Cuff electrodes have a benefit for chronic electroneurogram(ENG) recording while minimizing nerve damage. However, the ENG signals are usually contaminated by electromyogram(EMG) activity from the surrounding muscle, the thermal noise generated within the source resistance, and the electric noise generated primarily at the first stage of the amplifier. This paper proposes a new cuff electrode to reduce the interference of EMG signals. An additional middle electrode was placed at the center of cuff electrode. As a result, the proposed cuff electrode achieved a higher signal-to-interference ratio compared to the conventional tripolar cuff. The cuff electrode was then assembled together with closure, headstage, and hermetic case including electronic circuits. This paper also presents a lownoise amplifier system to improve signal-to-noise ratio. The circuit was designed based on the noise analysis to minimize the electronic noise. The result shows that the total noise of the amplifier was below $1{\mu}V_{rms}$ for a cuff impedance of $1\;k{\Omega}$ and the common-mode rejection ratio was 115 dB at 1 kHz. In the current study, the performance of nerve cuff electrode system was evaluated by monitoring afferent nerve signals under mechanical stimuli in a rat animal model.

This study has been conducted to find out the location and amount of the subterrain water body developed in the alluvial stratum in Paho-Dong, Sungsee-Myo-n, Dalsung-Kun are. An earlier test drilling was done in this area by R.O.K. Agricultural Promotion Corporation. The area consists of a small river basin and surrounding low hills developed around the junction of the Nakdong and Kumho Rivers. The strata of this area are made of Paldal gravel, Bokhyundong and Banyawol layers which were formed in the cretaceous period of the Meso-saicera or acid dikes and covered with-irregular alluvial layers. The alluvial layer in this area is composed of rather minute particles and proportional electric resistance tests on this layer show $10^2\;-\;10^3\;\Omega/cm$. The drillings up to 12meters deep showed only the sand layer (Form 3 to 26meters in thickness) contains water. The sand layers can not be considered a good water trapping one. Applying the data from the drillings to A.Hazen's equation, $K\;=\;{cd_e}^2\;(0.7\;+0.03t)$ to get the theoretical value of the water infilterated, I calculated it as K=13.92m/day. And again the value was set to Dupuit equation, (equation omitted) to acquire the pumping water amount the result was $Q_1\;=\;77.20\;\textrm{m}^3/day$. When the data-applied to the equation for pumping water amount, (equation omitted), the results were $Q_2\;=\;122.39\;\textrm{m}^3/day$ and K = 38m/day $Q_1\;and;Q_2$ (tow types of pumping water amount) represent proper value decrease and maximum value decrease respectively. Therefore, $Q_2$ is the least amount of water we can pump. The area covers about $1,555,000\;\textrm{m}^2$ and the maximum water needed in this area amounts to $155,000\textrm{m}^3$. That means we have to drill 1,406 pumping wells. It is concluded that undertaking the project in this area is irrational or even desperate and surface water should be developed more favorably.

결합제인 LLDPE와 전기화학적 특성을 부여하는 강산성 양이온교환수지를 혼합한 후 글리세롤을 첨가하여 전기탈이온 시스템과 전기투석용 불균질 양이온교환막을 제조하였다. 결함제와 이온교환수지의 무게비율[(60%/40%)/5%, (55%/45%)/5%, (50%/50%)/5%, (40%/60%)/5%]에 따라서 막을 제조하여 각각의 기계적, 전기화학적, 형태학적, 이온투과특성을 고찰하고 상용막과 비교하였다. (50%/50%)/5%의 비율로 제조된 막의 전기화학적 특성은 이온교환 용랑 1.733meq/g, 운반율 0.96, 막저항 $16.08{\Omega}/cm^2$의 값을 나타내어 IONPURE사의 불균질 양이온교환막과 비교해 볼 때 유사한 특성값을 보였고, 이온투과특성에서는 높은 효율을 보였다. 반면에 기계적 특성은 인장강도 $62.33kg/cm^2$, 신장율 87.42%, 탄성율 $658.53kg/cm^2$으로 상용막 보다 인장강도는 우수하였지만 신장율과 탄성율은 약간 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 모든 특성치에서 (50%/50%)/5%로 제조된 막이 최적의 값을 나타내었다.

The mechanical and electrical properties of the hot-pressed and annealed $\beta-Sic$+39vol.%$ZrB_2$ electroconductive ceramic composites were investigated as a function of the liquid forming additives of $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3(6:4wt%)$. In this microstructures, no reactions and elongated $\alpha$-SiC grains with equiaxed $ZrB_2$, gains were observed between $\beta-SiC$ and $ZrB_2$, and the relative density was over 97.6% of the theoretical density. Phase analysis of the composites by XRD revealedmostly of $\alpha$-SiC(6H, 4H), $ZrB_2$, and weakly $\beta-SiC$(15R) phase. The fracture toughness decreased with increasing $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ contents and showed the highest of $6.37MPa.m^{\fraction ane-half}$ for composite added with 4wt% $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ additives at room temperature. The electrical resistivity increased with increasing $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$contents and showed the lowest of $1.51\times10^{-4}\Omega.cm$ for composite added with $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ additives at $25^{\circ}C$. This reason is the increasing tendency of pore formation according to amount of liquid forming additives $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$. The electrical resistivity of the composites was all positive temperature coefficient resistance(PTCR) against temperature up to $700^{\circ}C$.

GNP(Glycine Nitrate Process)을 이용하여$(La_{0.75}Sr_{0.25})_{1-x}FeO_{3-\delta}$를 합성하고, perovskite의 A-site deficiency에 따른 특성을 분석하기 위해 x=0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08로 바꾸어 합성하였다. SEM과 XRD분석을 통하여 균질하고 결정성이 높은 분말이 합성된것을 확인하였으며, 4단자법과 AC impedance spectroscopy를 통하여 전도도는 x = 0.02가 $750^{\circ}C$ $155{\Omega}cm^2$로 가장 우수하였으며, AC impedance결과 역시 x = 0.02가 가장 낮은 분극저항과 활성화 에너지를 가지고 있었다. 이 결과 Perovskite의 A-site deficiency를 가함에 따라 산소 결핍 및 구조의 변화가 생겼으며 이로 인해 전도도와 분극 저항, 활성화 에너지에 영향을 미친 것을 알 수 있었다.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising material for power device applications due to its wide band gap (3.26 eV for 4H-SiC), high critical electric field and excellent thermal conductivity. The Schottky barrier diode is the representative high-power device that is currently available commercially. A field plate edge-terminated 4H-SiC was fabricated using a lift-off process for opening the Schottky contacts. In this case, Ni/Ti dual-metal contacts were unintentionally formed at the edge of the Schottky contacts and resulted in the degradation of the electrical properties of the diodes. The breakdown voltage and Schottky barrier height (SBH, ${\Phi}_B$) was 107 V and 0.67 eV, respectively. To form homogeneous single-metal Ni/4H-SiC Schottky contacts, a deposition and etching method was employed, and the electrical properties of the diodes were improved. The modified SBDs showed enhanced electrical properties, as witnessed by a breakdown voltage of 635 V, a Schottky barrier height of ${\Phi}_B$=1.48 eV, an ideality factor of n=1.04 (close to one), a forward voltage drop of $V_F$=1.6 V, a specific on resistance of $R_{on}=2.1m{\Omega}-cm^2$ and a power loss of $P_L=79.6Wcm^{-2}$.

Modified oxalate method에 의해 합성한 중온형 Solid Oxide Fuel Cell 용 LSCF cathoded의 pH 변화에 따른 분말특성 및 여러 종류의 전해질에 따른 전극특성에 대해 연구하였다. LSCF를 합성하기 위한 출발물질로는 La, Sr, Co 및 Fe의 염화물과 oxalic acid, ethanol 및 $NH_4OH$를 사용하여, $80^{\circ}C$ 에서 pH 2, 6, 7, 8, 9 및 10에서 합성하였다. 합성한 LSCF 분말은 pH $2{\sim}9$까지는 단일상의 LSCF 결정상을 생성하였다. 그러나, PH 10에서는 LSCF결정상 외에 이차상인 $La_2O_3$ 결정상이 나타났으며, 또한 $800^{\circ}C$에서 4시간 하소한 경우 50 nm정도의 작은 크기를 나타내었다. 합성한 LSCF cathode 분말의 전기전도도는 pH 7에서 합성한 LSCF 분말의 경우 $600^{\circ}C$부터 $900^{\circ}C$까지 측정하였을 때 약 950 S/cm의 높은 값을 나타내었다. 또한 분극저항의 경우 같은 합성 조건에서 합성한 LSCF 분말이라도 하소조건에 따라 다른 결과를 나타내었는데, $800^{\circ}C$에서 하소한 분말의 경우 $1200^{\circ}C$에서 하소한 분말 보다 낮은 분극저항을 나타내었다. 특히 $800^{\circ}C$에서 4시간 하소하여 합성한 LSCF 분말은 $600^{\circ}C$에서 Scandia Stabilized Zirconia (ScSZ), yttria (8mol.%)-stabilized zirconia(8Y-YSZ) 및 Gadolinium Doped Ceria(GDC) 전해질을 사용하였을 때, 전극면적이 $0.5\;cm^2$일 때 각각 2.52, 1.54 및 $2.58\;{\Omega}$을 나타내었다.
