  • By analyzing the observations from a number of ground- and space-based instruments, including ionosonde, magnetometers, and ACE interplanetary data, we examine the response of the ionospheric TEC over Korea during 2003 magnetic storms. We found that the variation of vertical TEC is correlated with the southward turning of the interplanetary magnetic field $B_z$. It is suggested that the electric fields produced by the dynamo process in the high-latitude region and the prompt penetration in the low- latitude region are responsible for TEC increases. During the June 16 event, dayside TEC values increase more than 15%. And the ionospheric F2-layer peak height (hmF2) was ${\sim}300km$ higher and the vertical $E{\times}B$ drift (estimated from ground-based magnetometer equatorial electrojet delta H) showed downward drift, which may be due to the ionospheric disturbance dynamo electric field produced by the large amount of energy dissipation into high-latitude regions. In contrast, during November 20 event, the nightside TEC increases may be due to the prompt penetration westward electric field. The ionospheric F2-layer peak height was below 200km and the vertical $E{\times}B$ drift showed downward drift. Also, a strong correlation is observed between enhanced vertical TEC and enhaaced interplanetary electric field. It is shown that, even though TEC increases are caused by the different processes, the electric field disturbances in the ionosphere play an important role in the variation of TEC over Korea.

  • The performance of the new aerobic digestion system combined with inorganic sludge separation unit and sludge solubilization unit, CaviTec II, is evaluated. Anaerobic digester effluent sludge is used for feed sludge of CaviTec II system. By addition of CaviTec II, the amount of cake generated is reduced by 27%, and the soluble nitrogen is reduced by 92%.

  • The Total Electron Content (TEC) measured from Global Positioning System (GPS) can be continuously or peculiarly increased (positive ionospheric storm) or decreased (negative ionospheric storm) with solar and geomagnetic activities as well as the chemical and dynamic processes with thermosphere in the mid-latitudes. The ionospheric storm is not easy to predict owing to its difficult mechanism, and the real-time GPS TEC monitoring may be useful to follow ionospheric response to solar and geomagnetic storms. Korea Astronomy & Space Science Institute has continuously monitor GPS TEC over Korea Peninsula in near real-time of 10 minutes to watch activities. In this presentation, we will report the variation of GPS TEC over Daejeon and JeJu in Korea during the period of solar flare eruption and geomagnetic storm events in 2011. These events in 2011 will be compared with the event in October 2003 and November 2004.

  • The metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor(MOSFET) has undergone many changes in the last decade in response to the constant demand for increased speed, decreased power, and increased packing density. This paper has compared Micro-Tec with ISE-TCAD. This paper investigates LDD MOSFET using two simulators. Bias condition is applied to the devices with gate lengths 180nm. We have presented MOSF ET's characteristics such as I-V characteristic, electric field. and compared with Micro-Tec and ISE-TCAD.

  • National Meteorological Satellite Center(NMSC) of Korea Meteorological Administration(KMA) is collecting GNSS data in near-real time for about 80 GNSS stations operated by multiple agencies. (eg. National Geographic Information Institute (NGII), Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI), DGNSS Central Office) Using these GNSS data, NMSC developed automatic Total Electron Contents(TEC) derivation system over the Korean peninsular every 1-hour based on single station data processing. We present the TEC result and validation of TEC using International GNSS Service(IGS) global TEC data for the case of quiet time and storm time. The future plans for the system improvement will be discussed.

  • 본 논문에서는 열전소자(TEC모듈)를 이용한 에어컨의 개발에 대하여 검토한다. 사용한 TEC모듈의 개수와 TEC모듈의 발열부를 냉각하는 FAN냉각방식과 분사냉각방식에 따른 냉각능력을 평가하였다. 분사냉각방식의 경우에는 기존의 에어컨과 동등한 수준의 냉각능력을 갖는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 급속냉각은 어렵지만 약 1시간 후부터는 충분히 사용 가능하며, 열전소자 한 개당 약 1평을 냉각할 수 있으며, 기존에어컨의 가격에 비해 약 50∼70%정도로 충분한 가격 경쟁력이 있다. 빙축열 방식 등을 적용하면, peak 쳐t등의 효용성으로 상품화 가능성이 매우 크다고 판단된다.

  • This study addresses the effectiveness of TEC(Thermoelectric cooler) application for spacecraft thermal control. The required radiator area and power consumption characteristics of active thermal control using TEC are compared with the passive control at BOL and EOL through unsteady thermal analyses by calculating external heat fluxes. When the component operating temperature is low enough in TEC active control, the required radiator area can be smaller than the passive thermal control. TEC also needs less power consumption than the passive control under the condition that the temperature of cooling pars is low enough and/or the design temperature margin of the components is narrow enough.

  • 본 연구에서는 MicroTec을 이용하여 MOSFET 전송 특성을 분석하였다. MicroTec의 Semsim은 디바이스 시뮬레이터로써 입력 바이어스에 의해 공정 시뮬레이션인 SiDif와 디바이스 조립인 MergIC에 의해 소자를 시뮬레이션 한다. 소자에 대한 스케일링은 정전압 스케일링을 사용하였고, 채널의 길이는 100nm, 50nm, 25nm로 변화하면서 비교 분석하였다. MicroTec의 이동도 모델중 Lombardi, Constant, Yamaguchi 모델을 선택하여 이동도 모델을 비교하였다. 전류-전압 특성 곡선을 비교하였을때 Lombardi 모델과 Yamaguchi 모델보다 Constant 모델에서 결과값이 높게 나타는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 MicroTec의 유용성을 조사하여 시뮬레이터로서 적합함과 나노구조 소자의 스케일링 이론의 적합함을 보았다.
