트랜지언트 전자소자는 전해질 수용액이나 체내와 같은 거친 환경에서도 작동이 가능하며 동작 이후 가수분해되어 스스로 제거되기 때문에 기존의 전자소자를 대체하여 의료 목적의 체내 삽입 소자 등 다양한 연구 영역에서 활용되고 있다. 또한 물과 효소만으로 제거가 가능한 트랜지언트 전자소자는 최근 대두되고 있는 전자 쓰레기와 환경 오염 문제를 해결할 수 있는 신개념 그린 테크놀로지로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 하지만, 트랜지언트 전자소자의 작동 환경인 수용액과 체내는 지속적은 물 침투를 통해 소자 내 핵심 부품을 열화시킨다. 이러한 환경 내 안정한 동작을 위하여 수동적 보호 기능을 가진 피막이 소자 외부를 감싸는 봉지막 전략이 도입되었다. 본 논문에서는 트랜지언트 전자소자의 등장 배경과 분해 거동을 포함한 최근 연구 동향과 작동 환경 내 물 침투를 방지하여 동작 신뢰도를 향상시킬 수 있는 봉지막 전략에 관하여 정리하였다.

The power conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells has remarkably increased from 3.81% to 22.1% in the past 6 years. Perovskite solar cells, which are based on the perovskite crystal structure, are fabricated using organic-inorganic hybrid materials. The advantages of these solar cells are their low cost and simple fabrication procedure. Also, they have a band gap of about 1.6 eV and effectively absorb light in the visible region. For the commercialization of perovskite solar cells in the field of photovoltaics, the issue of their long term stability cannot be overlooked. Although the development of perovskite solar cells is unprecedented, their main drawback is the degradation of the perovskite structure by moisture. This degradation is accelerated by exposure to UV light, temperature, and external bias. This paper reviews the aforesaid reasons for perovskite solar cell degradation. We also discuss the research directions that can lead to the development of perovskite solar cells with high stability.

This paper introduces a new U.S. ultra-wideband(UWB: 3.1~10.6 GHz) 1:2 power divider based on a single section Wilkinson type configuration. The divider provides very flat in-band power splitting, high isolation, low insertion loss, sharp roll-off bandpass filtering, and DC blocking characteristics. The circuit consists of a $\lambda$/4 Y resonator, three capacitively coupled $\lambda$/2 short-circuited lines, and a resistor between the two output ports. The circuit structure was simulated with ADS and HFSS, and realized with low-temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) green tape, which has a dielectric constant of 7.8. $|S_{11}|$ better than 10 dB, $|S_{21}|$ and $|S_{31}|$ less than 3.2 dB, with both $|S_{22}|$ and $|S_{32}|$ measured as better than 12 dB for the whole UWB band. Measurement results agree closely with HFSS simulation results. The power divider has a compact size of $4\times9\times0.6mm^3$.

This paper proposes a high efficiency three-phase cascaded phase shifted H-bridge multi-level inverter without DC/DC converters for grid-tied multi string photovoltaic (PV) applications. The cascaded H-bridge topology is suitable for PV applications since each PV module can act as a separate DC source for each cascaded H-bridge module. The proposed phase shifted H-bridge multi-level topology offers advantages such as operation at a lower switching frequency and a lower current ripple when compared to conventional two level topologies. It is also shown that low ripple sinusoidal current waveforms are generated with a unity power factor. The control algorithm permits the independent control of each DC link voltage with a maximum power point for each string of PV modules. The use of the controller area network (CAN) communication protocol for H-bridge multi-level inverters, along with localized PWM generation and PV voltage regulation are implemented. It is also shown that the expansion and modularization capabilities of the H-bridge modules are improved since the individual inverter modules operate more independently. The proposed topology is implemented for a three phase 240kW multi-level PV power conditioning system (PCS) which has 40kW H-bridge modules. The experimental results show that the proposed topology has good performance.

색각이상자는 색을 인지하는 원추세포의 이상으로 인해 특정 색의 조합을 분별하는데 어려움을 겪는다. 이를 돕기 위해 스마트폰에는 색각이상자를 위한 색 보정 기능이 내장되어 있지만, 모니터에는 이러한 기능이 제공되고 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 모니터에 내장된 색 조절 기능을 이용하는 색 보정 기법을 제안하고, 이를 모니터에 구현하였다. 제안하는 색 보정 기법은 색각이상자의 색 인지 능력을 HSV 색 공간에서 분석한 것을 기반으로 색각이상의 종류와 강도에 따라 색조와 채도를 보정한다. 색각이상자들을 대상으로 진행한 성능 평가 결과는 제안하는 시스템이 색각이상자가 구분하기 어려운 색을 효과적으로 구분 가능하도록 변환함을 보여준다.

In this paper, two new circuit structures for European and U.S. ultra-wide band(UWB) bandpass filters(BPFs) with sharp roll-off characteristics are introduced. We show first that the ultra-wide bandpass property is obtained from a $\lambda$/4 open T resonator with a capacitively coupled $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line, which provides two attenuation poles at lower and upper cutoff frequencies. Then, two identical capacitively coupled input/output lines, which can be $\lambda$/4-length open ends or $\lambda$/2-length short ends, with the T-resonator, are adopted to suppress lower and higher frequency components outside of the pass band. There is coupling between the input and output lines providing two additional transmission zeros in the lower and upper transition bands of the filter. Since the coupling between the T-resonator with the $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line and the input/output lines limits the bandwidth of the filter to the European UWB band, both the $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line and the input/output lines are inserted between the two stacked T-resonators for the U.S. UWB band. The filter structures are simulated with ADS and HFSS and realized with low-temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) green tape which has the dielectric constant of 7.8. Measurement results agree well with HFSS simulation results.

본 논문에서는 전자파를 이용하여 인체 내 암 조직을 찾아내기 위해 역산란 방법인 BIM(Born Iterative Method)에 적용되는 순방향 해석 알고리즘을 MoM(Method of Moment)으로 구현하였다. 특히 유방암의 전자파 산란 해석을 위해 2차원 유방 단면 구조를 이용하였다. 이 단면 구조를 적분방정식과 2차원 그린함수를 이용하여 정식화한 후 MoM을 적용하여 해석하고 산란 전장을 구하였다. 또한, 유방암 측정 실험 장치를 통해 얻은 모사구조에 대한 측정값과 MoM을 이용한 수치해석 계산 값을 비교하여 결과를 분석하였다.

We have fabricated SOI CMOS active pixel image sensor with the pinned photodiode on handle wafer in order to reduce dark currents and improve spectral response. The structure of the active pixel image sensor is 4 transistors APS which consists of a reset and source follower transistor on seed wafer, and is comprised of the photodiode, transfer gate, and floating diffusion on handle wafer. The source of dark current caused by the interface traps located on the surface of a photodiode is able to be eliminated, as we apply the pinned photodiode. The source of dark currents between shallow trench isolation and the depletion region of a photodiode can be also eliminated by the planner process of the hybrid bulk/SOI structure. The photodiode could be optimized for better spectral response because the process of a photodiode on handle wafer is independent of that of transistors on seed wafer. The dark current was about 6 pA at 3.3 V of floating diffusion voltage in the case of transfer gate TX = 0 V and TX=3.3 V, respectively. The spectral response of the pinned photodiode was observed flat in the wavelength range from green to red.

파일롯트 램프와 숫자표시를 목적으로 국내에서 처음으로 화합물반도체인 갈륨 인을 사용해서 발광다이오드를 만들었다. 이같이 만든 다이오드는 밝고 선명한 붉은 빛을 냈으며 발광하는데 필요한 순방향 바이아스 전류는 5mA 이하였다. 다이오드의 p-n 접합면은 n형 GaP 단결정 기판에 liquid phase epitaxy방법으로 성장시켰고 이때의 Ga 용액의 온도는 약 1300°K정도를 유지했다. 이렇게 하여 제조된 p-n 접합체에 wire bonding으로 ohmic contact시켜 다이오드를 제조했다. 칼륨인 발광다이오드는 매우 적은 전류로 발광되는 장점과 성장 반웅시 질소를 불순물로 doping시키면 녹색으로 발광되는 장점을 갖고 있으므로 앞으로 양산화의 전망이 매우 밝다.

In this paper, high speed IC package-to-package interconnections are modeled as lossless multiconductor transmission lines operating in the TEM mode. And, three mathematical algorithms for computing electrical parameters of the lossless multiconductor transmission lines are described. A semi-analytic Green's function method is used in computing per unit length capacitance and inductance matrices, a matrix square root algorithm based on the QR algorithm is used in computing a characteristic impedance matrix, and a matrix algorithm based on the theory of M-matrix is used in computing a diagonally matched load impedance matrix. These algorithms are implemented in a computer program DIME (DIagonally Matched Load Impedance Extractor) which computes electrical parameters of the lossless multiconductor transmission lines. Also, to illustrate the concept of design database for high speed IC package-to-package interconnection, a database for the multi conductor strip transmission lines system is constructed. This database is constructed with a sufficiently small number of nodes using the multi-dimensional cubic spline interpolation algorithm. The maximum interpolation error for diagonally matched load impedance matrix extraction from the database is 1.3 %.
