Going underwater is supposed to begin with the history of human beings. At first it was confined to relatively shallow level, less than several meters by holding breath. Recently, deep level diving has been necessary for such purpose as construction, maritime salvage, military operations, research and sports by using SCUBA(self-contained underwater breathing apparatus) equipment. As one goes down into water, the pressure on the diver is increased due to water pressure with depth, usually 1 atm for each 10 m water level. In deep water, mixed gas or nitrox(EAN, enriched air nitrox) could be applied for the divers lest they should get disease due to high pressure. Of these, the former is usually composed of oxygen and inert gas like helium or hydrogen, the latter contains higher oxygen content than that in normal air in which the oxygen concentration is designated by the character "EAN" followed by vol. % of oxygen, for example, "EAN 40" contains 40% of oxygen. In this case, a victim was found at the 39 m below the sea surface breathing air and nitrox in cylinder wrongly marked as EAN 36, which was analyzed to contain 63% of oxygen by GC/TCD. The cause of death could not be exactly related with the oxygen content in the nitrox cylinder, because the accurate depth for the victim to dive was not known, even though the victim was just found at the depth of 39 m. However, the wrongly marked nitrox could be believed to be the main cause of the death at the depth unless there happened any other accident except that during diving.

향후 도래할 수소경제에서 가장 유망한 기술 중에 하나인 고체수소저장 시스템들의 전체성능은 고체수소화물 내부의 열 및 물질전달 속도에 크게 영향을 받으며, 최적화된 시스템 설계를 위해서 이들에 대한 연구들이 선행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Pt-CNTs 수소저장물질을 이용한 수소저장시스템에 대한 모델링 및 2차원 비정상상태 전산해석을 수행하였다. 기존 상용화된 CFD 소프트웨어를 이용하여 충전동안 발생하는 열 및 물질전달에 대한 현상들을 연구하였으며, 최적화된 수소저장시스템 설계는 고압에서 대류에 의한 냉각효과를 최대화하여 시스템 내부의 온도 상승과 충전시간 지연을 개선할 수 있음을 밝혀냈다. 아직까지 CNT 기반의 수소저장시스템에 대한 연구들이 보고되고 있지 않은 상황에서, 본 연구는 향후 CNT 기반의 고체수소저장시스템 최적 설계에 대한 방안들을 제시한다.

반응결합 탄화규소(RBSC) 반응관을 보호하기 위하여, 반응결합 탄화규소 기판 위에 탄화규소를 1~10 범위의 입력기체비(${\alpha}=P_{H2}/P_{MTS}=Q_{H2}/Q_{MTS}$)와 1050~1300$^{\circ}C$범위의 증착온도에서 methyltrichlorosilane(MTS)로부터 수소분위기에서 저압화학기상법으로 증착하였다. 1250$^{\circ}C$의 증착온도에서 입력기체비가 감소함에 따라 증착속도는 증가하다가 감소하였다 입력기체비가 높을 때에는 (111) 우선배향성을 나타내고 과립형의 미세구조를 보이며, 입력기체비가 작을 경우에는 (220) 우선배향성을 가지는 마면주상의 미세구조가 관찰되었다. 증착온도가 증가함에 따라 입력기체비와 비슷하게 미세구조의 변화하는결과를 얻었으며, 이러한 결과는 증착기구의 변화와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 일정한 증착온도에서 입력기체비의 조정를 통하여 얻었으며, 이러한 결과는 증착기구의 변화와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 일정한 증착온도에서 입력기체비의 조절을 통하여 과립형과 미면주상의 미세구조를 함께 가지는 복층구조를 연속공정을 통하여 성공적으로 제조하였다.

The synthetic methods for high yield of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) and singlewalled carbon nanotube (SWNT) with high purity by arc discharge have been investigated. MWNTs were synthesized under different pressures of helium and the gas mixture of argon and hydrogen. Relatively high pressure of 300-400 torr was required for high yield MWNTs synthesis at low bias voltage of about 20 V and 55 A, whereas low pressure of about 100 torr was required for SWNTs. The introduction of hydrogen gases during the synthesis of MWNTs improved the yield and purity of the samples. The SWNTs were synthesized by the assistance of a small amount of mixture of transition metals, which played as a catalyst during the formation process. The purity and yield of SWNTs were higher at a lower pressure and enhanced by mixing more components of the transition metals.

For optimal performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) requires hydration, and the membrane's conductivity depends on water content. A humidifier is required to ensure that the reactant gas, usually hydrogen and air, is hydrated before entering the fuel cell. Dry membrane operation or improper hydration causes performance degradation. Typically, the humidification of a fuel cell is carried out by means of an internal or external humidifier. A membrane humidifier is applied to the external humidification of transportation or residential power generation fuel cell due to its convenience and high performance. In this study, The experiments were constructed with a plate-type membrane humidifier in terms of geometric parameters and operating parameters. The results show that the temperature and pressure, the channel length, the membrane thickness and gas flow rate are critical parameters affecting the performance of the humidifier.

The high stability of a-Si:H TFTs device is studied with different deposited conditions of $SiN_x$ films by PECVD. The process parameters of $N_2$, $NH_3$ gas flow rate, RF power, and pressure s of hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride are taken into account and analyzed by Taguchi experimental design method. The $NH_3$ gas flow rate and RF power are two major factors on the average threshold voltage and the a-SiNx:H film's structure. The hydrogen contents in $SiN_x$ films were measured by FTIR using the related Si-H/N-H bonds ratio in $a-SiN_x:H$ films. After the 330,000 sec gate bias stress is applied, the threshold voltages ($V_th$) shift less than 10%. This result indicates that the highly stable a-Si:H TFTs device can be fabricated with optimum gate $SiN_x$ insulator.

Micro-/macroporous carbons (MMCs) were prepared using a hollow mesoporous silica capsule (HMSC) as a sacrificial hard template. The carbonization process after the infiltration of furfuryl alcohol into the template-free HMSC material afforded MMC materials in high yield. The hard template HMSC could be removed by HF etching without deteriorating the structure of MMC. The MMC materials were fully characterized by SEM, TEM, PXRD, XPS, and Raman spectroscopy. The replication processes were so successful that MMCs exhibited a hollow capsular structure with multimodal microporosity. Detailed textural properties of MMC materials were investigated by volumetric $N_2$ adsorption-desorption analysis at 77 K. To explore the gas sorption abilities of MMCs for other gases, $H_2$ and $CO_2$ sorption analyses were also performed at various temperatures. The multimodal MMC materials were found to be good sorbents for both $H_2$ and $CO_2$ at low pressure.

본 총설은 탄소중립 및 에너지순환을 실현하기 위한 재생에너지로부터 그린수소 생산 전략 중 하나인 바이오수소 생산 및 정제법에 관해 소개하고자 한다. 바이오수소는 생물질과 미생물과 같은 재생에너지원을 이용하며, 상온 및 상압 등의 마일드한 실험조건에서 작동하여 에너지소비 및 공정비용이 적게 드는 친환경 공정으로 알려져 있다. 하지만, 이러한 바이오수소를 상업적으로 이용하기 위해서는 해결해야 할 중요한 도전적인 과제가 존재한다. 특히, 바이오수소는 생물반응기내의 복합한 화학반응으로 합성되어, 낮은 수소생산 속도 및 반응기내 다양한 혼합물이 존재하여, 바이오수소 고순도화를 위해서 연속공정 형태의 분리 및 정제 기술이 반드시 필요하다. 이를 위해, 저온 증류법, 압력 흡착법, 분리막법 등을 비롯한 다양한 분리 및 정제 기술이 고순도 바이오수소를 얻기 위해 제안되었다. 본 총설에서는 바이오수소 생산 및 정제 연계화를 위한 비다공성 고분자 분리막의 가능성에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

The large-area high-power radio-frequency (RF) driven ion sources based on the negative hydrogen (deuterium) ion beam extraction are the major components of neutral beam injection (NBI) systems in future large-scale fusion devices such as an ITER and DEMO. Positive hydrogen (deuterium) RF ion sources were the major components of the second NBI system on ASDEX-U tokamak. A test large-area high-power RF ion source (LAHP-RaFIS) has been developed for steady-state operation at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) to extract the positive ions, which can be used for the NBI heating and current drive systems in the present fusion devices, and to extract the negative ions for negative ion-based plasma heating and for future fusion devices such as a Fusion Neutron Source and Korea-DEMO. The test RF ion source consists of a driver region, including a helical antenna and a discharge chamber, and an expansion region. RF power can be transferred at up to 10 kW with a fixed frequency of 2 MHz through an optimized RF matching system. An actively water-cooled Faraday shield is located inside the driver region of the ion source for the stable and steady-state operations of RF discharge. The characteristics and uniformities of the plasma parameter in the RF ion source were measured at the lowest area of the expansion bucket using two RF-compensated electrostatic probes along the direction of the short- and long-dimensions of the expansion region. The plasma parameters in the expansion region were characterized by the variation of loaded RF power (voltage) and filling gas pressure.
