Conventional single-phase series quasi Z-source voltage compensator can not compensate for voltage sag less than 50% that frequently occurs in the industrial field. In this study, single-phase series quasi Z-source voltage sag-swell compensator which can compensate the voltage variation of entire range is proposed. The proposed system is composed of two quasi Z-source AC-AC converters connected in series with output terminal stage. Voltage sag less than 50% could be compensated by the intersection switching control of the upper converter duty ratio and of the upper converter duty ratio. Also the compensation voltage and its flowchart for each compensation mode are presented for entire sag-swell region. To confirm the validity of the proposed system, a DSP(DSP28335) controlled experimental system was manufactured. As a result, the proposed system could compensate for the voltage sag/swell of 20% and 60%. Finally, voltage compensation factor and THD(Total Harmonic Distortion) according to voltage variation and load change were measured, and voltage quality shows a good results.

In this paper, novel test patterns and on-chip data are presented to indicate that the variation of coupling capacitance, ${\Delta}Cc$ by crosstalk can be larger than static coupling capacitance, Cc. It is also shown that ${\Delta}Cc$ is strongly dependent on the phase of aggressive lines. for anti-phase crosstalk ${\Delta}Cc$ is always larger than Cc while for in-phase crosstalk ${\Delta}Cc$ is smaller than Cc. HSPICE simulation shows good agreement with the measurement data.

A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the determination of diltiazem (DTZ) and its major metabolite, deacetyldiltiazem (DAD), in rat plasma. DTZ, DAD and imipramine, the internal standard, were selectively fractionated from plasma on a $C_{18}$ reversedphase column $({\mu}-Bondapak,\;10\;{\mu}m\;silica,\;300{\times}3.9\;mm\;ID)$. The composition of the mobile phase was methanol: acetonitrile: 0.04 M ammonium bromide: triethylamine (40:24:36:0.06 in volume). The pH of the mobile phase of their method was lowered to 6.4. The eluents from the column were detected for DTZ and DAD using a UV detector at 237 nm. The recovery was >85% for DTZ and DAD, and average intra-day and inter-day coefficients of variation were <6% for DTZ and DAD at the concentration ranges of 20-1000 ng/ml. Detection limit of DTZ and DAD in plasma was 20 ng/ml with signal-to-noise ratio of 3. This method would be applicable to practical pharmacokinetic studies without detriment to the HPLC column.

The purpose of this study is to materialize the viscosity sensor by using the SH-SAW sensor of which the center frequency is operated at higher than 50 MHz. In order to measure the viscosity, SAW sensor of which the center frequency is operated at 100 MHz is developed. By using the developed sensor, phase shift, delay time, insertion loss, and frequency variation are measured at different viscosity. The result shows that the phase shift difference between the viscosity variations is such that the difference between the distilled water and the 100 % glycerol solution is approximately $45^{\circ}$, the change of the insertion loss is approximately 9 dB, and the difference of frequency variation is approximately 5.9 MHz. Therefore, it is shown that viscosity of unknown solution can be measured with the surface acoustic wave sensor.

The main objective of this work is to experimentally investigate the effect of angle variation and intrusion depth of channels on the distribution of two-phase flow at header-channel junctions. The dimensions of the header and the channels in cross-section were fixed at $16mm{\times}16mm$ and $12mm{\times}1.8mm$, respectively. Air and water were used as the test fluids. Two different header-channel positions were tested : a vertical header with horizontal channels (case VM-HC) and a horizontal header with horizontal channels (case HM-HC). In all cases, the intrusion depths of the channels are 0 mm, 2 mm, and 4 mm. For the case of the intrusion depth of VM-HC, the flow distribution became more uniform. However, the intrusion depth negatively affected the flow distribution for the case of HM-HC because liquid separation delay occurred.

In this study, we discuss about the printed reflectarray antenna design for parabolic reflector volume reduction. For this, we simulated and measured the phase characteristics of the unit array element of reflectarray antenna using waveguide simulator. As a results, the maximum phase variation is $298^{\circ}$ by simulation, the average phase variation is $309^{\circ}$ by measurement in 10GHz. And the printed Reflectarray antenna gain is 28.3dBi, 3dB beamwidth is E-plane $5.1^{\circ}$, H-plane $5.2^{\circ}$, sidelobe level is E-plane -11.4dB, H-plane -17.6dB.

Sidewall angle (SWA) of an absorber stack in extreme ultraviolet lithography mask is considered to be $90^{\circ}$ ideally, however, it is difficult to obtain $90^{\circ}$ SWA because absorber profile is changed by complicated etching process. As the imaging performance of the mask can be varied with this SWA of the absorber stack, more complicated optical proximity correction is required to compensate for the variation of imaging performance. In this study, phase shift mask (PSM) is suggested to reduce the variation of imaging performance due to SWA change by modifying mask material and structure. Variations of imaging performance and lithography process margin depending on SWA were evaluated through aerial image and developed resist simulations to confirm the advantages of PSM over the binary intensity mask (BIM). The results show that the variations of normalized image log slope and critical dimension bias depending on SWA are reduced with PSM compared to BIM. Process margin for exposure dose and focus was also improved with PSM.

The relationship between Mg II emission line and light variation of V711 Tau has been derived to investigate the chromospheric activity on V711 Tau. First, a shape of an optical light curve was compared with that of ultraviolet constructed from the IUE low resolution spectra. Second, the intensities of Mg II k emission lines have been reduced from IUE high resolution spectra. The intensity of Mg II k line was compared with brightness of the UV light curve at given phase. The Mg II line intensity is maximum at the phase $O.^{P}4$ where the light is minimum. The evidence of chromosperic activity is indicated by the intensity variation of the MgII emission line with orbital phase for V711 Tau.

The effect of pH variation in starting solution on the characteristics of hydroxyapatite precipitates and powder prepared by the wet method was investigated. Hydroxyapatite precipitates was agglomerated, the average agglomerated particle size was decreased in the range from 2 to 6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with increasing pH values in starting solution. The aspect ratio of rod-shaped hydroxyapatite particle was rapidly increased at pH 11 and 11.5. The maximum specific surface area, 91.1$m^2$/g, was at pH 10.5. Dried powder prepared at high pH values contained more minutes CO2 than that prepared at low pH values. The poor crystallinity was maintained up to $600^{\circ}C$ regardless of the pH values in starting solutions. However, the second phase or high crsytalline hydroxypatite phase appeared above 80$0^{\circ}C$. In pH 9.5 and pH 10, $\beta$-whitlockite transformed to $\alpha$-whitlockite at 120$0^{\circ}C$, while in pH 10.5-11.5, hydroxyapatite phase was maintained up to 120$0^{\circ}C$.

The purposed of this work was to determine nanotube shape variation on the Ti-xNb alloys with alloying elements and applied potentials. Samples were prepared by arc melting, followed by followed by homogenization for 12 hr at $1000^{\circ}C$ in argon atmosphere. This study was evaluated the phase and microstructure of Ti-xNb alloys using an X-ray diffraction (XRD) and optical microscopy (OM). The morphology of the samples was investigated with a field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The nanotube on the alloy surface was formed in 1 M $H_3PO_4$ with small additions of NaF 0.8 wt.%. All anodization treatments were carried out using a scanning potentiostat (Model 362, EG&G, USA) at constant voltage 30 V for 120 min, respectively. The morphology of the samples was investigated with a field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Surface characteristics of nanotbue formed on Ti-xNb alloys was investigated by potentiodynamic test and potentiostatic in 0.9% NaCl solution at $36.5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. It was observed that the changed ${\alpha}$ phase to ${\beta}$ phase with Nb content.
