For the precise measurements of special nuclear materials (SNM) including Pu and Am isotopes, we have used phoswich detector combination of two single crystal scintillators of Gd₃Ga₃Al₂O₁₂:Ce and CsI:Tl. High detection efficiency and sensitivity along with high figure of merit for the discrimination of these phoswich detectors ensures the detection and discrimination of thermal neutrons and gammas from spontaneous fission of Pu and other isotopes in presence of high gamma background. Using this detector, the low energy gammas, which is stopped completely in 1mm thick disc of GGAG, can be also discriminated from high energies gamma and shows linearity in wide range of sample quantities. By changing only the appropriate shielding, the similar setup was used for thermal neutron detection and shows a very good linearity over wide range. The quantity of a test sample was also calculated accurately by using the measured calibrated plot.

Although the dissolution test can serve as an effective tool for quality control and predictor of in vivo performance, there are a number of drugs with no established dissolution specification in Korean Pharmaceutical Codex (KPC). So, with each reference and test drugs, the dissolution test method and an analytical procedure by HPLC were developed and validated to establish dissolution specification for acebrophylline capsules and bromhexine hydrochloride tablets. The dissolution condition was determined based on the "Guidelines on Specifications of Dissolution tests for Oral dosage forms" of Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS). The analytical method of HPLC was validated in specificity, linearity, precision and accuracy. Final dissolution test was performed with commercially available samples of 3 lots to establish specification. In addition, no difference was observed by the inter-laboratory evaluation. Dissolution specifications and conditions will be used for revising the monograph of acebrophylline capsules and bromhexine hydrochloride tablets in next supplement of KPC.

본 논문은 Cartesian 피드백 방법을 이용하여 전력 증폭기의 선형성을 개선한 860 MHz 대역의 송신기의 설계에 관한 것이다. 피드백 루프를 통하여 발생하는 이득 및 위상의 불일치와 DC offset에 의한 영향을 제거하기 위하여 ADS simulation을 이용하여 특성 변화를 예측하였다. 제작된 Cartesian 피드백 송신기는 출력 전력 43 dBm에서 -54 dBc의 IMD3 특성을 나타내었으며, 이는 선형화 전과 비교하여 22.4 dB의 선형성 개선 효과가 있음을 의미한다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제작한 Cartesian 피드백 송신기를 이용하여 협-대역 전송시스템에 적용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

현재 본원은 TFB사의 CA19-9 항체가 bead에 코팅되어있는 CA19-9 IRMA 시약을 사용하고있다. 이번에 TFB사에서 새로 개발된 CA19-9 항체가 polystyrene test tube에 코팅된 CA 19-9 IRMA 시약이 기존 TFB사의 bead를 사용하는 시약을 대체하여 사용할 수 있는지 시약의 성능을 평가하였다. 본원과 서울대학교병원 환자 56명의 검체를 대상으로 하여 TFB사의 기존 bead 방법을 사용한 시약과 새로 개발된 coated tube를 사용한 시약을 비교하여 상관계수와 회귀식을 구하고 coated tube를 사용한 시약의 정밀도, 회수율, 직선성, 민감도, Hook effect 를 확인하였다. 저, 중, 고역가 검체의 검사내 정밀도는 4.1%, 4.0%, 4.2%이고 검사간 정밀도는 7.6%, 4.3%, 7.8%이며 회수율은 모두 $100{\pm}10%$이다. 직선성은 우수하였고 분석적민감도는 0.3U/mL이었으며 9,020,000 U/mL 농도에서는 Hook effect가 나타나지 않았다. 또한 TFB사의 기존 bead를 사용한 방법과 비교하여 상관관계를 분석한 결과, y=0.9185x-0.953, 상관계수 $R^2$=0.9779이었다. 이번 연구를 통해 본원은 TFB사에서 새로 개발된 coated tube CA19-9 IRMA 시약이 검사 시간과 검사 과정에서 간편화되고 검사시 자동화기기를 사용할 수 있으며 기존 bead를 사용한 시약에 대체하여 사용할 수 있다고 판단하였다.

Recently, traffic accidents and damage on the highway have increased because of overloaded vehicles. The existing overload-detecting system has a low accuracy rate. An overload-detecting system using a weigh-in-motion (WIM) system has been developed to solve this problem. The WIM system can be used to detect overloaded vehicles by measuring the weight of the vehicles. The WIM system is divided into high-speed and low-speed types. The inaccuracy rate in the low-speed WIM system results mainly from the low response rate of the sensor when the velocity is moving at more than 20 km/h. In this study, a low-speed overload-detecting pad with a hydraulic structure using a WIM system was developed to make the system more accurate. The structural and formal analysis was carried out by using a finite element method (FEM) in order to analyze the structural stability and the extrusion velocity of the system. In addition, a static load test was performed to confirm the linearity and accuracy of the pad.

Coriolis mass flowmeter(CMF), which can measure the mass flow directly, is getting rapid attention for the industrial and custody transfer purpose. In order to study the characteristics and the applicability of CMF, it is tested with the national flow standard system. Two types of sensing tube, U-type and straight type, are employed in the test. Water, spindle oil and viscosity Standard Reference Material whose viscosities are 1, 20 and, 67 $\textrm{mm}^2$/s, respectively, are studied. It is shown that the linearity of CMF is getting deteriorated as the fluid viscosity increases, which is due to the zero drift and the relaxation time of the fluid. To test its applicability in the case of high pressured gas, it is calibrated using compressed air, It shows 1∼l.6 % deviations compared to the calibration results using water. It concludes that the fluid velocity in CMF should be lower than the sonic velocity. In addition, the effects of the vibration from the pipeline and pump on CMF as well as the long term stability are studied.

Si PIN diodes are subject to be damaged from the exposure of fast neutron by displacement of Si lattice structure. The defects are effective recombination centers for carriers which migrate through the base region of the PIN diode when forward voltage is applied. It causes an increase in current and a decrease in resistivity of the diode. This paper presents the development of a neutron sensor based on displacement damage effect. PIN diodes having various structures were made by micro-fabrication process, and neutron beam test was performed to identify neutron damage effect to the diode. From a result of the test, it was shown that the forward voltage drop of the diode, at a constant current, has good linearity for neutron dosage. Also it was found that the newton dosage can be measured by the pin diode neutron dosimeter with constant current power.

The SRI(Super Resolution Imager) with 800mm aperture primary mirror is the ground development model of the high resolution satellite camera. The SRI focal plane electronics including detector array generates the data for high-resolution images by converting incoming light into digital stream of pixel data. Since the focal plane including a detector is the basic building block of the camera system, the main system performances is directly determined by its performance. This paper measures the SRI focal plane electronics’ performance such as the dark signal, the dark signal noise, the linearity, the PRNU(Photo Response Non-Uniformity), the SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) and the sensor saturation capability. In addition, this paper verifies the various functionalities of the SRI focal plane electronics. The electrical test equipment with the specialized software and the optical test equipments such as the integrating sphere, the rotation stage and the target are implemented and used to verify these functionalities and performances.

This paper describes on anodic bonding characteristics of MLCA(Multi Layer Ceramic Actuator) to Si-wafer using evaporated Pyrex #7740 glass thin-films for MEMS applications. Pyrex #7740 glass thin-films with same properties were deposited on MLCA under optimum RF magneto conditions(Ar 100 %, input power $1\;/cm^2$). After annealing in $450^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, the anodic bonding of MLCA to Si-wafer was successfully performed at 600 V, $400^{\circ}C$ in - 760 mmHg. Then, the MLCA/Si bonded interface and fabricated Si diaphragm deflection characteristics were analyzed through the actuation test. It is possible to control with accurate deflection of Si diaphragm according to its geometries and its maximum non-linearity is 0.05-008 %FS. Moreover, any damages or separation of MICA/Si bonded interfaces do not occur during actuation test. Therefore, it is expected that anodic bonding technology of MICA/Si wafers could be usefully applied for the fabrication process of high-performance piezoelectric MEMS devices.
