This study was performed to investigate the effects of infrared and visible light laser irradiation on cell viability of human gingival fibroblast. For the present study, the author used cultured fibroblast originated from sound gingiva which were fifth of sixth passage. Laser machine utilized here were stomalaser which irradiate infrared (GaAs diode) and red (HeNe) laser in turn with pulse wave pattern or continuous wave pattern, and the machine had several frequency mode presented by regeneration, relaxation and analgesic modalities. Cultured fibroblast samples were divided by this modalities of cell counts and laser exposure time which were 7-seconds of 150 seconds, respectively. 1 day after laser irradiation, each cell-well was treated with MTT and measured optical density with ELISA. The obtained results were as follows : 1. There was a tendency of increasing optical density in proportion to irradiation time in groups of $1\times10^4$ cell per well but in groups of $5\times10^3$ cell per well, reverse phenomena were observed. 2. The difference of optical density according to frequency modalities were not showed significantly except several cases in groups of $5\times10^3$ cell per well. 3. In general, cell viability of cultured human gingival fibroblast wer not showed consistent feature by low level laser irradiation.

사람과 전자기기들은 우리 주변의 환경 속, 특히 병원의 자기 공명 영상(Magnetic resonance imaging, MRI) 장비 또는 군용으로 사용되는 전자기 펄스(Electromagnetic pulse, EMP) 장비, 그리고 수많은 전자파를 만들어 내는 장치들에 노출되는 경우가 잦아졌다. 이러한 전자파는 사람과 전자기기에 유해하고, 이를 차폐하기 위해 사용되는 것 중에 하나가 핑거 스트립이다. 핑거 스트립은 열전도성이 좋기 때문에 전자파를 흡수하여 열로 변환한다. 이 특징을 효과적으로 이용하여 전자파 차폐가 필요한 실내의 특수 문짝에 핑거 스트립을 설치해서, 전자파로부터 사람과 전자기기들을 보호한다. 본 연구에서는 핑거 스트립의 주 고장모드에 영향을 주는 가속인자로 하중을 선택하여 가속수명시험을 실시한다. 가속수명시험의 결과로부터 핑거 스트립의 실사용조건 수명을 예측하며, 동일한 조건에서 실시한 수명 시험 결과와 비교하여 가속수명시험의 유효성을 평가하고자 하였다.

Korea Polar Research Institute (KOPRI) installed an ionospheric sounding radar system called Vertical Incidence Pulsed Ionospheric Radar (VIPIR) at Jang Bogo Station (JBS) in 2015 in order to routinely monitor the state of the ionosphere in the auroral oval and polar cap regions. Since 2017, after two-year test operation, it has been continuously operated to produce various ionospheric parameters. In this article, we will introduce the characteristics of the JBS-VIPIR observations and possible applications of the data for the study on the polar ionosphere. The JBS-VIPIR utilizes a log periodic transmit antenna that transmits 0.5-25 MHz radio waves, and a receiving array of 8 dipole antennas. It is operated in the Dynasonde B-mode pulse scheme and utilizes the 3-D inversion program, called NeXtYZ, for the data acquisition and processing, instead of the conventional 1-D inversion procedure as used in the most of digisonde observations. The JBS-VIPIR outputs include the height profiles of the electron density, ionospheric tilts, and ion drifts with a 2-minute temporal resolution in the bottomside ionosphere. With these observations, possible research applications will be briefly described in combination with other observations for the aurora, the neutral atmosphere and the magnetosphere simultaneously conducted at JBS.

비아 필링에 있어서 void나 seam 생성이 없이 비아를 채우는 것은 매우 중요한 사항으로 전류밀도, 전류모드, 첨가제 등을 변화시켜 결함없는 비아를 얻어왔다. 그러나 다양한 첨가제의 부산물이 오염의 원인이 되며 도금액의 수명을 줄이는 문제점이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 오염을 최소화하기 위하여 다른 첨가제가 없이 JGB만을 사용하여 JGB 농도와 전류밀도 변화에 따른 비아 필링 현상을 연구하였다. 지름이 $15{\mu}m$이며 종횡비 4인 비아가 사용되었으며 펄스전류를 이용하여 도금을 하였다. 전류밀도는 $10{\sim}20mA/cm^2$, JGB 농도는 0~25 ppm까지 변화시키면서 JGB 농도와 전류밀도와 의 상관관계를 mapping 하였다. 그로부터 지름이 $15{\mu}m$이며 종횡비 4인 비아 필링의 최적 조건을 확립하였다.

본 논문에서는 다이오드 정류기와 부스트 컨버터가 결합되 단상 PWM컨버터의 역률보상 및 고조파 저감 기법에 관하여 연구하였다. 일반적인 다이오드 정류기의 경우에서는 전원 입력측에 불연속 펄스 전류가 흘러서 역률의 저하 및 고조파 왜곡이 포함되어 다른 전원계통에 악영향을 주는 문제점이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 3차 고조파가 주입된 PWM 기법을 사용하여 입력전류에서의 고조파왜곡이 감소되는 AC-DC 부스트 컨버트를 제안하였다. 이때의 부스트 컨버터는 스위칭 손실 및 회로구성이 용이한 불연속적전류모드 제어방식을 채용하였다. 스위칭 주파수가 5[kHz]인 컨버터를 구성하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 행하였으며 그 결과 역률 보상 및 전 고조파 왜곡이 감소되었음을 확인하였다.

Optical fiber temperature sensing systems have incomparable advantages over traditional electrical-cable-based monitoring systems. However, the fiber optic interrogators and sensors have often been rejected as a temperature monitoring technology in real-world industrial applications because of high cost and over-specification. This study proposes a multiplexed fiber optic temperature monitoring sensor system using an economical Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) and Hard-Polymer-Clad Fiber (HPCF). HPCF is a special optical fiber in which a hard polymer cladding made of fluoroacrylate acts as a protective coating for an inner silica core. An OTDR is an optical loss measurement system that provides optical loss and event distance measurement in real time. A temperature sensor array with the five sensor nodes at 10-m interval was economically and quickly made by locally stripping HPCF clad through photo-thermal and photo-chemical processes using a continuous/pulse hybrid-mode laser. The exposed cores created backscattering signals in the OTDR attenuation trace. It was demonstrated that the backscattering peaks were independently sensitive to temperature variation. Since the 1.5-mm-long exposed core showed a 5-m-wide backscattering peak, the OTDR with a spatial resolution of 40 mm allows for making a sensor node at every 5 m for independent multiplexing. The performance of the sensor node included an operating range of up to $120^{\circ}C$, a resolution of $0.59^{\circ}C$, and a temperature sensitivity of $-0.00967dB/^{\circ}C$. Temperature monitoring errors in the environment tests stood at $0.76^{\circ}C$ and $0.36^{\circ}C$ under the temperature variation of the unstrapped fiber region and the vibration of the sensor node. The small sensitivities to the environment and the economic feasibility of the highly multiplexed HPCF temperature monitoring sensor system will be important advantages for use as system-integrated temperature sensors.

Blocking or regulating $K^+$ channels is important for investigating neuronal functions in mammalian brains, because voltage-dependent $K^+$ channels (Kv channels) play roles to regulate membrane excitabilities for synaptic and somatic processings in neurons. Although a number of toxins and chemicals are useful to change gating properties of Kv channels, specific effects of each toxin on a particular Kv subunit have not been sufficiently demonstrated in neurons yet. In this study, we tested electro-physiologically if heteropodatoxin2 ($HpTX_2$), known as one of Kv4-specific toxins, might be effective on various $K^+$ outward currents in CA1 neurons of organotypic hippocampal slices of rats. Using a nucleated-patch technique and a pre-pulse protocol in voltage-clamp mode, total $K^+$ outward currents recorded in the soma of CA1 neurons were separated into two components, transient and sustained currents. The extracellular application of $HpTX_2$ weakly but significantly reduced transient currents. However, when $HpTX_2$ was added to internal solution, the significant reduction of amplitudes were observed in sustained currents but not in transient currents. This indicates the non-specificity of $HpTX_2$ effects on Kv4 family. Compared with the effect of cytosolic 4-AP to block transient currents, it is possible that cytosolic $HpTX_2$ is pharmacologically specific to sustained currents in CA1 neurons. These results suggest that distinctive actions of $HpTX_2$ inside and outside of neurons are very efficient to selectively reduce specific $K^+$ outward currents.

본 논문에서는 새로운 소프트 스위칭형 PFC 벅-부스트 AC-DC 컨버터에 대해 연구된다. 제안된 컨버터에 사용된 제어스위치의 턴-온과 턴-오프는 부분공진 동작에 의해 소프트 스위칭으로 되어 스위칭 손실을 줄이고, 입력전류는 듀티율 일정제어에 의한 교류 입력전압의 크기에 비례된 불연속적 유사 펄스열의 정현파 형태를 가진다. 그 결과 컨버터는 효율이 증대되고 입력역률이 증대되는 효과를 가진다. 또한 제안된 컨버터의 출력전압은 제어스위치의 PWM 제어에 의해 조정되고 벅-부스트용 인덕터에 흐르는 전류는 불연속모드로 제어되어 제어회로와 제어기법이 간단한 장점이 주어진다. 제안된 PFC 벅-부스트 컨버터는 기존의 PFC 벅-부스트 컨버터와 비교되어 해석되고 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 그 해석적 타당성이 입증된다.

In this study, we present the modern hybrid system based power generation for electric vehicle applications. We describe the hybrid structure of modified current source based DC - DC converters used to extract the maximum power from Photovoltaic (PV) and Fuel Cell system. Due to reduced dc-link capacitor requirement and higher reliability, the current source inverters (CSI) better compared to the voltage source based inverter. The novel control strategy includes Distributed Maximum Power Point Tracking (DMPPT) for photovoltaic (PV) and fuel cell power generation system. The proposed DC - DC converters have been analyzed in both buck and boost mode of operation under duty cycle 0.5>d, 0.5<d<1 and 0.5<d for capable electric vehicle applications. The proposed topology benefits include one common DC-AC inverter that interposes the generated power to supply the charge for the sharing of load in a system of hybrid supply with photovoltaic panels and fuel cell PEM. An improved control of Direct Torque and Flux Control (DTFC) based induction motor fed by current source converters for electric vehicle.In order to achieve better performance in terms of speed, power and miles per gallon for the expert, to accepting high regenerative braking current as well as persistent high dynamics driving performance is required. A simulation model for the hybrid power generation system based electric vehicle has been developed by using MATLAB/Simulink. The Direct Torque and Flux Control (DTFC) is planned using Xilinx ISE software tool in addition to a Modelsim 6.3 software tool that is used for simulation purposes. The FPGA based pulse generation is used to control the induction motor for electric vehicle applications. FPGA has been implemented, in order to verify the minimal error between the simulation results of MATLAB/Simulink and experimental results.

바닷물 중의 미량 철을 별도의 사전 농축이나 분리절차 없이 바로 정량할 수 있을 만큼 예민하면서 비용이 절감되는 손쉬운 흡착 벗김 분석 방법을 제안한다. 용액의 pH가 8.0인 붕산염 완충액에서 철/카테콜 착물을 수은 방울전극에 흡착시켜 수집한 후 음극 벗김과정을 수행하면서 펄스차이 방식 전류를 측정한다. 최적조건은 2.5 mM 붕산염, pH 8.0, 2 mM 카테콜, 수집전위 -0.25 V, 수집시간 1~3분이었다. 이 조건에서의 검출한계는 1.5 nM Fe였다. 붕산염 완충용액(높은 pH)의 사용은 기존의 지지전해질에서 문제되던 구리의 방해를 피할 수 있음은 물론 바탕선의 기울기가 완만해져 바탕선 잡기가 매우 좋았으므로 정밀성의 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 표준물 첨가법에 의해 실제시료에 적용해 본 결과 기대에 잘 부합하였다.
