Damage of tungsten due to helium ions of a PF device was studied. The tungsten was analyzed by SEM and AFM after irradiation. SEM revealed fine bubbles of helium atoms with diameters of a few nanometers, which join and form larger bubbles and blisters on the surface of tungsten. This observation confirmed the results of molecular dynamics simulation. SEM analysis after etching of the irradiated surface indicated cavities with depth range of 35-85 nm. The average fluence of helium ion of the PF device was calculated about 5.2 × 10¹⁵ cm^-2 per shot, using Lee code. Energy spectrum of helium ions was estimated using a Thomson parabola spectrometer as a function of dN/dE ∝ E^-2.8 in the energy range of 10-200 keV. The characteristics of helium ion beam was imported to SRIM code. SRIM revealed that the maximum DPA and maximum helium concentration occur in the depth range of 20-50 nm. SRIM also showed that at depth of 30 nm, all of the tungsten atoms are displaced after 20 shots, while at depth of higher than 85 nm the destruction is insignificant. There is a close match between SRIM results and the measured depths of cavities in SEM images of tungsten after etching.

To understand the characteristics of organic aerosol(OA) at the background atmosphere of Korea, an observation of atmospheric PM10 was conducted at a Global Atmospheric Watch(GAW) station operated by the Korean Meteorological Administration at Anmyon Island during 2010. Various organic compounds were analyzed from 26 samples by using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometer. Water soluble organic carbon(WSOC) was also analyzed by using a total organic carbon(TOC) analyzer. Among 6 classes with 68 target compounds detected, the classes of n-alkanoic and alkenoic acids ($326.67{\pm}75.40ngm^{-3}$) and dicarboxylic acids ($323.74{\pm}361.89ngm^{-3}$) were found to be major compound classes in the atmosphere of Anmyon Island. Compared to the previous results reported for 2005 spring samples at Gosan site, the concentrations of organic compounds at Anmyon Island were 3-10 times higher than Gosan site due to the difference of location and sampling period. The concentrations of organic compounds were varied with the atmospheric conditions. Significant increase of the concentrations of dicarboxylic and carboxylic acids in the smog episode indicated that secondary oxidation of organic compounds was major factor to increase OA concentration during smog episode in the Anmyon Island. It was found that the compositions of the OA measured at Anmyon Island were dependent on the air parcel trajectories.

Saliva is obviously potential medium to protect the dental caries by not only physical clearing effect, but aggregating action of protein with bacteria. Nevertheless, we still do not understand how the dental caries occur and what brings the individual difference in caries prevalence. In the regards of dental caries prevalence, we hypothesized that the composition of salivary protein might be different from caries susceptible group to caries resistant group. The purposes of this experiment were focused on the molecular analysis of salivary proteins from the subjects who were involved in multiple caries. Electrophoretic analysis was done on the whole saliva collected from the children with and without multiple caries. We found 86.2% of subjects with multiple caries has approximately 120 KDa protein band while 30.4% in the healthy subjects. And the concentration of the total protein on the subjects with multiple caries is significantly higher than that of the healthy group. However, it turned out that the difference of the salivary composition does not affect the bacterial adhesion to hydroxyapatite bead. With regards of enzymes in saliva, the activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ and lactate dehydrogenase does not have any significant difference between both groups. However, the concentrations of $Na^+\;and\;Cl^-$ in saliva from multiple caries group is higher than that of the control group. Taken all together, it may be concluded that 120 KDa protein in saliva may be associated with the process of dental caries, also the high concentration of protein and $Na^+,\;Cl^-$ in saliva may be linked to dental caries development as a cofactors.

일반적으로 노즐 출구 부근에서 준연속체 상태로 방출된 추력기 플룸 유동은 노즐출구에서 멀어질수록 천이영역을 거쳐 자유분자 영역에 도달하기 때문에 희박영역에서의 추력기 플룸 영향을 연구하기 위해서는 광범위한 유동영역의 모델링이 가능한 직접모사법(DSMC)이 주로 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 희박영역에서 소형 단일추진제 추력기의 플룸 거동을 직접모사법을 이용해 수치적으로 예측하는 것이 목적이다. 정확한 결과를 효율적으로 유추하기 위해 예조건화 기법을 노즐 내부 연속체 영역의 해석에 도입하였으며, 이로부터 얻은 노즐 출구의 물성치 결과들을 직접모사법의 유입조건으로 적용하였다. 이렇게 두 기법을 결합하여 사용한 결과, 노즐 출구 부근에서 발생되는 강한 비평형성 및 넓은 후방 유동 영역 등과 같이 희박영역에서 플룸이 가지는 고유의 특성들을 확인할 수 있었다.

The improvement of luminance and luminous efficiency is the one of the most important parts in AC-PDPs. To achieve high luminance and luminous efficiency, high VUV emission efficiency is needed. We measured the emission spectra of the vacuum ultraviolet(VUV) rays in surface discharge AC-PDP with ternary gas mixture of He-Ne-Xe. The influence of He-Ne-Xe gas-mixture ratio on excited $Xe^{\ast}$ resonant atoms and $Xe_2\;^{\ast}$ dimers has been investigated. It is found that luminous efficiency of ternary gas mixture, He-Ne-Xe, is shown to be much higher than that of binary gas mixture of Ne-Xe. For improving discharge luminous efficiency, we have studied VUV emission characteristics of ternary gas mixture, He(50%)-Ne-Xe and He(70%)-Ne-Xe with Xe concentration and filling gas pressure.

The calculated and measured dielectric constant of (1-x)(Al$\sub$1/2/Ta$\sub$1/2/)O$_2$-x(Mg$\sub$1/3/Ta$\sub$2/3/)O$_2$(O$\leq$x$\leq$1.0) solid solutions were investigated by variations of ionic polarizability and crystal structure. (Al$\sub$1/2/Ta$\sub$1/2/)O$_2$ and (Mg$\sub$1/3/Ta$\sub$2/3/)O$_2$were orthorhombic and tetragonal trirutile structure, respectively. When (Al$\sub$1/2/Ta$\sub$1/2/)O$_2$ was substituted by (Mg$\sub$1/3/Ta$\sub$2/3/)O$_2$, the phase transformed to tetragonal structure over 60 mole%. Because the ionic radius of (Mg$\sub$1/3/Ta$\sub$2/3/)O$_2$was slightly bigger than one of (A1$\sub$1/2/Ta$\sub$1/2)O$_2$, the cell parameters increased with an increase of (Mg$\sub$1/3/Ta$\sub$2/3/)O$_2$ substitution. The measured dielectric constant increased with an increase of (Mg$\sub$1/3/Ta$\sub$2/3/)O$_2$ substitution and coincided with dielectric mixing rule and the calculated dielectric constant with the molecular additivity rule. There were some differences between the measured and the calculated dielectric constant. The reason of the lowered dielectric constant comparing with the calculated one was compressed stress due to the electronic structure of tantalum.

지난 20여년 동안 반도체 레이저 다이오드는 주로 CD (DVD) 픽업용 (파장: 640 nm 이하) 및 통신용 (파장 1550 nm) 광원 분야에서 집중적으로 개발되어 왔다. 그러나 기술의 개발과 더불어 파장조절이 비교적 자유로워지고 광출력이 증대 되면서 기존의 레이저 고유의 영역까지 그 응용분야기 확대되고 있고, 이에 따라 고출력 반도체 레이저 다이오드의 시장 규모도 꾸준히 증가되고 있는 상황이다. 고출력 반도체 레이저 다이오드는 발진 파장 및 광출력에 따라 다양한 분야에 응용되고 있으며, 특히 발진파장이 808 nm 인 고출력 레이저 다이오드의 경우 재료가공, 펌핑용 광원 (DPSSL, 광섬유 레이저), 의료, 피부미용 (점 제거), 레이저 다이오드 디스플레이 등 가장 다양한 응용분야를 가진 광원 중의 하나라고 할 수 있다. MBE(Molecular Beam Epitaxy)로 성장된 InAlAs 에피층 (epi-layer)을 사용하여 고출력을 갚는 레이저 다이오드를 제작함에 있어서, 에피층은 결함 (defect)이 없는 우수한 단결정이 요구되지만, 실제 결정 성장 과정에서는 성장온도와 Al 조성비 등의 성장 조건의 변화에 따라 전기적 광학적 특성 및 신뢰성에 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 DLTS (Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy) 방법을 이용하여 InAlAs 양자점 에피층의 깊은 준위 거동을 조사하였다. DLTS 측정 결과, 0.3eV 부근의 point defect과 0.57 ~ 0.70 eV 영역의 trap이 조사되었으며, 이는 갈륨 (Ga) vacancy와 산소 원자의 복합체에 기인한 결함으로 분석된다.

A fulminant hepatitis is associated with massive liver cell necrosis and a high mortality rate. But survivors regenerate a normal liver and do not have chronic liver disease. This clinical course suggests that the acutely injured livers release a factor that allows a recovery from chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis. The objective of this study was to isolate and characterize an anti-fibrotic factor from acutely damaged rat livers. The liver cell necrosis was prepared from rat by warm ischemical perfusion and the perfusates were assessed against the growth inhibition of fat-storing cells (FSC). A liver-derived growth inhibitory factor (LDGIF) was purified from ischemically damaged rat livers by chromatographies on Sephacryl S-300, CM Sepharose, hydroxyapatite, and Superose 12. The LDGIF was isolated with an overall purification of 194-fold and 40% recovery. Although LDGIF was identified as the rat liver arginase by Nterminal sequence analysis, LDGIF exists as a monomer and the purified native arginase has a trimer form. Furthermore, LDGIF has a lower enzyme activity on the hydrolysis of L-arginine and a higher inhibitory effect on proliferation of FSC than the normal rat liver arginase. The catalytic activity of LDGIF is ascribed to the monomeric characteristics of the LDGIF. Therefore, the inhibitory action of LDGIF might not be due to the arginine depletion by the catalytic activity of arginase. In conclusion, the presence of the LDGIF could interpret the clinical course that serious fibrosis is not found in the liver of patients recovering from severe hepatic necrosis due to fulminant hepatitis, suggesting that this LDGIF may provide a novel target for the prevention and treatment of hepatic fibrosis.
