격자 구조형 스트립 방향성 결합기를 기반으로 한 고 민감도 굴절률 bio-sensor를 제안하였다. 그 센서는 도파관 중 하나의 상단 층에 격자 구조가 구성된, 두 개의 비대칭 스트립 도파관을 사용하여 설계하였다. 위상정합 조건을 만족하는 공진 파장에서 한 도파관으로부터 다른 도파관으로 최대 광 결합이 발생하며, 도파관 표면 영역에 놓인 분석물질의 굴절률 변화에 따른 위상정합 조건의 변화가 민감도를 측정하는 척도로 사용될 수 있음을 보여주었다. 제안된 센서는 높은 굴절률 민감도를 가진 on-chip 장치로 설계될 수 있으며, 낮은 전파 손실을 제공하여 민감도가 향상되도록 센서를 구성되었다. 더욱이, 도파관 파라미터에 따른 민감도 변화가 센서의 설계 최적화를 위하여 분석되었다.

Materials that can be used for 3D printing have been developed in terms of phase and functionality. Materials should also be easily printed with high accuracy. In recent years, the concept of 4D printing has been extended to materials whose physical properties such as shape or volume can change depending on the environment. Typically, such high-performance 3D printing materials include bio-inks and inks for sensors. This study deals with the optimization of the manufacturing method to improve the functional properties of the pressure sensitive material, which can be used as a sensor based on change of the resistance according to the pressure. Specifically, the number of milling for dispersion, the ratio of hardener for controlling elasticity, and the content of MWCNTs were optimized. As a result, a method of manufacturing a highly sensitive pressure-sensitive ink capable of use in 3D printing was introduced.

A new hardware compensation method reducing displacement measurement errors, caused by tilt of index scale in moire linear encoders, has been developed. In conventional moire linear encoders, the detectors are aligned perpendicular to the line of moire fringes this structure is very sensitive to an unwanted tilt of the gratings. In this paper, a newly designed grating, called a phase-modulated grating, is developed to compensate for non-orthogonal errors. By using the phase-modulated grating instead of a conventional index, it is possible to reduce non-orthogonal errors of moire linear encoders.

Surface plasmon resonance(SPR) has been widely studied for biological and chemical sensing applications. The present study conducts numerical simulation for the single and bimetallic layer SPR configurations by using the multiple beam interference matrix(MBIM) method to investigate the influence of wave interference and complex refractive indices of materials on optical characteristics such as reflectance and optical phase shift which are used for sensing. First, calculated reflectances are compared with experimental data for validation. In addition, in the single film structures this study finds out the appropriate film thicknesses with minimum reflectance for cases of gold film and silver film. For a bimetallic silver-gold film structure, in particular, the bimetallic film thicknesses that has the minimum reflectance are found 36 nm for silver and 5 nm for gold. From the results, the use of phase shift would be useful compared to reflectance in determining the SPR configuration because the phase shift becomes more sensitive than reflectance.

Electrically conductive polypyrrole-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PPy-PVP) nanofiber mats with a core-shell structure have been successfully fabricated by a two-step process: the formation of FeCl3-containing PVP nanofiber mat by electrospinning, and the vapor-phase polymerization (VPP) of pyrrole monomer on the mat in a sealed chamber at room temperature. Surface morphology and chemical composition of the PPy-PVP mat were characterized by SEM, EDX and FTIR analyses. The as-prepared nonwoven mat was composed of PPy-PVP nanofibers with an average diameter of 300 nm. The sheet conductivity of the nanofiber mat was measured to be approximately 0.01 S/cm by a four-point probe. We have also investigated gas-sensing properties of PPy-PVP nanofiber mat upon exposure to methanol vapor. The PPy-PVP nanofiber sensors were observed to have excellent methanol-sensing performance. The nanofiber-based core-shell nanostructure could give an opportunity to fabricate a highly sensitive and fast response sensor due to its high surfaceto-volume ratio.

A chaotic oscillator with light controllability was designed. The proposed chaotic oscillator consists of a photo sensor, two phase clock driven MOS switches, nonlinear function blocks for chaotic signal generation. SPICE circuit analysis using a 0.35 um CMOS process parameters was performed for its chaotic dynamics. And we confirmed that chaotic behaviors of the circuit can be controlled according to light intensity. By SPICE simulation, chaotic dynamics by time waveforms, frequency analysis was analyzed. SPICE results showed that proposed circuit can make various light-controlled chaotic signals.

루프 공진기 구조를 가지는 비침습식 혈당 센서 구조를 제작하여 혈당 측정을 위한 민감도 측정을 하였다. 0%와 20%의 글루코스 용액의 전기적 특성을 확인하고, 25mm${\sim}$170mm의 지름을 가지는 링 구조를 이용하여 식염수 중 글루코스 농도에 따른 반사 손실의 차이를 측정하였다. 링 형태 프로브가 혈액과 같은 인체 내부의 물질을 측정하는데 종단 개방 프로브에 비해 유리한 특성을 가지며, 측정 주파수 중 가장 낮은 285MHz에서 S11이 0.94의 차이를 보여, 저주파일수록 민감도가 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.

A computer code for Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) is developed to sense the cross sectional phase distribution of two-phase flow in the rectangular pipe in which the tomography sensor furnished by the insulated wall, electrodes, and electric field screen. The computer code had two steps for the image reconstruction. In the forward projection step, the sensitivity matrix was constructed based on the electric field calculated by the finite difference method. In the backward projection step, the sensitivity matrix and the measured capacitances were used to reconstruct the cross sectional image. Several algorithms including LBP, TR, ITR, and PLI were employed to find the proper one for the two-phase flow analysis. Since the dielectric constant of the water in two-phase flow is sensitive to the thermal parameter such as, temperature and pressure, the developed code was evaluated to find their accuracy, speed of calculation, and sensitivity to the variation of the dielectric constant. It was found that the iterative methods are superior to the direct methods for the image reconstruction, and the PLI method was the best in the variation of the dielectric constants.

Here, we review the various methods for the preparation of vanadium dioxide ($VO_2$) films and nanowires, and their potential applications to the sensors such as gas sensor, strain sensor, and temperature sensor. $VO_2$ is an interesting material on account of its easily accessible and sharp Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT) at ${\sim}68^{\circ}C$ in the bulk. The MIT is also triggered by the electric field, stress, magnetic field etc. This paper involves exceptionally sensitive hydrogen sensors based on the catalytic process between hydrogen molecules and Pd nanoparticles on the $VO_2$ surface, and fast responsive sensors based on the self-heating effects which leads to the phase changes of the $VO_2$. These features will be seen in this paper and can enable strategies for the integration of a $VO_2$ material in advanced and complex functional units such as logic gates, memory, FETs for micro/nano-systems as well as the sensors.

The paper describes recent experimental results on the development of Digital Magnetic Compass (DMC), which can provide smart automatic correction functions to the magnetic interferences. The design methodology of magnetic sensing circuit with ring-core fluxgate sensor is represented. The performance results of the sensing circuits are discussed with error analysis by polynomial regressions. As test results, the sensing circuit filtered only the second harmonic signal that is proportional to the direction of earth's magnetic field, and it leads to the obtainment of bearing information. In addition, the total residual errors of DMC can be analyzed by the adoption of polynomial regressions. It shown that the possibility of high precise DMC, in the future.
