Isomeric trimethylbenzyl radicals were generated and vibronically excited from precursor 1,2,3,5-tetramethylbenzene, isodurene, with a large amount inert carrier gas helium in a corona excited supersonic expansion (CESE) using a pinhole-type glass nozzle. A long-path monochromator was used to record the visible vibronic emission spectra of the jet-cooled benzyl-type radicals in the $D_1{\rightarrow}D_0$ electronic transition. From the analysis of the spectra, we identified the evidence of the presence of three isomeric trimethylbenzyl radicals in the corona discharge, and obtained the electronic energy and a few vibrational mode frequencies in the ground electronic state for each isomer.

Vegetation shows unique spectrum characteristics compared with other materials. If such characteristics are used, land change pattern can be determined. Thus, vegetation has an absorption belt and a reflective belt in visible and near infrared, and reflectance is very high. Then, various methods of monitoring vegetation paying attention to the absorption wavelength region and reflective region of vegetation are proposed. However, there are various problems in grasping change of vegetation by NDVI, PVI, etc. It is very difficult especially to remove various noise ingredients in the received satellite data. Until now, it is difficult to compensate for shadow effect when NDVI is used in vegetation analysis. The results is, if the shadow is about 60% the pixel will be wrongly classified as may be vegetation or not.

Using a pinhole-type glass nozzle equipped for a corona-excited supersonic expansion (CESE), precursor 2,6-dichlorotoluene seeded in a large amount of inert carrier gas helium was discharged to produce jet-cooled but electronically excited benzyl-type radicals. The visible vibronic emission spectrum was recorded with a long-path monochromator to observe vibronic bands in the $D_1{\rightarrow}D_0$ electronic transition of benzyl-type radicals. The spectral analysis revealed the generation of not only the 2,6-dichlorobenzyl radical as a typical product, but also the o-chlorobenzyl radical as an unexpected species, which indicates the possible molecular rearrangement in eliminating a chlorine atom from the benzene ring. A possible mechanism is proposed for the formation of the o-chlorobenzyl radical from the precurs or in the gas phase.

Speech is classified into voiced signal and unvoiced signal. Since the amplitude of voiced fall off at about -20dB/decade, dynamic range is often compressed prior to spectral analysis so that details at weak, high frequencies may be visible[5][6] There is a distinct difference in spectrum slope between voiced signal and unvoiced signal. In this paper, we got the slope of each frame by using autocorrelation method, and determined voiced /unvoiced region. Also, we used energy to decide region of silence. To show experimental results, we allot to 1 value in voiced region, -1 value in unvoiced region and 0 value in silence region.

The low temperature luminescence and excitation, room-temperature UV-visible and infrared spectra of [Cr(${\pm})chxn_3]Cl_3$ (chxn=trans-1,2-cyclohexanediamine) have been measured. It is found that the zero-phonon line in the excitation spectrum splits into two components by $47\;cm^{-1}$. The eight electronic transitions due to spin-allowed and spin-forbidden are assigned. As expected, nitrogen atoms of chxn ligand have strong ${\sigma}-donor $properties toward chromium(Ⅲ). The positions and splittings of sharp-line transitions are analyzed as a function of the Cartesian bite (${\alpha}$) and twist (${\beta}$) angles to predict the metal-ligand geometry.

The polymerization of 2-ethynylpyridine by alkyl bromide carrying carbazole moiety, 6-(N-carbazolyl)hexyl bromide, relatively proceed well to give the corresponding poly[6'-(N-carbazolyl)hexyl-2-ethynylpyridinium bromide) in high yields under DMF reflux conditions without any initiator or catalyst. This polymerization was influenced upon the initial monomer concentration. The polymer yields and inherent viscosities of the resulting polymers were in the range of 34-85% and 0.11-0.21 dL/g, respectively. Instrumental analyses using NMR, IR, and UV-visible spectroscopies and elemental analysis indicated that the resulting polymer has a conjugated polymer backbone system carrying pyridine and n-hexyl carbazole moiety. The polymers were mostly brown powders and completely soluble in DMF, DMSO, nitrobenzene, and formic acid. The photoluminescence spectrum of the dilute polymer solution with the excitation at 383 nm exhibited two sharp peaks at 495 and 540 nm.

Statement of problem. Although many studies have been carried out to investigate the correlation between the degree of conversion and the flexural strength of composite resins, there is minimal information in the literature attempting to compare degree of conversion, flexural strength and their correlation between restorative composite resins and flowable composite resins. Purpose. The purposes of this study were to measure the degree of conversion and flexural strength of composite resins with different rheological behavior and to correlate the two properties. Materials and methods. Four restorative (Vit-1-escence, Z-250, Tetric ceram, Esthet-X) and four flowable (Aeliteflo, Admiraflow, Permaflo, Revolution) light-curing composite resins were investigated. The degree of conversion(DC) was analyzed with Fourier transfer infra-red spectroscopy(FTIR) spectrum by a potassium bromide(KBr) pellet transmission method. The spectrum of the unpolymerized specimen had been measured before the specimen was irradiated for 60s with a visible light curing unit. The Poiymerized specimen was scanned for its in spectrum. The flexural strength(FS) was measured with 3-point bending test according to ISO 4049 after storage in water at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The data were statistically analyzed by an independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA at the significance level of 0.05. The dependence of flexural strength on the degree of conversion was also analyzed by regression analysis. Results. Mean DC and FS values ranged from 43% to 61% and from 84.7MPa to 156.7MPa respectively. DC values of the flowable composite resins were significantly higher than those of restorative composite resins (P < 0.05). The FS values of restorative composite resins were greater than those of flowable composite resins. No statistically significant correlation was observed between the DC and the FS tested in any of the composites. The dependence of FS on DC in restorative or flowable composite resins was not significant. Conclusion. It can be concluded that radical polymerization of the organic matrix is not a major factor in determining flexural strength of the commercially available composite resins.

South Korea is pushing for the advancement of crop production technology to achieve food self-sufficiency and meet the demand for safe food. A medium-sized satellite for agriculture is being launched in 2023 with the aim of collecting and providing information on agriculture, not only in Korea but also in neighboring countries. The satellite is to be equipped with various sensors, though reference data for ground information are lacking. Hyperspectral remote sensing combined with 1st derivative is an efficient tool for the identification of agricultural crops. In our study, we develop a system for hyperspectral analysis of the ground-based reflectance spectrum, which is monitored seven times during the cultivation period of three soybean crops using a PSR-2500 hyperspectral sensor. In the reflection spectrum of soybean canopy, wavelength variations correspond with stages of soybean growths. The spectral reflection characteristics of soybeans can be divided according to growth into the vegetative (V)stage and the reproductive (R)stage. As a result of the first derivative analysis of the spectral reflection characteristics, it is possible to identify the characteristics of each wavelength band. Using our developed monitoring system, we observed that the near-infrared (NIR) variation was largest during the vegetative (V1-V3) stage, followed by a similar variation pattern in the order of red-edge and visible. In the reproductive stage (R1-R8), the effect of the shape and color of the soybean leaf was reflected, and the pattern is different from that in the vegetative (V) stage. At the R1 to R6 stages, the variation in NIR was the largest, and red-edge and green showed similar variation patterns, but red showed little change. In particular, the reflectance characteristics of the R1 stage provides information that could help us distinguish between the three varieties of soybean that were studied. In the R7-R8 stage, close to the harvest period, the red-edge and NIR variation patterns and the visible variation patterns changed. These results are interpreted as a result of the large effects of pigments such as chlorophyll for each of the three soybean varieties, as well as from the formation and color of the leaf and stem. The results obtained in this study provide useful information that helps us to determine the wavelength width and range of the optimal band for monitoring and acquiring vegetation information on crops using satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)

The extraction and quantitative analysis conditions for astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis, and the structural characteristics of H. pluvialis extract, H. pluvialis hydrolysate and synthetic astaxanthin were investigated using UV/visible and FT-IR spectrometers. Astaxanthin was dissolved in methanol, and then treated to enhance the solubility by sonication for 45 min. With sonication pretreatment, the solubility of astaxanthin increased up to 1.5 times compared to that without sonication. The extracts were hydrolyzed by cholesterol esterase for the analysis of H. pluvialis extract containing astaxanthin ester. A HPLC method using reverse phase C18 column with methanol-water (95:5, v/v) as mobile phase was developed to analyze astaxanthin. After hydrolysis, the absorption spectrum of H. pluvialis hydrolysat was changed to similar pattern to synthetic astaxanthin, confirming the extraction and analysis condition of astaxanthin from H. pluvialis.

This study examined non-destructive UV-Vis spectrophotometry as well as 3-D fluorescence spectrophotometry of textile that made use of red dye such as Sappan wood, madder, Safflower, Gromwell. The authors produced two textile specimen that were dyed by not only two kinds of textile (cotton and silk) but also three kinds of mordanting (no-mordanting, alumen and iron), and they investigated effects of each dye material upon investigation results. At analysis with UV-Vis spectrophotometry of dyed textile specimen, dyeing made by sappan wood, madder and gromwell had significant difference depending upon mardant regardless of kinds of textile, and safflower had no significant difference depending upon textile and mordant. At analysis with 3D-fluorescence spectrophotometry, specimen dyed with sappan wood had difference with mordants, and with madder, there were difference with textiles, and safflower had inherent fluorescence spectrum regardless of textiles and mordants, while gromwell had no fluorescence spectrum.
