A simple microwave backscattering model for vegetation canopies on earth surfaces is developed in this study. A natural earth surface is modeled as a two-layer structure comprising a vegetation layer and a ground layer. This scattering model includes various scattering mechanisms up to the first-order multiple scattering( double-bounce scattering). Radar backscatter from ground surface has been modeled by the polarimetric semi-empirical model (PSEM), while the backscatter from the vegetation layer modeled by the vector radiative transfer model. The vegetation layer is modeled by random distribution of mixed scattering particles, such as leaves, branches and trunks. The number of input parameters has been minimized to simplify the scattering model. The computation results are compared with the experimental measurements, which were obtained by ground-based scatterometers and NASA/JPL air-borne synthetic aperture radar(SAR) system. It was found that the scattering model agrees well with the experimental data, even though the model used only ten input parameters.

The main objective of this study was to investigate effects of pigment mixed with different ratio on the double coated paper. Mineral pigments such as clay and ground calcium carbonate(GCC) as well as hollow sphere plastic pigment were used to evaluate the physical, optical properties and printabilities of double coated paper. The physical properties such as gloss and smoothness, and the printability(ink gloss) of double coated paper were measured to evaluate the effects of the bottom layer on improving the properties of top layer. The data indicated that the usage of hollow sphere plastic pigment for the bottom layer coating improved the surface properties of double coated paper, and that ink gloss was significantly influenced by the structure of bottom layer even when hollow sphere plastic pigment was used for the bottom layer coating.

A Thin-layer Wavier-Stokes equations are applied for the hypersonic flow over blunt bodies with applications to laminar as well as turbulent flows. The equations are expressed in the forms of flux-vector splitting and explicit algorithm. The upwind schemes of Steger-Warming and Van Leer are investigated to predict accurately the heating loads along the surface of the body. A mixed scheme has been presented for the differencing the convective terms and the mixed scheme is found to be less dissipative producing accurate solutions.

A charge trapping host structure was developed to improve the light-emitting efficiency of green phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes. N, N'-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene(mCP) and a spirobifluorene based triplet host(PHl) were co-deposited as hosts in the emitting layer and the device performance was examined according to the composition mCP and PH1. The results showed that the quantum efficiency could be improved by 30 % using a mixed host of mCP and PH1.

This study examined the effects of rice straw steaming time and mixing ratio between rice straw and wood particle on the properties of mixed particle board from Acacia mangium Willd wood and rice straw. Rice straw and Acacia mangium Willd wood were collected in Hanoi, Vietnam. The particle board was three-layer particle board with the structural ratio of 1:3:1. The thickness, density and board size of the particle board were 18 mm, $0.7g/cm^3$, and $800{\times}800{\times}18$ (mm, including trimming), respectively. A resin mixture between commercial Urea-formaldehyde (U-F) adhesive and methylene diphenyl isocyanate (MDI) adhesive was used with a dosage of 12% for the core layer and 14% for the surface layer. In this experimental design, the steaming time for rice straw was 15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 minutes at $100^{\circ}C$. The rice straw-wood mixing ratio was 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%. The results showed that both mixing ratio and steaming time affect the properties of the particleboard, but the mixing ratio has a stronger impact. A higher mixing ratio and a longer steaming time resulted in a better quality of particleboard. The optimal steaming time for rice straw was 46.12 minutes with the straw-wood mixing ratio of 29.85% with the following characteristics of the particle board: the modulus of rupture (MOR) of 14.64 MPa, internal bond strength (IB) of 0.382 MPa, thickness swelling (TS) of 8.83%, and board density of $0.7-0.7g/cm^3$.

무전해도금법을 이용하여 구리/PET 필름 복합재료를 제조하였으며 에칭방법과 촉매액의 조성 및 acceleration 방법을 달리하여 PET 필름과 무전해도금된 구리 피막간의 접착력을 향상시키고자 하였다. HCl 용액으로 에칭된 PET 필름은 NaOH에 의한 것보다 더욱 세밀하게 에칭되어져 구리와 PET 필름간의 접착력은 향상되었으나 전자파 차폐효과는 유사한 경향을 보였다. 촉매액의 조성변화에 따른 영향을 살펴본 결과 PdCl$_2$:SnCl$_2$의 몰비가 1:4에서 1:16으로 증가할수록 PET 필름 위에 적층된 Pd/Sn 콜로이드 입자들의 크기가 감소하며 고르게 분포되는 경향을 보였다. 따라서 이들의 몰비가 증가할수록 구리도금이 균일하고 조밀하게 이루어져 접착력 및 차폐효과가 증가하였다. 또한 NaOH보다 HCl로 acceleration한 경우 촉매 입자의 크기가 작고 더 균일하게 분포되어 우수한 접착력과 도금물성을 나타내었다.

We fabricated quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) using cadmium sulfide (CdS) and cadmium telluride (CdTe) quantum dots (QDs) as sensitizers. A spin coated $TiO_2$ nanoparticle (NP) film on tin-doped indium oxide glass and sputtered Au on fluorine-doped tin oxide glass were used as photo-anode and counter electrode, respectively. CdS QDs were deposited onto the mesoporous $TiO_2$ layer by a successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method. Pre-synthesized CdTe QDs were deposited onto a layer of CdS QDs using a direct adsorption technique. CdS/CdTe QDSSCs had high light harvesting ability compared with CdS or CdTe QDSSCs. QDSSCs incorporating single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), sprayed onto the substrate before deposition of the next layer or mixed with $TiO_2$ NPs, mostly exhibited enhanced photo cell efficiency compared with the pristine cell. In particular, a maximum rate increase of 24% was obtained with the solar cell containing a $TiO_2$ layer mixed with SWNTs.

A crack-free ceramic composite membrane with micropores has been synthesized by the pressurized sol-gel coating technique using the mixed Al2O3-SiO2 sols. The mixed sols were prepared by mixing nanoparticulate SiO2 and boehmite sols. These sols were more stable at lower pH, but very unstable when their copositions were in the range of 50~75mol% of SiO2 at the same pH. The mixed Al2O3-SiO2 membrane prepared from the mixed sol (0.2mol/$\ell$ of solid content and pH=2) containing 40mol% of SiO2 had the mean pore radius of 0.80nm and the specific surface area of 280$m^2$/g. The nitrogen permeability through the coated Al2O3-SiO2 layer was 42$\times$107mol/$m^2$.s.Pa. It was found that the thermal stability of aluminosilicate membranes, even through similar to that of SiO2 membranes, was much improved in comparison with ${\gamma}$-alumina membranes.

최근 우리나라 주변 해역의 해수면 온도가 상승하고 있다. 이러한 수온 상승은 어족자원의 변화를 일으켜 낚시와 같은 레저활동에 영향을 미치기도 하며, 특히 고수온은 적조 발생으로 이어져 양식업과 같은 해양산업에 극심한 피해를 유발하기도 한다. 한편 수온 변화는 잠수함을 탐지하는 군사작전과도 밀접하게 연관되어 있다. 이는 잠수함을 탐지하기 위한 음파가 수온층에 따라 회절, 굴절 및 반사되는 정도가 달라지기 때문이다. 이와 같이 해양과 관련된 다양한 분야에서 중요성을 가지는 해양 수온의 변화를 예측하기 위한 연구가 현재 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 기존 연구들은 대부분 해수면 온도만을 예측하는데 중점을 두고 있어 수심별 어족자원의 변화나 잠수함 탐지와 같은 군사분야 활용이 제한된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수심별 수온자료 및 해수면 온도와 상관관계를 가지는 기온, 기압, 일조량 등의 기상 데이터를 함께 활용하여 수심 38 m 혼합층의 수온을 예측하였다. 사용된 데이터는 이어도 해양과학기지에서 관측한 2016년부터 2020년까지의 기상 데이터와 수심별 수온 자료이며, 예측의 정확성과 효율성을 높이기 위해 딥러닝 기법 중 시계열 자료에 적합하다고 알려진 LSTM(Long Short-Term Memory)을 사용하였다. 실험 결과 1시간 예측을 기준으로 기온과 기압, 일조량 자료를 함께 활용한 모델의 RMSE(Root Mean Square Error)는 0.473으로 나타났다. 반면 해수면 수온만을 활용한 모델의 RMSE는 0.631로 나타나 기상데이터를 함께 활용한 모델이 상부 혼합층 수온 예측에서 보다 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

The effect of gas activation on the formation of SiC layer on Si substrate using methane as a carbon source was investigated. Tungsten filaments, heated above 200$0^{\circ}C$, were used to activate the methane-hydrogen mixed gas. The dissociation of methane gas by the heated filament was enough to form a SiC layer successfully, which was very difficult without any activation. The SiC layer formed on the Si substrate was crystalline and nearly epitaxial as measured by X-ray diffraction. The SiC layer formed on the Si substrate was crystalline and nearly epitaxial as measured by X-ray diffraction. The stoichiometry was also close to 1:1. However, the characteristic of the SiC layer was dependent on the heat-treatment condition. The general behavior of the layer growth with the variables was discussed.
