We devised a method to control the temperature of a liquid bath as low as $-100^{\circ}C$ using the duty cycle control of a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve controls the flow of liquid nitrogen that we used as a cryogen in this system. By controlling the duty cycle of a solenoid valve using feedback from the measured temperature of the liquid bath, we were able to achieve temperature stability within ${\pm}19mK$ around $-100^{\circ}C$. We also demonstrated that by taking average values of the temperature readings for sequence of measurements from more than one thermometer, it is possible to use this system for the calibration of thermometers within 3 mK. This system and the control method can be used for the precise temperature control in the range between $0^{\circ}C$ and $-100^{\circ}C$, where commercially available precision baths are much expensive and hard to be built in customized configurations.

자동 수직물성관측 뜰개는 매우 유용한 해양관측장비이지만 이에 부착된 CTD의 사후 보정이 불가능하기 때문에 뜰개자료의 정확도 검증이 사후자료관리나 자료활용에 있어 중요한 문제 중 하나이다. 동해 중심층의 염분변화가 국제 Argo프로그램에서 요구하는 정확도 0.01과 유사하기 때문에 동해를 항염분수조로 취급하여 동해에 투하된 뜰개가 관측한 염분자료의 신뢰성을 세 가지 방법을 통하여 검증하였다. 각각의 방법은 1)부근 해역에서 얻은 정확도가 높은 정선 CTD자료와 뜰개자료의 비교, 2)비슷한 시각에 비슷한 해역에서 얻은 뜰개자료의 비교, 3)체류 수심에서 얻은 염분자료의 장기간에 걸친 안정도 및 정확도 검증이다. 세 방법 모두 뜰개에서 얻은 염분자료가 아무런 보정없이도 Argo프로그램이 요구하는 정확도를 만족함을 보여주었다. 동해의 심층 수온이 일정하다는 가정하에 위의 세 가지 방법을 적용하여 얻은 수온값의 정확도 0.01$^{\circ}C$는 Argo프로그램에서 요구하는 정확도의 2배 정도이다. 하지만 동해의 중층 수온은 Argo프로그램이 요구하는 정확도 이상으로 시공간적으로 변화하기 때문에, 위의 결과는 수온 자료가 부정확하다는 것을 의미하지는 않는다. 동해 중층수온의 시공간적 변화를 고려한다면 수온자료의 정확도도 Argo프로그램이 요구하는 것과 큰 차이가 없다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 이 연구에서 검증된 뜰개가 관측한 수온 염분자료 모두 특별한 보정 없이 사용할 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid sensor calibration scheme for mobile crowdsensing applications. As the number of newly produced mobile devices containing embedded sensors continues to rise, the potential to use mobile devices as a sensor data source increases. However, because mobile device sensors are generally of a lower performance and cost than dedicated sensors, sensor calibration is crucial. To enable more accurate measurements of natural phenomena through the use of mobile device sensors, we propose a hybrid sensor calibration scheme for such sensors; the scheme makes use of mobile device sensors and existing sensing infrastructure, such as weather stations, to obtain dense data. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme supports low mean square errors. As a practical application of our proposed scheme, we built a temperature map of a city using six mobile phone sensors and six reference sensors. Thanks to the mobility of the sensors and the proposed scheme, our map presents more detailed information than infrastructure-based measurements.

Lamination is used extensively in various industries. The type of lamination applied to the material depends on the precision level required, which varies for materials needed for everyday use, materials used in high-tech industries, and processes employed to fabricate finished products. Especially in hot lamination, the distribution of the surface temperature of the heating roller is very important to avoid the generation of internal bubbles and ensure flatness of the attached materials, and thus maintain a good standard of quality and productivity. In this study, we have developed a system to monitor the surface temperature of the heating rollerby applying a heterogeneous controller and a non - contact temperature sensor. This monitoring system accurately measures the surface temperature of the heating roller and applies the RS485 MODBUS communication method for easy expansion. Using this system, a laminated prototype was fabricated, and its efficacy for non-contact temperature sensor calibration, Ethernet IP communication, stoppage of the heating roller, and determination of temperature distribution with rotation was examined for its potential usage in industries.

In general industry, TFM(turbine flow meters) as measuring instruments having high reliability are widely used in the trade of petroleum and in the measurement of tap water and hot water. The TFM is performed calibration for using in the field and is mainly calibrated at room temperature. Since accuracy of TFM depends on Reynolds number of fluid, TFM is calibrated at same Reynolds number by changing flow rate. Furthermore, the TFM using a fluid of high temperature should have considered for other factors such as the thermal expansion of the parts and characteristics change is unknown changes in the turbine flow meter accordingly. In this paper, two turbine flowmeter are experimentally studied about characteristics change using the facilities which can change fluid temperature from 6 degree celsius to 90 degree celsius. As a result, the turbine flow meter can be calibrated to minimize the error characteristic at a similar temperature and the actual temperature.

We developed a new systematic calibration procedure and applied it to the calibration of the diffusivity, segregation and TED model of the indium impurity. The TED of the indium impurity was studied under 4 different experimental conditions. Although the indium proved to be susceptible to the TED, the RTA was effective in suppressing the TED effect and in maintaining a steep retrograde profile. Just as in the case of boron, indium demonstrated significant oxidation-enhanced diffusion in silicon and its segregation coefficients at the Si/SiO₂ interface were significantly below 1. In contrast, the segregation coefficient of indium decreased as the temperature increased. The accuracy of the proposed technique has been validated by SIMS data and 0.13-㎛ device characteristics such as Vth and Idsat with errors less than 5% between simulation and experiment.

This paper proposes a novel methodology of systematic global calibration and validates its accuracy and efficiency with application to memory and logic devices. With 175 SIMS profiles which cover the range of conditions of implant and diffusion processes in the fabrication lines, the dominant diffusion phenomenon in each process temperature region has been determined. Using the dual-pearson implant model and fully-coupled diffusion model, the calibration was performed systematically. We applied the globally calibrated process simulator parameters to memory and logic devices to predict the optimum process conditions for target device characteristics.

센서는 센서네트워크와 같은 다양한 센서시스템에 응용되고 있는 핵심부품이다. 그러나 센서는 온도에 따른 출력특성과 비선형성을 가지기 때문에 개발이 쉽지 않다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 센서의 보정과정이 필요 하지만 현재의 센서보정과정에서는 많은 보정시간과 비용을 요구하고 있다. 그러므로 보정시간과 비용을 최소화할 수 있는 보정시스템개발이 필요하다. 본 논문에서 CO 및 $CO_2$ 센서모듈 개발과 현재의 보정방법에서의 문제점들을 해결할 수 있는 다수센서보정시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 시스템은 센서모듈, 시스템보드 및 모니터링프로그램 등으로 구성되며 보정은 최소자승법을 기반 한 회귀분석 방법을 사용한다. 제안한 보정시스템의 구성 및 실험결과에 대해 소개하고 결과를 바탕으로 시스템의 유효성을 검증한다.

Vibration measurements to monitor the condition of machinery and machine elements offers several advantages over traditional methods of nondestructive evaluation. RIST(Research Institute of Industrial Science & Technology) has established a calibration system for accelerometers that measures within a frequency range from 2Hz to 6,300Hz and a temperature range from $-40^{\circ}C$ to $180^{\circ}C$. The calibration procedures are based on the principle of the comparison method. To monitor vibration signals of machinery and machine elements, annular shear type piezoelectric accelerometers employing solid state microelectronics were fabricated. The voltage sensitivity and resonant frequency of fabricated accelerometers was 83mV/g, 23kHz, respectively. This paper discusses the method of fabrication of annular shear type piezoelectric accelerometers and the results of field tests in POSCO(Pohang Iron & Steel Co. LTD.).

To provide standard data of temperature and species concentration in a flame for calibrating the laser based combustion diagnostics, we investigated combustion characteristics of a flat flame burner(Mckennar Product). For various stoichiometric ratios we measured temperature and concentration of OH in the premixed methane/air flame with Coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy and laser induced fluorescence technique, respectively. Assuming the chemical equilibrium condition at the measured temperature, the mole fraction of the OH radical in the flame was obtained and compared with numerical analysis.
