With the recent development and increasing importance of personal identification systems, biometric technologies with less risk of loss or unauthorized use are being popularized rapidly. In particular, because of their high identification rate and convenience, fingerprint identification systems are being used much more commonly than other biometric systems such as iris recognition, face recognition and vein pattern recognition. However, a fingerprint identification system has the problem that artificially forged finger-prints can be used as input data. Thus, in order to solve this problem, the present study proposed a method for detecting forged fingerprints by measuring the degree of attenuation when the light from an optical fingerprint sensor passes through the finger and analyzing changes in the transmission of light over stages at fixed intervals. In order to prove improvement in the performance of the proposed system, we conducted an experiment that compared the system with an existing multi-sensor recognition system that measures also the temperature of fingerprint. According to the results of the experiment, the proposed system improved the forged fingerprint detection rate by around 32.6% and this suggests the possibility of solving the security problem in fingerprint identification systems.

최근 대기압 플라즈마 젯을 이용한 바이오/메디컬의 활발한 응용연구가 진행 중이다. 박테리아 및 세균의 살균은 물론 암세포 세포예정사에 핵심적인 역할을 하는 활성산소종(Reactive Oxygen Species, ROS) 또는 다양한 라디칼들은 대기압 플라즈마의 다양한 변수를 이용하여 조절할 수 있다고 알려져 있다. 수십 kHz의 고전압에서 발생된 마이크로 헬륨 플라즈마 젯에서 질소종의 제어를 통해 같은 부피의 플라즈마 젯에서의 방출광을 살펴보았다. 또한 광섬유센서를 이용하여 플라즈마의 기체온도를 측정하고 Boltzmann plot method를 통해 전자의 여기온도 변화를 관찰하였다. 실험의 결과, 같은 부피의 플라즈마에서 질소종이 증가할 때 기체온도는 큰 변함이 없지만 여기온도가 증가하는 것을 관찰하였다. 시간분해 이미지 촬영으로 질소종의 양에 따른 플라즈마 불릿의 속도 변화를 분석을 하였고, 최종적으로 대기압 플라즈마 젯의 질소종 변화에 따른 대장균의 비활성화 정도를 관찰하였다.

The glass/Ta(5.8 nm)/NiFe(5 nm)/Cu(2.3 nm)/NiFe(3 nm)/IrMn(12 nm)/Ta(5.8 nm) GMR-SV (giantmagneto-resistance-spin valve) multilayer structure films with a magnetoresistance ratio (MR) of 5.0 % and a magnetic sensitivity (MS) of 1.5%/Oe was deposited by dc magnetron sputtering method. Also, GMR-SV device having a width of $7{\mu}m{\sim}8{\mu}m$ similar to the diameter of RBC (red blood cell) was fabricated by the light lithography process. When RBCs coupled with several magnetic beads with a diameter of $1{\mu}m$ dropped upon the GMR-SV device having MR = 1.06% and MS = 0.3 %/Oe, there is observed the variation of about included of a resistance value of ${\Delta}R=0.4{\Omega}$ and ${\Delta}MR=0.15%$ around a external magnetic field of -0.6 Oe. From these results, the GMR-SV device having the width magnitude of a few micron size can be applied as the biosensor for the analysis of a new magnetic property of hemoglobin inside of RBC combined to magnetic beads.

The spiropyran is a typical material having photodegradation properties in the process of photochromism. The spiropyran has been utilized in various applications such as optical switch, optical memories, and biosensor because of its remarkable stability, fast responsive time, stronger color change, and photo-induced controllability. However, the spriropyran is photodegraded by the repetitive optical irradiation. The photodegradation of spiropyran have been investigated by using UV-Visible spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and Raman spectroscopy. Herein, the properties of spiropyran were characterized by using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) in the terahertz frequency region. In terahertz region, the measured absorbance of spiropyran was increased due to the photodegradation induced by the repetitive UV irradiation. The absorbance tendency of spiropyran in the terahertz frequency region was compared with that in the visible region, and they were completely opposite to each other.

In this study, the leaf Na content prediction model for spring potato was established using 400-1000 nm hyperspectral sensor to develop the multispectral sensor for the salinity monitoring in reclaimed land. The irrigation conditions were standard, drought, and salinity (2, 4, 8 dS/m), and the irrigation amount was calculated based on the amount of evaporation. The leaves' Na contents were measured 1st and 2nd weeks after starting irrigation in the vegetative, tuber formative, and tuber growing periods, respectively. The reflectance of the leaves was converted from 5 nm to 10 nm, 25 nm, and 50 nm of FWHM (full width at half maximum) based on the 10 nm wavelength intervals. Using the variance importance in projections of partial least square regression(PLSR-VIP), ten band ratios were selected as the variables to predict salinity damage levels with Na content of spring potato leaves. The MLR(Multiple linear regression) models were estimated by removing the band ratios one by one in the order of the lowest weight among the ten band ratios. The performance of models was compared by not only R2, MAPE but also the number of band ratios, optimal FWHM to develop the compact multispectral sensor. It was an advantage to use 25 nm of FWHM to predict the amount of Na in leaves for spring potatoes during the 1st and 2nd weeks vegetative and tuber formative periods and 2 weeks tuber growing periods. The selected bandpass filters were 15 bands and mainly in red and red-edge regions such as 430/440, 490/500, 500/510, 550/560, 570/580, 590/600, 640/650, 650/660, 670/680, 680/690, 690/700, 700/710, 710/720, 720/730, 730/740 nm.

The purpose of this study is to develop biosensor for determination of glucose, lactate, and ethanol in foods and food-stuffs simultaneously. The multiple cathode system was prepared with an oxygen electrode having one anode and hexagonal cathode. Glucose oxidase, mutarotase, lactate oxidase, alcohol oxidase and catalase were used for immobilization to determine glucose, lactate, and ethanol. These components including ethanol were simultaneously determined by the immobilized enzymes in the multiple cathode system. The determination of the components by enzyme sensor was based on the maximum slope of oxygen consumption from enzyme reaction of each sensor part. The response time for analysis was 1 min. The optimum condition for glucose, lactate and ethanol sensor was found to be 0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0 at $40^{\circ}C$. Interferences of various sugars and organic acids were investigated. Less than 10% of error was found in determination of the components except organic acids. This difference was compensated by the modified equation. This system was confirmed by conventional methods. It was concluded that the multiple cathode system of this study is for an effective method to determine sugar, organic acid, ethanol simultaneously in foods.

Biodegradable molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) can be applied in the biomedical area of biosensors, drug delivery, etc. Therefore, in this study, biodegradable theophylline MIPs were synthesized via photopolymerization using a poly $(\varepsilon-caprolactone)$ (PCL) macromer as a cross-linker and their physical properties were investigated. The yield for the synthesis of the PCL macromer with terminal acrylate groups was ca. 78 mol%. The products were characterized by the combination of FT-IR and $^1H-NMR$ spectroscopic analyses. UV/Visible spectroscopic analysis for removing and rebinding theophylline was performed by monitoring the theophylline concentration in the solution. In vitro biodegradation tests of the theophylline MIPs performed in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution at $37^{\circ}C$ showed good biodegradability of the MIPs.

It is generally recognized that monitering of bio-molecules, which are related to the ocean environment, becomes more important. So far, for the detection of the bio-molecules, ocean samples were brought to laboratory to be analyzed using a complicate and expensive measuring system The "ship and dip" method takes a relatively long time to complete a analysis cycle and causes significant errors due to the time difference between the analysis processes. In order to overcome the drawbacks, developments of sensors for the detection of bio-molecules were suggested using nano-technology, such as nano-spintronic device, carbon nano tube device, and nano-semiconductors. The pros and cons of the technology were examined and reinvestigated to overcome the technical problems in the application to real sensors.
