  • The OISF (Oxidation Induced Stacking Fault)is expected to affect the electrical properties in Si single crystals, and the nuclei of OISF are believed to be formed during the crystal growing process. Initial oxygen concentration, dopant type and its density, and cooling rate are regareded as major factors on OISF formation. In this study, the variations of OISF density under various cooling rate were investigated. Si single crystal was heated to $1400^{\circ}C$ in Ar ambient and cooled down to room temperature at different cooling rate, using horizontal tube furnace. After that, they were oxidized at $1150^{\circ}C$, and then, OISF was observed with optical microscope. The relation between oxide procipitates and OISF nucleation was investigated by FTIR analysis. As a result, it was found that there exists the intermediate cooling rate range in which OISF nucleation is highly enhanced. And also, it was found that OISF nucleation is closely related with silicon oxide procipitation in Si single crystals.

  • The protection switching technology is widely adopted in the fiber-optical transmission equipments based on TDM(Time Division Multiplexing), such as PDH, SDH/SONET. A variety of protection switching algorithms for Ethernet networks and the progress of standardization are summarized in the document. There are several kinds of protection switching algorithms for Ethernet networks, such as STP, RSTP, MSTP and etc. However, since Ethernet signal move through detour route, it causes much time to recover. Accordingly, it is difficult to secure a usability of Ethernet networks and QOS(Quality of Service). Also, if the protection switching protocol standardized by IEEE and ITU-T is used, it remains a inherent network switching time for protection. Therefore, a specific protection switching algorithm for Ethernet are needed for seamless and stable operation of Ethernet networks service for Distribution Automation System(DAS). A reliable protection algorithm with no switching delay time is very important to implement Self-healing service for DAS. This study of FPGA based protection switching algorithm for Ethernet networks shows that in case of faults occurrence on distribution power network, immediate fault isolation and restoration are conducted through interaction with distribution equipments using P2P(Peer to Peer) communication for protection coordination. It is concluded that FPGA based protection switching algorithm for Ethernet networks available 0ms switching time is crucial technology to secure reliability of DAS.

  • In semiconductor manufacturing field, all equipments have various sensors to diagnosis the situations of processes. For increasing the accuracy of diagnosis, hundreds of sensors are emplyed. As sensors provide millions of data, the process diagnosis from them are unrealistic. Besides, in some cases, the results from some data which have same conditions are different. We want to find some information, such as data and knowledge, from the data. Nowadays, fault detection and classification (FDC) has been concerned to increasing the yield. Certain faults and no-faults can be classified by various FDC tools. The uncertainty in semiconductor manufacturing, no-faulty in faulty and faulty in no-faulty, has been caused the productivity to decreased. From the uncertainty, the rough set theory is a viable approach for extraction of meaningful knowledge and making predictions. Reduction of data sets, finding hidden data patterns, and generation of decision rules contrasts other approaches such as regression analysis and neural networks. In this research, a RGB sensor was used for diagnosis plasma instead of optical emission spectroscopy (OES). RGB data has just three variables (red, green and blue), while OES data has thousands of variables. RGB data, however, is difficult to analyze by human's eyes. Same outputs in a variable show different outcomes. In other words, RGB data includes the uncertainty. In this research, by rough set theory, decision rules were generated. In decision rules, we could find the hidden data patterns from the uncertainty. RGB sensor can diagnosis the change of plasma condition as over 90% accuracy by the rough set theory. Although we only present a preliminary research result, in this paper, we will continuously develop uncertainty problem solving data mining algorithm for the application of semiconductor process diagnosis.

  • Daegokcheon Stream in Daegok-ri, Ulju-gun, is an area with a developed valley and bedrock from Gajisan Provincial Park to the confluence of the Taehwa River across the Yangsan Fault. To measure the rock of Bangudae petroglyphs, the mineralogical weathering, joints, and scours or cavities at the bottom were confirmed. The measurement was carried out for a short period of time on the joint of the bedrock on which the Bangudae petroglyphs were engraved. Compared to the measured value obtained using existing optical fiber (Ch4 150 ㎛), a displacement value of 300 ㎛ was obtained using the non-attached, non-contact type of measuring instrument. In the future, it is inferred that this instrument could be used for various cultural properties if the HSV-value suitable for illuminance and various measurement experiences are stored.

  • IPTV Services that is representative union service of broadcasting and telecommunication need guarantee of QoS, efficiency of multicasting, and hish bandwidth on the network. Because typical TDM based metro transport network was designed by transporting fixed voice traffic with stable and recovering method, it has a defect of bottleneck and a waste of bandwidth for acceptance of data traffic with burst feature and then all of data are treated equally at the transport network because it cannot classify between advanced high end service and best effort low end service. for completely resolving this kind of problem about increasing burst traffic and QoS issues, firstly we need to new design for transport network. This paper presents transformation method from TDM based metro transport network to packet based transport network and advantage and effectiveness of packet based transport network and also indicates technical factor and characters about method of packet transport system. As a result of research, the Packet Transport System, which is a transmission network for packet delivery, take in not only a specific character of legacy TDM but QoS, Multicast and high bandwidth, then, it is able to keep an effective bandwidth and a stabilized performance of packet transmissions. Additionally, if a fault be occurred on an optical link, the system is able to guarantee a differential QoS by an each service class using an algorithm to make certain of a traffic existence and contain a protective mechanism.

  • Statement of problem: Ceramic restorations should be made of porcelain layers of different opacity, shade, and thickness in order to provide a natural appearance. Lithium disilicate glass-ceramic system has superior color reproducibility, because it uses the ceramic ingot which is similar to teeth shade and uses the staining technique and layering technique. However, staining technique has a fault of discoloration. Also, porcelain is divided core and dentin layer, it is not enough to study about the influence of porcelain layer thickness and shade on the shade of ceramic restorations. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of porcelain layer thickness and color on the final shade of ceramic restorations. Materials and method: The CIE $L^*a^*b^*$(CIELAB) values of 72 assembled specimens, each consisting of 3 discs (enamel porcelain 0.2 mm/dentin porcelain -1.2, 0.9, 0.7, 0.5 or 0.3 mm/ceramic core -0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9 or 1.2 mm, diameter is 1.0 mm) were evaluated with a spectrophotometer (Model Chromaview 300, Spectron Tech Co, Korea) for the shade A1, A2, A3 and A4. Distilled water (refractive index: 1.7) was used to attain optical contact between the layers. White, white gray, and white brown backgrounds were used to assess the influence of the background on the final shade. And the mean color difference value$({\Delta}E)$ was calculated. Results and conclusion: The results obtained from this study were as follows. 1. There was a significant correlation between the thickness ratio of the ceramic core/dentin porcelain system and $L^*,\;a^*\;and\;b^*$ values when the total thickness of specimen combination was smaller than 1.4 mm(P<0.05). 2. The specimen which the ceramic core thickness was more than 0.7 mm had the best masking effect against background colors. 3. The mean color difference value$({\Delta}E)$ is smaller than 2 $({\Delta}E<2)$ when the ceramic core thickness was larger than 0.7 mm and the total thickness of specimen was more than 1.4 mm.
