  • A hydrogen liquefaction equipment by direct cooling has been designed and built at KIST. Cool-down characteristics and liquefaction performance of the equipment have been investigated. The hydrogen liquefaction equipment consists of a GM refrigerator, a liquefaction velssel, a radiation shield and a cryostat. It is found that the hydrogen starts to be liquefied in the liquefaction vessel after 40~50 minutes of cool-down from the gas state of 270K. The effect of natural convection phenomena of charged gas in liquefaction vessel on the cool-down characteristics is evaluated by comparing with those in vacuum of liquefaction vessel. It is seen that the cool-down time of a liquefaction vessel is substantially increased in vacuum environment of liquefaction vessel. The experiments have been performed for 1~5 atm of hydrogen pressure to investigate the influence of hydrogen pressure on the liquefaction rate and figure of merit(FOM). It is found that both liquefaction rate and FOM are increased as the charged hydrogen pressure is increased.

  • A thermodynamic cycle analysis is performed for refrigerator-precooled Linde-Hampson hydrogen liquefiers, including catalysts for the ortho-to-para(o-p) conversion. three different configurations of the liquefying system, depending upon the method of the o-p conversion, are selected for the analysis. After some simple and justifiable models are introduced, a general analysis program to predict the liquid yield and the figure of merit(FOM) is developed with incorporating the commercial computer code for the hydrogen properties. The discussion is focused on the effect of the two primary design parameters-the precooling temperature and the high pressrure of hydrogen. When the precooling temperature is in the range between 45 and 60 K, the optimal high pressure for the maximal liquid yield is found to be in the range between 100 to 140 bar, regardless of the o-p conversion. However, the FOM can be maximized at slightly smaller values of high pressures. It is remarkable to observe that the lower precooling temperatures are favorable since both the liquid yield and the FOM can be obtained without compressing hygrogen to extremely high pressures.

  • The compensation characteristics of 40 Gbps optical signals depending on figure of merit (FOM) of dispersion compensating fiber with dispersion coefficient of -125 ps/nm/km are investigated in this research. Simulation results show that the more fiber span number and launch power increase, the more the effects of FOM of DCF on the compensated signals increase. However, it is also confirmed that the more the effects of optical nonlinearity increase, the more FOM decrease.

  • A thermodynamic cycle analysis is performed for refrigerator-precooled Linde-Hampson hydrogen liquefiers, including catalysts for the ortho-to-para conversion. Three different configurations of the liquefying system, depending upon the method of the o-p conversion, are selected for the analysis. After some simplifying and justifiable assumptions are made, a general analysis program to predict the liquid yield and the figure of merit (FOM) is developed with incorporating the commercial computer code for the thermodynamic properties of hydrogen. The discussion is focused on the effect of the two primary design parameters - the precooling temperature and the high pressure of the cycle. When the precooling temperature is in a range between 45 and 60 K, the optimal high pressure for the maximal liquid yield is found to be about 100 to 140 bar, regardless of the ortho-to-para conversion. However, the FOM can be maximized at slightly lower high pressures, 75 to 130 bar. It is concluded that the good performance of the precooling refrigerator is significant in the liquefiers, because at low precooling temperatures high values of the liquid yield and the FOM can be achieved without compression of gas to a very high pressure.

  • 현대는 시뮬레이션을 통하여 많은 모의 훈련을 대체하고 있다. 시뮬레이터는 고유의 훈련 임무를 수행하기 위하여 기획, 제작 되어진다. 하지만 현대와 같은 종합적인 입체훈련 체계는 고유의 훈련 임무 이외에 개개의 시뮬레이터의 임무가 가상의 종합 시뮬레이션 환경에 참가한 통합 훈련 체계의 필요성을 야기하게 되었다. 또한 각각의 시뮬레이터의 기능은 보다 세분화 되었으며 높은 성능을 요구하게 되었다. 현재 KA-32 헬기 시뮬레이터 영상 프로그램을 제작하고 있는 한국소프트스페이스(주)는 독립적인 시뮬레이터들에 HLA(High Level Architecture)를 적용하여 하나의 종합 훈련 시스템을 구축하였다. 고유의 임무를 지닌 시뮬레이테는 각각의 임무를 가상의 종합 훈련 환경에 참가하여 서로간의 훈련 효과를 극대화 시켜화 시켜준다. HLA 기반의 종합 훈련 시스템의 RTI(Run-Time Infrastructure)는 Pitch 사의 pRTI를 사용하였으며, 가상의 종합 시뮬레이션 환경의 핵심이 되는FOM(Federation Object Model)은 호환성을 및 모든 객체의 표현을 위하여 RPR FOM(Real-time Reference FOM)을 사용하였다. 본 종합 훈련 시스템에서는 각각의 시뮬레이션간에 최고의 성능을 내기 위하여, 기능 세부화 하여 구성하였다. Terrion 사의 FLAMES는 종합 훈련 시스템의 시뮬레이션 진행/설정 및 분석을 담당하며, Mantis는 훈련 상황을 사실감 있는 3 차원 영상으로 참가자에게 전달하여 준다.

  • Orostachys malacophyllus grow on the old roofing tile or on the rock of mountain and is belong to Crassulaceae family. After air drying for Orostachys malacophyllus (OM), using the mixture of lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus) was fermented (FOM). OM and FOM extracted using water (W), ethanol (E) and methanol (M) and were measured extracts yield, pH and Brix. Extracted OM and FOM were tested by in vitro experimental models of α,α´-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, Fe/Cu reducing power, linoleic acid peroxidation using ferric thiocyanate and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) methods and peroxidation of rat liver homogenate. In addition, the bioactive materials (phenolic compounds, flavonoids and minerals) were measured. The highest phenolic compounds and flavonoids were OME 122.2 mg/100 g and OME 84.0 mg/100 g. OM and FOM′s major minerals were K, Ca and Mg. The highest free radical scavenging activity showed in FOMM (93.9%), OMM (93.4%), FOME (92.1%) and OME (91.9%) at 0.5% additional level. Fe reducing powers were strong in FOME and FOMM and Cu reducing powers were strong in OME and FOMM. Antioxidant activities on lipid peroxidation using rat homogenate as measured by TBARS method showed strong in FOME and on lipid peroxidation of linoleic acid as measured by ferric TBA method showed strong in OME and FOME and measured by ferric thiocyanate showed strong in FOME and FOMM.

  • This paper presents a low power ${\Sigma}{\Delta}$ modulator for an implantable chip to acquire a bio-signal such as EEG, DBS, and EMG. In order to reduce a power consumption of the proposed fourth order modulator, two op-amps utilized for the first two integrators are reconfigured to drive the second two integrators. The KT/C noise reduction circuit in the first two integrators is employed to enhance SNR of the modulator. The proposed circuit was fabricated in a 0.18 um CMOS n-well 1 poly 6 metal process with the active chip core area of $900um{\times}800um$ and the power consumption of 830 uW. Measurement results were demonstrated to be SNDR of 76 dB, DR of 77 dB, ENOB of 12.3 bit at the input frequency of 250 Hz and the clock frequency of 256 kHz. FOM1 and FOM2 were measured to be 41 pJ/step and 142.4 dB, respectively.

  • ITO는 결정질 실리콘 태양전지의 anti-reflection coating (ARC) 층으로써 적합한 물질이다. ARC layer로써 구조적, 전기적 그리고 광학적 최적 조건의 특성을 얻기 위해는 높은 figure of merit(FOM)를 가져야 하고 결정방향 제어를 해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 결정질 실리콘 태양전지에 가장 적합한 ITO ARC layer의 특성 찾기 위해 Radio frequency magnetron sputter를 이용하여 공정 조건가변 실험을 진행 하였으며 높은 FOM을 갖는 ITO 반사방지막을 shallow emitter형 결정질 실리콘 태양전지에 적용하였으며 ITO 박막은 shallow emitter층과 완벽한 ohmic 접합을 이루었다. ITO ARC layer를 적용한 Shallow emitter형 태양전지는 81.59%의 fill factor와 $35.52mA/cm^2$의 단락전류를 보이며 17.27%의 광변환 효율을 보였다.
