In this paper, we proposed the grating parallel plate waveguide structure for converting a linearly polarized wave to a circularly polarized wave. For the design of the polarizer, the moment method and Floquet's theorem are applied under two assumptions that the incident wave is a plane wave and the structure is infinitely periodic. In order for the more precise design, we performed the near-field analysis for the finite polarizer structure using MATLAB. By comparing with the measured results obtained by the near-field arrangement, we verified the correctness of our near-field analysis. By taking the ideal assumptions considered in the initial design procedure into account, newly designed modified dimensions for the polarizer was suggested which give improved performance.

본 논문에서는 운동시간과 칼로리 소모량, 운동시신체운동정도를 3축가속도 센서를 이용하여 측정하는 건강밴드를 설계 하였다. 건강관리를 위해 하는 운동은 많은 양의 운동을 하는 것 보다 규칙성 건강을 관리를 해야 한다. 주거환경의 변화가 친환경적으로 되는 지금 체육시설을 이용하지 않고 쉽게 집 주변에서 운동을 원하는 사람이 많아지고 있기 때문에 건강밴드를 설계하여 보다 쉽게 규칙성 있게 도와주는 운동 보조 시스템을 설계 하여 각 운동별로 센서의 데이터를 측정하였다. 데이터론 측정한 결과 걷기, 조깅, 줄넘기의 3축가속도 센서의 측정간은 걷기에서는 X축의 센서의 변화량이 다른 축의 변화보다 변화량이 많이 심하였고 조깅의 경우 X, Y, Z축의 변화량이 전체적으로 걷기보다 변화가 많았다. 줄넘기에서는 걷기, 조깅과는 다르게 신체의 움직임이 상하로 많이 있는 운동이기 때문에 Y, Z축의 변화량이 X축의 변화량 보다 많이 측정되었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구의 결과는 운동별 신체의 사용량 측정에 이용이 가능하다.

This study was focused on discriminating the molecular sexes of red deer and elk by duplex polymerase chain reaction(PCR) using two primer sets. Sex differentiation of mammals is primarily dependent on the presence or absence of sex determining region Y(SRY) gene encoded on Y chromosome which plays a key role for male development. Zinc finger X-Y(ZFX-ZFY) gene, one of X-Y homology gene group was found on X- and Y- chromosomes, respectively. At first, the nucleotide sequences were characterized for the intron 9 flanking region of ZFX-ZFY genes. The intron 9 of ZFX and ZFY is 529-bp and 665-bp in length, respectively. A transposable element sequence similar to bovine SINE element Bov-tA was detected only in ZFY gene of Cervidae. Sexing analysis was conducted by duplex PCR assay for amplification of SRY and ZFX-ZFY genes. Two differentially amplified patterns were found: one for females has a common band amplified only from ZFX as a template, and another for males had three bands(a common ZFX and two male-specific ZFY and SRY). On the separate tests using each gene, the results was identical to those from duplex PCR assay. Moreover, the results from PCR assays provide also identical information to phenotypic investigation of individuals of red deer, elk as well as their hybridized progenies collected from two isolated farms. These results suggest that it may be a rapid and precise method for determining the sexes by duplex PCR amplification using Y-chromosome specific SRY and X- and Y- homologous ZFX-ZFY genes showing sexual dimorphism in red deer and elk without any other controls.

As the occurrences of flash floods have increased due to climate change, faster and more accurate precipitation observation using X-band radar has become important. Therefore, the Ministry of Environment installed two dual-pol X-band radars at Samcheok and Uljin. The radar data used in this study were obtained from two different elevation angles and composed to reduce the shielding effect. To obtain quantitative rainfall, quality control (QC), K_DP retrieval, and Hybrid Surface Rainfall (HSR) methods were sequentially applied. To improve the accuracy of the quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) of the X-band radar, we retrieved parameters for the relationship between rainfall rate and specific differential phase, which is commonly called the R-K_DP relationship; hence, an empirical approach was developed using multiple rain gauges for those two radars. The newly suggested relationship, R = 27.4K^0.81_DP, slightly increased the correlation coefficient by 1% more than the relationship suggested by the previous study. The root mean square error significantly decreased from 3.88 mm/hr to 3.68 mm/hr, and the bias of the estimated precipitation also decreased from -1.72 mm/hr to -0.92 mm/hr for overall cases, showing the improvement of the new method.

The valence band maximum (VBM) and conduction band minimum (CBM) of Al-doped GaInAsSb alloys substrated on GaSb are calculated by using an analytic approximation based on the tight binding method. The relative positions of the VBM and CBM between Al-GaInASSb and GaSb determine band alignement type, valence band offset (VBO) and conductin band offset (CBO) for the heterojunctions. In this study, aluminium doping is assumed to be substituted in the cation site and limited up to 20 % because it can easily oxidize and degrade materials. It is found that the Al-doped alloys exhibit type-II band alignments over the entire composition range and make the band gaps increase, whereas the VBO and CBO decrease. The decreasing rate of VBO is higher than that of CBO, which implies the Al components play a decisive role in controlling electrons at the interface. The Al-dopled GaInAsSb alloy has a direct band gap induced by $E({\Gamma})$ with a considerable distance from the E(L) and E(X), however, $E({\Gamma})$ approaches to E(L) and E(X) in the high Sb concentration (Sb > 0.7-0.8) which might affect the electron mobility and degrade the optical quality.

음극재에 사용되는 타이타니아 나노튜브($TiO_2$ nanotubes)는 높은 종횡비를 가지고 있으며, 기계적인 강도가 우수하고 화학적인 안정성이 높다. 그러나 낮은 전기전도도와 상대적으로 넓은 밴드갭(bandgap)은 다양한 활용 분야에 이 물질이 활용되는 것을 제한하고 있는 상황이다. 전기 화학적 분야에서 광화학 반응 또는 과전압에서 밴드갭을 줄이기 위한 타이타니아 나노튜브의 나노 구조 변형에 대한 많은 연구가 있어왔다. 본 연구에서는 산화 몰리브덴(Molybdenum oxide)을 촉매로 사용하여 타이타니아 나노튜브에 전기충격법을 이용하여 도핑했다. 생성된 타이타니아 나노튜브를 $450^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 30분 동안 가열하여 타이타니아 나노구조를 아나타제(anatase) 구조로 변형켰다. 타이타니아 나노튜브의 구조적인 변화를 scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS) 등을 통해 측정했고 UV-Visiblespectroscopy를 통해 도핑된 타이타니아 나노튜브의 밴드갭을 측정하였다. 몰리브덴이 도핑된 타이타니아 나노튜브는 기존의 타이타니아 나노튜브가 가지는 밴드갭인 3.0 ~ 3.2eV 범위보다 더 낮아진 2.6 ~ 2.8eV의 범위를 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 몰리브덴이 도핑된 타이타니아 나노튜브는 다양한 광촉매 분야에 적용될 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

실리콘 다층박막 태양전지를 위한 초고효율 실리콘 양자점 박막을 연구하기 위해 Silicon target과 Carbon target을 동시에 스퍼터하여 Silicon Carbide 박막을 증착하였다. Silicon Carbide 박막의 조성비는 target에 인가되는 RF Power를 조절하여 Auger Electro Spectroscopy를 사용하여 Si, C, O, N원소의 양을 정량화하여 측정하였다. Si Power를 200W에 고정하고, C Power를 0W에서 400W까지 변화시킬 때, $Si_{1-x}$ $C_x$ 박막에서 조성비 x는 0 ~ 0.43 범위였다. 이 박막을 증착 한 후에 질소 분위기에서 600 ~ $1000^{\circ}C$ 온도로 열처리를 진행하였다. High resolution TEM과 Raman 분석을 통해, 박막의 열처리 후 $Si_{1-x}$ $C_x$ 박막 내에 실리콘 양자점이 형성되었음을 관찰할 수 있었고, 2 ~ 10 nm 의 크기를 가지는 것으로 확인할 수 있었다. 이 실리콘 양자점을 포함한 $Si_{1-x}$ $C_x$ 박막을 적층하여 UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy, FTIR및 PL와 같은 측정을 통해 광학적 에너지 밴드갭의 변화와 그에 따른 특성을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 수치 해석 방법을 이용하여 $In_{x}Ga_{1-x}N/GaN$ (x=0.06~0.1) 양자우물 구조의 에너지 준위를 계산하였다. InGaN 벌크 샘플(bulk sample)의 PL(photoluminescence) 데이터로부터 bowing factor를 결정한 후 InGaN의 유효 에너지 밴드갭을 계산하였고, InGaN/GaN 양자우물 구조의 전도대와 가전자대의 오프셋(offset)을 0.67/0.33으로 정하였다. 다음으로, 양자화 효과에 의한 에너지 변위와 압전장(piezoelectric field)을 제외한 양축 압축 변형(biaxial compressive strain)에 의한 에너지 변위를 고려하여 기저준위 전자와 heavy hole(le-1hh)간의 천이 에너지를 계산하였다. 계산된 천이 에너지는 PL로 측정한 천이 에너지에 비해 약 9~15 meV 크게 관찰되었는데, 이것은 InGaN/GaN 양자우물 계면에 발생하는 압전장 때문인 것으로 생각된다.

A multi-band, compact, and complex vehicle roof antenna has become important in terms of car exterior design and multi-functions which include Radio, DAB/DMB, SXM, GNSS, Telematics, and V2X. In this paper, we propose a compact multi-band V2X pole-type roof antenna. Using impedance change characteristic, a single pole antenna which has multiband such as radio, DAB/DMB, telematics, and V2X band is proposed. With two patch antennas for GNSS and SXM, the dimension of a multiband roof antenna is 131x63x37mm only.

To effectively remove chaff echoes, which are often misidentified as precipitation echoes on weather radars, this study examines the relationship between the radar reflectivity and each of dual polarimetric parameters. The dual polarimetric parameters are collected only for the echo areas identified as chaff echoes on the NIMR X-band dual polarization radar. Overall, the polarimetric parameters (i.e., reflectivity, differential reflectivity, cross correlation coefficient, standard deviation of differential reflectivity and specific differential phase) for chaff echoes have a wider range of values than those for precipitation echoes and the chaff filaments tend to be horizontally oriented to radar beams. There appears to be a considerable overlap in the cross correlation coefficient range of chaff and precipitation echoes since some precipitation echoes have cross correlation coefficient lower than 0.8. Therefore, although the cross correlation coefficient is known to be a good variable in identifying and separating chaff echoes from precipitation echoes, it is suggested that additional care should be taken when using the cross correlation coefficient solely in removing chaff echoes.
