A set of novel silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) devices' characteristics have been analyzed and verified under the electrostatic discharge (ESD) stress. A ring-shaped diffusion was added to their anode or cathode in order to improve the holding voltage (Vh) of SCR structure by creating new current discharging path and decreasing the emitter injection efficiency (${\gamma}$) of parasitic Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT). ESD current density distribution imitated by 2-dimensional (2D) TCAD simulation demonstrated that an additional current path exists in the proposed SCR. All the related devices were investigated and characterized based on transmission line pulse (TLP) test system in a standard $0.5-{\mu}m$ 24 V CDMOS process. The proposed SCR devices with ring-shaped anode (RASCR) and ring-shaped cathode (RCSCR) own higher Vh than that of Simple SCR (S_SCR). Especially, the Vh of RCSCR has been raised above 33 V. What's more, their holding current is kept over 800 mA, which makes it possible to design power clamp with SCR structure for on chip ESD protection and keep the protected chip away from latch-up risk.

In this paper, a Balun-BPF with the balun and BPF characteristics is proposed by using dual-mode ring resonator of $1{\lambda}$. We obtained the property of balun with the phase imbalance by symmetrically placing each output of ring resonator. The dual mode has been made by impedance difference between input and output lines. The fabricated Balun-BPF shows bandwidth of 40 MHz and insertion loss of 2.4 dB at a center frequency of 2.45 GHz. It shows the phase imbalance of $180{\sim}184$ degree and the magnitude imbalance of within 1 dB. The measured frequency responses agree well with simulated ones.

Cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) is a high-sensitive laser spectroscopic technique capable of measuring concentrations of trace gases. We have demonstrated a new design of the CRDS spectrometer with a continuous wave (CW) laser. The ring-dwon signal is produced through blocking the incident CW laser by scanning the cavity length fast toward off-resonance iwth PZT (piezoelectric transducer). We have also measured an absorption spectrum of acetylene overtone transitions near 570 nm at the pressure of 2700 Pa, and the minimum detectable absorption coefficient has been found to be about $3{\times}10^{-9}\cm^{-1}$.

그리드 환경은 원격의 이질적인 자원들을 서로 공유하며 상호 접근이 가능하도록 하여 사용자의 작업을 처리할 수 있는 메커니즘을 제공한다. 이때 그리드에 참여하는 각 노드들은 그리드에 자유롭게 참여 및 탈퇴가 가능하다는 점에서 P2P(Peer-to-Peer) 네트워크 구조와 유사하다. 또한 그리드 정보 서비스의 배치(deployment)와 특정한 자원 검색 서비스의 측면을 고려할 때 P2P 구조는 그리드 환경에서 유용하게 활용 될 수 있다. 따라서 그리드를 설계함에 있어 기존의 방법과는 달리 P2P 형식으로 그리드를 구성하는 것은 시스템의 확장성과 이에 따른 효율성을 개선하는 중요한 요소가 된다. 본 논문에서는 P2P 형식의 그리드를 구성하는데 필요한 계층형 Ring 기반의 멤버쉽 프로토콜을 제안한다. 계층형 Ring 기반의 멤버쉽 프로토콜은 제한된 네트워크 연결만을 가지게 되므로 멤버쉽을 위한 통신 비용을 감소 시킬 수 있게 되며, 각 노드에서 유지해야 하는 멤버쉽 정보들이 지역적인 정보들만을 대상으로 하기 때문에 멤버쉽 정보 유지에 따른 관리 비용 또한 감소하게 되는 장점을 갖게 된다.

Two different coverlayers which is useful for an optical buffer and a mechanical protection made of not only UV resin but also polycarbonate coversheet were prepared on small form factor optical disks. Thin coverlayer of 10 ${\mu}m$ and thick coverlayer of 80 ${\mu}m$ were fabricated. 10 ${\mu}m$-thick coverlayer was coated using UV resin material by spin coating method for the flying optical head application. On the other hand, 80 ${\mu}m$-thick coverlayer using coversheet with the resin bonding material was prepared for the non-flying optical head application. Both cases, the thickness uniformity seem to be the primary prerequisite factor, and it was analyzed. Thickness of 10 ${\mu}m$-thick UV resin coverlayer could be controlled within ${\pm}0.2m$ range and 80 ${\mu}m$-thick coversheet could be controlled within ${\pm}3{\mu}m$ range. However, the yield of such thickness tolerance was not good. New design of metal housing holder and polycarbonate outer ring was adopted to diminish the ski-jump phenomenon. Specifically, the polycarbonate outer ring was very effective to reduce the ski-jump. However, it should be careful to maintain uniform edge between disk and ring for the perfect coverlayer.

A new RF control system of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) storage ring is a subsystem upgraded PAL control system, which is based upon Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS). There are 5 control components, Low Level RF System (LRS), Klystron System, Circulator System, Cavity System, Local Cooling Water System (LCW) at the storage ring of PAL. The new RF control system for the storage ring has been under development for one years, first versions of individual VME (Versa Module Europa) Input/output modules under construction and system integration begun. In this system, VMEbus-based hardware is widely used for front-end controllers (FDS), Input/output controller (IOC). A number of Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and SUN workstations are also used for Operator Interfaces (OPI) in the control system. This paper describes the development VME I/O module to the new control system and how the design of this new system.

This paper proposes a low power frequency divider for an integrated CMOS phase-locked loop (PLL). An injection-locked frequency divider (ILFD) was designed, along with a current-mode logic (CML) frequency divider in order to obtain a broadband and high-frequency operation. A ring oscillator was designed to operate at 1.2 GHz, and the ILFD was used to divide the frequency of its input signal by two. The structure of the ILFD is similar to that of the ring oscillator in order to ensure the frequency alignment between the oscillator and the ILFD. The CML frequency divider was used as the second stage of the divider. The proposed frequency divider was applied in a conventional PLL design, using a 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process. Simulation shows that the proposed divide-by-two ILFD and the divide-by-eight CML frequency dividers operated as expected for an input frequency of 1.2 GHz, with a power consumption of 30 mW.

Generally, the dielectric constant and loss tangent are gotten by resonators. This paper presents analysis of the comparing the dielectric constant and loss tangent from the Ring, T and series gap structures. The T structure can be analyzed easily at wideband characteristic with simple design. the Ring can ignore the radiation loss from the open-ended effect. the Series gap can get more accurate permittivity than a Ring structure. The Used materials were dupont9599 LTCC ceramic and daeju0086 Ag.

The optimal design for stiffened laminate composite cylindrical shells under combined loads is studied by a nonlinear mathematical search algorithm. The optimal design is accomplished with the CONMIN. several types of buckling modes with maximum allowable stresses and strains are included as constraints in the optimal design process, such as general buckling, panel buckling with either stringers or rings smeared out, local skin buckling, local crippling of stiffener segments. Rectangular or T type stringers and rectangular rings are used for stiffened laminate composite cylindrical shells.
