본 논문에서는 마하-젠더 광 변조기와 EDFA(Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier)로 구성된 아날로그 광통신 링크에서 광 변조기에 인가되는 바이어스 전압의 조정을 통해 광통신 링크 출력의 랜덤 지터를 효과적으로 감소시키는 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 광 변조기의 바이어스를 $0.5\;V_{\pi}$로부터 약 $0.089\;V_{\pi}$로 이동시켰을 때, 10 GHz RF 신호의 이득은 최대 10.65 dB가 증가하였고, 랜덤 지터는 EDFA의 입력 광 파워가 -0.11 dBm일 때 최대 46.5% 감소하였다.

The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of oral splints in reducing the intensity of pain in patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction in both short and long-term treatment durations. Electronic databases, Cochrane Library, MEDLINE via PubMed, Web of Science, Egyptian Knowledge Bank, and EMBASE were searched for randomized controlled trials comparing different types of splints to non-occluding splints, behavioral therapy, pharmacotherapy, counseling, and no treatment. The risk of bias was assessed by using Cochrane risk of bias recommendations. Fixed and random effects were used to summarize the outcomes. The effect estimates were expressed as standardized mean differences (SMD) or risk ratios with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Subgroup analyses were carried out according to the treatment duration. Twenty-two studies met the inclusion criteria. A meta-analysis of short-term studies up to three months revealed no significant difference between the study groups. However, long-term studies exhibited a significant difference in pain reduction in favor of the control group. Total analysis revealed that the control group resulted in significant pain reduction (SMD 0.14, 95% CI 0.05-0.23, P=0.002, I²=0%). Oral splints are not effective in reducing pain intensity or improving function in patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction.

Sound event detection in real-world environments suffers from the interference of non-stationary and time-varying noise. This paper presents an adaptive noise reduction method for sound event detection based on non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). In this paper, we proposed a deep learning model that integrates Convolution Neural Network (CNN) with Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF). To improve the separation quality of the NMF, it includes noise update technique that learns and adapts the characteristics of the current noise in real time. The noise update technique analyzes the sparsity and activity of the noise bias at the present time and decides the update training based on the noise candidate group obtained every frame in the previous noise reduction stage. Noise bias ranks selected as candidates for update training are updated in real time with discrimination NMF training. This NMF was applied to CNN and Hidden Markov Model(HMM) to achieve improvement for performance of sound event detection. Since CNN has a more obvious performance improvement effect, it can be widely used in sound source based CNN algorithm.

발진기의 위상잡음에 영향윤 주는 요인은 여러 가지가 있다. 그러나 발진기의 위상잡음은 주로 캐리어(carrier)와 l/f의 특성을 잦는 DC 근처 저주파 잡음과의 혼합으로 발생되므로, 저주파 플리커 잡음에 의해 지배된다. 본 논문에서는 능동 바이어스 회로로 구현된 저주파 궤환회로를 이용하여 플리커 잡음의 영향을 최소화함으로써 발진기의 위상잡음을 줄이는 기법을 제안하고, DBS 수신기에 사용 가능한 DRO를 제작하였다. 제작된 DRO의 위상잡음을 측정한 갤과 10 kHz 옵셋 주파수에서 약 -92 dBc/Hz로 제안된 방볍이 상당히 효과적임을 확인 하였다

Photoluminescence (PL) properties of GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were analyzed to study the effects of carrier leakage on the luminescence properties at room temperature. The electrical leakage and PL properties were compared for LEDs showing leakages at forward bias and an LED with an intentional leakage path formed by connecting a parallel resistance of various values. The leakages at the forward bias, which could be observed from the current-voltage characteristics, resulted in an increase in the excitation laser power density for the maximum PL efficiency (ratio of PL intensity to excitation power) as well as a reduction in the PL intensity. The effect of carrier leakages on PL properties was similar to the change in PL properties owing to a reduction of the photovoltage by a reverse current since the direction of the carrier movement under photoexcitation is identical to that of the reverse current. Valid relations between PL properties and electrical properties were observed as the PL properties deteriorated with an increase in the carrier leakage. The results imply that the PL properties of LED chips can be an indicator of the electrical properties of LEDs.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of in vitro studies regarding the effectiveness of reciprocating and rotary instrumentation on microbial reduction in root canals. Materials and Methods: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and the gray literature were searched through December 2019. Studies comparing the influence of reciprocating and rotary instrumentation on the removal of microorganisms from root canals that quantified the antimicrobial effect were included. Data extraction was completed using a systematic form for data collection. The risk of bias of the studies was evaluated. Standardized mean differences (SMDs) and confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random effects meta-analysis. Results: Seventeen in vitro studies were included in this systematic review, of which 7 provided adequate data for inclusion in the meta-analysis. Both reciprocating and rotary systems were similarly effective in reducing the microbial load in infected root canals (SMD [95% CI], 0.0481 [-0.271, 0.367]). Three studies showed a low risk of bias, whereas most of the studies (82%) presented a medium risk. Conclusions: Although both techniques decrease the microbial content (with reductions of 23.32%-88.47% and 23.33%-89.86% for reciprocating and rotary instrumentation, respectively), they are not able to provide complete disinfection of root canals.

본 연구에서 고밀도 플라즈마 식각 장치를 사용한 비정질 실리콘 막의 게이트 전극선 형성공정에서 여러 가지 식각 변수가 치수 제어와 식각 속도 및 식각 선택비 등 식각 특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. $Cl_2/HBr/O_2$로 구성된 식각 기체의 전체 유량을 증가시키면 비정질 실리콘의 식각 속도가 증가하나 식각 전후의 형상치수는 변화없이 거의 일정하였다. 전체 유량을 고정시키고 $Cl_2$와 HBr 간의 유량비를 변화시키면 HBr의 유량이 커질수록 비정질 실리콘의 식각 속도가 감소하였다. $O_2$의 유량을 증가시키면 산화막의 식각 속도가 상대적으로 낮아져 식각 선택비를 증가시켜 식각 공정의 안정성을 높이나 게이트 전극선을 경사지게 하는 특성을 보인다. Source power의 증가는 비정질 실리콘 식각 속도의 증가와 더불어 형상치수의 증가를 가져오며, bias power의 증가는 비정질 실리콘과 산화막의 식각 속도를 증가시키나 식각 선택비를 크게 감소시키는 경향을 보였다.

This paper presents the design of a down-conversion mixer with built-in active balun integrated in a $0.25\;{\mu}m$ pHEMT process. The active balun consists of series-connected common-gate FET and common-source FET. The designed balun achieved broadband characteristics by optimizing gate-width and bias condition for the reduction in parasitic effect. From DC to more than 6GHz, the active balun shows the phase error of less than 3 degree and the gain error of less than 0.4 dB. A single-balanced down-conversion mixer with built-in broadband active balun has been designed with optimum width, load resistor and bias for conversion gain and without any matching component for broadband operating. The designed mixer whose size of including on-chip bias circuit is $1\;mm{\times}1\;mm$ shows the conversion gain of better than 7 dB from 2 GHz to 6 GHz and $P_{1dB}$ of -10 dBm at 5.8 GHz

Moore's law has driven silicon technology scale down aggressively, and it results in significant increase of leakage current on nano-meter scale CMOS. Especially, in mobile devices, leakage current has been one of designers' main concerns, and thus many studies have introduced low power methodologies. However, there are few studies to minimize implementation cost in the mixed use of the methodologies to the best of our knowledge. In this paper, we introduce industrial applications of low power design methodologies for the decrease of leakage current. We focus on the design cost reduction of power gating and reverse body bias when used together. Also, we present voltage scale as an alternative to reverse body bias. To sustain gate leakage current, we discuss the adoption of high-$\kappa$ metal gate, which cuts gate leakage current by a factor of 10 in 32 nm CMOS technology. A 45 nm mobile SoC is shown as the case study of the mixed use of low power methodologies.

B-dot 로직은 일반적으로 위성의 초기각속도 제어에 사용되나, 상대적으로 제어시간이 많이 소요된다는 단점이 있다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 피치 바이어스 모맨텀 방식을 사용하는 초소형 위성에 적용 가능한 디텀블링(detumbling) 방식을 새롭게 제안하였다. 제안된 디텀블링 방식은 제어시간이 약 20분 이내로 기존의 방식에 비해 상당한 시간을 줄일 수 있다.
