A novel class AB current subtracter(CS) and its application to Norton amplifier(NA) for low-power current-mode signal processing are designed. The CS is composed of a translinear cell, two current mirrors, and two common-emitter(CB) amplifiers. The principle of the current subtraction is that the difference of two input current applied translinear cell get from the current mirror, and then the current amplify through CB amplifier with ${\beta}$ times. The NA is consisted of the CS and wideband voltage buffer. The simulation results show that the CS has current input impedance of $20{\Omega}$, current gain of 50, and current input range of $i_{IN1}$ > $i_{IN2}{\geq}4I_B$. The NA has unit gain frequency of 312 MHz, transresistance of 130 dB, and power dissipation of 4mW at ${\pm}2.5V$ supply voltage.

Cholesteryl pentyl carbonate $(C_{33}H_{56}O_3)$ is monoclinic, space group P21, with a = 12.484(3), b = 9.043(3), c = 14.053(3)$\AA$, ${\beta} = 94.12(2)^{\circ}$ and z = 2. The intensity data were measured for the 2969 reflections within sin $\theta/\lambda = 0.52 {\AA}^{-1}$, using an automatic four--circle diffractometer and graphite monochromated Mo-K$\alpha$ radiation. The atomic coordinates from cholesteryl octanoate were used in an initial trial structure and the structure was refined by full-matrix least squares methods. The final R-factor was 0.12 for 1164 observed reflections. The pentyl group has shortened bond lengths due to the high thermal vibrations in this region. Adjacent molecules are related by $2_1$ screw axis so that they are arranged in an antiparallel array, corresponding to the Monolayer Type II packing mode. There are close packings of cholesteryl groups within the monolayers. This packing type is similar to those of cholesteryl hexanoate, octanoate, hexyl carbonate and oleate.

This paper presents a 868/915 MHz CMOS RF transceiver for the ZigBee application. Using a switchless matching network, the off chip switch is removed to achieve the low cost RF transceiver, and by the elimination of the switch's insertion loss we can achieve the benefits for the RF receiver's noise figure and transmitter's power efficiency at the given output power. The receiver is composed of low-noise amplifier, mixer, and baseband analog(BBA) circuit. The transmitter is composed of BBA, mixer, and driver amplifier. And, the integer N type frequency synthesizer is designed. The proposed ZigBee RF full transceiver is implemented on the $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. Measurement results show that the maximum gain and the noise figure of the receiver are 97.6 dB and 6.8 dB, respectively. The receiver consumes 32 mA in the receiver mode and the transmitter 33 mA in the transmission mode.

Fluid-elastic instability and turbulence-induced vibration of steam generator U-tubes of a nuclear power plant are studied numerically to investigate the effect of design changes of support structures in the upper region of the tubes. Two steam generator models, Model A and Model B, are considered in this study. The main design features of both models are identical except for the conditions of vertical and horizontal support bars. The location and number of vertical and horizontal support bars at the middle of the U-bend region in Model A differs from that of Model B. The stability ratio and the amplitude of turbulence-induced vibration are calculated by a computer program based on the ASME code. The mode shape with a large modal displacement at the upper region of the U-tube is the key parameter related to the fretting wear between the tube and its support structures, such as vertical, horizontal, and diagonal support bars. Therefore, the location and the number of vertical and horizontal support bars have a great influence on the fretting wear mechanism. The variation in the stability ratios for each vibrational mode is compared with respect to Model A and Model B. Even though both models satisfy the design criteria, Model A shows substantial improvements over Model B, particularly in terms of having greater amplitude margins in the turbulence-excited vibration (especially at the inner region of the tube bundle) and better stability ratios for the fluid-elastic instability.

Recently, U.S. and Europe, which are advanced to Air Traffic Control Management, are interest in replacing Radar System with Communications, Navigation and Surveillance(CNS) and Air Traffic Management(ATM). They pursue to research the efficient Air Traffic Control Management. This paper covers ADS-B 1090ES system which is one of CNS/ATM surveillance systems. This research satisfied all performance required by RTCA DO-268B and EUROCAE ED-129. It optimized algorism to mainly enhance performance such as quality of receiver signal, dynamic range, and so on. The optimized mechanism provided stable performance of demodulation, tuned the level of signal, and had reduced the false reception ratio by the signal level difference. The analyzed algorism helped great performance and will be considered to apply broad system applications.

The effects of $AI_{2}$$O_{3}$ and the ratio of $Na_2O/B_2O_3$ on the phase separation and optical properties of sodium borosilicate glass film fabricated by AFD(Aerosol Flame Deposition) were investigated. When AI,O, of 6wt% was added to $66SiO_2-27B_2O_3-7Na_2O$ the clear glass film without any crystallization was produced under air-quenching condition after consolidation. As the amount of $AI_{2}$$O_{3}$ increased from 1.5 to 6.0 wt% the refractive index linearly increased from 1.4610 to 1.4701, and the difference of TE and TM mode causing by residual stress in film increased gradually. However, the difference of TE and TM mode to reveal birefringence could be minimized by annealing below the glass transition temperature after consolidation and air quenching. On the other hand. as the ratio of $Na_2O/B_2O_3$ increased the refractive index and birefringence of glass film tended to increase, but the measurement of their values were not available at over the critical ratio of $Na_2O/B_2O_3$, because of the cloudiness due to crystallization. The phase separation was greatly accelerated with increasing the ratio of $Na_2O/B_2O_3$.

Outdoor exposure tests using of 7B04 aluminium alloy samples including plate, tensile and various SCC samples were carried out in Tuandao station, Shandong province (East of China) and Wanning station, Hainan province (South of China). Corrosion characteristics including weight loss, microstructure, tensile strength and SCC susceptibility were investigated. The corrosion rates in Tuandao and Wanning showed high to low and the corrosion rates changed to the following equation of $w=at^b$ (b<1). The corrosion of 7B04 aluminium alloy in Wanning was more serious than that in Tuandao. Pitting appeared at early stage of expose test, and it can be changed to general corrosion with test time extension. The 7B04 aluminium alloy of which specimen shapes are forging and thick plate also showed SCC (Stress corrosion cracking) in the marine atmosphere. The higher SCC sensitivity was observed in Wanning station than in Tuandao station. The 7B04 aluminium alloy with a high stress level was more sensitive to SCC. Intergranular and transgranular or a mixed mode of cracking can be observed in different marine exposure.

Bacillus subtilis 168 secreted antimicrobial substance(s) into culture medium and culture supernatant inhibited growth of some Gram positive bacteria. B. cereus and Listeria monocytogenes were the most sensitive organisms. The antimicrobial activity was destroyed when culture supernatant was treated by protease and proteinase K, indicating the proteinous nature of the substance (bacteriocin). The molecular weight of the bacteriocin was estimated to be 5 kDa by Tricine SDS-PAGE. B. cereus ATCC 14579 cells were killed when exposed to the bacteriocin, indicating that the mode of inhibition was bacteriocidal. These results show that B. subtilis 168 could be useful as a starter for fermented foods such as cheonggukjang where B. cereus contamination is a major concern.
