This paper investigated a new type of low voltage threshold switch (LVTS). As distinguished from the many other types of electronic threshold switches, the LvTS is ; voltage controlled, occurs at low voltages ($V_{2}$ $O_{5}$lV devices. The average low threshold voltage < $V_{LVT}$>=218 mV (standard deviation =24mV~kT/q, where T=300K), and was independent of the device area (x100) and amorphous oxide occurred in an ~22.angs. thick interphase of the V/amorphous- $V_{2}$ $O_{5}$ contacts. At $V_{LVT}$ there was a transition from an initially low conductance (OFF) state into a succession of quantized states of higher conductance (ON). The OFF state was spatically homogeneous and dominated by tunneling into the interphase. The ON state conductances were consistent with the quantized conductances of ballistic transport through a one dimensional, quantum point contact. The temeprature dependence of $V_{LVT}$, and fit of the material parameters (dielectric function, barrier energy, conductivity) to the data, showed that transport in the OFF and ON states occurred in an interphase with the characteristics of, respectively, semiconducting and metallic V $O_{2}$. The experimental results suggest that the LVTS is likely to be observed in interphases produced by a critical event associated with an inelastic transfer of energy.rgy.y.rgy.

21C 산업의 발전과 더불어 급증하고 있는 가스산업은 사용의 편리성과 위험성을 공존하고 있다. 특히 근대 산업혁명 이후 에너지 및 환경에 대한 문제가 두각을 나타내게 되었다. 따라서 환경친화적인 에너지원으로서 가스의 수요가 날로 급증하고 있다. 가스의 수요와 더불어 가스보일러의 설치 및 사용이 늘어나면서 보일러 폐가스(CO)에 의한 인명피해가 해마다 증가하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문의 목적은 보일러 곡관 배기통의 길이에 따른 CO농도의 고찰을 통하여 인체에 대한 위해성을 파악코자 함이다. CO의 허용농도인 50ppm에 해당하는 길이는 3곡관 1m에서 3분이 경과할 경우이다. 또한, 5m에서는 5분 경과부터 CO농도가 허용농도를 초과하는 것으로 나타났다. 특이하게 2m부터 4m까지는 CO농도가 허용농도 이하였다.

Creep behavior of the squeeze infiltrated AS52 Mg matrix composites reinforced with 15 vol% of aluminum borate whiskers($Al_{18}B_4O_{33}w$) fabricated squeeze infiltration method was investigated. Microstructure of the composites was observed as uniformly distributed reinforcement in the matrix without any particular defects of casting pores etc.. Creep test was carried out at the temperature of 150 and $200^{\circ}C$ under the applied stress range of 60~120 MPa. The creep resistance of the composite was significantly improved comparing with the unreinforced AS52 Mg alloy. The creep behavior of composites might be interpreted with the substructure invariant model successfully for the composite. Threshold stress of the composite exist for the creep deformation of the composite. The analysis of the creep behavior of the composite with threshold stress indicated that creep deformation was controlled by the lattice diffusion process of AS52 Mg matrix at given effective stresses and temperatures. Activation energy was also calculated to check lattice diffusion controlled creep behavior of the composite.

Pulse electric field induced electron emission from ferroelectrics has been studied with Pb$(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3$ ceramics with varying Zr/Ti ratio from 35/65 to 65/35, Electron emission was proved to be concentrated on the electrode edge by emission profile test and emission capture photographs. The 65/35 composition showed largest emission charge in lowest field and lowest emission threshold field. The emission characteristics are closely dependent on their ferroelectric properties in hysteresis curve. Electron emission charge increases with the polarization charge and emission threshold voltage is dependent on coercive field regardless of their composition. But dielectric constant has little relation with emission property. Electron emission charge increases exponentially with pulse electric field irrespective of composition. On the assumption that the surface potential is linear with the pulse electric field, electron emission can be regarded as a field emission at the electrode edge using Fowler-Nordheim plot of ln$(Q_e/E_{fe})$ to $1/E_{fe}$.

국재에서 성장 가공시킨 Nd:YAG 결정을 사용한 발진기를 설계제작하였다. 이로부터 발진동작, Q-스위칭, 출력광속의 위상파면 등을 조사하였으며, 다음으로 단일 경로 이득을 측정하였다. 츨력경의 반사율의 변화에 따르는 문턱 입력에너지를 결정하고 이로부터 단일 경로 이득을 계산하였다. 한편 레이저와 발진기 증폭기를 사용하는 보편적인 방법에 의하여 단일 경로 이득을 측정하여 비교 검증하였다. Q-스위칭 레이칭 레이저 최대출력은 1.5MW이고, 펄스폭은 30ns이었으며, 문턱 에너지에서 이득은 0.0958 cm-1 이었다. 실험과정에서 똑같은 사양의 외국산 Nd:YAG 결정에 의한 비교실험을 동시에 수행하였으며, 이로부터 국산 레이저 Nd3+:YAG결정의 레이저 발진 특성이 우수함을 확신할 수 있었다.

In this paper, an analytic model of a sleep mode operation in the IEEE 802.16e is investigated. A mobile subscriber station(MSS) goes to sleep mode after negotiations with the base station(BS) and wakes up periodically for a short interval to check whether there is downlink traffic to it. If the arrival of traffic is notified, an MSS returns to wake mode. Otherwise, it again enters increased sleep interval which is double as the previous one. In order to consider the situation more practically, we propose the sleep mode starting threshold, during which MSS should await packets before it enters the sleep mode. By modifying the M/G/l with multiple vacations model, energy consumption ratio(ECR) and average packet response time are calculated. Our analytic model provides potential guidance in determining the optimal parameters values such as sleep mode starting threshold, minimal sleep and maximal sleep window.

This paper presents a power and area efficient SAR ADC for multi-channel near threshold-voltage (NTV) applications such as neural recording systems. This work proposes a split dual-capacitive-array (S-DCA) structure with shifted input range for ultra low-switching energy and architecture of multi-channel single-ended SAR ADC which employs only one comparator. In addition, the proposed ADC has the same amount of equivalent capacitance at two comparator inputs, which minimizes the kickback noise. Compared with conventional SAR ADC, this work reduces the total capacitance and switching energy by 84.8% and 91.3%, respectively.

Recently micromachining using DPSSL(Diode Pumped Solid State Laser) with 3rd harmonic wavelength is actively studied in laser machining area. Micromachining using DPSSL have outstanding advantages as UV source comparing with excimer laser in various aspect such a maintenance cost, maskless machining, high repetition rate and so on. In this study micro-drilling of PCB type substrate which consists of Cu-PI-Cu layer was performed using DPSS Nd:YAG laser(355nm, wavelength) in vector scanning method. Experimental and numerical method(Matlab simulation, FEM) are used to optimize process parameter and control machining depth. The man mechanism of this process is laser ablation. It is known that there is large gap between energy threshold of copper and that of PI. Matlab simulation considering energy threshold of material is performed to effect of duplication of pulse and FEM thermal analysis is used to predict the ablation depth of copper. This study could be widely used in various laser micromachining including via hole microdrilling of PCB, and micromachining of semiconductor components, medical parts and printer nozzle and so on.

본 논문은 직접 대역 확산(Direct sequence spread spectrum : DS-SS) 시스템에서 적응형 임계값을 적용하여 초기 동기 성능을 향상 시키는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 탐색 모드(search mode) 이전에 프리덤프 모드(pre-dump mode)를 추가하고, 상관 에너지를 이용해 탐색 모드와 확인 모드(verification mode)의 임계값을 결정한다. 이를 통해 확인 모드뿐만 아니라 탐색 모드에서까지 거부 성능(rejection performance)을 향상시킬 수 있다. 제안된 방법은 기존 기술과 비교할 때 하드웨어 증가 없이 평균 코드 획득 시간(mean code acquisition time)을 약 40% 단축시킬 수 있다.

The Jordan Research and Training Reactor (JRTR) is the first research reactor in Jordan, the commissioning of which is ongoing. The reactor is a 5-MWth, open-pool type, light-water-moderated, and cooled reactor with a heavy water reflector system. The neutron measurement system (NMS) applied to the JRTR employs a wide-range fission chamber that can cover from source range to power range. A high-sensitivity boron trifluoride counter was added to obtain more accurate measurements of the neutron signals and to calibrate the log power signals; the NMS has a major role in the entire commissioning stage. However, few case studies exist concerning the application of the NMS to a research reactor. This study introduces the features of the NMS and the boron trifluoride counter in the JRTR and shares valuable experiences from lessons learned from the system installation to its early commissioning. In particular, the background noise relative to the signal-to-noise ratio and the NMS signal interlock are elaborated. The results of the count rates with the neutron source and the effects of the discriminator threshold are summarized.
