A transflective liquid crystal displays associated with fringe field switching (FFS) mode of new concept is proposed. The device utilizes unique characteristic of the FFS mode in which the rotation angle of LC director is strongly dependent on electrode position in on state. We use the liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy. Also we are look for optimized electrode size and the optimization of pixel electrode width and distance between them, the LC director could rotate about $22.5^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ depending on electrode positions. Consequently, we get high transmittance and high reflection on the optimized electrode condition. Respectively, a high image quality transflective display with single gap and single gamma characteristics realized.

상온에서 ${\gamma}$-선 조사에 의해 생긴 황산암모늄$((NH_4)_2SO_4)$단결정 내의 방사선 손상은 몇개의 상자성 중심을 형성한다. X-band 전자스핀 공명분석기(EPR spectrometer)로 전자스핀공명 스펙트럼을 얻었고 피크의 세기가 가장 큰 g = 2.0036인 Gauss 형의 등방성 피크는 $SO_3^-$가 피크임을 알았다. 직교하는 세축 a,b,c로 그 단결정을 회전시키면서 ESR 스펙트럼을 얻어 각도 의존성을 보았다. $g^-$값은 등방성 피크와 무등방성 피크의 상대적 위치로 부터 구하였고 각 상자성종들의 $g^-$값의 3${\times}$3 matrix 원소들을 대각화하여 특성 주 $g^-$값과 방향여현을 얻었다. 이 특성 주 $g^-$값과 방향여현으로 분석한 결과 황산암모늄 단결정내에는 무등방성 피크에 해당하는 $SO_4^-,\;SO_2^-$ 및 전자 과잉중심들의 상자성 결함이 존재함을 확인 하였다.

본 논문에서는 Ge가 함유된 일반 단일모드 광섬유의 감마선 유입손실을 측정하였다. 방사선 선원은 $Co^{60}$ 감마선 선원을 이용하였으며, 총 4시간동안 0.5 kGy/hr, 2 kGy/hr, 8 kGy/hr의 선량률로 조사하였다. 그 결과 감마선 조사에 의한 단일모드 광섬유의 전송손실이 뚜렷하게 나타났으며, 동일 누적선량에서 선량률이 클수록 전송손실이 증가하는 선량률 효과가 나타났다. 또한 감마선 조사 종료 후 광섬유의 전송손실이 클수록 유입손실의 회복률이 증가하는 어닐링 특성을 보였다. 본 실험결과는 향후 광섬유의 내방사화 연구의 기초자료로 활용할 것이다.

This study examined the association of cytokine gene polymorph isms with intrahepatic bile duct wall fibrosis in human clonorchiasis. A total of 240 residents in Heilongjiang, China underwent ultrasonography, blood sampling, and stool examination. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites for $IFN-{\gamma}$ (+874 T/A), IL-10 (-1,082 G/A, -819 C/T, -592 C/A), $TNF-{\alpha}$ (-308 G/A), and $TGF-{\beta}1$ (codon 10 T/C, codon 25 G/C) genes were observed with the TaqMan allelic discrimination assay. No significant correlation was observed between individual cytokine gene polymorphisms and intrahepatic duct dilatation (IHDD). Among individuals with clonorchiasis of moderate intensity, the incidence of IHDD was high in those with $IFN-{\gamma}$ intermediate-producing genotype, +874AT (80.0%, P=0.177), and in those with $TNF-{\alpha}$ low-producing genotype, -308GG (63.0%, P=0.148). According to the combination of $IFN-{\gamma}$ and $TNF-{\alpha}$ genotypes, the risks for IHDD could be stratified into high (intermediate-producing $IFN-{\gamma}$ and low producing $TNF-{\alpha}$), moderate, and low (low-producing $IFN-{\gamma}$ and high producing $TNF-{\alpha}$) risk groups. The incidence of IHDD was significantly different among these groups (P=0.022): 88.9% (odds ratio, OR=24.0) in high, 56.5% (OR=3.9) in moderate, and 25.0% (OR=1) in low risk groups. SNP of $IFN-{\gamma}$ and $TNF-{\alpha}$ genes may contribute to the modulation of fibrosis in the intrahepatic bile duct wall in clonorchiasis patients.

We are developing a sensitive gamma ray spectrometer based on superconducting transition edge sensors. The detector consists of a small piece of high purity Sn as an absorber and a Ti/Au bilayer as a temperature sensor. It is designed to measure the thermal signal caused by absorption of gamma rays. The mechanical support and the thermal contact between the absorber and the thermometer were made with Stycast epoxy. The bilayer was formed by e-beam evaporation and patterned by wet etching on top of a $SiN_X$ membrane. A sharp superconducting transition of the film was measured near 100 mK. When the film was biased to the edge of the transition, signals were observed due to single photon absorption emitted from an $^{241}Am$ source. The measured spectrum showed several characteristic peaks of the source including 59.5 keV gamma line. The full with at half maximum was about 900 eV for the 59.5 keV gamma line. The background was low enough to resolve low energy lines. Considerations to improve the energy resolution of the gamma ray spectrometer are also discussed.

Although radiation and chemotherapy methods for cancer therapy have advanced significantly, surgical resection is still recommended for most cancers. Therefore, intraoperative imaging studies have emerged as a surgical tool for identifying tumor margins. Intraoperative imaging has been examined using conventional imaging devices, such as optical near-infrared probes, gamma probes, and ultrasound devices. However, each modality has its limitations, such as depth penetration and spatial resolution. To overcome these limitations, hybrid imaging modalities and tracer studies are being developed. In a previous study, a multi-modal laparoscope with silicon photo-multiplier (SiPM)-based gamma detection acquired a 1 s interval gamma image. However, improvements in the near-infrared fluorophore (NIRF) signal intensity and gamma image central defects are needed to further evaluate the usefulness of multi-modal systems. In this study, an attempt was made to change the NIRF image acquisition method and the SiPM-based gamma detector to improve the source detection ability and reduce the image acquisition time. The performance of the multi-modal system using a complementary metal oxide semiconductor and modified SiPM gamma detector was evaluated in a phantom test. In future studies, a multi-modal system will be further optimized for pilot preclinical studies.

인간의 눈은 넓은 영역의 빛의 밝기를 받아들이기 위해 log 응답 특성을 갖는 반면 이미지 센서는 제한된 dynamic range를 갖는다. 선형 ADC(analog-to-digital converter)를 적용한 일반적인 CMOS 이미지 센서는 이미지의 어두운 부분을 확실하게 나타나게 하기 위하여 이득을 높이며 일부 밝은 부분의 포화 현상을 막을 수는 없다. 감마 보정은 인간의 눈의 반응에 맞추는 본질적인 방법이다. 그러나 디지털 감마 보정은 ADC 해상도와 센서 자체의 dynamic range의 한계 때문에 이미지의 질을 떨어뜨린다. 본 논문은 아날로그 감마 보정을 수행하는 비선형 ADC를 사용한 CMOS 이미지 센서를 제안한다. 제안된 비선형 ADC를 적용한 CMOS 이미지 센서는 $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용하였다. 제안된 비선형 ADC CIS를 적용한 아날로그 감마 보정이 기존의 디지털 감마 보정 방법에 비해 질적으로 향상된 이미지를 보였는데 수치적으로 200mV 미만 픽셀 출력으로 이루어진 저조도 이미지에서의 peak-signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR)는 제안된 아날로그 감마 보정이 27.8dB, 디지털 감마 보정이 25.6dB로 측정되어 아날로그 감마 보정이 디지털 감마 보정에 비해 저조도 양자화 잡음을 $28.8\%$ 개선되었음을 확인하였다.

This study was undertaken to investigate histological changes according to the radiosensitivity in the spermatogenic cells in Korean native pheasants. During spermatogenetic period, testes wete collected from male adult Korean native pheasant and they were used as experimental and control birds. The experimental group was divided into a single-dose whole body irradiation group(400, 600, 800 and 1000 rads) and a split-dose whole body irradiation groups(400/2, 600/2, 800/2 and 1000/2 rads). A Henseky's $^{60}Co$ ${\gamma}$-radiotherapy machine was used for this experiment and the dose rate of $^{60}Co$ ${\gamma}$-ray was 104 rads/min. The experimental birds were sacrificed at 24 and 72 hrs after irradiation and the control pheasants were sacrificed at the same time. General histological changes of seminiferous epithelial cells were observed by hematoxylin-eosin stain with light microscope. The results obtained are summarized as follows ; 1. In the single-dose and the split-dose irradiation groups, the average diameter of the seminiferous tubule was decreased compared with control group. 2. Seminiferous epithelial cells were more severely damaged after 72 hrs than after 24 hrs of single-dose irradiation of 400, 600 and 800 rads but the difference of cell injury was almost not observable with the elapsed time in the group of the single-dose irradiation of 1000 rads. 3. The damage of spermatogenic cells were more severe after 24 hrs than after 72 hrs of the split-dose irradiation of 400 rads but the split-dose irradiation of 600, 800 and 1000 rads were more severe after 72 hrs than after 24 hrs.

무색투명하고 순수한 단결정을 얻기 위하여 $TiO_{2}$(rutile) 단결정을 floating zone법으로 성장하였다. 성장된 결정을 c축에 수직 및 수평하게 절단하여 500~1000 nm 범위의 파장에서 선형 굴절율을 측정하였으며 흡수스펙트롬으로부터 optical energy band gap이 2.99 eV임을 알 수 있었다. $TiO_{2}$(rutile) 단결정의 $\chi^{(3)}$ 값을 반경험적인 모델을 기반으로 하여 $SiO_{2}$ quartz 단결정의 $\chi^{(3)}$ 값과 비교하여 분석하였다. 또한 제 3 비선형광학 특성에 있어서의 Ti$\^{4+}$의 영향을 해석하기 위해 second hyperpolarizability, ${\gamma}$(Ti$\^{4+}$)를 계산하였다.
