposed IC operates up to 39 kHz PWM dimming frequency, with an 8-bit dimming resolution. It was verified that the phase difference between the PWM dimming signals is changed adaptively when LED fault occurs. The experiment results showed that the proposed IC meets the requirements for the LED backlight driver IC for medium-sized LCDs.
