To cope with the high power density and low cost in switching power supply, this paper presents a novel planar transformer, which can regulate the leakage inductance of planar transformer used for LLC resonant converter. Modeling and analysis of a novel planar transformer are discussed in detail and a prototype 200W LLC resonant converter is tested to verify.

We have fabricated a LDD structured polysilicon thin film transistor with low leakge current and the optimized LDD length has been obtained. The device performance is improved is improved by hydrogen passivation process. The on.off current ratio of poly0Si TFT s with $0.5{\mu}m$ and $1.0{\mu}m$ LDD length is much higher than that of conventional structured device due to the decrease of leakege current. The optimized LDD length may be $0.5{\mu}$ from the experimental data such as on/off current ratio, threshold voltage and hydrogenation effect.

This study has been investigated that traps generated inside of the oxide and at the oxide interfaces by the stress bias voltage. The traps are charged near the cathode with negative charge and charged near the anode with positive charge. The charge state of the traps can easily be changed by application of low voltages after the stress high voltage. These trap generation involve either electron impact ionization processes or high field generation processes. It determined to the relative traps locations inside the oxides ranges from 113.4$\AA$ to 814$\AA$ with capacitor areas of 10$^{-3}$ $\textrm{cm}^2$ . The oxide charge state of traps generated by the stress high voltage contain either a positive or a negative charge.

The stability of ZnO-$Pr_{6}O_{11}$-CoO-$Cr_{2}O_{3}-Dy_{2}O_3$ based varistors with d.c. stress were investigated. ZnO varistor doped with 4.0 mol% $Dy_{2}O_3$ exhibited the highest nonlinear exponet, but stability was very poor because of low density. In particular, the varistor containing 0.5 mol% $Dy_{2}O_3$ showed very excellent V-I characteristic, which the nonlinear exponent was 67.39 and leakage current was 1.18 ${\mu}A$, and high stability.

Pressurization system of a 50m unmanned airship was manufactured according to the detailed design. In this paper. the whole procedures including system design. simulation and fabrication were described. The fabricated part were ground tested to check compliances with design requirements. Ground tests include operational tests, leakage tests, endurace tests and low temperature environmental tests. Results shows pressurization system of a 50m unmanned airship meets design requirements. Currently. pressurization system is installed to the KARI airship, Via 50m and performance verification through the flight tests are being conducted.

Intermetallic dielectric layer was formed by using SiO$_2$/SOG/SiO$_2$ for aluminum based dual-metal interconnection process and its electric characteristics were evaluated. The dielectric layer was in the cost and facility point of view more useful than the insulator that was formed by etch-back process. The planarity by using SOG process was about 40% higher than that of the insulator by the CVD process. When SiO$_2$ films were deposited by the PECVD process the Al hillock formation during the next process was restrained bucause the intermetalic insulator was made at low temperature. The leakage current was 1${\times}10^{7}~1{\times}10^{-8}A/cm^{2}$ at the electric field of 10$^{5}$V/cm and breakdown filed was 4.5${\times}10^{6}~7{\times}10^{6}A/cm$. So we had confirmed that siloxane SOG was very useful for intermetallic layer material.

Copper metal is widely used in tubes installed in sprinkler water services because of its excellent corrosion resistance. Copper corrosion is considered to be insignificant in water system and the incident of copper pipeline failure is relatively low. However, pitting corrosion is a major problem with all copper tubes. In this study, leaked sprinkler copper tubes were collected from three different locations and examined on the causes of pitting corrosion of copper tubes in sprinkler water plumbing systems. Electrochemical tests such as potentiodynamic polarization, as well as surface and chemical analyses were performed. Results show that pitting corrosion of copper tubes were found as Type I pitting that the carbon film formed on the copper tubes have a harmful effects, causing the pinhole failure in the pipe and resulting in leakage of water. The contermeasures on Type I pitting corrosion of copper tubes were proposed.

Biosurfactant has antibiological activities. Due to its low toxicity, biosurfactant can be applied to human health care products. Posseing the antibiological activities as well as the surfactant properties implies that biosurfactant can be widely used in the cosmetic industry. In this presentation, applications of biosurfactant have been reviewed including the antimicrobial activities of sophorolipid. Sophorolipid, a biosurfactant produced from Candida bombicola ATCC 22214, showed antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus xylosus, Streptococcus mutans, and Propionibacterium acne at 4, 1, 1, 0.5 ppm as MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration). Also 100 ppm of sophorolipid inhibited 50% of cell growth of plant pathogenic fungus, B. cinera. However, sophorolipid showed no effect on the Escherichia coli., indicating its selective antimicrobial activity depending on the cell wall structure. Treatment of B. subtilis with sophorolipid increased the leakage of intracellular enzyme, malate dehydrogenase, indicating the possible interaction of sophorolipid with cellular membrane. Between lactone-type and acid-type sophorolipid, the former showed higher antimicrobial activity.

Linear ball guideways have been used recently in precision or ultra-precision positioning devices. However, when the inner balls begin to roll or the moving direction reverses, these guideways are subject to rolling friction or nonlinear spring behavior. An ultra-precision device with a linear motor, referred to as a 'tunnel actuator' (TA), has been constructed to measure these phenomena. The application of a TA is beneficial for two reasons: it mostly cancels the attractive magnetic force between the stator and mover (armature), and its magnetic flux leakage is very low. The influence of the nonlinear spring behavior in ball guideways was investigated in this study using the pure driving force from a TA. The equilibrium between the driving force from the TA and the nonlinear spring force provided great accuracy for a positioning stage using a linear ball guideway.

A person's body resistance in the waterpark, public bath and similar places is lower than any other places due to effect of water. So low voltage may create a shock hazard for the human body in case of leakage or fault currents from lighting unit etc. We researched the related regulations these are internal standards, NEC, IEC and investigated the actual conditions for the prevention of electrical shock due to lighting units in the waterpark, public bath and similar places. So we could present actual facilities's problems and solutions
