This paper a new simple PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal generation based on modified relaxation oscillator is introduced. Its advantages of the proposed principle are that the precise PWM signal can be easily achieved with a high frequency range up to several megahertz and a low-voltage power supply. The proposed circuit can accept either voltage or current modulating signal. It is very suitable for developing into Integrated Circuits (ICs) form in communication applications. The simulation and experimental results are also depicted, they shown good agreement with theoretical anticipation.

A new piezoelectreic transformer is proposed as a key device for high power transimssion. The piezoelectric transformer made of lead titanate solid solution creamic is operated with a thickness extensional vibration mode. This transformer can operate at high frequency aver several megahertz with about 90% high efficiency.

When converters operate in megahertz range, the passive components and magnetic devices generate high losses. However, the eddy current issues and choices of magnetic cores significantly affect on the design stage. Apart from that, the components' reduction, miniaturization technique and frequency scaling are required as well as improvement in thermal capability, integration technique, circuit topologies and PCB layout optimization. In transformer design, the winding and core losses give great attention to the design stage. From simulation work, it is found that E-25066 material manufactured by AVX could be the most suitable core for high frequency transformer design. By employing planar geometry topology, the material can generate significant power loss savings of more than 67% compared to other materials studied in this work. Furthermore, young researchers can use this information to develop new approaches based on concepts, issues and methodology in the design of magnetic components for high frequency applications.

The aim of present work was to fabricate the piezoelectric composite materials of low megahertz applications such as non-destructive testing of materials. Among all the various composites, those with PZT rods embedded in Spurrs epoxy with regular periodicity (1-3 connectivity) was fabricated by dice and fill method. The fabricated size of the PZT cell were 0.18X0.18, 0.28X0.28mm$^2$, respectively. And the volume ratio of the PZT cell were 52, 64%, respectively. The resonant frequency and anti-resonant frequency of the composites were 3.5 MHz and 4.3MHz, respectively. The piezoelectric coupling coefficient were about 38 and 37% and the mechanical quality factor were about 12.7 and 22. These value were very different from these of bulk PZT Plate.

The Young's modulus of a nanoscale titanium (Ti) thin-film was evaluated using a high-speed microcantilever resonating at the megahertz frequency in the present study. A 350 nm thick Ti film was deposited on the surface of a silicon microcantilever, and the morphology of the film was analyzed using the atomic force microscopy. The microcantilever was excited to resonate using an ultrasonic pulser that generates tone burst signals and the resonance frequency shift induced by the deposition of Ti was measured using a Michelson interferometer. The Young's modulus was determined through a modal analysis using the finite element method and the result was validated by the nanoindentation testing, showing good agreement within a relative error of 1.0%. The present study proposes a nanomechanical characterization technique with enhanced accuracy and sensitivity.

본 연구에서는 초음파 기법을 이용하여 메가헤르츠 대역에서 작동하는 마이크로 캔틸레버의 공진 주파수를 측정하였다. 고출력 초음파 펄스 발생기와 탐촉자를 이용하여 실리콘 재질의 마이크로 캔틸레버를 가진하였으며, 532 nm 연속파장(continuous wave) 레이저를 광원으로 하는 마이켈슨 간섭계를 사용하여 자유진동하는 마이크로 캔틸레버의 시간영역 파형을 획득하였다. 고속 푸리에 변환(fast Fourier transform)을 통한 주파수 응답 특성으로부터 마이크로 캔틸레버의 고유진동수를 평가할 수 있었으며, 유한요소법을 이용한 수치해석을 통하여 그 타당성을 검증하였다. 본 연구는 기존 원자현미경 기반의 측정기술과 대비하여 민감도를 향상시킬 수 있는 특성평가 기법을 제시한다.
