Cyclotron-accelerated ion beams are used for various researches, such as nuclear physics, nuclear chemistry, biotechnology, and material sciences including radio-isotope production. Recently considerable applications are asked to the cyclotron development undertaken to meet user requirements of various ions'energies, intensities, and their pulsed beams. For instance, a cocktail beam acceleration technique rapidly changing the ion species and energies was developed to irradiating integrated circuit chips. Also a chopping system in a cyclotron injection line is considered for producing a pulsed ion beam with a relatively long period compared with that generated by the resonance frequency. For the research in neutron time-of-flight measurement, a single-pulsed beam with a repetition interval of the order of mili-seconds or longer is necessary to have a good resolution and to remove background events. In this paper a feasibility of pulsed beam with an external ion source is simulated by adopting a combination system of a chopper accompanying with a bunching stage in the injection line and an additional chopper after the exit of the cyclotron in order to produce beam pulses with a range of $1{\mu}s{\sim}1ms$ periods from a resonance RF cycle. The pulseperiod will be adjusted by chopping the number of beam bunches from the injected pulses in the injection line. However, the longer pulses will have reduced number of beam pulses and sacrificed beam currents. Because the beam users need an intense single pulsed beam, a careful tuning of the acceleration phase and a high-intense external ion source are necessary to achieve an intense single-pulsed beam from the cyclotron. It is essential to strictly match the acceleration phase of injected beams in the central region of the cyclotron to improve its efficiency. An effect of space charge at each pulse from the ion source will be also considered.

The fracture of acrylic resin dentures remains an unsolved problem. Therefore, many investigations have been performed and various approaches to strengthening acrylic resin, for example, the reinforcement of heat-cured PMMA resin using glass fibers, have been suggested over the years. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of short glass fibers treated with silane coupling agent on the transverse strength of heat-polymerized PMMA denture base resin. To avoid fiber bunching and achieve even fiber distribution, glass fiber bundles were mixed with PMMA powder in conventional mixer whose blade was modified to be blunt. Composite of glass fiber($11{\mu}m$ diameter, 3mm & 6mm length, silane treated) and PMMA resin was made. Transverse strength and Young's modulus were estimated. Glass fibers were incorporated with 1%, 3%, 6% and 9% by weight. Plasticity and workability of dough was evaluated. Fracture surface of specimens was investigated by SEM. The results of this study were as follows 1. 6% and 9% incorporation of 3mm glass fibers in the PMMA resin enhanced the transverse strength of the test specimens(p<0.05). 2. 6% incorporation of 6mm glass fibers in the PMMA resin increased transverse strength, but 9% incorporation of it decreased transverse strength(p<0.05). 3. When more than 3% of 3mm glass fibers and more than 6% of 6mm glass fibers were incorporated, Young's modulus increased significantly(p<0.05). 4. Workability decreased gradually as the percentage of the fibers increased. 5. Workability decreased gradually as the length of the fibers increased. 6. In SEM and LM, there was no bunching of fibers and no shortening of fibers.

초미세 전자 소자에 대한 개발에 대한 요구는 최근 들어 원자 단위의 구조물 제작에 대한 연구로까지 나아 가게 하고 있다. 좋은 물리적 성장을 가지는 양자도선(quantum wire), quantum dot와 같은 nano 단위 구조물 제작에 대한 요구는 그 가능성의 하나로 , 기울어진 vicinal) 표면위에서의 박막 성장에 대한 연구로 이어지고 있다. 기울어진 표면은 한 원자층으로 된 많은 계단들을 가지고 있는 표면이고, 이러한 계단들의 존재는 박막 성장 시 흡착 원자가 계단 끝에 부착될 확률을 증가 시켜, stepflow 성장과 같은 준 층별 성장을 만들 가능성을 높여주며, sub-ML증착에 대해서 원자가 계단면을 따라 길게 늘어선 양자도선과 같은 성장이 가능한 표면이라는 점에서 관심을 갖게 한다. 그러나 최근의 연구들에 의하면 기울어진 표면 위에서의 성장도 Schwoebel 장벽과 같은 분산 장벽의 존재로 계단과 수직인 축 방향으로 거친 모양의 island가 형성되는 Bails-Zangwill 불안정성이 나타나는 것으로 보고되고 있고, 이것은 준 층별 성장이나 양자 도선과 같은 성장을 방해하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 불안정성을 해결할 가능성으로 최근 들어 한 계단의 높이가 큰 step bunching 이 생겨난 표면위에서의 성장이 제기 되고 있으나, 아직 확인되지 않았다. 본 연구는 이러한 기울어진 표면 위에서 박막을 성장 할 때 층흐름(step flow) 성장이 가능한 역학적 동역학적 조건을 구하고자 하며, 방법으로는 KMC 시뮬레이션을 이용한다. 단원자로 구성된 계단이 있는 기울어진 표면 위에서의 homoepitaxy의 경우, 성장 양식은 계단과 계단 사이의 테라스 간격에 크게 의존한다. 테라스 간격이 좁을수록 성장은 보다 층흐름 성장에 근접한다. 그러나 다층으로 성장시킨 시뮬레이션의 결과는 일반적인 장벽 조건 아래에서는 계단의 방향과 수직인 방향으로 평평한 면에서와 동일한 크기를 가지는 island가 성장하는 것을 볼 수 있고, 이 것은 Bails-Zangwill 불안정성이다. 그러나 계단 사이의 테라스 간격이 매우 좁은 경우 5-6ML 성장 이하에서는 층흐름 성장과 동일한 성장이 이루어지나 계단을 따라서 미소한 크기의 거칠기가 나타난다. 동일한 기울어진 경사면에 대해서는 분산속도가 좋을수록 보다 계단 면을 따라 보다 큰 크기의 island가 나타난다. 분산 장벽과 같이 동역학적인 요소만으로는 완벽한 층흐름 성장은 높은 온도, 극히 낮은 분산 장벽이라는 조건 이외에는 얻기 어렵다. 그리고 층흐름 성장의 가능성으로 제시된 step bunching 일 일어난 다층 높이의 계단을 가진 면도 다층의 수만큼 계단수를 늘려주는 것과 동일한 결과가 나타나며, 이 경우도 층흐름 성장에는 근접하지만 완전한 형태의 성장은 얻기는 역시 어렵다. 따라서 원자단위의 도선이나 층흐름 성장은 계단과 계단 사이의 인력 또는 척력과 같은 역학적인 요소를 고려할 때 만이 가능할 것으로 보인다.

Roundabouts face a congestion problem when there are unbalanced traffic conditions, especially during peak times. The congestion at roundabouts results in long delay times and low level of service. Some research has addressed congestion problems of the metering roundabout, however, few studies have focused on the congestion issues of the double signals metering roundabout. This research bridges this gap through analyzing the congestion issues of the Old Belair double signals roundabout in Adelaide. The research proposes a new analysis method based on a four-nodes intersection in order for double signals roundabout analysis to be carried out as follows: firstly, at the modeling stage, a connection of four individual intersections, adjustment of lane geometry, input of directional traffic volumes, priority and phase time set up are proposed. Secondly, for calibration, PFF, critical gap, follow-up headway and extra bunching values have been applied. The results from the analysis show that the new method is able to analyze the delay time, level of service, degree of saturation and allow for further analysis.

Carriers moving in a semiconductor can impart gain or loss to an acousic wave traveling through Piezo-electric materials. In this paper, surface a coustic wave amplifiers, which employ the interaction between carriers drifting in a semiconduct or film and electic fields accompanying a Rayleigh wave propagating on a Piezoelectric substrate, are described. The effect of various electromagnetic boundary condition on th propagation of surface waves in Piezoelectrics is considered. An expression for the dependence of surface wave velocity on electic boundary conditions is derived. Calculations show that, for properly prepared material, significant amplification is expected up to the microwave frequencies. At high frequencies, gain is reduced because electro diffusion smooths out the electron bucning necessary for amplification.

The linear accelerator of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory(PAL) will drive a top-up mode operation in PLS-II(Pohang Light Source-II). Due to this kind of the operation mode, the electron gun is expected to have shorter life time of the cathode. Further in the PLS-II, two gate valves will be installed in front of the electron gun. The distance between the pre-bunching section and the electron gun will increase by 400 mm compared to the existing system due to the insertion of these gate valves. As a result the incident electron beam. One of the goals to improve the beam pulse width is by incorporating suitable biased voltage. In this paper, we will present test results of beam pulse width as a function of different biased voltage and focusing solenoid coil.

Stranski-Krastanow 자발형성 방법에 의한 양자점의 성장은 다른 공정에 비해 결함이 적은 반면에 크기와 위치를 조절하기 어렵다. 최근 20-off GaAs 기판을 이용한 양자점의 성장은 다른 공정과는 달리 성장조건만으로 선택적인 성장을 얻을 수 있으며 양자점의 크기가 terrace width를 벗어나지 않으므로 uniformity를 향상시킬 수 있다. 20-off GaAs 기판의 trrrace 넓이는 약 99 이지만 성장조건하에 Ga의 diffusion에 의한 step bunching 효과에 의하여 그 넓이는 변화하며 특히, 성장 두께에 따라 넓이는 증가한다. 이러한 현상을 바탕으로 20-off 기판위에 GaAs buffer 층을 1000 , 22 을 갖게 되었다. 이로써 20-off 기판을 이용할 경우,GaAs buffer 층의 두께만으로 양자점의 크기를 조절할 수 있다.

A feasible way to utilize small-scale livestock farm wastewater was explored. In place of common support materials rice straw was employed as a support medium of trickling filter for pig farm wastewater treatment. The straw medium which was humified for 20 days after wastewater treatment and mixed with soil significantly enhanced in general the development of bunching lettuce grown under greenhouse conditions. Improvement of soil chemical properties in terms of fertility was also achieved by the addition of humified straw medium after wastewater treatment. It was found that rice straw served as a satisfactory support medium of trickling filters with the wastewater treatment concerning removals of biological oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, and suspended solids.

Striations are growth-induced inhomogeneities which hamper the applications of solid-solution crystals and of doped crystals in numerous technologies. Thus the optimized performance of solid solutions often can not be exploited. The inhomogeneity problem can be solved in specific cases by achieving a distribution coefficient one in growth from melts and from solutions. Macrostep-induced striations can be suppressed by controlling the growth mode, by achieving growth on facets thereby preventing step bunching. Thermal striations are commonly assumed to be caused by convective instabilities so that reduced convection by microgravity or by damping magnetic fields was and is widely attempted to reduce such inhomogeneities. Here it will be shown that temperature fluctuations at the growth interface cause striations, and that hydrodynamic fluctuations in a quasi-isothermal growth system do not cause striations. The theoretically derived conditions were experimentally established and allowed the growth of striation-free crystals of $KTa_{1-x}Nb_xO_3$"KTN" solid solutions. Hydrodynamic variations from the accelerated crucible rotation technique ACRT did not cause striations as long as the temperature was controlled within $0.03^{\circ}$ at $1200^{\circ}C$ growth temperature. Alternative approaches to solve or reduce the segregation and striation problems in growth from melts and from solutions are discussed as well.

The Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data are considered to contain the greatest amount of information among various microwave techniques developed for measuring ocean variables from aircraft or satellites. They have the potential of measuring wavelength, wave direction and wave height of the ocean waves. But, it is difficult to retrieve significant ocean wave heights and surface current from conventional SAR data, since the imaging mechanism of ocean waves by a SAR is determined by the three basic modulation processes arise through the tilt modulation, hydrodynamic modulation and velocity bunching which are poorly known functions. Along-Track Interferometric (ATI) SAR systems can directly detect the Doppler shift associated with each pixel of a SAR image and have been used to estimate wave fields and surface currents. However, the Doppler shift is not simply proportional to the component of the mean surface current. It includes also contributions associated with the phase velocity of the Brags waves and orbital motions of all ocean waves that are longer than Brags waves. In this paper, we have developed a new method for extracting the surface current vector using multiple-frequency (L- & C-band) ATI SAR data, and have generated surface wave height information.
