We present 12CO (2-1) data for four spiral galaxies (NGC 4330, NGC 4402, NGC 4522, NGC 4569) in the Virgo cluster that are undergoing different ram pressure stages. The goal is to probe the detailed molecular gas properties under strong intra-cluster medium (ICM) pressure using high-resolution millimeter data taken with the Submillimeter Array (SMA). Combining this with Institut de RadioAstronomie $Millim{\acute{e}}trique$ (IRAM) data, we also study spatially resolved temperature and density distributions of the molecular gas. Comparing with multi-wavelength data (optical, $H\small{I}$, UV, $H{\alpha}$), we discuss how molecular gas properties and star formation activity change when a galaxy experiences $H\small{I}$ stripping. This study suggests that ICM pressure can modify the physical and chemical properties of the molecular gas significantly even if stripping does not take place. We discuss how this affects the star formation rate and galaxy evolution in the cluster environment.

We investigate $H\small{I}$ data for a pair of blue compact dwarf galaxies (BCDs), ESO 435-IG20 and ESO 435-IG16, obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array. The outer $H\small{I}$ disk is highly disturbed and asymmetric in both galaxies showing a gas tail and/or a broad/extended gas disk on only one side. Based on their low-density surroundings and small projected distance (<80 kpc) at a similar redshift, we conclude that tidal interaction between these two BCDs is responsible for the morphological and kinematical peculiarities in $H\small{I}$. We also investigate their star formation rates using $H{\alpha}$ and UV imaging data to probe their interaction history.

As biosensors are widely used in the medical field, flexible devices compatible with live animals have aroused great interest. Especially, significant research has been carried out to develop implantable or skin-attachable devices for real-time bio-signal sensing. From the device point of view, various biosensor types such as field-effect transistors (FETs) and multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) have been reported as diverse sensing strategies. In particular, the flexible FETs and MEAs allow semiconductor engineering to expand its application, which had been impossible with stiff devices and materials. This review summarizes the state-of-the-art research on flexible FET and MEA biosensors focusing on their materials, structures, sensing targets, and methods.

In this paper, for both transmission and reception with single antenna system of satellite communication, dual-frequency antennas which operate simultaneously at 12.5 GHz and at 14.25 GHz are designed, constructed and measured. Also by using dual feeding structure, the problems of single-fed dual-frequency antenna such as the separation of transmitting and receiving signals and single polarization, are solved. Microstrip patch as a radiation element of dual-fed dual-frequency antenna has width and length which are the resonance lengths of the corresponding frequencies for transmission and reception, respectively. The effects of the feed line on the other frequency feeding are minimized with the optimal matching scheme for the feed lines. For solving the space problems of dual-fed two-dimensional array antennas, microstrip-line and coaxial probe feedings are used for each frequency and a two-dimensional $2\times2$ array antenna was designed and measured their characteristics. The experimental results show that errors of resonance frequencies are less than 1.44%, the return losses are less than -21 dB and the isolations between two feeding ports are less than -21 dB. The characteristics of radiation patterns of dual frequency microstrip antenna are measured and evaluated. The directivities, sidelobe levels and cross polarizations are also measured and compared with the simulations. The results show some errors due to the misalignment of coaxial probe feeding.

Failure of small bore piping welds is a recurring problem at nuclear power plants. And the socket weld cracking in small bore piping has caused unplanned plant shutdowns for repair and high economic impact on the plants. Consequently, early crack detection, including the detection of manufacturing defects, is of the utmost importance. Until now, the surface inspection methods has been applied according to ASME Section XI requirements. But the ultrasonic inspection as a volumetric method is also applying to enforce the inspection requirement. However, the conventional manual ultrasonic inspection techniques are used to detect service induced fatigue cracks. And there was uncertainty on manual ultrasonic inspection because of limited access to the welds and difficulties with contact between the ultrasonic probe and the OD(outer diameter) surface of small bore piping. In this study, phased array ultrasonic inspection technique is applied to increase inspection speed and reliability. To achieve this object, the 3.5 MHz phased array ultrasonic transducer are designed and fabricated. The manually encoded scanner was also developed to enhance contact conditions and maintain constant signal quality. Additionally inspection system is configured and inspection procedure is developed.

최근 반도체 소자의 집적회로는 점점 복잡해지고 있는 반면, 소자의 크기는 작아지고 있으며 그로 인해 패드의 크기가 작아지고 패드사이의 간격 또한 협소해지고 있다. 따라서 웨이퍼 단계에서 제조된 집적회로의 불량여부를 판단하기위한 검사 장비인 프로브카드(Probe Card)의 높은 집적도가 요구되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 MEMS 공법으로 제작되는 프로브 빔은 복잡한 제조 공정과 높은 생산비용, 낮은 집적도의 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 간단한 제조 공정과 낮은 생산비용, 높은 집적도를 가지는 프로브 빔을 개발하기 위하여 절연절단 방식으로 BeCu (Beryllium-Copper) 프로브 빔을 제작하였다. 낮은 소비 전력으로 우수한 프로브 빔 어레이를 제작하기 위해서 가장 고려해야할 대상은 프로브 빔의 재료와 구조(형상)이다. 절연전단 방식으로 프로브 빔을 형성할 때 요구되는 Fusing current는 프로브 빔의 구조(형상)에 크게 영향을 받는다. 낮은 Fusing current는 소비 전력을 줄여주고, 절연절단으로 형성되는 프로브 빔의 단면(끝)을 날카롭게 하여 프로브 빔과 집적회로의 패드 간의 접촉 저항을 감소시킨다. 프로브 빔의 제작은 BeCu 박판을 빔 형태로 식각하여 제작하였으며, 실리콘 비아 홀(Via hole) 구조의 기판위에 정렬하여 soldering 공정을 통해 실리콘 기판과 BeCu 박판을 접합시켰다. 접합된 프로브 빔의 끝부분을 들어 올린 상태로 전류를 인가하여 stress free 상태로 만들어 내부 응력을 제거하였으며, BeCu 박판에 fusing current를 인가하여 BeCu 박판 프레임으로부터 제거를 하였다. 제작된 프로브 빔의 길이는 1.7 mm, 폭은 $50{\mu}m$, 두께는 $15{\mu}m$, 절단부의 단면적은 1$50{\mu}m^2$로 제작되었다. 그리고 프로브 빔의 절단부의 길이는 $50{\mu}m$ 부터 $90{\mu}m$까지 $10{\mu}m$ 증가시켜 제작되었다. 이후에 절연절단 공정에 요구되는 Fusing current를 측정하였고, 절연절단 후의 절단면의 형상을 SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope)장비를 통하여 확인하였다. 절단부의 길이가 $50{\mu}m$일 때 5.98A의 fusing current를 얻었으며, 절연절단 후 절단부 상태 또한 가장 우수했다. 본 연구에서 제안된 프로브 빔 제작 방법은 프로브카드 및 테스트 소켓(Test socket) 생산에 응용이 가능하리라 기대한다.

Interactions between the galactic interstellar medium (ISM) and the intra cluster medium (ICM) are believed to be one of the main processes affecting galaxy evolution in cluster environments. The aim of our research is to study the molecular gas properties of a galaxy under the ICM pressure in the cluster environment. It has been well known that cluster galaxies are deficient in atomic hydrogen gas (HI gas) compared to their field counterparts and now there is much evidence that low density ISM is being removed by ram pressure due to ICM wind. Meanwhile, no significant molecular gas deficiency of the cluster galaxy population has been found yet they show overall lower star formation rate than galaxies in the field, and it is still puzzling how the star formation could decrease without stripping of dense molecular gas. To address this issue, we probe the detailed molecular gas properties of NGC 4402, located near the cluster center, as part of a study of four spiral galaxies in the Virgo Cluster. NGC 4402 is well known undergoing ram pressure stripping with a truncated HI disk($D_{HI}/D_{opt}$ - 0.75 and only 36% of HI gas compare to field galaxies of a similar size) and a disturbed gas morphology. Comparing the high resolution 12CO and 13CO data of NGC 4402 from the Sub Millimeter Array (SMA) with existing other wavelength data, we probe the spatial distribution and a physical condition of molecular gas under strong ICM pressure. We discuss the star formation activity might have been altered and hence how the global color of NGC4402 would change in the future.
