  • We have studied the dependence of current-voltage characteristics of Organic Light Emitting Diodes(OLEDs) on temperature-dependent variation. The OLEDs have been based on the molecular compounds. N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1, 1'- biphenyl-4, 4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole transport. tris(8-hydroxyquinolinoline) aluminum (III) ($Alq_3$) as an electron transport and Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT:PSS) as a buffer layer. The current-voltage characteristics were measured in the temperature range of 10K and 300K. A conduction mechanism in OLEDs has been interpreted in terms of space-charge-limited current(SCLC) and tunneling region.Ā᐀會Ā᐀衅?⨀頱岒ᄀĀ저會Ā저?⨀⡌ឫഀĀ᐀會Ā᐀㡆?⨀쁌ឫഀĀ᐀會Ā᐀遆?⨀郞ග瀀ꀏ會Ā?⨀〲岒ऀĀ᐀會Ā᐀䁇?⨀젲岒Ā㰀會Ā㰀顇?⨀끩Ā㈀會Ā㈀?⨀䡪ഀĀ᐀會Ā᐀䡈?⨀Ā᐀會Ā᐀ꁈ?⨀硫Ā저會Ā저?⨀샟ගऀĀ저會Ā저偉?⨀栰岒ഀĀ저會Ā저ꡉ?⨀1岒ഀĀ저會Ā저J?⨀惝ග؀Ā؀會Ā؀塊?⨀ග䈀Ā切

  • In this study, zinc tin oxide (ZTO) thin-film transistors are researched to observe the correlation between the barrier potential and electrical properties. Although much research has been conducted on the electronic radiation from Schottky contacts in semiconductor devices, research on electronic radiation that occurs at voltages above the threshold voltage is lacking. Furthermore, the current phenomena occurring below the threshold voltage need to be studied. Bidirectional transistors exhibit current flows below the threshold voltage, and studying the characteristics of these currents can help understand the problems associated with leakage current. A factor that affects the stability of bidirectional transistors is the potential barrier to the Schottky contact. It has been confirmed that Schottky contacts increase the efficiency of the element in semiconductor devices, by cutting off the leakage current, and that the recombination at the PN junction is closely related to the Schottky contacts. The bidirectional characteristics of the transistors are controlled by the space-charge limiting currents generated by the barrier potentials of the SiOC insulated film. Space-charge limiting currents caused by the tunneling phenomenon or quantum effect are new conduction mechanisms in semiconductors, and are different from the leakage current.

  • In this paper, interleaved boost converter is applied as a pre-regulator in switched mode power supply. The pre-regulator plays a role to improve power factor. Interleaved Boost Power Factor Corrector(IBPFC) can reduce input current ripple as a single voltage control loop only without inner current loop, because input current is divided each 50% by two switching devices. Each converter cell is also operated in discontinuous current mode and inductor current of each converter is discontinuous. Total input current which is composed by each converter cell is continuous current. Thus, IBPFC is able to improve input current ripple. IBPFC operating in discontinuous current mode can be classified as six modes from switching state and be carried out state space averaging small signal modeling. A control transfer function is obtained according to the modeling. Single voltage control loop is also constructed by the control transfer function. From experimental result, improvement of power factor and input current ripple are verified.

  • We present the relationship between vector magnetic field parameters and solar major flare occurrence rate. Based on this, we are developing a forecast model of major flare (M and X-class) occurrence rate within a day using hourly vector magnetic field data of Space-weather HMI Active Region Patch (SHARP) from May 2010 to April 2017. In order to reduce the projection effect, we use SHARP data whose longitudes are within ${\pm}60$ degrees. We consider six SHARP magnetic parameters (the total unsigned current helicity, the total photospheric magnetic free energy density, the total unsigned vertical current, the absolute value of the net current helicity, the sum of the net current emanating from each polarity, and the total unsigned magnetic flux) with high F-scores as useful predictors of flaring activity from Bobra and Couvidat (2015). We have considered two cases. In case 1, we have divided the data into two sets separated in chronological order. 75% of the data before a given day are used for setting up a flare model and 25% of the data after that day are used for test. In case 2, the data are divided into two sets every year in order to reduce the solar cycle (SC) phase effect. All magnetic parameters are divided into 100 groups to estimate the corresponding flare occurrence rates. The flare identification is determined by using LMSAL flare locations, giving more numbers of flares than the NGDC flare list. Major results are as follows. First, major flare occurrence rates are well correlated with six magnetic parameters. Second, the occurrence rate ranges from 0.001 to 1 for M and X-class flares. Third, the logarithmic values of flaring rates are well approximated by two linear equations with different slopes: steeper one at lower values and lower one at higher values. Fourth, the sum of the net current emanating from each polarity gives the minimum RMS error between observed flare rates and predicted ones. Fifth, the RMS error for case 2, which is taken to reduce SC phase effect, are smaller than those for case 1.

  • This paper first gives a brief overview of the history of space law making in the international geopolitical context and recalls some of the main principles as elaborated in the framework of the United Nations. Next, several topics are discussed that will require the attention of space lawyers in the near future. They are the International Space Station, space debris, exploitation of space resources, space tourism, private property rights in space, and militarization and weaponization of space. The paper raises some questions in each of these areas that need to be addressed and concludes that the general legal framework for space activities under public international law as contained in the UN treaties is in place, and is sufficiently general and flexible to enable and encourage states to carry out space activities in an orderly manner. However, as demonstrated by the examples discussed in the paper, the time has come for the international community to agree on the further development of these general principles, starting perhaps with space debris, imminent 'new' uses of space such as space tourism, or some of the 'age old' issues such as the weaponisation of outer space that will continue to require our attention and vigilance. Whether such rules can be in the form of non binding guidelines, codes of conduct and the like, or should be embodied in solid legal instruments creating rights and obligations remains to be seen.

  • Electric propulsion ships are gaining widespread interest in the marine industry owing to extreme air pollution concerns. Consequently, several studies are actively being conducted for improving the power quality. Various methods have been developed that incorporate passive filters, notch filters, and active filters for reducing the harmonic content in the input current of a conventional diode front end rectifier. Among such filters, the active front end (AFE) rectifier is considered as an excellent technology. In this paper, current control for an AFE rectifier employing space vector PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) is proposed. Conventional current control methods for the AFE rectifier, hysteresis, SPWM (Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation), and SVPWM (Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation) were simulated by employing the PSIM software tool for analysis and comparisons. The results corroborate that SVPWM has the simplest structure and provides the best performance.

  • Nanotechnology(NT) refers to a field of advanced micro-technology covering the creation and manufacturing of materials on the atomic and molecular scale and requires interdisciplinary study with various fields including materials science, physics, chemistry, electronics and others. Whileas nanotechnology is a kind of micro and small scaled science, space technology(ST) is one of the larger and system technologies utilizing broad fields of mechanical, materials, electronics and communication technologies. It is necessary to select and concentrate the functional items of nanotechnology for efficient application to be utilized in space technology, due to the cross-sectional characteristics of nanotechnology within nanomaterials, nanoelectronics, and nanomanufacturing. This paper provides the current state of art of nanotechnology in space technology by evaluating NASA's activities and the 9th frame of the project ANTARES(Analysis of Nanotechnology Applications in Space Developments and Systems) with the support of the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Space Flight Management, Division Technology for Space Systems and Robotics. It has shown that it is necessary to apply nanotechnology to space technology in order to achieve international competitiveness, for the nanotechnology can bring the previously impossible things to reality. Since KARI plans to send an unmanned probe to the moon's orbit and land a probe on the moon's surface in 2025, it is urgently needed to incorporate nanotechnology to national space development plan.

  • The current article has explored the effect of productive capacities (as defined by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development) and of structural economic vulnerability (as defined by the United Nations) on fiscal space volatility in developing countries. It relies on the definition and measure of fiscal space proposed by Aizenman and Jinjarak (2010; 2011) and Aizenman et al. (2019). To compute the indicator of fiscal space and hence that of fiscal space volatility, fiscal space is considered as the ratio of outstanding public debt to the 'de facto tax base', the latter being the number of years of tax revenues needed for a country to repay its debt. Results based on a sample of 116 countries from 2000 to 2018 have revealed that the enhancement of productive capacities is associated with lower fiscal space volatility, while higher structural economic vulnerability heightens fiscal space volatility. On another note, highly vulnerable countries tend to experience a higher negative effect of productive capacities on fiscal space volatility than relatively less vulnerable countries.

  • Space truss design usually involves two main assumptions: that truss members are pin-ended, and compression members possess brittle post-buckling characteristics. The validity of these assumptions in the design of a new group of space trusses with continuous chords and eccentric joints is questionable. With chord member continuity and the consequent improvement in compression member behaviour, current design practice might be too conservative. In this paper, it is shown that substantial improvements in overall truss strength have resulted when the true member end conditions are considered, thus indicating potential savings in truss weight with considerable magnitudes.

  • In 2005, Patterson studied lacunary statistical convergence of double sequences of real numbers and, in 2009, Mursaleen introduced notion of lacunary statistical convergence of single sequences in intuitionistic fuzzy normed space. The current work intends to investigate the lacunary statistical convergence of double sequences and some significant conclusions on the algebra of the lacunary statistical limit of double sequences in intuitionistic fuzzy normed space. In addition, we have studied some examples to support the definitions.
