A new high performance and low cost unified power system is proposed through investigating conventional Power-Integrated Drive(PID) system and Power-Separated Drive(PSD) system applied to LCD TV. Since the proposed system consists of two stage, namely power and inverter stage it features high efficiency and cost effectiveness. To satisfy the safety standard of the High voltage transformer, 1:1 transformer is employed between inverter and high voltage transformer. Moreover, to ensure the Zero Voltage Switching(ZVS) of all power switches and the Pulse Count Modulation(PCM) method is employed, which controls the number of pulse at the fixed frequency and fixed duty cycle. Therefore, it features high efficiency, improved heat generation, cost effectiveness and good EMI performance including no additional current balancing coil. To confirm the validity of proposed system, comparison of conventional system, verification of experimental results are presented.

디스플레이 화소 스위치 소자로 수소화된 비정질 실리콘 박막 트랜지스터를 금속 산화물 반도체 박막 트랜지스터(thin film transistor, TFT)로 대체하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 금속 산화물 중에서 박막 트랜지스터의 활성층으로 응용이 가능한 가장 대표적인 물질은 인듐(In), 갈륨(Ga), 아연(Zn), 산소(O) 화합물인 InGaZnO이다. InGaZnO TFT의 전기적 특성은 비정질 실리콘보다 우수한 것으로 확인이 되었지만, 소자의 신뢰성은 아직까지 해결해야 할 문제로 남아있다. 본 연구에서는 InGaZnO TFT를 제작하여 게이트 바이어스와 빛을 소자에 동시에 인가했을 때 발생하는 소자의 열화현상을 분석하였다. 다양한 채널 폭과 길이를 갖는 InGaZnO TFT를 제작하고 동시에 활성층의 구조를 두가지로 제작하였다. 첫번째는 활성층의 폭이 소오스/드레인 전극 폭보다 넓은 구조(active wide, AW)이고 두번째는 활성층의 폭이 소오스/드레인 전극 폭보다 좁은 구조(active narrow, AN) 구조이다. 이들 소자에 대해 +20 V의 게이트 바이어스와 빛을 동시에 인가하여 10000초 후의 소자 특성을 초기 특성과 비교하였을 때는 열화가 거의 발생하지 않았다. 반면 -20 V의 게이트 바이어스와 빛을 동시에 인가하여 10000초 후의 소자 특성을 초기 특성과 비교하면 전달특성 곡선이 음의 게이트 전압 방향으로 이동함과 동시에 문턱전압이하의 동작 영역에서 전달특성 곡선의 hump가 발생하였다. 이 hump 특성은 AW 구조의 소자와 AN 구조의 소자에서 나타나는 정도가 다름을 확인하였다. 이러한 열화 현상의 원인으로 음의 게이트 바이어스와 빛이 동시에 인가될 경우 InGaZnO 박막 내에는 활성층 내에 캐리어 밀도를 증가시키는 donor type의 defect가 발생하는 것으로 추정할 수 있었다. 추가적으로 활성층의 테두리 영역에서는 이러한 defect의 발생이 더 많이 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 활성층의 테두리 영역이 소오스/드레인 전극과 직접 연결이 되는 AN 구조에서는 hump의 발생정도가 AW 구조보다 더 심하게 발생한 것으로 분석되었다.

Complex materials are widely used in aviation industries where lightweighting is essential because they have lighter properties than metals. However, composite materials can cause defects such as internal void formation, poor adhesive mixing, and non-adhesive parts during the production process, and there is a risk of micro-cracking and interlayer separation due to low energy impact. Therefore, a structural damage test is essential. As a result, structural integrity monitoring using FBG is drawing attention. Compared to conventional electrical sensors, FBG has the advantage of being more corrosion-resistant and multiplexed without being affected by electrical noise. However, interloggers measuring FBG are expensive and have a large disadvantage because they are made on the premise of measuring large structures. In this paper, low-cost interloggers were designed for use in unmanned or small aircraft using optical switche, WDM filter, and LTFs, and compared to conventional high-priced interrogator.

In general, life jackets are worn by people in critical situations on the water to rise to the surface without falling into water, and life jackets simply serve to prevent sinking, but do not actively help rescue disaster areas in critical situations early. In order to solve this problem, a device that automatically generates a distress signal in an emergency situation was developed. When the survivor is in hand for a while, the distress signal generator is automatically separated from the life jacket, allowing information such as location values and other information to be transmitted wirelessly and a rescue signal using LED light. As a result of the experiment, when submerged in water, the life jacket and the distress signal generator were automatically separated, and the result of wireless transmission of the coordinate value of the location received by the GPS was confirmed. By using this, the location of the distress or missing person can be identified, which can be quickly replaced in case of an emergency

The problem of power consumption and the limitation of a chip area should be considered when the pixel number of the edge detection circuit increases to fabricate a vision chip for edge detection with high resolution. The numeric increment of the unit circuit causes power consumption to increase and require a larger chip area. An increment of power consumption and a limitation of chip area with several ten milli-meters square supplied by the CMOS foundry company restrict the pixel numbers of the edge detection circuit. In this paper, we proposed a electronic switch to minimize the power consumption owing to the numeric increment of the edge detection circuit to realize a vision chip for edge detection with high resolution. We also applied a method by which photodetector and edge detection circuit are separated to implement a vision chip with a higher resolution. The photodetector circuit with $128{\times}128$ pixels uses a common edge detection circuit with $1{\times}128$ pixels so that resolution was improved at the same chip area. The chip size is $4mm{\times}4mm$ and the power consumption was confirmed to be about 20mW using SPICE.

Optical burst switching(OBS) is a promising solution for building terabit optical routers and realizing If over WDM. Channel scheduling Algorithm for reduce contention is one of the major challenges in OBS. We address the issue of how to provide basic burst channel scheduling in optical burst switched WDM networks with fiber delay lines(FDLs). In OBS networks the control and payload components or a burst are sent separately with a time gap. If CHP arrives to burst switch node, because using scheduling algorithm for data burst, reservation resources such as wavelength and transmit data burst without O/E/O conversion, because contention and void between burst are happened at channel scheduling process for data burst that happened the link utilization and bust drop probability Existent proposed methods are become much research to solve these problems. Propose channel scheduling algorithm that use Release Time of bust to emphasize clearance between data and data dissipation that is happened in data assignment in this treatise and maximize bust drop probability and the resources use rate (RTUC : Release Time Unscheduled Channel). As simulation results, Confirmed that is more superior in terms of data drop and link utilization than scheduling algorithm that is proposed existing. As simulation results, confirmed improved performance than scheduling algorithm that is proposed existing in terms of survival of burst, efficiency resource and delay. However, In case load were less, degradation confirmed than existent scheduling algorithm relatively, and confirmed that is superior in data drop aspect in case of load increased.

We separated the multilayer structure of CD-R(compact disk-recordable) and investigated optimal spot marking conditions and physical and chemical transitions in response to various laser beam energh levels. Spot marking(80 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ spot size) was produced on the surface of each layer using a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser between 27 mJ and 373mJ. By investigating resulting pit formation with Optical Microscopy(OM) and Optical Coherence Tomography(OCT), we analyzed the formation process of spot marking in the multilayer structure of different chemical composition. The localized heating of the substrate in the multilayer thin film caused the short temporal thermal expansion, and absorbed optical energy between reflective and dye interfaces melted dye and increased the volume. During the cooling phase, formation of pit and surrounding rim can be explained by three distinct processes; effect of surface tension, evaporation by spontaneous temperature increase due to laser energy, and mass flow from the recoil pressure. Our results shows that the spot marking formation process in the multilayer thin film is closely related to the layers' physical, chemical, and optical properties, such as surface tension, melt viscosity, layer thickness, and chemical composition.
