The musculotendon model is presented to show the declines in muscle force and shortening velocity during muscle fatigue due to the repeated functional electrical stimulation (FES). It consists of the nonlinear activation and contraction dynamics including physiological concepts of muscle fatigue. The activation dynamics represents $Ca^{2+}$ binding and unbinding mechanism with troponins of cross-bridges in sarcoplasm. It has the constant binding rate or activation time constant and two step nonlinear unbinding rate or inactivation time constant. The contraction dynamics is the modified Hill type model to represent muscle force - length and muscle force - velocity relations. A muscle fatigue profile as a function of the intracellular acidification, pH is applied into the contraction dynamics to represent the force decline. The computer simulation shows that muscle force and shortening velocity decline in stimulation time. And we validate the model. The model can predicts the proper muscle force without changing its parameters even when existing the estimation errors of the optimal fiber length. The change in the estimate of the optimal fiber length has an effect only on muscle time constant in transient period not on the tetanic force in the steady-state and relaxation periods.

In this study, in order to develop low temperature sintering piezoelectric actuator, $Pb(Mg_{1/2}W_{1/2})_{0.03}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_x(Zr_{0.50},Ti_{0.50})_{1-x-0.03}$ (PMW-PNN-PZT) ceramic systems were fabricated using $CaCO_3-Li_2CO_3$ sintering aid and their dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated with the variation of PNN substitution. The piezoelectric actuator requires high piezoelectric constant $d_{33}$ and high electromechanical coupling factor kp. At the PMW-PNN-PZT ceramics with 9mol% PNN substitution sintered at $900^{\circ}C$, the density, electromechanical coupling factor kp, dielectric constant, piezoelectric constant $d_{33}$ and mechanical quality factor Qm showed the excellent values of 7.86 [$g/cm^3$], 0.584, 1881, 485 [pC/N] and 76, respectively for piezoelectric actuator application.

AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic structures have been grown by atmosheric pressure-MOCVD . The Al incorporation efficiency is constant but slightly exceeds the Ga incorporation during the growth of AlGaAs layers at $650^{\circ}C$ . Meanwhile , the In incorporation efficiency is constant but slightly less than the Ga incorporation in InGAAs layers. InGaAs/GaAs QWs were grown and their optical properties were characterized . $\delta$-doped Al0.24Ga0.76As/In0.16 Ga0.84As p-HEMT structures were successfully grown by MOCVD and their transport properties were characterized by Hall effect and SdH measurements. SdH Measurements at 3.7K show clear magnetoresistance oscillations and plateaus in the quantum Hall effect confirming the existence of a two-dimensional electron gas(2DEG) and a parallel conduction through the GaAs buffer layer. The fabricated $1.5\mu\textrm{m}$gatelength p-HEMTs having p-type GaAs in the buffer layer show a high transconductance of 200 mS/mm and a good pinch-off characteristics.

The SiOCH films that low dielectric interlayer dielectric materials were deposited on p-type Si(100) substrates through the dissociation of BTMSM precursors with oxygen gas by using PECVD method. BTMSM precursor was introduced with the flow rates from 42 sccm to 60 sccm by 2 sccm step in the constant flow rate of 60 sccm $O_2$. SiOCH thin films were annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. The electrical property of SiOCH thin films was studied by MIS, Al/SiOCH/p-Si(100), structure. Annealed samples showed even greater reductions of the maximum capacitance and the dielectric constant of the SiOCH samples, owing to reductions of surface charge density. we confirmed this result with derivative of C-V characteristic, leakage current density. The maximum capacitance and leakage current density were respectively decreased about 4 pF, 60% after annealing. The average of low-k value is approximatly 2.07 after annealing.

To investigate the effect of L-arginine as stabilizing agent for omeprazole, the degradation rate constant of omeprazole in aqueous solution was determined at 30, 40 and $50^{\circ}C$ with various ratios of L-arginine to omeprazole. The pH of omeprazole solutions was also determined. As the amount of L-arginine increased, the pH of omeprazole solution also increased, and the solution appeared to be more stable. The omeprazole in aqueous solution could be stabilized by more than 15:1 molar ratio of L-arginine to omeprazole. The stability of omeprazole in commercial products using L-arginine or sodium phosphate dibasic as stabilizing agent was investigated. Among the commercial products, the omeprazole product prepared with L-arginine (molar ratio of L-arginine to omeprazole, 20:1) was most stable.

In this study, in order to develop the composition ceramics for low loss and low temperature sintering multilayer piezoelectric actuator, PMN-PZN-PZT ceramics were fabricated using two stage calcination method and $Li_2CO_3$, $Bi_2O_3$ and CuO as sintering aids and their piezoelectric characteristics were investigated according to the 2nd calcination and sintering temperature. At the calcination temperature of $750^{\circ}C$ and sintering temperature of $930^{\circ}C$, density, electromechanical coupling factor ($k_p$), mechanical quality factor ($Q_m$), Dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) and piezoelectric constant ($d_{33}$) of specimen showed the optimum value of $7.94g/cm^2$ 0.581, 1554, 1555 and 356pC/N, respectively for multilayer piezoelectric actuator application.

Crystallographically {h00}-oriented $0.94(Bi_{0.5}Na_{0.5})TiO_{3}-0.06BaTiO_{3}$ (0.94BNT-0.06BT) ceramics was prepared by the Reactive Templated Grain Growth (RTGG) method using the $Bi_{4}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ template. The sheets prepared by tape-casting of slurries containing the templates and starting materials are cut, laminated, and pressed. Then burn-out and sintering was conducted. Also, to compare with the 0.94BNT-0.06BT ceramics prepared by the RTGG method another 0.94BNT-0.06BT ceramics was prepared by the solid-state method. In the optimum of this experiments range, the degree of orientation of the 0.94BNT-0.06BT ceramics prepared by the RTGG method was texture fraction${\approx}92%$ and the piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) and coupling factor($k_{p}$) was obtained to $d_{33}{\approx}205{\;}pC/N$, $k_{p}{\approx}0.33%$, respectively.

Formation of powders and electromechanical coupling factor of $Pb(Mn_{1/3} Sb_{2/3})_{0.08} Ti_{0.495}Zr_{0.425}O_3$ by hydro-thermal synthesis are described. The hydrothermal reactions each were accomplished at 12$0^{\circ}C$~25$0^{\circ}C$ for 5hours and sintering was accomplished at 1, .20$0^{\circ}C$ for 1hours. The PZT powders by hydrothermal synthesis were formed above 16$0^{\circ}C$ and the forms were cubic types. The ratio of grain size of sintered sample to powder was slowly decreased with the rising of hydrothermal reactino temperature but decreased rapidly above 22$0^{\circ}C$ Sintering density was decreased with the rising of hydrothermal reaction temperature above 16$0^{\circ}C$ but dielectric constant was increased. Electromechanical coupling factor $K_P$ was almost constant at 16$0^{\circ}C$~24$0^{\circ}C$ range and the value of $K_P$ was about 0.43-0.45.

ZnO was doped up to 0.3 wt% for improving the electrical properties of lead-free $[Li_{0.04}(Na_{0.44}Ko_{0.52})-(Nb_{0.86}\;Ta_{0.10}\;Sb_{0.04})]O_3$ piezoelectric ceramics. The ceramics were fabricated with the conventional sintering processes. Crystal structure of the samples was tetragonal phase regardless of ZnO amount. However, the piezoelectric properties were varied with the ZnO amount. The electro-mechanical coupling factor $(k_p)$ was with the ZnO amount up to 0.2 wt% but decreased with the further addition. the maximum value of $k_p$ was 0.475. Density, piezoelectric charge constant and relative dielectric constant was also showed maximum value at 0.2 wt%. The maximum values are $4.75g/cm^3$, 275 pC/N, 1403, respectively. In contrast, the mechanical quality factor $(Q_m)$ was not varied with increasing the ZnO addition up to 0.2 wt% but rapidly increased at 0.3 wt%.

We have investigated the Dielectric and Piezoelectric properties of $xPb(R_{1/2}Ta_{1/2})O_3-(1-x)Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ (R=Al,Y) solid solutions in which R ions are substituted for Al and Y ions. The maximum value of electromechanical coupling factor kp of 55% and 51% were obtained at the composition of 5mol% PAT and 5mol% PYT. However mechanical quality factor$(Q_m)$ had a minimum value of 44 and 69 at the composition of 5mol% PAT and 5mol% PYT. Also, the maximum value of piezoelectctric constant of $d_{33}(329[pC/N])$ and $d_{33}(310[pC/N])$ were obtained at the composition of 5mol% PAT and 5mol% PYT.
