For the production of urethane prepolymer, the effect of process parameters such as diisocyanate MDI and polyol TDI was tested. In this paper, design of experiments has been adopted for studying the effect of the process parameters on the improvement of NCO and viscosity of pre-polymer. As a result of comparison of different parameters, the effect of polyol was stronger than that of isocyanate in comparison of reactivity according to the amounts of isocyanate and polyol. Especially, NCO and viscosity of pre-polymer affected a product safety.

Abstract-Si direct bonding(SDB) technology is very attractive for both Si-on-insulator(SOI) electric devices and MEMS applications because of its stress free structure and stability. This paper presents on pre-bonding according to HF pre-treatment conditions in Si wafer direct bonding. The characteristics of bonded sample were measured under different bonding conditions of HF concentration, and applied pressure. The bonding strength was evaluated by tensile strength method. The bonded interface and the void were analyzed by using SEM and IR camera, respectively. Components existed in the interlayer were analysed by using FT-lR. The bond strength depends on the HF pre-treatment condition before pre-bonding (Min : 2.4kgf/cm$^2$∼Max : 14.9kgf/cm$^2$).

The flashover of insulators in vacuum is the main factor to limit the performance of insulation in vacuum insulation system. It is believed that the pre-flashover phenomena would play a very important role in the procedure of the flashover in the interface between the insulators and vacuum. This paper is mainly concerned on the pre-flashover phenomena of Alumina insulators in vacuum. There are 24 different types of alumina insulators were tested with a 0.7/4 ${\mu}s$ pulsed voltage under a $1\times10^{-4}Pa$ vacuum. The observed pre-flashover phenomena were classified and the pre-flashover characteristics were concluded. It is useful to study further on the flashover mechanism in vacuum.

Stainless steels in general has passive film having strong corrosion resistance on surface. Therefore it must be necessarily removed by etching in mixing solution of sulfuric and chloric acid before Nitriding treatment. But in the ion nitriding, nitride layer was easily formed because passive film was removed without difficult by sputtering effect. The removal extent of these passive films was greatly effected by gas mixing ratios and pressure and holding times of pre sputtering factors in pre sputtering stage. As a results of experiment it has been known that pre sputtering pressure and holding time was not nearly effective on the formation behavior of nitride layer. But when A/H2 gas mixing ratios was 1/2 (vol%) was the most effective of the all pre sputtering conditions. It was resulted from the combination of mechanical reaction byArgon bombardment and chemical reaction by reduction of hydrogen on the passive film.

The computerized cardiac analysis system, which acquires and analyzes the electrical activation signal propagating along the surface of the heart, is indispensible equipment for the open heart surgery and electrical cardiac study. In this paper, the design requirement and the electrical circuit analysis are performed to construct the multi-channel cardiac activation pre-amplifier necessary for a signal conditioning circuit. The general 64 channel configuration is expanded into 128 channels to enhance the spatial resolution on the mapped surface of the heart. The 128 channels pre-amplifier consists of input circuit, differential amplifier, right leg driven circuit and isolation part. It has distinct features; high voltage protection, leakage current limitation, isolation and the maximization of common mode rejection ratio with respect to the half-cell potential difference due to different electrode materials. The final pre-amplifier circuit is assembled with 8 boards, each of which composing of 16 channels.

This study investigates the effects of the pre-strain level on mechanical properties of the solid-phase formed thermoplastic composite. A uniaxial solid-phase forming was performed at the temperature of 125$\^{C}$ and at the constant cross-head speed of 3mm/sec. The composite sheet was formed to various pre-strain levels of 10%, 20%, and 30%. Tension, flexural, and impact tests were carried out to characterize the material properties of a solid-phase formed part. Tensile and flexural strengths decreased with increasing the pre-strain level, while impact strength increased. Various microstructures of the formed part explained the above material behavior.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effects of pre-formed space charges by DC stress on partial discharge(PD) characteristics in XLPE. We have suggested a modified pulsed electro-acoustic(PEA) method and successfully measured both space charge distribution and current simultaneously. It has been demonstrated that the PD patterns are strongly influenced by the pre-formed space charge distributions, which are hardly disappeared up to AC 8㎸ in electrode configuration including air gap between XLPE layer and electrode. From the results, it could be said that the pre-formed space charges by DC stress can play harmful and dangerous roles in insulating system under AC operating voltages because of the field distortion and localization due to the pre-formed space charge.

In this paper, precipitation echo(PRE) and non-precipitaion echo(N-PRE)(including ground echo and clear echo) through weather radar data are identified with the aid of neuro-fuzzy algorithm. The accuracy of the radar information is lowered because meteorological radar data is mixed with the PRE and N-PRE. So this problem is resolved by using RBFNN and judgement module. Structure expression of weather radar data are analyzed in order to classify PRE and N-PRE. Input variables such as Standard deviation of reflectivity(SDZ), Vertical gradient of reflectivity(VGZ), Spin change(SPN), Frequency(FR), cumulation reflectivity during 1 hour(1hDZ), and cumulation reflectivity during 2 hour(2hDZ) are made by using weather radar data and then each characteristic of input variable is analyzed. Input data is built up from the selected input variables among these input variables, which have a critical effect on the classification between PRE and N-PRE. Echo judgment module is developed to do echo classification between PRE and N-PRE by using testing dataset. Polynomial-based radial basis function neural networks(RBFNNs) are used as neuro-fuzzy algorithm, and the proposed neuro-fuzzy echo pattern classifier is designed by combining RBFNN with echo judgement module. Finally, the results of the proposed classifier are compared with both CZ and DZ, as well as QC data, and analyzed from the view point of output performance.

TSV based 3D ICs have been widely developed with new problems at die and IC levels. It is imperative to test at post-bond as well as pre-bond to achieve high reliability and yield. This paper introduces a new testable design technique which not only test microscopic defects at TSV input/output contact at a die but also test interconnect defects at a stacked IC. IEEE 1500 wrapper cells are augmented and through at-speed tests for pre-bond die and post-bond IC, known-good-die and defect free 3D IC can be massively manufactured+.
