We propose a new method to monitor the water level of spent fuel pool in a nuclear power plant without electric power. We also analyze the performance and limitation of the proposed method. Our method is based on the reflected optical power at the end of optical fiber through a $1{\times}N$ optical coupler. We reveal that there is no problem to monitor the water level when using a $1{\times}8$ optical coupler. However, when a $1{\times}16$ optical coupler is used, only 15 out of 16 output ports can be used due to Rayleigh back-scattering. When a $1{\times}32$ optical coupler is used, only 25 out of 32 output ports can be used to monitor the water level.

In conventional HEVC inverse core transform architectures, extra $n{\times}n$ inverse transform block is added to $2n{\times}2n$ inverse transform block, and it operates as one $2n{\times}2n$ inverse transform block or two $n{\times}n$ inverse transform blocks. Thus, same number of pixels are processed in the same time, but it suffers from increased hardware size due to extra $n{\times}n$ inverse transform block. To avoid this problem, a novel $8{\times}8$ HEVC inverse core transform architecture was proposed to eliminate extra $4{\times}4$ inverse transform block based on multiplier reuse. This paper extends this approach and proposes a novel HEVC $16{\times}16$ inverse core transform architecture. Its frame processing time is same in $4{\times}4$, $8{\times}8$, and $16{\times}16$ inverse core transforms, and reduces gate counts by 13%.

In this study, charge pumping method was used to investigate the Si-SiO$_2$interface characteristics of the nonvolatile SNOSFET memory devices, fabricated using the CMOS 1 Mbit processes (1.2$\mu\textrm{m}$ design rule), with thin oxide layer of 30${\AA}$ thick and nitride layer of 525${\AA}$ thick on the n-type silicon substrate (p-channel). Charge pumping current characteristics with the pulse base level were measured for various frequencies, falling times and rising times. By means of the charge dynamics in a non-steady state, the average Si-SiO$_2$interface state density and capture cross section were determined to be 3.565${\times}$10$\^$11/cm$\^$-2/eV$\^$-1/ and 4.834${\times}$10$\^$-16/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. However Si-SiO$_2$ interface state densities were disributed 2.8${\times}$10$\^$-11/～5.6${\times}$10$\^$11/cm$\^$-2/～6${\times}$10$\^$11/cm$\^$-2/eV$\^$-1/ in the lover half of energy gap.

양성자 조사법에 의하여 고속 전력용 다이오드를 제작하기 위하여 punch-through 다이오드에 다양한 조건으로 양성자를 조사하였다. 동일한 소자에 전자선을 조사한 소자와 속도 향상을 위한 공정이 행하여지지 않은 동일한 소자 각각의 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 양성자 주입은 주입 에너지를 1 MeV 와 1.3 MeV로, 각 에너지 조건에서 도즈를 $1\times10^{12}cm^{-2}$, $1\times10^{13}cm^{-2}$로 변화 시켰다. 분석 결과 양성자 주입된 소자에서 역방향 회복시간은 최소 소자의 약 45%, 전자선이 조사된 소자에 비하여 약 73 %의 값으로 향상시킬 수 있었으며 역방향 항복 전압과 순방향 저항은 처리되지 않은 소자와 전자빔이 조사된 시편들의 값과 비슷한 값을 나타내었다.

This paper presents a study on the tubeless Plasma Display Panel (PDP) packaging using glass-to-glass electrostatic bonding with intermediate amorphous silicon. The bonded sample sealing the mixed gas with three species showed high strength ranging from 2.5 MPa to 4 MPa. The glass-to-glass bonding for packaging was performed at a low temperature of $180^{\circ}C$ by applying bias of 250 $V_{dc}$ in ambient of mixed gases of He-Ne(27 %)-Xe(3 %). The tubeless packaging was accomplished by bonding the support glass plate of $30mm{\times}50mm$ on the rear glass panel and the capping glass of $20mm{\times}20mm$. The 4-inch color AC-PDP with thickness of 8 mm was successfully fabricated and fully emitted as white color at a firing voltage of 190V.

In this study, a 28-GHz U-slot array antenna for a wideband communication system is proposed. The U-slot patch antenna structure consists of a patch, two U-shaped slot, and a ground plane. With the additional U-slot, the proposed antenna has around 10% of bandwidth at -10 dB. To increase gain, the U-slot antenna is arrayed to $2{\times}2$. The proposed antenna is designed and fabricated. The $2{\times}2$ array antenna volume is $41.3mm{\times}46mm{\times}0.508mm$. The proposed antenna was measured and compared with the simulation results to prove the reliability of the design. The bandwidth and gain of the measurement results are 3.35 GHz and 13 dBi, respectively and the operating frequency is around 28 GHz.

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effects of inclined angles of channel on thermal stability of electronic components. In this study, it is focused on the natural convection heat transfer from an inclined parallel channel with discrete protruding heat sources. The material used for the inclined parallel channel was epoxy-resin, while air as the cooling fluid. Heat transfer phenomena for inclined angles of $\psi$=$15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$ and for the range of $9.52{\times}10^5/ were analyzed. The thermal fields in the channel were visualized by Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Also, local temperatures were measured by thermocouples along the channel wall and heat sources surface. As a result, for the range of $4.29{\times} 10^5/, a useful correlation of mean Nusselt number was proposed as a function of modified channel Rayleigh number.

In order to detect the partial discharge with the metallic particle in GIS the AE(Acoustic Emission) sensor was designed and simulated by ANSYS 5.5 and manufactured as the coupled vibration mode. The measured resonant frequency and the maximum sensitivity frequency of three coupled AE sensors were as follows ; 147.88 kHz in 8.1mm $\Phi$$\times$8.1mm 128.82 kHz and 58.8 kHz in 9.5 mm$\Phi$$\times$9.5mm, 85.22 kHz and 32.6 kHz in 14.3 mm$\Phi$$\times$14.3 mm, resonant frequency of the AE sensor. The AE sensor of 9.5 mm$\Phi$$\times$9.5mm responded higher than the other coupled vibration mode AE sensor at the partial discharge detection in GIS.

New inchworm type piezoelectric actuator design, which can reduce the number of the piezoelectric body for manufacturing inchworm type actuator, is suggested in this work. Inchworm type actuator consists of three or more piezoelectric bodies, on the other hand the new-designed inchworm type actuator has only one piezoelectric body. The one piezoelectric body that size is $2\;{\times}\;2\;{\times}\;4\;[mm^2]$ (DWL) has 2 clamping part and 1 extending part. The size of the new-designed actuator with one piezoelectric body is $5\;{\times}\;6\;{\times}\;9\;[mm^2]$ (DWL). The new-designed inchworm type actuator performed the operation at a cycle (6 steps) of $0.3{\mu}m$ per $33.3{\mu}s$ and a generated force of 0.6N.
