The SBN thin films were deposited at substrate temperature of 300[$^{\circ}C$] on Pt-coated electrode (Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si(100)) using RF sputtering method. The grain and crystallinity of SBN thin films were increased with the increase of annealing temperature. The dielectric constant(150) of SBN thin film was obtained by annealing temperature above 750[$^{\circ}C$]. The voltage dependence of dielectric loss showed a value within 0.01 in voltage ranges of -5~+5[V]. The capacitance characteristics showed a stable value of about 0.7[${\mu}F/cm^2$].

Standard capacitors, as like as Hamon resistor standards, of series connection/parallel connection ratio $10{\mu}F/1000{\mu}F\;and\;100{\mu}F/10000{\mu}F$ were fabricated for calibration of impedance bridges or analyzers with measuring ranges up to 1 F. The calculated correction terms to the ratio of one measured value in series connection to the value in parallel connection were evaluated to be $1.92{\times}10^{-7}$. These capacitors were designed to be used not only as 100:1 capacitance standards but also as single capacitors or decade capacitors with decade values at frequencies up to 1 kHz.

Phase detector techique provides a unique probe to membrane recycling phenomenon by enabling dynamic monitoring of cell membrane capacitance. However, it has inherent errors due to constant changes in measurement environments. The present study analyzed several error sources to develope application criteria of this technique. and the following was found based on a theoretical analysis. The initial phase angle has to be appropriately selected to minimize the error due to perturbation of access and membrane conductances. Excitation frequency is also important to determine the initial phase angle. However. deviation of the phase angle from a predetermined initial value during the measurement period does not affect capacitance estimation to a significant degree. Despite an appropriate initial phase selection an error in scaling factor is expected for a large increase in capacitance during exocytosis. which may be overcome by iteratively correcting the scaling factor over the measurement period. These results will provide a useful guideline in practical application of this technique.

A lab-scale test was carried out to study the reduction of electrical energy consumption in the pulsed corona discharge process for nitrogen oxides removal. The experiment was mainly focused on 1) the activation of pollution removal reactions by chemical additives and 2) the optimization of electrical circuit for the efficient energy transfer from the power supply to the corona reactor. Hydrocarbon chemical additives used in the experiment are thought to be responsible for the enhancement of the NO conversion through the chain reactions of free radicals such as, R, RCO, and RO. Electrical energy consumption per converted NO molecule has a minimum value of 17 eV when pentanol is injected. When ethylene and propylene are injected, 30 eV and 22 eV of electrical energy consumption is required for the conversion of NO molecule respectively. The ratio of the pulse forming capacitance$(C_e)$ to the reactor capacitance$(C_R)$ plays an important role in the energy transfer efficiency to the reactor. Maximum energy transfer efficiency of approximately 72% could be obtained by using the pulse forming capacitance which is 3.4 times larger than the reactor capacitance, and also the maximum NO conversion efficiency was observed with the same condition.

The carbon nanotube/poly-vinylidene fluoride (CNT/PVDF) composite films for the use of electronic devices were fabricated by spray coating method using the CNT/PVDF solution, which was prepared by adding PVDF pellets into the CNT dispersed N-Methyl-2-pyrroli-done (NMP) solution. The CNT/PVDF composite films were peeled off from the glass substrate and were investigated by the scanning electron microscopy, which revealed that the CNTs were uniformly dispersed in the PVDF films and thickness of the films were approximately $20{\mu}m$. The capacitance of the CNT/PVDF films increased dramatically by adding CNTs into the PVDF matrix, and finally saturated approximately 1880 pF. However, the I-V curves didn't show any saturation effect in the CNT concentration range of 0 ~ 0.04 wt%. Therefore we can control the performance of the devices from the CNT/PVDF composite film by adjusting the current level resulted from the CNT concentration with the uniform capacitance value.

$Zr_{0.7}Sn_{0.3}TiO_4$ (ZST) thin films were fabricated by metal-organic decomposition, and their dielectric properties were investigated in order to evaluate their potential use in passive capacitors for rf and analog/mixed signal integrated circuits. The ZST thin film annealed at the temperature of $800^{\circ}C$ showed a dielectric constant of 27.3 and a dielectric loss of 0.011. The capacitor using the ZST film had quadratic and linear voltage coefficient of capacitance (VCC) of -65 ppm/$V^2$ and -35 ppm/V at 100 kHz, respectively. It also exhibited a good temperature coefficient of capacitance (TCC) value of -32 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ at 100 kHz.

Ni-benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid based metal organic frameworks were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method and thermally treated at various temperature. The electrochemical performance of composites was investigated using cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Among all prepared composites, the samples annealed at $250^{\circ}C$ showed the highest capacitance with a low resistance, and high cycle stability. It was possible to obtain the low electrical resistance and high electric conductivity of the electrode by improved microstructure and morphology after the thermal annealing at $250^{\circ}C$. The samples annealed at $250^{\circ}C$ also displayed the maximum specific capacitance with a value of $953Fg^{-1}$ at a current density of $0.66A/g^{-1}$ in 6 M KOH electrolyte. Moreover, a 86.4% of the initial specific capacitance of the composite was maintained after 3,000 times charge-discharge cycle tests. Based on these properties, it can be concluded that the composite could be applied as potential supercapacitor electrode materials.

In this work, open stubs were fabricated on a polyether sulfone (PES) substrate, and their basic radio frequency (RF) characteristics were investigated for application to RF matching components of a flexible monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC). According to the results, an open stub employing coplanar waveguide (OSCPW) on PES exhibited much lower loss than that on silicon substrate. The OSCPW with a length of $500{\mu}m$ on PES showed capacitance values of 0.031 ~ 0.044 pF from 0.5 to 50 GHz. For application to a relatively high-value capacitive matching, an open stub employing a fishbone-type transmission line (OSFTTL) was fabricated on PES, and its characteristics were investigated. The OSFTTL showed much higher capacitance values than the OSCPW due to the high effective permittivity value. Specifically, the OSFTTL on PES showed capacitance values of 0.066 ~ 0.24 pF from 0.5 to 50 GHz, which are higher than those for the open stub on silicon substrate. The above results indicate that the OSCPW and OSFTTL on PES can be effectively used for application to low/high-value capacitive matching components on microwave and millimeter wave flexible MMIC. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this work is the first report of the investigation of RF capacitive matching components on PES substrate.

In recent years, numerous studies have attempted to find and explore the auxiliary brake and the oil pressure type and electrical type are mainly used. However, the model proposed here is to self-excited eddy current brake. The advantage of this is it does not require an external power supply and can be produced to reduce the size than others. This self-eddy current brake consists of RLC circuit so resistance, inductance and capacitance value can be considered a fixed value. But, inductance and resistance value changes depending on the shape, temperature and magnetic alteration. Therefore, in this paper, the focal point is characteristic analysis according to the parameter variations. Also, using this result, this paper explains how to estimate the capacitance.

This paper proposes the State-of-charge (SOC) estimator of a LiPB Battery using the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). EKF can work properly only with an accurate model. Therefore, the high accuracy electrical battery model for EKF state is discussed in this paper, which is focused on high-capacity LiPB batteries. The battery model is extracted from a single cell of LiPB 40Ah, 3.7V. The dynamic behavior of single cell battery is modeled using a bulk capacitance, two series RC networks, and a series resistance. The bulk capacitance voltage represents the Open Circuit Voltage (OCV) of battery and other components represent the transient response of battery voltage. The experimental results show the strong relationship between OCV and SOC without any dependency on the current rates. Therefore, EKF is proposed to work by estimating OCV, and then is converted it to SOC. EKF is tested with the experimental data. To increase the estimation accuracy, EKF is improved with a single dominant varying parameter of bulk capacitance which follows the SOC value. Full region of SOC test is done to verify the effectiveness of EKF algorithm. The test results show the error of estimation can be reduced up to max 5%SOC.
