We designed capacitance sensor in order to examine characteristics of W/O type emulsified fuel, so it concluded the following conclusions. The capacitance value of emulsified fuel, using with capacitance sensor, increases as water content increases due to the coalescence. When surfactant increases, the capacitance value decreases, the condition of W/O type emulsified fuel was maintained stably. There was revealed the capacitance value difference of W/O type emulsified fuel in in according to water content. We checked the phase separation of emulsified fuel with the capacitance value difference. The surfactant(HLB=5.4) had better stable condition than surfactant(HLB=4.3). Also, we confirmed that two mixture surfactants were better than one surfactant.

본 논문에서는 매우 작은 절대 값을 갖는 펨토 패럿 단위의 커패시턴스를 측정 할 수 있는 비율형 커패시턴스 측정 회로를 제안하였다. 제안한 측정 회로는 스위치 커패시터 적분기와 비교기 그리고 스위치를 제어하는 논리 회로와 카운터로 구성되어 있으며, 측정하고자 하는 커패시턴스와 이미 값이 알려진 온-칩 커패시터간의 비율을 측정하고 그 값을 디지털 신호로 출력한다. 그리고 이 비율 값을 통해 오차가 상당부분 제거된 펨토 패럿 단위의 커패시턴스를 구해낼 수 있다. 제안한 커패시턴스 측정 회로는 표준 CMOS $0.18{\mu}m$ 공정을 사용하여 설계되었으며, HSpice 시뮬레이션에서 5fF 이하의 아주 작은 커패시턴스를 오차율 ${\pm}0.3%$ 이내에서 측정이 가능함을 보였다.

Today, the obstacle detection system has massive size and restrictive detection range. To solve these problems, this paper proposes the capacitance variation detector using the variated capacitance value as a result of the obstacle approaching. If obstacle approaches, the capacitance value of capacitance sensor is increased and the operating frequency of oscillator is decreased. Then this changed frequency appears to the output of the mixer that operate down conversion. The capacitance variation detector is produced by Hynix$0.35{\mu}$ CMOS process. In experiment result, the frequency of final output is 6.81 MHz at no obstacle and 31.45 MHz at approaching obstacle. In conclusion, proposed capacitance variation detector has small size, low power consumption and easiness to set up anywhere. So it is expected to substitute the obstacle detector.

In this paper we developed density measurement equipment for Asphalt Pavement based on the electromagnetic capacitance. This kind of Non-Nuclear Density Gauges technology and products is used or studied in USA, Finland, Sweden as standardization of authorized method for pavement density measurement. Effective permitivity of pavement asphalt is characterized in electromagnetic capacitance by the asphalt material, mixed ratio, and harden grade of pavement asphalt. We can get a density value of asphalt by replacing value of electromagnetic capacitance with standard density value and characteristic transformation curve. We are conformed that measurement data according to temperature, humidity, and real field asphalt of our density measurement equipment can be a precise value.

The usage of textile-based sensors has increased due to their many advantages (compared to IT sensors) when applied to body assessment and comfort. Textile-based sensors have different detecting factors such as pressure, voltage, current and capacitance to investigate the characteristics. In this study, textile-based sensor fabrics with sheath-core type conductive yarns were produced and the relationship between capacitance changes and applied load was investigated. The physical and electric properties of textile-based sensor fabrics were also investigated under various laminating conditions. A textile based pressure sensor that uses a sheath-core conductive yarn to ensure the stability of the pressure sensor in the textile-based sensor (the physical structure of the reaction characteristic of the capacitance) is important for the stability of the initial value of the initial capacitance value outside the characteristic of the textile structural environment. In addition, a textile based sensor is displaced relative to the initial value of the capacitance change according to pressure changes in the capacitance value of the sensor due to the fineness of the high risk of noise generation. Changing the physical structure of the fabric through the sensor characteristic of the pressure sensor via the noise generating element of laminating (temperature, humidity, and static electricity) to cut off the voltage output element to improve the data reliability could be secured.

We compared and analyzed ASER (Accelerated Soft Error Rate) for cell structures and metal plate capacitance in the fabricated 16M SRAM. Application of the BNW (Buried NWELL) lowered the ASER value compared to the normal well structure. By applying the metal plate capacitor with the BNW, the lowest ASER value can be obtained. The thinner oxide thickness of the metal plate capacitor provides higher capacitance and lower ASER value. The ASER is improved from 2200 FIT to 1000 FIT after sole application of the BNW. However, it is dramatically improved to 15 FIT once the metal plate capacitor is additionally applied.

This paper presents a simple method for determining the minimum value of capacitance required for initiating self excitation in three-phase self-excited induction generator. Based on the steady-state equivalent circuit model, this paper presents simple and direct method to find the minimum capacitance requirement under R-L load. Using the loop impedance and nodal admittance. the minimum capacitance is determined by self excitation condition. These computed values can be used to predict practically the minimum value of the terminal voltage required for self-excitation. To maintain a constant terminal voltage, a method for determining the frequency, terminal capacitance, and exciting reactance is also described.

The effects of oleic acid, propylene glycol and 5% (w/w) oleic acid in propylene glycol on the electrical properties of hairless mouse skin were studied and the results were compared. The complex electrical impedance was measured as a function of frequency, and resistance and capacitance were determined from the Nyquist plot. Immediately after the treatment with oleic acid, resistance was 145% of the pretreatment value. However it decreased with time and, after 20 hours, it was about 25% of its pretreatment value. Capacitance increased; immediately after the treatment, it was about 125% of pretreatment value and it seemed to increase slowly with time. When the skin was treated with propylene glycol, resistance decreased about 5O% and capacitance increased about 65%. Similar results were observed when the skin was treated with 5% (w/w) oleic acid in propylene glycol, except that the magnitude of resistance drop was much larger. Oleic acid acted synergistically with propylene glycol. Together with the flux data in the literature, the results obtained in this work indicate that electrical resistance is closely related to the permeability of drug molecules through the skin. The results are discussed in terms of the mechanism of action of these penetration enhancers. Overall, this work provided further mechanistic insight into the role of SC lipids in skin resistance and capacitance.

The effect of Azone and ethanol on the electrical properties of human and hairless mouse skin was studied and the results were compared. The complex electrical impedance was measured as a function of frequency, and resistance and capacitance were determined from Nyquist plot. After the treatment of human-heat separated epidermis with Azone, contrary to the expectation, resistance increased about 60% and it did not change with time. Capacitance also increased; immediately after the treatment, it was about 110% of pretreatment value and it increased further with time. On the other hand, when hairless mouse skin was treated with Azone, marked changes occured; resistance fell almost to the value of bathing medium itself and capacitance increased to about 200% of its pretreatment value. Similar result were obtained when hairless mouse skin was treated with 100% ethanol. The results suggest that there are differences in the strength of barrier properties of stratum corneum (SC) between human and hairless mouse skin. Overall, the results provide further mechanistic insight into ion conduction through the skin and into the role of SC lipids in skin capacitance.

논문에서는 원통형 및 평판형 반응기에 20 kV의 사각파형 펄스전원을 인가하여 대기압 절연막 방전 플라즈마 반응기의 동작특성을 관찰하였다. 전류-전압파형과 하전량-전압곡선을 관찰한 결과 반응기의 정전용량 크기에 따라서 최적의 운전효율을 갖는 최적운전주파수 $f_0$가 $f_0\proptoexp(-C)$의 관계를 갖고 있음을 알았다. 이 관계를 이용하여 반응기에서 소실되는 소모전력을 구하였다. 반응기의 소모전력은 반응기의 구조와 전극의 유전물질의 종류 등의 함수인 반응기 정전용량 값에 따라서 변화하였으며 반응기의 특정한 정전용량 값에서 최대값을 가졌다. 이 정전용량 값을 이용하여 최적효율을 갖는 DBD 반응기를 설계할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
