Recently, the demand on mm-wave (millimeter-wave) applications has increased dramatically. While circuits operating in the mm-wave frequency band have been traditionally implemented in III-V or SiGe technologies, recent advances in Si MOSFET operation speed enabled mm-wave circuits realized in a Si CMOS technology. In this work, a 58 GHz CMOS LC cross-coupled VCO (Voltage Controlled Oscillator) was fabricated in a $0.13-{\mu}m$ Si RF CMOS technology. In the course of the circuit design, active device models were modified for improved accuracy in the mm-wave range and EM (electromagnetic) simulation was heavily employed for passive device performance predicttion and interconnection parasitic extraction. The measured operating frequency ranged from 56.5 to 58.5 GHz with a tuning voltage swept from 0 to 2.3 V. The minimum phase noise of -96 dBc/Hz at 5 MHz offset was achieved. The output power varied around -20 dBm over the measured tuning range. The circuit drew current (including buffer current) of 10 mA from 1.5 V supply voltage. The FOM (Figure-Of-Merit) was estimated to be -165.5 dBc/Hz.

In this paper, a MEMS tunable capacitor was successfully designed and fabricated using an aluminum nitride film and a gold suspended membrane with two air gap structure for commercial RF applications. Unlike conventional two-parallel-plate tunable capacitors, the proposed tunable capacitor consists of one air suspended top electrode and two fixed bottom electrodes. One fixed and the top movable electrodes form a variable capacitor, while the other one provides necessary electrostatic actuation. The fabricated tunable capacitor exhibited a capacitance tuning range of 375% at 2 GHz, exceeding the theoretical limit of conventional two-parallel-plate tunable capacitors. In case of the contact state, the maximal quality factor was approximately 25 at 1.5 GHz. The developed fabrication process is also compatible with the existing standard IC (integrated circuit) technology, which makes it suitable for on chip intelligent transceivers and radios.

U형 구조의 SGDBR (Sampled Grating Distributed Bragg Reflector) 레이저 다이오드를 설계하고, 시간 영역 시뮬레이션 방법으로 해석하였다. U형 구조의 SGDBR 레이저 다이오드는 SGDBR, 능동, 수동, TIR (Total Internal Reflection) 거울 영역들로 이루어져 있어서, 각 영역들 간의 결합 손실의 영향을 면밀히 고려하여야 한다. 설계된 U형 SGDBR 레이저 다이오드의 파장 가변범위는 1525 nm에서부터 1570 nm로서 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인하였다. 설계 튜닝 범위에서 완전한 레이저 다이오드 특성을 얻기 위해서는, 미러 영역에서의 손실은 약 2 dB 이하이고, 능동 및 수동 영역 간 butt 결합에서의 매질 간 굴절률 차이는 0.1 이하를 유지하도록 도파 구조가 설계되어야 한다.

This paper reports a tunable diode-pumped folded intracavity Q-switched singly resonant optical parametric oscillator based on multi-period MgO:PPLN. A wide tuning mid-infrared parametric light from 2.78 ㎛ to 4.17 ㎛ was obtained in real time by changing the poled periods and temperatures. The maximum output power of 1.89 W at 3.2 ㎛, 1.53 W at 3.5 ㎛, 0.87 W at 3.8 ㎛ and 0.486 W at 4.1 ㎛ were achieved. The highest optical-optical conversion efficiency was 7.89%. During experiments, a range tunable output of 2.78-4.17 ㎛ in the mid-infrared range was achieved.

양 단면 반사율과 단면 회절격자 위상, 위상 조정 영역의 위상이 두 개의 DFB 영역과, 가운데 위상 조정 영역을 가진 다중 영역 Index-Coupled DFB 레이저의 Self-Pulsation동작 특성에 미치는 영향을 수율 관점에서 살펴보았다. 결합세기가 작을수록 양 단면 반사율이 증가할 때 양 단면과 다른 DFB 영역에서 반사되는 필드가 모드의 특성에 미치는 영향이 커져 양 단면 회절격자 위상 변화에 따른 발진 모드의 호핑이 많이 발생하고 수율이 감소한다. 결합세기가 클수록 양 단면 반사율이 증가하여도 양 단면과 다른 DFB 영역에서 반사되는 필드가 모드의 특성에 미치는 영향이 작아 양 단면 회절격자 위상 변화에 따른 모드의 호핑은 적게 발생하나 Spatial Hole Burning 효과가 증가하여 수율이 감소하는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 결합세기에 상관없이 단면 반사율이 증가할수록 최대 수율과 수율이 40% 이상 되는 위상 조정 영역의 위상 범위가 감소함을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 결합세기가 클수록 위상 조정 영역의 위상 변화에 따른 수율의 변화가 커지고 단면 반사율의 변화에 따른 최대 수율을 주는 위상 조정 영역의 위상 값의 변화가 작음을 볼 수 있었다. 결합세기가 2와 3일 경우가 1.2와 4인 경우에 비하여 수율 특성이 좋음을 볼 수 있었다.

This paper presents the parameter study of multiple tuned liquid damper (MTLCD) applied to the 76-story benchmark building. A parameter study involves the effects of number of TLCD, frequency range, and central tuning frequency ratio, which are important parameters of MTLCD. The performance of MTLCD is carried out numerical analysis which reflects the nonlinear property of liquid motion. The parameters of TLCD exist different each optimal values according to mass ratio. The performance of single-TLCD (STLCD) is sensitive for tuning frequency ratio. Therefore, MTLCD is proposed to protect such the shortcoming of STLCD. The result of numerical analysis presents improved performance for robustness of MTLCD

In this paper, the method for navigation and obstacle avoidance of the autonomous mobile robot is proposed. The proposed algorithms are based on the fuzzy inference system which is able to deal with imprecise and uncertain information. The self-tuning algorithm, which adopts the simplex method, modifies the parameters of membership functions of the input-output linguistic variables by changing the support of these fuzzy sets according to the integral of absolute error(IAE) of the system response. The wall-follwing navigation and obstacle avoidance of the mobile robot are based on range data measured from the internal sensors(encoder) and the outer sensors(sonar sensor). In addition, the algorithm for the obstacle detection proposed in this paper is based on the expert's experience. Finally, the effectiveness of navigation and obstacle avoidance algorithm is demonstrated through simulation and experiment.

We demonstrate a wavelength swept mode-locked ring laser for the frequency domain optical coherence tomography(FD OCT). A laser is constructed by using a semiconductor optical amplifier, fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter and 2.6 km fiber ring cavity. Mode-locking is implemented by 2.6 km fiber ring cavity for matching the fundamental or harmonic of cavity roundtrip time to a sweep period. The wavelength sweeps are repetitively generated with the repetition period of 77.2 kHz which is the parallel resonance frequency of Fabry-Perot tunable filter for the low driving current consumption of the fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter. The wavelength tuning range of the laser is more than FWHM of 61 nm centered at the wavelength of 1320 nm and the linewidth of the source is $0.014{\pm}0.002$ nm.
