The effects of electrical positive stress on n-channel LDD and offset structured poly-Si TFT\`s have been systematically investigated in order to analyze the transfer curve\`s shift mechanism. It has been found that the LDD and offset regions behave as a series resistance that reduce the electric field near drain. Hot carrier effects are reduced because of these results. After electrical stress transfer curve’s shift and variation of the off-current are dependent upon the offset length rather than offset region’s doping concentration. Variation of the subthreshold slope is dependent upon offset region’s doping concentration as well as offset length.

Al-doped p-type ZnO films were fabricated on n-Si (100) and homo-buffer layers in pure oxygen at $450^{\circ}C$ by RF magnetron sputtering. Target was ZnO ceramic mixed with 2wt% $Al_2O_3$. XRD spectra show that the Al-doped ZnO thin films have ZnO crystal structure and homo-buffer layers are beneficial to Al-doped ZnO films to grow along c-axis. Hall Effect experiments with Van der Pauw configuration show that p-type carrier concentrations are ranged from $1.66{\times}10^{16}\;to\;4.04{\times}10^{18}cm^{-3}$, mobilities from 0.194 to $2.3cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ and resistivities from 7.97 to $18.4{\Omega}cm$. P-type sample has density of $5.40cm^{-3}$ which is smaller than theoretically calculated value of $5.67cm^{-3}$. XPS spectra show that O1s has O-O and Zn-O structures and A12p has only Al-O structure. P-ZnO:Al/n-ZnO:Al junctions were fabricated by magnetron sputtering. V-I curves show that the p-n junctions have rectifying characteristics.

Fast-time instability is investigated for diffusion flames with Lewis numbers greater than unity by employing the numerical technique called the Evans function method. Since the time and length scales are those of the inner reactive-diffusive layer, the problem is equivalent to the instability problem for the $Li\tilde{n}\acute{a}n#s$ diffusion flame regime. The instability is primarily oscillatory, as seen from complex solution branches and can emerge prior to reaching the upper turning point of the S-curve, known as the $Li\tilde{n}\acute{a}n#s$ extinction condition. Depending on the Lewis number, the instability characteristics is found to be somewhat different. Below the critical Lewis number, $L_C$, the instability possesses primarily a pulsating nature in that the two real solution branches, existing for small wave numbers, merges at a finite wave number, at which a pair of complex conjugate solution branches bifurcate. For Lewis numbers greater than $L_C$, the solution branch for small reactant leakage is found to be purely complex with the maximum growth rate found at a finite wave number, thereby exhibiting a traveling nature. As the reactant leakage parameter is further increased, the instability characteristics turns into a pulsating type, similar to that for L < $L_C$.

To evaluate the fatigue lives of welded joints taking into residual stress relaxation, two approaches are applied. One is based on the conventional local strain analyses. The other is based on a model developed by the authors. In the first approach, the Ramberg-Osgood relation, Lawrence model and S.W.T. parameter are used. In the second approach, The S-N curve for a welded joint is deduced from that of the parent material. Residual stress relaxation obtained by finite element analysis is considered. Finally, we evaluate the fatigue lives for four weld details using the two approaches.

In this paper, we design and implement an efficient fair off-line electronic cash system based on Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem (ECDLP), in which the anonymity of coins is revocable by a trustee in case of dispute. To achieve this, we employ the Petersen and Poupard s electronic cash system [1] and extend it by using an elliptic curve over the finite field GF($2^n$). This naturally reduces message size by 85% compared with the original scheme and makes a smart card to store coins easily. Furthermore, we use the Baek et al. s provably secure public key encryption scheme [2] to improve the security of electronic cash system. As an extension, we propose a method to add atomicity into new electronic cash system. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result to implement a fair off-line electronic cash system based on ECDLP with provable security.

(VATS) lobectomy to junior surgeons, and to review the first year experience of a new surgeon performing VATS lobectomies who had not performed a VATS lobectomy unassisted during his training period. Materials and Methods: A young surgeon opened a division of general thoracic surgery at a medical institution. The surgeon had performed about 100 lobectomies via conventional thoracotomy during his training period, but had never performed a VATS lobectomy unassisted while under the supervision of an expert. After opening the division of general thoracic surgery, the surgeon performed a total of 38 pulmonary lobectomies for various pulmonary diseases from March 2009 to February 2010. All data were collected retrospectively. Results: There were 14 lobectomies via thoracotomy, 14 VATS lobectomies, and 10 cases of attempted VATS lobectomies that were converted to open thoracotomies. The number of VATS lobectomies increased from the second quarter (n=0) to the third quarter (n=5). The lobectomies that were converted from VATS into thoracotomies decreased from the second quarter (n=5) to the third quarter (n=1) (p=0.002). Conclusion: It can take 6 months for young surgeons without experience in VATS lobectomy in their training period to be able to reliably perform a VATS lobectomy.

In [3], J. H. Cheon and S. T Chee proposed a method to generate boolean functions with good properties using a poly-nomials of degree 3 over a finite field $F_{2n}$. In this paper, we propose a method generating resilient functions with high nonlinearity from polynomials of degree 5 over a finite field $F_$2^n$$(n$\leq$14).

In this paper, we present a frequency tunable and compact antenna which consists of a first-order Peano curve, two shorting posts, and two inductors which are serially connected between the posts and the edge of the Peano curve. By properly choosing the inductance of two inductors, the operating frequency of the antenna can be controlled without sacrificing the fractional bandwidth. To give good demonstration of the operating mechanism, the equivalent circuit of this antenna is included. To validate the simulation results, we have fabricated the several antennas of being integrated with different inductors, and the measured results show a good agreement with the simulated ones. The measured results reveal that the operating frequency is shifted from 1.47 GHz to 0.586 GHz without the decrease of the input impedance bandwidth. In case of integrating two inductors of 91nH and 470nH, the electric size of the antenna is only $0.0246 {\lambda}{\times}0.0246{\lambda}{\times}0.0114{\lambda}$. The measured fractional bandwidth$(S_{11}{\leq}-10 dB)$ and the radiation efficiency of the antenna are 5.22% and 47.25%, respectively.

As concrete structures are getting larger, higher, longer, and specialized, it is more required to develop steel fiber concrete and apply to the real world. In this research, it is aimed to have fatigue strength examined, varying the steel fiber content by 0%, 0.75%, 1.00%, 1.25%, by experimental study of Two-spans Beam with Steel Fibrous with repeated loads. The ultimate load and the initial load of flexural cracking were measured by static test. In addition, the load versus strain relation, load versus strain relation, load versus deflection relation, crack pattern and fracture mode by increasing weight was observed. On the other hand, the crack propagation and the modes of fracture according to cycle number and the relation of cycle loading to deflection relation and strain relation was observed by fatigue test. As the result of fatigue test, Two-spans Beam without Steel Fibrous was failed at 60~70% of the static ultimate strength and it could be concluded that fatigue strength to two million cycle was around 67.2% by S-N curve. On the other hand, that with Steel Fibrous was failed at 65~85% of the static ultimate strength and it could be concluded fatigue strength to two million cycle around 71.7%.
