In this paper, we present E-band bond-wire modeling and a matching network to compensate for the effect of the bond-wire. The impedance of the bond-wires is extracted using three-dimensional electromagnetic simulation. The matching network was designed using a simple structure. The implemented matching network was verified with a commercial 71~81 GHz LNA IC and an interconnection based on the WR-12 waveguide. The matching network increases the transmission coefficient of the system by up to 4.5 dB, power gain by up to 3.12 dB, $P_{1dB}$ by up to 2.2 dB, and improves the gain flatness by ${\pm}1.07dB$.

반도체 소자의 크기가 45 nm 이하로 감소함에 따라 최소 선폭에 따른 다층 배선 연결 구조가 요구되고 있다. 그러나 고집적화 구조는 기생 저항과 정전 용량에 의한 신호지연증가 및 혼선 전력 소모의 문제가 발생한다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위한 방법 중의 하나는 저저항 배선연결물질과 층간 절연막으로 저유전 상수를 갖는 물질을 사용하는 것이다. 본 연구는 DEMS $(H-Si(CH_3)(OC_2H_5)_2)$ 전구체를 이용하여 저유전막을 증착할 때 사용되는 PECVD (plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) 장비를 국내 기술로 개발하고 개발된 장비로 저유전박막을 평가한 것에 관한 것이다. 본 연구에서 평가 및 박막 종확 시 사용한 장비는 MAHA hp 1 type ((주)아토)로서 양산용 PECVD 장비이다. 변수는 C-He의 유랑, 300 mm Si 웨이퍼와 shower head 사이의 거리, 증착 압력, 구동 전력이고, 증착된 저유전막의 두께, 두께의 균일성, 굴절률, 굴절률의 균일성를 평가하였다. 구동 전력이 500W 일 때, C-He의 유량과 진공의 크기를 감소시키면 박막의 두께가 감소하고 박막의 균일성은 증가하였다. C-He의 유량을 증가시키고 shower head 와 Si 웨이퍼 사이의 거리 및 구동 압력을 감소시키면 굴절률과 굴절률의 균일성이 모두 저하되었다. 구동 전력이 700W 일 때, 박막 두께의 경우, 구동 전력이 500W 일 때의 결과와 유사하지만, 박막의 균일성, 굴절률, 굴절률의 균일성은 모든 조건에서 저하되었다.

In this paper, we propose the internal mobile antenna for TDMB and KPCS. The proposed antenna is made of different dielectric substrate and it has small size ($45{\times}8{\times}8\;mm$, about 2.8 cc) for mobile device. TDMB antenna is designed spiral structure that makes maximum current for each cell and KPCS antenna is PIFA that is usually used for internal antenna. In order to compensate length of resonance TDMB antenna has a large inductor above 100 nH. In this case, the inductor isolate KPCS signal at TDMB by cutting high frequency. Also the antenna has good isolation because TDMB radiator is parasitic element in KPCS band. We simulated the antenna by using CST microwave studio and measured performance of the antenna in anechoic chamber Proposed antenna has $-6{\sim}-14\;dBi$ gain for TDMB and $-3.5{\sim}-5\;dBi$ gain for KPCS.

In this paper, the design for a PCS base station antenna which is using broadband method by a stacked structure has been studied. The sensitive parameters, such as the parasitic elements, the height of air layer between the upper and lower patch, and the variation of feed point, of the microstrip antenna that has stacked structure in a characteristics variation situation are classified and the characteristics has been investigated through the simulations. A designed antenna has following characters. Impedance bandwidth is Z57.5MHz(VSWR${\leq}$2), horizontal beamwidth is $64.1^{\circ}$, and gain is 14.7dBi. Therefore, it is confirmed the characteristics is good. In this paper, through the designing of a stacked microstrip antenna, we has investigated the availability for Korea PCS base station antenna.

Since most reference voltage generator circuits have bi-stable characteristics, it is important to employ a proper start-up circuit to operate a reference generator in the desired state. In this paper, we propose a start-up circuit for a low voltage reference generator. This start-up circuit determines the state of the circuit reliably by measuring the current drawn by BJTs in the circuit, which is well-defined in the desired state. To measure the current using CMOS-compatible devices only, a comparator with an internal offset voltage is used. The reliability of the proposed circuit is confirmed by Monte-Carlo simulations of the start-up operation, which show that, with the proposed start-up circuit, the low voltage reference generator starts reliably with supply voltages over 850mV even in the presence of device mismatches.

A new electronically stopband tunable filter is proposed with three-input single-output using Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) in this paper. The proposed filter provides band pass, low pass and high pass multifunctional responses. Centre frequency ($f_c$) and quality factor (Q) of the realized filters could independently tuned without disturbing each other. Various network sensitivity and non-ideal characteristic analysis are done to check the sensitivity and parasitic effect of different circuit parameters. The CMOS realization of filter is done with 1.8V-0.18um process parameters and HSPICE simulation results are presented to assert the presented theory.

The recent interest in the design of filters is motivatied by the fact that such filter can be fully integrated using standard metal-oxide-semiconductor processing technology. This is due to replacing all the resistors in the active RC filter network by the switched capacitors. The voltage gain of a SC filter depends only on the rations of capacitance and these ratios can be obtained and maintained to high accuracy. Therefore, it is known that a switched capacitor is much better than a resistor in temperature and linearity characteristics. This paper proposed a programmable SC filter and proved the fact that ${omega}_0$ Q and G of this circuit can be controlled by digital signal. Experiments show that SC filter remains the low sensitivities but it can't avoid little influence of parasitic capacitance. As the transfer characteristic of the SC filter is varied with sampling frequency and resistor array, SC filtering technigue can be applied for digital processing, speech analysis and synthesis and so on.

In this paper, we propose a small broadband antenna for mobile device. The proposed antenna consists of a printed rectangular monopole antenna and a parastic element connected to ground using narrow meander line and it is designed on a FR-4 substrate that has a thickness of 0.8 mm and a dielectric constant of 4.4. The FR-4 substrate's size is 50 mm${\times}$90 mm comparable to the real mobile device. The fabricated antenna's size is 12.5 mm${\times}$10.5 mm${\times}$0.8 mm and the measurement shows -10 dB return loss bandwidth of 2,200~6,000 MHz and gains of 2.86~4.01 dBi. Accordingly, the proposed antenna can support mobile device for WiBro(2,300~2,380 MHz), WLAN(IEEE 802.11b/g/n: 2,400~2,480 MHz, IEEE 802.11a: 5,150~5,825 MHz), and mobile WiMAX(IEEE 802.16e : 2,500~2,690 MHz, 3,400~3,600 MHz) service bands.

In this paper, applying the REC model which characterizes the coupling between the radiating edges to two coupled rectangular microstrip patch antenna, we obtain scattering parameters $\mid$ $S_{11}$ $\mid$ and $\mid$ $S_{12}$ $\mid$for the various coupling separations, Se=0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, and 2.0mm, The calculated values are compared with the measured values. For the rectangular microstrip patch antenna with a parasitic element which is gap-coupled to the radiating edges of the rectangular patch, calculated return losses using the REC model are compared with measrued values. Here, the each microstrip antenna is fed by a 50 microstrip line. The purpose of the paper is to compare a 50$\Omega$ microstrip line fed case with a coaxial fed case treated in Ref.

A new design of four-pass dye laser amplifier affording a narrow-bandwidth pulsed output is demonstrated to suppress the amplified spontaneous emission(ASE) carried by the amplifier output and reduce the possibility of parasitic oscillation in the amplifier. By the direct pulsed amplification of a cw 100 mW dye laser under a Q-switched doubled Nd:YAG laser pumping with energy of 5.6 mJ/pulse, high-peak-power pulsed output with 1.5-mJ energy in 130-MHz bandwidth is obtained corresponding to a power gain greater than $2{\times}10^6$ and an energy efficiency of 27%. The ASE ratio in the four-pass amplifier output is dramatically reduced by using a diffraction grating in the amplifier. Compared with the results obtained from the normal operation of the amplifier with no frequency-selective device, the ASE ratio is reduced by a factor in excess of 10 to remain under 1.5% of the amplifier output whereas the total output energy is slightly increased by ~4%.
