During PEMFC operation, OCV(open circuit voltage) and low humidity conditions accelerate the degradation of perfluorosulfonic acid membrane. There have been no studies that clearly explain why these conditions accelerate the membrane degradation. In this study, the hydrogen permeability through the membrane, I-V polarization of MEA, fluoride emission rate(FER) and $H_2O_2$ concentration in condensed water were measured during cell operation under OCV and low relative humidity(RH). The experimental results were evaluated with oxygen radical mechanism the most commonly known for membrane degradation. It seems that low RH of anode is a good condition for $H{\cdot}$ radical formation on the Pt catalyst and the OCV condition accelerate the $H{\cdot}$ to form $HO_2{\cdot}$ radical attacking the polymer membrane.

Platinum (Pt) is an easily moldable, anti-corrosive and also good catalyst in a variety of chemical reactions. Platinum can be used in many fields, however, however, the low wettability of platinum substrate in many platinum-based devices has been made a problem when they contact with liquid state environment. In this study, we report a simple and effective self-assembled monolayer coating method which provides tremendously increased wettability on platinum substrate device by using Sodium 3-mercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid solution. After surface modifications, water contact angle of the surfaces displayed less than $10^{\circ}$, representing that surfaces are successfully coated to be super-hydrophilic surface by simple dip coating method.

Monolayers of pure surfactant squaraine, DSSQ(4-distearyl amino phenyl-4'-dimethylaminophenylsquaraine), were deposited on $SnO_2 $ electrodes by the Langmuir-Blodgett film technique. The DSSQ film exhibits ${\lambda}_{max}$ at ∼530 nm. The absorption is significantly red-shifted from the solution of DSSQ (633 nm in chloroform), suggesting that the squaraine chromophores form aggregates in the LB film. The photogeneration of the squaraine aggregates is studied by measuring the photocurrents in photoelectrochemical cells consisting of the squaraine of the aggregates is found to parallel its absorption spectrum and quantum efficiency as high as 0.3% has been observed. While the photocurrent was attenuated exponentially when stearic acid layers (up to 8 layers) are inserted between the squaraine layer and the electrode, it is nearly extinguished when the squaraine layer is over-coated with 2 layers of stearic acid. A model for the observation is proposed and the roles of the electrolytes and oxygen on the photogeneration process will be discussed.

In this study, we successfully fabricated a super-hydrophobic polymer layer on the surface of slide glass using the solubility difference of a polymer at two different solvents. After dissolving polystyrene (PS) resins in tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a good solvent and then adding ethanol(EtOH) as a poor solvent, we were able to fabricate super-hydrophobic surface. We also investigated the effect of EtOH addition, coating methods, solution mixing time and speed, and other alcohols on the surface hydrophobicity. The water contact angle (WCA) of the fabricated surface revealed $WCA>150^{\circ}$ and the microporous surface structure composed of microparticles with the size less than $5\;{\mu}m$.

국내에서 영한 자동번역 시스템을 1985 년부터 개발한 지 벌써 15년이 흐르고 있다. 15 년의 영한 자동번역 기술개발에도 불구하고 아직도 영한 자동번역 시스템의 번역품질은 40%를 넘지 못하고 있다. 이렇게 번역품질이 낮은 이유는 다음과 같이 요약할 수 있을 것이다. o 입력문에 대해 파싱할 때 오른쪽 경계를 잘못 인식함으로써 구조적 모호성의 발생문제: 예를 들어 등위 접속절에서 오른쪽 등위절이 등위 접속절에 포함되는 지의 모호성. o 번역 단위로써 전체 문장을 대상으로 한 번역패턴이 아닌 구나 절과 같은 부분적인 번역패턴으로 인한 문장 전체의 잘못된 번역 결과 발생. o 점차 증가하는 대용량 번역지식의 구축과 관련해 새로 구축되는 번역 지식과 기구축된 대용량 번역지식들 간의 상호 충돌로 인한 번역 품질의 저하. 이러한 심각한 원인들을 극복하기 위해 본 논문에서는 문틀에 기반한 새로운 영한 자동번역 방법론을 소개하고자 한다. 이 문틀에 기반한 영한 자동번역 방법론은 현재 CNN뉴스 방송 자막을 대상으로 한 영한 자동번역 시스템에서 실제 활용되고 있다. 이 방법론은 기본적으로 data-driven 방법론에 속하다. 문틀 기반 자동번역 방법론은 규칙기반 자동번역 방법론보다는 낮은 단계에서 예제 기반 자동번역 방법론보다는 높은 단계에서 번역을 하는 번역방법론이다. 이 방법론은 영한 자동번역에 뿐만 아니라 다른 언어쌍에서의 번역에도 적용할 수 있을 것이다.

Double-layered polymer films to assay the radioactive contamination were formulated using polysulfone (PSF) and cerium activated yttrium silicate (CAYS), consisting of a dense support layer and a CAYS-holding top layer prepared via the diffusion-induced phase inversion. As the vapor exposure process was omitted, the CAYS-holding layer showed a typical asymmetric structure, with CAYS being transfixed into the polymer network spread with large macropores. With the increase in vapor exposure time before immersion, morphology of the films transformed from asymmetric to sponge-like structures, with CAYS being localized in cellular structure. The border structure between the two layers reflects the phase inversion behavior of a cast solution during the coagulation. In the radioactive detection, the polymer phase in a film holding a sponge-like structure is so dense that the radionuclides, deposited on the film, could not filter through the phase, consequently resulting in the loss in the detection efficiency of the film.

The degradation of the Nafion membrane by oxygen radical (OH, $HO_2$) was investigated in Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Nafion membrane was degraded in Fenton solution consisted with hydrogen peroxide (10-30％) and ferrous ion (1-4 ppm) at $80^{\circ}C$. After degradation in Fenton solution, C-F, S-O and C-O chemical bonds of membrane were broken by oxygen radical attack. Breaking of C-F bond reduced the mechanical strength of Nafion membrane, and hence induced pinholes, resulting in increase of $H_2$ crossover through the membrane. Decomposition of S-O and C-O bonds decreased the ion exchange capacity of the electrolyte membrane. The performance of unit cell composed the membrane, which was degraded in 30％ $H_2O_2$ with 4ppm $Fe^{2+}$ solution for 48 hr, was about half times as low as one with normal membrane.

The growth of multimedia technology forces the development of video detection for large database management and illegal copy detection. To meet this demand, this paper proposes a fast video detection method to apply to a large database. The fast video detection algorithm uses spatial features using the gray value distribution from frames and temporal features using the temporal similarity map. We form the video signature using the extracted spatial feature and temporal feature, and carry out a stepwise matching method. The performance was evaluated by accuracy, extraction and matching time, and signature size using the original videos and their modified versions such as brightness change, lossy compression, text/logo overlay. We show empirical parameter selection and the experimental results for the simple matching method using only spatial feature and compare the results with existing algorithms. According to the experimental results, the proposed method has good performance in accuracy, processing time, and signature size. Therefore, the proposed fast detection algorithm is suitable for video detection with the large database.

With the advancement of the digital broadcasting and popularity of the Internet, recently, many studies are making on the digital watermarking for the copyright protection of digital data. This paper proposes the minimum modification method of motion vector to minimize the degradation of video quality, hiding subtitles of many language and information of OST(original sound track), character profiles, etc. as well as the copyright protection. Our proposed algorithm extracts feature vector by comparing motion vector data with watermark data, and minimize the modification of motion vectors by deciding the inversion of bit. Thus the degradation of video quality is minimized comparing to conventional algorithms. This algorithm also can check data integrity, and retrieve embedded hidden data simply and blindly. And our proposed scheme can be useful for conventional MPEG-1, -2 standards without any increment of bit rate in the compressed video domain. The experimental result shows that the proposed scheme obtains better video quality than other previous algorithms by about $0.5{\sim}1.5dB$.
