This paper presents the design of a low-power, low area 256-radix 16-bit crossbar switch employing a 2D Hyper-X network topology. The Hyper-X crossbar switch realizes the high radix of 256 by hierarchically combining a set of 4-radix sub-switches and applies three modifications to the basic Hyper-X topology in order to mitigate the adverse scaling of power consumption and propagation delay with the increasing radix. For instance, by restricting the directions in which signals can be routed, by restricting the ports to which signals can be connected, and by replacing the column-wise routes with diagonal routes, the fanout of each circuit node can be substantially reduced from 256 to 4~8. The proposed 256-radix, 16-bit crossbar switch is designed in a 65 nm CMOS and occupies the total area of $0.93{\times}1.25mm^2$. The simulated worst-case delay and power dissipation are 641 ps and 13.01 W when operating at a 1.2 V supply and 1 GHz frequency. In comparison with the state-of-the-art designs, the proposed crossbar switch design achieves the best energy-delay efficiency of $2.203cycle/ns{\cdot}fJ{\cdot}{\lambda}2$.

The process parameter in optimized KOH alkali activation of soft carbon series coke material in high purity was set with DOE experiments design. The activated carbon was produced by performing the activation process based on the set process parameters. The specific surface area was measured and pore size was analyzed by $N_2$ absorption method for the produced activated carbon. The surface functional group was analyzed by Boehm method and metal impurities were analyzed by XRF method. The specific surface area was increased over 2,000 $m^2/g$ as the mixing ratio of activation agent increased. The micro pores in $5{\sim}15{\AA}$ and surface functional group under 0.4 meq/g were obtained. The contents of the metal impurity in activated carbon which is the factor for reducing the electrochemical characteristics was reduced less than 100 ppm through the cleansing process optimization. The electrochemical characteristics of activated carbon in 38.5 F/g and 26.6 F/cc were checked through the impedance measuring with cyclic voltammetry scan rate in 50~300 mV/s and frequency in 10 mHz ~100 kHz. The activated carbon was made in the optimized activation process conditions of activation time in 40 minutes, mixing ratio of activation agent in 4.5 : 1.0 and heat treatment temperature over $650^{\circ}C$.

ZnO 바리스터는 전기전자 장치에 비이상적인 써어지 혹은 잡음신호가 침입하는 것을 막기위해서 폭넓게 사용되고 잇다. 많은 연구자들은 저전압 바리스터를 제조하기 위해서 요러가지 방법을 제시하였다. 그렇지만 그러한 방법들은 6V이하의 동작 전압을 갖는 바리스터를 제조하기는 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 새로운 3-성분 종입자법으로 제조한 바리스터의 전도특성을 보고하고자 한다. 온도범위 20-150.deg.C 및 전류 범위 $10^{-8}$~$10^{-1}$A/$cm^{2}$에서 관찰된 바리스터의 전도특성은 측정전류가 증가함에 따라서 다른 기구를 갖는 3개의 영역으로 구분되었다. 측정전류가 $10^{-3}$ A/$cm^{2}$이하인 경우에 오옴전도 혹은 누설전류 영역으로 해석 할 수 있었다. 측정 전류가 $10^{-3}$ A/$cm^{2}$ 부근에서는 이중 쇼트키 장벽에 의한 전도로 해석할 수 있었으며 또한 $10^{-3}$ A/$cm^{2}$ 이상의 전류 영역에서는 턴넬 전도 전류로 해석 할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로 부터 3-성분 종입자법으로 저전압 바리스터를 제조하는 방법은 지금까지 보고된 어느 다른 방법보다도 우수하며 그 전도기구를 제시하였다.

In this study, $CuInS_2$ powders have been synthesized using polyol process of a mixture of copper nitrate, indium nitrate, and thiourea with various stoichiometric molar ratios in ethylene glycol at 196$^{\circ}C$. As boiling time goes by, the color of metal ion mixed solutions were changed transparent green to dark green and finally fumed to black by reduction of $OH^-$ radicals. The prepared powders were fully characterized by SEM, XRD and UV-Vis. The particle shape of black colored powders showed sphere with about 30 nm in particle size compared to those with dark green colored powders showed irregular shape with about 1 ${\mu}m$ in particle size. The XRD results showed highly crystallized $CuInS_2$. The UV-Vis spectra showed broad shoulder at 430 and 780 nm corresponding to 2.78 and 1.58 eV for the dark green colored one and black colored one, respectively.

The structural, electrical properties of Ga doped MgZnO transparent conductive oxide (TCO) films by ratio-frequency(RF) magnetron sputtering were investigated. Ga doped MgZnO TCO films were deposited on the sapphire substrates at $200^{\circ}C$ varying growth thickness 200 to 600 nm. The optical properties of Ga doped MgZnO TCO films were showed above 85% transmittance from 300 to 1000 nm region. In addition, the current density ($J_{SC}$) of $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ (CIGS) solar cells was improved by using the MgZnO:Ga films of 500 nm thickness because of outstanding electrical properties. The $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ solar cells with MgZnO:Ga transparent conducing layer yielded an efficiency of 9.8% with current density ($31.8mA/cm^2$), open circuit voltage (540.2 V) and fill factor (62.2) under AM 1.5 illumination.

We have made an investigation on the radial and azimuthal wave modes of full halo coronal mass ejections (HCMEs). For this, we consider 24 HCMEs which are simultaneously observed by SOHO and STEREO A & B from August 2010 to August 2012 when they were roughly in quadrature. Using the SOHO/LASCO C3 and STEREO COR2 A & B running difference images, we estimate the instantaneous apparent speeds of the HCMEs at 24 different position angles. Major results from this study are as follows. First, there are quasi-periodic variations of the instantaneous radial velocity with the periods ranging from 24 to 48 mins. Second, the amplitudes of instant speed variations are about a third of the projected speeds. Third, the amplitudes are found to have a weak anti-correlation with period. Our preliminary identification from SOHO observations shows that there are several distinct radial and azimuthal wave modes: m=0 (radial) for five events, m=1 for eleven events, m=2 for three events, and unclear for the other events. In addition, we are making a statistical investigation on the oscillation of 733 CMEs to understand their physical origins.

금속, 플라스틱, 유리 등의 재료 표면에 다양한 색상을 표현하기 위해 일반적으로 습식 도금을 많이 적용하고 있다. 하지만 습식 도금은 공정 수가 많을 뿐만 아니라 위험물질 및 오염물질을 많이 사용하기 때문에 산업사고, 환경오염 등을 야기 시킨다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 친환경적 방법인 물리적기상증착(PVD ; Physical Vapor Deposition) 방식의 한 종류인 스퍼터링(Sputtering)으로 색상을 구현하였다. PVD 방식의 증착은 습식 도금 방식에 비해 친환경적이며, 전처리에서 후처리까지 한 공정으로 가능하다는 점이다. 스퍼터링은 PVD의 다른 방식인 E-beam 방식에 비해 대량생산을 할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 양산형 스퍼터링 장비(${\Phi}1200mm{\times}H1400mm$)로 실험을 진행하였으며, 증착 물질은 Ti, Al, Cr 을 사용하였고, 반응성 가스(Reactive Gas) 로는 N2, C2H2 가스를 사용하였다. 전처리는 LIS (Linear Ion Source)로 식각(Etching) 하였고, 펄스직류전원공급장치(Pulsed DC Power Supply)를 사용하여 증착 하였으며, 증착시 기판에 bias (-100 V)를 인가 하였다. 그 결과 회색계열, 갈색계열 등 여러가지 색을 구현할 수 있었으며, 증착된 박막의 특성을 알아보기 위하여 색차계, 내마모 시험기, 연필경도 시험기를 사용하였다. 향후 후처리 공정으로 내지문(AF ; anti fingerprint coating) 박막 등과 같은 실용적인 박막을 증착할 계획이다.

C CdTe와 HgCdTe는 광전소자나 태양전지,x 선 및 y 선 감지 소자 그리고 적외선 감지소 자로의 웅용둥으로 인하여 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 광전소자를 제작함에 있어서 깊은 준위나 얄은 준위에 있는 몇들은 운반자 수명에 매우 큰 영향을 미치고 있음에도 불구하고 광전도도 측정에 의한 운반자 수명 연구에 대하여는 보고된 것이 별로 없다. 이에 본 논문에서는 CdTe 시료의 광전도도를 측정하여 운반자 수명 및 깊은 준위의 위치를 알아보았다 M MBE방법을 이용하여 CdTe 기판위에 In을 도핑한 CdTe를 성장하였다. 광전도 붕괴(PCD) 측정은 300 K에서부터 400 K까지 온도를 변화시켜주면서 측정을 하였고 광원으로서 G GaP- LED를 사용하였으며 전압 신호를 읽기 위하여 Tektronix 2430A 오실로스코프를 이용하 였다 .. Fig. 1. 에서 보인바와 같이 광전도 붕괴곡선은 접선으로 나타낸 하나의 지수 함수적 붕 괴(a2exp( -t/ r 2))보다는 설선으로 나타낸 두 개의 지수함수적 붕괴(alexp( νr 1)+a2exp( -νr 2)) 가 더욱 잘 실험결과와 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 것은 과잉 전하에 대한 깊은준위를 가 지고 있는 반도체물질에서 일반적으로 관찰되는 것으로 시료가 n 형이기 때문에 소수 운반자 인 정공의 벚에 의한 것으로 생각된다 .. Fig. 2. 에서는 운반자 수명의 온도에 대한 변화를 나타 낸 것이다. 온도가 증가함에 따라 운반자 수명이 감소하는 경항올 보이고 있으며 이것올 이용 하여 딪익 활성화 에너지를 계산 하여 본 결과 0.35 eV 와 0.43 eV염을 알수 있었다.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) strain Chinju99, which was previously isolated from piglets suffering from severe diarrhea was used to characterize the membrane (M) protein gene to establish the molecular information, and the results will be useful in elucidating concepts related to molecular pathogenesis and antigenic structures of PEDV isolates. The Chinju99 M gene generated by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) consisted of 681 bases containing 22.3% adenine, 22.3% cytosine, 23.1% guanine and 32.3% thymine nucleotides, and the GC content was 45.4%. It had some nucleotide mismatches from M gene of other PEDV strains, such as CV777, Br1/87, KPEDV-9, JMe2, JS2004-2 and LJB-03 with 97-99% nucleotide sequence homology to these strains. Also, it encoded a protein of 226 amino acids, which had some mismatches from those of CV777, Br1/87, KPEDV-9, JMe2, JS20004-2 and LJB-03, as the amino acid sequence homology showed a 97-98% to these strains. The Chinju99 had a very close relationship to the Japanese strain JMe2 for the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the M gene. The amino acids predicted from Chinju99 M gene consisted of mostly hydrophobic residues and contained three potential sites for asparagine (N)-linked glycosylation, two serine (S)-linked phosphorylation sites by protein kinase C, and two S- or threonine (T)-linked phosphorylation sites by casein kinase II.
