We have designed the calculation model(AMC method) of electron output for the cut-out fieldsand studied the influence of shielding block size. The output of electron was measured in the water phantom at dmax, for 20 $\times$ 20cm$^2$ cone size electron beams from CL/1800 linear accelerator(Varian, USA), Which generates the energy of 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18MeV electron beams. The shielding blocks were rectangular or squre shaped, low melting point alloy. We can predict the output from the arbitrarily rectangular shaped block within 1% error. by using the AMC method, which considers the contribution of the collimator(block) scatter and the phantom scatter.

The research on electromagnetic shielding has been advanced for military applications as well as for commercial products. Utilizing the reflective properties and absorptive properties of shielding material, the replied signal measured at the rear surface or at the signal source can be minimized. The shielding effect was obtained from materials having special absorptive properties or from structural characteristics such as stacking sequence. Recently researchers studied the electromagnetic properties of nano size particles. In this research {glass fiber}/{epoxy}/{nano particle} composites(GFR-Nano composites), was fabricated using various nano particles, and their properties in electromagnetic shielding were compared. For the visual observation of the nano composite materials, SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) and TEM(Transmission Electron Microscope) were used. For the measurement of electromagnetic shielding, HP8719ES S-parameter Vector Network Analyser System was used on the frequency range of 8 GHz～12GHz. Among the nano particles, carbon black and Multi-Walled Carbon Nano-Tube (MWCNT) revealed outstanding electromagnetic shielding. Although silver nano particles (flake and powder) were expected to have effective electromagnetic shielding due to their excellent electric conductivities, test showed little shielding effect.

In order to improve and supplement the shielding method for electron beam treatment, we designed a patient-specific shielding method using a 3D printer, and evaluated the usefulness by comparing and analyzing the distribution of electron beam doses to adjacent organs. In order to treat 5 cm sized superficial tumors around the lens, a CT Simulator was used to scan the Alderson Rando phantom and the DICOM file was converted into an STL file. The converted STL file was used to design a patient-specific shield and mold that matched the body surface contour of the treatment site. The thickness of the shield was 1 cm and 1.5 cm, and the mold was printed using a 3D printer, and the patient customized shielding block (PCSB) was fabricated with a cerrobend alloy with a thickness of 1 cm and 1.5 cm. The dosimetry was performed by attaching an EBT3 film on the surface of the Alderson Rando phantom eyelid and measuring the dose of 6, 9, and 12 MeV electron beams on the film using four shielding methods. Shielding rates were 83.89%, 87.14%, 87.39% at 6, 9, and 12 MeV without shielding, 1 cm (92.04%, 87.48%, 86.49%), 1.5 cm (91.13%, 91.88% with PSCB), 92.66%) The shielding rate was measured as 1 cm (90.7%, 92.23%, 88.08%) and 1.5 cm (88.31%, 90.66%, 91.81%) when the shielding block and the patient-specific shield were used together. PCSB fabrication improves shielding efficiency over conventional shielding methods. Therefore, PSCB may be useful for clinical application.

The MCNP5 neutron, electron, photon Monte Carlo transport program was installed on the KISTI's SUN Tachyon computer using the parallel programming. Electron beam accelerators were modeled and shielding calculations were performed in order to investigate the reduction of computation time in the supercomputer environment. It was observed that a speedup of 40 to 80 of computation time can be obtained using 64 CPUs compared to an IBM PC.

본 연구의 목적은 전자빔 치료에서 산란선을 차폐하는 데 사용되는 납의 단점을 극복하기 위한 대체 재료로 텅스텐 나노입자를 선택하여 고선량에서 발생하는 산란선에 차폐 효과가 있는지 여부를 평가하는 것이다. 선량계의 위치와 조사야의 크기를 일정하게 설정하기 위해 판을 자체 제작하였다. 유리 선량계는 10 × 10 cm² 크기의 조사야의 중앙에서 십자로 1, 2, 4 cm 떨어진 지점에 위치하여 12곳의 지점에 위치시켰다. 10 × 10 cm² 크기의 텅스텐 나노입자 차폐체를 0.4, 0.75, 1 mm의 소재로 두께 0.75 mm에서 최대 두께 4.0 mm의 총 12가지 유형의 차폐가 적용되었다. 선형가속기를 사용해서 6 MeV에서 4회, 12 MeV에서 4회 측정하였고 선량의 세기는 100 MU로 조사하였다. 실험 결과 조사야로부터 1 cm 거리에서 4 mm 차폐판이 가장 높은 차폐 효과를 보였다. 조사야로부터 2 cm 거리에 적용된 1 mm 차폐판이 차폐 효과가 가장 낮았다. 텅스텐 차폐판의 두께가 두꺼워짐에 따라 전자선 차폐 효과는 급격히 증가하였다. 결론적으로 텅스텐 나노입자는 전자빔 치료에서 납의 대체 재료로 사용이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Electromagnetic shielding sheet using the carbon and wood fiber mixture was manufactured in an effort to develop an electromagnetic shielding packaging material. Carbon fibers were cut into 5, 10, and 15 mm using the automatic cutting device and blown and dispersed using compression air passed through the fine nozzle. Then carbon fibers were slurried with water (0.1% consistency), and softwood kraft pulp along with cone starch were added. The wet mats were manufactured by dewatering in modified hand-sheet machine. The wet mats were pressed upto $4kgf/cm^2$ in the carbon and wood fiber mixture mat press. The wet mats were dried in the automatic controlled plate dryer. Investigation on the formation and surface structure of the newly developed carbon and wood fiber mixture electromagnetic shielding sheet were carried out using the scanning electron microscopy and the image analyzer. Finally electromagnetic shielding characteristics of the newly developed carbon and wood mixture sheet were measured using net-work analyser. The result was promising in the light of the fact that this method could open a new way to substitute the expensive imported electromagnetic shielding sheet.

Recently large size color TV and computer monitor are very popular and a lot techniques are being developed to get a high quality picture on the screen through reducing the convergence error among the red, green and blue beams and achieving a high focusing. One of the techniques is considering the mutual effects of the components of the Brown tube. The magnetic deflection yoke, especially, stands immediately next to the electron gun and generates the leakage magnetic fields at the electron gun which affects the trajectories of the electron beams inside the gun. Hence a shield cup made of thin conducting plate is located at the end of electron gun in order to shield the leakage flux from the deflection yoke. Since the red, green and blue beams are placed unsymmetrically the shielding effects of the shield cup on the beams are not same and eddy current controller, made of thin conducting plate, is auxiliary placed inside the shield cup. In this paper a transient magnetic field analysis algorithm is developed using boundary element method, and applied to the analysis of the shielding effects of the eddy current controller of shield cup in an electron gun.

고 에너지 전자선 치료 시 차폐체로 사용되는 납을 대체할 수 있는 3D 프린터 소재를 찾기 위해 MCNP6 프로그램을 사용하였다. 고 에너지 전자선을 방출하는 선형가속기의 PDD(Percent Depth Dose), Flatness, Symmetry를 측정하고, MCNP6로 선형가속기를 모의 모사 후 비교하여 실측과 모의 모사와의 선원항이 일치함을 확인하였다. 납 차폐체를 모의 모사하여, 흡수선량의 95 % 이상을 차폐할 수 있는 납 차폐체의 적정 두께를 선정하였다. 3 mm 두께의 납 차폐체에 대한 흡수선량 데이터를 기준으로 하여 ABS + W(10%), ABS + Bi(10%), PLA + Fe(10%) 소재들의 1, 5, 10, 15 mm 두께 별로 모의 모사로 분석하여 차폐성능을 분석하였다. 3D 프린터로 각각의 시제품을 제작하여 모의 실험과 같은 조건으로 측정하여 분석한 결과 ABS+W(10%) 소재가 최소 10 mm 이상의 두께로 형성되었을 때, 3 mm 두께의 납을 대체할 수 있는 차폐성능을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 주사전자현미경(SEM)과 EDS 스펙트럼을 이용하여 ABS + W(10%) 소재의 원소조성 및 표면형상을 분석하였다. 이러한 결과를 통해, 상용화 된 납 차폐체를 ABS + W(10%) 소재로 대체하면 납과 같은 차폐효과를 낼 뿐만 아니라 3D 프린터를 이용하여 환자 맞춤형으로 제작할 수 있어 고 에너지 전자선 치료에 매우 유용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
