Abstract: An apparatus for producing an SiC substrate, by which an SiC substrate having a thin base substrate layer is able to be produced, while suppressing deformation or breakage, includes a main container which is capable of containing an SiC base substrate, and which produces a vapor pressure of a vapor-phase species containing elemental Si and a vapor-phase species containing elemental C within the internal space by means of heating; and a heating furnace which contains the main container and heats the main container so as to form a temperature gradient, while producing a vapor pressure of a vapor-phase species containing elemental Si within the internal space. The main container has a growth space in which a growth layer is formed on one surface of the SiC base substrate, and an etching space in which the other surface of the SiC base substrate is etched.

Abstract: A method of simultaneously estimating a movement and shape of a target vehicle using a preliminary distribution model of a tracklet may have high reliability in estimation performance even with a change in heading of the target vehicle while being implemented in real time by setting the preliminary distribution model defined by a small number of representative tracklet appearance points using a tracklet defined in an orthogonal coordinate system and a linear correspondence relationship between a preliminary distribution model of the tracklet and a central position of the target vehicle and performing many-to-one data association between tracklet outputs. The method of simultaneously estimating the movement and shape of the target vehicle using the preliminary distribution model of the tracklet is performed by a signal processing device configured to process signals emitted from a plurality of radars mounted at a host vehicle and reflected from the target vehicle.

Abstract: Proposed is a phase shift introduction method, a structure, and a circuit device for eliminating or minimizing a risk associated with dissimilar materials, solving in principle a problem of mixing of a signal current and a control current that occurs due to DC connection of a phase shifter to a signal line, and stably and reliably providing a phase shift that is desired to be introduced without being adversely effected by noise generated by an ambient magnetic field, which is generated due to use of an external power supply. A structure according to the present invention includes a phase shifter 101 and a closed-loop circuit 103 that is directly used for computation or storage, and a quantum phase shift is generated in the closed-loop circuit 103 by using a fractional flux quantum captured by the phase shifter 101 that is DC-separated from the closed-loop circuit 103.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an immunosuppressant comprising TSAHC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. TSAHC treatment suppressed the expression and secretion of cytokines/chemokines such as IL6, IL1?, TNF?, CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL6, CXCL8, CCL2, CCL5, CCL20, CXCL10 and CCR10 according to the expression of TM4SF5 gene and protein, and the cytokines or chemokines mediated by the expression of TM4SF5 induced abnormalities in the inflammatory response and metabolic function of liver tissues, hepatic epithelial cells and macrophages, and correlated with liver tissue damage and immune cell recruit in TM4SF5 transgenic animals. Therefore, a composition comprising TSAHC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient can be effectively used as an immunosuppressant.

Abstract: Mixed-phase TiO2 nanofibers prepared via a sol-gel technique followed by electrospinning and calcination are provided as photocatalysts. The calcination temperature is adjusted to control the rutile phase fraction in TiO2 nanofibers relative to the anatase phase. Post-calcined TiO2 nanofibers composed of 38 wt % rutile and 62 wt % anatase exhibited the highest initial rate constant of UV photocatalysis. This can be attributed to the combined influences of the fibers' specific surface areas and their phase compositions.
