Recently, the study on bearingless motors which integrate both motor and magnetic bearing function in one stator is very active, as many machines have high rotational speed, high precision, smaller size and lighter weight. In this paper, we propose a novel rotary actuator including function of axial bearing using Lorentz force as a preceding research for development of a bearingless motor. As using Lorentz force, this type has some merits such as the linearity of control force, freedom from flux saturation and high efficiency unlike conventional rotary actuators using a reluctance force. This type is cotrolled independently in levitation and rotational directions respectively. It shows by mathematical expression of levitation force and torque in the proposed rotary actuator. And also, the levitation force is generated by magnetic interaction between the magnetic materials and the rotational torque is generated by Lorentz force. Finally. for verification of this proposed system, a prototype is made and some experiments will be performed in the near future.

We fabricated gamma radiation detector using high resistive p-Cd$_{80}$Zn$_{20}$Te grown by high pressure bridgman method and forming au thin film electrode by chemically electroless deposition method. The device of Au/Cd$_{80}$Zn$_{20}$Te/Au is a typical MIM structure. The characteristic of current-voltage showed good linearity to 3kV/cm but it depend on the square of electric field over 3kV/cm. As the results of rutherford backscattering spectroscope(RBS) and auger spectroscope on the Au/Cd$_{80}$Zn$_{20}$Te, Au penetrated to the surface of Cd$_{80}$Zn$_{20}$Te detector absorbed slightly high energy radiation like a few hundred keV and showed good performance to detect low energy gamma ray.mma ray.

The proposed method for an effective assay of Cd, Cr and Pb in several polymer samples has been validated. The determination was carried out using ICP-OES after a high pressure asher (HPA) digestion at pressure and temperatures up to 13 MPa and $320^{\circ}C$, respectively. Polymer based materials were totally oxidized with nitric acid in a HPA chamber and determined by ICP-OES. Validation parameters such as linearity, matrix effect, limit of dectection (LOD), limit of quantitation (LOQ), accuracy and precision (repeatibility, intermediate precision and reproducibility) were assessed. The LOD and LOQ in the sample were ranged from 0.98 to 1.18 mg $kg^{-1}$ and 2.93 to 3.55 mg $kg^{-1}$, respectively, relying on the analyte. The proposed method had a good accuracy and precision for repeatability, intermediate precision with respect to days and analysts and reproducibility expressed as inter-laboratory study. The developed method was simple to use, suitable and applicable to various kinds of polymers.

This paper introduces a Lorentz force type four-pole self-bearing motor, where the new pole arrangement of a stator is intended to function both as a synchronous PM motor and as a magnetic bearing. The Lorentz force type has some good points such as linearity of control force, freedom from flux saturation, and high efficiency unlike conventional self-bearing motors. Mathematical expressions of torque and radial force are derived to show that they can be separately controlled regardless of rotational speed and time. To verify the proposed theory, a prototype is made, where a ring-shape outer is actively controlled in two radial directions while the other motions are passively stable supposing the radial stability. Through some experiments, it is shown that the proposed scheme can provide high capability and feasibility for a small high-speed self-bearing motor.

Polyimide thin films were cured locally using MEMS microhotplates. The polyimide locally cured at temperature over 350$^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour was fully cured. There was no significant difference between polyimide thin films cured in a conventional convection oven and those cured locally on MEMS microhotplates. The locally cured polyimide humidity sensor showed a linearity of 0.9995, a sensitivity of 0.77 pF/%RH, a hysteresis of 0.6 %RH, and a response time of 3s. These results indicate that the locally-cured polyimide films may be used as dielectric material of high speed, highsensitivity humidity sensors.

High temperature micro pressure sensors were fabricated by polycrystalline (poly) 3C-SiC piezoresistors formed by oxidized SOI substrates with APCVD. These have been designed by bulk micromachining below $1{\times}1mm^2$ diaphragm and Si membrane $20{\mu}m$ thick. The pressure sensitivity of fabricated pressure sensor was 0.1 mV/Vbar. The non-linearity of sensor was ${\pm}0.44%$ FS and the hysteresis was 0.61% FS.TCS of pressure sensor was -1867 ppm/$^{\circ}C$, its TCR was -792 ppm/$^{\circ}C$, and TCGF to 5 bar was -1042 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ from 25 to $400^{\circ}C$.

A novel fiber-optic sensor system is suggested in which fiber Bragg grating sensors are demodulated by a wavelength-sweeping fiber laser source and a spectrometer. The spectrometer consists of a diffraction grating and a 512-pixel photo-diode array. The reflected Bragg wavelength information is transformed into spatial intensity distribution on the photo-diode array. The peak locations linearly correspond to the Bragg wavelengths, regardless of the nonlinearities in the wavelength tuning mechanism of the fiber laser. The high power density of the fiber laser enables obtaining high signal-to-noise ratio outputs. The improved demodulation characteristics were experimentally demonstrated with a fiber Bragg grating sensor array with 5 gratings. The sensor outputs were in much more linear fashion compared with the conventional tunable band-pass filter demodulation. Also it showed advantages in signal processing, due to the high level of photo-diode array signals, over the broadband light source system, especially in measurement of fast varying dynamic physical quantities.

Isovitexin, a marker compound with various pharmacological activities, in Lespedeza cuneata, was analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with UV (HPLC/UV). There are no previous reports on using L. cuneata as the source material for the quantification of isovitexin. In this study, we developed an optimized method using HPLC-UV analysis, which was validated using various parameters. Our method demonstrated high specificity, and good separation of the chromatographic peak was achieved. Parameters such as linearity (r2≥0.9997), precision, and accuracy indicated that our proposed analytical method had good reliability and sensitivity. These results demonstrate the utility and convenience of our method for rapidly quantifying isovitexin in L. cuneata extracts.

In this paper, a low noise amplifier having high gain and low noise by using input and inter stage matching circuits has been designed. A current-reused two-stage common-source topology is adopted, which can obtain high gain and low power consumption. Deterioration of noise characteristics according to the source inductive degeneration matching is compensated by adopting additional matching circuits. Moreover trade-offs among noise, gain, linearity, impedance matching, and power dissipation have been considered. In this design, 0.18-mm CMOS process is employed for the simulation. The simulated results show that the designed low noise amplifier can provide high power gain and low noise characteristics.
