  • 인쇄회로기판(PCB)은 전자 제품 생산에 널리 적용되는 요소부품으로 지속적으로 양적인 성장은 물론 집적도와 같은 질적인 발전도 묵과할 수 없다. 제조현장에서 보편적으로 웨이브 솔더링 장비가 사용되고 있으나 선행 연구 및 시제품 개발 단계에서는 각 PCB 제원에 맞는 전용 장비 환경을 구성할 수 없고, 범용의 고정 장비 환경에서 정해진 시간 내에 장비의 설정 조건만 변경하여 다양한 제품 군을 생산할 수밖에 없는 것이 일반적이다. 본 연구에서는 위와 같이 제한된 환경 내에서 최적의 공정 조건을 선택할 수 있도록 PCB 팔레트 도입 사례를 소개한다. 또한 현재 범용 장비에서 생산 가능 여부를 미리 판단할 수 있는 판별식을 제시하여 범용 웨이브 솔더링 장비 환경의 한계로 인해 발생할 수 있는 문제점을 사전에 파악하고 대응하도록 하고 궁극적으로 개발기간 단축 및 생산성 향상을 기대할 수 있도록 한다.

  • Until Mandelbrot introduced the concept of fractal geometry and fractal dimension in early 1970s, it has been generally considered that the geometry of nature should be too complex and irregular to describe analytically or mathematically. Here fractal dimension indicates a non-integer number such as 0.5, 1.5, or 2.5 instead of only integers used in the traditional Euclidean geometry, i.e., 0 for point, 1 for line, 2 for area, and 3 for volume. Since his pioneering work on fractal geometry, the geometry of nature has been found fractal. Mandelbrot introduced the concept of fractal geometry. For example, fractal geometry has been found in mountains, coastlines, clouds, lightning, earthquakes, turbulence, trees and plants. Even human organs are found to be fractal. This suggests that the fractal geometry should be the law for Nature rather than the exception. Fractal geometry has a hierarchical structure consisting of the elements having the same shape, but the different sizes from the largest to the smallest. Thus, fractal geometry can be characterized by the similarity and hierarchical structure. A process requires driving energy to proceed. Otherwise, the process would stop. A hierarchical structure is considered ideal to generate such driving force. This explains why natural process or phenomena such as lightning, thunderstorm, earth quakes, and turbulence has fractal geometry. It would not be surprising to find that even the human organs such as the brain, the lung, and the circulatory system have fractal geometry. Until now, a normal frequency distribution (or Gaussian frequency distribution) has been commonly used to describe frequencies of an object. However, a log-normal frequency distribution has been most frequently found in natural phenomena and chemical processes such as corrosion and coagulation. It can be mathematically shown that if an object has a log-normal frequency distribution, it has fractal geometry. In other words, these two go hand in hand. Lastly, applying fractal principles is discussed, focusing on pulp and paper industry. The principles should be applicable to characterizing surface roughness, particle size distributions, and formation. They should be also applicable to wet-end chemistry for ideal mixing, felt and fabric design for papermaking process, dewatering, drying, creping, and post-converting such as laminating, embossing, and printing.

  • 본 논문은 자동 로봇 용접을 위한 Hand-Eye 레이저 거리 측정기 기반 용접 평면 인식 기법을 제안한다. 로봇 용접은 대상체의 형상에 의해 미리 정의된 용접선을 따라 금속 대상체를 용접 평면에 접합하는 과정이다. 따라서 성공적인 로봇 용접을 위해서는 용접 평면의 위치와 방향을 정확히 검출해야 한다. 만약 평면의 위치와 방향을 정확히 검출하지 못한다면 자동 로봇 용접은 실패하게 된다. 정밀한 용접 평면 인식을 위해 레이저 거리 측정기를 이용해 평면상의 직선을 검출한다. 레이저 거리측정기에 의한 직선 검출을 위해 Hough 변환을 적용한다. Hough 변환은 투표 방법을 기반으로 하기 때문에 센서의 측정 오차를 줄일 수 있다. 이 때 레이저 거리 측정기가 부착된 로봇 관절을 회전시켜 평면상의 두 개의 직선을 검출한 후 두 직선의 방향 벡터에 외적을 취해 평면의 방향을 인식한다. 제안된 방법의 실효성을 검증하기 위해 Simlab사에서 개발한 로봇 시뮬레이터인 RoboticsLab을 이용해 시뮬레이션을 수행한다.

  • In the era of 20 nm scaled semiconductor volume manufacturing, Microelectronics Manufacturing Engineering Education is presented in this paper. The purpose of microelectronic engineering education is to educate engineers to work in the semiconductor industry; it is therefore should be considered even before than technology development. Three Microelectronics Manufacturing Engineering related courses are introduced, and how undergraduate students acquired hands-on experience on Microelectronics fabrication and manufacturing. Conventionally employed wire bonding was recognized as not only an additional parasitic source in high-frequency mobile applications due to the increased inductance caused from the wiring loop, but also a huddle for minimizing IC packaging footprint. To alleviate the concerns, chip bumping technologies such as flip chip bumping and pillar bumping have been suggested as promising chip assembly methods to provide high-density interconnects and lower signal propagation delay [1,2]. Aluminum as metal interconnecting material over the decades in integrated circuits (ICs) manufacturing has been rapidly replaced with copper in majority IC products. A single copper metal layer with various test patterns of lines and vias and $400{\mu}m$ by $400{\mu}m$ interconnected pads are formed. Mask M1 allows metal interconnection patterns on 4" wafers with AZ1512 positive tone photoresist, and Cu/TiN/Ti layers are wet etched in two steps. We employed WPR, a thick patternable negative photoresist, manufactured by JSR Corp., which is specifically developed as dielectric material for multi- chip packaging (MCP) and package-on-package (PoP). Spin-coating at 1,000 rpm, i-line UV exposure, and 1 hour curing at $110^{\circ}C$ allows about $25{\mu}m$ thick passivation layer before performing wafer level soldering. Conventional Si3N4 passivation between Cu and WPR layer using plasma CVD can be an optional. To practice the board level flip chip assembly, individual students draw their own fan-outs of 40 rectangle pads using Eagle CAD, a free PCB artwork EDA. Individuals then transfer the test circuitry on a blank CCFL board followed by Cu etching and solder mask processes. Negative dry film resist (DFR), Accimage$^{(R)}$, manufactured by Kolon Industries, Inc., was used for solder resist for ball grid array (BGA). We demonstrated how Microelectronics Manufacturing Engineering education has been performed by presenting brief intermediate by-product from undergraduate and graduate students. Microelectronics Manufacturing Engineering, once again, is to educating engineers to actively work in the area of semiconductor manufacturing. Through one semester senior level hands-on laboratory course, participating students will have clearer understanding on microelectronics manufacturing and realized the importance of manufacturing yield in practice.

  • Aesthetics of use for modern people can be regarded as being weighted toward universal and rational function since it has focused on an 'automation and efficiency' and 'smartness' in terms of technological and human engineering position. Thus, aesthetics of use as an individual agent has remained in minimal level. This study attempts to seek conceptual model of design regarding the behavior of users from the systematization of critical theories about the usability. To do that, 'HERTZAIN TALES' written by Anthony Dune and the concept and system of Droog Design have been used as a core standard. In line with the various experiments by artist groups such as Fluxus, Memphis group and the work of product semantics, and inherent characteristics of Droog design, which has surfaced from the 1990s, concepts that has mentioned in the Hertzain tales have been organized into main texts. By overcoming cognitive bias inherent in the material culture and by overcoming an existing usability based on immateriality and dialectic solution, the autonomy of critical design and instrumentality of Droog design have been systemized. By interpreting the design aspect of 12 pieces that have been submitted to the RE;MIND section, the core of this study, it has been confirmed that conceptual and critical design's aesthetics of use From the interpretation of the design aspect of 12 pieces that have been submitted to the RE;MIND section, the core of this study, it has been confirmed that conceptual and critical design's aesthetics of use has established the autonomy and independence of the behavior of users, created functional articulation of materials and secured new conceptual model and thus, could be an effective methodical clue for creating an emergent design.

  • Background: Panax ginseng is a marvelous herbal remedy for all ailments of body. That may be why it is called Panax, which means "cure for all". Melanin is a pigment that gives color to our skin; however, increased melanin production can lead to tumor formation. Human exposure to ultraviolet B radiation has increased extensively owing to the increased sunlight due to global warming. Consequently, a phenomenon called photoaging has been observed for all skin colors and types. As a result of this phenomenon, a set of enzymes called matrix metalloproteinases, which serve as degradation enzymes for extracellular matrix proteins, mainly collagen, is increased, causing depletion of collagen and resulting in early wrinkle formation. Methods: Therefore, in our study, we used the murine melanoma cell line B16/F10 to study the inhibition of melanogenesis by Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) extract in vitro and HRM-2 hairless mice exposed to artificial ultraviolet B to examine the efficacy of KRG in vivo. We prepared a 3% red ginseng extract cream and evaluated its effects on human skin. Results: Our results demonstrated that KRG induced potent suppression of tyrosinase activity and melanin production in B16/F10 cells; moreover, it reduced the transcription and translation of components involved in the melanin production pathway. In the in vivo experiments, KRG potently suppressed the expression of matrix metalloproteinases, reduced wrinkle formation, and inhibited collagen degradation. On human skin, ginseng cream increased skin resilience and skin moisture and enhanced skin tone. Conclusion: Therefore, we conclude that KRG is an excellent skin whitening and antiaging product.

  • Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a cytokine secreted by stromal cells and plays a role in the differentiation of bone marrow stem cells and proliferation of neutrophils. Therefore, G-CSF is widely used to reduce the risk of serious infection in immunocompromised patients; however, its use in such patients is limited because of its non-persistent biological activity. We created an N-linked glycosylated form of this cytokine, hG-CSF (Phe140Asn), to assess its biological activity in the promyelocyte cell line HL60. Enhanced biological effects were identified by analyzing the JAK2/STAT3/survivin pathway in HL60 cells. In addition, mutant hG-CSF (Phe140Asn) was observed to have enhanced chemoattractant effects and improved differentiation efficiency in HL60 cells. These results suggest that the addition of N-linked glycosylation was successful in improving the biological activity of hG-CSF. Furthermore, the mutated product appears to be a feasible therapy for patients with neutropenia.

  • PCB(Printed Circuit Board) 제조공정에서의 수율은 제품의 원가와 품질을 결정하는 중요한 관리 요인이다. PCB 제조공정은 일반적으로 많은 단계의 미세공정을 거쳐서 제품인 칩(Chip)이 생산되기 때문에 높은 수율을 보장하기가 현실적으로 어렵다. 제품의 수율을 향상시키기 위해서는 저수율의 원인이 되는 불량요인을 분석하고, 불량요인에 영향을 미치는 중요공정 및 설비를 찾아서 관리해야 한다. 본 연구는 로지스틱 회귀분석 및 변수선택법을 이용하여 혐의공정 및 설비를 찾는 방법을 제안하였다. 데이터는 실제 현장의 로트 데이터를 사용하였고, 각 로트는 진행한 설비 및 불량유형별 불량수를 갖고 있다. 또한 분석 결과는 실제 현장 확인을 통하여 수율에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다.

  • Hamamelis japonica (Hamamelidaceae), widely known as Japanese witch hazel, is a deciduous flowering shrub that produces compact clumps of yellow or orange-red flowers with long and thin petals. As a part of our ongoing search for phenolic constituents from this plant, eleven phenolic constituents including six flavonol glycosides, a chalcone glycoside, two coumaroyl flavonol glycosides and two galloylated compounds were isolated from the flowers. Their structures were elucidated as methyl gallate (1), myricitrin (2), hyperoside (3), isoquercitrin (4), quercitrin (5), spiraeoside (6), kaempferol 4'-O-β-glucopyranoside (7), chalcononaringenin 2'-O-β-glucopyranoside (8), trans-tiliroside (9), cis-tiliroside (10), and pentagalloyl-O-β-D-glucose (11), respectively. These structures of the compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic studies including the on-line LCNMR-MS and conventional NMR techniques. Particularly, directly coupled LC-NMR-MS afforded sufficient structural information rapidly to identify three flavonol glycosides (2 - 4) with the same molecular weight in an extract of Hamamelis japonica flowers without laborious fractionation and purification step. Cytotoxic effects of all the isolated phenolic compounds were evaluated on HCT116 human colon cancer cells, and pentagalloyl-O-β-D-glucose (11) was found to be significantly potent in inhibiting cancer cell growth.

  • 프레스 공정은 제품의 대량 생산에 주로 사용되며, 제품의 생산관리를 위해 공정 중 발생하는 제품 결함 탐지는 중요하다. 결함 탐지를 위해 검출자의 육안을 통한 검출 방법이 주로 사용되고 있으나, 이 방법은 검출자에 따라 정확도 및 효율이 크게 좌우된다. 따라서 검출자의 영향을 받지 않고 일정 이상의 검출 능력을 갖춘 자동검출시스템이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 프레스 라인의 영상촬영시스템을 활용하여 공정 중 패널이미지를 획득 및 패널 결함검출기법을 개발하였다. 결함이 없는 제품이미지를 기저이미지로 선정한 뒤, 이미지 내 외곽라인 요소들에 대한 히스토그램을 이용하여 결함이 존재하는 패널이미지와 비교를 통해 결함검출을 수행하였다. 또한 실험실 및 실제 프레스 라인 실험을 통하여 신뢰성을 확인하였다. 실험 결과 프레스 공정 중 생기는 패널의 크랙결함에 대한 탐지가 가능하였으며 추후 이미지 처리의 가속화 및 최적화 진행 시, 검출률 및 검출 속도 향상시 현장 적용 가능함을 확인하였다.
