  • An in-hole seismic tests, which has been developed for measuring dynamic properties of soils and rock mass, is a bore hole seismic method that has cost effectiveness and practicality. The upgraded features include the motorized triggering system rather than the manual prototype version in the previous studies and a damper between source and receiver in the module. The performance of the probe has been verified through extensive cross-hole tests and in-hole tests at various sites. The dynamic stiffness of subsurface materials and rock mass have been evaluated and recently, the measurement of shear wave velocity was successfully adopted at horizontal holes of tunnel-face to install explosives. So the application of in-hole seismic test for various soil materials was certified.

  • Enhanced bandwidths of the GPS microstrip patch antennas applied by a Wilkinson power divider and a quadrature hybrid were compared. The square patch was designed, and fed by the two port probes for the circuit application. The Wilkinson power divider and quadrature hybrid circuit were designed, and applied to the patch antenna. The designed patch and two circuits were implemented on the FR4 board, and combined together. The measurement of the bandwidth within a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 2: 1 were 36.5% (1,200~1,775 MHz) in the case of the Wilkinson power divider and 29.84% (1,230~1,700 MHz) in the case of the quadrature hybrid. Axial ratios (AR) in 3dB were 17.14% bandwidth (1,360~1,630 MHz) and 15.87% bandwidth (1,400~1,650 MHz), respectively. The application of the Wilkinson power divider is wider than that of the quadrature hybrid. The peak gains in the anechoic chamber at the GPS center frequency were measured as 2.84 dBi and 2.75 dBi, respectively.

  • The selective patterning of a carbon nanotube (CNT) forest on a Si substrate has been performed using a femtosecond laser. The high shock wave generated by the femtosecond laser effectively removed the CNTs without damage to the Si substrate. This process has many advantages because it is performed without chemicals and can be easily applied to large-area patterning. The CNTs grown by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) have a catalyst cap at the end of the nanotube owing to the tip-growth mode mechanism. For the application of an electron emission and biosensor probe, the catalyst cap is usually removed chemically, which damages the surface of the CNT wall. Precise control of the femtosecond laser power and focal position could solve this problem. Furthermore, selective CNT cutting using a femtosecond laser is also possible without any phase change in the CNTs, which is usually observed in the focused ion beam irradiation of CNTs.

  • Low-temperature grown (LTG) InGaAs epilayers were grown by MBE technique for studying a correlation between terahertz (THz) emission and the intrinsic defects. The 1.2-um-thick Be-compensated LTG-InGaAs epilayers were prepared on SI-InP:Fe substrate at $200-250^{\circ}C$, and subsequently in-situ annealed under As environment at $550^{\circ}C$ for 5-30 minutes. The carrier concentration/mobility and the crystalline structure were analyzed by the Hall effect and the x-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively, and the carrier lifetime were determined by the fs time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy. THz generation from LTG-InGaAs was carried out by a Ti-sapphire laser (800 nm) of a pulse width of 190 fs at a repetition of 76 MHz. Figure shows the spectral amplitude of generated waves in the THz region. As the growth temperature of epilayer increases, the amplitude is enhanced. However, two samples grown at $200^{\circ}C$, as-grown and annealed, show almost no difference in the spectral amplitude. This suggests that the growth temperature is critical in the formation of defect states involved in THz emission. We are now investigating the correlations between the XRD band attributed to defects, the Hall parameter, and the spectral amplitude of generated THz wave.

  • Objective: This research measured physiological and psychological effects of Vibroacoustic stimulation(VA) to scapular and sacrum of supine position on the mattress. Background: When vibroacoustic stimulation applies to human body, it has a positive influence on physiological and psychological effects by stimulating the organs, tissues and cells of whole body. Method: This experiment was conducted to 10 normal males in two conditions: no stimulation and vibroacoustic stimulation. No stimulation experiment was executed as a supine position for 30 minutes without any vibrational stimulus, while vibroacoustic stimulation was transmitted by the vibrational speaker, which uses 40Hz frequency. Subjects had a laser Doppler flowmeter probe in scapular, sacrum, and also had 8 channel electroencephalogram(EEG) measurement sensor in the scalp. Blood pressure and skin temperature were measured in two conditions with an underlying posture for 30 minutes. Additionally, blood flow rate and EEG were measured before and after for two minutes on two conditions. Results: According to the vibroacoustic stimulation, blood flow rate and skin temperature were increased, while blood pressure was decreased. When using vibroacoustic stimulation compared to no stimulation, blood flow rate went approximately two times higher, and skin temperature also higher 3~4 times. Furthermore, the relative alpha power of brain wave was significantly increased when we applied to vibroacoustic stimulation. Conclusion: This experiment tested the VAT embedded in mattress in two conditions. According to this experiment, VAT decreases blood pressure, improves not only a physiological effect on blood flow rate as well as skin temperature, but also psychological functions by increasing relative alpha power. Application: The results of the publishing trend analysis might help physiological and psychological effects of vibroacoustic stimulation.

  • This paper presents the spectral analysis and radiation pattern of low-frequency electromagnetic(EM) leakage signals according to the fundamental operations of smartphones. The EM leakage signals generated by the activation of four I/O sensor modules such as a touch-screen, a camera, a microphone and a speaker are captured by the commercial near-field magnetic probe with 1cm spatial resolution. The analysis results show that the leakage of the EM wave occurs strongly around the activated I/O sensor modules, AP(Application Processor) and memory modules. Also, the distinguishable frequency characteristic is shown in each spectrum of EM leakage signals.

  • An actuator using piezoceramic material was designed in order to perform a flow control for flat plate flow. Boundary layer measurements were carried out to explore the flow disturbances by the designed actuator that was activated at low excitation frequency(15Hz). The mean velocity and fluctuation in the boundary layers were measured at $x/{\delta}^*=31.9$ downstream from the actuator tip by a one-dimensional hot-wire probe(55P14). Results reveal that low- and high-velocity regions were observed in the vicinity of the actuator center and in the outer area of the actuator respectively, and the formation of counter-rotating streamwise vortices was predicted. The fluctuations were persistently found in the outer part of the actuator and an inflection point in the spanwise gradient of the streamwise velocity was observed. Boundary layer instability was amplified at both the actuator excitation frequency and the T-S wave frequency when the actuator was excited at low frequency.

  • In order to utilize as a pre-ionization means for reproducible ohmic plasma on KAIST-TOKAMAK, a simple, safe, economical and continuous microwave source has been developed using a home kitchen micro-wave oven. The magnetron used in the study can provide 500 W of power at 2.45 GHz. A conventional magnetron in a home kitchen microwave oven generates microwave for 8 ms at every 16 ms periodically due to the periodic (60 Hz) high voltage applied to the magnetron cathode. In order to generate continuous microwave which is suitable for tokamak pre-ionization, the magnetron operation circuit has been modified using a DC high voltage (5 kV, 1 A) power supply. It provides high-voltage with small ripple for magnetron cathode bias. Using the developed magnetron system, electron cyclotron resonace heated (ECH) plasmas were produced and the characteristics of the system were studied by diagnosing the ECH plasma using Langmuir probe and $H_{\alpha}$ emission diagnostics.

  • The suppression of high-intensity blob structures in the scrape-off layer (SOL) by ion-cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) power, leading to a decrease in the turbulent fluctuation level, is observed first in the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) experiment. This suppression effect from ICRF power injection is global in the whole SOL at EAST, i.e. blob structures both in the regions that are magnetically connected to the active ICRF launcher and in the regions that are not connected to the active ICRF launcher could be suppressed by ICRF power. However, more ICRF power is required to reach the full blob structure suppression effect in the regions that are magnetically unconnected to the active launcher than in the regions that are magnetically connected to the active launcher. Studies show that a possible reason for the blob suppression could be the enhanced Er × B shear flow in the SOL, which is supported by the shaper radial gradient in the floating potential profiles sensed by the divertor probe arrays with increasing ICRF power. The local RF wave power unabsorbed by the core plasma is responsible for the modification of potential profiles in the SOL regions.
