This paper examined the existance behavior of charged particles by measuring polarity inversion current Thermal Stimulate Current (TSC) and analysed appearance mechanism of polarity inversion current Peak and Also investigated relation between ionic space charge format ion and dielectric breakdown by measuring D.C breakdown impulse breakdown D.C - impulse superposition as a sample of FET. As a result. lie found that dielectric breakdown is likely to happen due to ionic space charge at the transient state when applied polarity inversion voltage and that charged partion of TSE Peak at the high temperature was the same as that of polarity inversion current. Also there was no effect on ionic space charge about the dielectric breakdown in stationary state when applied D.C voltage.

The general method and mechanism for the polarity control of heteroepitaxial wurtzite films, such as ZnO and GaN, by interface engineering via plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy are addressed. We proposed the principle and method controlling the crystal polarity of ZnO on GaN and GaN on ZnO. The crystal polarity of the lower film was maintained by forming a heterointerfce without any interface layer between the upper and the lower layers. However the crystal polarity could be changed by forming the heterointerface with the interface layer having an inversion center. The principle and method suggested here give us a promising tool to fabricate polarity inverted heterostructures, which applicable to invent novel heterostructures and devices.

This paper reports a characteristic motion of a polarity inversion line (PIL) formed at the solar surface, which is newly found by performing a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulation of flux emergence in the Sun. A magnetic flux tube composed of twisted field lines is assumed to emerge below the surface, forming a bipolar region with a PIL at the surface. A key finding is the successive half-turn rotation of the PIL, leading to the formation of a quadrupolar-like region at the surface and a magnetic configuration in the corona; this configuration is reminiscent of, but essentially different from the so-called inverse-polarity configuration of a filament magnetic field. We discuss a physical mechanism for producing the half-turn rotation of a PIL, which gives new insights into the magnetic structure formed via flux emergence. This presents a reasonable explanation of the configuration of a filament magnetic field suggested by observations.

태양 광구표면에서 시선방향 자기장 자료를 살펴보면 그 극성이 변하는 지점들이 선의 형태로 보이는데 이것을 Magnetic Polarity Inversion Line(MPIL) 혹은 Neutral Line이라 부른다. 기존의 연구에 의하면 태양활동영역에서 MPIL의 길이가 길수록 플레어 및 코로나물질방출(CME)과 같은 큰 규모의 분출현상들이 일어나는 빈도가 높다는 사실이 보고된 바 있다. 이런 점에서 볼 때 MPIL이 우주환경 예보의 측면에서 중요한 도구가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 하지만 여전히 MPIL의 기하학적, 물리적 특성 및 그 형성과 진화과정에 대한 이해가 부족한 상황이다. 우리는 본 연구에서 SOHO/MDI 시선방향 자기장 자료를 사용하여 태양활동 23주기에 나타난 308개의 태양활동영역에 대하여 MPIL의 길이, 곡률과 같은 기하학적인 특성을 연구하였고, 또한 MPIL주변의 자기장(평균 자기선속, 총 자기선속 등) 및 magnetic fragment들의 속도장(평균속력, 수렴 및 발산정도, vorticity 등)과 같은 물리적인 특성에 대한 통계적 조사를 수행하였다.

Periodically polarity inverted (PPI) ZnO structures on (0001) Al2O3 substrates are demonstrated by plasmas assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The patterning and re-growth methods are used to realize the PPI ZnO by employing the polarity controlling method. For the in-situ polarity controlling of ZnO films, Cr-compound buffer layers are used.[1, 2] The region with the CrN intermediate layer and the region with the Cr2O3 and Al2O3 substrate were used to grow the Zn- and O-polar ZnO films, respectively. The growth behaviors with anisotropic properties of PPI ZnO heterostructures are investigated. The periodical polarity inversion is evaluated by contrast images of piezo-response microscopy. Structural and optical interface properties of PPI ZnO are investigated by the transmission electron microcopy (TEM) and micro photoluminescence ($\mu$-PL). The inversion domain boundaries (IDBs) between the Zn and the O-polar ZnO regions were clearly observed by TEM. Moreover, the investigation of spatially resolved local photoluminescence characteristics of PPI ZnO revealed stronger excitonic emission at the interfacial region with the IDBs compared to the Zn-polar or the O-polar ZnO region. The possible mechanisms will be discussed with the consideration of the atomic configuration, carrier life time, and geometrical effects. The successful realization of PPI structures with nanometer scale period indicates the possibility for the application to the photonic band-gap structures or waveguide fabrication. The details of application and results will be discussed.

A 15.4" WXGA TFT-LCD, featuring integrated a-Si:H gate driver circuits and reduced data driver ICs, has been developed. To reduce number of data lines into 1/2 of conventional structure, the pixel array has been re-mapped with re-organized data signal. Unintended artificial effects such as flicker were removed by adopting the novel pixel array having a 'zigzag' map. To minimize the power consumption, a column inversion method was incorporated in the zigzag pixel array (Fig.1) without modifying the polarity map of conventional dot inversion method.

Theoretically, the magnetic helicity transport flux through the solar surface into the upper atmosphere can be estimated indefinitely precisely by magnetic field footpoint tracking if the observational resolution is infinitely fine, even with magnetic flux emergence or submergence. In reality, the temporal and spatial resolutions of observations are limited. When magnetic flux emerging or submerging, the footpoint velocity goes to infinity and the normal magnetic field vanishes at the polarity inversion line. A finite observational resolution thus generates a blackout area in helicity flux estimation near the polarity inversion line. It is questioned how much magnetic helicity is underestimated with a footpoint tracking method due to the absence of information in the blackout area. We adopt the analytical models of Gold-Hoyle and Lundquist force-free flux ropes and let them emerging from below the solar surface. The observation and the helicity integration can start at different emerging stages of the flux rope, i.e., the photospheric plane initially cuts the flux rope at different levels. We calculate the magnetic helicity of the flux rope below the photospheric level, which is eventually to emerge, except the helicity hidden in the region to be swept by the blackout area with different widths. Our calculation suggests that the error in the integrated helicity flux estimate is about half of the real value or even larger when small scale magnetic structures emerge into the solar atmosphere.

We have prepared an amphiphilic wedge-coil molecule consisting of a hydrophobic wedge-like segment and a hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) segment. The wedge-coil block molecule self-assembles into cylindrical nanofibers in both polar as well as nonpolar solvents. Remarkably, the resulting nanofibers, as solvent polarity change from water to n-hexane, change from highly flexible coil-like to stiff rod-like characteristics. This dynamic switching in the stiffness of the nanofibers in response to solvent polarity is attributed to the structural inversion of cylindrical core from bulky dendritic segments with amorphous nature to crystallizable linear PEO segments.
