  • 본 연구에서는 멀티 레벨 플래쉬 메모리 셀의 프로그램 포화영역에서 트랩된 전하 손실 효과에 의한 데이터 보유 특성에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. Incremental Step Pulse Programming(ISPP) 방식에 의한 전압 인가 시 셀의 문턱 전압은 선형적으로 증가하다 일정 수준 이상의 전압에 도달하면 더 이상 증가 하지 않는 현상을 문턱 전압 포화 현상이라고 한다. 이는 프로그램 시 플로팅 게이트에 축적된 전하가 Inter-Poly Dielectric(IPD) 층을 통해 컨트롤 게이트로 빠져 나가는 것에 원인이 있다. 본 연구는 열적 스트레스에 의한 문턱 전압의 보유 특성이 선형 영역에서보다 포화 영역에서 심각하게 저하되는 현상의 원인규명에 대한 연구이다. 이를 평가하기 위해 프로그램 후 데이터 보유(data retention) 특성 평가 및 반복 읽기 측정을 진행하였다. 또한 여러 가지 측정 패턴을 이용한 측정 조건 분리 실험을 통해 검증하였다. 그 결과 포화 영역에서의 문턱 전압 저하 특성의 원인은 포화 시 가해진 높은 전압에 의해 플로팅 게이트와 컨트롤 게이트 사이의 인터 폴리 절연막 IPD 층의 질화막에 트랩된 전자의 손실 효과인 것으로 나타났다. IPD 층의 질화막에 전하 트랩 현상이 발생하고 열적 스트레스가 가해진 후 트랩된 전하가 다시 빠져 나오면서 문턱 전압의 저하가 발생하고 이는 소자의 신뢰성에 나쁜 영향을 미친다. 낸드 플래쉬 메모리 셀의 프로그램 포화 영역 문턱 전압을 증가시키기 위해서는 질화막에 트랩된 전하의 손실을 고려하여 플로팅 게이트의 전하저장 능력을 향상시켜야 하며 IPD 막에 대한 주의 깊은 설계가 필요하다.

  • 앞의 연구에서 우리는 진세노사이드가 신경세포에 존재하는 high-threshold voltage-dependent $Ca^{2+}$ channel을 억제한다는 것을 발표하였다. 그러나, 이러한 연구는 진세노사이드가 여러 칼슘 채널subtypes중 어느 특정 칼슘 채널만을 선택적으로 조절한다는 것을 보여주지는 않았다. 따라서 이 연구에서 우리는 여러 칼슘 채널subtypes에 선택적으로 작용하는 약물 혹은 toxins을 이용하여 진세노사이드가 어느 종류의 칼슘 채널 subtypes를 억제하는가를 bovine chromaffin cell을 이용하여 연구하였다. 사용한 물질은nimodipine(L-type 칼슘 채널 길항제), $\omega$-conotoxin GVIA (N-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel 길항제), $\omega$-agatoxin IVA(P-type 칼슘 채널 길항제)이었다. 연구 결과 진세노사이드는 bovine chromaffin 세포에 존재하는 high-threshold 칼슘 current을 투여 농도별로 억제하였다. $IC_{50}$/은 약 120 $\mu$g/ml인 것으로 나타났다. nimodipine은 진세노사이드에 의한 칼슘 currents억제 작용에 영향을 미치지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, $\omega$-conotoxin GVIA, $\omega$-agatoxin IVA 및 nimodipine+$\omega$-conotoxin GVIA+$\omega$-agatoxin IVA을 처리한 세포에서는 진세노사이드에 의한 칼슘 currents억제 작용이 현저하게 줄어 들었다. 이러한 연구 결과들은 진세노사이드가 L-type 칼슘 채널은 억제하지 않고, 주로 N-, p-, 및 Q-type칼슘 채널을 억제한다는 것을 보여주고 있다

  • Telecommunication services are distinctive in that their adoptions are influenced by network effect resulting in 'the late take-off Phenomenon' and the 'critical mass' problem. In this paper we examined, so called, 'the late take-off phenomenon' in the diffusion process of telecommunication services. We compared the parameters of the diffusion process of consumer durables with those of fax services in the US and Korea. By analyzing the parameters of a new diffusion model based on the threshold model proposed by Markus, We found that 'the late take-off phenomenon' resulted from the low heterogeneity of the threshold distribution for the potential adopters.

  • Effect of nitriding on fatigue crack initiation and growth rate has been studied in Ni-Cr-Mo steel. Specimens were nitrided at $860^{\circ}C$ for 15 hr. The fatigue limit of nitrided specimens were superior to those ofannea1ed($860^{\circ}C$, 15 hr) specimens. Based on detailed observations of slip band and micro crack initiation, it is concluded that the excellent fatigue limit of nitrided specimens is attributed to improved slip initiation resistance by nitriding. The characteristic of fatigue crack growth rate of nitrided specimens was investigated by comparing with those of annealed specimens. It was found that the crack growth rate was markedly decreased and the threshold stress intensity factor range was improved by nitriding. It is concluded that the excellent fatigue limit of nitrided specimens is also attributed to improved fatigue crack growth rate and threshold stress intensity factor range by nitriding.

  • We evaluated cell survivability by changing RLC value on HV impulse network. When the L value is changed from 0 to 10mH in this circuit. we found that cell survivability is shown large decline with 4mH of L value. I respect to this result, when waveshapes of oscillatory decay are presented along the variation of L value in RLC circuit, we analyzed whether discharge waveform properties have an effect on sterilization ratio, and measured threshold voltage as the minimum peak voltage of a single pulse which can sterilize cells. Finally, we found that the sterilization effect was related to number of threshold voltage waveforms being applied.

  • In this paper, we propose a postprocessing method that neatly removes blocking effect but retains visually important image details and edges. The iterative thresholded lowpass filter is basically a low pass filter whose ouput depends on three variable elements. I.e. iteration number, threshold value and passband width. The threshold value restricts the difference between the output of the proposed filter and the original input independent of the iteration number. With this property, the iterative thresholded lowpass filter can retain most of the image details while smoothing the block boundaries. The other two variable elements, i.e. iteration number and passband width, can determine the convergence speed of the proposed filter. In this paper, we also propose several adaptive filtering techniques based on the iterative thresholded lowpass filter with their simulation results.

  • Study was focused on the effect of the cooling rate on the embrittlement behavior of Zircaloy-4 cladding simulated Loss Of Coolant Accident (LOCA) environment. Claddings were oxidized at given temperature and given time followed by various water quenching in the range of $0.6^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$ per second. Cladding failed after water quenching above the threshold oxidation. Threshold oxidation was decreased as the cooling rate increased, which is due to the matensite structure formed during fast cooling rate.

  • In this paper, The relationship between device performance and channel length(1.5-50$\mu$m) in polysilicon thin-film transistors fabricated by SPC technology was Investigated by measuring electric Properties such as 1-V characteristics, field effect mobility, threshold voltage, subthreshold swing, and trap density in grain boundary with channel length. The drain current at ON-state increases with decreasing channel length due to increase of the drain field, while OFF-state current (leakage current) is independent of channel length. The field effect mobility decrease with channel length due to decreasing carrier life time by the avalanche injection of the carrier at high drain field. The threshold voltage and subthreshold swing decrease with channel length, and then increase in 1.5 $\mu$m increase of increase of trap density in grain boundary by impact ionization.
