The substrate bias effect on the current level of SOI-MOSFETs for high temperature operation has been investigated. In this work, we demonstrate the current level of SOI-MOSFETs can be controlled at different temperatures by applying a control bias to the substrate, showing that all current levels below T=150$^{\circ}C$ can be adjusted to a constant current level. 2D numerical simulation results show that substrate bias effectively controls the current conduction; as the substrate bias effectively lower the potential of the channel, inversion carrier generation is effectively controlled and consequently a constant current conduction level is achieved up to T=150$^{\circ}C$. We also demonstrate that the device simulated in this work has same operation at any temperature below T=150$^{\circ}C$ through mixed mode simulation.

When a velocity-aided strapdown inertial navigation system is loaded into a torpedo subjected to an extraneous force by the current, odometer measurement errors occur seriously. In order to compensate for navigation errors induced by large odometer biases, the Kalman Filter with separate bias estimator is applied, which separately estimates an unknown bias, and corrects the state estimate produced by the bias-free Kalman Filter to reflect the effect of the bias estimate.

This paper presents a velocity regulation scheme for a DC motor subjected to random torque and velocity measurement noises of white noise type as well as unknown constant load torque (bias). The scheme separately estimates an unknown bias in addition to state estimation by the bias-free Kalman Filter, and reflects the effect of the bias estimate to the armature input voltage such that velocity variations be regulated. It is shown via computer simulations that the performance of the present scheme is superior to that of the conventional analog PI regulator.

본 논문에서는 gate와 drain bias stress하에서의 a-IGZO thin-film transistors (TFTs)의 비대칭 열화 메커니즘 분석을 진행하였다. Gate와 drain bias stress하에서의 a-IGZO TFT의 열화 현상은 conduction band edge 근처에 존재하는 oxygen vacancy-related donor-like trap의 발생으로 예상되며, TFT의 channel layer 내에서의 비대칭 열화현상은 source의 metal과 a-IGZO layer간의 contact에 전압이 인가되었을 경우, reverse-biased Schottky diode에 의한 source 쪽에서의 높은 electric field가 trap generation을 가속화시킴으로써 일어나는 것임을 확인할 수 있었다.

The effects of bias stress on spin-coated zinc tin oxide (ZTO) transistors are investigated. Applying a positive bias stress results in the displacement of the transfer curves in the positive direction without changing the field effect mobility or the subthreshold behavior. Device instability appears to be a consequence of the charging and discharging of temporal trap states at the interface and in the zinc tin oxide channel region.

Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) and positive bias temperature instability (PBTI) are critical circuit reliability issues in highly scaled CMOS technologies. In this paper, we analyze the impacts of NBTI and PBTI on SRAM $V_{MIN}$, and present a design solution for mitigating the impact of NBTI and PBTI on SRAM $V_{MIN}$. Two different types of SRAM $V_{MIN}$ (SNM-limited $V_{MIN}$ and time-limited $V_{MIN}$) are explained. Simulation results show that SNM-limited $V_{MIN}$ is more sensitive to NBTI while time-limited $V_{MIN}$ is more prone to suffer from PBTI effect. The proposed NBTI/PBTI-aware control of wordline pulse width and woldline voltage improves cell stability, and mitigates the $V_{MIN}$ degradation induced by NBTI/PBTI.

A retrospective record-linkage study (RLS) based on medical records containing drug prescription histories involves immortal time bias (ITB). Thus, it is necessary to control for this bias in the research planning and analysis stages. Furthermore, a summary of a meta-analysis including RLSs that did not control for ITB showed that specific drugs had a preventive effect on the occurrence of the disease. Previous meta-analytic results of three systematic reviews evaluating the association between statin intake and gastric cancer risk showed that the summary hazard ratio (sHR) of the RLSs was lower than 1 and was statistically significant. We should consider the possibility of ITB in the sHR of RLSs and interpret the results carefully.

In this paper, a design of planar microwave bias-tee using lumped elements was presented. The bias-tee is composed of 2 blocks; DC block and RF choke. For this design of the bias-tee, a wideband capacitor was used for DC block. For a RF choke, a series connection of inductors which have different SRFs is used for a RF choke. In the RF choke, a series connection of resistor and capacitor was added in shunt to eliminate a loss from a series resonance. The designed bias-tee was implemented by using 1608 SMT chip components. The fabricated bias-tee was measured using Anritsu 3680K fixture which enables to remove an effect of a connector. The fabricated bias-tee presented -15 dB of return loss and -1.5 dB insertion loss at 10 MHz~18 GHz.

Objectives : This review aims to evaluate a risk of bias by risk of bias tool and RoBANS(Risk of Bias Assessment tool for Non-randomized Study) tool for clinical trial papers proving treatment effect of Korean medicines to alopecia and provides the newest reason of effectiveness of herbs to alopecia. Methods : Data were collected through electronic database including NDSL, KISS, KMBASE, Koreantk, OASIS, KoreaMed, KISTI, Pubmed, Cochrane CENTRAL and CINAHL. Two experts in Oriental Medicine assessed risk of bias of randomized controlled trials by Cochrane group's Risk of Bias tool and non-randomized controlled trials by RoBANS tool after searching, reviewing and selecting papers. Results : Total number of selected trials is 20 including 4 randomized controlled trial, 13 non-randomized controlled trials and 3 case reports. This study evaluate the risk of bias of 17 papers including 4 randomized controlled trials and 13 non-randomized controlled trials except 3 case reports by risk of bias tool and RoBANS tool. All papers of randomized controlled trials are evaluated unclear for random sequence generation and allocation concealment as there are no word on them. And all papers of non-randomized controlled trials are evaluated unclear for blinding of outcome assessments and relatively low for others. Conclusions : Korean medicine intervention can be an effective for treatment in alopecia. It was evaluated by hair density, thickness and expert panel assessment of photographs and all results are statistically significant. But enhancing levels of evidence, we must try to reduce bias in researches and report a safety, protocol and IRB.

In this study, the factors of confirmation bias that may occur in the initial user experience stage were analyzed using a honeycomb model by deriving user experience factors for each factor. In the initial user experience stage, confirmation bias occurs in the impression stage. At the processing stage of memory, sensory memory, working memory, and long-term memory, which stores and retrieves selective memory, were closely related. Confirmation bias was classified into visibility, correlation, memory, clarity, and universality in the usability part, and satisfaction, joy, and dissatisfaction were derived as emotional factors. As a result of the analysis with the honeycomb model, visuality, clarity, universality in the usability factor, and joy in the emotional factor had little effect on the confirmation bias, and satisfaction and dissatisfaction were analyzed as the main factors of the confirmation bias in the correlation, memory and emotional factors. This study is meaningful in that it can be usefully used as a reference material for companies that customize design patterns for the factor of confirmation bias.
