For highly scalable NAND flash memory applications, a compact ($4F^2/cell$) nonvolatile memory architecture is proposed and investigated via three-dimensional device simulations. The back-channel program/erase is conducted independently from the front-channel read operation as information is stored in the form of charge at the backside of the channel, and hence, read disturbance is avoided. The memory cell structure is essentially equivalent to that of the fully-depleted transistor, which allows a high cell read current and a steep subthreshold slope, to enable lower voltage operation in comparison with conventional NAND flash devices. To minimize memory cell disturbance during programming, a charge depletion method using appropriate biasing of a buried back-gate line that runs parallel to the bit line is introduced. This design is a new candidate for scaling NAND flash memory to sub-20 nm lateral dimensions.

In this paper, transient voltage response of Polmer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) stack is analyzed and voltage dynamic characteristic is modeled for optimal design of power conditioning system (PCS). According that the load is changed, the corresponding operating voltage of fuel cell stack is also varied with a certain deep and rising time due to the chemical and mechanical responses. This transient behavior can affect on the operation with respect of PI gain in controller, duty ratio, capacitor of capacitor and so on. So in this paper the detailed theoretical analysis of transient voltage dynamics is explained and the methodology of dynamic modeling is introduced. In addition, the validity and feasibility of the proposed dynamic model is verified by experimental results under various load conditions.

This paper is focused on the research of the ultra precision linear motor by using piezo stack actuators. The development of linear motor which can be controlled nano or micro scale is necessary for the precision manufacturing. Self-moving-cell principle is used for the design of linear motor Self-moving-cell linear motor is consisted of three cell structures, and each cell has two shells and one piezo-stack actuator. Each cell can do clamping and moving by two shell structures. The shell structure deformation by piezo stack actuator can move the linear motor by losing the clamping between the shall and guideway. This paper presents the design, manufacturing and test of the motor.

In this paper, an ultra low voltage SRAM design method based on dual-boosted cell bias technique is described. For each read/write cycle, the wordline and cell power node of the selected SRAM cells are boosted into two different voltage levels. This enhances SNM(Static Noise Margin) to a sufficient amount without an increase of the cell size, even at sub 1-V supply voltage. It also improves the SRAM circuit speed owing to increase of the cell read-out current. The proposed design technique has been demonstrated through 0.8-V, 32K-byte SRAM macro design in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. Compared to the conventional cell bias technique, the simulation confirms an 135 % enhancement of the cell SNM and a 31 % faster speed at 0.8-V supply voltage. This prototype chip shows an access time of 23 ns and a power dissipation of $125\;{\mu}W/Hz$.

This paper presents a design process of light-weighted fuel cell vehicle (FCV) frame to meet design target of natural frequency in early design stage. At first, using validated FE model for the current design, thickness optimization was carried out. Next. optimization process, comprised of beam model size optimization, shell model design and shell model thickness optimization, was investigated for two frame types. In addition, in order to ensure hydrogen tanks safety against rear impact load, structural collapse characteristics was estimated for the rear frame model finally produced from the previous optimization process and, with the target of equal collapse characteristics to the current design model, structural modification with small weight increase was studied through static structural collapse analyses. The same attempt was applied to the front side frame. The results explain that the proposed process enables to design light-weighted frames with high structural performance in early stage.

This paper presents the basic research for the design and fabrication of a 3D-printed load cell made of NCPC (nano-carbon piezo-resistive composite). We designed a structure that can resonate at a low frequency range of about 5-6 Hz with ANSYS using sensitivity analysis and a response surface method. The design was verified by fabricating the device with a low-quality commercial 3D printer and ABS filament. We conducted a feasibility test for a commercial sensor using 1000 cyclic load tests at 0.3 Hz in a material testing system. A manufacturing process for the 3D printer filament based on the NCPC was also developed using the nano-composite process.

The geometric nonlinearity has been successfully integrated with the design of steel structural system. Thus, the tubular lattice girder, one application of steel structural systems have already been optimized to obtain an economic design following the completion of computationally expensive design procedure. In order to decrease its computing cost, this study proposes to employ five multi-objective metaheuristics for the design optimization of geometrically nonlinear tubular lattice girder. Then, the employed multi-objective optimization algorithms (MOAs), NSGAII, PESAII, SPEAII, AbYSS and MoCell are evaluated considering their computing performances. For an unbiased evaluation of their computing performance, a tubular lattice girder with varying size-shape-topology and a benchmark truss design with 17 members are not only optimized considering the geometrically nonlinear behavior, but three benchmark mathematical functions along with the four benchmark linear design problems are also included for the comparison purpose. The proposed experimental study is carried out by use of an intelligent optimization tool named JMetal v5.10. According to the quantitative results of employed quality indicators with respect to a statistical analysis test, MoCell is resulted with an achievement of showing better computing performance compared to other four MOAs. Consequently, MoCell is suggested as an optimization tool for the design of geometrically nonlinear tubular lattice girder than the other employed MOAs.

A high efficiency polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack was developed for pressurized pure hydrogen and oxygen supplying conditions. The design objective for the cell stack was to maximize the electric efficiency and to minimize exhaust-gas emissions from it simultaneously. To achieve this objective, the cell stack was designed to use pure hydrogen and oxygen as fuel and oxidant, respectively, and to be operated under high gas inlet pressures and in a stage-wise dead-end operation mode. Major components constituting the cell stack, such as membrane electrode assembly, bipolar-plate, and gasket, have been developed to meet a target durability even in severe operating conditions: high gas inlet pressures and usage of pure oxygen. A high-power fuel cell stack was assembled using these components to verify the performance. The cell stack showed a good performance in terms of the efficiency and maximum power output.

Photoelectrochemical cell (PEC) is one of the attractive ways to produce clean and renewable energy. However, solar to hydrogen production via PEC system generally requires high external bias, because of material's innate electronic band potential relative to hydrogen reduction potential and/or charge separation issue. For spontaneous photo-water splitting, here, we design dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) and their monolithic tandem cell incorporated with a $BiVO_4$ photoanode. $BiVO_4$ has high conduction band edge potential and suitable band gap (2.4eV) to absorb visible light. To achieve efficient $BiVO_4$ photoanode system, electron and hole mobility should be improved, and we demonstrate a tandem cell in which $BiVO_4/WO_3$ film is connected to cobalt complex based DSSC.
