Nonvolatile semiconductor memory devices with reoxidized nitrided oxide(RONO) gate dielectric were fabricated, and nitrogen distribution and bonding species which contributing memory characteristics were analyzed. Also, memory characteristics of devices according to anneal temperatures were investigated. The devices were fabricated by 0.35$\mu\textrm{m}$ retrograde twin well CMOS processes. The processes could be simple by in-situ process of nitridation anneal and reoxidation. The nitrogen distribution and bonding state of gate dielectric were investigated by Dynamic Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry(D-SIMS), Time-of-Flight Secondary ton Mass Spectrometry(ToF-SIMS), and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS). Nitrogen concentrations are proportional to nitridation anneal temperatures and the more time was required to form the same reoxidized layer thickness. ToF-SIMS results show that SiON species are detected at the initial oxide interface and Si$_2$NO species near the new Si-SiO$_2$ interface that formed after reoxidation. As the anneal temperatures increased, the device showed worse retention and degradation properties. These could be said that nitrogen concentration near initial interface is limited to a certain quantity, so excess nitrogen are redistributed near the Si-SiO$_2$ interface and contributed to electron trap generation.

In this paper, we want to solve the problems that users want to search the progress of attack, continuity of attack, association between attackers and victims, blocking priority and countermeasures by using visualization interface with multi-rotational axis and radial axis structure. It is possible to effectively monitor and track security events by arranging a time series event based on a multi-rotational axis structured by an event generation order, a subject of an event, an event type, and an emission axis, which is an objective time indicating progress of individual events. The proposed interface is a practical visualization interface that can apply attack blocking and defense measures by providing the progress and progress of the whole attack, the details and continuity of individual attacks, and the relationship between attacker and victim in one screen.

Li₂O-based cathodes utilizing oxide-peroxide conversion are innovative next-generation cathodes that have the potential to surpass the capacity of current commercial cathodes. However, these cathodes are exposed to severe cathode-electrolyte side reactions owing to the formation of highly reactive superoxides (O^x-, 1 ≤ x < 2) from O^2- ions in the Li₂O structure during charging. Succinonitrile (SN) has been used as a stabilizer at the cathode/electrolyte interface to mitigate cathode-electrolyte side reactions. SN forms a protective layer through decomposition during cycling, potentially reducing unwanted side reactions at the interface. In this study, a composite of Li₂O and Ni-embedded reduced graphene oxide (LNGO) was used as the Li₂O-based cathode. The addition of SN effectively thinned the interfacial layer formed during cycling. The presence of a N-derived layer resulting from the decomposition of SN was observed after cycling, potentially suppressing the formation of undesirable reaction products and the growth of the interfacial layer. The cell with the SN additive exhibited an enhanced electrochemical performance, including increased usable capacity and improved cyclic performance. The results confirm that incorporating the SN additive effectively stabilizes the cathode-electrolyte interface in Li₂O-based cathodes.

Based on the nonlinear spring model coupled with perturbation method, 2nd harmonic waves generated by oblique incident ultrasound on nonlinear crack interface were calculated and investigated. Reflected and transmitted waves from the interface were determined and analyzed at various angle of incidence for the cracks with different interfacial stiffness in order to estimate the 2nd harmonic generation of incident ultrasound. It was shown in computer simulation that the 2nd harmonic components changed much with the increase of incidence angle in both reflected and transmitted wave, but became very small when the incident angle approached toward 90 degree. It can be concluded that the 2nd harmonic component of reflected wave has a meaningful amplitude as much as the transmitted 2nd harmonic wave from partly closed crack.

Experimental results are presented for gate oxide degradation, such as SILC and soft breakdown, and its effect on device parameters under negative and positive bias stress conditions using n-MOSFET's with 3 nm gate oxide. The degradation mechanisms are highly dependent on stress conditions. For negative gate voltage, both interface and oxide bulk traps are found to dominate the reliability of gate oxide. However, for positive gate voltage, the degradation becomes dominated mainly by interface trap. It was also found the trap generation in the gate oxide film is related to the breakage of Si-H bonds through the deuterium anneal and additional hydrogen anneal experiments. Statistical parameter variations as well as the “OFF” leakage current depend on both electron- and hole-trapping. Our results therefore show that Si or O bond breakage by tunneling electron and hole can be another origin of the investigated gate oxide degradation. This plausible physical explanation is based on both Anode-Hole Injection and Hydrogen-Released model.

This study was carried out to solve problems such as radio frequency band depletion, confusion risk, and security loss in existing visible wireless communication systems, and to determine the applicability of next-generation networks. A light-emitting diode (LED) light communication system was implemented with a controlling switching light module using the ATmega16 micro-controller. To solve the existing modulation effect and disturbance in visible light communication, an integrated interface was evaluated with a driving light module and analyzes its reception property. A transmitter/receiver using the ATmel's micro-controller, high-intensity white LED-6 modules, and infrared sensor KSM60WLM and visible sensor TSL250RD were designed. An experiment from the initial value of distance to 2.5 m showed 0.46 V of the voltage loss, and if in long distance, external light interference occurred and light intensity was lost by external impact and thus data had to be modified or reset repeatedly. Additionally, when we used 6 modules through the remote controller's lighting dimming, data could be transmitted up to 1.76 m without any errors during the day and up to 2.29 m at night with around 2~3% communication error. If a special optical filter can reduce as much external light as possible in the integrated interface, the LED for lighting communication systems may be applied in next generation networks.

In this paper, we present an automatic C source code generation system for DirectShow based multimedia application programming. In this system, C source code is automatically synthesized from the filter connection graph edited with GraphEdit, a utility tool provided with DirectShow SDK package from Microsoft. In traditional DirectShow programming environments, program design and brief testing steps are usually done with GraphEdit tool just by inserting filters and connecting them properly, while actual implementation of the program should be done separately. The filter connection graph information from GraphEdit is used just as a reference in such the implementation step. Therefore, our system which automatically generates C source code directly from the filter connection graph of GraphEdit seems very useful and many programmers can develop DirectShow based multimedia application programs more effectively and quickly using our system. In addition, our system supports more various media stream control functions for the generated application programs than the existing system such as Wizard which supports limited and fixed number of media control functions only. This feature allows more flexibility in the user interface of the generated source program and makes our system more practical for DirectShow based programming.

In Large scale system, components are developed by many different developers. In such a development environment, efficiency of the development depends largely on effectiveness of interface management. In the early stage of development, many components are newly defined or modified quite often. These definitions and modifications of components cause the change of interfaces between components. If changes of interfaces are not properly managed, many developers may implement components based on different version of interfaces. This causes decrease in efficiency of development. "Message Definition and Management system (MDMS)" provides the means to cope with the inefficiency of unmanaged interface definitions and changes. MDMS automatically generates source code and Interface Design Description (IDD). The automatic generation of source code and IDD prevents the disagreement between code and documents. Furthermore, MDMS shows the overall view of message flow for a system. Based on this information, we can optimize the system identifying message bottleneck and apply to support for the performance tuning of the system.
