For depth machining in die and mold, Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is used generally. To make deep hole and deep shape efficiently, cemented carbide endmill for depth machining is necessary. For this purpose, cemented carbide endmill was designed using design of experiment (DOE). To improve cutting performance, endmill was coated with multilayer surface treatment, TiAlCrSiN and TiAlCrN, for higher wear resistance. In order to evaluate the endmill, Transverse Rupture Strength (TRS) test was tried for investigating the relationship between surface treatment and strength in endmill body. Scratch test was also used for measuring adhesion force of each surface treatment. To evaluate hardness of surface treatment, Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) analysis was carried out. Wear test was executed for characteristics of each surface treatment in high temperature. Consequently, TiAlCrSiN was superior to the TiAlCrN coating in case of high temperature environment such as cutting.

Plasma reactor was used to generate a high potential difference between two surfaces of concentric pyrex tubes by electrical current. The annular gap of the reactor was calculated by trial and error from the breakdown voltage equation and set at 0.45 cm. The overall objective of this research was to know the effects of the frequency, humidity, and residence time on the formation of nitrogen oxides in a plasma reactor. The primary voltage varied from 50 to 90 volts and the frequency was varied in increments of 10 Hz from 60 to 650 Hz at the primary voltage of 90. The increase in the secondary voltage was not linear but exponential at high frequencies. At a maximum concentration of about 745 ppm, the frequency and secondary voltage was 600 Hz and 4,200 volts, respectively. All tests for the effects of humidity on NO$_{x}$ production were performed at the optimal setting of 90 colts and 600 Hz frequency. Since the NO$_{x}$ production was not an one dimensional phenomenon, competing reactions were assumed to occur in the discharge chamber. The sharp peak concentration of 1,810 ppm was observed at 38% of relative humidity, The enhanced production was choked off, and the production rate rapidly dropped to 3 ppm at above 40% of relative humidity. It is assumed that the corona attacks the most vulnerable molecules in the reaction chamber before attacking other more lightly bonded molecules, possibly at humidities above 38% and the optimized 90 volt setting. Thus, there was not enough energy left after attacking all water molecules to decompose an appreciable amount of $N_2$. If nitrogen breakdown does not occur, then oxides of nitrogen are not likely to be produced.ced.

The ionizer module used in this air cleaner supplies high voltages of 3.5KV / -4KV to the discharge electrode HV+ / HV- using a winding transformer to generate positive and negative ions by electric field radiation of carbon fiber brush. The ionizer module circuit using the existing MCU has the disadvantage of large PCB size and expensive price, and the gate driver chip using the existing ring oscillator has oscillation period sensitive to PVT (Process-Voltage-Temperature) fluctuation and there is risk of fire or electric shock because there is no fault detection function by short circuit of HV+ and GND as well as HV- and GND. Therefore, in this paper, even though PVT fluctuates, by using 7-bit binary up counter, HV+ voltage reaches the target voltage by adjusting oscillation period. And an HV+ short fault detection circuit for detecting a short circuit between HV+ and GND, an HV- short fault detection circuit for detecting a short circuit between HV- and GND, and an OVP (Over-Voltage Protection) for detecting that HV+ rises above an overvoltage are newly proposed.

In this paper, an output-capacitorless, low-dropout (LDO) regulator is designed, which consumes $4.5{\mu}A$ quiescent current. Proposed LDO regulator is realized using two amplifier for good load regulation and fast response time, which provide high gain, high bandwidth, and high slew rate. In addition, a one-shot current boosting circuit is added for current control to charge and discharge the parasitic capacitance at the pass transistor gate. As a result, response time is improved during load-current transition. The designed circuit is implemented through a $0.11-{\mu}m$ CMOS process. We experimentally verify output voltage fluctuation of 260mV and recovery time of $0.8{\mu}s$ at maximum load current 200mA.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation devices has been used mainly for diagnostic purposes by measuring the functions of the nervous system rather than for treatment purposes, and has a problem of considerable energy fluctuations per repeated pulse. The majority of strokes are caused by ischemia and result in brain tissue damage, leading to problems of the central nervous system including hemiparesis, dysfunction of language and consciousness, and dysfunction of perception. Control is difficult and the size is large due to the difficulty of digitalizing the energy stored in a capacitor, and there are many heavy devices. In addition, there are many constraints when it is used for a range of purposes such as head and neck diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of nerve palsy, muscle strengthening, treatment of urinary incontinence etc. Output stabilization and minimization of the energy variation rate are required as the level of the transcranial magnetic stimulation device is dramatically improved and the demand for therapeutic purposes increases. This study developed a compact, low cost transcranial magnetic stimulation device with minimal energy variation of a high repeated pulse and output stabilization using a real time capacitor charge discharge voltage. Ischemia was induced in male SD rats by closing off the common carotid artery for 5 minutes, after which the blood was re-perfused. In the cerebrum, the number of PARP reactive cells after 24 hours significantly decreased (p < 0.05) in the TMS group compared to the GI group. As a result, TMS showed the greatest effect on necrosis-related PARP immuno-reactive cells 24 hours after ischemia, indicating necrosis inhibition, blocking of neural cell death, and protection of neural cells.

Ar-O2 분위기의 Plasma 표면 처리된 OPP 의 polymer 위에 약 400$\AA$ 정도로 sputter 코팅된 Al의 부착력에 관하여 연구를 하였다. 금속과 polymer와 같이 성질이 서로 다른 물질이 서로 결합할 때 접착력은 제품의 성능과 신뢰도를 결정하는데 매우 중요한 인자이다. 최근 고분자재료의 표면을 플라즈마 처리 (plasma surface treatment)에 의해 고분자와 금속도포(coating) 층간의 접착력향상에 따라, 증착필름 및 인쇄용 필름 등의 기능도 향상시킬 수 있다. 저온 plasma를 이용한 표면처리는 plastic 재료가 가지고 있는 기본적인 특성을 저해하지 않고, 그 표면 층만을 개량하는 plasma 또는 sputter etching 갚은 electrical discharge 방법은 진공 증착 방식에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 7$\mu\textrm{m}$의 두께 OPP polymer를 10m/min의 속도로 OPP의 표면을 연속 plasma pretreatment를 하였다. 5$\times$10-2torr에서, PEM(Plasma Emission Monitor)를 이용하여 plasma intensity에 따른 Ar/O2비를 변화시키면서 test를 하였다. AFM과 XPS를 이용하여 OPP의 표면분석을 하였다. 이 plasma처리는 기존의 D.C plasma 처리 방식과는 달리 Midium frequency AC voltage hollow cathod 방식으로 plasma를 발생된 high energy plasma 분위기를 만들 수 있다. 이러한 방식은 -cycle일 때 plasma로부터 발생된 전자가 polymer 표면을 bombard 하게 되고, +cycle 일 때 polymer 표면이 cathod 가 되어 active ion에 의해 sputtering 이 된다. 이때 plasma 처리기의 polymer 기판 후면에 magnet를 설치하여 높은 ionization을 발생시켜 처리 효과를 한층 높여 주었다. 이 plasma 처리는 표면 청정화, 표면 etching 이 동시에 행하는 것과 함께 장시간 처리에 의해 표면에서는 미세한 과, C=C기, -C-O-의 극성기의 도입에 의한 표면 개량이 된다는 것을 관찰할 수 있다. OPP polymer 표면을 Ar 100%로 plasma 처리한 경우 C-O, C=O 등의 carbonyl가 발생됨을 알 수 있었다. C-O, C=O 등의 carbynyl polor group이 도입됨에 따라 sputter된 Al의 접착력이 향상됨을 알 수 있으며, TEM 관찰 결과 grain size도 상당히 작아짐을 알 수 있었다.

agnesium Oxide (MgO) with a NaCI structure is well known to exhibit high secondary electron emission, excellent high temperature chemical stability, high thermal conductance and electrical insulating properties. For these reason MgO films have been widely used for a buffer layer of high $T_c$ superconducting and a protective layer for AC-plasma display panels to improve discharge characteristics and panel lifetime. Up to now MgO films have been synthesized by lE-beam evaporation, Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD), however there have been some limitations such as low film density and micro-cracks in films. Therefore magnetron sputtering process were emerged as predominant method to synthesis high density MgO films. In previous works, we designed and manufactured unbalanced magnetron source with high power density for the deposition of high quality MgO films. The magnetron discharges were sustained at the pressure of O.lmtorr with power density of $110W/\textrm{cm}^2$ and the maximum deposition rate was measured at $2.8\mu\textrm{m}/min$ for Cu films. In this study, the syntheses of MgO films were carried out by unbalanced magnetron sputtering with various $O_2$ partial pressure and specially target power densities, duty cycles and frequency using pulsed DC power supply. And also we investigated the plasma states with various $O_2$ partial pressure and pulsed DC conditions by Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES). In order to confirm the relationships between plasma states and film properties such as microstructure and secondary electron emission coefficient were analyzed by X-Ray Diffraction(XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy(TEM) and ${\gamma}-Focused$ Ion Beam (${\gamma}-FIB$).

최근 국내 전력시장은 초고압 대전력기기 사용이 현저히 증가하고 있어 이에 따라 부분방전 예방진단 시스템의 필요성은 절대적이며 이러한 시스템의 국산화가 절실히 요구되고 있다. 예방 진단 시스템의 국산화에 있어 부분방전 신호 측정시 신호 대 잡음비(Signal to Noise ratio)를 높이기 위해 측정용 센서의 검출가능 주파수 대역을 높게 설정하여 설계되고 있는데, 따라서 센서에서 검출된 신호를 처리하기 위한 로컬유닛 또한 국산화시 외국 시스템보다 더욱 신뢰성을 가질 수 있도록 설계되어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 기존의 마이크로프로세서를 채용한 저속 시스템을 대체할 수 있도록 더욱 빠르고 높은 신뢰성의 디지털 신호처리 기술이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 검출 센서의 아날로그 신호를 빠르게 디지털화 한 후 보다 정확한 데이터와 독립적 신호처리 그리고 네트워크를 통한 실시간 전송을 수행할 수 있는 부분방전 예방진단 시스템 로컬유닛의 프로토타입을 Digital Signal Processor (DSP)를 이용하여 구현하였다. 제작된 DSP 로컬유닛을 시험하기 위해 Real-Scale 170kV GIS Mock-up에서 부분방전 신호를 발생 시키고 센서를 통해 검출된 신호를 DSP가 처리하여 사용자의 네트워크를 통한 명령에 따른 실시간 전송모드, ${\Phi}$-q-n 진단모드로 자체 네트워크 기능을 이용하여 사용자에게 데이터를 실시간 전송하도록 하였다. 본 논문에서 구현한 DSP 로컬유닛은 대전력기기 부분방전 예방진단 시스템의 국산화에 있어 기존의 외국 시스템의 로컬유닛보다 구성이 간단하며, 실시간 신호처리 및 원거리 데이터 전송기능에서 우수한 성능을 보였다. 향후 연구에서는 다양한 분석 알고리즘을 탑재한 DSP를 개발하여 더욱 향상된 실시간 데이터 전송 및 분석기능이 우수한 DSP 로컬유닛을 개발하고자 한다.

In order to investigate the degradation behavior of PET fabrics, sodium diethylene glycolate (SDEG)-diethylene glycol (DEG) solutions were prepared and PET fabrics were treated in the solution. The dissolution rate constant and apparent activation energy of the PET fabrics were calculated by Eyring's and Arrhenius's equation respectively and measured dyeing properties, moisture and antistatic properties. Then compared SDEG-treated fabrics with NaOH-treated. The results were as follows; 1. PET fabrics decreased their weight in SDEG-DEG solution, and the decreasing rate showed a linear relationship to the treating time at constant temperature and concentration of SDEG-DEG solution. 2. The dissolution rate constant showed a linear relationship to the concentration of SDEGDEG solution and an exponential relationship to treating temperature. 3. Apparent activation energy of dissolution was 23.45 kcal/mol. 4. The K/S values and the ΔL values of fabrics treated with SDEG-DEG solution are higher and lower respectively than fabrics treated with NaOH. 5. SDEG-DEG solution treatment improved fabric's moisture regain and it reached almost maximum at about 40% weight loss. 6. In the both reagent the light, wet and sublimation fastness of fabrics are similar. 7. SDEG-DEG solution gave more electrical discharge effect to the fabrics than that of NaOH. 8. NaOH treated PET microfiber have crater-like surface, while SDEG-DEG solution give bathochromic effect to the PET microfiber because which has wrinkles on the surface.
