This paper presents a surface acoustic wave(SAW) micro-electro-mechanical-systems(MEMS) interdigital transducer (IDT) gyroscope with 80MHz central frequency on a $128^{\circ}\;YX\;LiNbO_3$, which is consisted of a two-port SAW resonator, metallic dots and dual delay lines for the sensor and reference oscillators. Reason for using two delay line oscillators is to extract the gyroscope effect by comparing the resonant frequencies between two oscillators and to compensate the temperature effect. Based on the coupling of modes(COM) simulation, an 80MHz two ports SAW resonator and dual delay line were fabricated and characterized by the network analyzer. Obtained sensitivity was $109Hz/deg{\cdot}s^{-1}$ in the angular rate range of $0{\sim}1000deg/s$. Good Linearity and superior directivity were observed.

The chemical structure of a semi-aromatic polyimide-I, which was prepared by the chemical imidization of cyclopentanetetracarboxylic dianhydride and 2,2-bis(4-aminophenyl)hexafluoropropane, was characterized by $^{13}C-NMR$ spectroscopy. The chemically imidized polyimide-I was used for the preparation of a photosensitive polyimide (PSPI) through the addition of benzophenone and benzophenone oxime hexamethylene diurethane (BOHD), a photobase generator containing oxime-urethane groups. The polyimide-I film containing benzophenone and BOHD was not soluble in 2.38 wt% tetrabutylammonium hydroxide solution in $H_2O$. However, it became soluble following irradiation with 310 nm UV light. A positive tone image with a resolution of $5{\mu}m$ was obtained with this PSPI, having sensitivity($D_c$) of $1.2J/cm^2$ and contrast(${\gamma}_p$) of 1.08. Thus, a polyimide, which is not intrinsically photosensitive, can become photosensitive through the addition of a photobase generator containing oxime-urethane groups as a photosensitive compound.

The combined wastewater of municipal landfill leachate and municipal sewage was treated using several sets of bench-scale aerated circulating system including porous media. Investigated items in this experiment were the dominant protozoa and metazoa in this system, the variation of microfauna relationship between operating condition and dominant genera. Also considered the factors determining dominant genera and their role. The outcome of this research is as follows; 1. Aspidisca, Vorticella, Truhellophyllum, Lecane, Philodina, Cyclops were mainly appeared prior to combinding leachate, while Trachelocerca, Bodo, Glaucoma were the dominant genera after combinding leachate. 2. As to metazoa, Nematode and Philodina were not influenced by 5oA leachate mixing ratio, meanwhile Crustacea has high sensitivity for increased leachate mixing ratio and it was not appeared in 5% leachate mixing ratio. 3. The appropriate treatability could'nt be expected at the above 10% leachate mixing ratio. Especially, in the condition of 20% leachate mixing ratio, all of the microfauna were affected damage seriously on their existence. Meanwhile hydraulic retention time, substrate loading rate and slut자e production rate didn't give notable influence on increasing the number of microfauna. 4. As to protozoa, saprozoic and holozoic species were appeared commonly and polysaprobic species were dominent. 5. Filamentous organsms were nearly not affected by leachate mixing. It seems that they could live without any trouble at the 10% leachate mixing ratio, if the substrate is sufficient. 6. Diversity of microfauna had a reducing trernd as the sewage was mixed with leachate.

Composite scintillation screens on a base of Gd_1.2Y_1.8Ga_2.5Al_2.5O₁₂:Ce (GYAGG) scintillator have been evaluated for neutron detection. Besides the powdered scintillator, the composite includes ⁶LiF particles; both are merged with a binder and deposited onto the light-reflecting aluminum substrate. Results obtained demonstrates that screens are suitable for use with a silicon photomultiplier readout to create a prospective solution for a compact and low-cost thermal neutron sensor. Composite GYAGG/⁶LiF scintillation screen shows a pretty matched sensitivity and γ-background rejection with a widely used ZnS/⁶LiF screens however, possesses forty times faster response.

All-in-one adhesives were recently developed for reducing the technique sensitivity and chair time, but lots of concerns were made on bondability, longevity, and microleakage. The object of this study was to evaluate microleakage and marginal quality of all-in-one adhesives using electrochemical method and SEM analysis quantitatively. After making Class V cavities, they were bulk filled with Heliomolar(#A1 after surface treatment with three adhesives: Adper Prompt (Group A), One up bond F (Group O), Xeno III (Group X) Electrical conductivity (microamphere, ${\mu}A$) was checked two times: before and after cavity filling. Percentage of leaky margin was estimated from SEM image (${\times}1,000$). The data were statistically analysed: ANOVA and Paired T test for electrical conductivity, Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney test for marginal quality, Spearman s rho test for checking of relationships between 2 methods. The result were as follows: 1. There was no difference in microleakage between adhesive systems and every specimen showed some of microleakage after filling. 2. Microleakage was reduced about 70% with composite resin filling. 3. Marginal quality was the best in group A. decreasing among groups in the following order: group O, followed by group X. There were significant differences between group A and group X (p=0.015), and between group 0 and group X (p=0.019). 4. There was no relationship between the microleakage measured by electrochemical method and marginal quality measured by SEM analysis. Within the results of this study, there was no difference in microleakage among groups by electrical conductivity. However, significant difference in marginal quality was seen among groups. It was believed that these dissimilar results might be induced because of their own characteristics. Analysis of microleakage needs various methods for accuracy.

Laser ablation ion trap mass spectrometry (LAITMS) was developed for the analysis of metal and ceramic samples. For this study, XeCl excimer laser (308 nm) was used for ablating the samples and ITMS was used as a detector. Samples were introduced from outside of a ring electrode and this way of sample introduction was very effective for solid samples when laser ablation was employed. Helium gas was used as a buffer gas, and its effect on sensitivity and some parameters (buffer gas pressure, ion storage time, and cut-off RF voltage) were studied. The optimized conditions were $1{\times}10^{-4}$ Torr of buffer gas pressure, 100 ms of ion storage time and $1150V_{p-p}$ of cut-off RF voltage. From that results, copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo) metals were tested with LAITMS and the mass spectra of these pure metals were compared with the natural abundance of isotope ratio. We also examined ceramic samples ($Al_2O_3$, $ZrO_2$) and represented the result of elemental analysis.

Purpose： To know the differences of the proton MR spectroscopic features of the liver between th patients with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and without GVHD (non-GVHD) after to marrow transplantation (BMT), and to evaluate the possibility to discriminate GVHD fro non-GVHD by analysis of the in vivo proton MR spectra. Method： We evaluated the in vivo proton MR spectra from the livers of 37 patients wh underwent BMT. Our series included 14 cases with GVHD and 23 without GVHD in the liver. Nineteen men and 18 women were included in our series. All cases of GVHD and 2 o non-GVHD were confirmed by liver biopsy and remaining of non-GVHD by evaluation clinical follow up. Proton MR spectroscopy (1H-MRS) was performed at 1.5T GE Sign Horizon (GE Medical System, Milwaukee, USA) system using localized proton STEAM sequence and body coil in all cases with subjects were located in supine position. N respiratory interruption was required during the spectroscopic signal acquisition. Paramete using in MRS were： TR = over 3000ms, TE = 30ms, number of scans = 128, voxel size = ($2{\times}2{\times}2$)$cm^3$, and one NEX. We evaluated the spectra with an attention to the differences o patterns of the peaks between GVHD and non-GVHD groups. The ratio of peak area of peaks at 1.6-4.1ppm to lipid (0.9-1.6ppm) [P(1.6-4.1ppm)/P(0.9-1.6ppm)] was calculated in GVHD and non-GVHD group, and compared the results between these groups. We als evaluated the sensitivity and specificity for discriminating GVHD from non-GVHD by anal of 1H-MRS.

Flat-panel direct conversion detectors used in compound substance of semiconductor are being studied for digital x-ray imaging. Recently, such detectors are deposited by physical vapor deposition(PVD) generally. But, most of materials (HgI2, PbI2, TlBr, PbO) deposited by PVD have shown difficult fabrication and instability for large area x-ray imaging. Consequently, in this paper, we propose applicable potentialities for screen printing method that is coated on a substrate easily. It is compared to electrical properties among semiconductors such as $HgI_2$, $PbI_2$, PbO, HgBrI, InI, and $TlPbI_3$ under investigation for direct conversion detectors. Each film detector consists of an ~25 to $35\;{\mu}m$ thick layer of semiconductor and was coated onto the substrate. Substrates of $2cm{\times}2cm$ have been used to evaluate performance of semiconductor radiation detectors. Dark current, sensitivity and physics properties were measured. Leakage current of $HgI_2$ as low as $9pA/mm^2$ at the operation bias voltage of ${\sim}1V/{\mu}m$ was observed. Such a value is not better than PVD process, but it is easy to be fabricated in high quality for large area x-ray Imaging. Our future efforts will concentrate on optimization of growth of film thickness that is coated onto a-Si TFT array.

The hybrid thin-film (HTF) passivation layer composed of the Ultra Violet (UV) curable acrylate layer and MS-31 (MgO:$SiO_2$=3:1wt%) layer was adopted in organic light emitting device (OLEO) to protect organic light emitting materials from penetrations of oxygen and water vapors. The results showed that the HTF layer possessed a very low WVTR value of lower than $0.007gm/m^{2+}day$ at $37.8^{\circ}C$ and 100% RH. This value was within the limited range of the sensitivity of WVTR measurements. And the lifetime of the HTF passivated device became almost three times longer than that of the bare device. The HTF on the OLEO was found to be very effective in protect what from the penetrations of oxygen and moisture.

A field effect transistor(FET) type dissolved carbon dioxide($pCO_{2}$) sensor with a double layer structure of hydrogel membrane and $CO_{2}$ gas permeable membrane was fabricated by utilizing a $H^{+}$ ion selective field effect transistor(pH-ISFET) with Ag/AgCl reference electrode as a base chip. Formation of hydrogel membrane with photo-crosslinkable PVA-SbQ or PVP-PVAc/photosensitizer system was not suitable with the photolithographic process. Furthermore, hydrogel membrane on pH-ISFET base chip could be fabricated by photolithographic method with the aid of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl othylenediarnine(TED) as $O_{2}$ quencher without using polyester film as a $O_{2}$ blanket during UV irradiation process. Photosensitive urethane acrylate type oligomer was used as gas permeable membrane on top of hydrogel layer. The FET type $pCO_{2}$ sensor fabricated by photolithographic method showed good linearity (linear calibration curve) in the range of $10^{-3}{\sim}10^{0}\;mol/{\ell}$ of dissolved $CO_{2}$ in aqueous solution with high sensitivity.
