The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute acquired the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory phantom for calibration of germanium detectors used for in vivo measurement of radionuclides deposited in human lungs. The manufacturer inscribed concentric circles as a phoswich detector positioning guides on the phantom's torso plate and its overlay plates, and provided the effective thickness of the chest wall for each plate measured at locations over the circles. However, since the germanium detectors are of different sizes, the areas considered for phoswich detectors were no. longer applicable for the locations of the germanium detectors on the phantom. Therefore, we re-evaluated the effective thickness of the phantom to determine if the manufacturer' s data are valid for germanium detectors in use for in vivo lung counting or if new values must be implemented. Differences no more than 3% in effective thickness were found between the germanium detector regions to be used at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute and the phoswich detector regions prescribed by the manufacturer.

본 연구에서는 $LiNbO_3$ 변조기에 사용되는 진행파형 coplanar-waveguide 형 전극을 제작하였다. 전극 전극두께를 변화시켜 전극을 제작하여 마이크로파 유효굴절율을 조사하였다. $LiNbO_3$ 광변조기 도파로의 유효굴절율과 정합되는 조건인유효굴절율 2.2에 근접합을 알 수 있었다. 또한 진행파형 전극의 반사손실$(S_{11})$, 삽입 손실($S_{21}$) 등을 측정하여 광변조기에 적용할 수 있는 최적조건에 관하여 논의하였다.

The model ice is created at KRISO (Korea Research Institute for Ships and Ocean Engineering) ice basin where model ship is tested to obtain the necessary data in order to design the ice breaking vessels and ocean structures operating in the northern pole sea area. Through the model ship test, ice breaking, clearing, ice-ship and ice-propeller interaction behavior can be obtained. Since mechanical properties of ice plate are required for the model test, some tests are performed to obtain the properties in this paper. First, ultrasonic devide is used to measure the thickness of the model ice plate and the results show the possibility of using ultrasonic method, yet more sophisticated device or special sensors are required to measure the ice thickness completely. And the defection of ice plate is measured using LVDT to compute the characteristic length of ice plate on the fluid, which is used to get the effective Young's modulus of model ice.

De-Laval 노즐에서 경계층 배제두께의 음수현상에 대하여 수학적 모델을 통한 수치 고찰 한 결과 배제두께 뿐만 아니라 다음과 같은 경계층의 특성을 알 수 있었다. (1)온도비($T_w/T_0$)가 작아질수록 경계층 두께가 상대적으로 커진다. (2)운동량두께의 변화도 단열 벽면이 아닌 경우에는, 비압축성(${\rho}=const$) 유체 보다. 온도비가 작을수록 항상 커진다. (3) 경계층 배제두께는 온도비가 작은 경우 음(―)의 값을 나타내고 있어, 유효유동 단면적의 확대 현상을 보이고 있다.

By comparing the measured optical reflection spectra with calculated one by the transfer-matrix method (TMM) in epitaxial wafers for vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs), we have estimated the systematic thickness errors in a simple and nondestructive way. The experimentally confirmed technique is based on the finding that the shape of the reflection spectra depends mainly on a newly defined single parameter, the effective error in the n-mirror layers, and the thickness error in the active cavity simply shifts the Fabry-Perot resonance wavelength. Also shown is that the proposed method is reliable when the relative standard deviation of the random thickness errors is less than 0.005. Because reflection spectra are routinely measured, we can easily estimate the thickness errors nondestructively with high spatial resolution.

Top synthetic spin valves with structure Ta/NiFe/CoFe/Cu/CoFe(P1)/Ru/CoFe(P2)/FeMn/Ta on Si(100) substrate with natural oxide were prepared by dc magnetron sputtering system, and investigated on the magnetoresistance properties and effective exchange bias field. As the thickness of FeMn increased above 150 $\AA$, MR ratio was decreased due to the current shunting effect. As the thickness of free layer decreased below 40$\AA$, MR ratio was reduced rapidly. In case of 40 $\AA$ thick of free layer, spin valve film with a structure Si(100)/Ta(50 $\AA$)/NiFe(27 $\AA$)/CoFe(13 $\AA$)/Cu(26 $\AA$)/CoFe(30 $\AA$)/Ru(7 $\AA$)/CoFe(15 $\AA$)/FeMn(100 $\AA$)/Ta(50 $\AA$) exhibited maximum MR ratio of 7.5 % and an effective exchange bias field of 600 Oe, respectively. Thickness difference dependence in this synthetic spin valve structure on effective exchange field was investigated and interpreted by the analytical method. It should be noted that thickness increase of CoFe(P 1) and decrease of CoFe(P2) in synthetic antiferromagnet leaded to the decrease in effective exchange bias field by experimentally and analytically.

MOS소자의 크기가 작아짐에 따라 gate 유전막의 두께 또한 얇아져야 한다. 두께가 얇아짐에 따라 gate 유전막으로써 기존의 SiO2는 direct tunneling으로 인해 높은 누설전류를 수반한다. 그래서 높은 유전상술르 가지는 물질들에 대한 연구의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 그중 CVD-Ta2O5는 차세대 MOSFET소자기술에 있어서 높은 유전상수($\varepsilon$r+25)와 우수한 step coverage 때문에 각광을 받고 있는 물질중에 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 Ta2O5를 gate를 유전막으로 사용하고 RTN처리와 wet oxidation을 접목시켜 이들의 전기적인 특성을 향상시킬 수 있었다. p-형 wafer 위에 D2와 O2를 사용하여 SiO2(100 )를, NH3를 이용하여 Nitridation(10 )을 전처리로써 각각 실시하였고 그 위에 MOCVD방법으로 Ta2O5를 80 성장시켰다. 첫 번째 시편은 45$0^{\circ}C$ 10min동안 wet oxidation을 시켰고, 두 번째 시편은 $700^{\circ}C$ 60sec동안 NH3 분위기에서 RTN 처리를 하였다. 세 번째 시편은 동일조건으로 RTN 처리후 wet oxidation을 하였다. 그 후 각각의 시편을 capacitor를 제작하고 그 전기적 특성을 관찰하였다. Wet oxidation만을 시킨 시편은 as-deposited Ta2O5 시편에 비해서 -1.5V에서 누설전류는 약 2~3 order정도 감소되었고 accumulation 영역에서의 capacitance 값은 oxide층의 성장(5 )을 무시하면 거의 변화하지 않았다. RTN처리만 된 시편의 경우는 -1.5V에서 누설전류는 2~3order 정도 증가되었지만, accumulation 영역에서 capacitance 값은 거의 2qwork 증가하였다. 이 두가지 공정을 접목시킨 즉 RTN 처리후 wet oxidation 처리된 시편의 경우는 as-deposited Ta2O5 시편에 비해서 -1.5V에서 누설전류는 1 order 정도 감소하였고, accumulation 지역에서의 capacitance 값은 약 2배 증가하였다. 즉 as deposited Ta2O5 시편의 accumulation 지역의 capacitance 값은 12.8 fF/um2으로써 그 유효두께는 27.0 이었지만, RTN 처리후에 wet oxidation 시킨 시편의 accumulation 지역의 capacitance값은 21.2fF/um2으로써 그 유효두께는 16.3 이 되었다. 결론적으로 as deposited Ta2O5 시편에 RTN 처리후 wet oxidation을 실시한 결과 capacitance 값이 약 2배정도 증가하였고 누설전류는 약 1 order 정도 감소됨을 확인하였다.

The design standards, such as AISC-LRFD (2005) and KBC-2005, specify the maximum width-to-thickness ratio that can be used for computing the strength of the concrete-filled tube (CFT), and do not include any formula for computing the strength when the width-to-thickness ratio is over the limit. This paper proposes a strength equation for CFTs with a large width-to-thickness ratio by acknowledging the fact that the stiffened slender steel platehas substantial postbuckling strength, and that it therefore can be more economical to use it. The equation adopts the concept of effective width,which is very useful for plate analysis. By comparing the strengths of AISC2005, KBC2005, and the proposed method with the results of the experiment, where the width-to-thickness ratio was regarded as the main parameter, the applicability of the proposed method was verified.

Neutron reflecting effects in terms of effective multiplication factor have been calculated with varying water or concrete thickness, and gap distance between concrete reflector and a fissile solution system. A numerical calculation of effective multiplication factors has been carried out by using the discrete ordinates method with the help of the computer code, ANISN. It is revealed that the reflecting .effect by thin concrete is lower than that of the identical thickness of water while the effect by thick water is low compared to that of the identical thickness of concrete. It seems that the effective multiplication factors are first decreasing rapidly with gap distance, which is filled with water, between concrete reflector and the fissile solution system, and then decrease slowly over the distance of about 15cm.

Si 태양전지의 기전력 형성에 이용되는 빛의 파장범위$(0.4{\mu}m\leq\lambda\leq0.97{\mu}m)$에서 AM1 스펙트럼과 Si 굴절율을 수학적으로 모델링하고 광반사 방지막$(SiO_2)$의 두께에 따른 Si 태양전지의 유효 광 흡수전력을 전산 모사하였다. 전산 모사로부터 얻어진 Si 태양전지의 유효 광흡수전력은 $SiO_2$막의 두께가 $500\AA$과 $1000\AA$일 때 각각 $520\;W/m^2$와 $450\;W/m^2$로 나타났으며, $d(SiO_2)=1000\AA$에서 최대광흡수 특성을 보였다. 광반사 방지막의 처리에 따른 유효 광흡수전력의 차이를 알아보기 위해 $SiO_2$막의 두께를 $500\AA$과 $1000\AA$으로 형성한 2종류의 에피텍셜 베이스 Si 태양전지$[EBS(500\AA),\;EBS(1000\AA)]$를 제작하고 효율특성을 분석한 결과, AM1 $100\;mW/cm^2$ 입사광 아래 $EBS(1000\AA)$ 전지는 $EBS(500\AA)$전지에 비해 효율이 약 $15\%$ 높게 나타났다.
