An improved dual-path energy recovery circuit (ERC) using a current source and a voltage source for plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed. The proposed ERC uses the voltage source to charge a panel and the current source to discharge the panel. Thus, the proposed circuit can make the panel charge to $V_S$ and discharge to 0V, fully and it is possible to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) of all switches in H-bridge inverter and zero current switching (ZCS) of all switches in the ERC. Moreover, it has less conduction and switching loss in ERC devices by the dual energy recovery paths for charging and discharging the panel. Furthermore, it has features of canceling the gas discharge current, high performance and the low cost ERC components. The operation principle and features of the proposed ERC are presented in detail and verified with 42-inch SD PDP.

In this paper, the light emitting efficiency, spectrum, and the lifetime of the phosphorescent devices, whose emission characteristics are strongly dominated not only by the energy transfer but also by the charge carrier trapping induced by the emissive dopant, are explained by differences in the energy levels of the host, dopant, and nearby transport layers. On the basis of our finding on device performance and photocurrent measurement data by time-of-flight (TOF), we investigated the effect of the difference of carrier trapping dopant and properties of the host materials on the efficiency roll-off of phosphorescent organic light emitting diode (OLED), along with a physical interpretation and practical design scheme, such as a multiple host system, for improving the efficiency and lifetime of devices.

Emerging gamma ray detection applications that utilize neutron-based interrogation result in the prompt emission of high-energy (>2 MeV) gamma-rays. Rapid imaging is enabled by scintillators that possess high density, high atomic number, and excellent energy resolution. In this paper, we evaluate the bright (50,000 photons/MeV) oxide scintillator, cerium-doped Gd₂Al₂Ga₃O₁₂ (GAGG(Ce)). A silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) array is coupled to a GAGG(Ce) scintillator array (12 × 12 pixels) and integrated into a coded-aperture based gamma-ray imaging system. A resistor-based symmetric charge division circuit was used reduce the multiplicity of the analog outputs from 144 to 4. The developed system exhibits 9.1%, 8.3%, and 8.0% FWHM energy resolutions at 511 keV, 662 keV, and 1173.2 keV, respectively. In addition, a pixel-identification resolution of 602 ㎛ FWHM was obtained from the GAGG(Ce) scintillator array.

Gasoline prices vary across Korea. Some gas stations charge higher prices, while others charge lower prices. In this paper, we try to find: why gasoline prices differ markedly across regions. We empirically estimate the determinants of gas prices by incorporating supply side factors as well as demand side factors into the empirical model. Empirical results show that both location-specific factors and store-specific factors affect gas prices. Concentration of competing stores, store brands, ownership of gas stations, and self-service availability influence gas prices. In addition, the availability of other customer services such as convenience stores, car wash, and auto repairs affects gas prices.

The 27Al multiple quantum magic angle spinning (MQMAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of mordenite zeolites were simulated using the point charge model (PCM). The spectra simulated by the PCM considering nearest neighbor atoms only (PCM-n) or including atoms up to the 3rd layer (PCM-m) were not different from those generated by the Hartree-Fock (HF) molecular orbital calculation method. In contrast to the HF and density functional theory methods, the PCM method is simple and convenient to use and does not require sophisticated and expensive computer programs along with specialists to run them. Thus, our results indicate that the spectral simulation of the 27Al MQMAS NMR spectra obtained with the PCM-n is useful, despite its simplicity, especially for porous samples like zeolites with large unit cells and a high volume density of pores. However, it should be pointed out that this conclusion might apply only for the atomic sites with small quadrupole coupling constants.

We have introduced polyelectrolyte micro-patterning technique employing agarose plane stamp and a hard substrate having microscale features on its surface. With this method, chemically micropatterned surfaces with both positive and negative functionalities were successfully embedded in well-defined microstructures, and selective impartment of charge functionalities was confirmed by patterning bead bearing surface charge. Furthermore, this technique allows highly sensitive immobilization of protein onto targeted surface simply by endowing functionalities, which extends the potential of its use as a tool for high-throughput protein microarray and proteomics. Because plane agarose stamp is free of structures on its surface, there is no concern for pattern collapse, and the combination of agarose plane stamp with patterned substrate is more suited for selective protein patterning compared with adopting surface-patterned agarose stamp with flat substrate. Our technique using agarose plane stamp and a substrate having microscale features on its surface suggests a range of possible applications, including the micropatterning of biofunctionalized copolymer having polyelectrolyte block, immobilization of micro- and nanoparticle with biofunctionalities such as biotin and streptavidine, and establishing optoelectronic microstructures with micro-beads on various surfaces.

Ability to transport extracted carriers from NQDs is essential for the development of most NQD based applications. Strategies to facilitate carrier transport while preserving NQDs' optical characteristics include: 1) Fabricating neat films of NQDs with modified surfaces either by adapting series of ligands with certain limitations or by applying physical processes such as heat annealing 2) Coupling of NQDs to one-dimensional nanostructures such as single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) or various types of nanowires. NQD-nanowire hybrid nanostructures are expected to facilitate selective wavelength absorption, charge transfer to 1-D nanostructures, and efficient carrier transport. Even with the vast interests in using NQD-SWNT hybrid materials in optoelectric applications, still, no reports so far have clearly elucidated the optoelectric behavior when they were assembled on the FET mainly because the complexity involving in both components in their preparation and characterization. We have monitored the optical properties of both components (NQDs, SWNTs) from the synthesis, to the assembly, and to the device. More importantly, by using pyridine molecules as a linker to non-covalently attach NQDs to SWNTs, we were able to assemble NQDs on SWNTs with precise density control without harming their electronic structures. Furthermore, by measuring electrical signals from the fabricated aligned SWNTs-FET using dielectrophoresis (DEP), we were able to elucidate the charge transfer mechanism.

최근 전 세계가 환경문제와 에너지 자원 고갈 문제에 대해 관심을 집중하고 있다. 이런 문제들을 해결하기 위한 여러 가지 방법들 중 하나가 하이브리드자동차(HEVs)이다. 그래서 하이브리드자동차 기술에 대한 사람들의 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하이브리드 자동차의 에너지 저장 시스템의 후보들은 AGM 배터리, Ni-MH 배터리 및 리튬배터리 등이다. AGM 배터리는 상대적으로 낮은 가격, 높은 충전 효율, 낮은 자가 방전 및 높은 안전성 등이 장점이다. 상용자동차에 하이브리드 자동차 시스템을 적용하기 위해서는 4개의 AGM 배터리를 2개의 직렬과 2개의 병렬로 연결해야한다. 본 연구에서는 상용차용으로 사용될 직 병렬로 연결되어 있는 AGM 배터리 시스템의 충 방전 특성을 예측하기 위하여 AGM 배터리의 충 방전 모델링을 수행하였다. AGM 배터리의 충 방전 모델링을 위해 내부에서 일어나는 전기화학 반응, 전하 보전과 물질 보존 법칙을 통해 배터리의 지배방정식으로 세웠다. 모델링 결과의 정확성을 검증하기 위해 다양한 조건에서의 실험결과와 비교하였다.

4-피리돈과 루티돈의 전자구조를 SCF MO-CI PPP 방법과 configuration analysis 법을 사용하여 연구하였다. 계산결과와 스펙트럼 분석치와는 잘 일치하였으며 첫번째 $({\pi},{\pi}^*)$ 단일상태는 두 화합물 모두 장축 방향으로 편극되어 있다. Configuration analysis 결과 가장 낮은 $({\pi},{\pi}^*)$ 단일 상태에서는 C=O 작용기의 ${\pi}$ 결합궤도로 부터 디비닐아민 부분의 ${\pi}^*$ 반결합 궤도로 전하가 이동되어 있으나 가장 낮은 $({\pi},{\pi}^*)$ 삼중상태에서는 반대로 디비닐아민 부분으로 부터 C=O 작용기 쪽으로 전하가 이동되어 있음을 알 수 있다.
