In order to measure the retina thickness, the retina photographing system and the multi-channel high speed image data acquisition system is developed. This system requires the optical processing techniques and the high speed image processing techniques. The HeNe laser beam is projected the retina in artificial eye and then we sensed the reflected laser signal using APD array. The laser projection system on retina using optical instruments is implemented. In order to project the plane laser beam on retina, laser photographing system used the polygon mirror for horizontal scanning and the galvano mirror for vertical scanning. We acquired retina images in each channel of APD array, transferred computer using PCI interface the image data after real-time A/D converting.

An optical receiver using a CMOS-compatible avalanche photodetector (CMOS-APD) is demonstrated. The CMOS-APD is fabricated with $0.18{\mu}m$ standard CMOS technology and the optical receiver is implemented by using the CMOS-APD and a transimpedance amplifier on a board. The optical receiver can detect 6.25-Gb/s data with the help of the series inductive peaking effect.

In this paper, a numerical permissible disturbance model is proposed to preserve a throughput performance of a 2.4 GHz wireless LAN service. The model is composed of two parameters, a peak value and a time rate of noise signal. The model parameters are experimentally determined from an APD parameter measurement. The APD parameter is measured by using the APD measurement method which is recommended from CISPR/A/447/CD.

This paper presents the reliability of planar InP/InGaAs avalanche photodiodes (APD's) with recess etching, which is very crucial for the commercial 10-Gb/s optical receiver application. A versatile design for the planar InP/InGaAs APD's and bias-temperature tests to evaluate long-term reliability at temperature from 200 to $250^{\circ}C$. The reliability is examined by accelerated life tests by monitoring dark current and breakdown voltage. The lifetime of the APD's is estimated by a degradation activation energy. Based on the test results, it is concluded that the planar InP/InGaAs APD's with recess etching shows the sufficient reliability for practical 10-Gb/s optical receivers.

One-year-old yellow-poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.) and sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua L.) seedlings were exposed to 0.10 ${\mu}l/l\;O_3$and simulated acid rain at pH 3.0 for ten consecutive weeks. Shoot height growth (SHG), fresh weight (FWT), dry weight (DWT), apparent plastochron duration (APD) and foliar nutrient concentrations were measured. None of growth measurements, except the apparent plastochron duration (APD), were significantly affected by any treatment in yellow-poplar seedlings. APD was approximately 30% higher in seedlings exposed to $0.1{\mu}l/l\;O_3$ ＋ pH 5.6 solution than any other treatment. Ozone significantly reduced SHG of sweetgum seedlings by 24% at the end of the ten-week fumigation. There were also significant effects of single and combined effects of ozone and simulated acid rain on APD in sweetgum. APD was significantly increased by 19.8% and 25.7% in seedlings exposed to $0.1{\mu}l/l\;O_3$ and pH 5.6 solution, respectively, and resulted in 46.1% higher APD in seedlings exposed to $0.1{\mu}l/l\;O_3$ + pH 5.6 solution compared with seedlings exposed to $0.0{\mu}l/l\;O_3$ ＋ pH 3.0 solution. Phosphorus and sulphur were significantly greater in seedlings exposed to simulated rain at pH 3.0 compared with pH 5.6 for both species. Foliar S concentration was higher in seedlings exposed to $0.0{\mu}l/l\;O_3$ ＋ pH 3.0 than in seedlings exposed to any other treatment in sweetgum. Ozone significantly increased Ca in sweetgum seedlings, however, ozone reduced Ca in yellow-poplar. Ozone also reduced S and Mg in sweetgum seedlings.

Dihydropyridine (DHP) calcium channel blockers (CCBs) have been widely used to treat of several cardiovascular diseases. An excessive shortening of action potential duration (APD) due to the reduction of $Ca^{2+}$ channel current ($I_{Ca}$) might increase the risk of arrhythmia. In this study we investigated the electrophysiological effects of nicardipine (NIC), isradipine (ISR), and amlodipine (AML) on the cardiac APD in rabbit Purkinje fibers, voltage-gated $K^+$ channel currents ($I_{Kr}$, $I_{Ks}$) and voltage-gated $Na^+$ channel current ($I_{Na}$). The concentration-dependent inhibition of $Ca^{2+}$ channel currents ($I_{Ca}$) was examined in rat cardiomyocytes; these CCBs have similar potency on $I_{Ca}$ channel blocking with $IC_{50}$ (the half-maximum inhibiting concentration) values of 0.142, 0.229, and 0.227 nM on NIC, ISR, and AML, respectively. However, ISR shortened both $APD_{50}$ and $APD_{90}$ already at $1{\mu}M$ whereas NIC and AML shortened $APD_{50}$ but not $APD_{90}$ up to $30{\mu}M$. According to ion channel studies, NIC and AML concentration-dependently inhibited $I_{Kr}$ and $I_{Ks}$ while ISR had only partial inhibitory effects (<50% at $30{\mu}M$). Inhibition of $I_{Na}$ was similarly observed in the three CCBs. Since the $I_{Kr}$ and $I_{Ks}$ mainly contribute to cardiac repolarization, their inhibition by NIC and AML could compensate for the AP shortening effects due to the block of $I_{Ca}$.

In this paper, since the APD(Avalanche Photo Diode) for LTV(Light to Voltage) conversion uses a high voltage in the operating range unlike other PD(Photo Diode)s, the quenching resistor must be connected in series to prevent overcurrent when using the TIA(Transimpedance Amplifier). In such a case, quenching resistance may affect the transfer function of the TIA circuit, resulting in serious stability. Therefore, in this paper, by analyzing the effect of APD quenching resistance on the voltage and current loop transfer function of TIA, we propose a loop analysis and a method for determining the quenching resistance value to improve stability. TIA circuit with quenching resistance was designed by the proposed method and the stability of operation was verified through simulation and chip fabrication.
