Two configurations of Film Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators with acoustic quater-wave bragg reflector layers are theoretically analyzed using equivalent circuits and the difference of their characteristics are discussed. We compare the characteristics of λ/2 mode to those of ideal FBAR with top and bottom electrode contacting air and the characteristics of λ/4 mode to those of ideal FBAR with top electrode contacting air and bottom electrode clamped. We assume that the piezoelectric film is ZnO, the electrode is A1 and the substrate is Si, ABCD parameters are extracted and input impedance is calculated by converting the equivalent circuit from Mason equivalent circuits to the simplified equivalent circuits that ABCD parameters are extracted possible, From the variation of resonance frequency due to the change of thickness of reflector layers and the variation of electrical Q due to the change of mechanical Q of reflector layers, it is confirmed that the reflector layer just under the bottom electrode have the greatest effect on the varation of resonance frequency and electrical Q. It is shown that the number of reflector layers required for the saturation of electrical Q decreases with the increase of the impedance ratio of reflector layers and electrical Q of λ/2 mode is larger than that of λ/4 mode, Electromechanical coupling factor is independent of the number of layers, The impedance ratio of reflector layers becomes larger as the electromechanical coupling factor becomes larger, The electromechanical coupling factor of the two mode are smaller than those of ideal FBARs because of the trapping of acoustic energy in the reflector layers, The insertion loss of the ladder filter decreases with the increase of the number of reflector layers but the bandwidth is not affected much by the number of reflector layers, As the impedance ratio of reflector layers becomes larger the insertion loss becomes smaller and the bandwidth becomes wider, In our analysis of the two mode, characteristics of λ/2 mode appear to be slightly more favorable than that of λ/4 mode

With impedance spectrum measurements, impedance was studied in the interface between sample solutions for $K^+-ion$ selective PVC membrane electrode containing neutral carriers [dibenzo-18-crown-6 (D18Cr6) and valinomycine (Val)]. Response characteristics of electrode were examined by measuring AC impedance spectra that were resulted from the chemical structure and the content of carrier, variation of plasticizer, membrane thickness, doping of base electrolytes, and concentration variation of sample solution. Transport characteristics of PVC membrane electrode were also studied. It was found that the equivalent circuit for the membrane in $K^+$ solution could be expressed by a series combination of solution resistance and a parallel circuit consisting of the bulk resistance and geometric capacitance of the membrane system. But the charge transfer resistance and Warburg resistance were overlapped a little in the low concentration and low frequency ranges. The carrier, D18Cr6 was best for electrode and impedance characteristics, and ideal electrode characteristics were appeared especially in case of doping of the base electrolyte[potassium tetraphenylborate(TPB)]. The optimum carrier content was about 3.23 wt% in case of D18Cr6 and Val. DBP was best as a plasticizer. As membrane thickness decreased the impedance characteristics was improved, but electrode characteristics were lowered for membrane thickness below the optimum. In the case of D18Cr6, the selectivity coefficients by the mixed solution method for the $K^+$ ion were the order of $NH_4{^+}>Ca^{2+}>Mg^{2+}>Na^+$.

This paper proposes a floating-type wave energy conversion system that consists of a mechanical part (yo-yo vibrating system, motion rectifying system, and power transmission system) and electrical part (power generation system). The yo-yo vibrating system, which converts translational input to rotational motion, is modeled as a single degree-of-freedom system. It can amplify the wave input via the resonance phenomenon and enhance the energy conversion efficiency. The electromechanical model is established from impedance matching of the mechanical part to the electrical system. The performance was analyzed at various wave frequencies and damping ratios for a wave input acceleration of 0.14 g. The maximum output occurred at the resonance frequency and optimal load resistance, where the power conversion efficiency and electrical output power reached 48% and 290 W, respectively. Utilizing the resonance phenomenon was found to greatly enhance the performance of the wave energy converter, and there exists a maximum power point at the optimum load resistance.

A hybrid electrochemical capacitor having both characteristics of electric double layer capacitance and pseudo-capacitance was studied throughout cell tests. Asymmetric electrodes with $Ni(OH)_2/activated$ carbon based positive electrode and activated carbon based negative electrode were used in preparing test cells of $5\times5cm^2$. Cyclic voltammetry measurements and impedance measurements were conducted to understand electrochemical behavior of each electrode. To find an optimal mass ratio of negative to positive electrode, charge-discharge cycle tests were also performed.

In order to improve capacitance of activated carbon for electric double layer capacitors, peptide bond was induced on the surface of the activated carbon by urea. Urea induced activated carbon has been stabilized through carbonization. Electrochemical characteristics was observed by cyclic voltammetry for specific capacitance, electrochemical impedance spectroscope for measuring resistance and charge-discharge for testing the cyclic ability. In the result, specific capacitance is increased about 22.9% than the activated carbon. And it shows excellent cycle performance and decreasing resistance with the introduction of nitrogen functional groups.

In this paper, genetic algorithm (GA)-based Thin Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) RF filter design technique is proposed. Since the BVD(Butterworth-Van Dyke) lumped element model is valid only around the resonance, FBAR filter design technique based on BVD circuit has an approximate error. Instead of using BVD model, optimizing filter design method utilizes an analytical electrical impedance equation of FBAR. The geometry of FBAR such as thickness of the piezoelectric layer and area which significantly affect the filter response is optimized by GA. US-PCS Rx Bandpass filter obtained by the proposed technique shows a better response comparing with the typical and BVD-based filter.

The aim of the present study is to find out the effect of cooling rate on the electrical behavior of ZnO varistors. The microstructure, 1-V characteristics and complex impedance spectra were investigated under the change of cooling rates. It is found that at cooling rate $200^{\circ}$/h, nonlinearity and breakdown voltage reached a maximum value which may show that good intergranular layer is formed as a results of proper cooling rate. Complex Impedance spectras were measured as a function of frequency range 100Hz to 13MHz to determine grain and grainboundary resistance. The semicircles were attributed to the dependence of grain and grainboundary resistance on cooling rates.

프로세서 제어기기에서 오동작의 주요원인은 EFT로 국제전기기술위원회 (IEC)는 EFT에 대한 내성을 평가하기 위해 의사적인 신호를 규정하고 프로세서 제어기기의 내성을 시험하도록 권고하고 있다 본 논문에서는 IEC에서 규정한 의사 EFT신호를 Frequency domain에서 분석하고 이에 대한 대책용 부품개발에 대한 연구를 수행하였다 대책용 부품의 구성은 전원코드의 입력측에 관통형 컨덴서를 Cy 형태로 취부하고 전선자체에는 CM성분의 임피던스를 높이기 위해 고투자율 재료를 전선의 2차피복에 혼합하거나 감는 구조로 되어있다 그리고 전선자체에 CM성분의 임피던스를 높이는 고토자율 재료 대신에 Permalloy를 취부하여 비교하였다 측정 결과 개발된 전원코드는 EFT신호에 대해 넓은 주파수 대역에 걸쳐 매우 우수한 감쇠특성을 가지는 것이 확인되었다 특히 컴퓨터를 피즉정물로 하여 즉청한 dynamic 특성은 3.6Kv까지 견디는 우수한 특성을 나타내었다. 고안된 전원 케이블의 응용범위는 산업용 설비외에도 군용기기 의료기기등의 정상적인 동작확보에 사용될 수 있을 것이다 뿐만 아니라 사용방버에 따라 전원성을 통해 방사되는 EMI중 대책이 어려운 60MH이상 수GHz 대역의 발생전자파 대책에 좋은 특성을 가질 것으로 판단되면며 부품의 선택방법에 따라 EFT의에 IEC801-2,3,5,6, 모든 내성시험 항목에 효과가 기대된다.
