In this paper, an ion analyzer is used in conjunction with a Langmuir probe to study the chracteristics of ECR plasma such as the ion temperature, ion current density and electron temperature as the operating pressure, ${\mu}$-wave power and axial position change, Silicon etching has been performed with RF-biasing and its etching chracteristics have been discussed in terms of the ion energy distribution function. The maximum value of ion current density appears in the range of 10S0-3T mbar and the broadening of ion energy distribution function increases as pressure increases. Therefore, as pressure decreases, anisotropy increases but selectivity to photoresist decreases.

This work examines the effects of swelling MI type HVDC cable oil on the semiconductive silicone rubber and silicone rubber as used in accessories for application on outdoor termination (EBA) slip on sleeve. The behavior of volume resistivity is monitored as a function of the amount of cable oil diffused into the material. Resistivities of semiconductive silicone samples up to the typical insulator range (${\sim}10^{10}{\Omega}-cm$) are observed as a consequence of swelling due to the presence of the diffused oil. The measured volume resistivities of the oil-impregnated semiconductive silicone rubber are compared to desired value as function of stress relief cone.

Among many dimensional and dimensionless amplitude parameters, kurtosis (4-th normalized moment of probability density function) is generally regarded as a sensitive good parameter for machine diagnosis. However, higher order moment may be supposed to be much more sensitive. Bicoherence is an absolute deterioration factor whose range is 1 to 0. The theoretical value of n-th moment divided by n-th moment calculated by measured data would behave in the same way. We propose a simplified calculation method for an absolute index of n-th moment and name this as simplified absolute index of n-th moment. Some favorable results are obtained.

Spectroscopic ellipsometry(SE) was employed to characterize the Si/$Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ heterostructure. The dielectric function spectrum of $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ at an arbitrary x value in the spectral range of $1.5{\sim}4.5\;eV$ was computed by EMA (effective medium approximation) model using the available optical constants measured at a number of fixed x values of Ge composition. The thickness and the Ge composition of $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ measured by SE was compared with those measured by RBS. DC bias effect on the $E_2$ peak of dielectric function spectra was studied.

Purpose: Designing equipment for processing, sorting, and other post-harvest operations of agricultural products requires information about their physical properties. This study was conducted to investigate some of the mechanical and physical properties of Moringa oleifera L. pods and seeds. Methods: Properties such as the length, width, thickness, bulk density, porosity, mass, static coefficient of friction, and angle of repose were determined as a function of moisture content. Statistical data and force-deformation curves obtained at each loading orientation and moisture level were analyzed for bioyield point, bioyield strength, yield force, rupture point, and rupture strength using a testrometric machine. Result: The basic dimensions (length, width, and thickness) of moringa pods and seeds were found to increase linearly from 311.15 to 371.45 mm, 22.79 to 31.22 mm, and 22.24 to 29.88 mm, respectively, in the moisture range of 12 to 49.5% d.b. The coefficient of friction for both pods and seeds increased linearly with an increase in moisture content on all the surfaces used. The highest value was recorded on mild steel, with 0.581 for pods and 0.3533 for seeds, and the lowest on glass for pods, with a value of 0.501, and of 0.2933 for seeds on galvanized steel. The bioyield and rupture forces, bioyield and rupture energies, and deformation of the pods decreased with an increase in moisture content to a minimum value, then increased with further decrease within the moisture content range, while the yield force increased to a maximum value and then decreased as the moisture content increased. Conclusion: These results will help to determine the most suitable conditions for processing, transporting, and storing moringa pods, and to provide relevant data useful in designing handling and processing equipment for the crop.

We present Photoluminescence (PL) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) image on InAs quantum dots (QDs) having different size which grown by Molecualr Beam Epitaxy (MBE). For different size QDs, analysis of the AFM profiles show that the density of QDs was the maximum value $(1.1\times10^{11}\textrm{/cm}^2)$ at 2.0 ML. In the spectra of QDs, it is found that the peak energy decreases with increasing dot size due to the effect of quantum confinement. Temperature dependence of PL intensities show that the PL is quenching and Red shift as the temperature increase. The FWHM range of 20K~180K is narrowing with increasing temperature. When temperature is over 180K, the line-width starts to in creases with increasing temperature. At last, temperature dependence of the integrated intensities were fit using the Arrehenius-type function for the activation energy. Fit value of the activation energy was increased with increasing QDs-size.

We evaluated the electrical properties of 37 multifilamentary jointed tapes processed by superconducting joint. In the superconducting joining method. a lap-joint was used. Tapes were selectively etched and exposed superconducting cores of the two tapes were brought into contact with each other and then only the joined region was uniaxially pressed in the range of 1,000 to 2,500 MPa. The current carrying capacity and n-value of the jointed tape were evaluated as a function of uniaxial pressure. The highest current carrying capacity and n-value were obtained to be 58%, 26% for the jointed tape to the tape itself.

In this study, an experiment was made using the function of comfuter simulation as to whether the phenomenon of color optical il-lusion takes place also in clothing on the humanbody, three-dimensional space, through the case study of the color illusing of Goethe Value. One fat woman was slected as the exper-imental subject. She was made to wear the ex-perimental clothing, and then frontal picture was projected of in the experimental clothing, which was sacanned into the computer. For the sake of color illusion effect, construct 5 clothing design line and Yellow(9), Black(0), Red(6), Green(6). The basic design and the experimental de-sign were made one pair, and the pictures totalled 20 pictures. The extimating panel con-sist of 25 panellers and extimate factors of 9-point Scale. All the date from the experiment were analyzed by ANOVA and DUNCAN'S MUL-TIPLE RANGE. As a result, the experimental design all showed a significant optical illusion without C group in comparision with the basic design.

Al-Cr-Zr nanocomposite metal powders were prepared by mechnical alloying (MA) in order to develop aircraft structure materials with lighter weight and lower cost than the conventional Ti and Ni alloys. The morphological changes and microstrutural evolution of Al-6wt.%Cr-3wt.%Zr nanocomposite metal powders during MA were investigated by SEM, XRD and TEM. The approximately 50$\mu$m sized Al-Cr-Zr nanocomposite metal powders has been formed after 20 h of MA. The individual X-ray diffraction peaks of Al, Cr and Zr were broadened and peak intensitied were decreased as a function of MA time. The observed Al crystallite size by TEM was in the range of 20 nm, which is a simliar value calculated by Scherrer equation. The microhardness of Al-Cr-Zr nanocomposite metal powders increases alomost linearly with increase of the processing time, reaching a saturation hardness value of 127 kg/$mm^2$ after 20 h of processing. The intermetallic compound phase of $Al_3Zr_4$ in the matrix was identifed by XRD and TEM.

The binarization algorithm frequently applies to one part of the preprocessing phase for a variety of image processing techniques such as image recognition and image analysis, etc. So it is important that binarization algorithm is determined by the selection of threshold value for binarization in image processing. The previous algorithms could get the proper threshold value in the case that shows all the difference of brightness between background and object, but if not, they could not get the proper threshold value. In this paper, we propose the efficient fuzzy binarization method which first, segments the brightness range of gray_scale images to 2 intervals to perform car license plate binarization and applies fuzzy member function to each intervals. The experiment for performance evaluation of the proposed binarization algorithm showed that the proposed algorithm generates the more effective threshold value than the previous algorithms in car license plate.
