In this paper, a design and fabrication of 40 W power amplifier for the X-band using load-pull measurement of GaN HEMT chip are presented. The adopted active device for power amplifier is GaN HEMT chip of TriQuint company, which is recently released. Pre-matched fixtures are designed in test jig, because the impedance range of load-pull tuner is limited at measuring frequency. Essentially required 2-port S-parameters of the fixtures for extraction optimal input and output impedances is obtained by the presented newly method. The method is verified in comparison of the extracted optimal impedances with data sheet. The impedance matching circuit for power amplifier is designed based on EM co-simulation using the optimal impedances. The fabricated power amplifier with 15${\times}$17.8 $mm^2$ shows the efficiency above 35 %, the power gain of 8.7~8.3 dB and the output power of 46.7~46.3 dBm at 9~9.5 GHz with pulsed-driving width of 10 usec and duty of 10 %.

본 논문에서는 내장된 수동형 트리플렉서와 듀얼 밴드/트라이모드 RF 모듈을 PCB에 내장시켜서 북미향 CDMA용 부품으로 제작하였다. 수동형 트리플렉서는 모든 수동 소자들을 다층 PCB 기판 안에 내장시키고 그 위에 GPS용 SAW 대역통과필터를 이용하여 설계 및 제작하였다. 8개의 인덕터와 커패시터로 이루어진 수동 회로는 다이플렉서와 병렬 공진기, 임피던스 매칭 회로로 구성되어 있다. CDMA용 듀얼밴드/트라이모드 RF 모듈은 트리플렉서와 CDMA, PCS용 듀플렉서를 테스트 보드 위에 조합하여 제작하였다. 측정된 주파수 특성들은 시뮬레이션 값과 비교적 일치하였다. 트리플렉서와 듀얼 밴드/트라이모드 RF 모듈은 각기 $3{\times}4mm^2$와 ${7\times}7mm^2$의 작은 크기였다. 설계 및 제작된 소자들은 고성능과 경박단소화, 저가화 등의 이점이 있기 때문에, 북미향 CDMA용 단말기의 응용부품에 적용될 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

Cost-effective, robust devices for solid-state lighting industry that converts electricity to light revolutionize the current lighting industry. Phosphor materials used in these devices should be synthesized in a low-cost and effective method for use in WLEDs. In this presentation, the synthesis of Eu3+ ions doped BaMoO4 phosphor samples by a facile synthesis process for red component of WLEDs will be shown. The tetragonal phase of the host lattice was substantiated by the X-ray diffraction patterns. The morphological studies were carried out by using a field-emission scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope. These confirmed the formation of a shuttle like particles with perpendicular protrusions in the middle of the particle. The photoluminescence (PL) properties exhibited good emission with a high asymmetry ratio when excited with ultraviolet B wavelengths (~ 280-315 nm). The cathodoluminescence (CL) spectra showed similar results to the PL spectra, indicating the rich red emission. The results suggest that this phosphor is a good material as red region component in the development of tri-band UV excitation based WLEDs.

최근 석유 자원의 고갈로 인하여 요구되는 대체 에너지 개발의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 그중 태양에너지는 지구의 생명체가 살아가는 에너지의 근원으로서 매초 800~1,000 W에 달하는 에너지양으로 볼 때 태양은 인류가 가장 풍부하게 활용할 수 있는 에너지원이다. 태양에너지를 이용한 염료감응형 태양전지(Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells, DSSCs)는 제조원가를 낮출 수 있고, 유리 전극을 이용한 투명한 태양전지를 제조할 수 있어 건물의 유리창등으로 응용할 수 있는 장점이있다. 이러한 광변환 효율을 증가시키기 위한 방법으로 전기방사 TiO2 Nanofiber를 기계적으로 갈아서 제조한 TiO2 Nanorod 와 TiO2 Nanoparticle를 섞어서 만든 paste를 이용하여 넓은 표면적과 빠른 전자수송도를 갖게 하였고, 흡착된 염료에서 발생되는 광전자가 전해질의 산화, 환원되는 요오드 이온(I-/I3-)과의 재결합(recombination)현상을 TiO2 전극 위에 높은 밴드갭(band-gap)을 가지는 Al2O3 박막을 TriMethylAluminium (TMA) 전구체를 이용한 원자층 증착(Atomic Layer Deposition, ALD) 공정을 사용하여 진공증착 통해 광전변환효율이 떨어지는 현상을 방지하여 효율을 높였다.

In this paper, we propose the method to improve the performance of the antenna system that contains three bands, such as Lte3G, WLAN and Lte4G. This antenna has an advantage that can cover the three different frequency bands 2.1GHz, 2.4GHz and 2.6GHz through one antenna design. The design and simulations are done using CST Microwave Studio 2014 program. The antenna is designed by using the FR-4 (lossy) substrate with the dielectric constant of er=4.3 and dielectric loss tangent 0.025. The substrate dimensions are the following; Thickness[h] is 1.6mm, Length is 90mm, and Width is 40mm. The ground is designed by using the PEC material with h=0.035mm. The patch is designed by using the copper with h=0.035mm. In the near future, we will fabricate the antenna, which we have designed, and then apply this antenna to the mobile communication system. And we will test this mobile communication system for the diverse environments.

Water color analysis allows non-destructive estimation of abundance of optically active water constituents in the water body. Recently, there have been increasing needs for light-weighted multispectral cameras that can be integrated with low altitude unmanned platforms such as drones, autonomous vehicles, and heli-kites, for the water color analysis by spectroradiometers. This study performs the preprocessing of the Micasense Rededge-M camera which recently receives a growing attention from the earth observation community for its handiness and applicability for local environment monitoring, and investigates the applicability of Rededge-M data for water color analysis. The Vignette correction and the band alignment were conducted for the radiometric image data from Rededge-M, and the sky, water, and solar radiation essential for the water color analysis, and the resultant remote sensing reflectance were validated with an independent hyperspectral instrument, TriOS RAMSES. The experiment shows that Rededge-M generally satisfies the basic performance criteria for water color analysis, although noticeable differences are observed in the blue (475 nm) and the near-infrared (840 nm) band compared with RAMSES.

An envelope elimination and restoration transmitter that uses a tri-level envelope encoding scheme is presented for improving the efficiency and linearity of the system. The proposed structure amplifies the same magnitude signal regardless of the input peak-to-average power ratio and reduces the quantization noise by spreading out the noise to the out-of-band frequency, resulting in the enhancement of power efficiency. An improved linearity is also obtained by providing a new timing mismatch calibration technique between the envelope and phase signal. Implementation in a 130 nm CMOS process, transmitter measurements on a 20-MHz long-term evolution input signal show an error vector magnitude of 3.7 % and an adjacent channel leakage ratio of 37.5 dBc at 2.13 GHz carrier frequency.

Bacillus subtilis K-4-3, which produces considerable amount of $\beta$-glucanase was selected among extracellular $\beta$-glucanase-producing bacteria isolated from soil. $\beta$-glucanase was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and DEAE-sephacel ion exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme revealed a single band by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 17000 dalton by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The optimum pH and temperature of the purified $\beta$-glucanase were 7.0 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by 1.0mM of $Fe^{3+}$, and activated by 1.0mm of $Li^{}47+$. The absence of glucose after thin layer chromatography of reaction products revealed that the purified enzyme contains no cellobiase or laminarinbiase activity. The loberation of ki, tri-and tetra-saccharide as reaction products can be explained by endoaction of the enzyme.

After launching the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) on June 2010, field campaigns were performed routinely around Korean peninsula to collect in-situ data for calibration and validation. Key measurements in the campaigns are radiometric ones with field radiometers such as Analytical Spectral Devices FieldSpec3 or TriOS RAMSES. The field radiometers must be regularly calibrated. We, in the paper, introduce the optical laboratory built in KOSC and the relative calibration method for in-situ measurement spectroradiometer. The laboratory is equipped with a 20-inch integrating sphere (USS-2000S, LabSphere) in 98% uniformity, a reference spectrometer (MCPD9800, Photal) covering wavelengths from 360 nm to 1100 nm with 1.6 nm spectral resolution, and an optical table ($3600{\times}1500{\times}800mm^3$) having a flatness of ${\pm}0.1mm$. Under constant temperature and humidity maintainance in the room, the reference spectrometer and the in-situ measurement instrument are checked with the same light source in the same distance. From the test of FieldSpec3, we figured out a slight difference among in-situ instruments in blue band range, and also confirmed the sensor spectral performance was changed about 4.41% during 1 year. These results show that the regular calibrations are needed to maintain the field measurement accuracy and thus GOCI data reliability.

This study was undertaken to investigate the characteristics of the proteolytic enzyme extracted from Neungee mushroom [Sarcodon aspratus (Berk.) S. Ito]. The enzyme was purified by using Tris-acryl CM-cellulose ion exchange, gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA 54, Hydroxy apatite column chromatography and preparative isoelectic focusing. The specific activity of the purified enzyme increased 8 times as compared with that of the crude enzyme. The enzyme was homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The optimum pH was 10.1, indicating the enzyme to be alkaline protease and the optimum temperature was $57^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was stable at temperatures lower than $50^{\circ}C$and at pH values ranging from 4.0 to 10.8. However, the enzyme activity decreased by 26 and 65% at 60 and $65^{\circ}C$, respectively, when incubated for 30 minutes. The enzyme activity was activated by $Mn^{++}$ and inhibited by $Cu^{++}$ and $Hg^{++}$. The enzyme was consisted of monomer and its molecular weight estimated to be about 30,100 when determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate PAGE. Isoelectric point of the enzyme was determined to be 9.80.
