Composite scintillation screens on a base of Gd_1.2Y_1.8Ga_2.5Al_2.5O₁₂:Ce (GYAGG) scintillator have been evaluated for neutron detection. Besides the powdered scintillator, the composite includes ⁶LiF particles; both are merged with a binder and deposited onto the light-reflecting aluminum substrate. Results obtained demonstrates that screens are suitable for use with a silicon photomultiplier readout to create a prospective solution for a compact and low-cost thermal neutron sensor. Composite GYAGG/⁶LiF scintillation screen shows a pretty matched sensitivity and γ-background rejection with a widely used ZnS/⁶LiF screens however, possesses forty times faster response.

In this paper, we present a low-voltage low-dropout voltage regulator (LDO) for a system-on-chip (SoC) application which, exploiting the multiplication of the Miller effect through the use of a current amplifier, is frequency compensated up to 1-nF capacitive load. The topology and the strategy adopted to design the LDO and the related compensation frequency network are described in detail. The LDO works with a supply voltage as low as 1.2 V and provides a maximum load current of 50 mA with a drop-out voltage of 200 mV: the total integrated compensation capacitance is about 40 pF. Measurement results as well as comparison with other SoC LDOs demonstrate the advantage of the proposed topology.

The amorphous vanadium oxide thin films for thin-film rechargeable lithium batteries were fabricated by r.f. reactive sputtering at room temperature. As the experimental parameter, oxygen partial pressure was varied during sputtering. At high oxygen partial pressures(>30%), the as-deposited films, constant current charge/discharge characteristics were carried out in 1M $LiPF_6$, EC:DMC+1:1 liquid electrolyte using lithium metal as anode. The specific capacity of amorphous $V_2O_5$ after 200cycles of operation at room temperature was higher compared to crystalline $V_2O_5$. The amorphous vanadium oxide thin film and crystalline film showed about 60$\mu$Ah/$\textrm{cm}^2\mu\textrm{m}$ and about 38$\mu$Ah/$\textrm{cm}^2\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. These results suggest that the battery capacity of the thin film vanadium oxide cathode strongly depends on the crystallinity.

Let { $A_{>o}$ t= exp(M log t)} $_{t}$ be a dilation group where M is a real n$\times$n matrix whose eigenvalues has strictly positive real part, and let $\rho$be an $A_{t}$ -homogeneous distance function defined on ( $R^{n}$ ). Suppose that K is a function defined on ( $R^{n}$ ) such that /K(x)/$\leq$ (No Abstract.see full/text) for a decreasing function defined on (t) on R+ satisfying where wo(x)=│log│log (x)ll. For f$\in$ $L_{1}$ ( $R^{n}$ ), define f(x)=sup t>0 Kt*f(x)=t-v K(Al/tx) and v is the trace of M. Then we show that \ulcorner is a bounded operator of $L_{-{1}( $R^{n}$ ) into $L^1$,$\infty$( $R^{n}$).

This paper relates 10% shrink from $0.13{\mu}m$ design for logic devices as well as input and output (I/O) circuits, different from the previous shrink methodologies which shrink only core device. Thin gate oxide was changed to decoupled plasma nitridation(DPN) oxide as a thin gate oxide (1.2V) to reduce the flicker noise, resulting in three to five times lower flicker noise than pre-shrink process. Unavoidable issue by shrink is capacitor for this normally metal insulator metal (MIM). To solve this issue, 20% higher unit MIM capacitor ($1.2fF/{\mu}m^2$) was developed and its performance were evaluated.

Through component regulation and morphological construction, it is of considerable significance to develop high-activity and high-stability electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution in electrolytic water. In the hydrothermal process, Mo-doped nickel-based sulfide catalysts (Mo-NiS-Fx) with a variety of morphologies (prisms, rods, flakes, and cones) were created by adding NH₄F with varying masses. Among these, the flaky Mo-NiS-F1.2 exhibited exceptional performance towards electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction, surpassing most similar catalysts with an overpotential of 79 mV at 10 mA cm^-2 and a Tafel slope of 49.8 mV dec^-1. Significantly, Mo-NiS-F1.2 maintained its high activity for hydrogen evolution over 60 h at a current density of 10 mA cm^-2, making it suitable for widespread commercial application. According to the experimental findings, an electrocatalyst with a high surface area and a porous structure is better suited to exposing more gas transfer routes and active sites, which would encourage the hydrogen evolution reaction. This study presents a straightforward procedure for creating electrocatalysts with a range of morphologies, which can serve as a model for the creation of catalysts for use in industrial manufacturing.

The purpose of this study is to observe the corrosion characteristics of five dental amalgams(CAULK FINE CUT, OPTALLOY II, DISPERSALLOY, TYTIN, and VALIANT) in the solutions with fluoride compound through the anodic polarization curve obtained by using a potentiostat. After each amalgam alloy and Hg being triturated, the triturated mass was inserted into the cylindrical metal mold, and condensed by hydraulic pressure(160 kg/$cm^2$). Each specimen was removed from the metal mold. Specimens were polished with the silicone carbide grinding paper 24 hours after condensation and stored at room temperature for 1 week. The anodic polarization curves were employed to compare the corrosion behaviours of the amalgams in 0.9 % saline solution and in the saline solutions with 2.2 ppm, 0.05 %, 2 % NaF, and 8 % $SnF_2$ at $37^{\circ}C$ with 3-electrode potentiostat. After the immersion of specimen in electrolyte for 30 minutes, the potential scan was begun. The potential scan range was -1500m V to + 800m V(vs. S.C.E.) in the working electrode and the scan rate was 50 mV/sec. The results were as follows, 1. The corrosion potential, the potential of anodic current peak, and transpassive potential in the saline solutions with NaF shifted to lower direction than those in normal saline solution, and the current density in the saline solutions with NaF was higher than that in normal saline solution. The differences were increased as the concentrations of NaF became higher. 2. The corrosion potential and transpassive potential in the saline solution with $SnF_2$ shifted to higher direction than those in normal saline solution, and the current density in the saline solution with $SnF_2$ was higher than that in normal saline solution after the corrosion potential. The anodic polarization curves in the saline solution with $SnF_2$ had no outstanding anodic current peak. 3. The corrosion potentials for high-copper amalgams were much higher than those for CAULK FINE CUT and OPTALLOY II in normal saline solution, but, as the concentrations of fluoride compound became higher, the differences in corrosion potentials between them were decreased. The corrosion potentials had the similarity in the saline solution with 2% NaF or 8% $SnF_2$. 4. The current density for TYTIN was the lowest among the others in normal saline solution and in the saline solution with 2.2 ppm or 0.05 % NaF. 5. There was no significant difference in current density between Pd-enriched VALIANT and other high-copper amalgams.

직선운동하는 하전입자의 진행방향에 수직한 평면상에 서로 직교하는 전기장과 자기장을 걸어주면, 하전입자에는 전기장에 의한 힘 $F_E$와 자기장과 속도 v에 의한 로렌츠력 $F_B=q(v{\times}B)$가 동시에 작용하게 된다. 이때 Wien 조건 $F_B=-F_E$를 만족하는 질량 $m_A$과, 에너지 $E_A$를 가지는 하전입자 A는 휘지 않고 직선운동을 계속하나, 하전입자 A와 다른 에너지 $E_B(=E_A+{\delta}E)$나 질량 $m_B$ $(=m_A+{\delta}m)$을 가지는 하전입자는 휘게 되며, 그 휘는 정도는 ${\delta}E$나 ${\delta}m$에 비례하게 된다. 이 현상을 이용하여 다양한 종류의 에너지 또는 질량 분석기가 독일, 미국, 일본 등의 분석기기 선진국에서 개발되어 왔고, 전자현미경의 이미지 필터로도 활용되고 있으며, 통상 EXB 필터 또는 발명자의 이름을 딴 Wien 필터로 불리어지고 있다. $E{\times}B$ 필터는 일반적인 하전입자빔 렌즈와 다른 광학특성을 가진다. 예를 들면 3차 이상의 기하 수차만 가지는 일반 렌즈와는 달리 $F_B$, $F_E$ 전자기력에 의해 다양한 2차 기하 수차를 가지게 되며, 초점거리 등의 1차 광학 특성도 일반 렌즈와는 다른 경향을 보여준다. 본 발표에서는 $E{\times}B$ 필터의 전후로 각각 6극자+4극자를 조합시킨 보정기를 배치시켜 필터의 에너지 분해능의 성능을 향상시킬 수 있음을 빔 궤도 방정식을 분석적으로 계산하여 보여준다. 위 에너지 필터 구성에서 4극자는 1차 광학 특성을 조정하는 역할을 하며 6극자는 2차 수차를 줄여주는 역할을 한다. 수치해석을 통해서는 6극자+4극자를 조합시킨 보정기와 $E{\times}B$ 필터의 좀더 정확한 전극 전압 등의 제어 수치를 추출하고, 빔 궤도 방정식 분석을 통한 수차 보정 알고리즘이 유효함을 보여준다.

As the final experiment to assess the possibility of industrial application of FSC14-75, ethanol productivity from liquefied sweet potato starch was examined in a pilot scale of 300 liters. FSC14-75 produced 6.6％(v/v) of ethanol from 13.3％ of liquefied sweet potato starch in 8 days, and the residual sugar was 3.15％. The corresponding efficiency was 70％ of the theoretical maximum. Since we could isolate unicellular cell and flocculent cell from the fermentation broth, we designated them FSC14-75(S) and FSC14-75(F), respectively. We investigated ethanol productivity of FSC14-75(F) compared with that of FSC14-75(S) from liquefied potato starch in a mini·tar tormentor scale of 2.5 liters. FSC14-75(F) was found more favorable than the counterpart in terms of ethanol productivity, and produced 8.1％(v/v) of ethanol from 15％ of liquefied potato starch with an efficiency of 75％. In a pilot scale fermentation with 15％ of liquefied sweet potato starch, ethanol productivity of FSC14-75(F) reached maximum level of 7.7％(v/v) after 8 days, and the residual sugar was 1.9％. However, the ethanol productivity was not enhanced by a supplementary addition of Thermamyl to the fermentation broth after sterilization.
