A computer code for Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) is developed to sense the cross sectional phase distribution of two-phase flow in the rectangular pipe in which the tomography sensor furnished by the insulated wall, electrodes, and electric field screen. The computer code had two steps for the image reconstruction. In the forward projection step, the sensitivity matrix was constructed based on the electric field calculated by the finite difference method. In the backward projection step, the sensitivity matrix and the measured capacitances were used to reconstruct the cross sectional image. Several algorithms including LBP, TR, ITR, and PLI were employed to find the proper one for the two-phase flow analysis. Since the dielectric constant of the water in two-phase flow is sensitive to the thermal parameter such as, temperature and pressure, the developed code was evaluated to find their accuracy, speed of calculation, and sensitivity to the variation of the dielectric constant. It was found that the iterative methods are superior to the direct methods for the image reconstruction, and the PLI method was the best in the variation of the dielectric constants.

In this paper, an inkjet-printed capacitive touch pad is proposed. This touch pad detects contacts of human finger by detecting changes in effective capacitance due to electrical impedance of human finger. A flexible, low-cost and disposable paper is used as a substrate. Inkjet printing technology makes the fabrication fast, simple and environmentally friendly. Measured capacitances of the touched and untouched states are in the range of 163 to 182pF and 218 to 272pF, respectively. The differences in the measured capacitance of each state are sufficiently large to recognize that a finger has made contact with touch pad.

Through SCM modeling, we found that the depletion layer in silicon was of a form of a spherical capacitor with the SCM tip biased. Two-dimensional (2D) finite differential method code with a successive over relaxation (SOR) solver has been developed to model the measurements by SCM of a semiconductor wafer that contains an ion-implanted impurity region. Then, we theoretically analyzed the spherical capacitor and determined the total depleted-volume charge Q, capacitance C, and the rate of capacitance change with bias dC/dV. It is very important to observe the depleted carriers' movement in the silicon layer by applying the bias to the tip. So, we calculated the depleted-volume charge, considering different factors such as tip size, oxide thickness, and applied bias (dc+ac), which have an influence on potential and depletion charges.

고분자유기물로 사용되는 발광층에 탄소나노튜브를 합성하여 AC로 구동되는 고분자유기물소자를 제작하였다. 고분자유기물소자는 총 4개의 층(ITO/CRS/탄소나노튜브를 함유한 MEH-PPV/Al)으로 구성하였다. ITO가 코팅된 유리기판 위에 발광층을 보호하는 역할을 하는 절연층[cyanoethyl pullulan(CRS)], 유기발광물질인 poly[2-methoxy-5-(2-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene-vinylene](MEH-PPV)에 탄소나노튜브의 함량을 조절하여 발광층으로 사용하였으며, 절연층과 발광층은 스핀코우터를 이용하여 증착하다. 마지막으로 thermal evaporator을 이용하여 Al을 증착하였다. 고분자유기물소자는 발광층에 함유된 탄소나노튜브에 함량에 따른 전압, 전류 그리고 밝기 특성을 분석하였다. 탄소나노튜브가 0.015wt% 함유된 고분자유기물소자에서 최대 밝기 특성과 낮은 소비전력을 얻을 수 있었다. 고분자유기물에 탄소나노튜브를 합성된 효과를 알아보기 위하여 임피던스분석을 통하여 고분자유기물소자의 저항, 캐패시턴스, 기생저항을 알아보았다. 고분자유기물소자의 캐패시턴스의 변화는 탄소나노튜브와 고분자 유기물(polymer-CNT matrix) 에서 생성되는 블록들이 매우 얇은 유전층을 구성할 것으로 예상되며 이는 micro-capacitance로 고분자유기물소자의 구동에 영향을 미치는 것으로 예상된다. AC구동 고분자유기물소자에 탄소나노튜브를 함유하여 높은 효율을 얻을 수 있는 장점으로 차세대 디스플레이나 조명으로 탄소나노튜브의 쓰임새를 기대해 본다.

The inaccuracy of the bias-dependent gate-drain overlap capacitance $C_{gdo}$ simulation in original BSIM4 and BSIM4 macro model using a diode is analyzed in detail. It is found that the accuracy of the macro model is better than of the BSIM4. However, the macro model cannot be used in the linear region. In order to remove the inaccuracy of the conventional models, a new BSIM4 macro model with a physical bias-dependent $C_{gdo}$ equation is proposed and its accuracy is validated in the full bias range.

In this paper, a couple of 10Gb/s transimpedance amplifiers are realized in a 0.18um standard CMOS technology for optical communication applications. First, the voltage-mode inverter TIA(I-TIA) exploits inverter input configuration to achieve larger effective gm, thus reducing the input impedance and increasing the bandwidth. I-TIA demonstrates $56dB{\Omega}$ transimpedance gain, 14GHz bandwidth for 0.25pF photodiode capacitance, and -16.5dBm optical sensitivity for 0.5A/W responsivity, 9dB extinction ration and $10^{-12}$ BER. However, both its inherent parasitic capacitance and the package parasitics deteriorate the bandwidth significantly, thus mandating very judicious circuit design. Meanwhile, the current-mode RGC TIA incorporates the regulated cascade input configuration, and thus isolates the large input parasitic capacitance from the bandwidth determination more effectively than the voltage-mode TIA. Also, the parasitic components give much less impact on its bandwidth. RGC TIA provides $60dB{\Omega}$ transimpedance gain, 10GHz bandwidth for 0.25pF photodiode capacitance, and -15.7dBm optical sensitivity for 0.5A/W responsivity, 9dB extinction ration and $10^{-12}$ BER. Main drawback is the power dissipation which is 4.5 times larger than the I-TIA.

The fabrication and analytical expression for the temperature dependent capacitance characteristics of inverted staggered hydrogenerated amorphous silicon thin film transistors(a-si :H TFT) from 303k to 363k were presented. The results show that the experimental capacitance-voltage characteristics at several temperatures are easily measured. Capacitance increased exponentially by gate voltage increase and decreased by temperature increase. C/C(max) ratio decreased at higher temperature, C/C(min) ratio increased at higher temperature.
