In our study, the PTFE nozzle ablation in the high-voltage self-blast type $SF_6$ gas circuit breaker was investigated. The test circuit breaker has the structure that the pin electrode is moving and the pressure reservoir volume and the dimension is almost same as commercial 145kv 40kA circuit breaker for similar result in real circuit breaker. The variation of current and arcing time was the range of $36kA_{rms}$(symmetry) - $40kA_{rms}$(asymmetry) and 10-16 ms. From the measured data the tendecy of the mass loss of the nozzle to current load and arc energy was estimated. In this process, the distance from the arc to nozzle(PTFE) surface, area which was exposed to arc and stroke contour was considered. These results will be used to enhance the accuracy of the computational fluid dynamics analysis in circuit breaker and estimate the residual life time of a circuit breaker.

This paper presents the electrical properties of PTFE nozzle for a electrical apparatus. In the arcing environment in a electrical apparatus, radiation is considered to be the major energy transport mechanism from the arc to the wall. The fraction of the radiation power is emitted out of the arc and reaches the nozzle wall, causing ablation at the surface and in the depth of the wall. The energy concentration in the material leads to the depolymerization and eventually leads to the generation of decomposed gas as well as some isolated carbon particles. Adding some fillers into PTFE is expected to be efficient for improving the endurability against radiation. In this experiment, three kinds of fillers that have endurance in the high temperature environment were added into PTFE. Light reflectance of fillers was investigated. Dielectric constan and dissipation factor of PTFE composites were investigated. Dielectric constant and dissipation factor of the PTFE composites increased with increasing contents of the fillers.

본 연구에서는 scanning probe microscopy(SPM)을 이용하여 국소영역에서 silicon nanocrystal(Si NC)의 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. Si NCs은 압축된 silicon powder를 laser로 분해하는 laser ablation 방식으로 제조되었고, sharpening oxidation 과정을 통하여 Si NC 주변에 oxide shell을 형성시켰다. 이 과정에서 Si NCs은 $10{\sim}50 nm$의 크기와 약 $10^{11}/cm^2$의 밀도로 $SiO_2$층에 증착되었다. SPM의 conducting tip을 통하여 전하는 각각의 Si NC로 주입되게 되고, 이로 인하여 발생하는 SCM image와 dC/dV curve의 변화를 통하여 Si NC에서 전하 거동을 모니터 하였다. 또한 국소영역에서 Si NC의 전기적 특성을 MOS capacitor 구조에서의 C-V 특성과 비교 분석하였다.

Ni ink for electrohydrodynamic (EHD) continuous jet printing has been developed by using Ni nanoparticles mixed with conhesiveness provider. EHD continuous jet printing was used in order to realize $20{\mu}m$ pattern width. Ink stability was investigated by using Turbi-scan which monitors agglomeration and precipitation of nanoparticles in the ink for three days. The Turbi-scan results showed that the formulated Ni ink had been stable for 3 days without any indication of precipitation across the entire ink. Antireflection coating (ARC) layer in crystalline solar cell wafers was removed by laser ablation technique leading to the formation of 84 grooves where the Ni ink was printed by EHD continuous jet printing. The printability and microstructure of EHD-jet-printed Ni lines were investigated by using optical and electron microscopes. 84 Ni lines with the width less than $20{\mu}m$ were successfully printed by one-time printing without any misalignment and fill the laser-ablated ARC grooves.

${\gamma}$ -Tubulin is an essential component involved in microtubule nucleation. The present work examined whether the fast proliferation of cancer cells can be retarded by the depletion of ${\gamma}$ -tubulin expression. Two different gastric cancer cell lines and one control cell line were treated with antisence oligonucleotides complementary to the messenger RNA of ${\gamma}$ -tubulin. The$[^3H]$ -thymidine incorporation in the two gastric cancer cell lines, SNU-1 and SNU-216, was dramatically reducd by treatment with the ${\gamma}$ -tubulin antisense oligonucleotides in a dosage-dependent manner. In contrast, the control cell line, NIH/3T3, showed no significant effect from the antisense oligonucleotides even at a high concentration. The ablation of ${\gamma}$ -tubulin expression in the tumor cells resulted in an altered DNA synthesis during mitosis and it decreased the cell progression. Accordingly, the use of antisense oligonucleotides may be an effective way of inhibiting the proliferation of human gastric cancers.

Deposition of PZT with UV laser ablatio was applied for realization of thin film sensors and actuators. Deposition rate of more than 20nm/min was attained by pulsed KrF excimer laser deposition, which is fairly better than those obtained by the other methods. Perovskite phase was obtained at room temperature deposition with Fast Atom Beam(FAB) treatment and annealing. Smart MEMS(Micro electro-mechanical system) is now a suject of interest in the field of micro optical devices, micro pumps, AFM cantilever devices etc. It can be fabricated by deposition of PZT thin films and micromachining. PZT films of more than 1 micron thickness is difficult to obtain by conventional methods. This is the reason why we applied excimer laser ablation for thin film deposition. The remanent polarization Pr of 700nm PZT thin film was measured, and the relative dielectric constant was determined to about 900 and the dielectric loss tangent was also measured to be about 0.04. XRD analysis shows that, after annealing at 650 degrees C in 1 hour, the perovskite structure would be formed with some amount of pyrochlore phase, as is the case of the annealing at 750 degrees C in 1 hour.

Aluminium oxide (Al2O3) films have been investigated for many applications such as insulating materials, hard coatings, and diffusion barriers due to their attractive electrical and mechanical properties. In recent years, application of Al2O3 films for dielectric materials in integrated circuits as gates and capacitors has attracted much attention. Various deposition techniques such as sol-gel, metalorganic decomposition (MOD), sputtering, evaporation, metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and pulsed laser ablation have been used to fabricate Al2O3 thin films. Among these techniques, reactive sputtering has been widely used due to its high deposition rate and easy control of film composition. It has been also reported that the sputtered Al2O3 films exhibit superior chemical stability and mechanical strength compared to the films fabricated by other processes. In this study, Al2O3 thin films were deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO/Si2 and Si substrates by DC reactive sputtering at room temperature with variation of the Ar/O2 ratio in sputtering ambient. Crystalline phase of the reactively sputtered films was characterized using X-ray diffractometry and the surface morphology of the films was observed with Scanning election microscopy. Effects of Th Ar/O2 ratio characteristics of Al2O3 films were investigated with emphasis on the thickness dependence of the dielectric properties. Correlation between the dielectric properties and the microstructure was also studied

LGP is a key component of LCD back light unit because it determines the brightness and sharpness of display image. Usually, it has optical patterns fabricated on the bottom surface. In the present paper the LiGA-reflow method was applied to fabricate the LGP mold. Furthermore, the optical simulation considering the replication ratio of pattern height was applied to the pattern design. The optical simulation through systematic correction scheme helped find the optimum distribution of pattern density. Finally, the stamper fabricated by this method was installed in the mold and LGP was produced by injection molding. As a result of luminance measurement for the final product, the average luminance and luminance uniformity was measured 3,180 nit and 84%, respectively. Consequently, the mold fabrication method using the LiGA-reflow and optical simulation(CAE) can save the expense and time compared with the existing fabrication methods(laser ablation and chemical etching).

Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) is rare in dogs. Mainly functional solitary parathyroid adenoma causes hypercalcemia due to excessive autonomous secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH). PHP can be diagnosed based on serum calcium phosphorus, ionized calcium and PTH, and cervical ultrasound provides important information about the number size and location of parathyroidal lesion. Ultrasound guided intralesional ethanol injection has been used as an alternative to surgical treatment of PHP. In this case, PHP was diagnosed in 12 year-old Pug with clinicopathologic examination and cervical ultrasound, and the parathyroidal mass was ablated successfully through ultrasound guided ethanol injection.

The burr of micro drilling and micro cutting on thin metal film is a major obstacle to mass production for micro PCB boards in micro technologies of personal computing and telecom explosion. As the burr affects on the assembling process, it is necessary to study continuously on control or elimination of the burr. In order to get higher valued products, it is also needed to competitive techniques with the high resolution. In this paper, we studied experimentally the burr generation that when it is processed on the copper foil by laser in micro-hole machining. Unlike mechanical machining the burr produced on substrate is a resultants of melt and re-solidification of a melten metal which was heated and treated by laser. And higher laser energy increases the size of burr. Therefor in micro-drilling with laser, it is difficult to reduce the effects of burr for very thin metal sheets. We investigated the stale of the burr and analyzed the laser ablation Cu micro machining with respect to laser intensity and processing time.
