  • A time-of-flight and energy (TOF-E) detection system for the measurement of 236U accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) has been developed to improve the 236U/238U sensitivity at Micro Analysis Laboratory, Tandem accelerator (MALT), The University of Tokyo. With observing TOF distribution of 235U, 236U and 238U, this TOF-E detection system has clearly separated 236U from the interference of 235U and 238U when measuring three kinds of uranium standards. In addition, we have developed a novel method combining kernel-based density estimation method and multi-Gaussian fitting method to estimate the 236U/238U sensitivity of the TOF-E detection system. Using this new estimation method, 3.4 × 10-12 of 236U/238U sensitivity and 1.9 ns of time resolution are obtained. 236U/238U sensitivity of TOF-E detection system has improved two orders of magnitude better than that of previous gas ionization chamber. Moreover, unknown species other than uranium isotopes were also observed in the measurement of a surface soil sample, which has demonstrated that TOF-E detection system has a higher sensitivity in particle identification. With its high sensibility in mass determination, this TOF-E detection system could also be used in other heavy isotope AMS.

  • In this paper, we present design and prototyping of a low-cost, integrated multi-functional micro health sensor chip that can be used or embedded in widely consumer devices, such as cell phone and PDA, for monitoring environmental condition including air pressure, temperature and humidity. This research's scope includes basic individual sensor study, architecture for integrating sensors on a chip, fabrication process compatibility and test/evaluation of prototype sensors. The results show that the integrated TPH sensor has good characteristics of ${\pm}\;1\%FS$ of linearity and hysteresis for pressure sensor and temperature sensor and of ${\pm}\;5\%FS$ of linearity and hysteresis But if we use 3rd order approximation for humidity sensor, full scale error becomes much smaller and this will be one of our future study.

  • 최근 딸기 생산이 확대 되면서, 고품질 다수확이 가능한 딸기 우량묘에 대한 수요가 빠르게 늘고 있으며, 딸기 육묘에 관한 관심이 더욱 늘고 있다. 그러나, 육묘시 작물에 따른 포트 혹은 트레이 선정에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 또한, 마이크로버블의 세정 능력은 이미 산업현장에서 널리 알려져 있으나 이를 이용한 시스템 개발은 농업분야에서는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서, 딸기 육묘에 적합한 마이크로버블 시스템을 설계하여 실증 개발함으로써 딸기 육묘 농가의 자립능력을 제고하고, 딸기 육묘 생산시스템의 확대 하여 농가소득 증대에 기여하고자 한다. 실험방법은 생육에 적합한 육묘용 트레이를 선정하고, 마이크로 버블 시스템을 적용한 육묘와 기존 방법에 의한 육묘의 비교 실험하였다. 포트의 용량에 따른 뿌린 근부의 성장변화를 관찰하고, SEM 촬영을 통하여 딸기 뿌리근부의 조직의 치밀성을 확인하였다. 기존 저면관수의 경우 딸기탄저병 확산을 억제하지만, 반입에 의한 감염주의 발병을 억제하는 것은 아니다. 따라서 포트 및 트레이를 청결하게 관리할 필요가 있으며 이를 해결하기 위해 미세기포(micro-bubble)를 사용한 클리닝이 상당한 효과가 있는 것으로 확인하였다. 또한 조직의 치밀도을 측정하기 위해 딸기 육묘 조직을 SEM 촬영하여 분석하였으며, 미세기포를 이용한 딸기 육묘 방법이 기존의 딸기 육묘 방법에 비하여 조직이 치밀한 것으로 확인 되었다. 또한 배지량 및 육묘 트레이가 딸기 육묘의 성장에 영향을 미치며 제1액아가 1개밖에 발생하지 않는 포기가 많아지고 '눈 없는 포기'의 발생 현상들이 발생하고 있어 적정 육묘 트레이의 선택 및 배지량 조절하는 비교 실험을 통하여 해결하였다. 본 연구의 결과 개선된 육묘트레이를 사용함으로써 제1액아의 형성이 촉진되어 정과방 후의 제1액과 방의 수확량이 증대한다는 것에 의해서 1월 혹은 2월부터의 수량이 증대되어 소득향상이 기대되며, 마이크로버블을 저면관수에 적용함으로써 트레이의 청결을 유지하여 병해를 예방하고 딸기모종의 조직을 치밀하게 함으로써 딸기의 우량육묘를 얻는데 기여 할 것으로 기대된다.

  • A flat type micro gas sensor was fabricated on the p-type silicon wafer with low stress Si$_3$N$_4$, whose thickness is 2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, using MEMS technology. WO$_3$ thin film as a sensing material for detection of NO$_2$ gas was deposited using a tungsten target by sputtering method, followed by thermal oxidation at several temperatures (40$0^{\circ}C$-$600^{\circ}C$) for one hour. NO$_2$ sensitivities were investigated for the WO$_3$ thin films with different annealing temperatures. The highest sensitivity was obtained for the samples annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ when it was operated at 20$0^{\circ}C$. The results of XRD analysis showed the annealed samples had polycrystalline phase mixed with triclinic and orthorhombic structures. The sample exhibits higher sensitivity when the system has less triclinic structure. The sensitivities, $R_{gas}/R_{air},$ operating at 20$0^{\circ}C$ to 5 ppm NO$_2$ of the sample annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ were approximately 90.

  • The main purpose of the study was to clarify the properties of individual particles collected at each behavior space of a factory worker. The samplings of size-segregated ($PM_{2.1-1.1}$ and $PM_{4.7-3.3}$) indoor particles were conducted at three different behavior spaces of a factory worker who is engaged in an auto parts manufacturing plant (i.e., his home, his work place in factory, and his favorite restaurant). Elemental specification (i.e., relative elemental content and distribution in and/or on individual particles) was performed by a micro-PIXE system. Every element detected from the coarse particulate matters of home was classified into three groups, i.e., a group of high net-counts (Na, Al, and Si), a group of intermediate net-counts (Mg, S, Cl, K, and Ca), and a group of minor trace elements (P, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Pb). The results of EF for $PM_{4.7-3.3}$ in home indicated that several heavy metals were generated from the sources within the house itself. An exceptional feature shown in the individual particles in workplace is that Cr, Mn, and Co were clearly detected in both fine and coarse particles. Cluster analysis suggested that the individual coarse particles ($PM_{4.7-3.3}$) collected at the indoor of factory were chemically heterogeneous and they modified with sea-salt, mineral, and artificially derived elements. The principal components in individual coarse particles collected at restaurant were sea-salt and mineral without mixing with harmful trace elements like chromium and manganese. Compared to the indoor fine particles of home and restaurant, many elements, especially, Cl, Na, Cr, Mn, Pb, and Zn showed overwhelmingly high net-counts in those of factory.

  • The demand fer small and high-capacity optical data storage devices has rapidly increased. The areal density of optical disk is increased by using higher numerical aperture objective lens and shorter wavelength source. A wafer-scale stacked micro objective lens with a numerical aperture of 0.85 and a focal length of 0.467mm for the 405nm blue- violet laser was designed and fabricated. A diffractive optical element (DOE) was used to compensate the spherical aberration of the objective lens. Among the various fabrication methods for micro DOE, the UV-replication process is more suitable fur mass-production. In this study, an 8-stepped DOE pattern as a master was fabricated by photolithography and reactive ion etching process. A flexible mold was fabricated for improving the releasing properties and shape accuracy in UV-replication process. In the replication process, the effects of exposing time and applied pressure on the replication quality were analyzed. Finally, the surface profiles of master, mold and molded pattern were measured by optical scanning profiler. The geometrical deviation between the master and the molded DOE was less than $0.1{\mu}m$. The diffraction efficiency of the molded DOE was measured by DOE efficiency measurement system which consists of laser source, sample holder, aperture and optical power meter, and the measured value was $84.5\%$.

  • The grout based on solution type makes it difficult to get the improvement of ground strength and the effefct of water curtain because it has lower strength and durability than suspension type. Nowadays, the technology of particle acceleration, that enhance the material permeability, such as grout based on solution type, and inexpensive grout, is being required. For these reasons, in this study, using wet milling system, we evaluated physical properties of manufactured factors such as water-cement ratio of particles before being milled, optimum milling capacity by controlling milling time and rpm, viscosity of materials, permeation coefficient, and unconfined compressive strength. Also, using micro wet milling apparatus which could manufacture ordinary Portland cement and high speed shear mix which could forcefully separate conglomerate particles in situ, we performed electrical resistivity investigation and falling head permeability tests to analyze differences of grouting effects. From these results, we found that the permeability of the applied equipment was much superior, and in the case of using high speed shear mixer, particles of grout material were well separated.

  • As one of the core technologies in the field of the optical communication with WDM, the optical cross connector with movements of micro mirrors is getting important day by day. The packaging structure of 2-dimensional NxN MOEMS switch should be determined by the harmonization of the following items such as the geometrical compatability between optical and structural components, the characteristics of optical input and output parts with device, and the electrical performance for the operation of micro mirrors. Therefore, the packaging process could be defined as the integrated technology completed by the optical and electrical science and the material science for the understanding of its thermo-mechanical properties with packaging materials. In the present study, the harmonization between the optical and structural components as well as the optical characteristics of lens system used will be investigated.

  • A lot of studies are undergoing on the magneto-optical (MO) properties of patterned magnetic systems for the reason that they have potential application to information technology such as ultrahigh-speed computing. Moreover, they can be considered as the future candidates for high-density MO storage devices. Not only the technical aspects, but there have been also tremendous interests in studying their properties related to the fundamental physics. The MO Kerr-rotation effects (both in reflected and the diffracted modes) and the magnetic force microscopy (MFM) are very useful techniques to investigate the micromagnetic properties of such periodic structures. Hence, in this study, we report on the MO properties of bilayered Cobalt (Co)/ nickel (Ni) micro-patterned anti-dot arrays. Such a ferromagnetic structure was made by sequentially depositing co (40 nm)/Ni (5 nm) bilayer on a Si substrate. The anti-dot patterning with hole diameter of $1{\mu}m$ was done only on the upper Co layer using photolithography technique, while the Ni underlayer was kept uniform. The longitudinal Kerr rotation (LKR) of the zeroth- and the first-order diffracted beams were measured at an incidence of $30^{\circ}$ by using a photoelastic modulator method. The external magnetic field was applied perpendicularly to the reflected and the diffracted beams using an electromagnet capable of a maximum field of ${\pm}5$ kOe. Significantly, it was observed that the LKR of the first-order diffracted beam is nearly 4 times larger than that of the zeroth-order beam. The simulated results for the hysteresis loops matched qualitatively well with the experimentally obtained ones. In conjunction with the LKR, we also investigated the magnetic-domain structure by using a MFM system, which were analyzed to elucidate the origin of the enhanced MO rotation.
