고분자전해질 연료전지용 분리판 소재로 스텐레스 강의 내식성과 전기전도성을 향상시키기 위해 표면을 TiN(titanium nitride) 또는 Ti/TiN(titanium/titanium nitride)으로 코팅하여 연료전지 운전환경에서 표면 코팅층의 물성 변화를 조사하였다. 200시간의 연료전지 운전에서 표면 코팅층의 부식, 균열(crack), 박리, 표면 화학조성 변화 등을 분석하여 코팅된 TiN 또는 Ti/TiN 박막의 역할을 규명하고자 하였다. 스텐레스 강 분리판의 전기전도도와 부식저항성은 소재 표면에 질화층 박막을 코팅함으로써 증가하였으나 연료전지 환경하에서 운전시 코팅된 박막의 부식과 박리현상이 SUS316L-Ti/TiN을 제외하고 현저히 발생하였다. TiN 코팅층과 하부 기재 사이에 Ti 중간층을 도입함으로써 TiN 박막의 밀착성이 향상되고 또한 코팅층의 두께 증가로 부식 위험성이 감소하는 것을 관찰하였다.

In this paper, a motor gearbox fault-detection system based on a hierarchical flow-based model is proposed. The proposed system is used for the anomaly detection of a motion sound-based actuator module. The proposed flow-based model, which is a generative model, learns by directly modeling a data distribution function. As the objective function is the maximum likelihood value of the input data, the training is stable and simple to use for anomaly detection. The operation sound of a car's side-view mirror motor is converted into a Mel-spectrogram image, consisting of a folding signal and an unfolding signal, and used as training data in this experiment. The proposed system is composed of an encoder and a decoder. The data extracted from the layer of the pretrained feature extractor are used as the decoder input data in the encoder. This information is used in the decoder by performing an interlayer cross-scale convolution operation. The experimental results indicate that the context information of various dimensions extracted from the interlayer hierarchical data improves the defect detection accuracy. This paper is notable because it uses acoustic data and a normalizing flow model to detect outliers based on the features of experimental data.

비터비 디코더(Viterbi decoder)용 임베디드 SRAM은 범용(General purpose) CPU에 쓰이는 SRAM과 달리 읽기, 쓰기 동작이 비터비 복호 알고리즘에 따라 일정한 액세스 패턴을 갖고 동작한다. 이 연구를 통하여 제안된 임베디드 SRAM의 구조는 이러한 메모리 동작의 패턴에 최적화되어 워드라인과 비트라인에서 발생하는 불필요한 전력소모를 제거함으로써 쓰기 동작의 소모 전력을 크게 줄일 수 있다. 65nm CMOS 공정으로 설계된 비터비 디코더는 본 논문에서 제안된 SRAM 구조를 이용하여 기존의 임베디드 SRAM 대비 8.92%만큼 면적증가로 30.84% 소모 전력 감소를 이룩할 수 있었다.

An electron gun system for the Pohang Light Source has been installed and operated successfully. The basic design parameters are acceleration voltage of 80 kV, maximum peak emission current of 5 A, minimum pulse width of 1 ns, and maximum repetition rate of 100 Hz. The gun has a triode structure and is composed of a cathode, a focusing electrode(Wehnelt), and an anode. To sustain a $5{\times}10^{-9}$Torr vacuum, a $230{\ell}/s$ Ion pump has been adopted. We adopted a control and monitoring system based on the fiber-optic technology. In this article, we present the structure and operation principle of the system with special interest on the nanosecond pulser, remote control and monitoring system.

Aerosol generator using an electrically heated tube furnace is a stable apparatus to supply nanometer sized aerosols by using the evaporation and condensation processes. Using this method, we can generate highly concentrated polydisperse aerosols with relatively narrow size distribution. In this work, characteristics of particle size distribution, generated from a tube furnace, were experimentally investigated. We evaluated effects of several operation parameters on particle generation: temperature in the tube furnace, air flow rates through the tube, size of boat containing solid sodium chloride(NaCl). As the temperature increased, the geometric mean diameter increased and the total number concentration also increased. Dilution with air affected the size distribution of the particles due to coagulation. A smaller sized boat, which has small surface area to contact with air, brings smaller particles of narrow size distribution in comparison of that of a larger boat. Finally, we changed the electrical mobility diameter of aggregate sodium chloride particles by varying relative humidity of dilution air, and obtained non-aggregate sodium chloride particles, which are easy to generate exact monodisperse particles.

As complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) continues to scale down deeper into the nanoscale, various device non-idealities cause the I-V characteristics to be substantially different from well-tempered metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). The last few years witnessed a dramatic increase in nanotechnology research, especially the nanoelectronics. These technologies vary in their maturity. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are at the forefront of these new materials because of the unique mechanical and electronic properties. CNTFET is the most promising technology to extend or complement traditional silicon technology due to three reasons: first, the operation principle and the device structure are similar to CMOS devices and it is possible to reuse the established CMOS design infrastructure. Second, it is also possible to reuse CMOS fabrication process. And the most important reason is that CNTFET has the best experimentally demonstrated device current carrying ability to date. This paper discusses and reviewsthe feasibility of the CNTFET's application at this point of time in integrated circuits design by investigating different types of circuit blocks considering the advantages that the CNTFETs offer.

음극지지형 고체산화물 연료전지의 전극성분은 연료전지 성능의 주된 감쇄요인으로 지적되고 있는 분극저항을 줄이기 위해 높은 전기전도도와 가스투과도등이 요구되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 SOFC음극의 성능에 영향을 주는 음극의 미세구조, 특히 음극의 기공구조를 다르게 형성시키기 위해 두 가지 서로 다른 과립형성 방법을 이용하여 음극을 제조하고 이에 따라 기판의 기공구조가 어떻게 바뀌는지 또 그로 인해 기판의 미세구조 및 전기전도도가 어떠한 영향을 받는지 관찰하였다 또한 미세구조에 대한 정량적인 화상분석을 통해 기판의 미세구조적인 인자들과 전극특성간의 상관관계를 분석하였다.

Recently, Silicon On Insulator (SOI) devices emerged to achieve better device characteristics such as higher operation speed, lower power consumption and latch-up immunity. Nevertheless, there are many detrimental defects in SOI wafers such as hydrofluoric-acid (HF)-defects, pinhole, islands, threading dislocations (TD), pyramid stacking faults (PSF), and surface roughness originating from quality of buried oxide film layer. Although the number of defects in SOI wafers has been greatly reduced over the past decade, the turn over of high-speed microprocessors using SOI wafers has been delayed because of unknown defects in SOI wafers. A new characterization method is proposed to investigate the crystalline quality, the buried oxide integrity and some electrical parameters of bonded SOI wafers. In this study, major surface defects in bonded SOI are reviewed using HF dipping, Secco etching, Cu-decoration followed by focused ion beam (FIB) and transmission electron microscope (TEM).

Co-planar type single chamber solid oxide fuel cell with patterned electrode on a surface of electrolyte has been fabricated by robo-dispensing method and microfluidic lithography. The cells were composed of NiO-GDC-Pd or NiO-SDC cermet anode, $(La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})_{0.95}MnO_3$ cathode, and yttria stablized zirconia electrolyte. The cell performance at $900^{\circ}C$ was investigated as a function of electrode geometries, such as anode-to-cathode distance, numbers of electrode pairs. Relationship between OCV and I-V characteristics at the optimized operation condition was also studied by DC source meter under the mixed gas condition of methane, air, and nitrogen. An increase of anode-facing-cathode area leads to lower OCV due to intermixing between product gases of anode and cathode, which in turn decreases the oxygen partial pressure difference.
