  • Frequent disconnection is connected directly to client's cache consistency problem in Mobile Computing environment. For solving cache consistency problem, research about Invalidation Report is studied. But, existent invalidation report structure comes with increase of size of invalidation report structure and decline of cache efficiency if quantity of data become much, or quantity of updated data increases. Also, while existent method confirms whole cache, invalidation report doesn't support selective listening. This paper proposes TTCI(Timestamp Tree-based Cache Invalidation scheme) as invalidation report structure that solve problem of these existing schemes and improve efficiency. We can make TTCI using timestamp of updated data, composing timestamp tree and list ID of data in updated order. If we utilize this, each client can confirm correct information in point that become own disconnecting and increase cache utilization ratio. Also, we can pare down client's resources consumption by selective listening using tree structure. We experimented in comparison with DRCI(Dual-Report Cache Invalidation) that is existent techniques to verify such efficiency of TTCI scheme.

  • The exterior structures of natural organisms have continuously evolved by controlling wettability, such as the Namib Desert beetle, whose back has hydrophilic/hydrophobic contrast for water harvesting by mist condensation in dry desert environments, and some plant leaves that have hierarchical micro/nanostructures to collect or repel liquid water. In this work, we have provided a method for wettability contrast on metals by both nano-flake or needle patterns and tuning of the surface energy. Metals including steel alloys and aluminum were provided with hierarchical micro/nanostructures of metaloxides induced by fluorination and a subsequent catalytic reaction of fluorine ions on metal surfaces in water with various ranges from room to boiling temperature of water. Then, a hydrophobic material was deposited on the structured surfaces, rendering superhydrophobicity. Plasma oxidization induces the formation of superhydrophilic surfaces on selective regions surrounded by superhydrophobic surfaces. We show that wettability contrast surfaces align liquid water within patterned hydrophilic regions during the condensation process. Furthermore, this method could have a greater potential to align other liquids or living cells.

  • 이동 컴퓨팅(Mo띠le Computing) 환경에서 빈번한 접속 단절은 클라이언트의 캐시 일관성(Consistency) 문제로 직결된다. 본 논문에서는 이를 해결하기 일한 무효화 보고(Invalidation Report. In)중 하나를 제시한다. 기존의 IR방식은 대량의 데이터와 빈번한 데이터의 갱신(Update)시 IR 길이의 증기폭이 상당히 크다. 이는 타임스탬프가 IR에서 차지하는 비중이 큼으로써 오는 현상이다. 또한 기존방식은 캐시 레벨의 선택적 청취(Selective tuning)를 지원하지 못하는 문제점을 가지오 있다. 이러한 점을 극복하고자 B+Tree를 기반으로 시간 값을 구성하고 이에 따른 데이터 아이디를 재구성하는 IR방식을 제안한다. 이를 활용하면 각 클라이언트가 자신의 단절(Disconnect)된 시간에 맞는 갱신 정보를 확인할 수 있게 된다. 이러한 방법은 기존 IR의 단점을 보완하며 선택적 청취론 유도할 수 있는 효과적인 방법이다.

  • We design and fabricate a widely tunable laser diode made of InGaAsP-InP. The diode is monolithically integrated with a wavelength-selective coupled-ring reflector and semiconductor amplifiers. For realization of a compact size device, deeply etched multi-mode interference couplers and square ring resonators composed of total-internal-reflection mirrors are adopted and fabricated using a self-aligned process. It is demonstrated that the laser diode exhibits single mode operation and 16 nm tuning range with side-mode-suppression-ratio exceeding 20 dB.

  • In this paper, a low-cost hybrid-integrated tunable laser is realized using a polymer-ring resonator-based add/drop filter reflector and a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier. The add/drop filter reflector, composed of a double-ring resonator with different radii, can have characteristics of selective wavelength reflection and wide wavelength tuning with an aid of vernier effect derived from the radii difference. By hybrid-integrating the reflective semiconductor optical amplifier with the add/drop filter reflector, a tunable laser can be realized through an active alignment method. The hybrid laser exhibited a single mode lasing with side mode suppression ratio of 26 dB and full width half maximum of 0.03 nm. In addition, applying a low current as small as 25 mA onto electrodes over add/drop filter reflector, a wavelength tuning range of 17 nm could be obtained.

  • The digital DBS tuner is designed and implemented in a CMOS process using a direct-conversion architecture that offers a high degree of integration. To generate mathched LO I/Q quadrature signals covering the total input frequency range, a fully integrated ring oscillator is employed. And, to decrease a high level of phase noise of the ring oscillator, a frequency synthesizer is designed using a double loop strucure. This paper proposes and verifies a band selective loop for fast frequency switching time of the double loop frequency synthesizer. The down-conversion mixer with source follower input stages is used for low voltage operation. An experiment implementation of the frequency synthesizer and mixer with integrated a 0.25um CMOS process achieves a switching time of 600us when frequency changes from 950 to 2150MHz. And, the experiment results show a quadrature amplitude mismatch of max. 0.06dB and a quadrature phase mismathc of max. >$3.4^{\circ}$.

  • Current interest in the regioselective N-functionalization of tetraazacycloalkanes (cyclen and cyclam) stems mainly from their complexes with radioactive metals for applications in diagnostic ($^{64}Cu,\;^{111}In,\;^{67}Ga$) and therapeutic ($^{90}Y$) medicine, and with paramagnetic ions for magnetic resonance imaging ($Gd^{+3}$). Selective methods for the N-substitution of cyclen and cyclam is a crucial step in most syntheses of cyclen and cyclam-based radiometal complexes and bifunctional chelating agents. In addition, mixing different pendent groups to give hetero-substituted cyclen derivatives would be advantageous in many applications for fine-tuning the compound's physical properties. So far, numerous approaches for the regioselective N-substitution of tetraazacycloalkanes and more specifically cyclen and cyclam are reported. Unfortunately, none of them are general and every strategy has its own strong points and drawbacks. Herein, we categorize numerous regioselective N-alkylation methods into three strategies, such as 1) direct substitution of the macrocycle, 2) introductiou of the functional groups prior to cyclization, and 3) protection/iunclionallrationideproteclion. Our discussion is also split into the methods of mono- and tri-functionalization and di-functionalizataion based on number of substituents. At the end, we describe new trials for the new macrocycles which iorm more stable metal complexes with various radiometals, and briefly mention the commercially available tetraazacycloalkanes which are used for the biconjugation of biomolecules.

  • Ruthenium complex-catalyzed reactions often require highly qualified tuning of reaction conditions with substrates to attain high yield and selectivity of the products. In this review, our strategies for achieving characteristic ruthenium complex-catalyzed co-oligomerization of different alkenes are disclosed: 1) The codimerization of 2-norbornenes with acrylic compounds by new ruthenium catalyst systems of RuCl3(tpy)/Zn [tpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine] or [RuCl2(η6-C6H6)]2/Zn in alcohols, 2) A novel synthesis of 2-alkylidenetetrahydrofurans from dihydrofurans and acrylates by zerovalent ruthenium catalysts, such as Ru(η4-cod)(η6-cot) [cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, cot = 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene] and Ru(η6-cot)(η2-dmfm)2 [dmfm = dimethyl fumarate], 3) Regio- and stereoselective synthesis of enamides by Ru(η6-cot)(η2-dmfm)2-catalyzed codimerization of N-vinylamides with alkenes, and 4) Unusual head-to-head dimerization of styrenes and linear codimerization of styrenes with ethylene by Ru(η6-cot)(η2-dmfm)2 catalyst in the presence of primary alcohols.

  • In this paper, we propose a scheme for designing a tunable pixel layer based on a $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ (GST) alloy thin film. We show that the phase change of GST can significantly affect the reflection characteristic when the GST film is embedded into a dielectric encapsulation layer. We investigate the appropriate positions of the GST film within the dielectric layer for high diffraction efficiency, and we prove that they are antinodes of Fabry-Perot resonance inside the dielectric layer. Using the proposed scheme, we can increase the diffraction efficiency by about ten times compared to a bare GST film pixel, and 80 times for the first-to-zeroth-order diffraction power ratio. We show that the proposed scheme can be designed alternatively for a broadband or wavelength-selective type by tuning the dielectric thickness, and we discuss a multi-phase example with a double-stack structure.
