Red color OLED has been fabricated by the doping method apply to CBP using co-evaporation, GDI4349 of phosphorescent dopant, and rubrene of fluorescent dopant. The OLED structure are multi-layer of ITO(150 nm)/ELM_HIL(50 nm)/ELM_HTL(30 nm)/CBP : Rubrene, GDI4349 (30 nm)/BAlq (30 nm)/LiF(0.7 nm)/Al (100 nm). Accomplished best result at 3 vol.% of rubrene when the OLEDs were made of 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 vol.% doped rubrene. The highest efficiency of 7.2 cd/A was resulted at 8 vol.% of GDI4349 when the OLEDs were made among 5, 8, 11, 14 vol.% of GDI4349. Obviously, the best concentration of rubrene at 3 vol.% and changing GDI4349 concentration to 5, 8, 11, 14 vol.% OLED dramatically enhanced characteristic of resulted 10.7 cd/A at 8 vol.% of GDI4349. This result would understand to analyse as the emission efficiency increases by energy transport efficiency increase using GDI4349 energy transfer when rubrene absorbs the energy from CBP of fluorescences host.

Hybrid $SiO_2-TiO_2$ photoelectrode with different type of layers was investigated in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). Use of a thin layer of nanocrystalline $TiO_2$ would imply reduction in the amount of dye coverage, however, lower amount of dye in the thin films would imply fewer electron generation upon illumination. So, thus, it becomes necessary to include a $SiO_2-TiO_2$ layer for increase light harvesting effect such that the lower photon conversion due to thin layer could be compensated. In this paper reports the use of transparent high surface area $TiO_2$ layer and an additional $SiO_2-TiO_2$ layer, thus ensuring adequate light harvesting in these devices. The best solar conversion efficiency 6.6% under AM 1.5 was attained with a multi-layer structure using $TiO_2$ layer/$SiO_2-TiO_2$ layer/$TiO_2$ layer for the light harvesting and this had resulted to about 44% increase in photocurrent density of dye-sensitized solar cells.

A simple doping method to fabricate a very thin channel body of the n-type fin field-effect-transistor (FinFET) with a 20 nm gate length by solid-phase-diffusion (SPD) process is presented. Using As-doped spin-on-glass as a diffusion source of arsenic and the rapid thermal annealing, the n-type source-drain extensions with a three-dimensional structure of the FinFET devices were doped. The junction properties of arsenic doped regions were investigated by using the $n^+$-p junction diodes which showed excellent electrical characteristics. Single channel and multi-channel n-type FinFET devices with a gate length of 20-100 nm was fabricated by As-SPD and revealed superior device scalability.

Recently, ultrasound therapy has become a new and effective treatment for many brain diseases. Therefore, skull-mimicking phantoms have been developed to simulate the skull and brain tissue of a human and allow further research into ultrasound therapy. In this study, the suitability of various skull-mimicking materials(HDPE, POM C, Acrylic) for studies of brain-tumor treatments was evaluated using focused ultrasound. The acoustic properties of three synthetic resins were measured. The skull-mimicking materials were then combined with an egg white phantom to observe the differences in the ultrasound beam distortion according to the type of material. High-intensity polyethylene was found to be suitable as a skull-mimicking phantom because it had acoustic properties and a denatured-area shape that was close to those of the skull,. In this study, a skull-mimicking phantom with a multi-layer structure was produced after evaluating several skull-mimicking materials. This made it possible to predict the denaturation in a skull in relation to focused ultrasound. The development of a therapeutic protocol for a range of brain diseases will be useful in the future.

Magnesium alloys have been widely used for many structural components of automobiles and aircraft because of high specific strength and good cast-ability in spite of hexagonal closed-packed crystal structure of pure magnesium. In this study, it is studied about the forming characteristics of press forging of AZ31 magnesium alloy by MSC/MARC in case of material having one boss and MSC/Supeiforge in case of material having multi-boss with heat transfer analysis during deformation at elevated temperature. For these results it is simulated about temperature distribution, strain distribution, and stress distribution of AZ31 Magnesium alloy. During the press forging, foot regions of bosses showed greater temperature rise than other areas of AZ31 sheet. Finally the plastic strain of AZ31 sheet did not remarkably vary with increasing temperature from 373 to 473K, while it significantly increased as the forming temperature increased from 473 to 573K, which is related with the change in micro-structures, such as dynamic re-crystallization occurring during the deformation process.

In this paper, the ZnO surge arrester performance of power distribution class has been studied under different manufacturing conditions such as housing materials(polymeric, porcelain), interface sealants and one-body molding type. In the recent years, the polymeric ZnO surge arresters have been developed and put into operations based on their excellent characteristics. For polymeric surge arresters, the inner gas volume is extremely small, especially in solid insulation polymeric arresters there are not any gas volume inside arresters in the structure due to polymeric materials are filled into the internal gas volume. The sealing integrity is related to safe operation of surge arrester, the prime failure reason of porcelain housed arresters is moisture ingress. In this paper, the sealing integrity of polymeric surge arresters is investigated with moisture multi-aging test and ingress test. The evaluation techniques are used to inspect the sealing integrity of polymeric arresters, including leakage current, surface temperature, reference voltage and dissipation factor.

High-$T_c$ superconducting (HTSC) power cable is one of the interesting parts in power application using HTSC wire. However, its stacked structure makes the current distribution between conducting layers non-uniform due to difference between self inductances of conducting layers and mutual inductances between two conducting layers, which results in lower current transmission capacity of HTSC power cable. In this paper, the transport current distribution between conducting layers was investigated through the numerical analysis for the equivalent circuit of HTSC power cable with a shield layer, and compared with the case of without a shield layer. The transport current distribution due to the increase of the contact resistance in each layer was improved. However, its magnetization loss increased as the contact resistance increased. It was confirmed from the analysis that the shield layer was contributed to the improvement of the current distribution between conducting layers if the winding direction and the pitch length were properly chosen.

Gallnuts are known to exert various pharmaceutical properties that include anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and detoxifying effects. Gallnut extract is thought to be a particularly safe antimicrobial agent for textile application due to its natural origins. Hence, textiles were dyed with gallnut to develop multi-functional clothing material with no harmful effects. In this study, three kinds of cool touch woven fabrics, each comprised of 100% viscose rayon filament, viscose rayon filament/high absorption & quick dry (polyester) filament, and viscose rayon $filament/tencel^{(R)}$ spun yarn, were prepared and used as substrates for gallnut dyeing to especially develop functional cool touch textiles for summer clothing material. On the other hand, gallnut dyeing was conducted with mordanting with iron, lime or alum, which induced different colors on the dyed textiles. Dyed textiles were then investigated by SEM, FTIR, antibacterial test, and antioxidant test. Subsequently, gallnut dyed textiles indicated excellent antibacterial ability and deodorization activity regardless of mordant species. However, only gallnut dyed textiles mordanted with iron and alum showed significant antioxidant ability. In addition, the dyeing processes impair the cool touch feeling of the textiles by changing the micro structure of the textile surface.

The frequency selective surface (FSS) embedded hybrid composite materials have been developed to provide excellent mechanical and specific electromagnetic properties. Radar absorbing structures (RASs) are an example material that provides both radar absorbing properties and structural characteristics. The absorbing efficiency of an RAS can be improved using selected materials having special absorptive properties and structural characteristics and can be in the form of multi-layers or have a certain stacking sequence. However, residual stresses occur in FSS embedded composite structures after co-curing due to a mismatch between the coefficients of thermal expansion of the FSS and the composite material. In this study, to develop an RAS, the thermal residual stresses of FSS embedded composite structures were analyzed using finite element analysis, considering the effect of stacking sequence of composite laminates with square loop (SL) and double square loop (DSL) FSS patterns. The FSS radar absorbing efficiency was measured in the K-band frequency range of 21.6 GHz. Residual stress leads to a change in the deformation of the FSS pattern. Using these results, the effect of transmission characteristics with respect to the deformation on FSS pattern was analyzed using an FSS Simulator.

It is a recent trend for advanced ships and submarines to incorporate composite structures with viscoelastically damping material. Much research has been done on curve-fitting techniquesto identify vibration characteristic parameters such as natural frequencies, modal damping ratios, and mode shapes of the composite structure. In this study, an advanced technique for accurately determining vibration characteristic of a circular cylindrical shell-attached viscoelastically damping material is used, based on a multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) curve-fitting method. First, an initial value is obtained by using a linear least square method. Next, using the initial value, the exact modal parameters of the composite circular cylindrical shell are obtained by using a nonlinear least square method. Results show computation time is greatly decreased and accurate results are obtained by the MDOF curve-fitting method.
