In this study, a new LTCC material using
$ZnWO_4$ -LiF system was attempted with respect to use as a capacitor layer in Front-End Module. Pure$ZnWO_4$ must be sintered above$1050^{\circ}C$ in order to obtain up to 98% of full density. It's measured dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 15.5, 74380GHz, and$-70ppm/^{\circ}C$ , respectively. LiF addition resulted in an liquid phase formation at$810^{\circ}C$ due to interaction between$ZnWO_4$ and LiF. Therefore$ZnWO_4$ with 0.5~1.5wt% LiF could be densified at$850^{\circ}C$ . Addition of LiF slightly lowered the dielectric constant from 15.5 to 14.2~15. In the given LiF addition range, the sintering shrinkage increased with increasing LiF content.$Q{\times}fo$ value, however, decreased with increasing LiF content(or increasing densification). This is originated from the interaction between the liquid phase and$ZnWO_4$ and inhomogeneity of grain morphology. -

The rheological characteristics of PNN-PZT ceramics with high electromechanical coupling factor and electricstrictive constant was investigated. Green sheets of piezoelectric PNN-PZT ceramics were made by tape-casting method with controlling the mixing ratio of a dispersant, an organic binder, and a plasticizer. When the dispersant content was 1 wt.%, the slurry showed the best rheological characteristics for tape casting. The amounts of the plasticizer and the binder was simultaneously varied in the ranges of 1.5~18 and 3~9 wt.%, respectively. When both the plasticizer and binder of 6 wt.% mixed in the solution, respectiveley, the highest green density of the sheet was obtained without macrodefects. Multilyered structures of PNN-PZT/Ag-Pd were successfully fabricated using the optimized tape casting condition.

However, the key to this development involved the theoretical analysis of vibration modes and material improvements of piezoelectric ceramics. The primary application of ceramic filters has been for consumer-market use. Accordingly, a major emhpasis has involved mass production technology, leading to low-priced devices. A typical ceramic filter includes monolithic resonators and capacitors packaged in unique configurations. Nakazawa developed a double-mode resonator as two acoustically coupled single resonators.

Powder synthesis using the alkoxy precursor technique exhibits processing flexibility not available in traditional high temperature solid-state reaction. With proper process control, impurities can be reduced to very low levels. The major distinction of the present work lies in the method of accomplishing the hydrolysis reaction.

Instead the metal alkoxide/alcohol solution is heated to a temperature at which water is formed through dehydration of the alcohol solvent, causing precipitation of the corresponding metal oxide (hydroxide). The present method provides a means of producing amorphous alumina.

The optogalvanic signals were measured using hollow cathode discharge tube with argon as buffer gas at change of discharge currents. A change of ionization rate due to electron collision causes an increase or decrease of the electric conductivity. This change in electric conductivity generates the optogalvanic signal. We conclude that optogalvanic signal has close relation with the lowest metastable atoms density at low current.

This paper describes the characteristic analyses and a new design of the bushing for the pole transformers. The mechanical breakdown of the upper part of the bushing was frequently occurred. This caused the leakage of mineral oil, resulted in the interruption of electric power. Therefore, the bushings were investigated by the material analytical method and Finite Element Method. The analyses were performed by the Induced Coupled Plasma(ICP), X-ray diffraction(XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM), and Dielectric Thermal Analyzer(DETA). Also, the Von-Mises stress of the top part of bushing was determined by using ANSYS program. The Von-Mises stress of the newly designed bushing was reduced about 50%. Therefore, if we apply the newly designed bushing, the number of mechanical breakdown may be decreased.

In this paper, the
$CF_4$ decomposition rate and by-product were investigated for a simulated two plasma reactors which are metal particle reactor and spiral wire reactor as function of mixed gases. The$CF_4$ decomposition rate by plasma reactor with metal particle electrode had a gain of 20~25[%] over that by plasma reactor with spiral wire electrode.

In this paper, we made different types of non-thermal plasma reactors such as Metal-particle reactor with
$Al_2O_3$ to measure NOx removal characteristic and the dielectric effect for NOx removal. NOx removal rate is not so good when we use just dielectric of$Al_2O_3$ at the Metal-particle reactor, also we just put sludge pellets(100%) without Metal-particle reactor with$Al_2O_3$ and dielectric such as$TiO_2$ ,$BaTiO_3$ to measure the effect of sludge for NOx removal so that NOx removal rate is almost the same. However NOx removal rate is more than 90% in case of the reactor of composition shape used both dielectric of$Al_2O_3$ and sludge pellets at the same time. In case of the shape of plasma reactor with dielectric, the Metal-particle reactor with$Al_2O_3$ , and the metal-particle reactor with both$Al_2O_3$ and dielectric such as$TiO_2$ ,$BaTiO_3$ at the same time, they are almost the same effect for NOx removal, so we made MNPR(Metal-particle Non-thermal Plasma Reactor with$Al_2O_3$ ) to reduce these kinds of demerits. Finally, we think MNPR should be much better than other reactors for NOx removal. -
In this paper, in order to investigate the catalytic effect of the sludge exhausted from waterworks as heating temperature for NOx removal, we measure NO,
$NO_2$ concentration as increasing temperature of sludge pellets and applying high voltage to sludge pellets in a quartz-glass reactor at the same time. NO initial concentration is 100ppm balanced with air gas in a mixing chamber. The gas flow is 5[l/min] and the heating temperature of sludge pellets in a quartz-glass reactor is adjusted from$200[^{\circ}C]$ $400[^{\circ}C]$ to investigate the effect of sludge pellets for removal NOx$(NO+NO_2)$ as increasing temperature.$BaTiO_3$ pellets is filled in a packed-bed reactor for corona discharge to measure how much NOx$(NO+NO_2)$ is removed after generating$NO_2$ from the packed-bed reactor. AC[60Hz] voltage is supplied to the reactor for discharge. In the result,$NO_2$ concentration is decreased by sludge pellets without heating temperature for sludge pellets in case of sludge pellets done heat treatment, however NO concentration is almost the same to be compared NO initial concentration. As increasing heating temperature for sludge pellets,$NO_2$ adsorbed on the sludge surface done heat treatment is converted to NO by the thermal energy, so NO concentration is extremely increased by reduction decomposition of$NO_2$ . Finally, We think the sludge is possible to use for reduction catalysts, however we need to study more about the possibility and endurance of sludge as catalysts for NOx removal. -

The degree of contamination in outdoor insulation system is one of the most importance factor to determine the level of insulation, and the salt is known as the most dangerous contaminants in the most region of the world. In a macroscopic point of view, as shown through the preceding study, the generation and deposition of salt contaminants has a great relation with the geographical conditions and the meteorological conditions, such as, wind velocity, wind direction, precipitation and so forth. However, in the aspect of microscopic analysis, the pollution mechanism has a great relation with aerodynamic properties of insulator, originated from the profile of insulators, and the non-uniform deposition is unevitable. So, in this investigation, we had make a experiment to seize the electrical properties of non-uniformly contaminated insulator. The results of this investigation could be used as a good groundwork in the determination of outdoor insulation design.

PD phenomena can be regarded as a deterministic dynamical process where PD should be occurred if the local electric field be reached to be sufficiently high. And thus, its mathematical model can be described by either difference equations or differential equations using several state variables obtained from the time sequential measured data of PD signals. These variables can provide rich and complex behavior of detectable time series, for which Chaos theory can be employed. In this respect, a new PD pattern recognition method is proposed and named as 'Chaotic Analysis of Partial Discharges (CAPD)' for this work. For this purpose, six types of specimen are designed and made as the models of the possible defects that may cause sudden failures of the underground power transmission cables under service, and partial discharge signals, generated from those samples, are detected and then analyzed by means of CAPD. Throughout the work, qualitative and quantitative properties related to the PD signals from different defects are analyzed by use of attractor in phase space, information dimensions (
$D_0$ and D2), Lyapunov exponents and K-S entropy as well. Based on these results, it could be pointed out that the nature of defect seems to be identified more distinctively when the CAPD is combined with traditional statistical method such as PRPDA. Furthermore, the relationship between PD magnitude and the occurrence timing is investigated with a view to simulating PD phenomena. -

The mechanisms of pretilt angle generation for a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) with negative dielectric anisotropy on the blended polyimide (PI) surface containing trifluoromethyl moiety was studied. High LC pretilt angle on the blended polymer surface with F3 was measured and the pretilt angle increased with rubbing strength. However, the low LC pretilt angle on the blended polymer surface with F1 and F2 was measured. The high LC pretilt angle generated is attributable to trifluoromethyl moiety in backbone structure on the blended PI surface. Therefore, the high pretilt angle of NLC can be achieved by using the blended polymer surface.

We have examined the impedance characteristics and the battery characteristics of PLI bicell. As results, the impedance of PLI bicell with 62 wt% cathode active material were lower than the other cathode active material content. And the specific resistances of PLI bicell increased with N/P ratio until 1.85. And the impedance of PLI bicell decreased with increased adding amounts of binder. But the rate capability of PLI bicell were not increased with increased adding amounts of binder. PLI bicell with 9.9 wt% binder content were the best rate capability. but the cycleability were not the same results as the rate capability. PLI bicells with cathode with more than 11 wt% binder, their cycleability were almost same, nevertheless they were better cycleability than 9.9 wt% binderl content.

This paper presents Bi thin films have been fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition and co-deposition at an IBS method. The growth rates of the films was set in the region from 0.17 to 0.27 nm/min. MgO(100) was used as a substrate. In order to appreciate stable existing region of Bi 2212 phase with temperature and ozone pressure, the substrate temperature was varied between 655 and
$820^{\circ}C$ and the highly condensed ozone gas pressure$(PO_3)$ in vacuum chamber was varied between$2.0{\times}10^{-6}$ and$2.3{\times}10^{-5}Torr$ . Bi 2212 phase appeared in the temperature range of 750 and$795^{\circ}C$ : and single phase of Bi 2201 existed in the lower region than$785^{\circ}C$ . Whereas,$PO_3$ dependance on structural formation was scarcely observed regardless of the pressure variation. And high quality of c-axis oriented Bi 2212 thin film with$T_c$ (onset) of about 90 K and$T_c$ (zero) of about 45 K is obtained. Only a small amount of CuO in some films was observed as impurity, and no impurity phase such as$CaCuO_2$ was observed in all of the obtained films. -

In this paper, we have studied with regard to the use of lasers for modifying the surface properties of silicon in order to improve it's wettability and adhesion characteristics. Using an Nd:YAG pulse laser, the wettability and adhesion characteristics of silicon surface have been developed by an Nd:YAG pulse laser. It was found that the laser treatment of silicon surfaces modified the surface energy. In the result of wetting experiments, by the sessile drop technique using the distilled water, wetting characteristic of silicon after the laser irradiation shows a decreased value of the contact angle. In case of the laser treated silicon surface, laser direct writing of copper lines has been achieved by pyrolytic decomposition of copper formate films
$(Cu(HCOO)_2{\cdot}4H_2Q)$ , using a focused$Ar^+$ laser beam$(\lambda=514.5nm)$ on the silicon substrates. The deposited patterns were measured by energy dispersive X-ray(EDX), Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and surface profiler($\alpha$ -step) to examine the cross section of deposited copper lines and linewidth. -
The guard-ring type 3-terminal parallel plate electrodes proposed by ASTM D 150-81 and IEC 250 have been widely used for measurement of dielectric constants of solid dielectrics. However the method using this electrodes causes many uncertainty associated with the measurement errors of the diameter of the guarded electrode. the gap between guarded and guard-ring electrode. the distance of two active electrodes(the thickness of specimen), the roughness and contamination of surface of electrode and specimen. close adherence grade of electrode and specimen. In this paper. a new electrode system of cross capacitance type based on Thompson-Lampard theorem is designed and is employed for the measurement of dielectric constant. The results of simulation of guard-ring electrode and cross capacitance electrode using FEM program show that distance measurement between two electrodes in guard-ring electrode produces large uncertainty. on the other hand this effect in cross capacitance electrode is negligible. Furthermore. the air gap effects in the cross capacitance electrode is 5.6 times less sensitive than that in guard-ring electrode by assuming air gap of
$50{\mu}m$ . -

In the network, a node corresponds to a state in the quantized input space. Each node is composed of a processing unit and fixed weights from its neighbor nodes as well as its input terminal. Information propagates among neighbor nodes laterally and inter-node interpolation is achieved. Through several simulation experiments,real time reconstruction of the nonlinear image information is processed.

Zinc Air battery obtain their energy density advantage over the other batteries by utilizing ambient oxygen as the cathode materials, and reusing cathode as recycled form. And specific capacity of zinc powder is as high as 820mAh/g. When Zinc Air battery discharged by low rate current discharge voltage profile has very flat pattern until end of voltage. But, when Zinc Air battery discharged by high rate current discharge voltage and capacity become lower. Therefore, we focused on effects of catalyst size in cathode. So we examined performance of zinc air batteries, average discharge voltage, capacity, energy, resistance. And we also obtained resistance by the GSM pulse discharge. So we have got optimum size of catalyst for Zinc Air battery. -

Dielectric ceramics with nominal composition of
$(Ba_{0.93}Sr_{0.07}O)-0.5Sm_2O_3-4.5TiO_2$ was prepared using the conventional mixed oxide process-derived powder. Effect of$SiO_2$ ,$MnO_2$ and$Al_2O_3$ impurity addition on the microwave properties was examined in some detail.
