This study aims to suggest a new perspective that can account for variations in fertility rates across OECD countries. Most previous literature has highlighted the influence of government policies on fertility rates. This study focuses the role of job strain, unequal division of household labor, and life satisfaction on fertility rates. These factors are related to work-life balance, and play a crucial role in understanding variations in fertility rates across OECD countries. Using fuzzy set qualitative comparative research analysis (fsQCA), this study tests whether fertility rates can be explained by differences in the levels of job strain, gender equality at home, and life satisfaction across countries. The results are as follows: First, high fertility-countries show low levels of job strain, equal division of household labor, high levels of life satisfaction, and high levels of GDP. Second, a high level of GDP is not crucial for achieving high fertility rates. This study suggests that changes in working conditions and organizational culture are required to increase the fertility rate in Korea, since this can influence work-life balance, life satisfaction and equal division of household labor.

Smart Grid is a next-generation intelligent grid to optimize energy efficiency by integrating information and communication technologies to the existing power grid as a two-way exchange of information. HPGP communication standard for smart grid implementation has been developed for the emerging smart energy, home automation, electric vehicle communications applications. HPGP communication standard has the advantage of reducing cost and power consumption. Also, it can be interoperated with the previous HPAV communication standard. For the introduction of a new communication standard, the analysis of the reliability and interoperability verification is required. In this paper, we present sniffer test method as reliability test method about power line communication between PEV(Plug-in Electric Vehicle) and EVSE(Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment). Power line communication between PEV and EVSE is one of the most important Smart Gird applications. Also, we analyzed sniffer test results about power line communication based on HPGP between PEV and EVSE by using QCA7000 device, AVitar and Tool kit.

Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata is a next-generation nanocircular design technology that is drawing attention from many research organizations not only because it is possible to design efficient circuits by overcoming the physical size limitations of existing CMOS circuits, but also because of its energy-efficient features. In this paper, one of the existing digital circuits, T flip-flop circuit, is proposed using QCA. The previously proposed T flip-flops are designed based on the majority gate, so the circuits are complex and have long delays. Therefore, the design of the XOR gate-based T flip-flop using cell interaction reduces circuit complexity and minimizes latency. The proposed circuit is simulated using QCADesigner, and the performance is compared and analyzed with the existing proposed circuits.

In this paper, the rheological chances in sensitive materials was investigated by using QCA(Quartz Chemical Analyzer). Langmuir-Blodgett method was used to transfer sensitive material to the quartz crystals because of its facility to control that amount, and deposited sensitive material has uniformity to compare with other methods respectively. For the gas sensor using mass loading effect of quartz crystal microbalance, generally the Sauberary equation has been believed to represent the only mass loading effect. But when the organic gas is adsorpted into sensitive material, the rheological changes are occurred with different pattern as to the kinds of gases. Thus, much simpler method to identify the organic or hazard gas will be obtained by the consideration of resonant frequency changes and resonant admittance changes simultaneously.

The rheological changes in sensitive materials was investigated by using QCA. Langmuir-Blodgett method was used to transfer sensitive material to the quartz crystals because of its facility to control the thickness. To develop gas sensor using quartz crystal, the rheological change of sensitive LB films were observed using the resonant resistance concept. And the rheological changes as to adsorption of organic vapours were used to analyze the response mechanism between organic vapours and sensitive LB films. We considered with resonant frequency of quartz crystal to obtain one-channel gas sensor and analytical tools of organic vapours response. In our results, we analyzed the organic vapours response by the rheological changes and mass loading as to adsorption of organic vapours.

Purpose: In the highly competitive franchise market, the perceived entrepreneurial passion and emotions of customers are very important, because it impacts on the success of companies. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to suggest how the impact of the franchise entrepreneurial passion and positive emotions on the brand trust and loyalty of customers. Research design, data and methodology: This study analyzes data was collected through questionnaires on customer(n=480) who had visited franchise restaurants. Analysis of used collected data was based on the mix method using quantitative and qualitative comparative analysis. Results: The quantitative analysis results showed inventing passion, developing passion, positive emotions that perceived by customers have a positive impact on brand trust. On the other hand, founding passion did not have an impact on loyalty in quantitative analysis. but when combined with developing passion in qualitative comparison analysis, but when combined with developing passion in qualitative comparison, that became the sufficient condition of high loyalty of customers. Conclusions: The franchisor of the Korean franchise industry is indiscriminately overusing the founding franchisees, causing social problems. In this situation, founding passion can have a negative impact on customers. Therefore, the franchisors must have management capabilities by strictly managing the founding rules of the franchisee and disclosing the corporate vision.

Molecular self-assembled of surfactant viologens are recently interesting because they can be from functional electrodes as well as micelle assemblies which can be profitably utilized for display devices, electrochemical studies and electrocatalysis as electron acceptor or electron mediator. The electrochemical behavior of self-assembled viologen monolayer on Au electrode surface has been investigated with QCM which has been known as nano-gram order mass detector. A monolayer of viologen is immobilized on the gold electrode surface and the normal potentials corresponding to the to the successive one-electron transfer processes of the viologen actives are two peaks in 0.1mol/l phosphate buffer solution respectively. These result suggest that the viologen SAMs are stable and well-behaved monolayers.
