Objectives: We tried to confirm physical activity of 1,000 Kcal per week was a meaningful point in controlling coronary artery disease risks in female older adults. Methods: Participants were 66 female older adults recruited from senior welfare center. Participants were provided with accelerometer (e-step, Kenz, Japan) for measuring daily energy expenditure. Graded exercise test was done for measuring aerobic fitness. Blood glucose and lipid were analyzed. Framingham risk score was calculated based on blood glucose, blood lipid, and smoking. These variables were compared between the group expended more than 1,000 Kcal/week and the group with energy expenditure below 1,000 Kcal/week. Results: The group expended over 1,000kcal/week showed to be superior to the counterpart group in following variables; AC(Abdominal Circumference), %BF, $HR_{rest}$(resting heart rate), $VO_{2peak}$, FBG, LDL-C, TG, BDI-II, QOL, AR(Absolute Risk), RR(Relative Risk). Conclusions: The group expended over 1,000 Kcal/week was likely to have less probability in CAD than group expended less than 1,000 Kcal/week. The result of this study suggests the important role of active daily life that can be replaced with that of regular exercise especially for those who are not available to do structured exercise.

The transparent conducting oxides(TCOs) are widely used as electrodes for most flat panel display devices(FPDs), electrodes in solar cells and organic light emitting diodes(OLED). Among them, indium oxide materials are mostly used due to its high electrical conductivity and a high transmittance in the visible spectrum. The present study reports on a study of the electrical and optical properties of IGZO thin films prepared on glass and PET substrates by the combinational magnetron sputtering. We use the targets of IZO and Ga2O3 for the deposition process. In some case the deposition process is coupled with the End-Hall ion-beam treatment onto the substrates before the sputtering. In addition we control the deposition rate to optimize the film quality and to minimize the surface roughness. Then we investigate the effects of the Ar gas pressure and RF power during the sputtering process upon the electrical, optical and morphological properties of thin films. The properties of prepared IGZO thin films have been analyzed by using the XRD, AFM, a-step, 4-point probe, and UV spectrophotometer.

Empirical modeling of wireless fading channels using common schemes such as autoregression and the finite state Markov chain (FSMC) is investigated. The conceptual background of both channel structures and the establishment of their mutual dependence in a confined manner are presented. The novel contribution lies in the proposal of a new approach for deriving the state transition probabilities borrowed from economic disciplines, which has not been studied so far with respect to the modeling of FSMC wireless fading channels. The proposed approach is based on equal portioning of the received signal-to-noise ratio, realized by using an alternative probability construction that was initially highlighted by Tauchen. The associated statistical procedure shows that a first-order FSMC with a limited number of channel states can satisfactorily approximate fading. The computational overheads of the proposed technique are analyzed and proven to be less demanding compared to the conventional FSMC approach based on the level crossing rate. Simulations confirm the analytical results and promising performance of the new channel model based on the Tauchen approach without extra complexity costs.

Various depositional conditions, such as substrate, pressure, deposition time, temperature of substrate, power and gas composition, have mainly been studied to attain DLC films using RF sputtering system up to the current. In this study, the $N_2/Ar/CH_4$ gas mixture factored on characteristics of DLC deposited film such as structure, hardness, electrical property were investigated. The concentration of the $N_2$ gas in the sputtering gas may be a significant effect on the growth rate of the doped films, because nitrogen ions react not only with the carbon atoms on the target but also with $C_xH_y$ ions in the plasma on the substrate surface. It was seen from this experimental that the resistance of deposited film is decreased, and the relative intensity ratio of D to G peak is increased as nitrogen content of film deposition is increased.

The image sensitive PbO photoconductive films were fabricated ar several deposition conditions such as $O_2$ gas pressure, deposition rate, and substrate temperature. And the effects of these deposition condition on the structural and electrical properties of them were investigated with the aid of scanning electron photomicrographs. X-ray diffraction patterns, and current-valtage chatacteristics. The results show that when PbO film has red tetragonal structure and its dominant orientations are <110> and <010> direction, photocurrent-darkcurrent ratio and light transfer ratio are increase.

$(Y,Gd)BO_3$: Eu, $Zn_2$$SiO_4$ : Mn and $BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ : Eu phosphors used in PDP were continuously irradiated by vacuum ultra violet generated from the penning gas (96%Ar+4%Xe) discharge and then the change of emitting intensity with time was investigated. The brightness of these phosphors decreased exponentially with VUV excitation time. The experimental data showed that the degradation rate increased in the order of $Zn_2$$SiO_4$ : Mn>(Y,Gd)$BO_3$: Eu>$BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ : Eu phosphor. This different degradation property of phosphors was interpreted in terms of brightness saturation and stability against VUV irradiation. It was found that the degradation property of $(Y,Gd)BO_3$ : Eu red phosphor synthesized by ultrasonic thermal spray was superior to commercial phosphor.

Under atmospheric pressure, apparently homogeneous and stable plasma can be generated from insulator barrier rf plasma generators each of which has an rf powered cathode and a grounded anode covered with a dielectric insulating material. In order to characterize the generating plasma under atmospheric pressure, some basic characteristic have been evaluated by the Langmuire probe method as well as by optical emission spectroscopy. From the result of plasma characteristics, the generated plasma was verified to be nonequilibrium; T(electron)>T(excitation)>T(gas). High rate Si(100) etching (($1.5{\mu}m$/min) were achieved by using He plasma containing a small amount of $CF_4$.

본 논문에서는 컬러코드를 이용하여 증강현실 시스템에 사용 가능한 태그를 탐지하는 알고리즘을 설계하고 차단 현상에 강인한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 기존의 ARToolkit에서 태그의 일부분이 사용자 또는 다른 물체에 의해 가려지게 될 경우 증강되었던 객체가 순간 사라져 버리는 불안정성 (Instability) 문제를 해결하기 위한 방법에 초점을 맞춘다. 불안정성의 문제는 이미지 안에 태그가 존재하지만 해당하는 객체를 증강시키지 못하는 False Negative 에러와 태그가 존재하지 않는 곳에 잘못된 객체를 증강시키는 False Positive 에러로 분류 될 수 있다. 제안된 탐지 알고리즘으로 특정 컬러 영역을 분리하여 모서리 여부를 판별하고 모서리인 경우 가려진 꼭지점의 위치를 추출하여 태그가 차단에 의하여 가려졌을 때에도 객체를 안정적으로 증강시킬 수 있다. 기존 AR 시스템들의 태그를 가지고 Daylight 65, Illuminant A. CWF, TL84의 4가지의 표준 조명하에 컬러코드 4종류, ARToolkit 태그 4개, ARTag 4개를 이용하여 실험을 진행하여 차단 현상이 발생하면 전혀 객체를 증강시킬 수 없었던 ARToolkit에서도 DayLight65의 경우 50%의 False Negative. False Positive rate을 보여 기존 증강현실 시스템에서 보였던 불안정성 문제를 개선하였다.

In a rolling wire probe, a key component of an inspection apparatus for PDP electrode patterns, the electric performance of it is known to be strongly dependent on the surface condition of a collet pin, a needle pin, and a wire. However, the collet and needle pins rotate very rapidly in contact with each other, which results in the degradation of the surface by the heat and friction and finally the formation of black wear marks on the surface after a several hundred hours test. Once the black wear marks appear on the surface, the electric resistance of the probe increases sharply and so the integrity of the probe is severely damaged. In this experiment, TiN coating, which has excellent electric conductances and good wear-resistance, has been applied on the surface of collect and needle pins for preventing the surface damages. In order to achieve the homogeneous coating with a good adhesion property, special coating substrate stages and jigs were designed and applied during coating. TiN has been deposited using 99.999% Titanium target by a DC reactive sputtering method. According to the components and jigs, processing parameters, such as DC power, RF bias and the flow rate ratio of Ar and N$_2$ used as reactive gases, has been controlled to obtain good TiN films. Detailed problems and solutions for applying the new substrate stages and jigs will be discussed.

The $(Sr_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})TiO_3$(SCT) thin films were deposited on Pt-coated electrode (Pt/TiN/$SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method according to the deposition condition. The optimum conditions of RF power and Ar/$O_2$ ratio were 140[W] and 80/20, respectively. Deposition rate of SCT thin films was about 18.75[${\AA}/min$] at the optimum condition. The capacitance characteristics had a stable value within ${\pm}4[%]$. The drastic decrease of dielectric constant and increase of dielectric loss in SCT thin films were observed above 200[kHz].
