Abstract: An analog front-end circuit includes a hall bias correction loop circuit configured to correct a sensing voltage of a hall sensor by adjusting a hall bias current flowing in the hall sensor while tracking a change in the sensing voltage of the hall sensor based on a temperature change, an offset correction loop circuit configured to correct an offset correction voltage while tracking an offset change of the hall sensor and an offset change of an amplifier circuit based on the temperature change, the amplifier circuit configured to amplify and output the sensing voltage of the hall sensor, corrected through at least one of the hall bias correction loop circuit and the offset correction loop circuit, and an analog-digital converter configured to convert an output voltage of the amplifier circuit into sensing data and output the sensing data.

Abstract: A catalyst for fuel cells and a method of manufacturing the catalyst are disclosed. The catalyst forms shells in a dense structure so as to prevent elution of a transition metal and increases dispersibility through hydrophilization of the surface of the catalyst so as to be uniformly dispersed when an ink for forming a fuel cell electrode is manufactured. The catalyst may thus increase the performance and durability of a fuel cell.

Abstract: Devices and methods for joining a first and second tissue in a patient are disclosed that include a base with a plurality of recurved tines oriented to a tine axis and extending from a first surface of the base. The tines provide unidirectional traction of the first tissue along the tine axis toward the first surface. The first tissue is secured to the first surface of the device at the plurality of recurved tines and the second tissue is secured to the device at a second surface opposite the first surface to join the first and second tissues.

Abstract: Disclosed are an electrode for a membrane-electrode assembly, a method of manufacturing the same and a membrane-electrode assembly using the same. The electrode may include the pores and pore density around a catalyst contained in the electrode may be selectively increased using a thermally decomposable chemical blowing agent, thereby improving mass transfer through the catalyst.

Abstract: Devices and methods for joining a first and second tissue in a patient are disclosed that include a base with opposed first and second surfaces, and a plurality of recurved tines oriented to a tine axis and extending from the first surface of the base. The base defines four suture holes extending through the first and second surfaces of the base and configured to receive at least one suture passing between the first and second surfaces of the base. The plurality of recurved tines provides unidirectional traction of the first tissue along the tine axis toward the first surface to secure the device to the first tissue. The device is secured to the second tissue at the second surface with the at least one suture secured to at least one anchor secured to the second tissue.

Abstract: Disclose is a method of manufacturing catalyst ink for a fuel cell, and particularly the method includes removing eluted transition metal from a noble-metal/transition-metal alloy catalyst.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a catalyst for a fuel cell which may not be poisoned by an ionomer. Specifically, the method includes: loading a catalyst on a support, coating a carbon layer having a predetermined thickness on the surface of the support, and exposing the catalyst to the outside by removing at least a part of the carbon layer.
