The reversal of a silicon chip to find out its security structure is common and possible at the present time. Thanks to reversing, it is possible to use a probing attack to obtain useful information such as personal information or a cryptographic key. For this reason, security-related blocks such as DES (Data Encryption Standard), AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), and RSA (Rivest Shamir Adleman) engines should be located in the lower layer of the chip to guard against a probing attack; in this regard, the addition of a silicon-surface-protection layer onto the chip surface is a crucial protective measure. But, for manufacturers, the implementation of an additional silicon layer is burdensome, because the addition of just one layer to a chip significantly increases the overall production cost; furthermore, the chip size is increased due to the bulk of the secure logic part and routing area of the silicon protection layer. To resolve this issue, this paper proposes a practical silicon-surface-protection method using a metal layer that increases the security level of the chip while minimizing its size and cost. The proposed method uses a shift register for the alternation and variation of the metal-layer data, and the inter-connection area is removed to minimize the size and cost of the chip in a more extensive manner than related methods.

The structure of 3-aminophenol $(CO_2)_1$ cluster was computationally studied both in the ground and the lowest singlet excited electronic states. The ground state structure and binding energy of the cluster was investigated using the second-order M$\ddoot{o}$ller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) at the complete basis set (CBS) limit. The excited state geometry of the cluster was obtained at the second-order approximate coupled cluster (CC2) level with cc-pVDZ basis set, and the $S_0-S_1$ absorption spectrum was simulated by calculating Franck-Condon overlap integral. The ground state geometry of the global minimum with a very high binding energy of 4.3 kcal/mol was found for the cluster, due to the interaction between amino group and $CO_2$ in addition to the strong $\pi-\pi$ interaction between the aromatic ring and $CO_2$. The excited state geometry shows a very big shift in the position of $CO_2$ compared to the ground state geometry, which results in low intensity and broad envelope in the Franck-Condon simulation.

양이온 결손 La0.970Mn0.970O3의 x-ray photoemission spectroscopy를 온도를 함수로 측정하였다. 온도의 변화에 따라서 Mn 2p와 3d core level의 화학적 변동 및 이동이 관측되었다. 즉 Mn 2p 3/2와 1/2 및 La 3d core 스펙트럼은 온도의 증가와 함께 저 결합 에너지 측으로 이동이 관측되었다. 이러한 XPS 관측 결과는 Mn3+의 localization의 강도 변화에 의한 것으로 사료되며, Mn3+에 의한 Jahn-Teller효과 이외에도 conventional random potential 효과 역시 La0.790Mn0.970O3의 전도 carrier의 localization에 기여하는 것으로 사료된다.

The energy efficiency and bandwidth efficiency are two important criterion in designing a modulation scheme Especially the constant envelope property must be considered as in the non-linear channel tht exit, for example in the nonlinear amplifiers for satellite repeater. The Q$^{2}$AM(Quadrature Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) is a new modulation scheme which combines the Q$^{2}$PSK(Quadrature Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) scheme which increases the signal space dimension and the QAM scheme which increases the bandwidth efficiency using the multi-level signal. The Q$^{2}$AM scheme has by far superior spectrum efficiency compared with the existing modulation schemes. Applying this scheme in the non-linear communication system increses the bandwidth efficiency but cannot envelop property. In this paper, a new system architecture is suggested which satisfies the large spectrum efficiency and constant envelope property by implementing the linear block coding prior to the Q$^{2}$AM modulation. the system has improved in performance by gaining the constant envelope and the additional coding gain. We able to observe the performance improvement of the suggested system(at BER=10$^{-5}$ ) of 4.4 dB for the 16-QAM and 0.7 dB for the Q$^{2}$PSK under the exact spectrum efficiency.

We report on the formation mechanism of large Schottky barrier height (SBH) of nonalloyed Cr Schottky contacts on strained Al0.25Ga0.75N/GaN. Based on the current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) data, the SBHs are determined to be 1.98 (${\pm}0.02$) and 2.07 (${\pm}0.02$) eV from the thermionic field emission and two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) calculations, respectively. Possible formation mechanism of large SBH will be described in terms of the formation of Cr-O chemical bonding at the interface between Cr and AlGaN/GaN, low binding-energy shift to surface Fermi level, and the reduction of 2DEG electrons.

Purpose: This study examined post-traumatic stress (PTS) and the factors affecting it among general hospital nurses after the MERS(Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) epidemic. Methods: Data were collected from 170 nurses who worked at general hospitals since the first reported MERS outbreak. The IES-R-K assessed PTS. Data were analyzed using SPSS. Results: The mean PTS level was 7.80 points (range: 0~88); 7.1% of the participants were at a high risk. Nurses who had been in contact with patients suspected or diagnosed with MERS had high post-traumatic levels; those who had been quarantined during the MERS outbreak had relatively higher PTS levels. Shift-work nurses had higher PTS levels than those with fixed working hours. Above charge' nurses stress levels were higher than staff nurses' stress levels. The results showed that factors including contact with an MERS-suspected or diagnosed patient, position at work, and working status of MERS-affected nurses explained 16% of the PTS. Among the main variables, nurses' above charge position was the greatest factor affecting PTS. Discussion: It is necessary to develop intervention studies and programs considering these variables. Furthermore, development and implementation of differentiated programs should be done considering the position of above charge nurses.

The purpose of this study was to compare differences in endurance time and EMG power spectral characteristics of the masticatory muscles during sustained isometric contraction between patients and controls. 15 CMD patients{8 women and 7 men, aged 15 to 38 years(24.1$\pm$7.5)}, and 15 healthy volunteers{8 women and 7 men, aged 15 to 30 years(24.7$\pm$3.4)} without past history or present symptoms of CMD were included in this study. Sustained isometric contractions of masticatory muscles were perfomeed as long as possible at 50% level of maximum voluntary contraction(MVC) of EMG activity via visual feedback, and the duration of sustained isometric contraction(endurance time) was examined. The author perfomed EMG power spectral analysis in the myoelectric signals of masseter and anterior temporal muscle during sustained isometric contraction in CMD patients with chronic muscle pain and healthy controls. The author came to following conclusions from the results. 1. The endurance time of the patient group was shorter than the control group in sustained isometric contraction of masticatory muscles(p<0.01). 2. MF values of masticatory muscles with sustained isometric contraction during endurance time were decreased following regression line in both groups(p<0.01, r>0.9). 3. The amount of MF shift to lower frequency range exhibited no significant differences between the patients and the control group in sustained isometric contraction during endurance time. 4. SMF to lower frequency range of the patient group was steeper than the control group in sustained isometric contraction during endurance time(p<0.05).

The relaxed torsional potential of a liquid crystalline polymer containing an ester functional group in a mesogenic unit (hereafter 12-4 oligomer) has been calculated with the ab initio self-consistent-field using 6-31G$^*$ basis set. GIAO^{13}C NMR chemical shifts also have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G$^*$ level of theory for each conformational structure obtained from torsional potential calculation. The results show that the phenyl ring-ester linkages are coplanar with the dihedral angle of about 0$^{\circ}$ and the ring-ring linkages in the biphenyl groups are tilted with the dihedral angle of around 43-44$^{\circ}$ in the lowest energy conformer. The biphenyl ring has a comparatively lower energy barrier of internal rotation potential in the ring-ring than that of phenyl ring-ester. The ^{13}C chemical shifts of carbonyl carbons were found to move to upfield due to $\pi$ -conjugation with phenyl ring and slightly affected about 0.5 ppm by dihedral angle of the ring-ring linkage.

The design specifications of guard fences in Japan were reexamined and the revised specifications were implemented from April 1999. Because of the huge consumption in time and cost to test the performances of full-scale guard fences in the field, some assumptions are adopted while modifying the design specifications, and numerical analyses are necessary to confirm the impact performance and safety level of new types of steel highway guard fences. In this study, the finite element models are developed for the heavy trucks and steel highway guard fences to reenact their behaviors, and the solution approach is carried out using nonlinear dynamic analysis software of structures in three dimensions (LS-DYNA). The numerical simulation results are compared with the full-scale on-site testing results to verify the proposed analysis procedure. The collision process is simulated and it is also made possible to visualize the movement of the truck and the performances of guard fences. In addition, the energy shift of the truck kinetic energy to the truck and guard fence Internal energy, and the energy absorption of each guard fence component are studied for the development of a new design methodology of steel highway guard fences based on the energy absorption capacity.

Arylsulfatase를 암호화하는 Neurospora crassa의 ars-1 유전자는 황의 결핍에 의해서 발현이 조절된다. lacZ 유전자에 연결된 ars-1 프로모터 (Pars)가 N. crassa RLM 35-35 a his-3 inl 균주에 형질전환되고, 유사 서열 재조합에 의한 단일 교차에 의해서 염색체의 his-3 부위로 도입이 되었다. 황이 결여된 Vogel의 배지에서 자란 균사로부터 $\beta$-galactosidase 활성이 측정되었다. $\beta$-galactosidase 활성은 derepression 조건으로 변환한지 14 시간 후에 최고치를 기록하였다. Microconidiation에 의해서 생산된 homokaryon에서 측정된 활성은 heterokaryon보다 17% 증가가 되었음을 보여주었다. 이 실험은 ars-1 프로모터의 발현율을 측정할 수 있는 한 방법을 제시한 것으로, 보다 수월한 ars-1 발현 조절 연구가 기능할 것이다.
