The dissociative recombination of O2+(v+)＋e-→O(1S)＋O(1D) has been theoretically investigated using the multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT). Cross sections and rate coefficients at various electron energies are calculated. The resonant structures in cross section profile, which are hardly measurable in experiments, are also determined and the existence of Rydberg states is found to affect the rates. The theoretical rate coefficients are computed to be smaller than experimental ones. The reasons for this difference are explained. The two-step MQDT procedure is found to be very useful and promising in calculating the state-to-state rates of the dissociative recombination reaction which is a very important and frequently found phenomenon in Earth's ionosphere.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Filipino children aged 6-10 yrs are consuming poor quantities and quality of food based on the 2013 Philippine National Nutrition Survey. During these years healthy eating habits must be formed through family influence. Within this background, a complete package of nutrition intervention-feeding and nutrition classes, was pilot tested in selected schools to determine 1) changes in nutrition attitude and behavior and 2) food intake of schoolchildren after the intervention. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A quasi-experimental design was used in the study. School children aged 7-9 yrs enrolled in selected Philippine public elementary schools and their mothers/caregivers were the study participants. Profile and socio-demographic data were collected from each participant at baseline. The nutrition behavior and food intake of children were determined using the modified Child and Diet Evaluation Tool (CADET) and the 24-h food recall form, respectively. Data were analyzed using Stata version 15. RESULTS: No significant differences in characteristics were found among the 339 child-mother pairs in the 4 study groups. The modified CADET recorded improved mean attitude scores of children ranging from 22 to 24 points at endline in the group receiving both lunch feeding and nutrition education classes (group 3). The perceived better behavior of children was reported by their mothers in terms of increased intake of milk and vegetables and decreased consumption of sugar. These improvements were supported by the actual food intake of children obtained from the 24-h food recall. CONCLUSIONS: Family involvement, particularly of mothers/caregivers, appeared to be an important factor in shaping the children's eating behavior. An intervention package with lunch feeding and nutrition classes resulted in a substantial improvement in children's behavior and actual food intake with increased levels of vegetables and milk while lowering sugar consumption. The adoption of the intervention package in public elementary schools should therefore be pursued.

Deep submicron급 CMOS디바이스에서 래치업 면역특성을 향상시키기 위한 새로운 Triple well구조를 제안하였다. Triple well에서 이온주입 에너지와 도즈량 변화에 따른 최적인 래치업 면역을 위한 공정조건을 확립하고 이것을 기존의 Twin well구조와 비교분석하였다. 공정은 공정시뮬레이터인 ATHENA로 소자를 제작하여 도핑프로파일과 구조를 해석하고 래치업 특성은 소자시뮬레이터인 ATLAS를 사용하였다. Triple well과 Twin well의 구조에서 공정상의 차이가 도핑프로파일에 미치는 영향과 프로파일 형태가 래치업 특성에 미치는 영향을 규명하였다. Triple well구조에서 p-well이온주입에너지 2.5MeV, 도즈량 1×10/sup 14/[cm/sup -2/]일 때 트리거 전류가 2.5[mA/${\mu}{m}$]로 매우 큰 래치업 면역특성을 얻었다.

The TMA gas sensors are fabricated with the ZnO-based thin films grown by a RF magnetron sputtering method. The hall effect measurement and AES analysis are carried out to investigate the effects of the sputtering gases and dopants which effect on the electrical resistivity and sensitivity to TMA gas. We measure the cfhanges of the surface carrier concentration, haall electron mobility, electrical resistivity, surface condition, and depth profile of the films. The ZnO-based thin film sensors sputtered in oxygen, or added with dopants showed a high sruface carrier concentration, film sensors sputtered in oxygen and doped with 4.0 wt.% $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$, 1.0 wt.% TiO$_{2}$, and 0.2 wt% v$_{2}$O$_{5}$ showed the highest surface carrier concentration of 5.952 * 10$^{20}$ cm$^{-3}$ , hall electron mobility of 176.7 cm$^{2}$/V.s, lowest electrical resistivity of 6*10$^{-5}$ .ohm.cm and highest sensitivity of 12. These results were measured at a working temperature of 300.deg. C to 8 ppm TMA gas.

Both $LiNbO_3$ and $KTiOPO_4$ samples were implanted with 350 keY $H^+$ and $He^+$ ions at different doses ranging from $1 ${\times}$\times10^{16}$ to of $5 ${\times}$\times10^{16}$ ions/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Single and multi-energy implantations were performed at room temperature. Mono-mode or a few modes in both $LiNbO_3$ and $KTiOPO_4$ waveguides were observed. The effect of temperature on the refractive index profiles of $LiNbO_3$ and $KTiOPO_4$ waveguids was studied. The temperature covered from room temperature, $200^{\circ}C$, 194.5 K (dry ice) and 77K (liquid nitrogen). Different mechanisms are needed to interpret the observed behavior. A n, increased mono-mode $LiNbO_3$ waveguide was formed by multi-energy keV $He^+$ ions.

Safety and structural integrity of civil structures, like bridges and buildings, can be substantially enhanced by employing appropriate structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques for timely diagnosis of incipient damages. The information gathered from health monitoring of important infrastructure helps in making informed decisions on their maintenance. This ensures smooth, uninterrupted operation of the civil infrastructure and also cuts down the overall maintenance cost. With an early warning system, SHM can protect human life during major structural failures. A real-time online damage localization technique is proposed using only the vibration measurements in this paper. The concept of the 'Degree of Scatter' (DoS) of the vibration measurements is used to generate a spatial profile, and fractal dimension theory is used for damage detection and localization in the proposed two-phase algorithm. Further, it ensures robustness against environmental and operational variability (EoV). The proposed method works only with output-only responses and does not require correlated finite element models. Investigations are carried out to test the presented algorithm, using the synthetic data generated from a simply supported beam, a 25-storey shear building model, and also experimental data obtained from the lab-level experiments on a steel I-beam and a ten-storey framed structure. The investigations suggest that the proposed damage localization algorithm is capable of isolating the influence of the confounding factors associated with EoV while detecting and localizing damage even with noisy measurements.

Electron-beam 증발장치를 이용하여 리튬 박막 2차 전지 양극용 lithium cobalt oxide 박막을 제조하였다. Stainless steel -기판 위에 입혀진 $LiCoO_2$ 박막은 열처리 과정을 거쳐 잘 발달된 hexagonal 구조의 (003)면을 나타냈으며, 3.9 V 부근에서 전위 평탄 영역이 나타났다. $LiCoO_2$, 박막은 증착속도가 증가함에 따라 Li/co 조성비가 양론비에 근접하였으며, $15{\AA}/s$의 증착속도로 제작한 경우 높은 방전용량을 나타내었다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 용량이 증가하여 $700^{\circ}C$에서 최대 값을 나타내었으나, 그 이상의 온도에서는 기판과의 반응 때문에 방전용량이 현저히 감소하였다. 박막 내부의 리튬과 코발트의 불균일한 조성은 초기 방전용량의 감소를 가져왔다.

Background: Lung cancer is one of the commonest and most lethal cancers throughout the world. The epidemiological and pathological profile varies among different ethnicities and geographical regions. At present adenocarcinoma is the commonest histological subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in most of the Western and Asian countries. However, in India squamous cell carcinoma has been reported as the commonest histological type in most of the series. The aim of the study was to analyze the current clinico-pathological profile and survival of lung cancer at our centre. Materials and Methods: We analyzed 434 pathologically confirmed lung cancer cases registered at our centre over a period of three years. They were evaluated for their clinical and pathological profiles, treatment received and outcome. The available histology slides were reviewed by an independent reviewer. Results: Median age was 55 years with a male:female ratio of 4.6:1. Some 68% of patients were smokers. There were 85.3% NSCLC and 14.7% SCLC cases. Among NSCLCs, adenocarcinoma was the commonest histological subtype after the pathology review. Among NSCLC, 56.8% cases were of stage IV while among SCLC 71.8% cases had extensive stage disease. Some 29% of patients did not receive any anticancer treatment. The median overall and progression free survivals of the patients who received treatment were 12.8 and 7.8 months for NSCLC and 9.1 and 6.8 months for SCLC. Conclusions: This analysis suggests that adenocarcinoma may now be the commonest histological subtype also in India, provided a careful pathological review is done. Most of the patients present at advanced stage and outcome remains poor.
