This study aims to analyze price information system and pricing label operation process, which are important information delivery systems of retail stores. This study also intends to identify the problems in store operation and identify academic and practical methods. In-depth interviews, direct observation, and service blueprint techniques were used to define problems in the existing business operation process, and an operating process based on the electronic shelf label (ESL) system is designed as an alternative to problem solving. The changes of the operating process before and after introduction were compared. Results of this study suggest practical implications that the ESL system can be used to solve the problems of the current price management process. The study also suggests the academic significance of presenting a complex research method of problem finding, cause analysis, and alternative presentation by using each research method complementarily.

Graphene has been considered as one of the potential post Si-materials due to its high mobility. [1] However, since graphene is semi-conductor with zero band gap, it is difficult to achieve high Ion/Ioff ratio, one of the most important requirements for commercial devices. There have been many attempts to open its band gap for high Ion/Ioff ratio, but most of them end up lowering the mobility. [2-5] Thus, we proposed and demonstrated a new device structure for graphene transistor based on one of the unique properties of graphene for high Ion/Ioff: using this approach, we were able to achieve the ratio over $10^5$. [6] Our device has several major advantages over previously proposed graphene based electronic devices. Since our device does not alter the given properties of graphene, such as opening the band gap, it has no fundamental issues on mobility degradations. In addition, our device is fully compatible with current Si technology and we were able to fabricate the devices with 6 inch wafer scale with CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) grown graphene. In this presentation, we will discuss about the details of our graphene device including the device structure and the detailed understanding of working mechanism. We will present device characteristics including I-V curves with $10^5$ on/off ratio. We will also present the performance of an inverter based on our devices. Finally, we will discuss the current issues and their potential solutions.

We have investigated the photolithographic patterning method of light emitting polymer film for polymer light emitting diodes (PLED). Blue light emitting polymers based on polyfluorene, which can be cured photochemically to yield an insoluble form, have been synthesized using Ni(0) mediated Yamamoto polymerization. The relationship between patterning property and several variables such as the intensity of the exposed UV light, the concentrations of additives, has been studied by using optical microscope analysis, UV/visible spectroscopy, and photoluminescence. We have successfully fabricated PLEDs composed of the patterned emissive layer and their electroluminescence property has been also investigated. In this presentation, the detailed photolithographic patterning method and its application for polymer light emitting display will be discussed.

The next generation Web 2.0 users are requiring a screen that satisfies visual and emotional factors regarding UI and the possibility of constant recognition about various information. To actively deal with these kinds of user demands, dual cooperation between the developer and designer is becoming more urgently needed. For this, Microsoft released Silverlight, a tool for when making a web presentation that enables persons to create a visually stunning webpage using diverse platforms and function. We applied clarity and animation to existing windows concepts, using Silverlight with which designers and developers can work together and is accessable to many development tools, and provided 3D effects to implement a Warehouse Management System.

Organometallic complexes containing unpaired spins, such as metalloporphyrin or metallophthalocyanine, have extensively studied with increasing interests of their promising model systems in spintronic applications. Additionally, the use of these complexes as an acceptor molecule in chemical sensors has recently received great attentions. In this presentation, we have investigated adsorption of nitric oxide (NO) molecules at Co-porphyrin molecules on Au(111) surfaces with scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy at low temperature. At the location of Co atom in Co-porphyrin molecules, we could observe a Kondo resonance state near Fermi energy in density of states (DOS) before exposing NO molecules and the Kondo resonance state was disappeared after NO exposing because the electronic spin structure of Co-porphyrin were modified by forming a cobalt-NO bonding. Furthermore, we could locally control the chemical reaction of NO dissociations from NO-CoTPP by electron injections via STM probe. After dissociation of NO molecules, the Kondo resonance state was recovered in density of state. With a help of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we could understand that the modified electronic structures for NO-Co-porphyrin could be occurred by metal-ligand hybridization and the dissociation mechanisms of NO can be explained in terms of the resonant tunneling process via molecular orbitals.

Thermoelectric materials can convert directly waste heat to electricity and vice versa. The improvement of the thermoelectric efficiency strongly depends on the dimensionless figure of merit, $ZT=S^2{\sigma}T/{\kappa}$, where S is the Seebeck coefficient, ${\sigma}$ is the electrical conductivity, T is the absolute temperature, and ${\kappa}$ is the thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity consists of the electronic contribution (${\kappa}_e$) and phonon contribution (${\kappa}_{ph}$). It is very challenge to increase the power factor, $S^2{\sigma}$ and to reduce the thermal conductivity simultaneously because the power factor and electronic thermal conductivity are coupled. One strategy is to decrease the phonon thermal conductivity. The phonon thermal conductivity can be decreased by controlling the grain size and structural defects such as dislocations and twinning. In order to achieve enhancements in thermoelectric efficiency, microstructures that can form numerous interfaces have been investigated intensively for controlling the transport of charge carriers and heat carrying phonons. In this presentation, we report the heterogeneous microstructure of $Mg_2Si_{0.6}Sn_{0.4}$ thermoelectric materials and investigation of its influence on thermoelectric properties.

The fabrication, characterization and manipulation of nanoparticle system brings together physics, chemistry, materials science and biology in an unprecedented way. Phenomena occurring in such systems are fundamental to the workings of electronic devices, but also to living organisms. The ability to fabricate the surface of nanoparticles Is essential in the further development of functional devices that incorporate nanoscale features. Even more essential is the ability to introduce a wide range of chemical and materials flexibility into these structures to build up more complex nanostructures that can ultimately rival biological nanosystems. In this respect, polymers are potentially ideal nanoscale building blocks because of their length scale, well-defined architecture, controlled synthesis, ease of processing and wide range of chemical functionality that can be incorporated. In this presentation, we will look at a number of promising polymer-based nanoparticle fabrication strategies that have been developed recently, with an emphasis on those techniques that incorporate nanostructured polymeric particles into electronic devices or biomedical applications. And functional nanoparticles deliberately designed using several powerful process methods and their application will be discussed. Nanostructured nanoparticles, what we called, implies dispersed colloids with the size ranged from several nanometers to hundreds of nanometer. They have extremely large surface area, thus it is very important to control the morphology or surface functionality fitted for adequate objectives and properties. Their properties should be controlled for various kind of bio-related technologies, such as immunomagnetic cell separation, drug delivery systems, labeling and identification of lymphocyte populations, extracorporeal and hemoperfusion systems, etc. Well-defined polymeric nanoparticles can be considered as smart bomb or MEMS.

This study analyzes some important implications for the forthcoming revision of eUCP through the methodology of expected utility maximization theory. The overall results are as follows. First, beneficiary with an initial wealth has a risk-averse utility in traditional letter of credit transaction, and he would be more risk-averse in eUCP transaction. Secondly, the beneficiary who has risk-averse utility will pay for the risk premium to reduce the risk of corruption of an electronic record by means of cost of loss reduction activities. Thirdly, the cost of loss reduction activities is represented by a convex cost function, Fourthly, a risk averse beneficiary pursues loss reducing activities to the point where the expected marginal product of loss reduction is less than its marginal cost. Fifthly, a more risk-averse eUCP beneficiary will always select a higher level of loss reduction as long as the effectiveness of loss reduction is certain. Sixthly, when the effectiveness of loss reduction is uncertain, the more risk-averse eUCP beneficiary does not necessarily choose a higher level of loss reducing activities. Finally, it would be more reasonable that eUCP Article 11 should protect eUCP beneficiary who pursues a higher level of loss reducing activities.
