Si₃N₄/SiO₂/Si₃N₄ 멤브레인에 의해 실리콘 기판으로부터 열차단된 비냉각 초전형 박막 (Ba,Sr)TiO₃ 적외선 검지기를 제작하고, 적외선 검지기의 특성을 논의하였다. 25℃의 공기중에서 쵸핑주파수가 1 ㎐일 때 적외선 검지기는 약 168.8 V/W의 비교적 높은 전압 감응도를 나타내었으나, 매우 작은 신호대잡음비 때문에 약 2.6×10⁴㎝·㎐/sup 1/2//W의 낮은 비검지도를 나타내었다. 또한 출력파형의 쵸핑주파수 및 온도 의존성에 대한 정성적인 해석으로부터 적외선 검지기의 열잡음전압 및 열시정수가 모두 상당히 크다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

We have investigated the oxidation of gas phase elemental mercury using dielectric barrier discharge (DBD). In the DBD process, active species such as $O_3$, OH, O and $HO_2$ are generated by collisions between electrons and gas molecules. Search active species convert elemental mercury into mercury oxide which is deposited into the wall of DBD reactor because of its low vapor pressure. The oxidation efficiency of elemental mercury has been decreased from 60 to 30% by increasing the initial concentration of the elemental mercury from 72 to $655{\mu}g/Nm^3$. The gas retention time at the DBD reactor has showed the little effect on the oxidation efficiency. The more oxygen concentration has induced the more oxidation of elemental mercury, whereas there has been no appreciable oxidation within pure $N_2$ discharge. It has indicated that oxygen atom and ozone, generated in air condition determine the oxidation of elemental mercury.

In this paper, we fabricated new GaAs-based dielectric-supported air gapped microstriplines(DAMLs) using the surface MEMS and the LPF for Ka-band using the fabricated DAMLs. We elevated the signal lines from the substrate, in order to reduce the substrate dielectric loss and obtain low losses at millimeter-wave frequency band with wide impedance range. We fabricated LPF with DAMLs for Ka-band. Due to reducing the dielectric loss of DAMLs, the insertion loss of LPF can be reduced. Miniature is essential to integrate LPF with active devices, so that we fabricated LPF with the slot on the ground to reduce the size of the LPF. We compared a characteristic to LPF with the slot and LPF without the slot.

Dielectric barrier discharge plasma reactor was applied to the removal of ethylene from a simulated storage facility ($1.0m^3$) of fruits and vegetables. The system operated in a closed-loop mode by feeding the contaminated gas to the plasma reactor and recirculating the treated gas back to the storage facility. The experiments were carried out with parameters such as discharge power, circulation flow rate, initial ethylene concentration and treatment time. The rate of ethylene decomposition was mainly controlled by the discharge power and the treatment time. With the other conditions kept constant, the ethylene decomposition rate in the presence of the manganese oxide ozone control catalyst installed downstream from the plasma reactor was lower than that in the absence of it. The suggests that unreacted ozone from the plasma reactor accumulated in the storage facility where it additionally decomposed ethylene. On the basis of an initial ethylene concentration of 50 ppm, the energy requirement for completing the decomposition was about 60 kJ.

In this paper, an algorithm for retrieving soil moisture from measurement of microwave reflection at the end of a coaxial canble is presented. Because the wave reflection from the boundary between air and soil layers depends on the dielectric constant of the soil layer, the dielectric constant can be obtained from measured reflection coefficient. At first, an equivalent circuit for the coaxial probe contaced on the soil surface was chosen with two unknown circuit elements. Then, the unknown circuit elements are obtained experrmentally by measuring the reflection constants of 20 soil samples, and consequently, an empirical formula for computing the dielectric constant from the reflection coefficient is obtained. The dielectric constant is mainly influenced by the soil moisture, and the soil moisture can be computed from the dielecfic constant using an existing empirical formula. HP Network Analyzer 8510C was used to measure the magnitude and the phase of the reflection coeffcient at 4.65 GHz, and the measured data set were used to obtain an empirical formula for computing the dielectric constant. The empirical formula obtained in this study was proven by other soil samples.

Nonthermal plasma hybridized with photocatalysts is proven to be an effective tool to degrade toxic organics in wastewater. In this study, a specially designed dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma system combined with photocatalysts was applied to decompose pestiticides such as dichlorovos, carbofuran and methidathon, which are frequently used in the golf courses and the orange plantations. The degradations of the pesticides in single and coupled systems were evaluated. The single system was used with ozone plasma which consisted of electrons, radicals, ions produced by oxygen gas and air, with and without ultra-violet (UV) irradiation, respectively. The coupled systems utilized the air-derived ozone plasma combined with zinc oxide, titanium dioxide and graphite oxide photocatalyst activated by UV. The graphite oxide was synthesized by a modified Hummer's method and characterized using FTIR spectrometer. It was elucidated that the plasma reaction with graphite oxide (0.01 g/L) brought about almost 100% of degradation degrees for dichlorovos and carbofuran in 60 min, as compared with the performances showed by no catalyst condition. The photocatalyst-hybridized plasma in the presence of UV irradiation was proven to be an effective alternative for degrading pesticides.

$BaTiO_3$는 현재 전기 전자 부속 산업엣 필수적인 재료로서, multilayer capacitor,positive temperature coefficient(PTC) resistor, grain-boundary battier layer capacitor(GBBLC)등에 쓰이고 있다. $BaTiO_3$의 전기적 특성을 최대화하기 위해서는 미세구조가 최적화 되어야만 하는데 일반적으로 수 마이트로 이내의 작고 균일한 크기의 입자크기가 바람직하다. 그러나 $BaTiO_3$계에서 화학양론의 조성이 정확하게 일치하지 않거나 $La^{3+}$나 $Nb^{5+}$같은 첨가제가 들어가지 않으면 비정상 입자 성장은 자발적으로 일어난다. 그러나 첨가제는 $BaTiO_3$의 강자성 특성에 영향을 주게 되므로 첨가제 없이 비정상 입자 성장을 억제할 수 있는 것이 바람직한 방법이며, 이 것이 본 실험의 목표이다. 본 실험에서는 0.4-mol%-$TiO_2$가 첨가된 $BaTiO_3$ 분말을 디스크 형태로 성형하여 $H_2$ 분위기, 1250에서 5시간동안 열처리한 후, 공기 중, 1300도에서 48시간까지 소결한 후 미세조직을 관찰하였다. 소결 전에 $H_2$ 분위기에서 열처리를 함으로서 초기 입자 크기는 증가하게 되고 이로 인한 계의 성장 구동력 감소로 비정상 입자 성장이 억제되었으며 균일하고 미세한 입자 크기를 가지는$BaTiO_3$ 소결체를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 비정상이 억제되지 않은 $BaTiO_3$의 유전 특성보다 우수한 유전 특성을 나타내었다. 본 실험을 통해서 첨가제를 사용하지 않고 우수한 유전 특성을 가지는 미세한 균일한 입자의 $BaTiO_3$를 제조하는 새로운 기술을 개발하였다.

This paper presents an optimized design of a millimeter-wave on-chip dipole antenna using CMOS process. The serious flaw of the antenna using CMOS process is low radiation efficiency because of high permittivity and conductivity. To overcome the weakness, we need to widen radiation area in air and optimize distance between an antenna and a reflector. The radiation efficiency and bandwidth of the designed antenna are respectively 16.5 % and 22.3 % at 80 GHz. Systematic methods are attempt to analyze an effect on the antenna radiation efficiency. To widen radiation area in air, substrate cut angle and distance between the antenna and chip edge are adjusted. In addition, to optimize distance between an antenna and reflector, substrate thickness and distance between the antenna and a circuit ground plane are adjusted.

We fabricated thick film monopole antennas using Li-doped BiNbO$_4$ ceramics and investigated their electrical properties as a function of the Li-doping concentration. Compared with undoped BiNbO$_4$ ceramics, addition of Li$_2$CO$_3$ improved dielectric constant by increasing of ionic polarization, but reduced quality value by increasing of lattice distortion. Antenna properties like gain, bandwidth and radiation patterns were also greatly affected by the addition of Li$_2$CO$_3$. With increasing amount of Li$_2$CO$_3$, the bandwidth of ceramic monopole antenna was increased to 81.7 %, but the gain was reduced to -10.03 dBi. Also radiation patterns were so distorted and showed low dB value by increasing of dielectric loss.
