Cellulose based electroactive paper(EAPap) has been developed as a new smart material due to its advantages of piezoelectricity, large displacement, low power consumption, low cost and flexibility. EAPap can be used for a surface acoustic wave (SAW) device using the piezoelectric property of EAPap, resulting in the cost effective and flexible SAW device. In this paper, inter digit transducer(IDT) structure using lift-off technique with a finger gap of 10mm was used for micro fabrication of the cellulose EAPap SAW devices. The performance of IDT patterned SAW device was characterized by a Network Analyzer. The feasibility of cellulose EAPap as a potential acoustic device was presented and explained.

본 논문에서는 H1N1 인플루엔자 A 바이러스(influenza A H1N1 virus) 검출을 위한 산화아연 나노구조(zinc oxide nano structure) 기반의 전기화학적 면역센서를 제작하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. H1N1 인플루엔자 A 바이러스는 빠른 전파 속도 때문에 정확하고 빠른 검출이 필요하다. 먼저, 2 $mm^2$의 표면적을 갖는 패턴된 금 전극 위에 열수방식(hydrothermal method)으로 성장시킨 산화아연 나노구조가 선택적으로 형성되도록 리프트-오프(lift-off) 방법을 사용하였다. 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline(pH 7.4)에서 2 ${\mu}g$/mL 농도의 1차 항체를 정전기력에 의해 산화아연 나노구조에 고정화한 후, 10 pg/mL ~ 5ng/mL 농도의 H1N1 항원을 적용하여 포획 항체에 결합시키고 HRP(horseradish peroxidase) 효소가 결합된 검출 항체를 항원에 결합시키는 샌드위치 ELISA법을 이용하였다. HRP와 반응하는 TMB(3,3', 5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine)와 과산화수소가 포함된 acetate buffered 용액(pH 5)을 전해질로 사용하고 순환전압전류 측정법(cyclic voltammetry)으로 센서의 특성을 분석하였다. 측정된 순환전압전류그래프(cyclic voltammogram)에서 H1N1 항원 농도 10 pg/mL ~ 5 ng/mL의 응답 전류는 276.47 ${\pm}$ 21.72 nA (평균 ${\pm}$ 표준편차, n=4) ~ 478.89 ${\pm}$ 6.21 nA로 측정되었고, logarithmic하게 증가하는 응답 전류 특성을 보였다.

In this paper, we present the results of the wear analysis of journal bearings on a stripped-down single-cylinder engine during start-up and coast-down by motoring. We calculate journal bearing wear by using a modified specific wear rate considering the fractional film defect coefficient and load-sharing ratio for the asperity portion of a mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) regime coupled with previously presented graphical data of experimental lifetime linear wear in radial journal bearings. Based on the calculated wear depth, we obtain a new oil film thickness for every crank angle. By examination of the oil film thickness, we determine whether the oil film thickness at the wear scar region is in a mixed lubrication regime by comparing dimensionless oil film thickness, h/σ, to 3.0 at every crank angle. We present the lift-off speed and the crank angles involved with the wear calculation for bearings #1 and #2. The dimensionless oil film thickness, h/σ, illustrates whether the lubrication region between the two surfaces is still within the bounds of the mixed lubrication regime after scarring of the surface by wear. In addition, we present in tables the asperity contact pressure, the real minimum film thickness at the wear scar region, the modified specific wear rate, and the wear angle, α, for bearings #1 & #2. To show the real shape of the oil film at wear scar region, we depict the actual oil film thickness in graphs. We also tabulated the ranges of bearing angles related with wear scar. We present the wear volume for bearings #1 and #2 after one turn-on and turn-off of the engine ignition switch for five kinds of equivalent surface roughness. We show that the accumulated wear volume after a single turn-on and turn-off of an ignition switch normally increases with increasing surface roughness, with a few exceptions.

This paper presents a wear analysis procedure for the journal bearings on a stripped-down single-cylinder engine during start-up and coast-down by motoring. A journal bearing is in the mixed elastohydrodynamic (EHL) lubrication region when the shaft speed is less than the corresponding lift-off speed. Below the lift-off speed, a wear scar can form on bearing surfaces. In part 1 of this paper, we develop the appropriate formulations and the calculation procedure for the analysis. Specifically, we formulate an equation for modified film thickness in a journal bearing considering the additional wear volume. In order to obtain the modified specific wear rate induced by the modified Archard’s wear coefficient, we utilized the extended non-dimensional diagram for the specific wear rate, k, the fractional film defect coefficient, Ψ and the asperity load sharing factor, γ₂. This asperity load sharing factor is newly calculated by setting the Zhao-Maietta-Chang (ZMC) asperity contact pressure equation coupled with the central film thickness equation derived by using the ZMC asperity contact model equal to the modified central contact pressure derived by using the central (or maximum) contact pressure at the dry rough line-contact configuration. We can use the procedure introduced in this paper to determine the lifetime (or longterm) linear wear in radial journal bearings that is a result of repeated stop-start cycles.

상변화 메모리는 비휘발성 메모리이면서 빠른 동작 속도, 낮은 동작 전압 등 다양한 장점을 지니고 있어 차세대 메모리로 주목 받고 있다. 최근 상변화 메모리의 동작 전류를 감소시키기 위해 상변화 물질 및 전극 물질에 대한 연구를 진행하고 있으며, 소자의 크기를 최소화 하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 나노 임프린트 리소그래피와 전도성 AFM을 이용하여 나노급 상변화 물질의 특성을 평가하였다. 나노급 상변화 물질을 형성하기 위해 열경화성 나노 임프린트 리소그래피를 이용하여 $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$(GST)/Mo/SiO2 기판 위에 200nm급 홀 패턴을 형성하였다. 홀 패턴에 Cr을 증착하여 리프트 오프 한 뒤 Cr을 하드 마스크로 사용하여 GST를 식각하였다. 그 결과, Mo 하부 전극 위에200nm 지름과 100nm 높이를 가지는 GST 나노 기둥을 형성하였다. GST 나노 기둥의 전기적 특성 평가를 위해 저항 측정 장비 및 펄스 발생기와AFM을 사용하였다. AFM은 접촉 모드로 설정하였으며, Pt가 코팅된 AFM tip을 사용하여 Cr 하드 마스크와 함께 상부 전극으로 사용하였다. GST 나노 기둥을 초기화 시키기 위해 I-V sweep을 하였으며, 그 결과 $1M\Omega$에서 $10\;k\Omega$으로 저항이 변화함을 확인하였다. GST 나노 기둥은 2V, 5ns의 리셋 펄스에서 비정질로 변화하였으며, 1.3V, 150ns의 셋 펄스에서 결정질로 변화하였다. 이 동작 전압으로 5번의 스위칭 특성을 평가하였으며, 이 결과는 소자 형태의 200nm 급GST의 특성과 유사하여 나노급 상변화 물질을 테스트하는 새로운 방법으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Magnetic nondestructive testing is very useful far detecting a crack on the surface or near of the surface of the ferromagnetic materials. The distribution of the magnetic flux leakage (DMFL) on a specimen has to be obtained quantitatively to evaluate the crack. The magnetic camera is proposed to obtain the DMFL at the large lift-off. The magnetic camera consists of a magnetic source, magnetic lens, analog to digital converters (ADCs), interface, and computer. The magnetic leakage fields or the distorted magnetic fields from the object, which are concentrated on the magnetic lens, are converted to analog electrical signals tv arrayed small magnetic sensors. These analog signals are converted to digital signals by the ADCs, and are stored, imaged, and processed by the interface and computer. However the magnetic camera has limitations with respect to converting and switching speed, full range and resolution, direct memory access (DMA), temporary storage speed and volume because common ADCs were used. Improved techniques, such as those that introduce the operational amplifier (OP-Amp), amplify the signal, reduce the connection line, and use the low pass filter (LPF) to increase the signal to noise ratio are necessary. This paper proposes the exclusive embedded ADC including OP-Amp, LPF, microprocessor and DMA circuit for the magnetic camera to satisfy the conditions mentioned above.

Defects generated in a railroad track that guides the railroad vehicle have the characteristic of growing fast; as such, the detection technology for railroad track defects is very important because defects can eventually cause mass disasters like derailments. In this study, a speed-up test facility was fabricated to investigate the feasibility of using magnetic flux leakage (MFL) technology for defect detection in a railroad track under speed-up condition; a test was conducted using a railroad track specimen with defects. For this purpose, an MFL sensor head dedicated to the configuration of the railroad was designed and test specimens with artificial defects on their surfaces were manufactured. Using the test facility, a speed-up test ranging from 4km/h to 12km/h was performed and defects including locations were successfully detected from MFL signals induced by defects with enhanced visibility by differentiating raw MFL signals. In the future, it should be possible to apply this system to a high-speed railroad inspection car by improving the lift-off stability that is necessary for speed-up of the developed MFL sensor system.
