Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are promising layered structure materials for next-generation nano electronic devices. Many investigation on the FET device using TMDCs channel material have been performed with some integrated approach. To use TMDCs for channel material of top-gate thin film transistor(TFT), the study on high-k dielectrics on TMDCs is necessary. However, uniform growth of atomic-layer-deposited high-k dielectric film on TMDCs is difficult, owing to the lack of dangling bonds and functional groups on TMDC's basal plane. We demonstrate the effect of remote oxygen plasma pretreatment of large area synthesized few-layer MoSe2 on the growth behavior of Al2O3, which were formed by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using tri-methylaluminum (TMA) metal precursors with water oxidant. We investigated uniformity of Al2O3 by Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Raman features of MoSe2 with remote plasma pretreatment time were obtained to confirm physical plasma damage. In addition, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was measured to investigate the reaction between MoSe2 and oxygen atom after the remote O2 plasma pretreatment. Finally, we have uniform Al2O3 thin film on the MoSe2 by remote O2 plasma pretreatment before ALD. This study can provide interfacial engineering process to decrease the leakage current and to improve mobility of top-gate TFT much higher.

Interfacial engineering approaches as an efficient strategy for improving the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of inverted polymer solar cells (iPSCs) has attracted considerable attention. Recently, polymer surface modifiers, such as poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) and polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE), were introduced to produce low WF electrodes and were reported to have good electron selectivity for inverted polymer solar cells (iPSCs) without an n-type metal oxide layer. To obtain more efficient solar cells, quantum dots (QDs) are used as effective sensitizers across a broad spectral range from visible to near IR. Additionally, they have the ability to efficiently generate multiple excitons from a single photon via a process called carrier multiplication (CM) or multiple exciton generation (MEG). However, in general, it is very difficult to prepare a bilayer structure with an organic layer and a QD interlayer through a solution process, because most solvents can dissolve and destroy the organic layer and QD interlayer. To present a more effective strategy for surpassing the limitations of traditional methods, we studied and fabricated the highly efficient iPSCs with mono-layered QDs as an effective multi-functional layer, to enhance the quantum yield caused by various effects of QDs monolayer. The mono-layered QDs play the multi-functional role as surface modifier, sub-photosensitizer and electron transport layer. Using this effective approach, we achieve the highest conversion efficiency of ~10.3% resulting from improved interfacial properties and efficient charge transfer, which is verified by various analysis tools.

현대미학의 논의는 뉴미디어의 등장으로 인한 예술과의 상호 관계, 즉 매체에 대한 새로운 미학적 해석으로 시작된다. 과거 선형적 사고체계의 문자시대와 비교할 때 매체는 반드시 현존을 증거하는 수단에 불과하였으나 이제 그것은 디지털 미디어 환경에 있어서 그 자체로서 하나의 창조적 행위이며 그 안에 미적 관념 자체를 내포하고 있는 역동체인 것이다. 매체 미학의 대표적인 이론가인 볼츠는 새로운 매체 시대의 예술은 '이미지의 복제'가 아니라 '이미지의 변형'이 주요한 관건이며, 이 예술형식은 대상에 대한 이미지를 전달하는 것이 아닌 그 자체만이 존재하는 대상 없는 이미지가 중심을 이루어지므로 결국 비선형적인 사고체계가 지배하는 기술적 환경에서의 창의성이란 선택적 테크닉의 한 효과라고 주장한다. 본 논문은 컴퓨터 환경의 레이어(layer)가 그러한 이미지 변형의 핵심적인 기술중심의 예라고 상정하고 위에서 언급된 매체 미학적 관점들을 검증하고자 했으며, 나아가 작업자인 디자이너의 창작과정에 그것이 어떤 직접적인 영향을 미치고 있는가를 밝히고자 시도하였다. 이는 새로운 시대의 미학적 개념은 새로운 미디어가 지배하는 '디자인의 과학'으로 정의되어야 한다고 하는 볼츠의 매체미학과의 조우를 통해서 디자인의 학문으로서의 이론적 토대를 확장시키고자 하는 노력의 일환으로 말할 수 있다.

We present a piezoelectric actuator using stiffness control and stroke amplification mechanism in order to make large lateral displacement. In this work, we suggest stiffness control approach that generates lateral displacement by increasing the vertical stiffness and reducing the lateral stiffness using additional structure. In addition, an additional structure of a serpentine spring amplifies the lateral displacement like leverage structure. The suggested lateral PZT actuator (bellows actuator) consists of serpentine spring and PZT/electrode layer which is located at the edge of the serpentine spring. The edge of the serpentine spring prevents the vertical motion of PZT layer, while the other edge of the serpentine spring makes stroke amplification like leverage structure. We have determined dimensions of the bellows actuator using ANSYS simulation. Length, width and thickness of PZT layer are 135$\mu$m, 20$\mu$m and 0.4$\mu$m, respectively. Dimensions of the silicon serpentine spring are thickness of 25$\mu$m, length of 300$\mu$m, and width of 5$\mu$m. The bellows actuator has been fabricated by SOI wafer with 25$\mu$m-top silicon and 1$\mu$m-buried oxide layer. The bellows actuator shows the maximum 3.93$\pm$0.2$\mu$m lateral displacement at 16V with 1Hz sinusoidal voltage input. In the frequency response test, the fabricated bellows actuator showed consistent displacement from 1Hz to 1kHz at 10V. From experimental study, we found the bellows actuator using thin film PZT and silicon serpentine spring generated mainly laterally displacement not vertical displacement at 16V, and serpentine spring played role of stroke amplification.

To discern general tendency in relatively pure even-aged pine stands, to group the stands and to perceive neighbourhood effects a total of 39 sites of pine stand was surveyed from nearby Seoul (12 sites), Chunsung, Kangwon (13 sites) and Sosan, Chungnam (14 sites), for herb and shrub species 32, 19; 37, 19 and 41, 14 in the respective areas from September 1987 to July 1988. In terms of detrended correspondence analysis (DECORANA), the stands were subjected to ordinate with 16 physical variables and the vegetational variables. The resource ratio (N:P, N:K, P:K) as physical variables also was tried out in the DECORANA as well as independent variable (N.P.K). The outcome did not show any meaningful difference. It is suggested that there seems to be no apparent interaction among the elements in the study. Three vertical vegetation componeent, that is, tree layer, shrub layer, herb layer were subjccted to DECORANA independently, pairwisely and as a whole (a total 7 combinations). Of those analysis herb layer trial alone seems to indicate relatively clearer differences among the physical variables. In the stands nearby Seoul first axis indicated soil field capacity and exchangeable cations (K, Ca and Na) and second axis did not show any tendency. For the Chunsung stands first axis also revealed soil field capcity and amount of arganic matter and second axis showed amount of exchangeable cation (K, Ca and Na), In the Seosan 1st axis indicated pH and exchangeable cations (K, Ca and Na). For the 39 sites 4 clusters in terms of herb layer might be defined: Peucedanum terebinthaceum-Cymbopogon tortilis-Polygala japonica-Festuca ovina (1); Atractylodes japonica-Patrina scabiosaefolia (2); Potentilla fragarioides-Atractylodes (3); and Cymbopogon tortilis (4). In the neighbourhood effects study in terms of the basal area distribution, Thiessen polygon area and Gini coefficient for the Pinus thunbergii stands of Seosan the Thiessen polygon area approach seems to indicate earlier (30 years old) neighbourhood effect than the others (45 years).

We design a crisscrossed double-layer birdcage (DLBC) coil by modifying the coil geometry of a standard single-layer BC (SLBC) coil to enhance the homogeneity of transmitting magnetic flux density ($B_1{^+}$) along the main magnetic field ($B_0$)-direction for small-animal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 300 MHz. The performance assessment of the crisscrossed DLBC coil is conducted by computational analysis with the finite-difference time domain method (FDTD) and compared with SLBC coil in terms of the $B_1$ and the $B_1{^+}$ distribution. As per the computational calculation studies, the mean value in the two-dimensional $B_1{^+}$ map obtained at the mid-axial slice with the proposed DLBC coil is slightly lower than that obtained with the SLBC coil, but the $B_1{^+}$ value of the DLBC coil in the outermost plane (40 mm away from the central plane) shows improvements of 19.3% and 24.8% over the SLBC coil $B_1{^+}$ value when simulating a spherical phantom and realistic mouse body modeling. These simulation results indicate that, the $B_1{^+}$ homogeneity along the z-direction was improved by using DLBC configuration. Our approach enables $B_1{^+}$ homogeneity improvement along the zdirection, and it can also be applied to ultra-high field (UHF) MRI systems.

Double patterning technology (DPT) has been suggested as a promising candidates of the next generation lithography technology in FLASH and DRAM manufacturing in sub-40nm technology node. DPT enables to overcome the physical limitation of optical lithography, and it is expected to be continued as long as e-beam lithography takes place in manufacturing. Several different processes for DPT are currently available in practice, and they are litho-litho-etch (LLE), litho-etch-litho-etch (LELE), litho-freeze-litho-etch (LFLE), and self-aligned double patterning (SADP) [1]. The self-aligned approach is regarded as more suitable for mass production, but it requires precise control of sidewall space etch profile for the exact definition of hard mask layer. In this paper, we propose etch end point detection (EPD) in spacer etching to precisely control sidewall profile in SADP. Conventional etch EPD notify the end point after or on-set of a layer being etched is removed, but the EPD in spacer etch should land-off exactly after surface removal while the spacer is still remained. Precise control of real-time in-situ EPD may help to control the size of spacer to realize desired pattern geometry. To demonstrate the capability of spacer-etch EPD, we fabricated metal line structure on silicon dioxide layer and spacer deposition layer with silicon nitride. While blanket etch of the spacer layer takes place in inductively coupled plasma-reactive ion etching (ICP-RIE), in-situ monitoring of plasma chemistry is performed using optical emission spectroscopy (OES), and the acquired data is stored in a local computer. Through offline analysis of the acquired OES data with respect to etch gas and by-product chemistry, a representative EPD time traces signal is derived. We found that the SE-EPD is useful for precise control of spacer etching in DPT, and we are continuously developing real-time SE-EPD methodology employing cumulative sum (CUSUM) control chart [2].

유비쿼터스 환경은 피어간의 연결, 이동이 전제되는 환경 등의 특정을 가지고 있다. 이러한 특정은 peer-to-peer(P2P) 시스템과 이동 애드혹 네트워크 (MANET)로 표현될 수 있다. P2P 시스템과 MANET은 비슷한 특징이 많이 있어 MANET 환경에서 P2P 시스템 구현은 매력적이다. 그러나 유선망에서 디자인된 P2P 시스템을 그대로 MANET에 적용하는 경우 성능이 만족스럽지 못하다는 것이 연구결과로 입증되었다. 이에 본 논문에서는 cross-layer 디자인을 사용하고 피어의 양호성을 고려하여 MANET 환경에서 만족스러운 성능을 낼 수 있는 P2P 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 라우팅 에트릭과 P2P 에트릭을 시용하여 연결을 유지할 피어를 선택하고, 피어 정보를 능동적으후 전달한다. 모의실험 결과, 제안한 방안은 라우팅 경로를 줄임으로써 쿼리 성공률, 쿼리 응답시간, 에너지 소모량에서 좋은 성능을 보여주었다.

무선 애드-혹 네트워크와 유선 네트워크를 연동하는 하이브리드 애드-혹 네트워크에서 효율적인 서비스 검색 기법은 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 무선 애드-혹 네트워크를 인터넷으로 확장한 하이브리드 애드-혹 네트워크를 위해 중복을 허용하는 다중 경로 소스 라우팅 프로토콜을 사용하는 효율적인 크로스-레이어 서비스 검색 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 다중 경로 소스 라우팅 프로토콜의 장점뿐만 아니라 크로스-레이어 서비스 검색 기법의 장점을 동시에 갖는 기법이다. 서비스와 경로 검색이 동시에 이루어지는 크로스-레이어 서비스 검색 기법이 서비스 검색 후 해당 경로를 다시 검색하여 서비스를 제공받는 기존 기법보다 적은 오버헤드를 가진다는 것은 직관적으로 이해할 수 있으므로, 본 시뮬레이션을 통해서는 이 기법이 각 노드에서 다중 라우팅 경로를 유지함으로써 경로 단절시 보다 빠른 라우팅 복구가 가능하며, 다중 경로의 수를 제한하고 링크/노드 중복을 허용하는 다중 경로를 유지하도록 함으로써 라우팅 오버헤드를 줄일 수 있음으로 보인다.
