A benzene synthesizer was manufactured and has been used for the treatment of the various samples such as wood, charcoal, shell and soil for radiocarbon dating using liquid scintillation counter. The experimental conditions were optimized in each successive step of the synthesis of carbon dioxide, acetylene and the final product of benzene. Fifteen hours operation of the benzene synthesizer leads to product yields consistently in excess of 85% based on the content of calcium carbonate for the organic samples. Purity of the synthesized benzene was measured to be more than 99.9% by GC/MS.

A conventional Grimm-type glow discharge source was constructed and applied to radio-frequency(13.56MHz) discharge for metal and ceramic analysis. We investigated the emission spectrum for aluminium and aluminium oxide and the influence of discharge operating paramaters including argon pressure, rf-power and DC-bias voltages at the sample-side electrode. Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) also was used to investigate the effect of rf-sputtering on the microstructure formation of the aluminium oxide. Linear analytical calibration curves were constructed for Manganese and zinc element in samples of low alloy steel(BAS 401-405) and brass(NIST 1108-1117).

증착법을 이용하여 $Sm(Co_{1-x}Fe_{x})$ 및 $Sm_{2}(Co_{1-x}Fe_{x})_{17}$(X=0, 0.3,0.5,0.7)박막을 제작하여 조성변화 및 열처리 온도 변화에 따른 자기적 성질의 변화에 대해 검토 하였다. Fe의 양이 증가 할 수록 포화자화 값은 증가 하지만 각형비는 감소하였고 보자력도 약간 감소하는 경향을 보였다. $Sm(Co_{0.5}Fe_{0.5})_{5}$ 조성박막의 경우, $800^{\circ}C$, 20분 열처리에 의해 약 6.1MGOe의 $(BH)_{max}$을 보였다. 본 박막자석의 자기적 성질의 증대를 위해서는 시료제작 방법의 개선이 필요하다고 사료 된다.

마이크로파 에너지로서 현미경 관찰을 위한 생체물질을 고정할 때, 고정효과는 화학 고정액을 사용할 때와 비교하여 보다 우수한 또는 적어도 동일한 고정효과를 볼 수 있다는 것은 알려진 사실이다. 그러나 기존의 마이크로파 오븐을 사용하여 생체물질을 고정하면 고정 정도에 일정성이 없는데, 이는 마이크로파가 균일하게 조사되지 않고 고정에 적절하도록 마이크로팍의 강도를 조절하기 어려우며, 이로 인하여 정확한 고정온도의 측정이 불가능하기 때문으로 생각된다. 이 연구에서는 마이크로파가 조사되는 동안 시료의 온도를 측정할 수 없는 기존의 마이크연.파 오븐의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 비접촉식 적외선 온도 감응기를 장착한 마이크로파 오븐을 개발하였으며 고정효과를 관찰하기 위하여는 포유류의 기준 조직으로 알려진 생쥐의 신장을 고정하였다 고정효과는 전체적인 구조와 세부 구조의 보존이 모두 우수하였고 최적의 고정온도는 28$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$(완충용액 20 ml, 10초) 이었다. 이와같이 고정된 재료는 고정효과 뿐만 아니라 염색성이 좋아서 조직화학 반응이 우수하고, 냉동절편법과 연계했을 때 전체 절편제작 과정이 2~4시간 내에 완료될 수 있었다 이때 절편의 질(질)은 화학 고정액이나 냉동절편 법에 의하여 제작된 것 보다 우수하였다.

In this experiment, a three dimensional structure analysis was carried out to examine the surface defects of semiconductor made artificially on known scale. It was investigated the three dimensional imaging according to the sample depth and the thermal diffusivity as well as the carrier transport properties. The thermal diffusivity measurement of the intrinsic GaAs semiconductor was also analyzed by the difference of frequency-dependence photoacoustic signals from the sample surface of different conditions. Thermal properties such as thermal diffusion length or thermal diffusivity of the Si wafer with and without defects on the surface were obtained by interpreting the frequency dependence of the PA signals. As a result, the photoacoustic signal is found to have the dependency on the shape and depth of the defects so that their structure of the defects can be analyzed. This method demonstrates the possibility of the application to the detection of the defects, cracks, and shortage of circuits on surface or sub-surface of the semiconductors and ceramic materials as a nondestructive testing(NDT) and a nondestructive evaluation(NDE) technique.

With increasing demand for fast and reliable, yet economical data storage devices, the role of optical disk technology is becoming more important. In recent years, advanced laser technology combined with new materials has given the competitive edge over the traditional magnetic memory devices both in memory capacity and reliability of data retrieval. Continuing effort is being put into developing smaller and more complex structures for optical disks to increase their memory density. Characterization of such multilayered structure requires not only high spatial resolution for observation but also laborious specimen preparation. In this paper, the method of preparing optical disk specimens for TEM characterization is described in detail. The microstructural features in optical disks observed by TEM are also discussed.

For the determination of chlorine in uranium compound, analytical methods by using a steam distillation and a pyrohydrolysis have been developed. The steam distillation apparatus was composed of steam generator, distilling flask and condenser etc. The samples were prepared with an aliquot of LiCl standard solution and a simulated spent nuclear fuel. A sample aliquot was mixed with a solution containing 0.2 M ferrous ammonium sulfate-0.5 M sulfamic acid 3 mL, phosphoric acid 6 mL and sulfuric acid 15 mL. The chloride was then distilled by steam at the temperature of $140^{\circ}C$ until a volume of $90{\pm}5\;mL$ is collected. The pyrohydrolysis equipment was composed of air introduction system, water supply, quartz reaction tube, combustion tube furnace, combustion boat and absorption vessel. The chloride was separated from powdered sample which is added with $U_3O_8$ accelerator, by pyrohydrolysis at the temperature of $950^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour in a quartz tube with a stream of air of 1 mL/min supplied from the water reservoir at $80^{\circ}C$. The chlorides collected in each absorption solution by two methods was diluted to 100 mL and measured with ion chromatography to determine the recovery yield. For the ion chromatographic determination of chlorine in molten salt retained in a metal ingot, the chlorine was separated by means of pyrohydrolysis after air and dry oxidation, and grinding for the sample.

In this study, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immuno-chromatographic technique were combined to fabricate immuno-strip sensors for the detection of Legionella pneumophila. The immuno-strip sensor was manufactured with four different membranes. A nitrocellulose membrane was used to immobilize capture antibody and generate signals due to the high affinity to antibodies, and glass fiber membranes were used as a conjugate release pad and a sample application pad. A cellulose membrane was used as an absorption pad to induce sample flow by the capillarity. Colorimetric signals produced by sandwich immuno-reaction and enzyme reaction could be analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively within 30 min. Under the given experimental conditions, sensor signals with L. pneumophila samples were observed qualitatively by naked eyes and measured quantitatively in a range of $1.3{\times}10^3-1.3{\times}10^6CFU/mL$ with a digital camera and home-made image analysis software.

Using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy, we analyzed the change of effective focal volume of a confocal system with light intensity. The fluorescence correlation spectroscopy system was home-built in accordance with the He-Ne laser with a wavelength of 632.8 nm, and two kinds of samples (AlexaFluor657 and Quantum dot655) suitable for the wavelength of the laser beam were used. For each sample, we analyzed and compared the correlation functions obtained while changing the intensity of the light source in a range of 1~50 ${\mu}W$. The result shows that the radius of the focal area increases linearly through the increase of particle number and diffusion time in response to an intensity change in weak light below 10 ${\mu}W$. In the higher intensity region (>10~15 ${\mu}W$), the increasing rate of particle number and diffusion time keep increasing but at a much slower rate. Through this result, it was also found that the radius increasing rate of the focal area was reduced however, the radius still increased slightly.

The application of microwave technology to synthesis of polymer in solvent media has been shown by the synthesis of copper phthalocyanine (CUPc). The increase of synthetic yield-was demonstrated successfully in this study. A power variable microwave synthetic system has been developed with modifying cavity of domestic microwave oven and attaching microwave power controller. The properties of the specimen synthesized at various condition under the conventional thermal processing and microwave processing has been characterized by the means of chemical analysis, X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and particle size analysis (PSA).
