  • A reference voltage generator which is insensitive to PVT (process-voltage-temperature) variation necessary for NVM memory IPs such as EEPROM and MTP memories is designed in this paper. The designed BGR (bandgap reference voltage) circuit based on MagnaChip's $0.18{\mu}m$ EEPROM process uses a low-voltage bandgap reference voltage generator of cascode current-mirror type with a wide swing and shows a reference voltage characteristic insensitive to PVT variation. The minimum operating voltage is 1.43V and the VREF sensitivity against VDD variation is 0.064mV/V. Also, the VREF sensitivity against temperature variation is $20.5ppm/^{\circ}C$. The VREF voltage has a mean of 1.181V and its three sigma ($3{\sigma}$) value is 71.7mV.

  • Electronic packages consist of various materials, and as temperature changes, warpage occurs because of the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion. Shadow $moir{\acute{e}}$ is non-contact, whole field measurement technique for out-of-plane displacement. However, the technique has low sensitivity above $50{\mu}m/fringe$, it is not adequate for the warpage measurement in some circumstance. In this paper, by applying phase shifting process to the traditional shadow $moir{\acute{e}}$, measurement system having enhanced sensitivity of $12.5{\mu}m/fringe$ is constructed. Considering Talbot effect, the measurement is carried out in the half Talbot area. Shadow fringe pattern having four times enhanced sensitivity is obtained by the image process with four shadow fringes. The measurement technique is applied to the fibered package substrate and coreless package substrate for measuring warpages at room temperature and at about $100^{\circ}C$.

  • Ammonia gas sensors were fabricated with ZnO-based thin films grown by RF-magnetron sputtering method. The films which were doped with $MoO_3$ catalysts of various weight percents were grown in different sputtering gases to fabricate the sensors with a high sensitivity, low working temperature and rapid response time. To improve electrical stability, the films were aged in various conditions. The sensors doped with the catalysts and grown in oxygen sputtering gas showed the improvement of sensitivity. These exhibited the increase of surface carrier concentration and electron mobility. The sensor with 0.875wt.% $MoO_3$ catalysts showed the maximum sensitivity of 70 in ammonia gas concentration of 160 ppm at a working temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. The sensor which is aged at $330^{\circ}C$ for 72hrs in oxygen ambient exhibited tourer sensitivity of 57, but more stable properties, excellent linearity.

  • The Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288c strain does not show haploid and diploid filamentous growth, and biofilm formation, because it has a flo8 nonsense mutation unlike ${\Sigma}1278b$ strain which has a FLO8 gene. During the heat stress experiments to investigate the role of ScKns1, LAMMER kinase in S. cerevisiae, we found that ${\Sigma}1278b$ strain revealed heat sensitivity at $37^{\circ}C$, a mild heat stress in contrast to S288c strain. We also found that the disruption of ScKns1 and the addition of sorbitol suppress heat sensitivity of ${\Sigma}1278b$ strain. These results suggest the possibility that Flo8 and ScKns1 may interact to transducer a signal for regulating heat stress through a novel signaling pathway.

  • The effects of $SnO_2$ crystallite size on the powder characteristics, the resistance in air and the sensitivity to 0.5 vol % $H_2$, CO-air mixture were observed. The size of SnO, powder was controlled by calcining temperature variation ($500^{\circ}C$ ~$1100^{\circ}C$) of $\alpha$-stannic acid fabricated from $SnCl_4 \cdot xH_2O$. Its crystallite size. evaluated from TEM image, was in the range of 8-54nm. With the reduction of crystallite size, the adsoption peak of $H_2O$ on FTIR curve became more clear while the lattice parameters were invariable. As the crystallite size decreased, with elements of thick film, the temperatures showing a minimum resistance in air and a maximum sensitivity to H, gas reduced. The temperature variations were assigned to the changes of activation energy of the active adsorbates, and it was suggested that the decrease of activation energy can be one of the reasons for the' sensitivity increase with the' fine powder.

  • Several kinds of biodegradable hydrogels were prepared via in situ photopolymerization of Pluronic F127/poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) macromer and acrylic acid (AA) comonomer in aqueous medium. The swelling kinetics measurements showed that the resultant hydrogels exhibited both thermo- and pH-sensitive behaviors, and that this stimuli-responsiveness underwent a fast reversible process. With increasing pH of the local buffer solutions, the pH sensitivity of the hydrogels was increased, while the temperature sensitivity was decreased. In vitro hydrolytic degradation in the buffer solution (pH 7.4, $37^{\circ}C$), the degradation rate of the hydrogels was greatly improved due to the introduction of the AA comonomer. The in vitro release profiles of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in-situ embedded into the hydrogels were also investigated: the release mechanism of BSA based on the Peppas equation was followed Case II diffusion. Such biodegradable dual-sensitive hydrogel materials may have more advantages as a potentially interesting platform for smart drug delivery carriers and tissue engineering scaffolds.

  • Curtain wall system of office buildings has recently become very common in Korea. As the multi-layer curtain glazing is exposed to outdoor environment, it is very subjected to direct environmental impact. Consequently, breakage and cracks of glazing due to heat expansion is frequently observed. This study explores various causes and aspects for destruction of multi-layer glazing. A sensitivity analysis was performed on the basis that thermal changes causes damage to the multi-layer glazing. Air temperature in air cavity within the multi-layer glazing was examined to find its effect on multi-layer glazing breakage. Analysis showed high deflection to depth ratio of 1:1.8 and that higher the aspect ratio, smaller is the deflection. Allowable pressure showed that the weakest value is for aspect ratio of 1:2.9. Sensitivity analysis by the area of the glazing showed that as area of glazing becomes higher, allowable pressure and deflection-depth ratio becomes smaller. For allowable pressure and allowable deflection-depth within air cavity, the glazing breakage occurred at least $107^{\circ}C$. The results from glazing breakage by thermal factor shows that it is hard to break the glazing with only an increase in air cavity temperature in multi-layer glazing applied in buildings.

  • This study was undertaken to find out the effect of heating time and temperature, pH and NaCl concentration on heat sensitivity of egg albumen during heat treatment. Sharp increase of the turbidity and rapid decrease of the foaming power were observed when egg albumen was heated at above $60^{\circ}C$. Egg albumen became opaque when it was heated at $60^{\circ}C$ for above 13 minutes or at $65^{\circ}C$ for above 5 minutes. The turbidity was markedly increased at below pH 7 and the foaming power was largely decreased at around pH 4.0 by the heat treatment ($60^{\circ}C$, 5 min). The foam stability was slightly decreased at alkaline pH range by the heat treatment (60t, 5 min). The addition of NaCl up to 0.3M decreased the turbidity. There was no effect of NaCl addition on the foaming power, but the foam stability was decreased by the addition of NaCl at above 0.2M before and after the heat treatment ($60^{\circ}C$, 5 min).

  • PURPOSES : The objectives of this study are to evaluate moisture sensitivity of various asphalt mixtures and to suggest an alternate method for the dynamic immersion test, which is used to determine the application of anti-stripping agent, by analyzing bond strength. METHODS : The bond strength of various asphalt mixtures such as hot mix asphalt, warm mix asphalt, and polymer-modified asphalt was evaluated by the ABS test. In order to characterize moisture sensitivity at different temperatures of the mixtures, the ABS test was conducted at $-10^{\circ}C$, $5^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$, $40^{\circ}C$, and $54^{\circ}C$ under both dry and wet conditions. The concept of the bond strength ratio was applied for objective moisture sensitivity analysis. Moreover, the bond strength characteristic was compared to the dynamic immersion test to suggest an alternate method to determine the application of anti-stripping agent. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS : Overall, the polymer-modified asphalt demonstrates the highest bond strength characteristic regardless of moisture condition and temperature. The bond strength characteristic displays a highly reliable linear relationship from $5^{\circ}C$ to $40^{\circ}C$, and the relationship could be used to predict bond strength at any intermediate temperature. Based on the analysis of bond strength and retained asphalt ratio, the bond strength value of 1254 kPa could be applied as a criterion for anti-stripping agent.

  • As an ozone gas sensor, the semiconductor gas sensor which is cheap, portable and simple in use and has a high sensitivity and an excellent selectivity, has been known as an alternative. In the present study, ITO ($In_2O_3 95%,\;SnO_2$ 5%) thin films were deposited on the alumina substrate by using R.F. magnetron sputtering method. The substrate temperature was 300$^{\circ}C$ and 500$^{\circ}C$, respectively and then some specimens were annealed at 500$^{\circ}C$ for 4h in air. ITO gas-sensing films formed crystallines before and after annealing. As results of gas sensitivity measurements to an ozone gas, the sensor deposited at 300$^{\circ}C$ and then annealed has the highest sensitivity (sensible below 1 ppm). As the operating temperature increased gradually, the sensitivity decreased but the response time and stability improved.
