In this paper the electron mobility in $Ga{1-X}In_xAs$alloy semiconductors is simulated by using the ensemble Monte Carlo method. The simulations for Ga\ulcornerIn\ulcornerAs with In mole fraction, doping concentration and temperature as parameters are performed. The electron mobility for alloys which perfectly orderd alloys without the alloy scattering mechanism are assumed, the results show that mobility in Ga\ulcornerIn\ulcornerAs is improved by 11%, 12% and 7% for 0.25, 0.53 and 0.75. In mole fractions, respectively, We reported the theoretical results of electron mobility in $Ga{1-X}In_xAs$alloys, so those will contribute to the research and development into materials for high-speed semiconductor devices.

Problems of overlap errors and side-lobe printing by the design rule reduction in the lithography process using attenuated phase-shifting masks(attPSM) have been serious. Overlap errors and side-lobes can be simultaneously solved by the rule-based correction using scattering bars with the rules extracted from test patterns. Process parameters affecting the attPSM lithography simulation have been determined by the fitting method to the process data. Overlap errors have been solved applying the correction rules to the metal patterns overlapped with contact/via. Moreover, the optimal insertion rule of the scattering bars has made it possible to suppress the side-lobes and to get additional pattern fidelity at the same time.

Natural convection and radiation heat transfer in a square enclosure containing absorbing, emitting, and isotopically scattering(participating) media is studied numerically using the finite volume method. Various numerical methods are employed to analyze the radiative heat transfer. However, it is very difficult to choose the proper method. In present study, a finite volume method(FVM) and a discrete ordinates method(DOM) are compared in rectangular enclosure. The SIMPLER algorithm is used to solve the momentum and energy equations. Thermal and flow characteristics are investigated according to the variation of radiation parameters such as optical thickness and scattering albedo. The result shows that the accuracy and the computing time of FVM are better than those of DOM in regular geometry.

For an efficient calculation of scattering matrix of planar transmission line with step discontinuity. Mode Matching Method combined with Vector Finite Element Method is adopted. Calculating effective widths are replaced with their respective equivalent planar waveguide corresponding to the microstrip width, Propagation Constant is calculated from the Vector finite element. Mode matching method is used for deriving scattering parameters.

Scattering of seeds is one of the problems in the hill- dropping planters with a roller-type metering device. For crops like rice, corns and beans, the hill-dropping is own better for a high yield than the drill planting. The roller type metering device has been used for the drill planters and has many advantages. However, it has a problem of scattering of seeds when they are placed on rows. In this study a method was developed to design the roller type metering device fir the precision hill-droppings. Design parameters were derived to configure completely the geometries of the roller and brush. The method was applied to the design of the metering device of the rice seeding machines. The field test showed that the metering device designed by the method made a better performance of seed placement than that made by the precvious one. The method also can be applied to the design of metering devices for the precise hill-droppings of other crops.

X-ray photoelectron diffraction (XPD) is used to characterize the crystallographically cleaved GaAs(110) surface. By using polar and azimuthal scans of the usual angle-resolved x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we get the reconstruction geometry of the clean GaAs(110) surface from the intensity ratio of Ga 3d core-level peaks. The reconstruction parameters are determined by fitting the diffraction pattern with the single scattering cluster (SSC) model, and the results show similar tendencies to those obtained by other techniques.

This paper suggested the fast and easy method of the dielectric constant measurement for planar dielectrics using a microstrip line. The complex permittivity and permeability were presented by the first reflection and transmission coefficient which were derived from the scattering parameters. This method was verified by the measurement of a known planar dielectric using a microstrip line. This method can be applied to the dielectric constant measurement of unknown planar dielectric.

Design of wireless link in Ka and mm-wave bands is critically affected by rain attenuation. In this paper, we compared and analyzed the main distributions of rain drop size to estimate the rain attenuation which can be used in domestic environment. Mie scattering theory was checked to agree with Rayleigh theory in its low frequency limit and agree with optical scattering theory in its high frequency limit. We intended to provide more specific criteria to estimate rain attenuation with a generalized approach.

This study was carried out to monitor the visibility including measurement and analysis of the various parameters such as particle size distribution, chemical composition, and meteorotical conditions to understand the characteristics and causes of this phenomenon. According to the analysis of intensive sampling, $SO_4^{2-}, NO-3^-, Cl^-, NH_4^+$ ion concentration increased together with the mass concentration around 1 $\mu$m in the case of low visibility. $(NH_4)_2SO_4, NH_4NO_3$, and $NH_4Cl$ were thought to be the major components of fine particles. The statistical analysis showed that the scattering effect of particle was 81.2%, the absorption effect was 14.9%. Therefore, these effects were the major factors to reduce the visibility. In conclusion, the visibility was reduced by the fine particle of sulfate (18.6%), nitrate (14.2%), organic carbon (10.8%), element carbon (25.8%), and residual (24.8%) during this study.

Methodologies to improve photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) are reviewed. DSSC is usually composed of a dye-adsorbed $TiO_2$ photoanode, a tri-iodide/iodide redox electrolyte and a Pt counter electrode. Among the photovoltaic parameters of short-circuit photocurrent density, open-circuit voltage and fill factor, short-circuit photocurrent density is the collective measure of light harvesting, charge separation and charge collection efficiencies. Internal quantum efficiency is known to reach almost 100%, which indicates that charge separation occurs without loss by recombination. Thus, light harvesting efficiency plays an important role in improvement of photocurrent. In this paper, technologies to improve light harvesting efficiency, including surface area improvement by nano-dispersion, size-dependent light scattering efficiency, bi-functional nano material, panchromatic absorption by selective positioning of three different dyes and transparent conductive oxide (TCO)-less DSSC, are introduced.
