본 논문에서는 Ka-band 위성 중계기용 국부 발진기에 사용하게 될 전압제어 발진기의 EM (Engineering Model)을 비선형 방법으로 설계하였다. 전압제어 발진기의 위상잡음을 개선하기 위하여 공진기로 사용되는 유전체 공진기와 결합하는 마이크로스트립 라인을 high impedance inverter로 구현함으로써 공진회로의 quality factor를 우수하게 유지하여 능동소자에 전달되도록 하였다. 개발된 전압제어 발진기는 0～12V의 제어전압으로 9.7965～9.8032GHz의 발진범위를 갖으며 공급전력은 8V, 17mA을 필요로 한다. 제작된 전압제어 발진기의 위상잡음은 -96.51dB/Hz @10KHz와 -116.5dBc/Hz @100KHz의 특성을 나타내며 출력전력은 7.33dBm을 얻었다.

In this paper, a X band voltage controlled oscillator is proposed. The oscillator uses a transistor as an oscillating element and its oscillating frequencies are controlled by the tuning voltage of varactor diode. Using the circuit simulation tools, the matching circuits between the transistor and varactor diode, its input and output matching circuits, and a feedback circuits are designed. The measured results of the fabricated oscillator show that its oscillation frequencies are from 10.50GHz to 10.88GHz according to the turning voltages of 1V to 18V, its output power levels are about 4.3dBm, and its phase noise is around -43.5dBc/Hz at 100kHz offset frequency of 10.5GHz.

We have investigated the electronic structure of graphite oxide by photoelectron spectroscopy at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory, Korea. The typical sp2 hybridization states found in graphite were also seen in graphite oxide. However, the ${\pi}$ state disappeared near the Fermi level because of bonding between the ${\pi}$ and oxygen-related states originating from graphite oxide, indicating electron transfer from graphite to oxygen and resulting in a downward shift of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) state to higher binding energies. The band gap opening increased to about 1.8 eV, and additional oxygen-related peaks were observed at 8.5 and 27 eV.

The angular dependence of polarization of the A-band emission from RbCl:$Pb^{2+}$ is measured at 13.4 K to determine the symmetry axes of the $Pb^{2+}-v^-_c$ dipoles. The results indicate that these centers posess tetragonal symmetry. This implies that $v^-_c$ is situated in the next-nearest-neighbor (nnn) position to the $Pb^{2+}$ ion. The polarization ratio of the A-band emission measured at various temperatures is found to be independent of the temperature. The temperature independence of polarization confirms that, for the ion, the Jahn-Teller effect reduced by strong spin-orbit interaction does not give rise to thermal depolarization.

Poly [4,7-Di-thiophen-2-yl-benzo(1,2,5)thiadiazole]-alt-1,4-bis(dodecyloxy)-2,5-divinylbenzene (PPVTBT) was synthesized by the Heck coupling reaction between 4,7-Di-thiophen-2-yl-benzo(1,2,5)thiadiazole and 1,4-bis(dodecyloxy)-2,5-divinylbenzene. The maximum absorption and band gap of PPVTBT were 550 nm and 1.74 eV, respectively. The HOMO and LUMO energy level of PPVTBT were -5.24 eV and -3.50 eV, respectively. The photovoltaic device based on the blend of PPVTBT and (6)-1-(3-(methoxycarbonyl)propyl)-{5}-1-phenyl[5,6]-$C_{61}$ (PCBM) (1 : 6 by weight ratio) was fabricated. The efficiency of device was 0.16%.

Widespread distributions of repetitive DNA elements in bacteria genomes are useful for analysis of genomes and should be exploited to differentiate food-borne pathogenic bacteria among and within species. Enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC) sequence has been used for ERIC-PCR genomic fingerprinting to identify and differentiate bacterial strains from various environmental sources. ERIC-PCH genomic fingerprinting was applied to detect and differentiate four major Gram-negative food-borne bacterial pathogens, Esherichia coli, Salmonella, Shigella, and Vibrio. Target DNA fragments of pathogens were amplified by ERIC-PCR reactions. Dendrograms of subsequent PCR fingerprinting patterns for each strain were constructed, through which relative similarity coefficients or genetic distances between different strains were obtained numerically. Numerical comparisons revealed ERIC-PCR genotyping is effective for differentiation of strains among and within species of food-borne bacterial pathogens, showing ERIC-PCR fingerprinting methods can be utilized to differentiate isolates from outbreak and to determine their clonal relationships among outbreaks.

Two high-efficiency and high power power-combing modules were developed using slotline-to-microstrip transition at V-band. Power-combining modules incorporating two MMIC power amplifiers demonstrated combining efficiencies higher than $80\%$(maximum $86\%$) with saturated output power of 22.96 dBm and 22.81 dBm, respectively. The measurement of back-to-back connected combiners demonstrated insertion loss less than 1.2 dB with return loss better than 15 dB around 60 GHz, respectively.

Here, we have studied the effect of water added electrolyte on the photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). It was found that open-circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$) increased and short-circuit current density ($j_{sc}$) decreased with the increase of the amount of added water in the electrolyte of the DSSCs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) study showed that the electrolyte with added water shifted the dye loaded $TiO_2$ conduction band upward that eventually increased $V_{oc}$ of the cells. On the other hand, the upward shift of $TiO_2$ conduction band decreased the driving force for the electron injection from the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of the dye molecules to the conduction band of $TiO_2$ that resulted in decreased $j_{sc}$.

본 연구진에서는 기존에 Ag2S 양자점을 흡광층으로 활용하여 양자점 감응형 태양전지(QDSC)를 제작, 그 성능과 특징을 분석하여 발표한 바 있다. 기존 연구에서 제작된 Ag2S QDSC는 11 mA/cm2의 비교적 높은 광전류와 260 mV의 비교적 낮은 전압으로 인해 1.2%의 광전환효율 성능을 나타내는 것으로 보고되었다. 추후 연구로 진행된 본 결과에서는, 기존에 Single absorber로 사용된 Ag2S의 한계를 보완하기 위해 CdS를 도입하여 co-sensitization을 활용하였다. CdS는 약 2.3 eV의 밴드갭 에너지를 갖는 물질로, 1.1 eV의 밴드갭을 갖는 Ag2S에 비해 흡광 영역은 좁지만 그만큼 전자-정공 재결합을 억제할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한, 전도층으로 사용한 n-type 물질인 ZnO 나노선과의 밴드구조가 매우 적합하게 조화되어, ZnO/CdS/Ag2S 순서로 이종구조를 접합시켰을 때 세 물질의 Conduction band level과 Valence band level이 순차적으로 연결되는 cascade-shaped 밴드구조를 이루게 된다. 빛을 받아 Ag2S와 CdS에서 생성된 전자는 이 cascade 모양의 conduction band를 따라 순차적으로 ZnO로 잘 전달되게 되어, 효율 향상에 큰 도움을 주었다. 이런 장점들로 인해, CdS-Ag2S co-sensitized QDSC는 Ag2S QDSC에 비해 2배나 향상된 효율인 2.4%를 기록하였으며, 이는 IPCE spectrum 측정 등으로 근거가 뒷받침되었다.
