This paper presents a multi-functional microstrip spital antenna that operates in dual frequency bands. Several types of beam shape can be selected by controlling the phase difference of two spiral arms with the phase shifters located on each feed line. It has a normal beam at the lower frequency band, and four different patterns at the higher frequency band: normal beam, conical beam and two types of tilted beam. The antenna exhibits more than 10% of bandwidth at each band. The antenna is fabricated with conductor backed electromagnetic absorber in order to attain unidirectional radiation pattern and confirmed the multi-functionality by measurements.

Effect of finite substrate plane on the radiation characteristics of microstrip patch antennas is investigated. The variation of the characteristics of the radiation pattern due to the change of the length of a substrate is much larger than that due to the change of the width of a substrate. As the thickness of a substrate increases, the characteristics of the radiation pattern reveal more sensitive for the change of the size of a substrate.

We report the development of an optical micro-nanolithography method by using a roll-type mask. It includes phase-shift lithography and photolithography for realizing various target dimensions. For sub-wavelength resolution, a structure is achieved using the near-field exposure of a photoresist through a cylindrical phase-mask, allowing high-throughput continuous patterning. By using a film-type metal mask, continuous photolithography was achieved, and this method could be used to control the period of resultant patterns in real time by changing the rotating speed of the cylinder mask. As an application, we present the fabrication of a transparent electrode in the form of a metallic mesh by using the developed roll-type photolithography process. As a result, a transparent conductor with good properties was achieved by using a recently built cylindrical phase-shift lithography prototype, which was designed for patterning on 100-mm2 substrates.

Recently, mechanically beam-steering microstrip patch array antenna using MEMS technology is developed and tested. In this paper as an application of developed antenna, new radiation pattern synthesis method far beam-steering antenna without phase-shifter is proposed, and applied to synthesis of desired beam shape. Niching genetic algorithm using Restricted Competition Selection (RCS) is used for radiation pattern optimization. This approach can be applied to design of array antenna for meet EMC standard and through proposed method specific beam shapes can be synthesized.

RF characteristics of CPW(coplanar waveguide) pattern with bonding pads used in flip-chip packaging of GaAs is studied in the frequency range of 1 GHz to 35 GHz. Simulation, fabrication and evaluation are performed for the proposed patterns. Measurement results show proposed patterns have similar properties of $S_{11}$below -31 dB and $S_{21}$ above -0.19 dB with typical CPW In addition RF properties are improved with the increase of width of ground line. This indicates CPW structure with bonding pads keeps RF characteristics of typical CPW.

The etching characteristic of a tantalum thin film with pure chlorine plasma was studied using an electron cyclotron resonance etcher system. Optical emission actinometry (OEA) was used for the study of the etching mechanism of a tantalum thin film and optimum process condition was achieved by OEA study. Based on this mechanism, double step etching was performed and 0.15 $\mu\textrm{m}$ L & S was acquired successfully suppressing the microloading effect.

기능 유전체학에서 클러스터링 기법은 고차원의 마이크로 어레이 데이터 분석을 위한 주된 도구 중의 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 정보병목(information bottleneck)기법 기반의 이중 클러스터링에 의한, 유전자 발현 데이터의 계층적 병합방식 클러스터링 기법을 제안한다. 정보병목기법은, 두 랜덤변수의 결합확률분포가 주어진 경우 두 변수의 상호 정보량을 최대한 보존하면서 한 변수를 압축하는 기법이며, 두 변수를 차례로 압축하는 것이 이중 클러스터링이다. 실제 마이크로 어레이 데이터인 NC160 데이터(암세포 내 유전자 발현 데이터)에 대한 실험에서, 먼저 유전자를 그 발현패턴에 따라 클러스터링 한 후 이를 이용하여 표본들을 클러스터링하고 그 성능을 다각도로 분석하였다. 상호 정보량과 유전자 및 표본 클러스터 수와 엔트로피 척도에 의한 성능을 검토해 본 결과, 표본이 추출 조직에 따라 구분 가능할 것이라는 가정을 검증할 수 있었으며, 적절한 클러스터의 수를 결정할 수 있는 임계점의 기준을 설정할 수 있었다.

A microstrip array antenna is designed and tested for satellite broadcasting receptions. The Sierpinski equilateral triangular patch and SSFIP(slot-strip-foam-inverted patch) structures are used. This 1$\times$3 Sierpinski equilateral triangular patch antenna is extended to 8$\times$2 array antenna for satellite broadcasting receptions. The measurement results of the reflection coefficients and the radiation patterns of the manufactured array antenna show good agreements with the simulation results.

In order to increase the productivity of conventional microstereolithography, a new method using a digital micromirror device ($DMD^{TM}$) as the dynamic patter generator is proposed. The deviation from the level of clear optical images to the level of photopolymer surface is a key for the fabrication of an accurate 3D structure, so this deviation is minimized by controlling the viscosity of FA 1260T with organic solvents. After finding the appropriate process variables, the feasibility of microstructure fabrication such as a microgear and a microsphere is demonstrated. Microstereolithography with $DMD^{TM}$ showed the potential to replace the existing focused beam microstereolithography.
