In an examination of the temporomandibular joint disc, MRI(Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a useful method, and it is necessary to conduct an examination with one's mouth open for a long time to observe the accurate position change of the disc. Thus, this study would produce a TMJ device, using the 3-D printing technology, which would maintain the state of opening the mouth and would evaluate its usefulness as compared to the existing fixed device. As compared to the image using the existing TMJ device, the image taken with the self-produced TMJ device with a 3-D printer showed a somewhat lower SNR, but there was no defect for a clinical use. It is judged that benefits to costs would increase, since it can be customized for the individual patient and can contribute to the production of similar tools by utilizing the 3-D printing technology.

Block copolymer micelles are generally formed via the self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolymers in an aqueous medium. The hydrophilic and hydrophobic blocks form shell and core micelles, respectively. The block copolymers of methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG)-b-poly(2-diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate (PDPA) were synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization, with the macro initiator synthesized by the coupling of 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide with MPEG in the presence of a triethyl amine base catalyst. The atom transfer radical polymerization of 2-diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate was performed in conjunction with an N,N,N',N",N"-pentamethyl-diethylenetriamine/copper bromide catalyst system, in DMF, at $70^{\circ}C$. The pH induced micellization/demicellization was studied using fluorescence, with a pyrene probe. Furthermore, the pH dependent micellization was confirmed using the microviscosity method, with a dipyme fluorescence probe. The pH dependant micelle size distribution was studied using dynamic light scattering. The characterization of the synthesized polymers was established using gel permeation chromatography and from the $^1H-nuclear$ magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Wearable and ubiquitous micro systems will be greatly growing and their related devices should be self-powered in order to avoid the replacement of finite power sources, for example, by scavenging energy from the environment. With ever reducing power requirements of both analog and digital circuits, power scavenging approaches are becoming increasingly realistic. One approach is to drive an electromechanical converter from ambient motion or vibration. Vibration-driven generators based on electromagnetic, electrostatic and piezoelectric technologies have been demonstrated. Among various generator types proposed so far, piezoelectric generator possesses considerable potential in micro system. To overcome low mechanical-to-electric energy conversion, the piezoelectric device should activate in resonance mode in response to external vibration. Normally, the external vibration excretes at low frequency ranging 0.1 to 200 Hz, whereas the resonant frequencies of the devices are fixed as constant. Therefore, keeping their resonant mode in varying external vibration can be one of important points in enhancing the conversion efficiency. We investigated the possibility of use of multi-bender type piezoelectric devices. To match the external vibration frequency with the device resonant frequency, the various devices with different resonant frequency were chosen.

Statement of Problem. Objective and quantitative measurement of implant stability is very important from implant installation to long-lasting maintenance period thereafter. Purpose of study. This study was to evaluate and compare two ISQ and PTVs on the implant stability measurements according to the increased effective implant length. Materials and methods. Twenty self-tapping fixtures were installed in the bovine scapula and in 10 of those for group I, ISQ and PTVs were obtained in the vertical/horizontal directions according to the increased effective implant length using $Osstell^{TM}$ and $Periotest^{(R)}$. After stability measurement, removal torques were measured between the after installation and after thread exposure group. Results. ISQ and PTVs showed decreased and increased values according to the increased abutment length. Apart from PTVs, ISQ values were shown higher in horizontal direction to the long axis of bone in both the after installation and the after thread exposure groups. Removal torque values were shown higher in after installation group. Conclusion. From the results of this study, implant stability measurement using resonance frequency analysis was more sensitive and discriminative than PTVs measurement.

The 9.17MeV gamma-rays from the $^{13}C(p,\;{\gamma})^{14}N,\;^{14}N({\gamma},\;{\gamma})^{14}N$ reactions were measured. The incident 9.17MeV gamma-ray was produced from the $^{13}C(p,\;{\gamma})^{14}N$ reaction at Ep=1.75MeV resonance. The 1.75MeV proton beam was accelerated using the 3MV SNU-AMS Tandetron and 1.7MV KIGAM Tandem accelerators. The enriched 13C target was $121{\mu}g/cm^2$ self-supporting foil, and we used liquid nitrogen as a resonant absorption target. We used a HP-Ge detector with 30% efficiency and less 2keV energy resolution. We developed new method to detect the scattered 9.17MeV gamma-ray from the nitrogen target by using the energy difference between the Doppler shifted gamma-ray from the $^{13}C(p,\;{\gamma})^{14}N$ reaction and the resonant absorbed and rescattered gamma-ray from the $^{14}N({\gamma},\;{\gamma})^{14}N$ reaction.

The aim of the study was to investigate the neural substrates associated with processing anger among young males with alcohol use disorders (AUDs) using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Eighteen individuals with AUD and 15 demographically similar non-abusers participated in the study. Participants were scanned on their brain functioning while they viewed an audio-visual film clip that was previously designed specifically to induce anger emotion, followed by anpsychological assessment. Greater brain activities were detected in the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) among subjects with AUD compared to the controls during the exposure to anger-provoking stimuli. Despite the same level of subjective anger during anger induction, the greater activations both in the IFG and dACC regions may suggestthat individuals with AUD have a greater propensity to undergo cognitive control and self-regulation while experiencing anger.

표면 플라즈몬 공진(SPR) 현상을 이용한 광섬유 센서는 SPR 센서의 우수한 표면 민감도, 비표지 검출능 등의 특징은 유지하면서 측정시스템이 단순해지고 저렴하게 제작이 가능하며 원거리 검출에 유리하다는 장점으로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 최근 스택 제어가 용이하고 민감도 또한 우수하다는 이유로 측면 연마형 센서 구조를 적용한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 Kretchman형태의 SPR 센서의 분해능 향상을 위해 사용된 광도파로 구조를 측면 연마형 광파이버에 적용시켰다. 금속 층 / 유전체 층 / 금속 층으로 구성되어 있는 광도파로 구조와 Au 단일 층을 사용한 기존 구조에 대한 이론 전사모사를 진행하고 실물 소자를 제작하여 특성을 평가하였다. WCSPR 센서에서는 두 개의 반사율 dips이 나타난다. 하나는 단파장영역에서 나타나는 폭이 작은 형태이며 또 다른 하나는 장파장영역에서 나타나는 폭이 넓은 형태이다. 단파장에서의 dip은 입사각에 크게 영향을 받지 않기 때문에 Wavelength interrogation mode을 이용하는 광섬유 SPR센서에 적용할 경우 분해능이 향상될 것 이다. WCSPR 센서는 도파로의 유전체층에서 진행되는 모드를 이용하면 Self-referencing을 할 수 있다, 또한 유전체 층의 두께를 변화 시켜 중심파장의 위치를 조절할 수 있는 특징을 갖고 있다. 결과적으로 광도파로 구조를 광파이버에 적용시켜 기존 Au 단일 층 구조의 SPR 센서에 비해 좀 더 정확하고 광범위한 감지를 할 수 있다.

The Hammett's substituent constants were interpreted for substituted stilbenes by HMO method. The appropriate quantum chemical indices are chosen as independent contribution of the inductive and the resonance effects for substituent constants. It has been found that theoretical values, ${\sigma}_p{^{th}}$, defined as sum of the net charge, self atom polarizability and difference in HOMO energy between substituted- and unsubstituted-stilbenes, correlated with experimental Hammett's substituent constants. The dipole moments were found to be correlated with differences in ${\sigma}_p{^{th}}$ between two substituents for disubstituted stilbenes. It has been also found that transition optical spectra, ${\lambda}_{max}$ of the substituted stilbenes depend on difference between the HOMO and the LUMO energy as expected.
