We have studied changes of coercivity $(H_c)$, exchange anisotropy field $(H_{ex})$ and MR ration in glass/Ta/NiFeI/CoI(t)/Cu/CoII(3/4 t)/NiFeII/FeMn spin valve structures by changing Ar pressure and thicknesses of Co layers using DC, RF sputtering methods. We obtained minimum coercivity of 2.8 Oe at 4 mTorr of Ar pressure, exchange anisotropy field of 50.0 Oe at 6 mTorr and 5.3 % of MR ratio at 10 mTorr. Also, we obtained 3.0 Oe of coercivity at 40 $\AA$ of CoI layer, 65.9 Oe at 13 $\AA$ and 4.7 % of MR ratio at 27 $\AA$ and 34 $\AA$ by changing the thicknesses of Co layers.

The total photosynthetic rate in leaf mustard lines, which was calculated as the sum of the photosynthetic rate and the respiration rate, was not significantly different from their photosynthetic rate. Plant height, standing of rosetteness, showed a similar change to its specific leaf area (SLA). With increasing the plant height, leaf density increased and leaf color was lighter. It was found that shoot dry weight of leaf mustard was more affected by respiration. Also, it was hypothesized that respiration occurred not only in the leaf but also the stem. It was found that mustard lines whose leaf density was low showed a higher shoot growth. From this result, it was concluded that selection of a leaf mustard line with a larger SLA and lower leaf thickness could be effective in increasing photosynthetic rate.

In this paper, a log periodic bow-tie dipole array (LPBDA) antenna for UWB communications is investigated. Bow-tie shaped dipole elements are used instead of general dipole elements for LPDA antennas and the input reflection coefficient and realized gain characteristics of the LPBDA as a function of a flare angle are analyzed. It turns out that as the flare angle of the bow-tie dipole elements is increased, the lowest operating frequency is shifted toward lower frequency and the operating frequency band is increased, but the average gain is decreased. However, the gain variation of the LPBDA is much decreased and the front-back ratio is improved compared to the LPDA. Standard LPDA and LPBDA with a flare angle of 13 degrees are fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.4 and a thickness of 1.6 mm. Measured gain for the LPDA ranges from 4 to 6.5 dBi at 3.1 to 10.6 GHz band, while that for the LPBDA is in the range of 4.2 to 5 dBi.

In this paper, the breakdown voltage of Pi-LDMOS (Partial isolation lateral double diffused metal oxide semiconductor) was analyzed by simulation. Breakdown voltage variation is investigated under various settings of Parial buied oxide(P-BOX) parameters(length, thickness, location) and their mechanism is specified. In addition, the change in on-resistance in the breakdown voltage and trade-off relationship was analyzed according to the change in the P-BOX parameter, and the Figure-of-merit(FOM) was calculated and compared. In proposed structure, Lbox=5 ㎛, tbox=2 ㎛, and Lbc=2 ㎛ showed the highest breakdown voltage of 138V, and Lbox=5 ㎛, tbox=1.6 ㎛, and Lbc=2 ㎛ showed the highest FOM. Compared to conventional LDMOS, the breakdown voltage is 123% and FOM is 3.89 times improved. Therefore, Pi-LDMOS has a high breakdown voltage and FOM, which can contribute to the improvement of the stable operating range of the Power IC.

The complex refractive index of Diamond-like Carbon (DLC) thin films, which can be applied to optical devices or electrical devices, have been determined using optical methods. DLC thin films are grown on Si(100) substrates and vitreous silica substrates respectively, using the technique of plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). The spectroscopic ellipsometry data($\psi$, $\Delta$) and the transmission spectra of these DLC films are obtained. These optical spectra are analyzed with the help of the Sellmeier dipersion relation and a quantum mechanically derived dispersion relation. Using spectroscopic ellipsometry data at their transparent region, the refractive index and the effective thickness of DLC films on vitreous silica are model calculated, Then the transmission spectra are inverted to yield the extinction coefficient spectra k(λ) at absorbing region. These spectra are fit to the quantum mechanical dispersion relation and the best fit dispersion constants are determined. The complex refractive indices are easily calculated with these constants. The spectroscopic ellipsometry data at the absorbing region in model calculated to give the packing densities and the degrees of surface microroughness of DLC films. Discussions are made in correlation with the growth condition of DLC films.

This paper presents the p-convergent coupling element on the basis of the ESSE(equivalent single layer shell element) and the PLLE(partial-linear layerwise element) to analyze laminated composite plates. The ESSE is formulated by the degenerated shell theory, on the other hand, the assumption of the PLLE is piecewise linear variation of the in-plane displacement and a constant value of lateral displacement across the thickness. The proposed finite element model is based on p-convergence approach. The integrals of Legendre polynomials and Gauss-Lobatto technique are chosen to interpolate displacement fields and to implement numerical quadrature, respectively. This study has been focused on the verification of p-convergent element. For this purpose, various finite element multiple models associated with the combination of ESSE and PLLE elements are tested to show numerical stability. The simple examples such as a cantilever beam subjected vertical load and a plate with tension are adopted to evaluate the performance of proposed element.

This paper presents the fabrication and performance evaluation of zinc oxide varistors for the arresters used for station system. ZnO varistors were fabricated with typical ceramic production methods and the structural and electrical characteristics were investigated. All varistors exhibited high density, which were in the range of $5.41{\sim}5.49g/cm^3$. In the electrical properties the reference voltage increased in the range of $4.410{\sim}5.250kV$ with increasing their thickness and the residual voltage exhibited the same trends as the reference voltage. In the long duration current impulse withstand test, E-2 and F-1 samples failed in the two and four shots, respectively, but E-1 and F-2 samples survived 18 shots during the test. Before and after this test, the variation ratio of residual voltage of E-1 and F-2 samples were -0.34% and 0.05%, respectively, which were in the acceptance range of 5%. According to the results of tests, it is thought that if the fabrication process such as insulating coating, sintering condition, and soldering method is improved, these ZnO varistors would be possible to apply to the station class arresters in the new future.

Effects of multilayer structure and annealing condition on the soft magnetic properties of sputtered Fe/CoNbZr multilayers were investigated. We observed a minimum coercivity (1.1 Oe) at 5 nm thick Fe layer and the maximum permeability (2300) at 15 nm Fe layer and high saturation magnetization in the as-deposited state. As a result of increase of Fe grain size, coercivity increases with increasing Fe layer thickness. Degradation of ${\mu}$ at the thin Fe layer region may be due to the intermixed phase of high magnetostriction, such as CoFe. Optimum annealing condition was obtained through annealing at 300 $^{\circ}C$ for 40 min (${\mu}$=2500, H$\sub$c/=0.35 Oe). Enhancement of permeability was observed in the temperature range of 250∼300$^{\circ}C$. These results may closely be related with lowering the anisotropy energy by lattice deformation (0.4%) and enhanced uniaxial anisotropy.

To obtain more accurate responses of laminated composite structures, the effect of transverse shear deformation, transverse normal strain/stress and a nonlinear variation of in-plane displacements with respect to the thickness coordinate need to be considered in the analysis. The improved higher-order theory is used to determine the deflections and natural frequencies of laminated composite structures. A quasi-elastic method is used for the solution of viscoelastic analysis of the laminated composite plates and sandwiches. Solutions of simply-supported laminated composite plates and sandwiches are obtained and the results are compared with those by the 3D elasticity theory and other theories. The improved theory proposed in this paper is shown to predict the deflections and natural frequencies more accurately than all other theories.

DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) films were deposited by ECR-PECVD (electron cyclotron resonance plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition) method with the variation of substrate bias voltage under the others are constant except it. We have investigated the ion bombardment effect induced by the substrate bias voltage on films during the deposition of film. The characteristics of the film were analyzed using the Dektak surface profiler, SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and Nano Indentation tester. FTIR spectroscopy analysis shows that the amount of dehydrogenation in films was increased with the increase of substrate bias voltage and films thickness was decreased. Raman scattering analysis shows that integrated intensity ratio $(I_D /I_G)$ of the D and G peak was increased as the substrate bias voltage increased, and films hardness was increased. From these results, it can be concluded that films deposited at this experimental have the enhanced characteristics of DLC because of the ion bombardment effect on films during the deposition of film.
