The stability and efficiency of organic light emitting devices are the most critical problems to be solved. The devices based on tris-8-(hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$) and N,N-diphenyl-N,N-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1, 1-biphenyl-4,4-diamine (TPD) were used to study the effects of buffer layers on their characteristics. We have investigated the characteristic effects of CuPc (copper phthalocyanine) and pentacene buffer layers on the device characteristics, the (5${\sim}$20 nm thick) CuPc layers and the (10${\sim}$20 nm thick) pentacene layers were deposited. Efficiency was slightly improved and the turn-on voltages of the devices with the buffer layers were observed to have lower values than those of the devices without the buffer layers. It is believed that this result is attributed to the improvement of hole injection capability through the buffer layers into hole transport layer (HTL). We have also studied the atomic force microscopic images of the TPD layers deposited on the buffer layer and the bare ITO.

Objectives: This study investigated the effects of physically damaged and resin-contaminated tips on radiant emittance, comparing them with new undamaged, non-contaminated tips using 3 pieces of spectrophotometric laboratory equipment. Materials and Methods: Nine tips with damage and/or resin contaminants from actual clinical situations were compared with a new tip without damage or contamination (control group). The radiant emittance was recorded using 3 spectrophotometric methods: a laboratory-grade thermopile, a laboratory-grade integrating sphere, and a portable light collector (checkMARC). Results: A significant difference between the laboratory-grade thermopile and the laboratory-grade integrating sphere was found when the radiant emittance values of the control or damaged/contaminated tips were investigated (p < 0.05), but both methods were comparable to checkMARC (p > 0.05). Regardless of the method used to quantify the light output, the mean radiant emittance values of the damaged/contaminated tips were significantly lower than those of the control (p < 0.05). The beam profile of the damaged/contaminated tips was less homogeneous than that of the control. Conclusions: Damaged/contaminated tips can reduce the radiant emittance output and the homogeneity of the beam, which may affect the energy delivered to composite restorations. The checkMARC spectrophotometer device can be used in dental offices, as it provided values close to those produced by a laboratory-grade integrated sphere spectrophotometer. Dentists should assess the radiant emittance of their light-curing units to ensure optimal curing in photoactivated, resin-based materials.

Flight parameters of a light aircraft in normal category named ChangGong-91 we identified from flight tests. Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MMLE) is used to produce aerodynamic coefficients, stability and control derivatives. A Flight Training Device (FTD) has been developed based on the identified flight parameters. Flat earth, rigid body, and standard atmosphere are assumed in the FTD model. Euler angles are adapted for rotational state variables to reduce computational load. Variations in flight Mach number and Reynolds number are assumed to be negligible. Body, stability and inertial axes allow 6 second-order linear differential equations for translational and rotational motions. The equations of motion are integrated with respect to time, resulting in good agreements with flight tests.

본 논문에서는 산업용 컴퓨터에서 사용할 마우스와 터치스크린을 이용한 전자펜 에뮬레이터 구현에 대하여 연구하였다. 산업용 제어 현장에서 사용되는 제어용 컴퓨터 전자펜 방식의 입력장치를 주로 사용하지만, 현재의 컴퓨터 주변장치를 직접 사용할 수 없는 경우가 대부분이다. 본 논문에서는 PC에서 사용하는 다양한 주변장치를 현재 구입 가능한 주변기기로서 그 기능을 대신하도록 구성하여, 생산 공정에서 사용하는 산업용 컴퓨터의 활용도를 높이고자 한다. 전자펜 에뮬레이터는 USB HOST, CPLD 그리고 MCU로 구성하였으며, USB 방식의 마우스와 터치스크린으로부터 입력된 신호를 해석한 후, 화면 좌표를 계산하여 전자펜 신호로 출력하였다. 설계 제작된 전자펜 에뮬레이터는 마우스, 디지타이져, 터치스크린 등 다양한 장치들을 산업용컴퓨터에서 사용이 가능함을 보였다.

We have studied physical properties of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) in a device with 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ). Since the TCNQ has a high electron affinity, it is widely used for a charge-transport and injection layer. And the TCNQ-derivatives have also been used to control the conductivity of the materials. It is known that a charge injection and transport in OLEDs with a TCNQ-derivative enhances a performance of the devices such as operating voltage and efficiency. To see how the TCNQ affects on the device performance, we have made a reference device in a structure of ITO(170nm)/TPD(40nm)/$Alq_3$(60nm)/LiF(0.5nm)/Al(100nm). And several type of devices were manufactured by doping TCNQ either in TPD or $Alq_3$ layer. The TCNQ layer was also formed in between the organic layers. N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-di(m-tolyl)-benzidine (TPD), tri(8-hydroxy quinoline) aluminium ($Alq_3$), and TCNQ layers were formed by thermal evaporation at a pressure of $10^{-6}$ torr. The deposition rate was $1.0{\sim}1.5\;{\AA}/s$ for TPD, and $1.0{\sim}1.5\;{\AA}$ for $Alq_3$. The LiF was thermally evaporated at a deposition rate of $0.2\;{\AA}/s$ successively. The device with TCNQ-derivative improved the turn-on voltage compared to the one without TCNQ-derivative.

This paper presents a sensor fusion method to recognize a cylindrical object a CCD camera, a laser slit beam and ultrasonic sensors on a pan/tilt device. For object recognition with a vision sensor, an active light source projects a stripe pattern of light on the object surface. The 2D image data are transformed into 3D data using the geometry between the camera and the laser slit beam. The ultrasonic sensor uses an ultrasonic transducer array mounted in horizontal direction on the pan/tilt device. The time of flight is estimated by finding the maximum correlation between the received ultrasonic pulse and a set of stored templates - also called a matched filter. The distance of flight is calculated by simply multiplying the time of flight by the speed of sound and the maximum amplitude of the filtered signal is used to determine the face angle to the object. To determine the position and the radius of cylindrical objects, we use a statistical sensor fusion. Experimental results show that the fused data increase the reliability for the object recognition.

A multi-rotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) system is developed to solve the manhole cover detection problem for the infrastructure maintenance in the suburbs of big city. The visible light sensor is employed to collect the ground image data and a series of image processing and machine learning methods are used to detect the manhole cover. First, the image enhancement technique is employed to improve the imaging effect of visible light camera. An imaging environment perception method is used to increase the computation robustness: the blind Image Quality Evaluation Metrics (IQEMs) are used to percept the imaging environment and select the images which have a high imaging definition for the following computation. Because of its excellent processing effect the adaptive Multiple Scale Retinex (MSR) is used to enhance the imaging quality. Second, the Single Shot multi-box Detector (SSD) method is utilized to identify the manhole cover for its stable processing effect. Third, the spatial coordinate of manhole cover is also estimated from the ground image. The practical applications have verified the outdoor environment adaptability of proposed algorithm and the target detection correctness of proposed system. The detection accuracy can reach 99% and the positioning accuracy is about 0.7 meters.

This paper introduces a new method regarding deuterium incorporation in the gate dielectric including deuterium implantation and post-annealing at the back-end-of-the process line. The control device and the deuterium furnace-annealed device were also prepared for comparison with the implanted device. It was observed that deuterium implantation at a light dose of $1{\times}10^{12}-1{\times}10^{14}/cm^2$ at 30 keV reduced hot-carrier injection (HCI) degradation and negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) within our device structure due to the reduction in oxide charge and interface trap. Deuterium implantation provides a possible solution to enhance the bulk and interface reliabilities of the gate oxide under the electrical stress.

Poly(1,4-phenylene(1-methoxyenthylene)), organic water soluble PPV precursor was synthesized for polymer electroluminescence(EL) device. To control the molecular array, deposition method of emitter was Langmuir-Blodgett(LB). PPV precursor layer was treated thermally to conversion of PPV. Optical, electrical and EL properties of PPV LB thin film was estimated. Homogeneous light emission of greenish-yellow in PPV LB thin film can be easily confirmed under normal lighting even at low driving voltage. Polymer EL device using PPV LB thin film as emitter materials had a possibility to apply to next generation display device.
