본 논문은 고전압 DC 파워 서플라이 적용을 위한 높은 전환 비의 자려발진 DC/DC 전력 변환 회로에 관한 것으로써, 하나의 스위치, 하나의 인덕터, 그리고 다수개의 캐패시터와 다이오드로 구성된다. 기존의 극성 반전 형DC/DC 컨버터 회로와 비교하여, 고압 변환 트랜스포머 대신에 인덕터를 사용할 수 있어, 자기 소자의 부피 및 크기는 물론 원가저감이 가능하다. 또한 자려 발진(Self Oscillation) 방식을 사용하여 별도의 제어 IC가 필요 없으므로, 회로구성이 대단히 간단하고, 저가격의 전원 회로를 만들 수 있다. 또한 다이오드들의 전압 스트레스가 감소하여 저가격 고성능의 고압 변환장치 구현이 가능하다. 제안된 회로의 동작원리를 설명하고, 타당성을 Simulation 및 실험을 통하여 검증한다.

본 논문은 게이트 채널 길이 0.13 [${\mu}m$]의 p-MOS 트랜지스터에서 음 바이어스 온도 불안정(NBTI) 전류 스트레스 인가에 의한 게이트유기 드레인 누설(GIDL) 전류를 측정 분석하였다. NBTI 스트레스에 의한 문턱전압의 변화와 문턱전압아래 기울기와 드레인 전류 사이에 상관관계로부터, 소자의 특성 변화의 결과로 열화에 대한 중요한 메카니즘이 계면 상태의 생성과 관련이 있다는 것을 분석하였다. GIDL 전류의 측정 결과로부터, NBTI 스트레스에 기인한 계면상태에서 전자-정공 쌍의 생성이 GIDL 전류의 증가의 결과를 도출하였다. 이런 결과로 부터, 초박막 게이트 산화막 소자에서 NBTI 스트레스 후에 증가된 GIDL 전류를 고려해야만 한다. 또한, 동시에 신뢰성 특성과 직류 소자 성능의 고려가 나노 크기의 CMOS 통신회로 설계의 스트레스 파라미터들에서 반드시 있어야 한다.

Purpose: This study aims to describe the characteristics of safety incidents and factors associated with injury for patients with Home Mechanical Ventilation (HMV) at the hospital. Methods: This is a retrospective study. Data were collected from the work log of respiratory home care nurses and the patients' electronic medical records were investigated. In order to compare group differences, independent t-test and χ² test were used. Associated factors with injury development were identified by generalized mixed modeling analysis controlling for age and gender. Results: A total of 304 patients on HMV were included in this study, among which 129 (42.4%) experienced 352 HMV-related incidents. Mean frequency of incidents for each patient was 5.11±3.98, ranged from 1 to 15 times. In 19.0% of the incidents, injury was developed. Types of incident and persons involved in the incidents were significantly associated with the patient's injury. In the case of the safety incidents, patient's injury was significantly higher in accidents caused by respiratory circuit problems compared to those caused by problems with the ventilator operation by the medical staff (coefficient=1.25, p=.020). In addition, in the case of those involved in the safety incidents, patient's injury was significantly higher in the accident caused by the patient family members or caregivers than that caused by the medical personnel (coefficient=1.25, p=.019). Conclusion: In order to minimize injury caused by incidents in patients with HMV, hospitals need to provide systemic education to their medical staff and caregivers to enhance awareness of the importance of reporting and safety management.

Low noise amplifier (LNA) is an integral component of RF receiver and frequently required to operate at wide frequency bands for various wireless system applications. For wideband operation, important performance metrics such as voltage gain, return loss, noise figure and linearity have been carefully investigated and characterized for the proposed LNA. An inductive shunt feedback configuration is successfully employed in the input stage of the proposed LNA which incorporates cascaded networks with a peaking inductor in the buffer stage. Design equations for obtaining low and high impedance-matching frequencies are easily derived, leading to a relatively simple method for circuit implementation. Careful theoretical analysis explains that input impedance can be described in the form of second-order frequency response, where poles and zeros are characterized and utilized for realizing the wideband response. Linearity is significantly improved because the inductor located between the gate and the drain decreases the third-order harmonics at the output. Fabricated in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process, the chip area of this wideband LNA is $0.202mm^2$, including pads. Measurement results illustrate that the input return loss shows less than -7 dB, voltage gain greater than 8 dB, and a little high noise figure around 6-8 dB over 1.5 - 13 GHz. In addition, good linearity (IIP3) of 2.5 dBm is achieved at 8 GHz and 14 mA of current is consumed from a 1.8 V supply.

현재 반도체 제조 공정에서 집적회로의 소자 크기가 점점 작아짐에 따라 플라즈마 식각 공정에서의 식각 종료점 검출이 더 어려워지고 있다. 식각 종료점 검출은 위해서는 반도체 장비에 다양한 종류의 센서를 설치하고 이 센서를 통해 데이터를 얻고 분석해야 한다. 기존의 식각 종료점 검출 방식은 주로 By-product의 OES 데이터를 분석하여 진행되었는데 본 연구에서는 By-product 와 Etchant gas 의 OES 데이터를 함께 분석하여 식각 종료점 검출 결과에 신뢰성을 더 높이고자 하였다. 또한, 데이터 분석을 위해 OES-SNR, PCA, Polynomial Regression, eHMM 등의 기법들을 사용하여 진행하였다.

Control valves are widely used to regulate fluid flux in nuclear power plants, and there are more than 1500 control valves in the primary circuit of one nuclear power plant. With their help, the flux can be regulated to a specific level of water or steam to guarantee the energy efficiency and safety of the nuclear power plant. The flux characteristics of the control valve mainly depend on the valve core shape. In order to analyze the effects of valve core shapes on flux characteristics of control valves, this paper focuses on the valve core shapes. To begin with, numerical models of different valve core shapes are established, and results are compared with the ideal flux characteristics curve for the purpose of validation. Meanwhile, the flow fields corresponding to different valve core shapes are investigated. Moreover, relationships between the valve core opening and the outlet flux under different valve core shapes are carried out. The flux characteristics curve and equation are proposed to predict the outlet flux under different valve core openings. This work can benefit the further research of the flux control and the optimization of the valve core for control valves in nuclear power plants.

The electrochemical reaction of refuse derived fuel (RDF) and refuse plastic/paper fuel (RPF) was investigated in the direct carbon fuel cell (DCFC) system. The open circuit voltage (OCV) of RPF was higher than RDF and other coals because of its thermal reactive characteristic under carbon dioxide. The thermal reactivity of fuels was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis method. and the reaction rate of RPF was higher than other fuels. The behavior of all sample's potential was analogous in the beginning region of electrochemical reactions due to similar functional groups on the surface of fuels analyzed by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy experiments. The potential level of RDF and RPF decreased rapidly comparing to coals in the next of the electrochemical reaction because the surface area and pore volume investigated by nitrogen gas adsorption tests were smaller than coals. This characteristic signifies the contact surface between electrolyte and fuel is restricted. The potential of fuels was maintained to the high current density region over 40 $mA/cm^2$ by total carbon component. The maximum power density of RDF and RPF reached up to 45~70% comparing to coal. The obvious improvement of maximum power density by increasing operating temperature was observed in both refuse fuels.

The traction power demand highly varies with time and train positions and the traction load is a large-capacity current at single phase converted from 3-phase power system. Subsequently, each phase current converted from 3-phase power system cannot be maintained in balance any longer and thus the traction load can bring about imbalance in three-phase voltage. Therefore, the exact assessment of voltage unbalance must be carried out preferentially as well as load forecast at stages of designing and planning for electric railway system. The evaluation of unbalance voltage in areas, such as electric railway depots should be a prerequisite with more accuracy. The conventional researches on voltage unbalance have dealt with connection schemes of the transformers used in ac AT-fed electric railroads system and induced formulas to briefly evaluate voltage unbalance in the system(3). These formulas are still being used widely due to their easy applicabilities on voltage unbalance evaluation. Meanwhile, they don't take into account detailed characteristics of ac AT-fed electric railroads system, being founded on some assumptions. Accordingly. accuracy still remains in question. This paper proposes a new method to more effectively estimate voltage unbalance index. In this method, numerous diverted circuits in electric railway depots are categorized in three components and each component is defined as a two-port network model. The equivalent circuit for the entire power supply system is also described into a two-port network model by making parallel and/or series connections of these components. Efficiency and accuracy in voltage unbalance calculation as well can be promoted by simplifying the circuits into two-port network models.

하이브리드 전기 차량 내에 존재하는 DC-DC 컨버터 또는 DC-AC 인버터에 의해 스위칭 잡음이 발생된다. 이 스위칭 잡음은 컨버터 또는 인버터의 스위칭 회로 내에 존재하는 전력 다이오드의 역 회복 동작에 의해 발생된다. 다이오드의 반전 시간과 역 회복 시간이 역 회복 구간의 모양을 결정한다. 본 논문은 스위칭 잡음의 주파수 스펙트럼을 다이오드 역 회복 구간의 모양을 통해 예측하고, 측정 결과와 비교하여 주요 주파수 구간이 다이오드의 반전 시간과 직접적인 연관이 있다는 것을 확인하였다.
