For decreasing of the casualties and designing of the smoke control systems in the ultra high-rise building, the programs for analysis of smoke control were developed for prediction of smoke spread and distributions of pressure and temperature in building fire situation. In this study, coupling algorithm between mass and enthalpy conservations was modified for improving the applicability of the CAU_ESCAP which program can consider the energy transfer. The fire situation in ultra high-rise building was applied by using the modified CAU_ESCAP. Results of pressure difference predicted by modified CAU_ESCAP are higher than results of ASCOS as stack effect is generated due to the increasing of stairway temperature. Moreover, theoretically, the result of the neutral plane is more accurate than the result of ASCOS, in fire situation of ultra high-rise building.

In this paper, a lens actuator for mobile devices is proposed using stack type piezoelectric materials. In general, the deformation of PZT actuators is not enough for lens motion when the allowed voltage is applied. The small stroke problem can be solved by accumulating a lot of small displacements in high frequency. In this paper, a new inch-worm type model for focusing actuator is suggested based on the interaction of inertial and frictional forces. Theoretical analysis and simulation using ANSYS are performed to verify the feasibility of the inch-worm PZT actuator model. Various types of clamps are considered to determine the effect of frictional force on the motion, and appropriate clamp-actuator models are proposed. The proposed models are experimentally verified and the experimental results show high correspondence with theoretical and simulated values. The inch-worm type focusing actuator enable a large stroke with 7.79 mm/sec with 10kHz and 10V.

This paper aims to develop an SMPS topology for handling a high range of input voltages based on a DC-DC flyback converter circuit. For this purpose, 2 capacitors of the same specifications were serially connected on the input terminal side, with a flyback converter of the same circuit configuration serially connected to each of them, so as to achieve high input voltage and an effect of dividing input voltage. The serially connected flyback converters have the transformer turn ratio of 1:1, so that each coil is used for the winding of a single transformer, which is a characteristic of doubly-fed configuration and enables the correction of input capacitor voltage imbalance. In addition, a pulse transformer was designed and fabricated in a way that can achieve the isolation and noise robustness of the PWM output signal of the PWM controller that applies gate voltage to individual flyback converter switches. PSIM simulation was carried out to verify such a structure and confirm its feasibility, and a 100W class stack was fabricated and used to verify the feasibility of the proposed high voltage SMPS topology.

In this study, we investigated the effect of electrodes on resistance switching of TaOx film. Pt, Ni, TiN, Ti and Al metal electrodes having the different oxidation degree were deposited on TaOx/Pt stack. Unipolar resistance switching behavior in Pt or Ni/TaOx/Pt MIM stacks was investigated, but bipolar resistance switching behavior in TiN, Ti or Al /TaOx/Pt MIM stacks was shown. We investigated that the voltage dependence of capacitance was decreased with higher oxidation degree of metal electrodes. Through the C-V results, we expected that linearity ($\alpha$) and quadratic ($\beta$) coefficient was reduced with an increase of interface layer between top electrode and Tantalum oxide. Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) images depicted the thickness of interface layer formed with different oxidation degree of top electrode. Unipolar resistance switching behavior shown in lower oxidation degree of top electrode was expected to be generated by the formation of the conducting path in TaOx film. But redox reaction in interface between top electrode and Tantalum oxide may play an important role on bipolar resistance switching behavior exhibited in higher oxidation degree of top electrode. We expected that the resistance switching characteristics were determined by oxidation degree of metal electrodes.

The effects of thermal cycling on residual stresses in both inorganic passivation/insulating layer that is deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and organic thin film that is used as a bonding adhesive are evaluated by 4 point bending method and wafer curvature method. $SiO_2/SiN_x$ and BCB (Benzocyclobutene) are used as inorganic and organic layers, respectively. A model about the effect of thermal cycling on residual stress and bond strength (Strain energy release rate), $G_c$, at the interface between inorganic thin film and organic adhesive is developed. In thermal cycling experiments conducted between $25^{\circ}C$ and either $350^{\circ}C$ or $400^{\circ}C$, $G_c$ at the interface between BCB and PECVD $ SiN_x $ decreases after the first cycle. This trend in $G_c$ agreed well with the prediction based on our model that the increase in residual tensile stress within the $SiN_x$ layer after thermal cycling leads to the decrease in $G_c$. This result is compared with that obtained for the interface between BCB and PECVD $SiO_2$, where the relaxation in residual compressive stress within the $SiO_2$ induces an increase in $G_c$. These opposite trends in $G_cs$ of the structures including either PECVD $ SiN_x $ or PECVD $SiO_2$ are caused by reactions in the hydrogen-bonded chemical structure of the PECVD layers, followed by desorption of water.

One of the critical issues for applications of flexible organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) for flexible electronic systems is the electrical stabilities of the OTFT devices, including variation of the current on/off ratio (Ion/Ioff), leakage current, threshold voltage, and hysteresis under repetitive mechanical deformation. In particular, repetitive mechanical deformation accelerates the degradation of device performance at the ambient environment. In this work, electrical stability of the pentacene organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) employing multi-stack hybrid encapsulation layers was investigated under mechanical cyclic bending. Flexible bottom-gated pentacene-based OTFTs fabricated on flexible polyimide substrate with poly-4-vinyl phenol (PVP) dielectric as a gate dielectric were encapsulated by the plasma-deposited organic layer and atomic-layer-deposited inorganic layer. For cyclic bending experiment of flexible OTFTs, the devices were cyclically bent up to 105 times with 5mm bending radius. In the most of the devices after 105 times of bending cycles, the off-current of the OTFT with no encapsulation layers was quickly increased due to increases in the conductivity of the pentacene caused by doping effects from $O_2$ and $H_2O$ in the atmosphere, which leads to decrease in the Ion/Ioff and increase in the hysteresis. With encapsulation layers, however, the electrical stabilities of the OTFTs were improved significantly. In particular, the OTFTs with multi-stack hybrid encapsulation layer showed the best electrical stabilities up to the bending cycles of $10^5$ times compared to the devices with single organic encapsulation layer. Changes in electrical properties of cyclically bent OTFTs with encapsulation layers will be discussed in detail.

In this study, we tried to verify the correlation of the amount of combustible industrial by-products, household waste used as fuels on cement sintering process and the amount of NOx, and CO, harmful components in the exhaust gas. The analysis uses coal as natural fuel, soft plastics (plastics with properties that tend to be scattered by wind, such as vinyls), hard plastics (plastics with properties that are not scattered by wind, such as PETs, wate rubbers), and reclaimed oils as alternative fuels. Utilizing the response surface analysis (RSM) technique using the process data of 2019, such as the fuel input and combustion temperature of a domestic A cement manufacturer's sintering facilities as independent variables, and the NOx, and CO emissions to the stack as dependent variables. Correlation was analyzed. As a result, it was confirmed that the impact on the emission material differs for each waste. In particular, it was analyzed that the hard plastics increase the CO emission but have an excellent effect of reducing NOx.

Injection molding is one of plastic forming technology which can easily mass-produce plastic parts with various and even complex shape. The technology has lots of difficulties in making a good part due to phase change of material, high applied pressure, and fast melt flow speed in the cavity. To overcome the problems, they had to make trial and error method until the CAE(Computer Aided Engineering) could be a tool for concurrent engineering. In this paper, we investigate the optimal design for a plastic DVD tray part by systematic approach of the commercial CAE program. In design, we should consider two objectives which are both dimensional stability and cost-down. The dimension of the part is crucial because the tray should carry a DVD correctly, but the part is too thin to injection-mold easily. In order to improve the moldability, the mold is designed in the form of stack mold which is a kind of 4 hot runner system. In first, we changed the stack-mold system with one hot-runner to cost down, and decided the optimal position of the gate. After that, we investigate the effect of both the layout of cooling channels and the cooling temperature on the shrinkage of the DVD tray. A optimal simulation approach, the gate design is 2Gate#3 and the layout is Case2 cooling line as the optimal temperature of $70^{\circ}C$. The Moldflow and PC+ABS are used for the CAE program and material respectively.

일반적으로, 나노스케일의 MOS 소자에서는 게이트 절연체 두께가 감소함에 따라 tunneling effect의 증가로 인해 PID (plasma induced damage)로 인한 소자 특성 저하 현상을 감소하는 추세로 알려져 있다. 하지만 요즘 많이 사용되고 있는 high-k 게이트 절연체의 경우에는 오히려 더 많은 charge들이 trapping 되면서 PID가 오히려 더 심각해지는 현상이 나타나고 있다. 이러한 high-k 게이트 식각 시 현재는 주로 Hf-based wet etch나 dry etch가 사용되고 있지만 gate edge 영역에서 high-k 게이트 절연체의 undercut 현상이나 PID에 의한 소자특성 저하가 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이에 차세대 MOS 소자의 gate stack 구조중 issue화 되고 있는 metal gate 층과 gate dielectric 층의 식각공정에 각각 중성빔 식각과 중성빔 원자층 식각을 적용하여 전기적 손상 없이 원자레벨의 정확한 식각 조절을 해줄 수 있는 새로운 two step 식각 공정에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 먼저 TiN metal gate 층의 식각을 위해 HBr과 $Cl_2$ 혼합가스를 사용한 중성빔 식각기술을 적용하여 100 eV 이하의 에너지 조건에서 하부층인 $HfO_2$와 거의 무한대의 식각 선택비를 얻었다. 하지만 100 eV 조건에서는 낮은 에너지에 의한 빔 스케터링으로 실제 패턴 식각시 etch foot이 발생되는 현상이 관찰되었으며, 이를 해결하기 위하여 먼저 높은 에너지로 식각을 진행하고 $HfO_2$와의 계면 근처에서 100 eV로 식각을 해주는 two step 방법을 사용하였다. 그 결과 anistropic 하고 하부층에 etch stop된 식각 형상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 다음으로 3.5nm의 매우 얇은 $HfO_2$ gate dielectric 층의 정확한 식각 깊이 조절을 위해 $BCl_3$와 Ar 가스를 이용한 중성빔 원자층 식각기술을 적용하여 $1.2\;{\AA}$/cycle의 단일막 식각 조건을 확립하고 약 30 cycle 공정시 3.5nm 두께의 $HfO_2$ 층이 완벽히 제거됨을 관찰할 수 있었다. 뿐만 아니라, vertical 한 식각 형상 및 향상된 표면 roughness를 transmission electron microscope(TEM)과 atomic force microscope (AFM)으로 관찰할 수 있었다. 이러한 중성빔 식각과 중성빔 원자층 식각기술이 결합된 새로운 gate recess 공정을 실제 MOSFET 소자에 적용하여 기존 식각 방법으로 제작된 소자 결과를 비교해 본 결과 gate leakage current가 약 one order 정도 개선되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.
