As a technique for removing cancerous tumors from normal tissue, radio-frequency electromagnetic waves were employed to heating target cells up to the critical temperature, which kills the cancerous cells. However, its use in treating tumors in soft organs is limited by inconvenient factors, which are use of high-currents and long time operation. In this work, the feasibility of the localized heating by inserting four conducting electrodes with tiny direct current is investigated. The heat source is resulting from the electric field as known as resistive heating. We have investigated the temperature distribution as a function of applying DC voltages ranging from 10 V to 30 V with 10 V step. From the simulation results, the mushroom-like lesion shape by applying 20 V is generated by four electrodes within a few minutes, that is proper to the clinical application.

Today, computer network infrastructure is commonplace and internet user increase. Transmission bandwidth for network traffic is increasing. The data amount of 2014 and 2015 year measured 47 and 62 exabyte, it shows a tremendous increase. Video traffic occupy 60 percent among internet traffic. Enormous growth of Internet traffic than the network infrastructure is not enough to support them, so mobile network occur side-effects such as fall of voice communication. In this paper, we proposed the video compression method using SURF feature and block shaping in order to avoid potential damage. Our proposed method can provide enough performance than previous method.

VLSI 소자에서 design rule(D/R)이 작아져 각 단위 Pattern의 size가 작아짐에 따라 aspect ratio가 커지게 되었다. 산화막 contact etch를 하는데 있어 산화막 측벽을 보호하는데, 이러한 보호막은 주로 fluoro-carbon 계열의 polymer precursor들이 사용된다. Aspect ratio(A/R)가 5 이하일 때에는 측벽의 보호막에 의한 바닥 변형이 문제가 되지 않으나, 10 이상의 A/R를 가진 contact에서는 크기가 줄고, 모양이 불균형하게 변하는 바닥 변형을 쉴게 관찰할 수 있다. 이러한 바닥 변형이 커지면 contact 저항이 높아지는 것은 물론이고, 심하게는 하부 pattern과 overlap 불량을 유발할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 바닥변형을 일으키는 원인을 분석하고 fluoro-carbon 계열의 polymer precursor의 종류$(C_4_F6\;vs.\;C_3F_8)$에 따른 polymer증착 상태 확인 및 pattern비대칭에 따른 바닥 변형의 고찰과 plasma etching 시 H/W 변형을 통해 바닥 변형이 거의 없는 조건을 찾아낼 수 있었다.

Mast cells have been studied extensively in various animals including rats and mice, whereas little is known the morphological data about pheasant mast cells. Here, morphological features of Korean pheasant mast cells are described in this study using light and electron microscopes. For light microscopy, mast cells had many metachromatic granules stained with toluidine blue in the cytoplasm. The fixation with $10\%$ neutral buffered formalin blocked staining of most mast cells but a modified Karnovsky solution proved to be a good fixative. In Korean pheasants, toluidine blue stained more mast cells than did alcian blue. For electron microscopy, the mast cells of the Korean pheasant were round, oval, spindle-like and irregular form and occasionally had a few short cytoplasmic processes. These cells had membrane-bounded granules and poorly developed organells. Some granules in the cytoplasm of the mast cells had bilayer membrane. Most granules were round shape and the membrane of several granules was concave or convex. The granules were composed of three parts, homogenous, particulate and reticular pattern.

We have investigated the characteristics of hydrogen (H) plasma treated quantum dot infrared photodetectors (QDIPs). The structure used in this study consists of 3 stacked, self assembled $In_{0.5}Ga_{0.5}As/GaAs$ QD layer separated by GaAs barrier layers that were grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Optical characteristics of QDIPs, such as photoluminescence (PL) spectra and photocurrent spectra, have been studied and compared with each other for the as grown and H plasma treated QDIPs. H plasma treatment, resulted in the splitting of PL peak, which can be attributed to the redistribution of the size of QDs. The activation energies estimated from the temperature dependence of integrated PL intensity for as grown and H plasma treated QDIPs are found to be in good agreement with those determined from corresponding peaks of photocurrent spectra. It is also noted that photocurrent is detected up to 130 K for the H plasma treated QDIP, suggesting the future possibility for the development of infrared photodetectors with high temperature operation.

The various methods of preparation for the porous hydroxyapatite ceramics using naphthalene, $H_20_2$ and chlorinated paraffine with $H_20_2$ were investigated. And then the prepared orous hydroxyapatite ceramics were characterized by XRD, SEM, FT-IR and the apparent porosity. The pore size of porous hydroxyapatite ceramics was controlled by the content and size of naphthalene granular. It was found that the porosity of it was increased with the amount of naphthalene, but the bending strength was decreased. The application of hydrogen peroxide produced porous materials like a sponge tissue, but the porosity and the shape of sintered body were hardly controlled. In the case of using chlorinated paraffine with the simultaneous addition of hydrogen peroxide, the sponge tissue was obtained and also could be controlled from 50 up to about 65% porosity of it.

Neutron inelastic scattering studies on polycrystalline hydrates, NaBr-2$H_2O$ and BaCl$_2$-2$H_2O$ have been performed to observe librational modes. Assuming all observed peaks are from the $H_2O$ librational origin, the weighted frequency distribution functions are obtained by eliminating the contributions from the higher order processes. All of theoretical frequencies obtained using FG matrix method are dus to highly mixed modes, and therefore the modes identified as significant $H_2O$ librationat modes from their large potential energy distributions are assigned to the observed peaks. The H-bond interactions are estimated using a modified Lippincott Schroeder potential function, and the applicability of the potential function to the H-bond with highly bent or bifurcated configuration is examined on the basis of the shape of $H_2O$ librational potential energies. Some discussions are given on the usefulness of introducing O-H…Y bending terms in addition to the H…Y stretching in similar frequency calculation in order to obtain more information on the nature of H-bond. Also the purity and symmetry properties of the $H_2O$ librational modes are discussed using group theoretical analyses.

A hydrogel, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-N, N-dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide), sensitive to both pH and temperature, was synthesized and characterized at $^13∼23{\circ}C$ and pH of 10.3∼12.3. The gel was more transparent and mechanically stronger at lower preparation temperature and pH. Large pores observed in scanning electron microscope seem to be responsible for the lower biomolecular separation efficiency. The lower critical solution temperature (LCST) decreased at a higher polymerization temperature. At $25^{\circ}C$, which is lower than the LCST, the gel was swollen regardless of the solution pH. At $40^{\circ}C$, however, the gel was swollen at neutral and acidic pHs even though the temperature was higher than the LCST. The gel collapse pH, defined as the point at which the gel made its largest volume decrease per unit pH increment, increased as the gel preparation temperature increased.

To desalinate the aqueous solutions with high salt concentration using the capacitive deionization technology, two resin/membrane capacitive deionization(RMCDI) cells were fabricated by filling mixed ion exchange resins in two different flow channels (spacer and spiral type). The salt removal efficiency of the spacer- and spiral-RMCDI was 77.21 and 99.94%, respectively. Many ions were significantly removed in a spiral RMCDI cell because the feed solution could be more evenly contacted with the ion exchange resins filled on the spiral type flow channel. As the result of the changes of pH and accumulative charges, it was observed that Faradaic reaction was diminished for a spiral RMCDI cell filled by the mixture of cation and anion exchange resins. Therefore, the desalination of the aqueous solutions with high salt concentration by the capacitive deionization technology was proven. In addition, further studies on the optimization of the mixing ratio with ion exchange resins and the introduction of the regeneration process generally occurred in the continuous electrodeionization (CEDI) technology are required to improve the RMCDI technology.
