의료산업의 성장은 의료수준 및 의료기기의 발전의 계기가 되었고, 이는 정확한 질병의 진단과 치료를 가능하게 하였다. 그러나 많은 수의 검사는 장비의 노후화를 야기하고, 환자의 피폭선량에 관여하기 때문에 국내에서는 정기적인 안전관리 체계를 구축하여 정도관리를 시행하고 있다. 그 중 정도관리 항목 중 하나인 kVp는 장비의 수명과 환자의 피폭선량에 직접 관여하는 부분이나, 정도관리의 시간과 비용의 문제점으로 정기적으로 시행하는 데에는 한계가 따르고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 kVp 측정에 Cu와 Y을 이용하여 kVp 측정의 실효성과 유용성을 평가하고 또한 제안하고자 하는 정도관리 방법의 정확성을 평가하여 kVp 측정의 정도관리 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 실험방법은 Cu와 Y이 같은 필름농도를 내는 조건의 kVp를 찾아 Cu와 Y을 통한 kVp 측정의 실효성과 유용성을 평가한다. 농도 범위가 0.5 ~ 1.0을 내는 관전압과 관전류 량의 조건을 고정한 뒤, Cu와 Y이 같은 농도를 내는 kVp의 Y에 대한 Cu의 비의 백분율을 기준점 100%로 정하여, ${\pm}10%$범위로 kVp를 변화시켜가며 Y에 대한 Cu의 백분율의 농도비를 기록하여 농도단계를 만든다. 실험 결과 같은 농도를 내는 kVp의 Y에 대한 Cu의 백분율의 농도비를 기준으로 ${\pm}10%$ 범위의 Y에 대한 Cu의 백분율의 농도비가 85 ~ 110%로 일정한 단계를 가진다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $BaIn_2Se_4$ epilayers was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $BaIn_2Se_4$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $620^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of the epilayers was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of $BaIn_2Se_4$ epilayers measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $8.94{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3}$ and 343 $cm^2/vs$ at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $BaIn_2Se_4$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)$=2.6261 eV-$(4.9825{\times}10^{-3}eV/K)T^2/(T+558 K)$. The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the $BaIn_2Se_4$ have been estimated to be 116 meV and 175.9 meV, respectively, by means of the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the ${\Delta}so$ definitely exists in the ${\Gamma}_5$ states of the valence band of the $BaIn_2Se_4/GaAs$ epilayer. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10 K are ascribed to the $A_1-$, $B_1$-exciton for n = 1 and $C_{21}$-exciton peaks for n=21.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $BaAl_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $BaAl_2Se_4$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $610^{\circ}C$ and $410^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of $BaAl_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $8.29{\times}10^{-16}cm^{-3}$ and $278cm^2/vs$ at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $BaAl_2Se_4$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)=3.4205eV-(4.3112{\times}10^{-4}eV/K)T^2/(T+232 K)$. The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the $BaAl_2Se_4$ have been estimated to be 249.4 meV and 263.4 meV, respectively, by means of the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the ${\Delta}so$ definitely exists in the ${\Gamma}_5$ states of the valence band of the $BaAl_2Se_4/GaAs$ epilayer. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10 K are ascribed to the $A_1$-, $B_1$-exciton for n =1 and $C_{31}$-exciton peaks for n=31.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of different biochars on the removal of heavy metals from aqueous media. The experiment was carried out in aqueous solutions containing $200mg\;CdL^{-1}$ or $200mg\;PbL^{-1}$ using two different biochars derived from soybean stover and orange peel (20 mg Cd or $Pbg^{-1}$ biochar). After shaking for 24 hours, biochars were filtered out, and Cd and Pb in the filtrate were analyzed by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer (FAAS). In order to provide information regarding metal binding strength on biochars, sequential extraction was performed by modified SM&T (formerly BCR). The results showed that 70~100% of initially added Cd and Pb was adsorbed on biochars and removed from aqueous solution. The removal rate of Pb (95%, 100%) was higher than that of Cd (70%, 91%). In the case of Cd, orange peel derived biochar (91%) showed higher adsorption rate than soybean stover derived biochar (70%). Cd was adsorbed on the biochar mainly in exchangeable and carbonates fraction (1st phase). In contrast, Pb was adsorbed on it mainly in the form of Fe-Mn oxides and residual fraction (2nd and 4th phase). The existence of Cd and Pb as a form of surface-precipitated complex was also observed on the surfaces of biochars detected by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDAX).

The purpose of this study is to scientifically analyze physicochemical characteristics of the roof tiles used for palaces in the Joseon Dynasty which stored in Changdeokgung material storage and Seooreung Jaesil and the modern handmade ones which made by N company to understand the differences between their manufacturing techniques. Through chromaticity, cross-sectional observation, component analysis, and crystal structure analysis, it was possible to confirm the physicochemical properties and fired properties of the roof tile. Roof tiles from the Joseon Dynasty have a wider colorimetric range and higher apparent porosity and water absorption, on average, than the modern roof tiles. The cross section of the Joseon Dynasty roof tiles shows that most clay minerals have not been vitrified, remaining in the form of atypical particles, while the modern roof tiles have denser clay materials. X-ray diffraction analysis identified low-temperature minerals such as micas in Joseon roof tiles but no peak of these minerals was observed in the modern roof tiles, implying that the modern ones are fired at higher temperature than the Joseon ones. Therefore, the modern roof tiles are fired at higher temperature and have higher density than the Joseon ones due to the use of pugmills. The general content of main ingredients was similar between the two. Additionally, the principal component analysis of trace elements in the Joseon roof tiles showed that most samples were from similar areas. It seems that the Joseon roof tiles were manufactured using soils supplied from a specific region at the same timeframe and their consistency in the content of principal components implies that they also have similar mix proportions of clay.

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of zinc-bearing palygorskite (Zn-Pal) on rumen fermentation by in vitro gas-production system. Methods: In trial, 90 incubators were evenly divided into five groups: control (0% Zn-Pal), treatment I (0.2% Zn-Pal), treatment II (0.4% Zn-Pal), treatment III (0.6% Zn-Pal), and treatment IV (0.8% Zn-Pal). The contents of zinc for treatments were 0, 49, 98, 147, 196 mg/kg, respectively. The main chemical composition and microstructure of Zn-Pal was investigated by X-ray diffraction. The physicochemical features were evaluated by Zeta potential analysis, cation-exchange capacity, ethylene blue absorption and specific surface area (the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method). In vitro gas production (GP) was recorded at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72 h incubation. Incubation was stopped at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h and the inoculants were tested for pH, microbial protein yield (MCP), $NH_3-N$, volatile fatty acids (VFAs), lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Results: The results showed that the GP in the treatment groups was not significantly different from the control groups (p>0.05). Compared to the control group, pH was higher at 24 h, 48 h (p<0.05), and 72 h (p<0.01) (range 6 to 7). The concentration of $NH_3-N$ in the three treatment groups was higher than in the control group at 24 h (p<0.01), meanwhile, it was lower at 48 h and 72 h (p<0.01), except in the treatment IV. The concentration of MCP in treatment I group was higher than in the control at 48 h (p<0.01). Compared with control, the LPS concentration in treatment III became lower at 12 h (p<0.05). Total VFAs in treatments were higher than in the control at 24 h, 48 h (p<0.05). Conclusion: These results suggest that the addition of Zn-Pal can improve the rumen fermentation, especially when adding 0.2% Zn-Pal.

We investigated the origin of magnetic behaviors induced by an asymmetric spin exchange interaction in Fe-site engineered lead iron niobate [Pb(Fe_1/2Nb_1/2)O₃, PFN], which exhibits a room-temperature multiferroicity. The magnitude of spin exchange interaction was regulated by the introduced transition metals with a distinct Bohr magneton, i.e., Cr, Co, and Ni. All compositions were found to have a single-phase perovskite structure keeping their ferroelectric order except for Cr introduction. We discovered that the incorporation of each transition metal imposes a distinct magnetic behavior on the lead iron niobate system; antiferro-, hard ferro-, and soft ferromagnetism for Cr, Co, and Ni, respectively. This indicates that orbital occupancy and interatomic distance play key roles in the determination of magnetic behavior rather than the magnitude of the individual Bohr magneton. Further investigations are planned, such as X-ray absorption spectroscopy, to clarify the origin of magnetic properties in this system.

흑연질화탄소(g-C₃N₄)는 가시광선 조사 하에서 항생제 분해에 효과적인 광촉매로 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 정공-전자쌍의 빠른 재결합은 광분해 효율을 제한하였다. 본 연구에서는 Ag를 마이크로파 보조 분해 방법에 의해 g-C₃N₄/g-C₃N₄ iso-type 이종 접합 광촉매에 결합시켰다. X선 회절분석, UV-DRS, FT-IR, PL 분석을 통해 이종접합의 구조와 물성을 규명하였고, Ag 장식 g-C₃N₄/g-C₃N₄ 이종접합 광촉매는 g-C₃N₄/g-C₃N₄ iso-type 이종접합 및 벌크 g-C₃N₄ 보다 우수한 성능을 보여주었다. Ag 장식 이종 접합 광촉매는 210분 이내에 가시광선 조사 하에서 설파메톡사졸 분해를 하여 우수한 광촉매 활성을 나타냈다. g-C₃N₄에 Ag의 첨가는 가시광선 흡수 범위를 넓히고 표면 플라즈몬 공명으로 인해 정공-전자쌍의 재결합을 제한하여 광촉매 활성을 향상시키는 것을 알 수 있었다.
