  • By using high resolution x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we show that inelastic scattering of photoelectron at low temperature (30K~50K) generates two kinds of oxygen species on Pt (111) surface. Intense synchrotron radiation source dissociates oxygen molecules into chemisorbed atomic oxygen and induces the formation of PtO on surface. Estimated coverage of dissociated atomic oxygen is 0.5 ML, suggesting possible formation of p($2{\times}1$) surface structure, while PtO coverage shows saturation coverage of 0.5 ML. Molecular oxygen dosed at 30 K undergoes thermally activated transition from physisorbed to chemisorbed state at around 40K.

  • Recently, nanostructure and the molecular orientation of organic thin films have been largely paid attention due to its importance in organic electronics such as organic thin film transistors (OTFTs), organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). Among various methods, the diffraction and scattering techniques based on synchrotron x-rays have shown powerful results in organic thin film systems. In this work, we introduce the in-situ annealing system installed at PLS-II (Pohang Light Source II) for organic thin films by simultaneously conducting various x-ray scattering measurements of x-ray reflectivity, conventional x-ray scattering, grazing incidence wide angle x-ray scattering (GI-WAXS) and so on. Using the in-situ measurement, we could obtain real time variation of nanostructure as well as molecular orientation during thermal annealing in metal-phthalocyanine thin films. The variation of surface and interface also could be simultaneously investigated by the x-ray reflectivity measurement.

  • The characteristics of $Al_2O_3/Ag/Al_2O_3$ multilayer passivaton prepared by twin target sputtering (TTS) system for organic light emitting diodes. The $Al_2O_3/Ag/Al_2O_3$ multilayer thin film passivation on a PET substrate had a high transmittance of 86.44 % and low water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of $0.011\;g/m^2$-day due to the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Ag interlayer and effective multilayer structure for preventing the intrusion of water vapor. Using synchrotron x-ray scattering and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) examinations, we investigated the growth behavior of Ag layer on the $Al_2O_3$ layer to explain the SPR effect of the Ag layer. This indicates that an $Al_2O_3/Ag/Al_2O_3$ multilayer passivation is a promising thin film passivation scheme for organic based flexible optoelectronics.

  • 2FGL J1823.8+4312 and 2FGL J1304.1-2415 are two unidentified Fermi objects which are associated with cluster of galaxies. In order to exam the possibility of cluster of galaxies as gamma-ray emitters, we search for counterpart of these two unidentified Fermi objects in other wavebands. However, we find other candidate to be more likely the counterpart of the unidentified Fermi object for both sources. We compare their light curves and SEDs in order to identify their source types. However, data at millimeter and sub-millimeter wavebands, which is important for us to constrain the SED at synchrotron peak, is lacking of measurement. Therefore, we proposed to SMA observation for these two sources. We have got data and are doing further analysis.

  • The helium liquefier was installed for 7.5 T superconducting wiggler, which is a source of synchrotron radiation, in Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) in 1995. It is MODEL 1410 fabricated by LINDE (old PSI America) of which capacity is about 17 liter per hour in normal mode and 47 liter per hour with liquid nitrogen pre-cooling. In addition to SC wiggler, we are anticipating that some devices related to electron accelerator are to be upgraded with superconducting application in order to improve the quality of photon beam.

  • Polarization is a basic property of light and is fundamentally linked to the internal geometry of a source of radiation. Polarimetry complements photometric, spectroscopic, and imaging analyses of sources of radiation and has made possible multiple astrophysical discoveries. In this article I review (i) the physical basics of polarization: electromagnetic waves, photons, and parameterizations; (ii) astrophysical sources of polarization: scattering, synchrotron radiation, active media, and the Zeeman, Goldreich-Kylafis, and Hanle effects, as well as interactions between polarization and matter (like birefringence, Faraday rotation, or the Chandrasekhar-Fermi effect); (iii) observational methodology: on-sky geometry, influence of atmosphere and instrumental polarization, polarization statistics, and observational techniques for radio, optical, and $X/{\gamma}$ wavelengths; and (iv) science cases for astronomical polarimetry: solar and stellar physics, planetary system bodies, interstellar matter, astrobiology, astronomical masers, pulsars, galactic magnetic fields, gamma-ray bursts, active galactic nuclei, and cosmic microwave background radiation.

  • Dependences of total photoyields on incident photon energies were measured using synchrotron radiation light for different chemical-vapor-deposited diamond with differently treated surface. Results show that a considerable amount of gap states are presented for as-grown specimens with H-terminated, that negative electron affinity (NEA) is realized for H-plasma-treated specimens, and that sufficient O-treatment to NEA specimens results in positive electron affinity. The observed electron affinity can be explained in terms of differences in strength of the surface dipole layer formed by difference in the electron negativity among C, H and O atoms.

  • The Pohang Light Source (PLS) - II is a 3 GeV third-generation synchrotron radiation facility. To inject electron beam from LINAC, a kicker modulator system and kicker magnets are installed in the PLS-II storage ring tunnel. The injected beam then falls into the storage ring beam dynamic aperture. This paper describes the design and implementation of the solid-state kicker modulator for PLS-II. The solid-state kicker modulator is consisted of high voltage solid state switch stacks. the technical considerations of the solid-state switch stacking for kicker modulator is discussed. The achieved capability of the solid-state kicker modulator demonstrates that is fulfills the design requirement of providing half-sine pulsed current of 10kA (peak), 6us (Base-width), with jitter < 2ns (Standard deviation). simulation and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the solid-state kicker modulator.

  • The mechanics underlying photon and electron interactions was validated using our developed Brachytherapy computer code for high Dose Rate (HDR). By comparing the photon cross-section utilizing multiple physics libraries in the developed code, the results were benchmarked against experimental and theoretical findings. Klein-Nishina and experimental cross-section results were in good agreement with the Livermore library results. For two therapeutically relevant materials, the first scattered electron range was measured within 1 mm and 2 mm, which has significant implications for the interpretation of the kernel dose spikes observed in previous research.

  • 석류석은 하부맨틀의 최상부인 약 660 km깊이까지 올리빈, 휘석과 함께 주요한 구성광물 중의 하나이다. 석류석은 약 660 km를 지나 하부맨틀에서 페롭스카이트와 코런덤으로 상변이를 하는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 실험방법 및 상변이 깊이와 상변이 경로에 대해서 아직까지 논쟁의 대상이 되고 있다. 실험은 천연산 알만딘(($Fe_{2.52}Ca_{0.21}Mg_{0.18}Mn_{0.12})Al_{2.23}Si_{2.97}O_{12}$)에 마오-벨 타입의 다이아몬드 앤빌기기를 이용하여 실온에서 62 GPa까지 압축실험을 시행하여 체적탄성계수를 결정하였다. 실험결과는 다음과 같다 : 62 GPa에서 격자상수 = $10.775\;{\AA}$, 체적 = $1251.16\;{\AA}^{3}$, X-선밀도 = $5.265\;g/cm^{3}$, 버치-머내한 상태방정식을 이용하여 계산한 체적탄성계수는 156 GPa이다(이때 $K_{0}\;'$는 4로 가정함). 본 연구는 포항가속기연구소의 방사광을 이용하여 시행한 국내 첫 고압실험결과이다.
