Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been used as a surface measurement instrument and a tool for lithography in semiconductor process due to its high density localized beam. For those purposes, however, the maximum current of SEM Is less than 100pA, which is not enough fo material processing. In this paper SEM was modified to increase the amount of current reaching a specimen from gun part where current is generated, the possibility of applying SEM to material processing, especially microjoining, was investigated. The maximum current of SEM after modifications was measured up to 10$\mu$A, which is about 10$^{5}$ times greater than before modifications. Through experiments such as eutectic solder wetting on thin 304 stainless steel foil and microjoining of 10$\mu$m thick 304 stainless steel, the intensity of electron beam of SEM proved to be great enough fur material processing as heat source. And a tight jig system was found necessary to hold materials close enough fur successful microloining.

we analyzed the electromagnetic behavior of a superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) under the quench state using FEM. The analysis model used in this work is 5.5 KVA meander-line type SFCLs. Meshes of 3,650 triangular elements were used in the analysis of this SFCL. Analysis results showed that the distribution of current density was concentrated to inner curved line in meander-line type-SFCL and the maximum current density was 14.61 $A/m^2$ and also the maximum Joule heat was 2,030 $W/m^2$ in this region. We think that the new and the modified structure must be considered for an uniform distribution of the electromagnetic field.

This paper analyses current densities induced inside a worker using AC arc welder. Applying the boundary element method, we calculate current densities induced in organs inside a worker in case he was located at 1cm, 3cm, 5cm, 10cm, 15cm, 20cm far from a power cable of AC arc welder. As results of study, we find a maximum current density induces at a heart surface and may be higher than $10mA/m^2$ of ICNIRP guideline if he works within 15cm from a power cable.

In this paper, the safety distances and maximum permissible power (MPP) of resonant wireless power transfer systems are defined and derived with regard to human exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF). The definition is based on the calculated induced current density and electric field in the standard human model located between the transmitting and receiving coil. In order to avoid the adverse health effects such as stimulation of nerve tissues, the induced current and electric field must not exceed the basic restriction values specified in EMF safety guidelines. The different combinations of diameters of the coils and the distance between the two coils are investigated and their effects are analyzed. Two versions of EMF safety guidelines (ICNIRP 1998 and ICNIRP 2010) are used as bases for safety distance calculation and the difference between the two guidelines are discussed.

Separate-confinement hetero-structure (SCH) broad area Laser Diodes (LD's) were fabricated from $Al_{0.07}$Ga$_{0.93}$/. As single-quantum-well (SQW) grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Under pulsed operation, we obtained maximum output powers of about 0.8watt/facet and 1.83watt/facet from LD's with 60$\mu$m and 160$\mu$m channel width, respectively, without facet coatings. The differential quantum efficiency of the 60$\mu$m wide LD was about 21.7%/facet and its threshold current density was about 1k [A/cm$^{2}$]. The differential quantum efficiency of the 160$\mu$m wide LD was about 25.6%/facet and its threshold current density was about 1k[A/cm$^{2}$]. The minimum threshold current density of 60$\mu$m wide LD's was 620[A/cm$^{2}$] when the cavity length was 603$\mu$m and the minimum threshold current density of 160$\mu$m wide Ld's was 675[A/cm$^{2}$] when the cavity length was 752$\mu$m. The internal quantum efficienty and the internal loss of both LD's were 92.3% and 18.1cm$^{1}$, respectively.

Micro-sized bumps on a multi-layered build-up PCB were fabricated by pulse-reverse copper electroplating. The values of the current density and brightener content for the electroplating were optimized for suitable performance with maximum efficiency. The micro-bumps thus electroplated were characterized using a range of analytical tools that included an optical microscope, a scanning electron microscope, an atomic force microscope and a hydraulic bulge tester. The optical microscope and scanning electron microscope analyses results showed that the uniformity of the electroplating was viable in the current density range of $2-4\;A/dm^2$; however, the uniformity was slightly degraded as the current density increased. To study the effect of the brightener concentration, the concentration was varied from zero to 1.2 ml/L. The optimum concentration for micro-bump electroplating was found to be 0.6 ml/L based on an examination of the electroplating properties, including the roughness, yield strength and grain size.

To improve the luminescence characteristics of high-efficiency alternating-current plasma display panels (AC-PDPs), we developed a new hoof-type electrode structure, and we studied the spatiotemporal behavior of the density of the excited Xenon atom in the $1s_5$ metastable state via laser absorption spectroscopy. Using this structure, the maximum density of the excited Xenon atom per cell was improved by 2.4 times that when the conventional electrode structure was used.

Cyanobacteria Synechocystis PCC 6803 or the extracted thylakoid membrane from this strain was appled to photosynthetic bio-electrochemical fuel cell(PBEFC) for the production of hydrogen under the illumination of 48Klux using halogen lamp. PBEFC was composed of anode, cathode and membrane between them. Electrode material was carbon paper while electron mediator and receptor were added phenazine methosulfate(PMS) and potassium ferricyanide respectively. When water and 50 mM tricine buffer and $300{\mu}M$ PMS were added to the anode under the light condition, PBEFC produced the current density $4.4{\times}10^{-5}\;mA/cm^2$, $1.4{\times}10^{-4}\;mA/cm^2$ and $2.4{\times}10^{-4}\;mA/cm^2$, respectively. And the addition of the thylakoid membrane to the system increased current density to $1.3{\times}10^{-3}\;mA/cm^2$. Two times increase of the thylakoid membrane into the anode doubled the current density to $2.6{\times}10^{-3}\;mA/cm^2$. But the current density was not increased proportionally to the amount of thylakoid membrane increased. The system was unstable to measure the electricity output due to the foam production in the anode. Addition of triton X-100 and tween 80 stabilized the system to measure the electricity output but the current density was not increased higher than $8.4{\times}10^{-4}\;mA/cm^2$ and $2.3{\times}10^{-3}\;mA/cm^2$. When the thylakoid membrane was substituted to Synechocystis PCC 6803 cells of four-day culture which has chlorophyll contents $20.5{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, maximum current density was $1.3{\times}10^{-3}\;mA/cm^2$ with $1\;k{\Omega}$ resistance.

Four types of electrolyte were tested for the application as an electrolyte in the Zn-Br redox flow battery. Electrolyte was consist of $ZnBr_2$ (electrolyte number 1), $ZnBr_2+KCl$ (electrolyte number 2), $ZnBr_2+KCl+NH_4Br$ (electrolyte number 3) and $ZnBr_2+KCl+EMPBr(C_7H_{16}BF_4N)$ (electrolyte number 4). The each electrolyte property was measured by CV (cyclic voltammetry) method. The different between the potential of anodic and cathodic maximum current density in a CV experiment (${\Delta}E_P$) was 0.89V, 0.89V, 1.06V and 0.61V for the electrolyte number 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The electrolyte involved KCl increased conductivity which was appeared by anodic and cathodic maximum current density in a CV experiment. It was estimated that the electrolyte of number 3 ($ZnBr_2+KCl+NH_4Br$) and number 4 ($ZnBr_2+KCl+EMPBr$) could be suitable as an electrolyte in the Zn-Br redox flow battery with non-appeared bubble, non-Br formation and high anodic-cathodic maximum current density.
