  • A wave buoy commonly used for measurements in marine environments is very useful for measurements on the sea surface wind and waves. However, it is constantly exposed to external forces such as typhoons and the risk of accidents caused by ships. Therefore, the installation and maintenance charges are large and constant. In this study, we developed a system for monitoring the sea surface wind using marine radar to provide spatial and temporal information about sea surface waves at a small cost. The essential technology required for this system is radar signal processing. This paper also describes the analytical process of using it for monitoring the sea surface wind. Consequently, developing this system will make it possible to replace wave buoys in the near future.

  • As mechanical components are miniaturized, the demand on micro die and mold is increasing. Micro mechanical components usually have high hardness and good conductivity. So micro electrical discharge machining (MEDM) is an effective way to machine those components. In micro cavity fabrication using MEDM, it is observed that the bottom surface of cavity is distorted. Electric charges tend to be concentrated at the sharp edge. At the center of the bottom surface, debris can not be drawn off easily. These two phenomena make the bottom surface of the electrode and workpiece distort. As machining depth increases, the distorted shape of electrode approaches hemisphere. This process is affected by capacitance and the size of electrode. By using a smaller electrode than the desired cavity size and appropriate tool movement, bottom shape distortion can be prevented.

  • The effects of accelerated UV radiation on EPDM used for a polymeric insulator were investigated by contact angle, surface voltage decay after corona charging, SEM-EDX, ATR-FTIR and XPS. EPDM occurs as loss of hydrophobicity by UV treatment, which followed by surface cracking and chalking. The surface voltage decay on UV-treated EPDM show that the shorter decay time corresponded to the treated samples with a longer UV exposure time. The surface oxygen and aluminum content were found to increase and carbon decrease, as is observed in EDX analysis. The ATR-FTIR and XPS indicated that C-C and C-H groups decreased and the highly oxidized carbon bonds such as C-O, C=O and O-C=O increase with time. Also, the effects of surface charges on hydrophobicity based on our results is discussed.

  • Orientational ordering of polar molecules and excess charges at the interface are main origins of surface polarization. For organic electronics, probing and control of these two surface polarization phenomena are key issues. In this presentation, I report a novel electrical measurement that can directly probe orientational dipolar motion in surface monolayers by Maxwell-displacement-current, and also report a novel optical technique that allows carrier motions in organic materials by measuring the optical second harmonic signals activated by the electric field. Then I discuss how the control of dipolar motions and carrier motions are linked to organic electronics applications such as organic field effect transistors.

  • As mechanical components are miniaturized, the demands on micro die/mold are increasing. Micro mechanical components usually have high hardness and good conductivity. Micro electrical discharge machining (MEDM) can thus be an effective way to machine those components. In micro cavity fabrication using MEDM, it is observed that the bottom surface of the cavity is distorted. Electric charges tend to be concentrated at the sharp edge, and debris cannot be drawn off easily at the center of the bottom surface. These two phenomena make the bottom surface of electrode and workpiece distort. As machining depth increases, the distorted shape of the electrode approaches hemisphere. This process is affected by both capacitance and the size of electrode.

  • Electromagnet ic wave falling on solid surface acts on the medium with a force. This force brings about a redistribution of surface charges and the surface potential is varied. By measuring this potential variations, the surface electrical properties on conductors, semicionductors and dielectrics can be tested. In this paper, two dimensional photocharge voltage on the $LiNbO_3$ wafer induced by He-Ne laser beam, the temperature characteristics and the capacitive coupling test structure for the photocharge voltage measurement for the dielectrical materials are shown.

  • In this work, the electrochemical properties of the surface treated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) are investigated for supercapacitors. Nitrogen- and oxygen functional groups containing MWNTs are prepared by nitrogen precursors and acidic treatment, respectively. The surface properties of the MWNTs are confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Zeta-potential measurements. The electrochemical properties of the MWNTs are investigated by cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectra, and charge-discharge cycling performance in 1 M $H_2SO_4$ at room temperature. As a result, these functionalized MWNTs lead to an increase in the specific capacitance as compared with the pristine MWNTs. It proposes that the pyridinic and pyridinic-N-oxides nitrogen species influence on the specific capacitance due to their positive charges, and thus an improved electron transfer at high current loads, since they are the most important functional groups affecting capacitive behaviors.

  • In this work, the discharge characteristics and temporal distribution of surface charges on the Sidoped MgO have been investigated and elucidated with the results of photon-induced surface current. Even though the Si doped MgO shows lower static voltage margin, higher luminous efficacy, and shorter statistical delay time, its discharge characteristics become deteriorated as the timing of scanning is delayed from the ramp type reset pulse down. Overall features of Si-doped MgO in discharge characteristics are well correlated with surface current characteristics.

  • Characterizing electrochemical polymerization of polypyrrole film on a substrate depends on many parameters. Among them, potential difference and cumulative charges play important role. The level of potential difference affects the quality of the polypyrrole. On the contrary, cumulative charge affects the thickness of the polypyrrole. The substrate surface is adjusted physically and chemically by treating with sandblasting and the addition of thiol for surface adhesion improvement. Experimental results show that the sandblasted and thiol treated substrate provides better. adhesion than non-sandblasted and non-thiol treated substrate.
