Surface potential properties at the interface of pentacene thin films on gold (Au) and aluminum (Al) surfaces were investigated by using a near-field scanning microwave microprobe (NSMM). The surface potential formed across the pentacene film was observed by measuring the microwave reflection coefficient $S_{11}$ and compared with the result of a Kelvin-probe method. The obtained reflection coefficient ${\Delta}S_{11}$ of the pentacene thin films on Al was decreased as the pentacene film thickness increased due to the increased accumulation of negative space charges, while for Au ${\Delta}S_{11}$ was essentially constant.

We report the microwave reflection coefficient $S_{11}$ of copper(II)-phthalocyanine(CuPc) using a near-field microwave microscope(NSMM) in order to understand the intrinsic electromagnetic properties of organic materials. For a NSMM system, a high-quility microstip resonator coupled with a dielectric resonator was used. The reflection coefficient $S_{11}$ was changed by the preparation conditions of CuPc thin films. We compared the reflection coefficient with crystal phase, surface morphology, UV absorption spectra and x-ray diffraction results.

We report the space charge and the surface potential of the interface between metal and copper(Ⅱ)-phthalocyanine(CuPc) thin films by measuring the microwave reflection coefficients S/sub 11/ of thin films using a near-field scanning microwave microscope(NSMM). CuPc thin films were prepared on Au and Al thin films using a thermal evaporation method. Two kinds of CuPc thin films were prepared by different substrate heating conditions; one was deposited on preheated substrate at 150。C and the other was annealed after deposition. The microwave reflection coefficients S/sub 11/ of CuPc thin films were changed by the dependence on grain alignment due to heat treatment conditions and depended on thickness of CuPc thin films. Electrical conductivity of interface between metal and organic CuPc was changed by the space charge of the interface. By comparing reflection coefficient S/sub 11/ we observed the electrical conductivity changes of CuPc thin films by the changes of surface potential and space charge at the interface.

We report the space charge and the surface potential of the interface between metal and CuPc according to isotropic property and different metal by measuring the microwave reflection coefficients $S_{11}$ of copper(II)-phthalocyanine(CuPc) thin films by using a near-field microwave microscope(NSMM) in order to understand. CuPc thin films were prepared on gold and aluminium substrates using a thermal evaporation method. Two kinds of CuPc thin films were prepared. One was deposited on preheated substrate at $150^{\circ}C$ and the other was annealed after deposition by using thermal evaporation methods. The microwave reflection coefficients $S_{11}$ of CuPc thin films were changed by the dependence on the heat treatment conditions. By comparing reflection coefficient $S_{11}$ we measured electrical conductivity of CuPc thin films and studied this results with respect to the surface potential and space charge of the interface between metal and CuPc thin films.

We report the changes of the microwave reflection coefficients S$_{11}$ of copper(II)-phthalocyanine (CuPc) thin films by using a near-field microwave microscope(NSMM) in order to understand the phase transition of CuPc. For a NSMM system, a high-quality microstrip resonator coupled with a dielectric resonator was used. CuPc thin films were prepared on the pre-heated glass substrates using a thermal evaporation method. The reflection coefficients S$_{11}$ of CuPc thin films were changed by the dependence on the substrate pre-heating temperatures. By comparing reflection coefficient S$_{11}$ and crystal structures, we found the phase transition of CuPc thin films from $\alpha$-phase to $\beta$-phase at the substrate heating temperature 200 $^{\circ}C$./TEX>.

Finite difference analysis were applied to study the principle operation of monopole antenna for moisture determination in oil palm fruit at 2 GHz. The electromagnetic field interact with oil palm fruit on the interface between the antenna and oil palm fruit and cause a reflection. The reflection measurement is based on mismatch impedance or dielectric properties between two media. Reflection coefficient is used to quantify the level of reflection. The monopole antenna was made of RG405/U semi-rigid coaxial cable with an inner and outer diameter of 0.45 mm and 1.50 mm, respectively with 2.23 mm length of protruding conductor over 5.66 cm length of monopole antenna. This monopole antenna for moisture detection was compared with induced EMF method in terms of reflection coefficient at 2 GHz. The results show that the complex reflection coefficient measured using monopole antenna provides significant results to predict moisture content in oil palm fruit.

In this paper, the methods are presented for the calculation of general coupling coefficient matrixes used in the band pass filter design. They are calculated from transmission coefficient($S_{21}$) and reflection coefficient($S_{11}$) with desired characteristics derived from the poles of filter function and return loss(RL). The calculated matrixes from this method are transformed to the folded canonical filter structure using similarity transformation which lends us the practical filter design. Based on the resulting matrix, the folded canonical filter has been designed.

The use of electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet PCs has increased of late. However, the power which is supplied through wires has a limitation of the free use of devices and portability. Magnetic-resonance wireless power transfer (WPT) can achieve increased transfer distance and efficiency compared to the existing electromagnetic inductive coupling. A superconducting coil can be applied to increase the efficiency and distance of magnetic-resonance WPT. As superconducting coils have lower resistance than copper coils, they can increase the quality factor (Q-factor) and can overcome the limitations of magnetic-resonance WPT. In this study, copper coils were made from ordinary copper under the same condition as the superconducting coils for a comparison experiment. Superconducting coils use liquid nitrogen to keep the critical temperature. As there is a difference of medium between liquid nitrogen and air, liquid nitrogen was also used in the normal conductor coil to compare the experiment with under the same condition. It was confirmed that superconducting coils have a lower reflection-coefficient($S_{11}$) than the normal conductor coils.

This paper describes the modeling and experimental results for Bulk Acoustic Wave(BAW) Resonator using PolyVinyliDene Fluoride(PVDF). We measured the input reflection coefficient ($S_{11}$) of resonators using vector network analyzer and experimental results were measured fundamental resonance at 2.3 GHz with a return loss of -29 dB. Because of fabricated resonator without etching process, we can confirm a possibility of resonator application as using a PVDF.

열 증착 방법을 이용하여 copper(II)-phthalocyanine(CuPc) 박막을 glass 기판 위에 제작하였다. 열처리 조건은 $150^{\circ}C$에서 후열(annealing) 처리 하는 방식과 예열하는 두 가지 방식으로 달리하였다. 제작된 박막의 전기전도도를 평가하기 위해 마이크로웨이브 근접장 효과를 이용한 근접장 현미경(near-field scanning microwave microscope)을 이용하여 비파괴적인 방식으로 CuPc 박막의 반사계수(reflection coefficient)를 측정하였다. CuPc 박막의 전기전도도 특성을 UV 흡수도를 통한 에너지 밴드갭의 shift 현상과 관련지어 설명하고 또한 x-ray diffraction(XRD) data를 통해 박막의 결정 특성과 비교하였다. 박막 표면 특성은 SEM(scanning microscope microscopy)을 통해 관측하였다. 열처리 조건에 따른 CuPc 박막의 전기전도도 특성은 후열 처리한 박막의 경우 예열 처리한 박막보다 전기 전도 특성이 향상되었음을 관측할 수 있었다.
