Ion shower doping with a main ion source of $P_2H_x$ using a source gas mixture of $PH_3/H_2$ was conducted on excimer-laser-annealed (ELA) poly-Si.The crystallinity of the as-implanted samples was measured using a UV-transmittance. The measured value using UV-transmittance was found to correlate well with the one measured using Raman Spectroscopy. The sheet resistance decreases as the acceleration voltage increases from 1kV to 15kV at the moderate doping conditions. It, however, increases as the acceleration voltage increases under the severe doping conditions. The reduction in carrier concentration due to electron trapping at uncured damage after activation annealing seems to be responsible for the rise in sheet resistance. Three different annealing methods were investigated in terms of dopant-activation and damage-recovery, such as furnace annealing, excimer laser annealing, and rapid thermal annealing, respectively.

소수성을 띄는 표면은 자연으로부터 시작된 연구이다. 연잎, 소금쟁이 다리, 매미 날개 등 많은 자연의 표면은 150o보다 높은 접촉각을 지니기 때문에 물에 대한 반발이 심해져 약간의 기울임에도 쉽게 물방울이 굴러 떨어지고 이때 먼지를 제거할 수 있다. 자연현상을 이용해 물질 표면의 소수성 제어에 대한 다양한 연구가 진행 중이다. 친수성과 소수성은 일반적으로 표면에서 물방울의 contact angle 측정으로 확인 할 수 있다. Contact angle이 $90^{\circ}$ 작을 경우 친수성, $90^{\circ}$보다 클 경우 소수성이라고 한다. 이러한 기술을 이용해서 solar cell, 자동차 유리, 건물외벽, 등 다양한 분야에서 사용하고 있으며, 소수성 구조를 만드는 방법으로는 laser ablation, wet etching, 리소그라피 공정이 있는데, laser ablation의 경우 가격이 비싸다는 단점을 가지고 있으며, 반면 가격이 저렴한 wet etching의 경우 제어가 힘들다는 단점을 지니고 있다. 리소그라피 공정은 비싼 비용과 시간을 소비해야 하는 단점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점들을 개선하기 위해 공정 시간의 감소와, 저 비용으로 제작이 가능한 RIE (Recative Ion Etching)로 피라미드 구조를 만들었다. 형성된 구조물에 투명하고 균일하며, 낮은 계면에너지를 갖고 있는 PDMS (polydimethelsiloxine)로 mold을 수행하였다. RIE를 이용한 표면 구조는 Gas, Flow rate, Pressure, Power, Time 등을 조절하여 단결정 실리콘 기판 위에 피라미드의 크기를 조절하였다. 피라미드의 크기가 커짐에 따라 물과 PDMS가 닿는 면적이 줄어들면서 높은 소수성을 가지게 되는데, 높은 소수성 구조를 가지는 피라미드 형상을 찾기 위한 실험을 진행하였다. RIE 조건은 Flow rate: 30 sccm, Temperature: $10^{\circ}C$ Pressure: 100 mTorr, Power: 200 W, Process Time: 5~50 min으로 조절하며 공정을 수행하였고 RIE공정 후 SAMs (Self-Assembly Monolayers)을 진행하였으며, 마지막으로 PDMS를 이용하여 mold공정을 진행하였다. 그리고 SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope)장비를 이용하여 Etching된 단면을 관찰하였으며, 접촉각을 측정하였다. Process Time을 50 min로 공정하였을 때, 측정된 접촉각은 $134^{\circ}$였다.

Phosphate glass samples with various $Cr_2O_3$ and $Er_2O_3$ contents based upon $55P_2O_5\cdot24BaO\cdot10K_2O\cdot4Al_2O_3\cdot6Yb_2O_3$ were prepared. The prepared glass compositions are dehydrated using gas bubble flow method in open system and investigated the effects of the eliminating of OH groups from the glass melts with bubbling time. It was found that the probability of $Er^{+3}$ fluorescence quenching by OH groups oscillations linear depends upon the OH groups absorption coefficients in the maximum of the stretch vibrations band at $3500cm^{-1}$ while $Er^{+3}$ concentration range is between $1.6\times10^{19}$ and $21.2\times10^{19}$ ion/$cm^3$.

An optical method to measure the size and number density of soot aggregates in diesel exhaust has been proposed in this study. Two laser beams in co-axial alignment transmit a soot loaded exhaust gas flow, and the transmittance at each wavelength is detected by a photo diode simultaneously. The volume equivalent diameter and number density of soot aggregates in the optical path can be theoretically given by the transmittance values measured at two wavelengths. A test conducted by a single cylinder, 4 cycle, small and DI diesel engine shows that the temporal variations of the size and number density of soot aggregates in the diesel exhaust can be measured by the proposed method at a transient mode operation. It is found that the volume equivalent diameter varied temporally from 70 to 110 nm during the period that high soot concentration is observed. One can also conclude that the optical length longer than 1 m in the dynamic range regarding this method is preferable for measuring soot concentration at the level of $1\;mg/m^3$.

Background: Lidocaine spray is a local anesthetic that improves random-pattern skin flap survival. The fractional ablative carbon dioxide laser (FxCL) produces vertical microchannels that delivers topically applied drugs to the skin. In this study, we hypothesized that FxCL therapy would enhance the lidocaine effect to improve random-pattern skin flap survival in rats. Methods: McFarlane random-pattern skin flaps were elevated in 48 rats, which were divided into four groups according to treatment: FxCL+lidocaine, FxCL, lidocaine, and nontreatment (control). On postoperative day 7, necrotic flap areas, the number of capillary vessels, and neutrophil count were evaluated. Anti-rat vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and CD31 antibody activity were also evaluated by immunohistochemical staining. Results: Flap survival rate was $53.41%{\pm}5.43%$, $58.16%{\pm}4.80%$, $57.08%{\pm}5.91%$, and $69.08%{\pm}3.20%$ in the control, lidocaine, FxCL, and FxCL+lidocaine groups, respectively. Mean neutrophil count in the intermediate zone excluding the necrotic tissue was $41.70{\pm}8.40$, $35.43{\pm}6.41$, $37.23{\pm}7.15$, and $27.20{\pm}4.24cells/field$ in the control, lidocaine, FxCL, and FxCL+lidocaine groups, respectively. Anti-rat VEGF and CD31 antibody activity were the highest in the FxCL+lidocaine group. Conclusion: FxCL with lidocaine had a positive effect on random-pattern skin flap survival in rats. Thus, FxCL with lidocaine spray should be considered as a new treatment option to improve flap viability.

In this paper, a sensor material with Fe/Zr multilayer thin film, in which the change in the magnetization and strain with hydrogenation is maximized, were developed. Compositionally modulated (CM) Fe/Zr multilayers with a $Fe_{80}Zr_{20}$ composition and modulation wavelengths ($\lambda$) $3~50{\AA}$ were deposited by sequentially sputtering (RF diode) elemental Fe and Zr targets. The films were electrolytically hydrogenated to select the optimum Fe/Zr multilayers that show the maximum increases in the magnetization and strain with hydrogenation. The changes in the magnetic properties of the thin films after hydrogenation, were measured using a hysteresis graph and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and the strains induced in the films by hydrogenation were also measured using a laser heterodyne interferometer (LHI). The optimum sensor material selected was incorporated in a fiber-optic hydrogen sensor (that can sense indirectly amount of hydrogen injected) by depositing it directly on the sensing arm of a single-mode fiber Michelson interferometer. The developed sensor holds significant promise for non-destructive test evaluation (NDE) applications because it is expected to be useful for detecting easily and accurately the subsurface corrosion in structural systems.

In the national greenhouse gas inventory, a settlements category has never been included owing to the lack of activity data. Therefore, this study was conducted to obtain basic data for estimating biomass carbon storage in settlements. Nondestructive stem analysis with a laser dendrometer was performed on four major street tree species (Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Prunus armeniaca, Ginkgo biloba, and Acer buergerianum) in Wonju city, South Korea. Allometric equations of the aboveground volume were developed using five models, and allometric equations of crown area were developed with diameter at breast height (DBH) as an independent variable. The best performing allometric equations were aD²+bD+c for M.glyptostroboides and G. biloba, aD+bD² for P. armeniaca, and a+bD² for A. buergerianum. Regarding the allometric equations of crown area with DBH as an independent variable, G. biloba and A. buergerianum exhibited low coefficients of determination (R²), i.e., < 0.364, whereas M. glyptostroboides and P. armeniaca exhibited satisfactory R² values, i.e., > 0.767, probably due to different street tree management practices. The allometricequations in this study will support the carbon inventory of settlements and urban tree monitoring in management practices.

Fe-TiC composite powder was fabricated via two steps. The first step was a high-energy milling of FeO and carbon powders followed by heat treatment for reduction to obtain a (Fe+C) powder mixture. The optimal condition for high-energy milling was 500 rpm for 1h, which had been determined by a series of preliminary experiment. Reduction heat-treatment was carried out at $900^{\circ}C$ for 1h in flowing argon gas atmosphere. Reduced powder mixture was investigated by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) and Laser Particle Size Analyser (LPSA). The second step was a high-energy milling of (Fe+C) powder mixture and additional $TiH_2$ powder, and subsequent in-situ synthesis of TiC particulate in Fe matrix through a reaction of carbon and Ti. High-energy milling was carried out at 500 rpm for 1 h. Heat treatment for reaction synthesis was carried out at $1000{\sim}1200^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in flowing argon gas atmosphere. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results of the fabricated Fe-TiC composite powder showed that only TiC and Fe phases exist. Results from FE-SEM observation and Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectros-copy (EDS) revealed that TiC phase exists uniformly dispersed in the Fe matrix in a form of particulate with a size of submicron.
