A new CMOS voltage-bias differential LC voltage-controlled oscillator (LC-VCO) with active source degeneration is proposed. The proposed degeneration technique preserves the quality factor of the LC-tank which leads to improvement in phase noise of VCO oscillators. The proposed VCO shows the high figure of merit (FOM) with large tuning range, low power, and small chip size compared to those of conventional voltage-bias differential LC-VCO. The proposed VCO implemented in 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS shows the phase noise of -118 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset oscillating at 5.03 GHz, tuning range of 12%, occupies 0.15 $mm^2$ of chip area while dissipating 1.44 mW from 0.8 V supply.

This paper proposed a new partial resonant 3.PHI. AC-DC boost converter of high efficiency using lossless snubber. The proposed converter, DCM (Discontinuous Current Mode) has a merit of simple controlled circuit because the input current control discontinuously. But turned off switching loss and stress of the switching device increase when the switch turned off at the peak of current. Therefore, the paper improves efficiency by adopting the PRS$^{2}$(Partial Resonant Soft Switching) in 3.PHI. AC-DC boost converter and makes the unity power factor. The PRS$^{2}$ is reduced a current/voltage stresses of switching devices. Also, a DCMPRS$^{2}$M(Discontinuous Conduction Mode Partial Resonant Soft Switching Method) appear the current and voltage equation of this circuit. The paepr examine in a 3.PHI. AC-DC boost converter and show the result of that.

Power semiconductors are being currently used as a application of intelligent power inverters to a refrigerator, a washing machine and a vacuum cleaner as well as core parts of industrial system. The rating of semiconductor devices is an important factor in decision on the field of application and the forward blocking voltage is one of factors in decision of the rating. The Power MOS device has a merit of high input impedance, short switching time, and stability in temperature as well known. Power MOS devices are mainly used as switches in the field of power electronics, especially the on-state resistance and breakdown voltage are regarded as the most important parameters. Power MOS devices that enable a small size, a light weight, high-integration and relatively high voltage are required these days. In this paper, we proposed the new lateral power MOS which has forward blocking voltage of 250V and contains trench electrodes and verified manufactural possibility by using TSUPREM-4 that is process simulator.

ITO는 결정질 실리콘 태양전지의 anti-reflection coating (ARC) 층으로써 적합한 물질이다. ARC layer로써 구조적, 전기적 그리고 광학적 최적 조건의 특성을 얻기 위해는 높은 figure of merit(FOM)를 가져야 하고 결정방향 제어를 해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 결정질 실리콘 태양전지에 가장 적합한 ITO ARC layer의 특성 찾기 위해 Radio frequency magnetron sputter를 이용하여 공정 조건가변 실험을 진행 하였으며 높은 FOM을 갖는 ITO 반사방지막을 shallow emitter형 결정질 실리콘 태양전지에 적용하였으며 ITO 박막은 shallow emitter층과 완벽한 ohmic 접합을 이루었다. ITO ARC layer를 적용한 Shallow emitter형 태양전지는 81.59%의 fill factor와 $35.52mA/cm^2$의 단락전류를 보이며 17.27%의 광변환 효율을 보였다.

In this paper, the power factor correction (PFC) system for inverter air-conditioner that has not only good harmonic characteristics but also cost down-merit compared with the conventional inverter type is proposed. The detail design procedures to get cost-down merits are introduced. And it is shown that the PFC system performances also can be improved by the virtue of the stabilization of output voltage. The proto type system is implemented and tested to virify the additional good performances of the proposed system, and its simulation and experimental results are presented.

In this paper, APLC(Active Power Line Conditioner) is designed for low consumed power electrical equipment such as communication electronic equipment, computer sever and etc.. Because APLC which is hunted to the mains controls only the elements of harmonics, the designed APLC is very high efficient. Additionally, controller designed with low cost micro-controller and analog circuit has good merit economically. Simulation and experimental results on a prototype verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme.

cIn this paper. we evaluate the breakdown and TDDB characteristics of ammonia free ECVD SiN films which studied widely as a gate insulator to substitute the silicon dioxide because of it's superior film characteristics with the merit of low temperature process. And also, we propose a new statistical model by introduce a dispersion factor in the traditional Weibull statistics. From the comparison of experimental result, and simulation one, try to dock the breakdown mechanism and statistical analysis.

In optical disk drives, one of commonly used pickup actuator is a Sliding and rotary type of pickup actuator which is cheaper than other pickup actuators and has simple assembly. However, it reported that non-linearity due to friction between a shaft and a sleeve had to be considerably analyzed in design and servo system in employing this type of pickup actuator. In this paper, this friction is modeled as a Coulomb's friction and the effect of friction is examined in the simulation. A digital servo system is applied to pickup actuator with friction in order to have good focusing servo. To enhance focusing servo performance using digital servo merit, frist PD-controller is applied to have fast response performance, second lead-lag compensator is applied to have stable focusing performance.

This paper is concerned with an optimum design study of containerships in preliminary stage by applying economic criteria. The Net Present Value Index (NPVI) and the Required Freight Rate(RFR) are used as measures of merit. Hooke & Jeeves direct search method and External Penalty Function method of Sequential Unconstrained Minimization Techniques(SUMT) are used for solving constrained nonlinear optimization problem. Sensitivity analysis is carried out to investigate the effect on the optimum solution due to change of values in some parameters such as crane capacity, load factor, oil price, ship speed and the ratio between loaded FEU and TEU.
