Solid materials of ammonia sources with SCR have been considered for the application of lean NOx reduction in automobile industry, to overcome complex problems of liquid urea based SCR. These solid materials produce ammonia gas directly with proper heating and can be packaged by compact size, because of high volumetric ammonia density. Among ammonium salts and metal ammine chlorides, calcium ammine chloride was focused on this paper due to low decomposition temperature. In order to make calcium ammine chloride in lab-scale, simple reactor and glove box was designed and built with ammonium gas tank, regulator, and sensors. Basic test conditions of charging ammonia gas to anhydrous calcium chloride are chosen from equilibrium vapor pressure by Van't Hoff plot based on thermodynamic properties of materials. Synthetic method of calcium ammine chloride were studied for different durations, temperatures, and pressures with proper ammonia gas charged, as a respect of ammonia gas adsorption rate(%) from simple weight calculations which were confirmed by IC. Also, lab-made calcium ammine chloride were analyzed by TGA and DSC to clarify decomposition step in the equations of chemical reaction. To understand material characteristics for lab-made calcium ammine chloride, DA, XRD and FT-IR analysis were performed with published data of literature. From analytical results, water content in lab-made calcium ammine chloride can be discovered and new test procedures of water removal were proposed.

In the case of the password-based PKI technology, because it protects by using the password which is easy that user memorizes the private key, he has the problem about the password exposure. In addition, in the system of electronic bidding, the illegal use using the authentic certificate of the others increases. Recently, in order to solve this problem, the research about the PKI technology using the biometrics is actively progressed. If the bio information which the user inputs for the bio authentication is converted to the template, the digest access authentication in which the security is strengthened than the existing authentication technology can be built. Therefore, in this paper, we had designed and developed the system of electronic bidding which it uses the most widely used fingerprint information in the biometrics, it stores the user fingerprint information and certificate in the fingerprint security token and can authenticate the user. In case of using the system of electronic bidding of the public key infrastructure using the fingerprint information proposed in this paper the agent bid problem that it uses the certificate of the others in not only user authentication intensification but also system of electronic bidding can be concluded.

In order to construct B-ISDN, it is inevitable to introduce optical fiber of low loss and wide bandwidth. Coincidently, high count optical fiber cable is solely important to form optical subscriber network. The best structure of high count optical fiber cable to achieve multi-splicing as well as high density at the same time is the one of taking optical ribbon as a unit of accomodation. However, since optical ribbon has its own width. optical loss due to length difference during the bending of ribbon cable unit occurs in relatively easy way. Therefore, care should be taken during its manufacturing and storage. In t\1::; paper, strain, bending radius and lateral pressure of each fiber in ribbon due to the bending of ribbon cable unit are caculated theoretically. Hence, we have measured optical loss of each fiber as function of unit bending radius, when we bent the ribbon cable unit on the various reel. We found that the result accords well with the theoretical analysis. The result shows the importance to determine proper radius of reel used in ribbon cable manufacturing and storage. orage.

The adsorption mechanism of Cs-137 in low level radioactive solution by vermiculite treated with Na ion is studied in order to investigate its effective utilization for the radioactive effluent treatment. The beneficial role of Na-vermiculite is that Na ion can induce the wider c-axis spacing in which Cs ion can be sorbed in vermiculite. Cation exchange capacity and distribution coefficient of cesium seems to be influenced by the variation of c-axis spacing of vermiculite. Comparative identification and detection with the characteristic analyses of X-ray diffraction and electron diffraction patterns, diffrential thermal analysis and electron microscopy of Na-, K- and Cs-vermiculite are studied for the phemomena of Cs adsorption by vermiculite. This importance of the utilization in terms of adsorption and fixation of cesium involving vermiculite is discussed. It is found that the Na-vermiculite is valuable outside charging material for high level radioactive liquid waste storage tank of underground to protect the pollution of the underground water.

The caches in distributed shared memory systems enhance the performance by reducing memory access latency and communication overhead, but they must solve the cache coherence problem. This paper proposes a new directory protocol to solve the cache coherence problem and to improve the system performance in distributed shared memory systems. To maintain the cache coherence of shared data, processors within a limited distance reduce the communication overhead by using a bit-vector like the full directory scheme. Processors over a limited distance store pointers in a directory pool. Since the bit-vector and the directory pool remove the unnecessary cache invalidations, the proposed scheme reduces the communication traffic and improves the system performance. The dynamic limited directory scheme reduces the communication traffic up to 66 percents compared with the limited directory scheme and the number of directory access up to 27 percents compared with the dynamic pointer allocation scheme.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of thickness on the degree of cure of dual-cured composite core. 2, 4, 6, 8 mm thickness Luxacore Dual and Luxacore Self (DMG Inc, Hamburg, Germany) core composites were cured by bulk or incremental filling with halogen curing unit or self-cure mode The specimens were stored at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours and the Knoop's hardness of top and bottom surfaces were measured. The statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA and Tukey's test at p = 0.05 significance level. In self cure mode, polymerization is not affected by the thickness. In Luxacore dual, polymerization of the bottom surface was effective in 2, 4 and 6 (incremental) mm specimens. However the 6 (bulk) and 8 (bulk, incremental) mm filling groups showed lower bottom/top hardness ratio (p < 0.05). Within the limitation of this experiment, incremental filling is better than bulk filling in case of over 4 mm depth, and bulk filling should be avoided.

X-ray detector는 의료용, 산업용 등 다양한 분야에서 사용되어지고 있으며 기존의 Analog X-ray 방식의 환경오염, 저장공간 부족, 실시간 분석의 어려움 등의 문제점들을 해결하기 위하여 Digital X-ray로의 전환과 연구가 활발하며 이에 따른 관심도 높아지고 있는 살점이다. Digital X-ray detector는 p-영역과 n-영역 사이에 아무런 불순물을 도핑하지 않은 진성반도체(intrinsic semiconductor) 층을 접합시킨 이종접합 PIN 구조의 photodiode 이다. 이 소자는 역바이어스를 가해주면 p영역과 n영역 사이에서 캐리어 (carrier)가 존재하지 않는 공핍 영역이 발생하게 된다. 이런 공핍 영역에서 광흡수가 일어나면, 전자-정공 쌍이 발생한다. 그리고, 발생한 전자-정공 쌍에 전압이 역방향으로 인가되는 경우, 전자는 양의 전극으로 이동하고, 정공은 음의 전극으로 이동한다. 이와 같이, 발생한 캐리어들을 검출하여 전기적인 신호로 변환 시킨다. 고해상도의 Digital X-ray detector를 만들기 위해서는 누설전류에 의한 noise 감소와 소자의 높은 안정성과 내구성을 위한 높은 breakdown voltage를 가져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Digital X-ray detector의 leakage current 감소와 breakdown voltage를 높이기 위하여 guradring과 gettering technology를 사용하여 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. 기판으로는 $10k\Omega{\cdot}cm$ resistivity를 갖으며, n-type <111>인 1mm 두께의 4인치 Si wafer를 사용하였다. 그리고 pixel pitch는 $100{\mu}m$이며 active area는 $80{\mu}m{\times}80{\mu}m$인 $32\times32$ array를 형성하여 X-ray를 조사하여 소자의 특성을 평가 하였다.

지금까지 해외의 여러 달 궤도선에서 달의 영상을 다양한 방법으로 관측한 것에서 알 수 있듯이 영상 관측은 달 탐사에서 중요한 부분이다. 특히 그 중에서 입체 영사기(Stereo Imager)는 달의 3차원적 영상을 관측하여 달 표면의 구조를 파악할 수 있고 분광 카메라(Hyperspectral Camera)는 달 표면을 이루고 있는 물질을 분광 정보를 통해서 알아낼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라가 2020년경 독자적인 달 궤도선을 계획하고 있는 것에 발맞추어 이 두 관측 장비를 설계해 보았다. 본 연구에서 설계한 탑재체는 하나의 광학계를 이용해 가시광 영역에서 동시에 입체 영상과 분광 영상을 얻을 수 있는 장치이며, 달 표면에서의 궤도선의 속도와 저장 가능한 정보의 양을 고려하여 100 km의 고도에서 속도를 1.6 km/s로 가정할 때 interline CCD가 17.5 m의 공간 분해능을 갖기 위해 92 frame/s 이상의 frame rate로 관측을 수행할 수 있게 하였다. 특히 분광 카메라는 wedge filter를 사용하여 광학계의 부담을 줄였으며 검출기로는 interline CCD를 사용하여 channel 수를 조절할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 달 표면을 구성하는 입자의 크기에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있는 편광판도 설치 하였다. 시험 모델의 문제점을 분석하여 새롭게 개선된 탑재체를 설계하여 개발하였다. 렌즈를 수정해 vignetting과 왜곡 현상을 보정하였고 전체 무게를 1.5 kg으로 줄여서 시험 모델보다 30% 이상 줄일 수 있었다. 파장 분해능은 20nm로 시험모델보다 더 개선된 분해능을 얻을 수 있었다. 출력 효율의 증대를 위해 power board의 수정을 수행하였다.
