The purpose of this study was to improve the desalination performance by using split electrodes in the capacitive desalination process. The experiment was carried out by measuring the desalination efficiency of the NaCl aqueous solution according to the partitioning of the electrode at 20 mL/min flow rate, 1.2 V, 3 min adsorption conditions, and -1 V, 1 min desorption conditions. The desalination efficiency for the non-divided electrodes with a surface area of $146cm^2$ reached 40% while the divided electrode with a surface area of $133cm^2$ showed a desalination efficiency of 57%. The desalination efficiency of the same split electrode was 49% at 2 cm divided interval and 57% at 1cm divided interval. The desalination efficiency of the split electrode was higher than that of the normal CDI and narrower divided intervals increased the performance.

다중 전극으로 측정한 활동 전위의 분류(Multi-electrode spike sorting)는 단일 전극(single-electrode)보다 더 정확한 결과를 보여준다. 그러나 다중 전극에서 주어지는 활동 전위 크기들의 클러스터는 일반적으로 분류하기 쉴지 않은 문제이다. 이 논문에서는 고전적인 클러스터링 알고리듬 중의 하나인 Mountain method를 수정하여 다중 전극 활동전위의 분류에 적합한 알고리듬을 제안한다. 통상적인 데이터 클러스터링이 아닌 공간 분할을 통해 신경 데이터의 다양한 클러스터에 대해서 적응도가 높아지고 빠른 분류를 하게 된다.

Integrated-optic asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer at $1.3{\mu}m$ wavelength and segmented electrode structure were designed and fabricated as a sensing part for the electric-field measurement system. The device was simulated based on the BPM software and fabricated utilizing Ti-diffused $LiNbO_3$ channel optical waveguides and lumped-type electrodes. Almost half-maximum power transmission was observed for asymmetric interferometers with ${\pi}/2$ intrinsic phase difference. Expected experimental measurements were observed for 1KHz electrical signal bandwidth.

A method for designing a broadband transducer was investigated experimentally. Control of the resonance frequency of a Piezoelectric circular transducer with two pairs of electrodes was achieved by varying the inductance of external coil connected across the terminal of one pair of electrodes of transducer. The conductance curves of transducer in water were obtained as a function of the inductance value in mH of the coil used in the tuning. As the tuning inductance is increased in value, the resonance frequency is reduced toward the fundamental frequency of 50 kHz. This interesting result suggest that it is possible to produce a continuously tunable transducer covering a frequency range between 61.3 kHz and 121.7 kHz by varying the inductance value of external coil from 2.7 mH to 15.0 mH. One of other problems in the design and construction of such broadband transducer is the transducer efficiency, but this will be the subject of our future work.

In this study, a disk-type piezoelectric transformer was fabricated. Its diameter was 50 mm and thickness was 4.5 mm. The driving and generating electrode with their gap of 1mm were fabricated on the top surface. But the common electrode was fabricated on the whole bottom surface. The electrode surface of driving and generating part on the top surface was divided into 2, 4 and 8 pieces. The electrical characteristics with its electrode variation was measured in the range of load resistance of $100{\Omega}{\sim}10_{K\Omega}$. We investigated quantitively the influence of the set-up voltage ratio.

This study is to dvelop a radiotelemetry system to transmit and receive ECG (electrocardiograph) and event signals by using the frequency division multiplexing(FDM) technique. ECG signal sensed by the electrodes is amplified and added to the event signals acting in different frequency range for lead-off, nurse call and low level battery by using FDM. The sub-carrier oscillator using Colpitts circuits and main carrier frequency which is multiplied is frequency modulated by this superhetrodyne technique, and demodulated from the compose IF signal through the quadrature demodulator. A pulse counter demodulator and filtering circuits extract the original ECG and event signals.

In an electrical tomographic survey using an inclined borehole with a pole-dipole array, we must consider several factors: a singular point associated with zero potential difference, a spatial discrepancy between electrode and nodal point in a model due to a inclined borehole, and a variation of geometric factors in connection with a irregular topography. Singular points which are represented by the normal distance from current source to the ground surface can be represented by serveral regions due to a irregular topography of ground surface. The method of element division can be applied to the region in which the borehole is curved, inclined or the distance between the electrodes is shorter than that of nodal points, because the coordinate of each electrode cannot be assigned directly to the nodal point if several electrodes are in an element. Test on a three-dimensional (3-D) synthetic model produces good images of conductive target and shoves stable convergence.

Improvement of the radiation beam profile of a medical ultrasonic transducer has been researched in this paper. In order to improve the beam profile, a new transducer structure has been devised that includes both a shaded electrode and a multi-focus lens. For a linear sound source, the beam profile was investigated through finite element analysis, and then the optimal design of the devised structure was carried out by considering such performances as sidelobe level, focal range and beamwidth simultaneously. In the process, the optimal dimension of the devised structure was derived by using the ratio of the focal range to the minimum beamwidth as a performance index. As a result, the beam profile has been improved to have a lower sidelobe level at -20.2 dB and a consistent narrow beamwidth from 30 mm to 160 mm depth with the minimum beamwidth at 2.04 mm. Further, a prototype transducer was fabricated to have the devised structure, and its performance was measured and compared with the analysis results to confirm the validity of the devised transducer structure.

We suggest a method to measure and correct bending deformation in piezoelectric ceramics displacement. The angle and direction of the bending deformation are measured by monitoring the position of a laser beam reflected on a mirror which is attached to the piezoelectric ceramics with the uncertainty of the angle measurement of $0.36\mu$rad. We divided the electrode of a piezoelectric ceramic into 3 parts and connected 3 capacitors to each electrode in order to apply different voltage to each electrode with one voltage supplier. The deformation was corrected by adjusting the capacitance of each capacitor and was reduced to 6.3%, comparing to the uncorrected case. By using this corrected piezoelectric ceramic to modulate the length of the ringdown cavity, the fluctuation of the decay time caused by the change in optic axis of the cavity was removed.emoved.
