We present the enhancement of narrowband modulation response of an optical source by integrating a dual-electrode distributed feedback (DFB) laser with an electro-absorption modulator (EAM). The dual-electrode DFB laser exhibits a multiple optical modes owing to a self-pulsation in GHz range. By modulating the laser and modulator sections of the integrated device simultaneously, 20-dB of narrowband modulation response enhancement at 6 GHz with 7-GHz tuning range has been observed.

The effects of magnetic powder size on electromagnetic wave absorption characteristics in Fe-6.5Si-0.9Cr(wt%) alloy flakes/polymer composite sheets available for quasi-microwave band have been investigated. The composite sheet including small magnetic flakes with the size less than $26{\mu}m$ exhibited high power loss in the GHz frequency range as compared with the sheets having large alloy flakes of $45{\sim}75{\mu}m$. Moreover, both the complex permeability and the loss factor increased with the decrease in size of the alloy flakes. The large power loss of the sheets containing small magnetic flakes was attributed to the high complex permeability, especially their imaginary part. The high complex permeability of the sheets composed of small flakes was considered to be due to the highly thin shape of the flakes inducing low eddy-current loss.

In this study, the composites containing carbon black (CB) or carbon fibers were prepared, and the microwave absorbing properties and the absorption mechanism of them were investigated and discussed in the frequency range of 2-18 GHz, respectively. The optimum mass fraction of CB has been found as 6%, and the carbon fibers were discovered to absorb radar wave either under parallel or vertical polarization, the suitable gap distance between each bundle of which was 5 mm. According to the results of the single constitute absorber samples, the structured composites with the two kinds of absorbers combination were fabricated and studied at 2-18 GHz. The top layer absorbers affect the absorption performance a lot; the maximum reflection loss of composites with CB as top layer absorbers was -31.8 dB with the frequency range of 2.4 GHz below -10 dB, and the other type with CFs as the top layer absorbers obtained the reflection loss peak value of -31.4 dB with 2 GHz below-10 dB.

Plasma-spraying was conducted to produced the microwave absorbing surface films on the alumi-num-alloy used for the fuselage to protect the aircraft against the RADAR detction. The surface films were produced by plasma-splaying the mecharucally mixed composite powders of the silicon carblde and Ni-Zn ferrite. This M /W absorbers were designed experimentally and fabricated trialty, as a result of which the rolative frequency bandwidth of 7.6 to 8.4% were obtained under the tolerance limits of the re-flection coefficients lower than -6dB(absorption ratio 75%), and the maximum absorption thickness becomes 0.5 to 0.5.imm, which Is much thinner than that of the conventional ones.

The microwave absorption ($P_{tot}$), which is the double integration value of ferromagnetic resonance signal, propositional to the saturation magnetization, and the increase of the $P_{tot}$ measured during the thermal reaction time expect the growth process of the nanoparticles. Therefore, in this work, we measured the $P_{tot}$ in order to obtain the growth time of iron oxide nanoparticles after thermal decomposition of $Fe(acac)_3$ precursor at aging temperature $T_a=273$, 300 and $324^{\circ}C$, respectively. The best condition for monodisperse nanoparticles was obtained at $T_a=300^{\circ}C$, which condition showed the most rapid increase of $P_{tot}$ with thermal reaction time. Finally, the rapid growth rate was necessary condition for the synthesis of iron-oxide monodisperse nanoparticles.

The objective of this research is to evaluate various reclamation methods of sewage sludge cake after treating with microwave under optimum conditions. In this study the sewage sludge cakes used from S and N wastewater treatment plants in the P city. Microwave with an induced electricity heating way was employed for dehydration of sewage sludge cake. Microwave operation conditions is 2,450 MHz of frequency and the power with 1 to 4 kW. This sewage sludge cake had a moisture content of 70%. The moisture content of the sludge decreased notable up to 2%(wt) resulted in breaking of cell wall. When the treated sewage sludge cake mixed with soils could be applied to use midterm and last cover material soils. Moreover, the adsorption ability of heavy metals such as copper, lead, chromium and cadmium was greatly enhanced by treated sewage sludge cake. Within 30 minutes, 1ppm of copper, chromium and cadmium and 10ppm of lead with 1g of the treated sewage sludge cake in $100m{\ell}$ were below detection. It was possible to use the treated sewage sludge cake as an absorbent for absorption of toxic heavy metals. Results from this research indicated that using of microwave radiation was an effective method for treating sewage sludge cake economically and environmental. A point of view of reclamation, the treated sewage sludge cake appeared to be feasible with an adsorption of heavy metals in steady of using expensive yellow earth.

For th aim of lightweight microwave absorbers, conductive and magnetic microspheres are fabricated by plating of Co films on hollow ceramic microspheres of low density. Metal plating was carried out in a two-step electroless plating process (pre-treatment of activation and plating). Uniform coating of the film with about $2{\~}3{\cal}um$ thickness was identified by SEM. High-frequency magnetic and microwave absorbing properties were determined in the rubber composites containing the Co-coated microspheres. Due to conductive and ferromagnetic behavior of the Co thin films, high dielectric constant and magnetic loss can be obtained in the microwave frequencies. Due to those electromagnetic properties, high absorption rate (25 dB) and thin matching thickness ($2.0{\~}2.5{\cal}mm$) are predicted in the composite layers containing the metal-coated microspheres of low density (about 0.84 g/cc) for the electromagnetic radiation in microwave frequencies.

We have investigated the photocatalytic activity for the decomposition of methyl orange on the pure $LaCoO_3$ and metal ion doped $LaCoO_3$ perovskite-typeoxides prepared using microwave process. In the case of pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts, the formation of the perovskite crystalline phase was confirmed regardless of the preparation method. From the results of UV-Vis DRS, the pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts have the similar absorption spectrum up to visible region. The chemisorbed oxygen plays an important role on the photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange and the higher the contents of chemisorbed oxygen, the better performance of photocatalyst.

With the growth of high speed circuit, unwanted system noise is increased and multipoint ground is used to reduce this noise. PCB screw ground structure has radiation noise by ground loop between screws. In order to solve this problem, in this paper, we proposed improved PCB ground structure. Proposed structure improves noise absorption by using microwave absorber and conductive copper tape. We measured radiation PCB noise in the range of 1 ㎓ to 3 ㎓ to investigate proposed structure usefulness. From these results, under 2 ㎓ range proposed structure has noise reduction by 2.62 dBuV/m, which compared with screw ground.

Diamond is synthesized from the gaseous mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen by microwave PECVD. $10{\times}10mm^2$ silicon wafers are used as the substrate,and it can be raised more than $900^{\circ}C$ by microwave absorption, radiation by plasma and bombardment of ions. The changes of the morphology and the growth rates of the deposits with the experimental conditions are examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy. The d values of all the deposited films concide with those of powder diffraction data in XRD. In Raman spectra, the peak of the deposit coincides with that of the natural diamond which has a value of 1332.5 $cm^{-1}$, and the broad peak from 1360 $cm^{-1}$to 1600 $cm^{-1}$which represents the amorphous graphite was observed in the higher concentration of carbon monoxide.
