In this paper, an optical touch panel device is newly proposed, with operating principle based on the optical coupling between a pointing pen having a built-in light source and perpendicularly crossed optical waveguide arrays. In order to enable an external light to couple into a waveguide core, the auxiliary pyramidal structures are introduced into all intersecting points located periodically along optical waveguides. The shape is optimized for minimizing the unwanted propagation loss due to the same structure by a ray tracing method. For the optical waveguide with the size of $50{\times}50{\mu}m^2$, the bottom width, height, and slope angle of the optimized pyramidal structure are $50{\mu}m$, $22.5{\mu}m$, and $42^{\circ}$, respectively. The optical coupling efficiency of about 97.8% and the average propagation loss of 0.3 dB/mm were achieved for the optimized touch panel. Finally, it is found from the tolerance analysis that tilting of the pen up to ${\pm}12^{\circ}$ can be allowed.

In this paper, for both transmission and reception with single antenna system of satellite communication, dual-frequency antennas which operate simultaneously at 12.5 GHz and at 14.25 GHz are designed, constructed and measured. Also by using dual feeding structure, the problems of single-fed dual-frequency antenna such as the separation of transmitting and receiving signals and single polarization, are solved. Microstrip patch as a radiation element of dual-fed dual-frequency antenna has width and length which are the resonance lengths of the corresponding frequencies for transmission and reception, respectively. The effects of the feed line on the other frequency feeding are minimized with the optimal matching scheme for the feed lines. For solving the space problems of dual-fed two-dimensional array antennas, microstrip-line and coaxial probe feedings are used for each frequency and a two-dimensional $2\times2$ array antenna was designed and measured their characteristics. The experimental results show that errors of resonance frequencies are less than 1.44%, the return losses are less than -21 dB and the isolations between two feeding ports are less than -21 dB. The characteristics of radiation patterns of dual frequency microstrip antenna are measured and evaluated. The directivities, sidelobe levels and cross polarizations are also measured and compared with the simulations. The results show some errors due to the misalignment of coaxial probe feeding.

In this paper, we propose 1×2 array antenna with dual linear polarization characteristics for mmWave band operation. The proposed antenna is designed two microstirp feeding structure and FR-4 substrate, which is thickness 0.4 mm, and the dielectric constant is 4.3. The size of 1×2 array antenna is 2.33 mm×2.33 mm, and total size of array antenna is 13.0 mm×6.90 mm. From the fabrication and measurement results, bandwidths of 1.13 GHz (28.52~29.65 GHz) for port 1 and 1.08 GHz (28.45~29.53 GHz) for port 2 were obtained based on the impedance bandwidth. Cross polarization ratios are obtained from 7.68 dBi to 16.90 dBi in case of vertical polarization, and from 7.46 dBi to 15.97 dBi in case of horizontal polarization for input port 1, respectively. Also, cross polarization ratios are obtained from 8.59 dBi to 13.72 dBi in case of vertical polarization and from 9.03 dB to 14.0 dB in case of horizontal polarization for input port 2, respectively.

To improve the skirt characteristic of the high-temperature superconducting filter, we proposed a structure of cascading two independent hairpin-comb filters with an identical frequency response. Resonators of the cascaded filter are arranged in the shape of a diamond so that it minimizes the cross coupling between the resonators. This structure can be used effectively to improve the skirt characteristic of the filter in limited area of a circular wafer. The simulated skirt characteristic of the 18 pole cascaded filter is more than 40dB/MHz attenuation below and above the passband.

Occlusal disharmony is frequently observed among edentulous patients. When artificial teeth come into contact, the unfavorable displacing force may lead to the discomfort, mucosal trauma, or even neuromuscular alterations and emotional disturbances. An optimal occlusal scheme is a critical factor for successful complete dentures. For this case, an edentulous patient with significant interarch size discrepancy due to mandibular prognathism contributing to inadequate function of dentures was treated with complete dentures. The posterior cross-bite tooth setup for compensating the abnormal jaw relations provided a stable and retentive complete denture prosthesis, which was considered adequate by both patient and dentist.

To obtain denture retention, support, and stability in Class III edentulous cases with flat alveolar ridges and extensive flabby tissue is very difficult. The patient was a 72-year-old male who wore ill-fitting 20 year old dentures made by non-medical institutions. There was flabby tissue on the maxillary anterior ridge. The patient showed Angle Class III skeletal relationship with severe protruded mandible. First, temporary dentures were fabricated to restore the masticatory function, and final dentures were made through non- pressure impression technique and careful the arrangement of the posterior resin teeth. Improvement of the retention and stability of the denture during the occlusal force application is reported.

Anti-skin aging agent could be have an inhibition effect of ROS production as well as fragmentation and change of collagen cross linkage in collagen molecule. For the monitoring of lipid peroxidation and collagen degradation, the skin of young and old rats were incised and observed 7 days. In the result, the wound closure was observed in the skin from 10 of 11 young rats and in 8 of 11 old rats. And the longer wound length but shorter wound closure, weaker collagen density and thicker epidermis were observed in old rats than in young rats. The level of hydroxyproline as a parameter of collagen synthesis and MDA as a parameter of lipid peroxidation was lower in old group than in young group. The cyst and lacuna between collagen bundle and fibroblast were observed in old rats in contrast to young rats. So that we propose that MDA and hydroxyproline could be used for monitoring of anti-skin aging agent.

The stereoscopic camera based on the image formation principle on human eyes and the brain is designed and fabricated by using a CCD and two zoom lenses. As two zoom lenses are separated as 65 mm of the human ocular distance with the wide angle of view of $50^{\circ}$ and the variable convergence angle from $0^{\circ}$ to $16^{\circ}$, the camera can be operated by the similar binocular parallax as human eyes. In order to take the dynamic stereoscopic picture, a shutter blade for the selection of the left and right images in turns, an X-cube image combiner fur the composition of these two images through the blade, and a CCD with 60 frames per second are used.

Pt(001)의 깨끗한 표면은 재배열된 (5x20) 또는 (nxn) 구조를 갖는다. 이러한 재배열된 구조는 소？의 가스를 흡착에 대해서도 (1x1)구조로 다시 재배열되는 재배열인 쉽게 풀리는 준안정적 재배열 구조를 갖는 표면이다. Pt(100) 표면 위에 Ni과 같은 금속을 흡착시키는 경우도 동일하게 표면의 장력을 해소시켜 (1x1) 표면을 만든다. Pt와 Ni과 같은 덩어리 상태에서 Pt와 Ni가 질서있게 교차되어 배열되는 합금이 쉽게 이루어지는 물질들로 잘 알려져 있고, 이 합금은 Pt나 Ni와 동일한 규칙적인 fcc 구조를 갖는다. 따라서 Pt(100) 표면 위에 Ni를 흡착시키는 것은 Nm/Cu(100)과 같은 표면합금이나 Mn/Ag(1000에서 보이는 2층으로 된 표면 합금과 같은 표면 근방에 국한된 질서있는 표면 합금의 가능성이 있다. 또한 Ni/Pt(100)은 Ni과 Pt가 3대 1의 비로 조합될 때 나타나는 Ni3Pt의 층별구조인 표면에 Ni가 채워져 있고, 다음 층에 Ni와 Pt가 50%씩 질서 있게 섞여 있는 형태의 구조 즉 표면 밑 합금이 나타날 수 있는 가능성이 있는 물질계라는 점에서 관심을 갖게 한다. 본 연구는 LEED를 이용하여 Ni/Pt(100) 박막의 층별구조를 확인하고자 한다. PtNi 합금은 ATA(average t-matirx approximation)을 이용한 LEED 분석이 잘 적용되는 물질계로 알려져 있고, 본 연구는 ATA를 적용한 LEED I/V 분석을 통하여 Ni가 성장된 Pt(100) 표면의층별 농도비와 층별 구조를 구하고자 한다. 실험은 기본 압력이 3x10-11torr인 챔버에서 이루어졌으며, 증착시 압력은 5x10 torr이고, 증착은 열증발 방법을 이용하였다. Ni가 증착됨에 따라 (nxn) 재배열 표면에 기인한 extra spot들의 세기는 점차 감소하고 특정 증착량 이상에서부터 이 (nxn)의 spot들이 사라지고 깨끗한 (1x1) 패턴이 나타난다. 계속되는 증착량의 증가에 대해서도 이 (1x1) 형태는 유지되며, 표면의 질서에 따르는 c(2x20 패턴은 보이지 않았다. (1x1) LEED spot를 보임에도 불구하고 덩어리 절단 형태의 구조를 기반으로 한 LEED I/V 분석으로는 잘 맞출수 없었다. 이것은 Ni가 일정 이상 흡착된 경우 그 구조가 덩어리 절단 형태의 fcc(100) 구조와 벗어난 구조를 가지는 것으로 보인다.
