Deep UBVI and $H{\alpha}$ photometry of the ${\eta}$ Carina nebula, one of the brightest nebulae on the sky, was obtained with the CTIO 4m telescope and MOSAIC II CCD Camera to determine the initial mass function down to low-mass (~1 M¤) stars. We modified the spatial variation coefficients in transformation relations of the MOSAIC II CCD. From the cross-identification of optical sources with previous surveys in X-ray, near-infrared, and mid-infrared, a clear PMS sequence is revealed in the optical color-magnitude diagrams down to V=23 mag. Our previous SSO 1m UBVI data for Trumpler 14 (Tr 14) and Trumpler 16 (Tr 16) region, and additional SSO 1m UBVI data for Trumpler 15 (Tr 15) region were combined with the CTIO 4m data to re-examine the reddening law and distance of the young open clusters in the ${\eta}$ Carina nebula. From the new photometric data for Tr 15 region, we report that RV[=AV/E(B-V)], the total-to-selective extinction ratio, decreases from southern part of the nebula (Tr 14 and Tr 16) to northern part (Tr 15) in our field of view.

In this work, we developed P(VDF-TrFE) organic/ferroelectric material based metal-ferroelectric-metal (MFM) capacitors in order to improve the switching characteristics of gallium nitride (GaN) heterojunction field-effect transistors (HFET). The 27 nm-thick P(VDF-TrFE) MFM capacitors exhibited about 60 ~ 96 pF capacitance with a polarization density of $6{\mu}C/cm^2$ at 4 MV/cm. When the MFM capacitor was connected in series with the gate electrode of GaN HFET, the subthreshold slope decreased from 104 to 82 mV/dec.

This paper proposes a network-based mobility control scheme in wireless/mobile networks, which is based on the Locator-Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP). Compared to the existing LISP mobility scheme, the proposed scheme is featured by the following two points: 1) each LISP Tunnel Router (TR) is implemented at the first-hop access router that mobile nodes are attached to, and 2) for handover support, the LISP Routing Locator (RLOC) update operation is performed between Ingress TR and Egress TR. By numerical analysis, it is shown that the proposed scheme can reduce the handover latency much more than the other candidate schemes.

Relaxation phenomena of the electro-optic coefficient in ferroelectric copolymer P (VDF- TrFE) were studied. The electro-optic coefficient of copolymers was measured by simple reflection method and the decay curves were fitted by KWW stretched exponentials. The copolymers poled near Tc. Were shown to be more stable than the copolymer poled at lower temperatures. Further, the relaxation time t depending on temperature was found to follow Arrhenius behavior and it was found that the activation energy of 50/50 mol% P (VDF-TrFE) copolymer is larger than that of 72/28 mol% copolymer. As a result, the ferroelectric copolymer with VDF of 50 mol% is was more stable.stable.

Phase behavior and spinodal phase separation kinetics in binary blends of a random copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and trifluoroethylene (75/25) [P(VDF/TrFE)] and poly(l,4-butylene adipate) (PBA) have been investigated by means of optical microscopic observation and time-resolved light scattering. The blends exhibited a typical lower critical solution temperature (LCST)∼${34}^{\circ}C$ above the melting temperature of the P(VDF/TrFE) crystals over the entire blend composition range. P(VDF/TrFE) and PBA were totally miscible in the temperature gap between the melting point of P(VDF/TrFE) and the LCST. Temperature jump experiments of the 3/7 P(VDF/TrFE)/PBA blend were carried out on a light-scattering apparatus from a single-phase melt state (${180}^{\circ}C$) to a two-phase region (205∼${215}^{\circ}C$). Since the late stage of spinodal decomposition (SD) is prevalent in the 3/7 blend, SD was analyzed using a power law scheme. Self-similarity was preserved well in the late stage of SD in the 3/7 blend.

P(VDF/TrFE) copolymer thin films with 70/30 and 80/20 mol% VDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) and TrFE (trifluoroethylene) rates were prepared by using a vapor deposition method, During thin films were prepared, the substrate temperatures were maintained at 30 $^{\circ}C$ and 120 $^{\circ}C$, and the heating source temperature was fixed at 350 $^{\circ}C$. Contary to PVDF homopolymer, P(VDF/TrFE) copolymers showed the Curie point(Tc) below the melting point. The Curie point (Tc) and the melting point of the P(VDF/TrFE) copolymers were changed as a function of substrate temperature and the VDF mol%. The Curie point and the melting point of P(VDF/TreFE) thin films decreased and increased with increasing substrate temperature, respectively. Also with increasing VDF mol%, the melting point decreased slightly, however the Curie point increased.

In the noncoherent methods for UWB-IR (ultra-wideband impulse radio), block coded modulation (BCM) is better than the transmitted reference (TR) systems in terms of the energy efficiency and data rate. However, even BCM suffers from the performance degradation in the presence of strong inter-frame interference and inter symbol interference. We propose the transmitted reference based on the BCM (TR-BCM) which is the hybrid system of TR and BCM. Performance evaluation shows that the performance of TR-BCM is better than that of BCM in the high SNR range.

The TR-CFT(Transversely Reinforced Concrete Filled Steel Tube) column is proposed to control or at least delay the state of local buckling at the critical section by wrapping the CFT columns with a carbon fiber sheet. In this study, an equation to determine the flexural strength of TR-CFT is proposed. The ACI-318 code, in which the contribution of the confining effect in the concrete filled steel tube is not appropriately accounted for, may be conservative. Therefore, flexural strength design equations for CFT columns and TR-CFT columns are proposed based on the concrete strain-stress curve, which contributes to the confining effect. Finally, the predicted results for the CFT and TR-CFT columns are shown to be in good agreement with actual test results.

The variation of electrical properties of (Ba, Sr)TiO$_3$[BST] thin films deposited of RuO$_2$electrode with (Ba+Sr)/Tr ration was investigated. BST thin films with various (Ba+Sr)/Tr ration were deposited on RuO$_2$/Si substrates using in-situ RF magnetron sputtering. It was found that the electrical properties of BST films depends on the composition in the film. The dielectric constant of the BST films is about 190 at the (Ba+Sr)/Tr ration of 1.0, 1,025 and does not change markedly. But , the dielectric constant degraded to 145 as the (Ba+Sr)/Tr ratio increase to 1.0. In particular, the leakage current mechanism of the films shows the strong dependence on the (Ba+Sr)/Tr ration in the films. At the ration (Ba+Sr)/Tr=1,025, the Al/BST/RuO$_2$ capacitor show the most asymmetric behavior in the leakage current density, vs, electric field plot. It is considered that the leakage current of the (Ba+Sr)/Tr=1,025 thin films is controlled by the battier-Iimited process, i,e, Schottky emission.

CFT (Concrete filled steel tube) column has become popular for building construction due to not only its composite effect but also economic effect. However, the conventional CFT column also has its own disadvantages having plastic buckling at the end of column followed by the reduction of strength by yielding of steel tube. An experiment on TR-CFT (Transversely reinforced CFT) column are conducted for making up for conventional CFT column's disadvantages. The experiment parameters are strength of concrete, the layer numbers of carbon fiber sheet. In this study, hysteretic curve, initial stiffness, strength, plastic deformation capacity, and dissipated energy are compared and analyzed between CFT and TR-CFT columns.
