  • Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are known for irregular variability on all time scales, down to intra-day variability with relative variations of a few percent within minutes to hours. On such short timescales, unexplored territory, such as the possible existence of a shortest characteristic time scale of activity and the shape of the high frequency end of AGN power spectra, still exists. We present the results of AGN single-dish fast photometry performed with the Korean VLBI Network (KVN). Observations were done in a “anti-correlated” mode using two antennas, with always at least one antenna pointing at the target. This results in an effective time resolution of less than three minutes. We used all four KVN frequencies, 22, 43, 86, and 129 GHz, in order to trace spectral variability, if any. We were able to derive high-quality light curves for 3C 111, 3C 454.3, and BL Lacertae at 22 and 43 GHz, and for 3C 279 at 86 GHz, between May 2012 and April 2013. We performed a detailed statistical analysis in order to assess the levels of variability and the corresponding upper limits. We found upper limits on flux variability ranging from ~1.6% to ~7.6%. The upper limits on the derived brightness temperatures exceed the inverse Compton limit by three to six orders of magnitude. From our results, plus comparison with data obtained by the University of Michigan Radio Astronomy Observatory, we conclude that we have not detected source-intrinsic variability which would have to occur at sub-per cent levels.

  • We present results of searching for the Very Low Luminosity Objects (VeLLOs; internal luminosity : $L_{int}$ < $0.1(d/140pc)^2\;L\odot$) in the Gould's Belt clouds using observations from 3.6 to 70 micron by the Spitzer Space Telescope. The clouds are California, Chamaeleon I, III, Musca, Lupus V, VI, Scorpius, Serpens, Corona Australis, Cepheus, and IC 5146 having the properties of active low-mass star-forming such as the Taurus cloud. The observing sensitivity of the Spitzer data is estimated to be about $L_{int}\;\geq\;5\times10^{-3}(d/140pc)^2\;L\odot$, a factor of 20 better than that of the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS). The observing data were processed by the c2d Legacy pipeline. As the criteria to select the VeLLOs, we slightly modified previous ones by Dunham et al. The most important criterion is a flux density at 70 micron that is directly converted to the internal luminosity. Also, we used additional criteria to remove the contamination of evolved stars and extragalaxies which have colors or SEDs very similar to YSOs. We identified a total of 64 new embedded VeLLO candidates with $L_{int}$ < $0.1(d/140pc)^2\;L\odot$, consisting of 8 in California, 15 in Chamaeleon-Musca, 13 in Scorpius-Lupus, 20 in Serpens, 3 in Corona Australis, 3 in Cepheus, and 2 in IC 5146. The classification of the spectral index (${\alpha}$) fitted to the shape of the Ks-24 micron SEDs shows most of VeLLO candidates (89%) are in types of Class I and Flat spectrum. We plot various diagrams based on their 2MASS-Spitzer bands colors and magnitudes to discuss properties of the VeLLOs. This search will lead us new adventure toward a future systematic study of the VeLLOs.

  • Semi-active devices use the building's own motion to produce resistive forces and are thus strictly dissipative and require little power. Devices that independently control the binary open/closed valve state can enable novel device hysteresis loops that were not previously possible. However, some device hysteresis loops cannot be obtained without active analog valve control allowing slower, controlled release of stored energy, and is presents an ongoing limitation in obtaining the full range of possibilities offered by these devices. This in silico study develops a proportional-derivative feedback control law using a validated nonlinear device model to track an ideal diamond-shaped force-displacement response profile using active analog valve control. It is validated by comparison to the ideal shape for both sinusoidal and random seismic input motions. Structural application specific spectral analysis compares the performance for the non-linear, actively controlled case to those obtained with an ideal, linear model to validate that the potential performance will be retained when considering realistic nonlinear behaviour and the designed valve control approach. Results show tracking of the device force-displacement loop to within 3-5% of the desired ideal curve. Valve delay, rather than control law design, is the primary limiting factor, and analysis indicates a ratio of valve delay to structural period must be 1/10 or smaller to ensure adequate tracking, relating valve performance to structural period and overall device performance under control. Overall, the results show that active analog feedback control of energy release in these devices can significantly increase the range of resetable, valve-controlled semi-active device performance and hysteresis loops, in turn increasing their performance envelop and application space.

  • Bacteriophage f2에 대한 자외광선의 살균효과와 외투막 단백질의 구조에 미치는 영향을 Ray-onet photoreactor PPR-208을 사용하여 300nm의 광선으로 연구하였다. 처음 20분간의 조사에서는 약 4 log의 phage가 감소되고 그후 완만한 살균효과를 보이다가 90분 이상의 조사에서는 생존 바이러스가 발견되지 않았다. Tryptophan residue의 fluorescenve quenching, 자외선으로 조신한 phage에 부착시킨 ANS (8-anilino-1-napht-halene sulfonate)의 fluorescence emission의 감소, tryptophan에서 ANS로의 energy transfer 의 감소 등 spectroscopic technique에 의한 결과와 자외선 조사에 의하여 단백질 외투만이 파손되는 전자현미경 관찰의 결과에 의하여 자외광선은 phage f2의 외투막 단백질의 구조에 변화를 일으킨다는 것이 밝혀졌다.

  • DMT(Discrete Multi-Tone) 기반의 VDSL(Very high bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line) 시스템에서 외부에서 유입되는 RFI(Radio Frequency Interference)가 존재할 경우 이는 finite-point FET에 의하여 전대역으로 확산되어 시스템의 성능이 크게 저하된다. 본 논문에서는 고속 전송률을 갖는 DMT 기반의 VDSL 시스템에서 외부에서 유입되는 RFI를 효율적으로 보상할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 방식은 신호와 함께 유입되는 RFI 성분이 협대역의 신호라는 가정하에 수신단에서 주파수 영역의 추정 값을 바탕으로 시간영역에서 간단한 RFI 제거기를 사용하여 RFI에 의한 VDSL 시스템의 성능저하를 보상한다. 제안된 RFI 제거기법은 별도의 훈련심벌과 수렴기간이 필요 없으며, 유입되는 RFI 신호의 주파수 특성이 임의의 형태이거나 미지의 신호일 경우에도 잘 동작한다. 모의실험을 통하여 기존 RFI 제거기법과의 성능비교를 함으로써 제안된 방식의 실용 가능성을 입증한다.

  • HgTe quantum dots were synthesized in aqueous solution at room temperature by colloidal method. The synthesized materials were identified to be zincblende cubic structured HgTe quantum dots by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy image revealed that these quantum dots are agglomerate of a individual particle. The colloidally prepared HgTe quantum dots have the sphere-like shape with a diameter of approximately 4 nm. The optical properties of the HgTe quantum dots were investigated with photoluminescence(PL). The PL appears in the near-infrared region, which represent a dramatic shift from bulk HgTe behavior. The analytic results revealed that HgTe quantum dots have the broad size distribution, as PL emission spectrum covers the spectral region from 900 to 1400 nm. In this study, the factors affecting PL of HgTe quantum dots and particle size distributiont are described.會Ā᐀䁇?⨀젲岒Ā㰀會Ā㰀顇?⨀끩Ā㈀會Ā㈀?⨀䡪ఀĀ᐀會Ā᐀䡈?⨀Ā᐀會Ā᐀ꁈ?⨀硫ᜀĀ저會Ā저?⨀샟ගऀĀ저會Ā저偉?⨀栰岒ఀĀ저會Ā저ꡉ?⨀1岒Ā저會Ā저J?⨀惝ග؀Ā؀會Ā؀塊?⨀ග嘀Ā切會Ā切끊?⨀⣟ගĀ搀會Ā搀ࡋ?⨀큭킢Ā저會Ā저恋?⨀桮킢Ā저會Ā저롋?⨀⣅沥ࠀĀࠀ會Āࠀ၌?⨀샅沥Ā저會Ā저桌?⨀壆沥ሀĀ저會Ā저쁌?⨀o킢瀀ꀏ會Āᡍ?⨀棤좗ĀĀĀ會ĀĀ灍?⨀å좗ĀĀĀ會ĀĀ졍?⨀飥좗ĀĀĀ會ĀĀ⁎?⨀?ꆟᤀ

  • A novel anthraquinone diamino-bridged bis($\beta$ -cyclodextrin) 2 was synthesized. The inclusion complexation behaviors of the native $\beta$ -cyclodextrin 1 and the novel bis($\beta$ -cyclodextrin) 2 with guests, such as acridine red (AR), neutral red (NR), ammonium 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS), sodium 2-(p-toluidinyl) naphthalenesulfonate (TNS) and rhodamine B (RhB) were investigation by fluorescence, circular dichroism and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The spectral titrations were performed in phosphate buffer (pH 7.20) at 25 ${^{\circ}C}$ to give the complex stability constants (Ks) and Gibbs free energy changes (−${\Delta}G^0$) for the stoichiometric 1:1 inclusion complexation of host 1 and 2 with guests. The results indicated that the novel bis($\beta$ -cyclodextrin) 2 greatly enhanced the original binding affinity of the native $\beta$ -cyclodextrin 1. Typically, bis($\beta$ -cyclodextrin) 2 showed the highest binding constant towards ANS up to 34.8 times higher than that of 1. The 2D NMR spectra of bis($\beta$ -cyclodextrin) 2 with RhB and TNS were performed to confirm the binding mode. The increased binding affinity and molecular selectivity of guests by bis($\beta$ -cyclodextrin) 2 were discussed from the viewpoint of the size/shape-fit concept and multipoint recognition mechanism.

  • CuS (copper sulfide) thin films having the same thickness of 100nm were deposited on the glass substrates using by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering method. RF powers were applied as a process variable for the growth of CuS thin films. The structural and optical properties of CuS thin films deposited under different power conditions (40-100W) were studied. XRD analysis revealed that all CuS thin films had hexagonal crystal structure with the preferential growth of (110) planes. As the sputtering power increased, the relative intensity of the peak with respect to the (110) planes decreased. The peaks of the two bands (264cm-1 and 474cm-1) indicated in the Raman spectrum exactly matched the typical spectral values of the covellite (CuS). The size and shape of the grains constituting the surface of the CuS thin films deposited under the power condition ranging from 40W to 80W hardly changed. However, the spacing between crystal grains tended to increase in proportion to the increase in sputtering power. The maximum transmittance of CuS thin films grown at 40W to 80W ranged from 50 % to 51 % based on 580nm wavelength, and showed a relatively small decrease of 48% at 100W. The band gap energy of the CuS thin films decreased from 2.62eV (at 40W) to 2.56eV (at 100W) as the sputtering power increased.
