Although 3D-complex fractionated atrial electrogram (CFAE) mapping is useful in radiofrequency catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), the directions and configuration of the bipolar electrodes may affect the electrogram. This study aimed to compare the spatial reproducibility of CFAE by changing the catheter orientations and electrode distance in an in -silico left atrium (LA). We conducted this study by importing the heart CT image of a patient with AF into a 3D-homogeneous human LA model. Electrogram morphology, CFAE-cycle lengths (CLs) were compared for 16 different orientations of a virtual bipolar conventional catheter (conv-cath: size 3.5 mm, inter-electrode distance 4.75 mm). Additionally, the spatial correlations of CFAE-CLs and the percentage of consistent sites with CFAE-CL<120 ms were analyzed. The results from the conv-cath were compared with that obtained using a mini catheter (mini-cath: size 1 mm, inter-electrode distance 2.5 mm). Depending on the catheter orientation, the electrogram morphology and CFAE-CLs varied (conv-cath: $11.5{\pm}0.7%$ variation, mini-cath: $7.1{\pm}1.2%$ variation), however the mini-cath produced less variation of CFAE-CL than conv-cath (p<0.001). There were moderate spatial correlations among CFAE-CL measured at 16 orientations (conv-cath: $r=0.3055{\pm}0.2194$ vs. mini-cath: $0.6074{\pm}0.0733$, p<0.001). Additionally, the ratio of consistent CFAE sites was higher for mini catheter than conventional one ($38.3{\pm}4.6%$ vs. $22.3{\pm}1.4%$, p<0.05). Electrograms and CFAE distribution are affected by catheter orientation and electrode configuration in the in-silico LA model. However, there was moderate spatial consistency of CFAE areas, and narrowly spaced bipolar catheters were less influenced by catheter direction than conventional catheters.

We have proposed and fabricated two lateral type field emission diodes, poly-Si emitter by utilizing the local oxidation of silicon (LOCOS) and GaN emitter using metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process. The fabricated poly-Si diode exhibited excellent electrical characteristics such as a very low turn-on voltage of 2 V and a high emission current of $300{\;}\bu\textrm{A}/tip$ at the anode-to-cathode voltage of 25 V. These superior field emission characteristics was speculated as a result of strong surface modification inducing a quasi-negative electron affinity and the increase of emitting sites due to local sharp protrusions by an appropriate activation treatment. In respect, two kinds of procedures were proposed for the fabrication of the lateral type GaN emitter: a selective etching method with electron cyclotron resonance-reactive ion etching (ECR-RIE) or a simple selective growth by utilizing $Si_3N_4$ film as a masking layer. The fabricated device using the ECR-RIE exhibited electrical characteristics such as a turn-on voltage of 35 V for $7\bu\textrm{m}$ gap and an emission current of~580 nA/l0tips at anode-to-cathode voltage of 100 V. These new field emission characteristics of GaN tips are believed to be due to a low electron affinity as well as the shorter inter-electrode distance. Compared to lateral type GaN field emission diode using ECR-RIE, re-grown GaN emitters shows sharper shape tips and shorter inter-electrode distance.

Globalization, industrialization, mining, and uncontrolled population growth have fostered a shortage of potable water. Therefore, it has become imperative to understand an effective and reasonable water purification technique. A renewed interest in electrocoagulation (EC) has been spurred by the search for reliable, cost-effective, water-treatment processes. This paper has elucidated a technical approach for getting rid of heavy metals and total suspended solids (TSS) from synthetic water using an aluminum electrode. The effect of operational parameters, such as current density, inter-electrode distance, operating time, and pH, were studied and evaluated for maximum efficiency. This study corroborates the correlation between current density and removal efficiency. Neutral pH and a low electrode gap have been found to aid the efficacy of the EC setup. The outcome indicates that a maximum TSS removal efficiency of 76.6% occurred at a current density of $5.3mA/cm^2$ during a contact time of 30 min. In the case of heavy metals remediation, 40 min of process time exhibited extremely reduced rates of 99%, 59.2%, and 82.1%, for Cu, Cr, and Zn, respectively. Moreover, kinetic study has also demonstrated that pollutants removal follows first-and second-order model with current density and EC time being dependent.

전기화학적으로 용량이 큰 활물질을 얻기 위한 수단으로 니들 코크스를 $NaClO_3$과 70 wt%의 $HNO_3$으로 구성된 수용액을 이용하여 산화처리를 하였다. $NaClO_3$/니들 코크스의 질량비가 7.5배인 수용액에서 산화 처리한 결과, 니들 코크스는 산화흑연 구조로 상변이가 일어나고, 또한 산소의 함유량의 증가와 함께 층간거리는 $6.9{\AA}$으로 확대되었다. 한편, 산화 니들 코크스의 전기이중층 커패시터용 분극 전극으로서의 전기화학적 특성은 acetonitrile의 용매에 각각 1.2 M의 TEABF4 (tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate)와 $TEABF_4$ (triethylmethylammonium tetrafluoroborate)의 전해질이 함유된 유기용액을 각각 사용하여 조사하였다. 1.2 M $TEABF_4$/acetonitrile의 전해액을 사용한 커패시터 셀은 1.2 M $TEABF_4$/acetonitrile의 전해액을 사용한 커패시터 셀에 비해 전극저항은 $0.05{\Omega}$로 낮았고, 2 전극 기준으로 0~2.5 V에서 측정한 용량 및 부피 당 용량은 32.0 F/g와 25.5 F/mL으로 높은 수치를 나타내었다. 이러한 전기화학적 거동을 천연흑연 구조에서의 층간 거리와 전해질의 양이온 크기와의 상관관계로 논의하였다.

산화처리 탄소로부터 상분해시킨 코크스의 구조 및 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였고, KOH 활성화 코크스와 비교하였다. $NaCLO_3$/니들 코크스의 비율이 7.5 이상의 조건에서 산화처리를 행한 graphene 층간 구조를 가진 니들 코크스($d_{002}=3.5{\AA} $)는 산화흑연 구조로 상변화가 일어나고, 이 때 산소함량의 증가와 함께 층간 간격은 $6.9{\AA} $으로 증가하였다. 산화처리 탄소를 $200^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 건조를 하면 상분해가 일어나서 다시 graphene 층간 구조로 복원하고, 층간 간격은 $3.6{\AA} $으로 감소하였다. 그러나, KOH 활성화 과정에서 니들 코크스의 층간 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 한편, 1차 충전에서 전해질 이온들에 의한 상분해 코크스에의 침입은 1.0 V에서 일어나고, 이는 KOH 활성 코크스보다 작은 수치이다. 상분해 코크스를 이용한 커패시터 셀은 1 kHz에서 $0.57{\Omega}$의 내부저항을 나타내고, 2 전극 시스템에서 0~2.5 V 범위 내에서 측정한 상분해 코크그의 중량 또는 전극 부피 당 용량은 각각 30.3 F/g과 26.9 F/mL을 나타내었고, 이들 특성은 KOH 활성 코크스보다 우수하였다. 상분해 코크스의 우수한 전기화학적 특성은 산화처리-상분해 과정에서의 층간 팽창-수축에 따른 층간 결함과 관련 있는 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 새로 고안된 방전 논리 게이트 PDP의 논리 게이트 입력인 DC 방전특성에 대해 고찰하였다. 새로 고안된 방전 논리 게이트는 방전 경로에 따른 전극사이의 전위차를 제어하여 논리 출력을 유도한다. 실험결과 이 DC 방전들의 안정성을 위해 프라이밍 방전을 인가한 경우가 인가하지 않은 경우에 비해 방전지연시간이 1/3로 단축되며 방전개시전압은 1/2로 감소하였다. 또한 이 프라이밍 방전에서 발생한 공간전하는 방전종료 후 $30[{\mu}s]$ 정도까지 영향을 미친다. 그리고 시간적, 공간적 거리변화에 파라 공간전하가 DC 방전에 미치는 영향을 측정한 결과, 주 방전에서부터 시간적으로 멀어지는 것보다 공간적으로 멀어지는 것이 주 방전의 영향에서 쉽게 벗어날 수 있음을 알았다. 그러므로 각 주사전극 마다 방전 논리 게이트들을 독립적으로 동작시킬 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다.

The Thin films were obtained by plasma polymerization of phenyl isothiocyanate. Polymerizations were carried out in rf(13.56 [MHz]) glow discharge generated in an inter-electrode capacitively coupled gas flow system. It was fecund that this monomer produces uniform films with a wide range of thicknesses, from hundreds of nanometers to tens of micrometers. The deposition rate appeared to be dependent on the substrate distance from the monomer inlet. The IR data revealed significant decrease in -NCS groups content in the polymer as compared with the monomer spectrum and indicated for the appearance of new absorption bands corresponding to the -CN and C-H aliphatic groups. The soluble fraction by GC was found to be composed of numerous low molecular-weight compounds.

A new electric application method was developed to prepare epoxy/organoclay nanocomposite for the electrical insulation in the AC electric fields and it could be also used in the field of various viscous polymer/organoclay systems. The applied AC electric field condition was as follows; (1) inter-electrode distance: 40 mm, (2) application voltage: 3-11 kV, (3) frequency: 60~1,000 Hz, and (4) application time: 0~60 min. To characterize the epoxy/clay nanocomposite, WAXS and TEM analyses were confirmed. In order to explain how the organic modifier affects the exfoliation phenomena, a mechanism of the oscillating collision of the quaternary ammonium head was proposed and the effects of the AC voltage and frequency and the organoclay content were studied.
