We examined the effect of electrode fingers and gaps of coplanar interdigitated electrode (IDE) structures to characterize the ammonium salt-containing polyelectrolyte film of resistance-based humidity sensors. IDEs designed for this purpose were flexible gold electrodes deposited on a polyimide substrate using a printing process because the geometry presents a potential for tunable sensitivity over other electrode designs. The basic design of the sensors consisted of IDEs with a different number of electrode fingers such as 3, 4, and 5 and gap sizes of 310, 360, 410, and $460{\mu}m$. Details of the AC complex impedance characteristics such as the Nyquist plot, Bode plot, and activation energy based on electrode construction were investigated.

Various auto-tuning methods using relay feedback are presented recently. They are composed of the consecutive procedures identifying Nyquist critical point using relay feedback and designing PID controller by one point of Nyquist plot mapping. This paper suggests a strategy to get the knowledges of Nyquist critical point and the neighborhood point of it using relay feedback. The parameters of PID controller are established by dominant pole approximation based on these knowledges. Designers can make use of the damping ratio as a time domain specification. So design flexibilities are taken in view of stability and performance of the system response considering practical system condition.

This paper deals with designing the PID autotuner. The system parameters are identified using the relay control, where the unidirectional relay with hysteresis is adopted. The digital PID tuning rule on Nyquist plot is derived, and the statistical wordlength is adopted for the coefficient wordlength. The experimental results of temperature control exhibit the satisfactory performance and the validity of the derived statistical wordlength.

변전위법과 전기화학적 임피던스측정법(electrochemical impedence spectroscopy)을 이용하여 borate 완충용액에서 Co-RDE의 전기화학적 부식과 부동화에 대하여 조사하였다. Tafel 기울기, 코발트 회전원판전극의 회전속도, 임피던스 그리고 부식전위와 부식전류의 pH 의존성으로부터 코발트의 부식과 부동화 반응 메커니즘과 환원반응에서의 수소 발생 반응구조를 제안하였다. EIS data로부터 등가회로를 제안하였으며 산화반응의 영역별로 전기화학적 변수들을 측정하였다. 부식전위에서 측정된 Nyquist plot의 induction loop가 낮은 주파수 영역에서 관측되는 것으로 보아 흡착/탈착 현상이 Co의 부식과정에 영향을 미치는 것으로 보인다.

The effects of oleic acid, propylene glycol and 5% (w/w) oleic acid in propylene glycol on the electrical properties of hairless mouse skin were studied and the results were compared. The complex electrical impedance was measured as a function of frequency, and resistance and capacitance were determined from the Nyquist plot. Immediately after the treatment with oleic acid, resistance was 145% of the pretreatment value. However it decreased with time and, after 20 hours, it was about 25% of its pretreatment value. Capacitance increased; immediately after the treatment, it was about 125% of pretreatment value and it seemed to increase slowly with time. When the skin was treated with propylene glycol, resistance decreased about 5O% and capacitance increased about 65%. Similar results were observed when the skin was treated with 5% (w/w) oleic acid in propylene glycol, except that the magnitude of resistance drop was much larger. Oleic acid acted synergistically with propylene glycol. Together with the flux data in the literature, the results obtained in this work indicate that electrical resistance is closely related to the permeability of drug molecules through the skin. The results are discussed in terms of the mechanism of action of these penetration enhancers. Overall, this work provided further mechanistic insight into the role of SC lipids in skin resistance and capacitance.

The effect of Azone and ethanol on the electrical properties of human and hairless mouse skin was studied and the results were compared. The complex electrical impedance was measured as a function of frequency, and resistance and capacitance were determined from Nyquist plot. After the treatment of human-heat separated epidermis with Azone, contrary to the expectation, resistance increased about 60% and it did not change with time. Capacitance also increased; immediately after the treatment, it was about 110% of pretreatment value and it increased further with time. On the other hand, when hairless mouse skin was treated with Azone, marked changes occured; resistance fell almost to the value of bathing medium itself and capacitance increased to about 200% of its pretreatment value. Similar result were obtained when hairless mouse skin was treated with 100% ethanol. The results suggest that there are differences in the strength of barrier properties of stratum corneum (SC) between human and hairless mouse skin. Overall, the results provide further mechanistic insight into ion conduction through the skin and into the role of SC lipids in skin capacitance.

Corrosion properties of dissimilar friction stir welded 6061 aluminum and HT590 steel were investigated to understand effects of galvanic corrosion. As cathode when coupled, HT590 was cathodically protected. However, the passivation of AA6061 made the aluminum alloy cathode temporarily, which leaded to corrosion of HT590. From the EIS analysis showing Warburg diffusion plot in Nyquist plots, it can be inferred that the stable passivation layer was formed on AA6061. However, the weld as well as HT590 did not show Warburg diffusion plot in Nyquist plots, suggesting that there was no barrier for corrosion or even if it exists, the barrier had no function for preventing and/or retarding charge transport through the passivation layer. The open circuit potential measurements showed that the potential of the weld was similar to that of HT590, which lied in the pitting region for AA6061, making the aluminum alloy part of the weld keep corrosion state. That resulted in the cracked oxide film on AA6061 of the weld, which could not play a role of corrosion barrier.

최근 기존의 아연 도금 강판의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 다른 금속과의 합금 박막의 연구가 활발히 진행 중에 있다. 기존 아연 도금 강판에 비해 Mg를 함유한 Zn-Mg 합금 박막이 내식성이 우수하다고 알려져 있으며, 본 연구에서는 다양한 Mg 함량의 Zn-Mg 합금 타겟을 사용하여 Zn-Mg 박막을 합성하였다. 합성된 박막들의 내식성을 평가하기 위해서 Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) 분석을 실시하였으며, 도출된 Nyquist plot 과 Bode phase angle plot 결과를 등가회로 피팅과 시뮬레이션을 실시하여 Mg 함량에 따른 Zn-Mg 박막의 내식성을 비교 분석하였다. Zn-Mg 박막은 Mg 함량이 증가할수록 내식성 또한 증가하였으며, 이는 Mg 함량에 따라 치밀해지는 미세구조에 의한 것으로 판단된다.

The electrochemical methods of early detection and analysis of corrosion related deterioration in concrete reinforcement structures are very useful techniques. The generally using procedure for corrosion monitoring of reinforced structures employs a method of half-cell potential measurement. Whilst the technique has provided a useful means of delineating areas of high or low corrosion risk, there are difficulties in its use and interpretation, particularly when assessing corrosion rates of reinforcement. The aim of this study is to describe the AC-impedance method being employed to monitor and assess corrosion rates, to estimate corrosion mechanism of reinfrocement in laboratory conditions. The AC-impedance monitoring technique applies a small amplitude(20mV) AC signal to embedded steel in concrete and reference electrode (Cu/$CuSo_4$). We obtained over a wide frequency range(10MHz~1mHz) to produce a complex plane plot or Nyquist plot.
