In this study, organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) using a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) material as an active layer and SiO₂ as a gate insulator were fabricated with varying active layer thicknesses and channel lengths. Further, using a thermal evaporation method in a high-vacuum system, we fabricated a CuPc FET device of the top-contact type and used Au materials for the source and drain electrodes. In order to discuss the channel formation and FET characteristics, we observed the typical current-voltage characteristics and calculated the threshold voltage of the CuPc FET device. We also found that the capacitance reached approximately 97 pF at a negative applied voltage and increased upon the accumulation of carriers at the interface of the metal and the CuPc material. We observed the typical behavior of a FET when used as an n-channel FET. Moreover, we calculated the threshold voltage to be about 15-20 V at V_DS = -80 V.

A new current source inverter (CSl) with dc-side commutation and load-side energy recovery circuit is proposed with analysis and explanation of the circuit operation. Proposed inverter overcomes the most drawbacks of the conventional CSI's - high device voltage stress, low operating frequency range, large commutation capacitance, etc. - by employing simultaneous recovery and commutation concept. The new CSI employs only one commutation capacitor and it can be built with considerably low cost. The commutation energies are temporarily stored into a large dc capacitor and recovered to the load side, thus the device voltage stress is low and the efficiency is high in the proposed inverter. Computer simulation results are given at the steady state, and a guideline determining the commutation circuit is given.

전력 전자 시스템 내의 전도성 노이즈는 반도체 스위칭 소자의 고속 동작에 큰 영향을 받는다. 특히 실리콘 카바이드 (SiC) 등의 신소재 반도체 소자 (wide band-gap device, WBG device) 특유의 고속 dv/dt 특성이 전력전자모듈 (power electronics module, PEM) 내의 기생 용량 (parasitic capacitance)에 인가될 경우 상당한 전도성 노이즈의 원인이 되므로 이를 해결할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 유전율이 낮은 재료를 PEM 내부에 사용함으로써 기생 용량을 줄이고, 따라서 공통 모드 전류의 발생 또한 최소화할 수 있는 설계를 제안한다. 제안된 PEM 설계 기법은 외부 필터를 필요로 하지 않으며, PEM 내의 스위칭 소자-방열 소자간 열저항 (thermal resistance)를 증가시키지 않으면서도 기생 용량을 최소화하여 노이즈를 억제한다. 제안된 방법으로 제작된 PEM을 1 kW 출력 100 kHz 스위칭 주파수의 강압형 dc-dc 컨버터에 적용하여 공통모드 전도성 전류가 줄어듬을 증명하였다.

In this paper, the SPICE 2.G6 JFET subroutine and other related subroutines are modified for circuit simulation of GaAs MESFET IC's. The hyperbolic tangent model is used for the drain current-voltage characteristics of GaAs MESFET's and derived channel-conductance and drain-conductance model from the above current model are implemented into small-signal model of GaAs MESFET's. And, device capacitance model which consider after-pinch-off state are modified, and device charge model for SPICE 2G.6 are proposed. The result of modification is shown to be suitable for GaAs circuit simulator, showing good agreement with experimetal results. Forthermore the DC convergence of this paper is better than that of SPICE 2.G JFET subroutine. GaAs MESFET model in this paper is applied for both depletion mode GaAs MESFET and enhancement-mode GaAs MESFET without difficulty.

The next-generation AlGaN/GaN HEMT power devices need higher power at higher frequencies. To know the device characteristics, the simulation of those devices are made. This paper presents a simulation study on the DC and RF characteristics of AlGaN/GaN HEMT power devices. According to the reduction of gate length from $2.0{\mu}m$ to $0.1{\mu}m$, the simulation results show that the drain current at zero gate voltage increases, the gate capacitance decreases, and the maximum transconductance increases, and thus the cutoff frequency and the maximum oscillation frequency increase. The maximum oscillation frequency maintains higher than the cutoff frequency, which means that the devices are useful for power devices at very high frequencies.

This paper presents an electrical feature analysis of hysteresis curves in memristor differential and intergral control circuit.

This paper proposes the boost input type resonant power supply for driving the magnetron device of the high-capacity microwave oven. Circuit topology of the proposed power supply is the boost input type resonant converter which uses the resonance between transformer leakage inductance and resonance capacitance. Proposed power supply obtains high power factor more than 98% through continuous current mode pulse width modulation. To verify the validity of the proposed power supply, operation principle in the steady state is analyzed and experimental results are presented.

This paper proposes a new structure of polycrystalline silicon(poly-Si) thin film transistor(TFT) having a thick gate-oxide below the gate edge. The new structure is fabricated by the gate re-oxidation in wet ambient. It is shown that the thick gate-oxide below the gate edge is effective in reducing the leakage current and the gate-drain overlap capacitance. We have simulated this device by using the SSUPREM4 process simulator and the SPISCES-2B device simulator. As a simulation result it is found that the new structure provides a low tentage current less than 0.2 pA and achieves a on/off ratio as high as $5{\times}10^7$.
