A duplexer filter operating at 1.9 GHz band for personal communication system is designed and fabricated using $lambada$/4 TEM mode dielectric resonator. The transmitting band pass filter is designed in the type of the elliptic function band rejection filter by 3 dielectric resonators with 5 additional capacitors and 3 inductors. The receiving band pass filter is designed by 3 dielectric resonators with 5 additional capacitors which give additional series resonance. The parameters which are evaluated by design theory are practically applied to the duplexer filter construction and the simulation.

The electromagnetic field distribution within rectangular coaxial transmission lines (RCTL:TEM cells) is calculated using a numerical method. Boundary integral equations(BIE) considering equivalence theorem and extended boundary condition(EBC) in tapered region are used, thereby restricting the operational frequencies (0~130 MHz) below the cell cutoff frequency(130 MHz). The EM fields within NIST TEM cell ($1\times0.6\times2m$) are calculated by this method. The results of the numerical calcuation have a good agreement in the cross-sectional EM field distribution of TEM cell with 2-dimensional analysis results. Based on this method, the first cutoff freque- ncy in high order modes in the cell and the electric field polarization are considered.

고강성 탄소섬유는 높은 비강도 및 고 강성 특성 때문에 탄소-탄소 복합재료의 가장 우수한 강화재로 각광을 받고 있다. 이 섬유는 미세 결정립의 높은 이방성을 나타내며, 이러한 높은 흑연화 특성은 기계적, 전기적, 전기적 그리고 화학적 특성 등을 좋게한다. 이러한 모든 방면에서의 우수한 특성 때문에 항공우주 재료분야에 의심 없이 가장 우수한 재료로 고려되고 있다. 이렇게 가벼우면서 고온강도가 요구되는 재료로써 탄소재료가 이용되면서 rocket의 nozzle이나 nosecone으로의 응용에는 고온 산화가 중요한 연구주제로 대두되어 왔다. 탄소재료의 산화반응은 결정구조 인자 및 그 배열에 가장 큰 영향을 받는다고 알려져 있는데, 출발원료 및 제조 조건에 따라 그 구조 및 배열이 현격하게 달라진다. 탄소재료의 구조 해석은 주로 TEM과 XRD를 이용해 왔다. 많은 연구자들은 오래 전부터 탄소재료 연구에 TEM에서 얻은 상이 불확실하고 문제가 있다고 보고하였고, 최근 TEM 장치의 발달과 더불어 실제 구조를 얻기가 가능함을 보여주고 있다 그러나 TEM 시편은 여전히 작고 시편으로부터 얻는 정보는 불과 nm 수준이다. 따라서 일반적으로 TEM으로 얻은 정량적인 정보는 불과 특정한 점에서의 정보이기 때문에 여전히 논란의 소지가 많다. XRD는 탄소재료의 미세구조 해석을 위하여 가장 널리 이용되는 분석기기이다.

To present the design direction of the thermoelectric module (TEM) refrigerator, analysis of the effect of the design parameters on the energy efficiency and performance of the refrigerator is performed. The design parameters considered are the cooling capacity of the TEM and the heat transfer performance of the heating and cooling surface of the TEM. The heat transfer performance is the most effective design parameter for improving cooling power. The smaller ΔT and cooling capacity of the TEM make the higher efficiency of the refrigerator.

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a powerful tool for analyzing a broad range of materials and provides localized information about the microstructure. However, the analysis results are strongly influenced by the quality of the thin foil specimen. Sample preparation for TEM analysis requires considerable skill, especially when the area of interest is small or the material of interest is difficult to thin because of its high hardness and its mechanical instability when thinned. This article selectively reviews recent advances in TEM sample preparation techniques using a tripod polisher. In particular, it introduces two typical types (fl at type and wedge type) of TEM sample preparation and the benefits and drawbacks of each method; finally, a method of making better samples for TEM analysis is suggested.

This study is to investigate the distribution of the radiation force exerted on a homogeneous sphere by two circularly-polarized counterpropagating $TEM_{00}$ laser beams. The time-averaged expressions of the rediation force are derived for both cases of two interfering $TEM_{00}$ laser beams and a standing plane electromagnetic wave. The radiation force is numerically calculated and the physical interpretations of computed results are presented. The results in this paper will be useful in the optical levitation experiment using two counterpropagating $TEM_{00}$ laser beams or a standing plane electomagnetic wave.

The main purpose of this paper is the preparation of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) samples from the microsized powders of lithium-ion secondary batteries. To avoid artefacts during TEM sample preparation, the use of ion slicer milling for thinning and maintaining the intrinsic structure is described. Argon-ion milling techniques have been widely examined to make optimal specimens, thereby making TEM analysis more reliable. In the past few years, the correction of spherical aberration (Cs) in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has been developing rapidly, which results in direct observation at an atomic level resolution not only at a high acceleration voltage but also at a deaccelerated voltage. In particular, low-kV application has markedly increased, which requires a sufficiently transparent specimen without structural distortion during the sample preparation process. In this study, sample preparation for high-resolution STEM observation is accomplished, and investigations on the crystal integrity are carried out by Cs-corrected STEM.

TEM(투과전자현미경, Transmission Electron Microscop)은 결정재료뿐 아니라 비정질 재료까지도 원자단위의 구조를 연구하는데 매우 유용한 도구이다. 특히 200kV의 가속전압 투과전자현미경에 FEG(Field Emission Gun) 전자총이 장착되기 시작하면서 TEM은 비정질 구조 연구에 하나의 핵심적인 도구로서의 역할이 크게 기대되는 장비가 되었다. 본 연구에서는 TEM의 microanalysis accessary인 EELS(Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy)technique을 주로 이용하던 기존의 방법대신 고 분해능(HRTEM(High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy)의 image로부터 비정질 정량묘사의 유일한 도구인 원자분포함수(RDF(Radial Distribution Function))로의 Reconstruction을 Simulation을 이용하여 시도하였다. 비정질 HRTEM image의 정량분석을 통하여 이 분야에서의 TEM의 한계를 이해하기 위하여 몇 모델을 제시하고 사용하였다. 또한 비정질 구조를 정량적으로 묘사하는 도구인 원자분포함수를 알아보고 비정질재료를 보다 물리적으로 모델링하기 위하여 가능한 모델 제시 후 첫 단계로서 HRTEM image에서 원자분포함수를 이끌어내기 위한 모델링을 수행하고 비정질 게르마늄(a-Ge) film에 대하여 실제로 적용하여 보았다. 마지막으로 실험적인 접근으로 200kV FE-TEm (poingt resolution 0.14nm) 으로 비정질 Ge의 image를 solw Scan CCD를 이용한 Elastic image를 Through Focus로 얻었으며 수치적인 정량비교를 역격자 공간에서 출발한 가장 물리적인 구조 모델을 이용하여 수행하였다. 모든 정량비교는 image의 Fourier 변환인 Diffractogram으로 하였다. 결론적으로, 많은 복잡한 수치 처리과정을 거쳐야 하지만 HRTEM의 image로부터 구조에 대한 정보(RDF)는 명확하게 얻을 수 있었다.

Structural changes during oxidation of anisotopic mesophase carbon fiber(AMCFs) have been observed with TEM and XRD. It was shown that the AMCFs are three dimensionally stacked structure of turbostratic layers, and are non-homogeneous structure which consist of the highly ordered areas and the random areas. The $d_{ 002}$, Lc, and La of AMCFs which were measured by XRD were 3.44, 146, and $135\AA$, respectively. It was observed that the oxidation initiated at the random areas, because the $d_{002}$ / decreased to the value of 3.41 $\AA$ during initial oxidation stage. It was also observed that the La of the oxidized AMCFs increased up to 182 $\AA$ during the whole oxidation process, and the $d_{002}$ of that increases up to 9.44 $\AA$ when the burn-off is over the degree of 20%. Therefore, it was suggested that the micro-crystalline grew up by heat treatment effects during the fibers were oxidized, In addition, it was shown that there was difference in the measured value of La by XRD and TEM, in case of 39% oxidized fibers for example, the measured La was $ 165\AA$ by XRD and in the range of 180∼220 $\AA$ by TEM.

In this study, 185 cefotaxime-resistant Escherichia coli were isolated from different stages of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Daegu in Korea. Among them, 99.5% (184 isolates) originated from raw sewage and 0.5% (1 isolates) from the final effluent. Cefotaxime-resistant E. coli were high resistant to ampicillin, piperacillin, cefazolin, cephalothin, cefachlor and cefamandole (99.5~100%). About 93% of the cefotaxime-resistant E. coli were extended-spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamases (ESBL)-producing E. coli. The $bla_{TEM+CTX}$ gene was the most predominant of the ESBL genes (72.5%), followed by $bla_{CTX-M}$ (16.2%), $bla_{TEM}$ (8.7%), $bla_{TEM+CTX+SHV}$ (1.1%), $bla_{TEM+SHV}$, $bla_{TEM+OXA}$, and $bla_{TEM+CTX+SHV}$ (respectvely 0.5%). Class 1 and 2 integron were found in 49.7% and class 3 integron was not found. All of integron positive isolates were multiresistant (i.e. resistant to four or more antibiotics). Our findings showed WWTP is contaminated with antibiotic resistant bacteria with resistance genes.
