  • Graphene, two-dimensional one-atom-thick planar sheet of carbon atoms densely packed in a honeycomb crystal lattice, exhibits fascinating electrical properties, such as a linear energy dispersion relation and high mobility in addition to a wide-range optical absorption and high thermal conductivity. Graphene's outstanding tensile strength allows graphene-based electronic and photonic devices to be flexible, bendable, or even stretchable. Recently many groups have reported high performance electronic and optoelectronic devices based on graphene materials, i.e. field-effect transistors, gas sensors, nonvolatile memory devices, and plasmonic waveguides, in which versatile properties of graphene materials have been incorporated into a flexible electronic or optoelectronic platform. However, there are several fundamental or technological hurdles to be overcome in real applications of graphene in electronics and optoelectronics. In this tutorial we will present a short introduction to the basic material properties and recent progresses in applications of graphene to electronics and optoelectronics and discuss future outlook of graphene-based devices.

  • With much attention being paid to the rapid growth of wrist-worn smart devices, this study aimed to examine the micro-processes that determine an individual's adoption of smart bands and smartwatches. Primarily relying on the theoretical background of the extended technology acceptance model (TAM II), this study explored relationships between three groups of predictors-social, personal, and device-oriented-and the three main components of the original TAM: perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU), and behavioral intention (BI). Results from the path analysis indicated multiple factors played significant roles in increasing the PU, PEOU, and BI of wristworn smart devices: subjective norms, social image, self-efficacy, perceived service diversity, and perceived reasonable cost. The main findings from this research contribute to significantly improving the understanding of the main factors leading people to adopt wrist-worn smart devices.

  • With the proliferation of activity-tracking devices and other smart tools, more users leverage these personal informatics technologies to track their physical and fitness-related activities. The research on the benefits (and limitations) of these devices tends to focus on the use of a single tool, leaving out the interactions among multiple technologies, and how these interactions influence the way users perceive their affordances. Building from an ecological perspective, I extend this research by providing insight into the competitive and complementary relationships among activity tracking devices and other fitness-related and personal informatics technologies within the device ecology of technologies around the user. The affordances of these devices are therefore not enacted in isolation but are relational to understanding of other technological options and differing personal preferences and goals of the user.

  • The basic physical principles involved in the operation of monolithic magnetic sensors are reviewed and technological aspects outlined. More or less conventional devices based on Hall effect, magnetoresistance or current path deflection are described. It is shown that such sensors with 2, 3, 4 or 5 terminal contacts are achievable with standard silicon integrated circuit process. Several kinds of magnetodiodes (p+nn+,p+n, Schottky, MOS, memory, CMOS) have been fabricated on Si and on SOS films and present attractive properties. Finally, the magneto-transistor family is discussed with emphasis to split-terminals, CMOS, unijunction and fila-mentary devices.

  • Manufacturing devices must be integrated for constructing CIM environment, but integration of heterogeneous system meets several economical and technological difficulties. In this case, MMS(Manufacturing Message Specification) can be an effective method, but it has problems which MMS products are generally very expensive and majority of the existing manufacturing devices do not support MMS. This paper describes the development of a gateway for Non-MMS-Compatible CNC machine tools to serve MMS and the implementation of OSI(Open System Interconnection) upper layer on TCP/IP. The developed system is applied to construct cell controller with heterogeneous devices under CIM environment and to evaluate interoperability and portability.

  • Technological advance of power elcetronic devices using semiconductor switches in last several decades, invoke the increase of switching devices' penetration in the system like STATCOM or HVDC and also, increase the difficulty to adjust switching characteristics in the virtual simulating configuration, which are not capable of reflect the detailed phenomena. To investigate harmful effect of switching devices into the grid, detailed modeling of power electronic devices are necessary, and the first step for entire grid modelling is simulate power system in time domain model. In this paper, simple two bus system with synchronous generator and infinite bus on the other side has been compromised in two simulation environment, using PSS/E and Matlab/Simulink. Comparing the result of two simulation result will give answers to the fundamental difference between two type of simulation environment.

  • Patent and utility indicate international competitiveness in the knowledge-based society of the $21^{st}$century where both the quantity and quality of the nation's scientific intelligence and innovative technology represent key criteria to evaluate its strength. Thus, discerning the trends of patents is inevitable for further development. This research is centered on apprehending the technological current of the functional clothing of Korea, through an analysis of patents and utility models. The number of patent applications in Korea was low until the mid-1990s. However, it began to grow rapidly in the 2000s and the number of patents surpassed the number of utility starting in 2006. The technological level of invention in this field has been turned into a higher level. The IPC code with the strongest application was the field related to temperature controllable clothing (A41D 13/005), followed by surgeon or patient apparel related fields (A41D 13/12), and reflective or luminous safety devices (A41D 13/01).The main technological idea was to give functionality that could protect the human body from various hazards and represents the goal of various applied techniques. About 66% of domestic patent applications belong to individuals; however, the proportion of corporate or institutional applications(including universities) remains poor. Consequently, more systematic and long-term support for research on patents is required.

  • Radio frequency (RF) microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have been pursued for more than a decade as a solution of high-performance on-chip fixed, tunable and reconfigurable circuits. This paper reviews our research work on RF MEMS switches and switching circuits in the past five years. The research work first concentrates on the development of lateral DC-contact switches and capacitive shunt switches. Low insertion loss, high isolation and wide frequency band have been achieved for the two types of switches; then the switches have been integrated with transmission lines to achieve different switching circuits, such as single-pole-multi-throw (SPMT) switching circuits, tunable band-pass filter, tunable band-stop filter and reconfigurable filter circuits. Substrate transfer process and surface planarization process are used to fabricate the above mentioned devices and circuits. The advantages of these two fabrication processes provide great flexibility in developing different types of RF MEMS switches and circuits. The ultimate target is to produce more powerful and sophisticated wireless appliances operating in handsets, base stations, and satellites with low power consumption and cost.
