Using modal transmission-line theory (MTLT), it explores rigorously the polarization characteristics of plasmonic optical polarizer. To verify the validity of the approach proposed in this paper, a novel polarization condition, which is called mode suppression ratio, is defined. The numerical results reveal that the polarization length of plasmonic optical polarizer is $10{\mu}m$ dramatically shorter than that of conventional dielectric optical polarizer. Furthermore, the insertion loss of plasmonic polarizer consisting of metal Ag is small enough to be neglected below -1dB.

Ground radiation antenna in mobile devices is becoming an issue for satisfying both miniaturization and high performance. Ground radiation antenna controls the characteristic mode of the ground plane and couples this mode with the ground radiation antenna, thereby having good radiation performance. In this paper, the characteristic mode theory and applications of ground radiation antenna will be introduced. The operating mechanism of single band, wideband and dual-band ground radiation antennas are studied.

표면 플라즈몬 공진(SPR) 현상을 이용한 광섬유 센서는 SPR 센서의 우수한 표면 민감도, 비표지 검출능 등의 특징은 유지하면서 측정시스템이 단순해지고 저렴하게 제작이 가능하며 원거리 검출에 유리하다는 장점으로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 최근 스택 제어가 용이하고 민감도 또한 우수하다는 이유로 측면 연마형 센서 구조를 적용한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 Kretchman형태의 SPR 센서의 분해능 향상을 위해 사용된 광도파로 구조를 측면 연마형 광파이버에 적용시켰다. 금속 층 / 유전체 층 / 금속 층으로 구성되어 있는 광도파로 구조와 Au 단일 층을 사용한 기존 구조에 대한 이론 전사모사를 진행하고 실물 소자를 제작하여 특성을 평가하였다. WCSPR 센서에서는 두 개의 반사율 dips이 나타난다. 하나는 단파장영역에서 나타나는 폭이 작은 형태이며 또 다른 하나는 장파장영역에서 나타나는 폭이 넓은 형태이다. 단파장에서의 dip은 입사각에 크게 영향을 받지 않기 때문에 Wavelength interrogation mode을 이용하는 광섬유 SPR센서에 적용할 경우 분해능이 향상될 것 이다. WCSPR 센서는 도파로의 유전체층에서 진행되는 모드를 이용하면 Self-referencing을 할 수 있다, 또한 유전체 층의 두께를 변화 시켜 중심파장의 위치를 조절할 수 있는 특징을 갖고 있다. 결과적으로 광도파로 구조를 광파이버에 적용시켜 기존 Au 단일 층 구조의 SPR 센서에 비해 좀 더 정확하고 광범위한 감지를 할 수 있다.

This paper propose a new taegeuk shaped directional couper and verify the possibility of high power division rate in those directional coupler through the experiments. We took the taegeuk shaped structure in those proposed directional coupler to utilize a $3\lambda/4$ section of hybrid ring directional coupler actively, and calculated the branch admittances, which satisfied the condition of perfect matching and isolation in the center frequency, by even odd mode analyzing methodes. On the result, we knew that it can be realized a much higher power division rate than reported result in same circuit area within the producible resistance limit in the microstrip line, made the taegeuk shaped directional couplers with 0, 8, 16 dB power split ratio in the 10 GHz frequency using CGP - 502 plate, and confirmed the validity of theory through the experiments.

Coupling loss variation as the shape of fiber ends and the fiber arrangement in a fiber Fabry-Perot cavity, formed with two optical fibers with dielectric mirror coatings on their ends, is analyzed. For the intended features it is assumed that one of two fibers is processed to have a concave mirror whose curvature is the same as that of the wavefront of the Gaussian beam from the first fiber. In this assumption, it was turned out that the coupling loss at the cavity length of 15 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ is less than 0.5% even with tilt angle of 0.2$^{\circ}$, curvature error of 70 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, cavity length error of 8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and lateral alignment error of 0.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Thus, low loss and high-finesse fiber Fabry-Perot filters whose cavity length is greater than several ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ can be obtained easily if the receiving fiber end is properly formed.

This paper summarizes the previous research results of fundamental investigation done in SNU on the wireless power transfer. Firstly, the physical limitation of a wireless power transfer using the spherical modes is reviewed. It is found that wireless power transfer depends only on the radiation efficiency of the antennas and the distance between two antennas involved. Secondly, we review the characteristics of WPTS with different sources and compare the performance differences of WPTS according to the source type. In addition, the method for efficient WPTS is suggested when the distance between antennas is varied. Finally, by using the time domain solution of the coupled mode equation, we present an analytic formula which can be used to differentiate Inductive Coupling(IC) and Magnetic Resonance Coupling(MAC) which are often used ambiguously in wireless power transfer system.

$\text\tiny{D}$-Psicose 3-Epimerase (DPE)는 $\text\tiny{D}$-Fructose의 C3 Epimerase로써 $\text\tiny{D}$-Fructose를 $\text\tiny{D}$-Psicose로 전환해 주는 효소이다. $\text\tiny{D}$-Psicose는 설탕 대신 사용하는 감미료로 몸에 흡수되지 않아 칼로리가 없다고 알려져 있고 자연에서는 오로지 DPE에 의해서만 생산되는 희귀당이다. 이에 따라 DPE를 통한 $\text\tiny{D}$-Psicose 대량생산의 필요성이 대두되고 있는 등 이 분야에 대한 관심이 뜨거운 실정이다. 본 연구팀은 이 당과 관련된 작용기작 연구를 수행하기 위하여 아직 단백질 3차구조가 알려지지 않은 Clostridium hylemonae DPE (chDPE) 단백질의 3차 구조예측 연구를 수행 하였다. 우리는 HHsearch를 이용하여 agrobacterium tumefaciens의 DPE 외 2개의 구조를 호몰로지 모델링 연구를 위한 주형으로 선정하였다. 다음으로 PROMALS3D를 이용하여 주형들과 chDPE의 multiple sequence alignment를 수행하였고 이를 바탕으로 3차구조 예측 연구를 수행 하였다. 예측된 구조를 검증하기 위하여 ProSA와 Ramachandran plot분석을 이용하였고 Ramachandran plot에서 단백질의 94.8%에 해당하는 잔기들이 favoured regions에 위치하였다. ProSA에서는 Z-score값이 -9.3으로 X-선 결정학이나 핵자기 공명법으로 밝혀진 구조들에서 관측되는 범위 내에 위치하였다. 나아가 예측된 구조에 $\text\tiny{D}$-Psicose와 $\text\tiny{D}$-Fructose의 결합모드를 규명하기 위하여 도킹을 시도하였다. 이번 연구를 통하여 chDPE의 구조를 예측 할 수 있었고 이를 바탕으로 이 단백질의 기능을 이해하는데 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

Electromagnetically coupled coaxial dipole (ECCD) array antenna with and without short-ended termination is investigated theoretically. The integral equations are derived for the structure by use of the Fourier transform and mode expansion of radial waveguide. The integrals appearing in the integral equations are evaluated along the branch cut instead of real axis for a faster convergent integral. The effects of slots and dipoles, short-ended termination length, and dielectric coating on the radiation characteristics are presented. Radiation pattern of the structure is also investigated. The results of the present method are compared with those of the commercial EM simulator and good agreement is found.

In this paper, we present a polarizer that consists of three step rotary detents which can selectively convert linear polarzation into circular polarization and vice versa. For the design of the polarizer, the transmission line theory is applied to design the wa- veguide mode transducer for the modes to be smothly converted in waveguides, and a dielectric plate is inserted in circular waveguide for the conversion of a polarized wave with the angle of an inserted dielectric plate. Also, we simulated to obtain the optimum values of the transmission and the reflection coefficient characteristics at input and output port, and proved the propriety of the theory from the knowledge of measuring the constructed polarizer with the designed data.

In this paper, a 23 GHz push-push oscillator was designed and fabricated for 23 GHz point-to-point communication using split ring resonator. The split ring resonator was equivalent circuit and numerical method of MPIE(Mixed Potential Integral Equation). The analysis of split ring resonator which coupled between microstrip lines was carried out with transmission-mode using this results. The fabricated oscillator showed the output power of 4 dBm, the 1'st harmonic suppression of -20 dBc, the 3rd harmonic suppression of -34 dBc, a SSB phase noise of -109 dBc / Hz at 1MHz offset frequency from the carrier was achieved and 1.4 percents efficiency at 23 GHz. The experimental outputs were in good results with the theoretical and simulated results.
