  • There is difficulty in predicting the program efficiency of NOR type nonvolatile memory device adopting channel hot electron injection (CHEI) as program operation mechanism accurately since MOSFET on SOI has floating body. In this study, the dependence of program efficiency for SOI nonvolatile memory device of 200 nm channel length on SOI depletion conditions, partial depletion and full depletion, was quantitatively investigated with the aid of numerical device simulation [1].

  • Symbiotic stars are binary systems composed of a hot white dwarf and a mass losing giant. Many symbiotic stars are known to exhibit broad wings around Balmer emission line. We show high resolution spectra of S-type symbiotic stars, Z Andromedae and AG Draconis, obtained with the ESPaDOnS and the 3.6 m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, in which we find prominent broad wings around Balmer lines. We adopt Monte-Carlo technique to consider two types of wing formation mechanisms, which are Thomson scattering by free electron in H II region and Raman scattering by atomic hydrogen in H I region. We find that Thomson wings of $H{\alpha}$ and $H{\beta}$ have the same widths in the Doppler space due to the cross section independent of wavelength. In contrast, Raman $H{\alpha}$ wings are 3 times broader widths than $H{\beta}$ counterparts, which is attributed to the different cross sections and branching ratios. Our CFHT data show that $H{\alpha}$ wings of Z Andromedae and AG Draconis are broader than $H{\beta}$ wings, lending strong support to the Raman scattering origin of Balmer wings in these objects.

  • Transparent conductive aluminum-doped ZnO(AZO) films Were prepared by a ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method at the substrate temperature below 23$0^{\circ}C$. A vertical type hot wall furnace was used as a reactor in the deposition system. Zinc acetate dissolved in methanol was selected as a precursor. The substrate temperature was varied from 18$0^{\circ}C$to 24$0^{\circ}C$. Aluminum (Al) was doped into ZnO films by incorporating anhydrous aluminum chloride (AlCl$_3$) in the zinc acetate solution. The proportion of the Al in the starting solution was varied from 0 wt % to 3.0 wt %. The crystallographic properties and surface morphologies of the films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The resistivity of the films was measured by the Van der Pauw method, and the mobility and carrier concentration were obtained through the Hall effect measurements Transmittance was measured in the visible region. The effects of substrate temperature and aluminum content in the starling solution on the structural and electrical properties of the AZO films are discussed

  • Infrared transparent ZnS ceramics were synthesized through hydrothermal synthesis ($180^{\circ}C$, 70 h) and sintered using a hot press process at $750^{\circ}C-1000^{\circ}C$. We carried out x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy to confirm the optical properties of the ZnS ceramics after sintering at various temperatures. The phase of ZnS nanopowders was a single phase (cubic) without the hexagonal phase. However, as sintering temperature increased, the formation and increment of hexagonal structures was confirmed. The ZnS ceramic sintered at a temperature of $750^{\circ}C$ showed poor transmittance because it was not completely sintered and because of the pore effect. The ZnS ceramic with the highest transmittance (approximately 69%) was sintered at $800^{\circ}C$. As sintering temperature increased, transmittance gradually decreased owing to the increase in the formation of the hexagonal phase.

  • The reset operation of a CCD image sensor was improved using charge trapping of a MOS structure to realize a loe voltage driving. A DC bias generating circuit was added to the reset structure which sets reference voltage and holds the signal charge to be detected. The generated DC bias is added to the reset pulse to give an optimized voltage margin to the reset operation, and is controlled by adjustment of the threshold voltage of a MOS transistor in the circuit. By the pulse-type stress voltage applied to the gate, the electrons and holes were injected to the gate dielectrics, and the threshold voltage could be adjusted ranging from 0.2V to 5.5V, which is suitable for controlling the incomplete reset operation due to the process variation. The charges trapped in the silicon nitride lead to the positive and negative shift of the threshold voltage, and this phenomenon is explained by Poole-Frenkel conduction and Fowler-Nordheim conduction. A CCD image sensor with $492(H){\;}{\times}{\;}510(V)$ pixels adopting this structure showed complete reset operation with the driving voltage of 3.0V. The resolution chart taken with the image sensor shows no image flow to the illumination of 30 lux, even in the driving voltage of 3.0V.

  • The waste seashells were used for the removal of hydrogen sulfide from a hot gas stream. The sulphidation of waste seashells with $H_{2}$S was studied in a thermogravimetric analyzer at temperature between 600 and $800^{circ}C$. The desulfurization performance of the waste seashell sorbents was experimentally tested in a fixed bed reactor system. Sulfidation experiments performed under reaction conditions similar to those at the exit of a coal gasifier showed that preparation procedure and technique, the type and the amount of seashell, and the size of the seashell affect the $H_{2}$S removal capacity of the sorbents. The pore structure of fresh and sulfided seashell sorbents was analyzed using mercury porosimetry, nitrogen adsorption, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Measurements of the reaction of $H_{2}$S with waste seashells show that particles smaller than 0.631 mm can achieve high conversion to CaS. According to TGA and fixed bed reactor results, temperature had influenced on $H_{2}$S removal efficiency. As desulfurization temperature increased, desulfurization efficiency increased. Also, maximum desulfurization efficiency was observed at $800^{circ}C$. Desulfurization was related to calcinations temperature.

  • Activated carbons were used to examine their performance for the separation of undesirable colored materials from culture broth containing hyaluronic acid. Six local samples and a NORIT ROX 08 were tested, whereas the latter was mainly studied under batch and continuous modes. The optimal wavelength for the detection of colored materials was 330nm. The optimal choice of NORIT ROX 08 provided 30% colored residuals with 96% hyaluronic acid recovery of original broth in batch experiments. The nonlinear adsorption behavior of protein and colored materials with activated carbon (C) was correlated by a Langmuir equation to give 18C/24+C and 500C/892+C for protein and colored materials, respectively. It appears that colored materials were composed of 78% protein and 22% glucose residuals on the basis of clearance results. A microscopic study using a scanning electron microscope suggests that regeneration of used activated carbon with 0.1N NaOH and hot water was not satisfactory. The present study proposes that the continuous monitoring of colored materials during purification can be accomplished by Installation of a UV monitor commonly used for continuous detection of protein during the process, as resulted from the significant correlation of color (A330)=0.353protein(mg/ml)+0.1(R=99.7%).

  • In this study, a substrate-bias assisted 2-step pulse programming method is proposed for realizing 4-bit/1-cell operation of the SONOS memory. The programming voltage and time are considerably reduced by this programming method than a gate-bias assisted 2-step pulse programming method and CHEI method. It is confirmed that the difference of 4-states in the threshold voltage is maintained to more than 0.5 V at least for 10-year for the multi-level characteristics.

  • Cyclosporin A (CyA), a potent immunosuppressive drug used in allogeneic transplants and autoimmune disease, is a typical water-insoluble drug. Recently, nanoparticle carriers were investigated to improve the intestinal absorption of drugs. In this study, CyA-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) were prepared from a hot o/w emulsion using the high pressure homogenization method. The NLCs were consisted of cationic lipids, solid lipids, liquid lipids (oils), surfactant and stabilizer. Encapsulation efficiency of CyA in NLCs was approximately 71%. The average particle size and zeta potential of NLCs were below 250 nm and above +40 mV, respectively. The morphology of NLCs was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. Compared to the CyA powder, higher in vitro release of CyA from NLCs was observed after burst release within 30 min. Thus, CyA-loaded NLCs could be applied not only for parenteral route but also for gastrointestinal administration, which needs further investigation.
