  • Purpose: To determine the conversion coefficients (CCs) from the dose-area product (DAP) value to effective dose in cone-beam CT. Materials and Methods: A CBCT scanner with four fields of view (FOV) was used. Using two exposure settings of the adult standard and low dose exposure, DAP values were measured with a DAP meter in C mode ($200mm{\times}179mm$), P mode ($154mm{\times}154mm$), I mode ($102mm{\times}102mm$), and D mode ($51mm{\times}51mm$). The effective doses were also investigated at each mode using an adult male head and neck phantom and thermoluminescent chips. Linear regressive analysis of the DAP and effective dose values was used to calculate the CCs for each CBCT examination. Results: For the C mode, the P mode at the maxilla, and the P mode at the mandible, the CCs were 0.049 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$, 0.067 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$, and 0.064 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$, respectively. For the I mode, the CCs at the maxilla and mandible were 0.076 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$ and 0.095 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$, respectively. For the D mode at the maxillary incisors, molars, and mandibular molars, the CCs were 0.038 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$, 0.041 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$, and 0.146 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$, respectively. Conclusion: The CCs in one CBCT device with fixed 80 kV ranged from 0.038 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$ to 0.146 ${\mu}Sv/mGycm^2$ according to the imaging modes and irradiated region and were highest for the D mode at the mandibular molar.

  • Seaweed Sargassum horneri extracts were obtained using supercritical carbon dioxide ($SC-CO_2$) and different solvents. $SC-CO_2$ was kept at a temperature of $45^{\circ}C$ and pressure of 250 bar. The flow rate of $CO_2$ (27 g/min) was constant during the entire 2-h extraction period, and ethanol was used as a cosolvent. Six different solvents [acetone, hexane, methanol, ethanol, acetone mix methanol (7:3), and hexane mix ethanol (9:1)] were used for extraction and agitated by magnetic stirring (250 rpm) in the dark at $25^{\circ}C$ for 20 h; the ratio of material to solvent was 1:10 (w/v). Antioxidant properties of S. horneri extracted using $SC-CO_2$ with ethanol and different solvents have shown good activity. The highest activity belongs to $SC-CO_2$ with ethanol extracted oil, showing DPPH, ABTS, total phenolic content, and total flavonoid levels of $68.38{\pm}1.21%$, $83.51{\pm}1.25%$, $0.64{\pm}0.02mg/g$, and $5.57{\pm}0.05mg/g$, respectively. The S. horneri extracts showed a significant correlation between the antioxidant activity and phenolic content. Based on these results, the $SC-CO_2$ extract (ethanol) of the seaweed extract from brown seaweed may be a valuable antioxidant source.

  • $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were grown on carbon fiber by atomic later deposition (ALD) with TTIP $(Ti(OCH(CH_3)_2)_4$ and $H_2O$ precusors. After sampe surfaces were treated by electron beam (1 MeV, 5 KGy), an improvement in the photocatalytic reacitivity of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles on carbon fiber was observed. An increase in the population of hydroxyl group on $TiO_2$ particles and the oxidation of carbon fiber were found upon e-beam exposure, whereas there was no noticeable changes of their morphology. It implies that those changes in O and C 1s state of $TiO_2$ particles/carbon fiber induced by e-beam treatment could be related to the enhancement of the photocatalytic activity. In contrast, when carbon fiber fully covered with $TiO_2$ thick films was treated with high-energy electron beam under same conditions, the improvement of photocatalytic activity as well as any changes in XPS spectra (Ti 2p, O 1s and C 1s) could not be found.

  • Cr-Mo 합금강은 고온 환경 하에서 높은 크리이프 강도와 우수한 내식성 때문에 발전설비, 석유 화학, 그리고 해양산업과 같은 여러 산업분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 특히, Cr-Mo 강의 내식성은 합금 내 Cr 함량에 크게 의존한다. 이는 고온에서 Cr과 O가 화학적 반응을 일으킴에 따라 보호성의 Cr 산화스케일을 형성하기 때문이다. 그러나 화석연료를 사용하는 발전설비의 경우, $SO_2$가 포함된 강한 부식성의 연소 가스가 배출되며, 이에 노출된 금속의 표면에서는 산화와 황화가 동시에 발생한다. 황화스케일은 산화스케일에 비해 매우 빠르게 성장하며, 그 특성이 매우 취약하기 때문에 황화 환경에서 금속의 내식성 및 기계적 물성치는 보다 크게 저하된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화력 발전소의 증기발생용 튜브 재료인 9Cr-1MoVNb 강을 선정하였으며, $SO_2$ 가스 환경 하에서의 부식 및 기계적 물성치 저하 특성을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 9Cr-1MoVNb강의 화학 성분 조성은 0.1 C, 0.38 Si, 0.46 Mn, 0.25 Ni, 8.38 Cr, 0.93 Mo, 0.18 V, 0.09 Nb, 그리고 나머지는 Fe이다. 부식시험은 가공된 미소시험편과 인장시험편을 전기열처리로에 장입한 후, $650^{\circ}C$에서 $N_2+O_2+O_2+SO_2$ 조성의 가스를 분당 50 CC로 흘려주었다. 제작된 시험편에 대한 부식거동은 무게 증가량, optical microscope, scanning electron microsope, 그리고 energy dispersive x-ray spectrum을 통해 평가하였다. 그리고 기계적 물성치 평가를 위한 인장시험은 분당 2mm 변위제어를 통해 실시하였다. 그 결과, 9Cr-1MoVNb 강은 $SO_2$ 가스 환경 하에서 비 보호적인 Fe-풍부상의 산화 스케일층이 두껍게 형성됨에 따라 열악한 내식성을 나타냈다. 그에 따라 기계적 물성치는 저하되는 경향을 나타내었다.

  • $CuInS_2$ thin films were synthesized by sulpurization of Cu/In Stacked elemental layer deposited onto glass Substrates by vacuum furance annealing at temperature 200[$^{\circ}C$]. And structural and electrical properties were measured in order to certify optimum conditions for growth of the ternary compound semiconductor $CuInS_2$ thin films with non-stoichiometry composition. $CuInS_2$ thin film was well made at the heat treatment 200 [$^{\circ}C$] of SLG/Cu/In/S stacked elemental layer which was prepared by thermal evaporator, and chemical composition of the thin film was analyzed nearly as the proportion of 1:1:2. Physical properties of the thin film were investigated at various fabrication conditions substrate temperature, annealing and temperature, annealing time by XRD, FE-SEM and hall measurement system. At the same time, carrier concentration, hall mobility and resistivity of the thin films was $9.10568{\times}10^{17}[cm^{-3}]$, $312.502[cm^2/V{\cdot}s]$ and $2.36{\times}10^{-2}[{\Omega}{\cdot}cm]$, respectively.

  • $ZrO_2-dopedYb_2O_3solid$ solutions containing 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 mol% $ZrO_2were$ synthesized from spectroscopically pure $Yb_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2$ powders and found to be rare earth C-type structure by XRD technique. Electrical conductivities were measured as a function of temperatures from 700 to $1050^{\circ}C$ and oxygen partial pressures from 1${\times}$$10^-5$ to 2${\times}$ $10^-1$atm. The electrical conductivities depend simply on temperature and the activation energies are determined to be 1.56-1.68 $_eV$. The oxygen partial pressure dependence of the electrical conductivity shows that the conductivity increases with increasing oxygen partial pressure, indicating p-type semiconductor. The $PO_2$ dependence of the system is nearly power of 1/4. It is suggested from the linearity of the temperature dependence of electrical conductivity and only one value of 1/n that the solid solutions of the system have single conduction mechanism. From these results, it is concluded that the main defects of the system are negatively doubly charged oxygen interstitial in low. $ZrO_2doping$ level and negatively triply charged cation vacancy in high doping level and the electrical conduction is due to the electronic hole formed by the defect structure.

  • The complex 1 $([Cp*Fe(CO)_2]_2-(\mu-CH=CH-CH=CH))$ which have butadiene as a bridge were synthesized from $Cp*(CO)_2FeK$ and cis-3,4-dichlorocyclobutene. The derivatives of complex 1 where one or two carbonyl groups are replaced by phosphine ligands have been prepared by photochemical substitution. The new derivatives $([Cp*Fe(L)_2]_2-(\mu-CH=CH-CH=CH))$ where L = $(Ph_2PCH_2CH_2PPh_2)$ and $([Cp*Fe(CO)(L)]_2-(\mu-CH=CH-CH=CH))$ where L : $PPh_3$ have been characterized from $^^1H-$, $^^13C-$,$^^31P-NMR$ and elemental analysis. Obtained complexes have been studied in electrochemical experiment and UV/VIS-near-IR. The mixed-valence radical cation forms of complex 2, 3 species were found to be delocalized as the Class III. Based on the separation of the waves ($\triangle E$ : 0.470 ~ 0.605 V), the efficiency of electronic communication between two metal centers of cation species leading to stabilization relative to neutral species. The phosphine-substitute complexes (2, 3) displays two reversible oxidation waves and oxidation state of metal centers-dependent color change, electrochromism, was observed from yellow to orange and deep blue in methylene chloride.

  • An L(3, 2, 1)-labeling for the graph G = (V, E) is an assignment f of a label to each vertices of G such that ${\mid}f(u)-f({\upsilon}){\mid}{\geq}4-k$ when $dist(u,{\upsilon})=k{\leq}3$. The L(3, 2, 1)-labeling number, denoted by ${\lambda}_{3,2,1}(G)$, for G is the smallest number N such that there is an L(3, 2, 1)-labeling for G with span N. In this paper, we compute the L(3, 2, 1)-labeling number ${\lambda}_{3,2,1}(G)$ when G is a cylindrical grid, which is the cartesian product $P_m{\Box}C_n$ of the path and the cycle, when $m{\geq}4$ and $n{\geq}138$. Especially when n is a multiple of 4, or m = 4 and n is a multiple of 6, then we have ${\lambda}_{3,2,1}(G)=11$. Otherwise ${\lambda}_{3,2,1}(G)=12$.

  • A novel multi-layer type micro gas sensor for $NO_X$ detection was designed and fabricated. Micro platform defined as type II-1 in this article for micro gas sensor was fabricated using the MEMS technology to meet the demanding needs of lower power consumption. Nano composite materials were fabricated with nanosized tin oxide powder and $\underline{m}$ulti-$\underline{w}$all $\underline{c}$arbon $\underline{n}$ano $\underline{t}$ube (MWCNT) to improve sensitivity. We investigated characteristics of fabricated multi-layer type micro gas sensor with $NO_2$ concentration variations at constant 2.2 V. Sensitivity (S) of micro gas sensor were observed to increase from 2.9, to 7.4 and 11.2 as concentrations of $NO_2$ gases increased from 2.4 ppm, to 3.6 ppm and 4.9 ppm. When 2.4 ppm of $NO_2$ gas was applied, response time and recovery time of micro gas sensor were recorded as 101 seconds and 142 seconds, respectively.

  • The authors have demonstrated white oraganic light-emitting diodes (WOLED) using 1,4-bis[2-(4'-diphenylaminobiphenyl-4-yl)vinyl]benzene as fluorescent blue emitter and iridium(III) bis(5-acetyl-2-phenylpyridinato-N,C2') acetylacetonate as phosphorescent red emitter. The optimized WOLED using red host material as bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinato) -4-phenylphenolate exhibited proper color stability in comparison with the control device using 4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazole-biphenyl as red host. The white device showed a maximum luminance of 21100 $cd/m^2$ at 14 V, luminous efficiency of 9.7 cd/A at 20 $mA/cm^2$, and Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage ($CIE_{x,y}$)coordinates of (0.32, 0.34) at 1000 $cd/m^2$. The devices also exhibited the color shift with ${\Delta}CIE_{x,y}$ coordinates of ${\pm}$ (0.01,0.01) from 100 to 20000 $cd/m^2$.
