In this study, a piezoelectric inkjet nozzle with a rectangular shaped channel has been developed, and the characteristics of droplet formation have been investigated according to the variation of pulse widths in bipolar waveform. The channel of the nozzle was fabricated transparently by a precision machining technique. A tantalum membrane which was attached to a piezoelectric material covers the channel. By applying two types of bipolar waveforms to the piezoelectric actuators, droplet formation through the nozzle was monitored by a CCD camera. For the variety of the first and second pulse widths in the bipolar waveforms, the regimes of single and double droplet formations are presented. The change of droplet velocity which depends on the pulse width and the type of waveform is also discussed.

Using an inkjet printing process, we have investigated a droplet formation of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) near the orifice of a piezoelectric inkjet head. With an attempt to form the smallest droplet without any satellites, we have applied various waveforms such as the unipolar, bipolar, and M-shaped waveforms. It is found that the droplet velocity and volume vary depending sensitively on the waveform width and voltage. Of those, the M-shaped waveform is shown to provide the smallest droplet volume, followed by the bipolar and then unipolar waveforms. The droplet printed on a PET film roll by the M-shaped waveform has the diameter as small as 46.1 ㎛. It is likely that the second short unipolar in the M-shape waveform increases the droplet velocity gradient, rendering the droplet smaller.

An micro model for the power insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor(IGBT) is developed. The model consistently described the IGBT steady-state current-voltage characteristics and switching transient current and voltage waveform for all loading conditions. The model is based on the equivalent circuit of a MOSFET with supplies the base current to a low-gain, high-level injection, bipolar transistor with its base virtual contact at the collector and of the base. Model results are compared with measured turn-on and turn-off waveform for different drive, load, and feedback circuits.

In the fields of electronics and displays where inkjet printing has demonstrated its capability to fabricate colorant subpixels of thin film transistor liquid crystal(TFT LCD) color filters and organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays, conducting tracks and TFTs, the production of satellite droplets is one of primary things to eliminate because they generally deteriorate the pattern quality. To understand the production mechanism of satellite droplets in this paper, driving waveforms such as monopolar and bipolar were employed and the influence of the pulse duration time were investigated in both experimental and numerical aspects.

The characteristics of write discharge were investigated when the conventional driving method with the unipolar sustain voltages, and the single sustain driving method applying the bipolar sustain voltage were applied in an AC plasma display. In the case of having a single sustain waveform, the strength of the write discharge is weakened compared to the conventional driving method during the address period, because the wall charge inside the panel is more dissipated by the lower scanning voltage. In the driving method with a single sustain waveform, the bias voltage of the other electrodes was changed to improve the write discharge characteristics. As a result, the intensity of the discharge was enhanced by 32% and the delay time was shortened by 60 ㎲.

본 연구에서는 뇌전자장 펄스에 관한 상세한 정보를 얻기 위한 목적으로 운방전에 의해서 방사되는 전자파 펄스를 측정하고, 이의 특성과 파라미터를 통계적으로 분석하였다. 운방전에 의해서 방사된 전자파 펄스는 낙뢰에 의한 것과는 확연하게 달랐으며, 후속 스토로크로 갈수록 주 방전에 의한 양방성 전자파 펄스의 영점교차시간과 펄스폭은 짧게 나타났다. 또한 주 방전에 의한 양방성 전자파 펄스의 파두부분에는 좁고 빠른 리더펄스가 중첩되어 나타났으며, 이 중첩된 리더펄스의 평균 개수는 정극성에서 61$\pm$0.74, 부극성에서 1.75$\pm$0.73이었다.

In this paper, the waveform parameters of electromagnetic pulses radiated from intracloud discharges were presented. The zero-crossing times and the full pulse widths of the large bipolar electromagnetic pulses due to intracloud discharges are gradually decreased as the stroke proceeds. Also, the electromagnetic pulses tend to be bipolar, with narrow and fast leader pulses superimposed on the initial half cycle. The mean numbers of leader pulses superimposed on the initial half cycle were 1.61${\pm}$0.74 and 1.75${\pm}$0.73 for the positive and negative polarities, respectively.

The static and dynamic model of IGBT for the SPICE simulation has been successfully developed. The various circuit model parameters are extracted from the I-V and C-V characteristics of IGBT and implemented into our model. The static model of IGBT consists of the MOSFET, bipolar transistor and series resistance. The parameters to be extracted are the threshold voltage of MOSFET, current gain $\beta$ of bipolar transistor, and the series resistance. They can be extracted from the measured I-V characteristics curve. The C-V characteristics between the terminals are very important parameters to determine the turn-on and turn-off waveform. Especially, voltage dependent capacitance are polynomially approximated to obtain the exact turn-on and turn-off waveforms. The SPICE simulation results employing new model agree well with the experimental values.

Background: In belly-tendon (bipolar) montage, reference (R2) electrode placed on muscle's tendon has traditionally been considered to be electrically inactive. However, recent studies have revealed that R2 electrode is not simply referential, but actively contributes to compound muscle action potential (CMAP) waveform morphology. These findings suggest that CMAP onset latency and amplitude may also be influenced by the position of R2 electrode. This study was performed in order to evaluate the effect of R2 electrode position on CMAP onset latency and amplitude. Methods: We performed motor nerve conduction studies of median, ulnar, tibial and peroneal nerves on bilateral limbs of 20 normal subjects. We used traditional bipolar and monopolar montage and compared their CMAP onset latencies and amplitudes. In bipolar montage, recording (R1) electrode was placed on mid-belly of muscle with R2 electrode on the tendon of the muscle. In monopolar montage, R1 electrode was placed on the same site of bipolar montage, while R2 electrode was placed on the contralateral limb. Results: The mean CMAP onset latencies of median and peroneal nerves in bipolar montage were significantly different (p<0.05) with those in monopolar montage. And those of ulnar and tibial nerves were not significantly different (p>0.05). The mean CMAP amplitudes of all the tested nerves except ulnar nerve were significantly different (p<0.05). Conclusions: This study shows that change in R2 electrode position can affect the CMAP onset latency and amplitude, and these differences seem to be related to the generation of far field potential by CMAP.

Power factor improved for single-phase buck-converter is studied in the paper. To sinusoidal waveform the input current with a near-unity power factor over a wide variety of operating conditions, the output capacitor is operated with voltage reversibility for the supply by arranging the auxiliary diode and power switching device. Then the output voltage is superposed on the input voltage during on time duration of power switching devices in order to minimize the input current distortion caused by the small input voltage when changing the polarity. The tested setup, using two insulated gate bipolar transistors(IGBT) and a microcomputer, is implemented and IGBT are switched with 20[kHz], which is out of the audible band. Moreover, a rigorous state-space analysis is introduced to predict the operation of the rectifier. The simulated results confirm that the input current can be sinusoidal waveform with a near-unity power factor and a satisfactory output voltage regulation can be achieved.
