A laterally driven electromagnetic microactuator (LaDEM) is presented, and a micro-optical switch is designed and fabricated as a possible application. LaDEM provides parallel actuation of the microactuator to the silicon substrate surface (in-plane mode) by the Lorentz force. Poly-silicon-on-insulator (Poly-SOI) wafers and a reactive ion etching (RIE) process were used to fabricate high-aspect-ratio vertical microstructures, which allowed the equipment of a vertical micro mirror. A fabricated arch-shaped leaf spring has a thickness of $1.8{\mu}m$, width of $16{\mu}m$, and length of $800{\mu}m$. The resistance of the fabricated structure fer the optical switch was approximately 5$\Omega$. The deflection of the leaf springs increases linearly up to about 400 mA and then it demonstrates a buckling behavior around the current value. Owing to this nonlinear phenomenon, a large displacement of $60{\mu}m$ could be measured at 566 mA. The displacement-load relation and some dynamic characteristics are analyzed using the finite element simulations.

Because of refractory property of light, the travel path of UV light becomes longer than the straight line and shorter solely in water as UV light passes sequentially through air, quartz and water. Note that water significantly absorbs UV light. Hence, UV intensity shall be estimated to be lower when refraction is neglected than it is considered. Reflection is also critical for the design of UV radiation system. While the reflection at the interface of air and quartz is low enough to ignore, it is too high to be ignored at the interface of quartz and water. Assuming constant power, smaller length to width ratio of UV reactor is beneficial and single-lamp system is preferred to multi-lamps. Under the given cross section, optimal lamp positions could be decided. For example of an elliptical reactor with dual lamps, the optimal lamp locations shall be the 1/3 and 2/3 position of the longer axis.

In Yongwon channel, its natural flow of seawater is blocked by the construction of Busan Newport including the container berth. The channel was transformed into a narrow and long one, where it is possible that ships are only allowed to pass through the north-side channel of Gyeonmado located at the point of river mouth to Songjeongcheon. In addition, Yongwon channel is approximately 100 m wide on average and 3,600 m long, which has the highest slenderness ratio (length/width=36). So it is considered that the changes in the terrain characteristics of Yongwon channel is likely to alter the circulation of sea water, thereby changing its water quality. In this study, the seasonal change and the spatial variation of the water quality in Yongwon channel was analyzed for the effect of land pollution using the measurement data. The mass balance calculation method is used to analyze the water pollution resulting from sediment pollutants. This result shows that the improvement of the water quality in Yongwon channel can be obtained from the sewer pipe modification and the environmental dredging.

In order to design the high strength corrugated fiberboard containers for agricultural products that can be used for the cold chain system, a large number of individual boxes were placed in various humidity environments at two different temperature of 5 and $20^{\circ}C$. The results indicated that temperature changes do not effect on physical strength of corrugated fiberboard containers as much as humidity changes did. The main conclusion from this study was that compression strength of corrugated fiberboard containers dropped significantly at high humidity condition, but the rates varied depending on the number of walls, temperature, and perimeter of containers. The packaging designer must consider the corrugated fiberboard boxes are also greatly affected by dimensional variations such as the length versus width ratio. Based on this study, water-resistant board would not be necessary if the ambient relative humidity does not reach to a critical point, 85 percent in the cold chain system. However, the designer must count for the unexpected fluctuation of rotative humidity resulting in severe loss of the compression strength of corrugated fiberboard container.

오늘날 표시장치는 경량, 고밀도, 고해상도 대면적화의 요구에 의해 TFT-LCD의 발전이 이루어졌다. TFT에는 반도체 재료로서, Poly-Si을 사용하는 Poly-Si TFT와 a-Si:H를 이용하는 a-Si;H TFT가 있는데 a-Si는 $350^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온으로 제작이 가능하여 많이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 방향에 맞추어 bottom gate 구조의 a-Si TFT 실험을 진행하였다. P-type silicon substrate ($0.01{\sim}0.02{\Omega}-cm$)에 gate insulator 층인 SiNx (SiH4 : NH3 = 6:60)를 200nm 증착하였다. 그리고 그 위에 active layer 층인 a-Si (SiH4 : H2 : He =2.6 : 10 : 100)을 다른 RF power를 적용하여 100 nm 증착하였다. 그 위에 Source와 Drain 층은 Al 120 nm를 evaporator로 증착하였다. active layer, gate insulator 층은 ICP-CVD 장비를 이용하여 증착하였으며, 공정온도는 $300^{\circ}C$ 로 고정하였다. active layer층 증착시 RF power는 100W, 300W, 500W, 600W로 가변하였고, width/length는 100 um/8um로 고정하였다. 증착한 a-Si layer층을 Raman spectroscope, SEM 측정 하였으며, TFT 제작 후, VG-ID, VD-ID 측정을 통해 전기적 특성인 Threshold voltage, Subthreshold swing, Field effect mobility, ON/OFF current ratio를 비교해 보았다.

A long-term field demonstration experiment of selected stabilization method to reduce the heavy metal mobility in farmland soil contaminated by heavy metals around abandoned mine site was conducted. Field demonstration experiments were established on the contaminated farmland with the wooden plate(thickness=1cm) which dimension were width=200cm, Length=200cm, height=80cm and filled with treated soil, which was mixed with lime stone and steel refining slag except on control plot. Soil samples were collected and analyzed during the experiment period(2008. 2~2008. 8) after the installation of the plots. Field demonstration experiments results showed that the application ratio of lime stone 5% was effective for immobilizing heavy metal components in contaminated farmland soil.

Organic semiconductors based on vacuum-deposited films of fused-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon have great potential to be utilized as an active layer for electronic and optoelectronic devices. In this study, pentacene thin films and electrode materials were deposited by Organic Molecular Beam Deposition (OMBD) and vacuum evaporation respectively. For the gate dielectric layer, OPTMER PC403 photo acryl (JSR Coporation.) was spin-coated and cured at $220^{\circ}C$. Electrical characteristics of the devices were investigated, where the channel length and width was $50{\mu}m$ and 5 mm. It was found that field effect mobility was $0.039\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$, threshold voltage was -7 V, and on/off current ratio was $10^6$.

Then-channel poly-Si thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFT's) formed by solid phase crystallization (SPC) method on glass were measured to obtain the electrical parameters such as of I-V characteristics, mobility, leakage current, threshold voltage, and subthreshold slope. Then, devices were analyzed to obtain the reliability and appliability on TFT-LCD with large-size and high density. In n-channel poly-Si TFT with 5$\mu\textrm{m}$/2$\mu\textrm{m}$, 8$\mu\textrm{m}$, 30$\mu\textrm{m}$ devices of channel width/length, the field effect mobilities are 111, 116, 125 $\textrm{cm}^2$/V-s and leakage currents are 0.6, 0.1, and 0.02 pA/$\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. Low threshold voltage and subthreshold slope, and good ON-OFF ratio are shown, as well. Thus. the poly-Si TFT's used by SPC are expected to be applied on TFT-LCD with large-size and high density, which can integrate the display panel and peripheral circuit on a targe glass substrate.

Hydration rate of 35 Japonica and 24 J x Indica rice varieties at $23^{\circ}C$ was investigated and an attempt was made for a tentative classification of milled rice into six groups based on hydration rate. Each rice variety had characteristic value for hydration rate. In general, J x Indica rice hydrated at a faster rate than Japonica rice. Hydration rate was negatively correlated with the ratio of length to width of rice grain. No correlation was found between hydration rate and protein, amylose, surface area, volume or initial water grain.
