We propose a new pH-sensing scheme using a methylene blue adsorption on an optical fiber cladding surface. Interactions between the silica and hydroxyl ions of a base solution induce the surface of the silica negatively charged. The charged surface attracts the positively charged chromophores of methylene blue. As the pH of the solution is reduced, the electrostatic attraction will also be reduced. This electrostatic attraction can change the transmitted light intensity of the cladding mode, since the boundary condition changes. We also carried out a simulation to verify the effect from external refractive index change around a long-period fiber grating. Our results confirm that the wavelength shift by external refractive index change is negligible compared to the transmitted light intensity variation of the cladding mode. By using a long-period grating pair, we can detect the cladding mode transmittance variations. Experimentally, we showed the possibility of pH sensing in the $1.5{\mu}m$ infrared region.

극자외선 리소그래피(EUV lithography) 기술은 50nm 이하의 선폭을 가지는 차세대 소자 제작에 있어서 선도적인 기술 중 하나이다. EUVL 에서 필수적인 요소중의 하나가 mirror 로 사용되는 blank mask 이다. Blank mask 에 있어서 가장 중요한 요소는 반사도이다. 이 blank mask 는 Si substrate 위에 반사를 위한 Mo/Si pair 가 40pair 이상 적층되어있다. Blank mask 는 매우 청결해야한다. 만약 결함이 있다면 blank mask 에는 치명적이다 결함은 blank mask 에 있어서 반사도를 떨어뜨리는 주 요소이기 때문이다. 그 결함에는 amplitude defect 과 phase defect 이 있다. FIB 에서는 amplitude defect 을 수정하는 것이 가능하다. 우리는 FIB 를 이용하여 mage mode, spot mode, bar rotation mode 를 사용하여 amplitude defect을 수정하였다. 그리고, 그 결과 효과적으로 amplitude defect을 수정하였다.

This study proposes a method of an equivalent bell model in order to tune the beat period of a Korean bell. In a Korean bell having a slight asymmetry, each circumferential mode splits into a mode pair which has a slight difference in frequency, and the interaction of the mode pair makes a beat in vibration and sound. An equivalent bell model which consists of an axi-symmetric bell and an equivalent point mass, has the same mode property as in a real bell. The equivalent bell model is constructed by the finite element analysis based upon the theory of a revolutionary shell. Using the equivalent bell model, the beat period is predicted when the bell thickness is locally decreased to improve the beat property. The predicted result is verified by experiment on a test bell. The proposed method is useful to save the time required for tuning the beat period of a large bell.

The main mission of OTM(On-The-Move) satellite communication system is to provide satellite communication service while moving on a vehicle. So it should have a capability to maintain a reliable communication channel when it travels at high speeds or in a severe fluctuation region. This paper presents a small-sized multi-mode monopulse structure applicable to OTM satellite communication system which has only single mode-coupler with a pair of slot using a feature of circular polarized received signal. And tracking error signal is defined using fundamental and high-order modes.

The \gamma-ray spectrometer of the PGAA (Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis) facility constructed at HANARO of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute was upgraded to the multi-mode spectrometer including the single mode, the Compton suppression mode and the pair mode. The performance of the spectrometer was tested and summarized. The background count rate and the uncertainty of the detection efficiency were reduced greatly in comparison with those before the new installation.

In this paper, we proposed a mixed-mode s-parameter measurement system for measuring the performance of twisted pairs. A twisted pair is a balanced type component, its characteristics can not be directly measured using network analyzer, which is generally implemented as a unbalanced type. It is possible to convert between balanced signal and unbalanced signal by using a balun but it restricts the frequency range of the measurement system. The proposed system measures the performance of twisted pairs by measuring mixed-mode s-parameters using a 4-port vector network analyzer and a designed fixture, without using a balun. We measured the performance of a commercial Ethernet cable and compared with the results which measured by using baluns. The results showed that the proposed system is capable of measuring the performance of twisted pairs.

Saturable reactor-resistor pair is proposed as a part of snubber and applied to a hard commutation chopper. SCR turn off process is modeled to simulate the hard commutation chopper. State equations are derived for each mode of the chopper and they are solved by Runge-Kutta 4th order method. It is shown that the reverse voltage spike and reverse dv/dt can be minimized by applying saturable reactor-resistor pair to the chopper which controls peak reverse recovery current and damping factor. Saturable reactor-resistor pair can be used to reduced SCR power loss and value of snubber capacitor and can be applied to high power thyristor devices.

Particle displacement distributions of the fundamental mode and overtone modes in an energy-frapped single resonator and an energy-trapped double acoustically coupled filter using the thickness shear vibration were calculated. And the effects of the width of a pair of partial electrodes, the width of the gap between two pairs of partial electrodes and the magnitude of the plate back on the displacement distributions of the symmetric vibration mode and anti-symmetric vibration mode of the resonators and the filters were investigated.

The non-rational transfer function of a Bernoulli-Euler beam, as an important component of a flexible structure, is analyzed. The true pattern of zeros of that transfer function is investigated as a function of sensor and actuator seperation. Translational displacement sensors are used for two cases in which a force input and a moment input are seperately applied. When the displacement sensor is located at a certain point, the first pair of zeros on the real axis of the s-plane arrive at the origin and cancel the rigid-body mode. The location of the translational displacement sensors on the beamat which the rigid-body mode of the beam is unobservable is analyzed as the center of percussion and is uniquely located for each case. If sensor is moved beyond such a point, a pair of zeros appear on the imaginary axis and move away from the origin along the imaginary axis of the s-plane.

As an unique acoustic characteristic of a Korean bell. beat phenomenon is a periodic repetition of strong and weak sounds. Beat sounds good when it is clear and it has a proper period, however, it is not easy to satisfy these two conditions simultaneously. In this study, we propose a beat tuning method to satisfy these two conditions, by using an equivalent bell model. First, we construct an equivalent bell which has the same beat property with the 1st beat of a real bell and we investigate the change of mode pair by finite element analysis, when thickness of the bell is locally decreased at $22.5^{\circ}$ from the striking point. From the analysis result, minimum thickness reduction amount is determined to make a clear and strong beat.
