Polarized Fourier transform infrared (IR) absorption is used to probe molecular conformation in a ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) during the reorientation induced by the external field. Spectra of planar aligned cells of FLC W314 are measured as functions of IR polarizer orientation and electric field applied to the FLC. The time evolution of the dichroism of the absorbance due to biphenyl core and alkyl tail molecular vibration modes, is observed. Static IR dichroism experiments show a W314 dichroism structure in which the principal axis of dielectric tensor from molecular core vibration are tilted further from the smectic layer normal than those of the tail. This structure indicates the effective binding site in which the molecules are confined in the Sm-C phase has, on average, "zig-zag" shape and this zig-zag binding site structure is rigidly maintained while the molecular axis rotates about the layer normal during field-induced switching.

In this paper, we studied about the radiated emission of EFT(Electrical Fast Transient)/Burst signal, referenced IEC-61000-4-4 of the international EMC standard and its effect on EUT(Equipment Under the Test) when EFT/Burst signal (Conducted noise) induced on a power cable to EUT. Firstly, we set up test sample by the standard and +4 kV standard signal is induced by EFT/Burst signal generator with 1 m length power cable for 1 minute. Consequently, we found not only induced EFT/Burst signal along power line, but also directly radiated emission signal from EFT/Burst signal generator (Radiated emission noise of EFT/Burst). The radiated emission signal of EFT/Burst was 30 dB which is higher than limit of CISPR 22 which is international EMC standard. Moreover, we measured the electric field strength by changing distance from maximum radiated emission point to electric field strength tester. As a result, this electric field strength was 23 V/m which is higher than international EMC standard test level(CISPR 24). Therefore, it was confirmed that the probability of malfunction may be high when radiated emission of EFT/Burst noise exists near the EUT.

Signal shapes from a closed-ended coaxial HPGe detector are investigated by numerical methods. The detector used in this study has a volume of 72 ㎤ with relative efficiency of 15%. The electric field and potential distributions in the detector are determined by solving the Poisson equation at the depletion and operating bias. Hence the time dependent signal shapes induced on the electrode are obtained from the energy balance consideration and tv solving the equation of motion for the charge carriers. For various initial positions of a charge carrier pair, the collection times of induced charge vary in the range of 70 - 404 nsec.

We describe a novel method of scanning probe nanofabrication using a AFM(atomic force microscopy) tip with assistance of Femtosecond laser pulses to enhance fabrication capability. Illumination of the AFM tip with ultra-short light pulses induces a strong electric field between the tip and the metal surface, which allows removing metal atoms from the surface by means of field evaporation. Quantum simulation reveals that the field evaporation is triggered even en air when the induced electric field reaches the level of a few volts per angstrom, which is low enough to avoid unwanted thermal damages on most metal surfaces. For experimental validation, a Ti: sapphire Femtosecond pulse laser with 10 fs pulse duration at 800 nm center wavelength was used with a tip coated with gold to fabricate nanostructures on a thin film gold surface. Experimental results demonstrate that fine structures with critical dimensions less than ${\sim}10nm$ can be successfully made with precise control of the repetition rate of Femtosecond laser pulses.

When anesthetics were added to a bacteriorhodopsin (bR) in the purple membranes, the 570 nm absorption band shifts to 480 nm. This anesthetic-induced spectroscopic change is reversible. The apparent pKa (6.3) of this equilibrium depends on the nature of the anesthetics in which bR is dispersed. The electric orientation measurements showed that the native bR is easily achieved by relatively small electric field which is oriented at $60^\circ$, while anesthetic-treated bR is not the case. These results demonstrate that the subtle changes in the chromophore and the protein structure surrounding the chromophore by anesthetics influence the spatial orientation of the charged residues in the protein matrix surrounding chromophore.

A large-capacity wireless power system is a technology that transmits electric power of kW or more in a noncontact type. Electric cars, electric buses, and electric railways. In order to increase the power transmission efficiency, a resonance method using a frequency of kHz is applied and the efficiency is 80 ~ 90%. In this case, the loss is 10 ~ 20% other than efficiency, and corresponds to several hundreds of W to several kW in kW class wireless power transmission. 35 kW wireless feed system environment, and induced current in the nearby conductive part was measured. As a result of analysis, it was confirmed that induction phenomenon is higher as the loop configuration of the conductive part per area is dense. The increase of the induced current in the mesh loop is characterized by the density of the nearby conductive part having a permeability per unit area. The concentration of the magnetic field by the permeability is increased and the induction phenomenon causing the induction current is increased. It was confirmed that induction phenomenon increases by about 2.7 times when 9 times dense structure is formed.

This paper presents an efficient and accurate coupled beam model for piezoelectric bimorphs based on improved first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). The model combines the equivalent single layer approach for the mechanical displacements and a layerwise modeling for the electric potential. General electric field function is proposed to reasonably approximate the through-the-thickness distribution of the applied and induced electric potentials. Layerwise defined shear correction factor (k) accounting for nonlinear shear strain distribution is introduced into both the shear stress resultant and the electric displacement integration. Analytical solutions for free vibrations and forced response under electromechanical loads are obtained for the simply supported piezoelectric bimorphs with series or parallel arrangement, and the numerical results for various length-to-thickness ratios are compared with the exact two-dimensional piezoelasticity solution. Excellent predictions with low error estimates of local and global responses as well as the modal frequencies are observed.

A novel intravenous (IV) infusion monitoring sensor is presented to measure the drop rate in the drip chamber of an IV infusion set. It is based on a capacitive proximity sensor and detects the variation of the longitudinal electric field induced by the drop falling into the drip chamber. Unlike the conventional capacitor sensor with two semi-cylindrical conductor plates, the proximity sensor for IV monitoring is composed of a pair of conductor rings which are mounted on the outer surface of the drip chamber with a specific gap between them. The characteristics of the proximity sensor for IV monitoring were investigated through three dimensional electrostatic simulations. It showed quite superior performances in comparison with the conventional capacitor sensor. Especially, the proposed proximity sensor exhibits consistent sensitivity regardless of its mounting position on the drip chamber, operates normally though the drip chamber is tilted and shows robustness to the changes of the drop size and the drip factor of the IV infusion set. Thus, the proximity sensor for IV monitoring is more suitable for use in actual environment of IV therapy compared with the conventional capacitor sensor.
