  • In this study, a pyrene-core single molecule with amino (-NH2) functional group material was hybridized using ZnO quantum dots (QDs). The suppressed performance of the 1-aminopyrene (1-PyNH2) single molecule as an emissive layer (EML) in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) was exploited by adopting the ZnO@1-PyNH2 core-shell structure. Unlike pristine 1-PyNH2 molecules, the ZnO@1-PyNH2 hybrid QDs formed energy proximity levels that enabled charge transfer. This result can be interpreted as an improvement in surface roughness. The uniform and homogeneous EML alleviates dark-spot degradation. Moreover, LEDs with the ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TFB/EML/TPBi/LiF/Al configuration were fabricated to evaluate the performance of two emissive materials, where pristine-1-PyNH2 molecules and ZnO@1-PyNH2 QDs were used as the EML materials to verify the improvement in electrical characteristics. The ZnO@1-PyNH2 LEDs exhibited blue luminescence at 443 nm (FWHM = 49 nm), with a turn-on voltage of 4 V, maximum luminance of 1500 cd/m2, maximum luminous efficiency of 0.66 cd/A, and power efficiency of 0.41 lm/W.

  • Proper discharge of nitrogen gas and water condensate is required in a conventional fuel cell system for performance, stability and durability of fuel cell stacks. Present study covers the development of integrated unit and its functioning logic for simultaneous nitrogen gas purge and water condensate drainage in a fuel cell vehicle system. Configuration of condensate drainage pipe, purge valve and level sensor is considered and optimized in physical integration. As a key factor, discharge time is considered and optimized based on the test result of constant-current operation with various operating temperature in logic development. Consequently, derived optimal values are applied and verified in actual vehicle drive mode test. Increase of system design flexibility, weight reduction and cost reduction are anticipated with this study. Additional study for physical and logical improvement is currently being implemented.

  • This paper reports a filtered velocity feedback(FVF) controller, which is an alternative to direct velocity feedback(DVFB) controller. The instability problems at high frequencies due to non-collocated sensor/actuator configuration with the DVFB can be alleviated by the proposed FVF controller. The FVF controller is designed to filter out the unstable high frequency response. The dynamics of a clamped plate under forces and moments and the FVF controllers are formulated. The stability of the control system and performance are investigated with the open loop transfer function(OLTF). It is found that the FVF controller has a higher gain margin than the corresponding DVFB controller owing to the rapid roll-off behavior at high frequencies. Although the gain margin cannot be fully utilized because of the enhancement at the high frequencies, the vibration at the modes lower than the tuning frequency is well controlled. This performance of the FVF controller is shown to be improved from that of the DVFB controller. It is, however, noted that the stability around the tuning frequency is very sensitive so that the enhancement in vibration level should be followed. The reduction performance at low frequencies using the FVF controller should be compromised with the enhancement in the vibration at high frequencies while designing the controller.

  • In this study, we have researched for a high-efficiency display with low power, less complicated configuration, and more attractive features than using conventional displays (CRT, LCD, LED, etc.) by manufacturing a propeller display using the POV(Persistence of Vision) phenomenon. After setting the reference point using the Hall sensor, the channel recognition signal and voice recognition signal are transmitted to the display using Bluetooth through the mobile phone application created based on the App program, and the display performs different operations according to the commanded Bluetooth signal. Finally, it was confirmed that the desired information is expressed on the display screen at a motor speed of 1,030 rpm.

  • Active acoustic array signal was measured in the East Sea and the South sea and spatial coherence was analyzed. The measurement of ambient noise, target reflection signal, sea surface backscattering signals took place including environmental measurements of sea wind, and vertical temperature profiles. The spatial coherence of ambient noise was lower than that of target reflection signal in the South Sea. The spatial coherence of target reflection signal was above 0.5 over all array length. The spatial coherence of sea surface backscattering signal was higher in high incident angle. The maximum non-dimensional array length was 3.0 ($26^{\circ}$) and 3.5 ($32^{\circ}$) to have spatial coherence above 0.5 in the East Sea. To find a design criteria for array configuration and array performance, more measurements of temporal and spatial coherence will be needed continuously in the future.

  • SAR data can be achieved independently of weather conditions or sun illumination which is main limitation of electro-optical sensor to get image. The information from imagery can be more enlarged using Shh data be-cause SAR data offers different information from electro-optical sensor. SAR data contains various distortions caused by the radar specification and geometric properties of data acquisition. These distortions should be removed to get the information with acceptable accuracy. In this study, we aimed to correct the radiometric distortion in Shh image caused by the geometric property of the object. For this purpose, we simulated the SAR image by modelling of the power of return beam which is variable according to the geometric configuration between SAR antenna and ground object. Dividing the SAR image by the simulation image, then, we can get the radiometrically corrected image. As a result of this study, we could minimize the effect of radiometric distortion in achieving some qualitative information from SAR image for the related field, such as Geospatial Information System.

  • A FET-type reference electrode(REFET) is an effective method to eliminate typical problems with ISFET(ion sensitive field-effect transistor) such as drift, temperature, light-dependence and miniaturization of reference electrode. However, it is difficult to make the highly reliable REFET with excellent long-term stability and reproducibility. In this paper, an ion-blocking membrane was applied to the REFET for the PET-type electrolyte sensors(pH, pNa-ISFET). The fabricated REFET indicated the stable sensitivity (55.4 mV/pH, 53.5 mV/decade) and good linearity in the pH and pNa measurement. In the measurement, ISFET/Pt/REFET configuration showed excellent stability and reproducibility.

  • This paper verifies the performance of the wireless-signal map-matching (WSMM) method that is recently proposed to mitigate the effects of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) error in positioning under wireless terrestrial network environments. The WSMM method is the new positioning technology that estimates and compensate the NLOS errors by processing the bulks of anonymous measurements at unknown locations that are collected randomly and automatically. The WSMM method would be advantageous for various configurations of future ubiquitous sensor networks since it is based on the existing network configuration for communication and it requires no additional hardware in base stations and mobile handsets. It is shown that the application of the WSMM concept to the real CDMA pilot strength measurment message (PSMM) actually mitigates the NLOS error effects and improves overall positioning accuracy.

  • Because of the limited power resource, we need a reliable low-power media access control technique suitable for unmaned remote sensor operation condition for the unmanned sensor processor to perform the task in the remote wireless network situation. Therefore CSMA/CA and X-MAC is generally considered to effectively transmit the signal in the low-power wireless network. In this paper, we propose the more efficient low-power LP-MAC Technique which consumes the minimum power and transmits the data faster in condition that the mobile nodes' joining to and leaving from the network which consists of the fixed nodes is fluid. The fixed nodes operate in an asynchronous mode to perform the network self-configuration and transmit data faster to the mobile node which is frequently join and leave the network. When the mobile node leaves the network, the network's operation mode will be synchronous mode to achieve the minimum power consumption, thus the minimum power operation becomes possible.
