In this paper, as the mobile communication service is widely used and the demand for wireless repeaters is rapidly increasing because of the easiness of extending service areas. But a wireless repeater has a problem the oscillation due to feedback signal. We proposed a new hybrid interference canceller using the adaptive filter with CMA(Constant Modulus Algorithm)-Grouped LMS(Least Mean Square) algorithm in the adaptive interference canceller. The proposed interference canceller has better channel adaptive performance and a lower MSE(Mean Square Error) than conventional structure because it uses the cancellation method of Grouped LMS algorithm. The proposed detector uses the LMS algorithms with two different step size to reduce mean square error and to obtain fast convergence. This structure reduces the number of iterations for the same MSE performance and hardware complexity compared to conventional nonlinear interference canceller.

There is a rapid increase in the use of digital video information in recent years. Especially, user requires the environment which retrieves video from passive access to active access, to be more efficiently. we need to implement video retrieval system including video parsing, clustering, and browsing to satisfy user's requirement. In this paper, we first divide video sequence to shots which are primary unit for automatic indexing, using a hybrid method with mixing histogram method and pixel-based method. After the shot boundaries are detected, corresponding key frames can be extracted. Key frames are very important portion because they help to understand overall contents of video. In this paper, we first analyze camera operation in video and then select different number of key frames depend on shot complexity. At last, we compose panorama images from shots which are containing panning or tilting in order to provide more useful and understandable browsing environment to users.

Multitasking and microtasking on the CRAY machine provides still another way to improve computational power. Since CRAY-2 has 4 processors we can achieve speedup up to 4 properly designed algorithms. In this paper we present two parallelizations of linear system solution in the CRAY-2 with multitasking and microtasking library. One is the LU decomposition on the dense matrices and the other is the iterative solution of large sparse linear systems with the preconditioner proposed by Radicati di Brozolo. In the first case we realized a speedup of 1.3 with 2 processors for a matrix of dimension 600 with the multitasking and in the second case a speedup of around 3 with 4 processors for a matrix of dimension 600 with the multitasking and in the second case a speedup of around 3 with 4 processors for a matrix of dimension 8192 with the microtasking. In the first case the speedup is limited because of the nonuniform vector lenghts. In the second case the ILU(0) preconditioner with Radicati's technique seem to realize a reasonable high speedup with 4 processors.

In this study, the machine vision system for inspection using color recognition method have been designed and developed to automatically sort out a specified material such as Cu scraps or other non-ferrous metal scraps mixed in Fe scraps. The system consists of a CCD camera, light sources, a frame grabber, conveying devices and an air nozzled ejector, and is program-controlled by a image processing algorithm. The ejector is designed to be operated by an I/O interface communication with a hardware controller. The sorting examination results show that the efficiency of separating Cu scraps from the Fe scraps mixed with Cu scraps is around 90 % at the conveying speed of 15 m/min. and the system is proven to be excellent in terms of its efficiency. Therefore, it is expected that the system can be commercialized in shredder firms, if the high-speed automated sorting system will be realized.

This study evaluated comparison of the risk according to the type of fuel by three-dimensional simulation tool(FLACS). The consequence analysis of fire explosion and jet-fire was carried out in the layout of a typical high-pressure gas filling stations using CNG, hydrogen and 30%HCNG. Under the same conditions, hydrogen had a 30kPa maximum overpressure, CNG had a 0.4kPa and HCNG had a 3.5kPa. HCNG overpressure was 7.75 times higher than the CNG measurement, but HCNG overpressure was only 11.7% compared to hydrogen. In case of flame propagation, hydrogen had a very fast propagation characteristics. On the other hand, CNG and HCNG flame propagation velocity and distance tended to be relatively safe in comparison to hydrogen. The estimated flame boundary distance by jet-fire of hydrogen was a 5.5m, CNG was a 3.4m and HCNG was a 3.9m.

New polyelectrolytes derived from ionene-containing photocurable reactive oligomer (PIDM) were prepared for water-resistant humidity-sensitive membranes. The mixture of PIDM, hexamethylene dimethacrylate (HDM), pentaerythritol triacrylate dimer (SP1013), and photoinitiator was simultaneously coated on the sensor electrode with photoinitiated radical polymerization. The pretreatment of the substrates with vinyl-type silane-coupling reagent was performed for improving the water durability and stability of the sensors at high temperature and humidity. When the resistance dependences on the relative humidity of the crosslinked PIDMs were measured, it was found that the resistance varied three orders of magnitude between 20 and 90%RH, which was required for the humidity sensor operating at ambient humidity. Their hysteresis, temperature dependence, response time, water durability, and high temperature/humidity stabilities were measured and evaluated as a humidity-sensing membrane.

일반적으로 GaN-based light emitting diodes(LEDs)는 Top layer위에 금속박막으로 contact을 형성하고 있으며 광소자 구성에 있어 빛은 이러한 금속 contact을 통과할 수 없다. 그러나 만약 이러한 contact이 투명전도막으로 구성될 수 있다면 보다 효율적인 광소자의 구성이 기대되어진다. 특히 GaN photodetector, GaN-based LEDs, GaN vertical cavity surface emitting lasers(VCSELs)등의 소자형성에 있어 투명전도막 contact은 매우 중요하며 그 응용에 앞서 기본적인 구조적, 전기적, 광학적 특성에 대한 연구가 반드시 선행되어져야 한다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 이러한 투명전도막으로써 Indium Tin Oxide(ITO)를 사용하였으며 박막형태의 contact으로 제조하여 n-GaN, p-GaN와 corning glass위에 e-beam evaporation법로써 제조하였다. 또한 각 n-, p-type과 corning glass위에 증착된 ITO박막의 구조적 특성을 분석하기 위하여 x-ray diffractometry(XRD)와 Auger electron spectroscopy(AES)등을 사용하였으며 전기적 특성을 측정하기 위하여 four point probe를 사용하였고 그들의 I-V 곡선을 측정하였다. 또한 UV spectrometry를 사용하여 그들의 광학적 특성을 측정하고자 하였다. ITO 박막의 제조에 있어 기판은 초음파 유기세정 후 HCl과 H2O2(1:1)의 혼합용액을 사용하여 GaO2를 제거하고자 하였으며 이후 초순수로 세척하여 사용하였다. 초기 진공도는 3$\times$10-5 Torr이하였으며 기판온도 50$0^{\circ}C$에서 0.6 /s의 증착속도로 약 2000 증착하였다. 이렇게 제조된 ITO 박막은 5$\times$10-5 Torr이하의 진공분위기에서 $600^{\circ}C$로 열처리를 실시하였으며 열처리 시간의 변화에 따른 그들의 전기적, 구조적, 광학적 특성을 측정하였다. 열처리 과정을 통한 ITO박막은 투과도는 420nm의 영역에서 80%이상을 나타내었으며 이때의 면저항은 약 50ohm/ 이었다. 또한 I-V 곡선 측정에 의한 contact특성의 측정결과 열처리 전의 ITO contact은 n-GaN와 n-GaN에 대해 각각 ohmic과 schottky contact의 일반적인 contact 특성을 나타내었다. 그러나 이러한 contact 특성은 열처리 시간의 변화에 따라 변화하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

최근, 비정질 산화물 반도체 thin film transistor (TFT)는 수소화된 비정질 실리콘 TFT와 비교하여 높은 이동도와 큰 on/off 전류비, 낮은 구동 전압을 가짐으로써 빠른 속도가 요구되는 차세대 투명 디스플레이의 TFT로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 한편, 기존의 MOSFET 제작 시 우수한 박막을 얻기 위해서는 $500^{\circ}C$ 이상의 높은 열처리 온도가 필수적이며 이는 유리 기판과 플라스틱 기판에 적용하는 것이 적합하지 않고 높은 온도에서 수 시간 동안 열처리를 수행해야 하므로 공정 시간 및 비용이 증가하게 된다는 단점이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 RF sputter를 이용하여 증착된 비정질 InGaZnO pesudo MOSFET 소자를 제작하였으며, thermal 열처리와 microwave 열처리 방식에 따른 전기적 특성을 비교 및 분석하고 각 열처리 방식의 열처리 온도 및 조건을 최적화하였다. P-type bulk silicon 위에 산화막이 100 nm 형성된 기판에 RF 스퍼터링을 이용하여 InGaZnO 분말을 각각 1:1:2mol% 조성비로 혼합하여 소결한 타겟을 사용하여 70 nm 두께의 InGaZnO를 증착하였다. 연속해서 Photolithography 공정과 BOE(30:1) 습식 식각 과정을 이용해 활성화 영역을 형성하여 소자를 제작하였다. 제작 된 소자는 pseudo MOSFET 구조이며, 프로브 탐침을 증착 된 채널층 표면에 직접 접촉시켜 소스와 드레인 역할을 대체하여 동작시킬 수 있어 전기적 특성을 간단하고 간략화된 공정과정으로 분석할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 열처리 조건으로는 thermal 열처리의 경우, furnace를 이용하여 각각 $300^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$에서 30분 동안 N2 가스 분위기에서 열처리를 실시하였고, microwave 열처리는 microwave를 이용하여 각각 400 W, 600 W, 800 W, 1000 W로 20분 동안 실시하였다. 그 결과, furnace를 이용하여 열처리한 소자와 비교하여 microwave 를 통해 열처리한 소자에서 subthreshold swing (SS), threshold voltage (Vth), mobility 등이 개선되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서, microwave 열처리 공정은 향후 저온 공정을 요구하는 MOSFET 제작 시의 훌륭한 대안으로 사용 될 것으로 기대된다.

In this work, vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) technique was applied for the determination of %EE of chiral compounds. It may provide an easy way to determine the %EE with a proper accuracy within 2% error ranges as well as the absolute configuration of enantiomers. We demonstrated herein a flow cell VCD (FT-VCD) technique for time-dependent %EE measurements. The simultaneous monitoring of the mole fraction and %EE for two chiral species (epichlorohydrin and glycidol mixture) in the mixture was shown to be successful without any further separation steps. Thus, we demonstrate that FT-VCD is an appropriate analytical tool to monitor the kinetics of reactions involving chiral molecules. FT-VCD also provides a convenient nondestructive approach for the time dependent determination of the optical purity of individual components in a reaction mixture containing chiral molecules.
