In this study, a thin plate-type heat pipe, instead of a solid aluminium heat sink, is used to eliminate heat released from LED components for lighting. Effects of the heat pipe size and installation angle are studied both in numerically and experimentally. According to the results, temperature on LED chip, when a heat pipe is used, is $1.2^{\circ}C$ lower than using the conventional metal PCB. The overall temperature drop is $32^{\circ}C$ if the heat pipe is properly used. The highest cooling performance is obtained in the case when the angle of a heat pipe installation is $90^{\circ}$.

LED(Light Emitting Diode) is a powerful device used in applications as diverse as replacements for aviation lighting, automotive lighting as well as in traffic signals. This study is to propose a prediction system based on the degradation model of LED which is determined by combining scale and shape parameter. The degradation model is analysed goodness of fit test using calculated R-square, and is compared with previous models. A LED prediction system using degradation model is developed to automate estimations of degradation parameters and lifetimes.

This paper demonstrates a new driving scheme that allows reducing the supply voltage of data drivers for low-power active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) displays. The proposed technique drives down the data voltage range by 50%, which subsequently diminishes in the peak power consumption of data drivers at the full white pattern by 75%. Because the gate voltage of a driving thin film transistor covers the same range as a conventional driving scheme by means of a level-shifting scheme, the low-data supply scheme achieves the equivalent dynamic range of OLED currents. The average power consumption of data drivers is reduced by 60% over 24 test images, and power consumption is kept below 25%.

The configuration of an extruded-type cooling structure was optimized for the light-emitting diode (LED) streetlights that have recently replaced convectional metal halide streetlights for energy saving. Natural convection and radiative heat transfer over the cooling structure were simulated using a numerical model with experimental verification. An improved cooling structure type was suggested to overcome the previous performance degeneration, as confirmed by analyzing the thermal flow around the existing cooling structure. A parameter study of the cooling structure geometries was also conducted and, based on the numerical results, the configuration was optimized to reduce the weight of the cooling structure. Consequently, the mass of the cooling structure was reduced by 60%, while the thermal performance was improved by 10%.

In this paper, we carried out performance analysis of mobile station with built-in antenna for PCS(Personal Communication System) band. The radiation patterns for antenna and mobile phone were simulated by using 3D simulation program, HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator) and SEMCAD(Simulation Platform for Electromagnetic Compatibility Antenna Design Dosimetry). We observed radiation pattern variation according to installation of LED(Light Emitting Diode) circuit and ground pattern. The radiation pattern of prototype mobile phone was measured, and the radio sensitivity was measured by using Agilent E5515C and chamber. The measured maximum antenna gain at 1.87GHz was 0.21dBi. The measured radio sensitivity of prototype mobile phone shows proper performances comparable to other models with external antennas.

본 연구에서는 캐소드 방향으로 발광하는 Top emission 소자를 설계 제작하였다. 이를 위하여 반투명한 금속 박막을 제작하여 전기적 특성과 광학적 특성을 비교 평가하였다. 이를 바탕으로 제작한 Top emission 소자를 bottom emission 소자와 비교하였을 때 구동 전압은 다소 높았으며 색좌표 및 스펙트럼이 이동하였는데 이동 정도와 경향성은 파장에 따라 다르게 나타났다

기존의 LED(Light Emitting Diode)를 이용한 LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) 백라이트 유닛은 무부하시 불필요한 전력소모가 발생하는 경우가 있어 보호회로가 필요하였다. 그래서 본 논문은 보호회로를 이용한 LCD 백라이트 유닛용의 LED 구동회로를 제안한다. 제안된 보호회로는 실험 결과 무부하시 피드백 제어부 IC(Integrated Circuit)의 전원전압 VCC를 UVLO(Under Voltage Lock Out)전압 이하로 강하시켜 무부하시 소비되는 전력을 줄일 수 있었다. 또, 무부하시 부스트 컨버터 출력부의 전압스트레스를 줄일 수 있었고, 유부하시 보호회로가 있는 컨버터와 보호회로가 없는 컨버터의 효율비교에서 거의 같은 효율이 측정되었다.

본 연구에서는 빛을 확산시키기 위하여 LED(light emitting diode) 봉지층내에 마이크로 스피어를 형성하였다. 마이크로 스피어는 극성이 다른 이 종의 봉지재(실리콘, 에폭시)를 혼합하여 제조하였으며, 최적 첨가비율은 0.6wt% 이내였다. 광학현미경을 이용하여 측정한 결과, 마이크로 스피어의 직경은 $4{\mu}m$ 내외였으며, 마이크로 스피어는 서로 들러붙거나 침전하지 않았다. LED의 효율은 봉지재의 첨가비율이 증가할수록 감소하였으며, 0.6wt% 첨가하였을 때 약 10% 이내의 효율 감소를 보였다. 지향각은 봉지재 첨가비율을 0${\sim}$0.6wt%로 변화시키면 50도에서 110도까지 증가하였다.

Platinum is a transition metal that is very resistant to corrosion. It is used as catalyst for converting methyl alcohol to formaldehyde, as catalytic converter in cars, for hydrocracking of heavy oils, in Fuel Cell devices etc. Moreover, Platinum compounds are important ingredient for cancer chemotherapy drugs. The nano forms of Platinum due to its unique physico-chemical properties that are not found in its bulk counterpart, has been found to be of great importance in electronics, optoelectronics, enzyme immobilization etc. The stability of Platinum nanoparticles has supported its use for the development of efficient and durable proton exchange membrane Fuel Cells. The present review concentrates on the use of Platinum conjugated with various metal or compounds, to fabricate nanocomposites, to enhance the efficiency of Platinum nanoparticles. The recent advances in the synthesis methods of different Platinum-based nanocomposites and their applications in Fuel Cell, sensors, bioimaging, light emitting diode, dye sensitized solar cell, hydrogen generation and in biosystems has also been discussed.
