In this invited paper, the authors give an overview of the new design technology for a metallic backplane-less metamaterial(MM) absorber and discuss a selection of examples. In contrast to a common MM absorber structure, the metallic pattern layer of the presented structure is placed facing toward the incident wave propagation direction to reduce the radar cross section(RCS) due to the metallic pattern itself at frequencies other than the targeted absorption frequency bands. The ability of the MM backplane-less absorber to exhibit broadband absorption performance and irregular surface applications will be discussed.

In the present study, the improvement of absorption characteristics on combined heat and mass transfer process in a falling film of a vertical absorber by change of geometric parameters were studied experimentally and analytically. The energy and diffusion equations are solved simultaneously to give the temperature and concentration variations at the liquid solution-refrigerant vapor interface and at the wall. Absorption behaviors of heat and mass transfer were analyzed through falling film of the LiBr aqueous solution contacted by refrigerant vapor in the absorber. Effects of film Reynolds number, geometric parameters by insert device (spring) and flow pattern on heat and mass transfer performances have been also investigated. Especially, effects of the flow pattern by geometric parameters have been considered to observe the total heat and mass transfer rates through falling film along the absorber. As a numerical and experimental result, maximum absorption rate was shown at the wave-flow by insert device (spring). The error ranges between experiment and analysis were from 5.8 to 12％ at Re$_{f}$ > 100.0.

Semiconductors performing digital clocking are a main source of radiated emission noise. Therefore, the most secure method of reducing emission noise is to reduce emission radiated from semiconductors; an application of an absorber to the surface of semiconductors is one of these methods, too. However, in reality, it is difficult to achieve as much effect of noise reduction as expected by using only absorber. It is confirmed by experiment in this paper that a loop area within chip has no correlation with radiated emission noise and it is clarified why the existing absorber fails to achieve a satisfactory effect of emission noise reduction. Besides, a new type of chip coating absorber has been developed which can cover up to semiconductor out lead by using ferrite coating material of ferrite/epoxy acrylate substance using only permeability loss out of electromagnetic wave reduction characteristics of materials. As a result of evaluating radiated emission noise by applying this coating absorber to semiconductor device, it could be confirmed that emission noise decreased from about 3 ㏈ up to 20㏈ depending on frequency.

With the rapid progress of electronics and radio communication technology, human enjoys greater freedom in information communication. However, EMW(Electro-Magnetic Wave) environments have become more complicate and difficult to control. Thus, international organizations, such as the American National Standard Institution(ANSI), Federal Communications Commission(FCC), the Comite Internationale Special des Perturbations Radio Electrique(CISPR), etc, have provided standard for controlling the EM wave environments and for the countermeasure of the electromagnetic compatibility(EMC). In this paper, fabrication of the smart EMW absorber which has heat radiating function and high performance absorption abilities were suggested. Furthermore, we prospected future smart EMW absorbers. The designed smart EMW absorber is fabricated following process. Firstly, we applied high temperature heat treated to a mixture of Iron-oxide($Fe_2O_3$) and ceramics. Secondly, we applied low temperature heat treated to the mixture of heat treated material and a carbon material. Lastly, we made apertures on the absorber. The designed smart EM wave absorber has the absorption ability of more than 20 dB from 2 GHz to 2.45 GHz band, respectively. Thus, it is respected that these results can be applied as various EMC devices in electronic, communication, and controlling systems.

The hydrodynamic performance of a floating-type OWC (Oscillating Water Column) chamber is studied numerically and experimentally in this study. The numerical approach based on two-dimensional linear theory of floating wave absorber was attempted to design an efficient wave energy absorber, while model test was performed in a wave basin to test a performance of designed model and validate the reliability of developed numerical code. The focus of study is placed mainly on the experimental study to evaluate the principal characteristics of the designed OWC chamber in regular waves. The effects of the variation of wave height on OWC device and of air pressure inside chamber are also presented. Finally, the measured results were compared with computed ones, and it was shown that the designed chamber works with high efficiency $(\eta_H>1$ over most of wave lengths covered by present study. It is therefore concluded that the developed code is capable of being successfully employed to design OWC chambers at various ocean environments, even though there exist some minor discrepancies between measured and computed results.

We clarified that it is very important to consider carbon amounts in Ba and Sr ferrites and preparation temperature for Ba and Sr ferrite EM wave absorbers with high quality. In this study, the developed a EM Wave absorber satisfying over 20 dB.

With the development of electromagnetic communication technology and increased use of electromagnetic wave, the countermeasure of EMI(Electromagnetic Interference) becomes more important socially, and interest for the electromagnetic wave absorber has also increased. In this paper, we have studied characteristics of frequency dependency on complex permittivity and complex permeability according to the changes of composition rate and sintering temperature of NiCuZn ferrite also known as electromagnetic wave absorber and further looked into effect of electromagnetic wave absorption properties. From the measurement where the composition of Fe$_2$O$_3$ and ZnO of NiCuZn ferrite was fixed at 49 and 34 mol% respectively while composition of NiO and CuO has been varied at each test, we found out that initial permeability and permittivity were high and the absorbing ability of electromagnetic wave recorded best with loss tangent(${\mu}$r"/${\mu}$r′) displays more than 1 within the frequency band of 2MHz～9.5MHz when the composition ratio of NiO was ranged around 8.5～9.5 mol% and the sintering temperature was 1,080$^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, we propose a novel sub-wavelength unit cell metamaterial absorber using multi-layer structure. The proposed absorber consists of 4 layers, and each layer has a spiral resonator connected by a via hole. This structure increases inductance of the unit cell, and therefore the resonant frequency can shift to lower frequency. We optimized the proposed absorber, and the electrical size of the unit cell is dramatically reduced to 0.013 times of the wavelength. The performance of the proposed absorber is demonstrated with full-wave simulation and measurement results. An absorption rate exceeding 97% is achieved at 1.74GHz. In addition, the proposed absorber attains a high absorption rate of 90% for different polarization and incident angles.

A design method for the electromagnetic wave absorber with the attenuation over 20 dB at a frequency was formulated. In addition to the matching boundary which is determined by the theoretical equation, several limiting conditions due to the fabrication process were examined. Based on the study on the effects of the variance of the thickness and permittivity on the electromagnetic wave absorbing characteristics, a mean to exclude such effects was also included in the proposed design method. The ranges of variables were limited as the frequency of 9.45 GHz and .epsilon.' = 5 ~ 30, when the effect of .epsilon. " was not considered.
