  • The concept of Solid-State Fermentation is briefly explained in comparison to other fermentation principles, and several types of fermenters are presented. A recently developed "Swing Reactor" for SSF is shown. When inoculated on rice, the mould Monascus purpureus forms red pigments, Which can be used as food colors (Ang-kak, Red Rice). By Response Surface Methodology, serveral factors have been optimized for maximal red colour formation. Showing that presoaking time of rice, pH of soaking water, age of preculture and inoculum size were not of importance within the observed limits. For a fermentation time of 7 days, start humidity is optimal at 34% and temperature is optimal at 28.8 C. These results of small scale fermentation could be transferred to the Swing Reactor.

  • A 2.5Gb/s 2:1 multiplexer(MUX) IC using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS was designed and fabricated. Inductive peaking technology was used to improve the performance. On-chip micro spiral inductor was designed to maximize the inductive peaking effect without increasing the chip area much. The designed 4.7 nH micro-spiral inductor was $20\times20{\mu}m2$ in size. 2:1 MUX with and without micro spiral inductors were compared. The rise and fall time was improved more than 23% and 3% respectively using the micro spiral inductors for 1.25Gb/s signal. For 2.5 Gb/s signal, fall and rise time was improved 5.3% and 3.5% respectively. It consumed 61mW and voltage output swing was 1$180mV_{p-p}$ at 2.5Gb/s.

  • We evaluated a-Si:H TFTs fabricated on polyimide substrate (PI) at the highest temperature of $160^{\circ}C$ with uniaxial and tensile strain to imitate flexible display. With tensile strain, the threshold voltage of a-Si:H TFTs have positive shift due to extra dangling bond formation in a-Si:H layer. However, no significant degradation of the subthreshold swing and effective mobility with tensile strain of a-Si:H TFTs indicates the similar level of band tail state. The metal wire with the width of $10\;{\mu}m$ for connection on flexible substrate can sustain with curvature radius 2.5 cm.

  • Ion sensitive field effect transistor (ISFET)는 용액 중의 각종 이온 농도를 측정하는 반도체 이온 센서이다. ISFET는 작은 소자 크기, 견고한 구조, 즉각적인 반응속도, 기존의 CMOS공정과 호환이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. ISFET의 기본 구조는 기존의 metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET)에서 고안되었으며, ISFET는 기존의 MOSFET의 게이트 전극 부분이 기준전극과 전해질로 대체되어진 구조를 가지고 있다. ISFET소자의 pH 감지 메커니즘은 감지막의 표면에서 pH용액의 수소이온이 막의 표면에 속박되어 표면전위의 변화를 유발하는 것에 기인한다. 그 결과, 수소이온의 농도에 따라 ISFET의 문턱전압의 변화를 일으키게 되고 드레인 전류의 양 또한 달라지게 된다. 한편, ISFET의 좋은 pH감지특성과 높은 출력특성을 얻기 위하여 high-k물질들이 감지막으로써 지속적으로 연구되어져 왔다. 그 중 Al2O3와 HfO2는 높은 유전상수와 좋은 pH 감지능력으로 인하여 많은 연구가 이루어져온 물질이다. 하지만 HfO2는 높은 유전상수를 갖음에도 불구하고 화학용액에 대한 non-ideal 효과에 취약하다는 보고가 있다. 반면에 Al2O3의 유전상수는 HfO2보다 작지만 화학용액으로 인한 손상에 대하여 강한 immunity가 있는 재료이다. 본 연구에서는, 이러한 각각의 high-k 물질들의 단점을 보안하기 위하여 SiO2/HfO2/Al2O3(OHA) 적층막을 이용한 ISFET pH 센서를 제작하였으며 SOI 기판에서 구현되었다. SOI기판에서 OHA 적층막을 이용한 ISFET 제작이 이루어짐에 따라서 소자의 signal to noise 비율을 증대 시킬것으로 기대된다. 실제로 SOI-ISFET와 같이 제작된 SOI-MOSFET는 1.8${\times}$1010의 높은 on/off 전류 비율을을 보였으며 65 mV/dec의 subthreshold swing 값을 갖음으로써, 우수한 전기적 특성을 보이는 ISFET가 제작이 되었음을 확인 하였다. OHA 감지 적층막의 각 층은 양호한 계면상태, 높은 출력특성, 화학용액에 대한non-ideal 효과에 강한 immunity을 위하여 적층되었다. 결론적으로 SOI과 OHA 적층감지막을 이용하여 우수한 pH 감지 특성을 보이는 pH 센서가 제작되었다.

  • Purpose: An objective analysis and observations were to be done on hemiplegia patients that are wearing a walking support device, Stroke shoes. Their improvements in walking pace, the reduction of distance between the two knee joint, the increase of curve angle of the knee joint and their steps and the reduction of ankle joint upon swing phase were analyzed using a 20 walking analyzer. Methods: An examination was carried out to see the patients' communication skill and independent walking and then let them walk with the Stroke shoes on to get results before and after wearing it. Simi Reality Motion Systems GmbH (Germany, 2007) was used to analyze the results regarding knee joint and ankle joint angle changes of sagitta plane and coronal plane, stepping distances, distances between the knees and walking pace. Results: 1. The articulation angle of ankle joint during swing phase decreased and knee joint has shown a statistically significant increase in such value(p<0.05). 2. Only knee joint showed a significant increase in articulation angle during heel strike(p<0.05). 3. Knee joint showed a significant increase in articulation angle during toe off(p<0.05). 4. The distance between the two knees as well as their foot steps significantly decreased compared with when Stroke shoes were not worn(p<0.05). 5. Stroke shoes with FES have shown positive effects on the patients in improving their walking styles overall. (p<0.05). Conclusion: There was an improvement in rotation walking pattern by a reduction in the distance between the knees after wearing Stroke shoes with FES. Plantar flexion reduced that occurred in ankle joint during walking and flexion angle increased in knee joint, both of which improved foot drop which was a major problem in hemiplegia patients. Also it is believed that the device will have some positive influences on knee joint stiffening paralysis to aid in improving inefficient walking phases.

  • An experiment and simulation were performed for hydrogen separation of mixtures by PSA (pressure swing adsorption) process on activated carbon. The binary ($H_2/Ar$; 80%/ 20%) and ternary ($H_2/Ar/CH_4$; 60%/ 20%/ 20%) mixtures were used to study the effects of feed composition. The cyclic performances such as purity, recovery, and productivity of 2bed-6step PSA process were experimentally and theoretically compared under non-isothermal and non-adiabatic conditions. The develped process produced the hydrogen with 99% purity and 75% recovery from both processes. Therefore, optimal separation condition was referred multicomponent gas mixtures.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze kinematic variables in the badminton smash motion through 3-dimensional image analysis. The kinematic variables were velocity of joints in upper limbs, the angle of wrist in the impact, and the angular velocity of the top of racket head. The smash motions of four male badminton players in H University and four male students at department of the physical education in K University who were not majoring in badminton were analyzed kinematically and the attained conclusions were as follow. 1. The velocity of segments in upper limbs of the unskilled group was faster than that of the skilled group. The movement pattern was fast back swing-slow impact moment-fast fellow through in the unskilled group, but slow back swing-fast impact moment-slow follow through in the sullied group. 2. As the BS phases, the velocity of segment in right shoulder was different significantly between groups. Right elbow and right wrist segments, velocity of racket head was different significantly between groups(p<.05) by IP phases. As the FT phases, there was no significant difference. 3. The angle of right wrist at the impact, the angle of palm flexion and the angle of palm flexion in aspect were shown that the skilled group was higher than unskilled group. There was no significant difference. 4. The velocity of racket head was shown that the unskilled group has fast velocity, but the angle velocity was shown the unskilled group has slow. 5.

  • Response speed of generator/control system kas increased with the aid of the development of power electronics. Even though it is desirable to enhance response speed for the control system(AVR/Gov) of generator itself, in case a certain generator/control system with high response excitation system is connected with bulk power system, terminal voltage and active power of some generators can oscillate with adjoining generators or near area when even a little of disturbance take place. PSS(Power System Stabilizer) is used to damp rotor swing by adding the supplementary signal in phase with speed. As the stable AVR response is very important before PSS is installed, modeling and analysis of generator/control system was performed. Next we have analysed PSS response of Hanlim's gas turbine by transmission line open/close test.
