최근 방사선 진단 영역에 이용되고 있는 증감지는 입사된 방사선의 감도를 증가시키기 위해 형광체를 사용하고 있으며, 외부의 에너지를 흡수하여 빛으로 방출하는 역할을 한다. 이는 방사선 검출기, 디스플레이, 의료기기 등 다양한 분야에 활용되고 있다. 필름에 X선을 노출 할 경우 형광체의 사용 유무에 따라 방사선 흡수 효율에 영향을 미치며, 이는 발광 효율 및 감도에 주요한 인자로 작용한다. 현재 상용화되어 있는 형광체는 낮은 발광 효율로 인한 한계를 가지므로, 발광 효율 향상을 위하여 제작 구조에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이 중 반사막을 활용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 형광체의 제조를 위하여 보편적으로 이용하고 있는 스크린프린팅 방법에서 건조 공정을 수행 시 균일도가 감소하는 현상이 발생한다. 이러한 현상은 반사막의 증착을 불균일하게 만드는 원인으로 작용하고 빛의 산란을 초래하는 현상을 초래한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 증착 시 투명도 저하에 따라 반사율이 증가되는 반사막 성질을 가지며, 방수성 및 절연성과 같은 보호층 특성을 지닌 유기성 투명 박막 페를린에 대하여 연구하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 화학적 증기 증착법(Chemical Vapor Deposition, CVD)을 이용하여 투명 필름의 상단에 페를린을 코팅한 시편과 코팅하지 않은 시편으로 구분하여 제작하였고, 상단에 스크핀프린팅 방법을 활용하여 형광체를 도포 하였다. 시편 제작 후 실험은 시편을 필름 상단에 위치시키고, 일반진단에너지 대역(Model-SF 80)의 X선을 조사하였다. 이 후 현상기(model-pro14)를 통해 현상된 필름에 나타난 광학적 농도(Optical Density, O.D)를 농도계(Fluke Biomedical Nuclear Associates Densitometer)로 측정하였는데, 불확실성을 줄이기 위하여 총 5회를 측정하여 그 중 2번째로 높은 값을 도출하였다. 측정 결과, 페를린을 코팅한 형광체에서는 1.71의 O.D 값이 측정되었고, 페를린을 코팅하지 않은 형광체에서는 1.43의 O.D 값이 측정되었다. 이를 이용하여 투명도를 산출한 결과 상대적으로 약 1.76% 차이가 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 페를린 활용 시 환자의 피폭 선량 저감화 및 해상력 개선을 도모할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

We report the surface photovoltage (SPV) properties of $In_{0.49}Ga_{0.51}P$/GaAs heterostructure grown by metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD). The SPV measurements were studied as a function of modulation beam intensity, modulation frequency and temperature. From a line shape analysis of room temperature derivative surface photovoltage (DSPV) spectrum, the band gap energies for GaAs and $In_{0.49}Ga_{0.51}P$ transitions were 1.400 and 1.893 eV respectively. The surface photovoltage (SPV) increases with increasing the light intensity and temperature, whereas the SPV decreases with increasing the modulation frequency. From the temperature variation of the energy gaps, we have analysis by both Varshni and Bose-Einstein type expressions.

The wave power, extracted from a circular array of small power buoys, is investigated under the potential theory. It is assumed that the buoy's radius, the draft, and the separation distance are much smaller than the water depth, the wave length, and the radius of a circular deployment area. The boundary value problem involving the macro-scale boundary condition on the mean surface covered by buoys is solved using the eigenfunction expansion method. The capture width, which is defined as the ratio of the extracted power to the wave power per unit length of the incident wave crest, is assessed for various combinations of packing ratio, radius of a circular array, and PTO damping coefficient. It is found that the circular array deployment is more effective in the viewpoint of efficiency than the single large buoy of the same total displaced volume.

This paper presents the thermal hydraulic performance of a three dimensional rib-roughened solar air heater (SAH) duct with the one principal wall subjected to uniform heat flux. The SAH duct has aspect ratio of 12.0 and the Reynolds number ranges from 2000 to 12000. The roughness has relative rib height of 0.045, ratio of dimple depth to print diameter of 0.5 and rib pitch ratio of 8.0. The flow attack angle is varied from $35^{\circ}$ to $70^{\circ}$. Various turbulent flow models are used for the heat transfer and fluid flow analysis and their results are compared with the experimental results for smooth surfaces. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results based on the renormalization k-epsilon model are in better outcomes compared with the experimental data. This model is used to calculate heat transfer and fluid flow in SAH duct with the compound roughness of V-shaped ribs and dimples. The overall thermal performance based on equal pumping power is found to be the highest (2.18) for flow attack angle of $55^{\circ}$. The thermo-hydraulic performance for V-pattern shaped ribs combined with dimple ribs is higher than that for dimple rib shape and V-pattern rib shape air duct.

In general, dose rates for a monoenergetic gamma emitter uniformly distributed in an infinite cloud have been calulated by using the monoenergetic point-isotorpic source kernel technique. The most serious limitation on use of the kernel technique is subjected to the fact that it estimates the dose only at the surface of body. As a result, an alternative method is presented in which estimates of dose rate for immersion in a radioactive cloud are resulted from the scattered photon spectra incident on the surface of body. The results are in excellent agreement with other's. Work is currently in progress to apply these results to immersion dose problems associated with absorbed dose distribution in the MIRD phatom.

Every object over $O^{\circ}K$ emits radiant energy based on its own temperature. Uncooled thermal imaging system displays the detected incident radiant energy as an image by signal processing. Recently, the uncooled thermal imaging system is applied to various areas such as medical, industrial, and military applications. Also, several researches are in progress to find new applications of the uncooled thermal imaging system. In this paper, we present effective method for controlling TEC-less detector in the uncooled thermal imaging system and also present the efficient control scheme for maximizing the accuracy of temperature measurement. The proposed scheme is to apply TEC-less and temperature detection algorithm in Uncooled thermal imaging system. In results of tests performed by using the actual chamber, we acquired images of better quality than the former system and temperature measurement accuracy was improved to less than $1^{\circ}C$.

DMM은 방사광가속기의 백색광으로부터 단색광을 추출하기 위해 두 개의 다층 박막 (multilayer) 거울을 사용하는데, 첫 번째 거울은 Bragg 반사를 통해 분광을 하여 단색광을 생산하는 용도이고, 두 번째 거울은 이 단색광을 반사시켜 지면과 평행하게 출사되게 하기 위함이다. 일반적으로 사용되는 DCM (Double Crystal Monochromator)과의 차이점은, Bragg 반사를 위해 DCM에서는 결정을 사용하는 반면 DMM은 밀도차이가 많이나는 두 종류의 물질을 교대로 쌓아 올린 다층 박막을 사용한다는 것이다. 다층 박막의 주기가 곧 Bragg 반사에서의 d-spacing이 되며, X-선 분광의 목적으로 사용되는 d-spacing은 10-50 $\AA$ 사이이다. DCM이 0.01% 대의 우수한 에너지 분해능을 보이는데 비해, DMM은 1% 정도이다. 이 때문에 출사광의 밝기가 DCM에 비해 100배 밝은 특징이 있어서 에너지 분해능보다 광량이 더 중요한 응용에서 DMM이 사용된다. X-선 영상이나 방사선치료가 바로 이러한 응용에 해당한다. DMM은 포항가속기연구소와 (주) 벡트론에서 공동 설계하였으며, (주)벡트론에서 제작하였다. 그림 1에 DMM의 외형과 내부 구조를 나타내었다. Bragg 각의 조절 범위는 0.24-0.9도 이다. 입사광과 출사광의 수직 방향 offset을 10 mm로 유지하기 위해 두 번째 다층 박막이 수평방향으로 1,000 mm 가량 이동할 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위해 두 대의 고니오미터 stage를 사용하여 각각 첫 번째 및 두 번째 다층 박막의 위치와 방향을 제어한다. 첫 번째 다층 박막을 제어하는 고니오미터 stage는 하부가 전체 프레임에 고정되어 있고, 이 고니오미터의 회전축에서 Bragg 각을 조절한다. 두 번째 다층 박막을 제어하는 고니오미터 stage는 높이방향과 수평방향으로 이동이 가능하다. 다층 박막의 pitch는 고니오미터의 회전축에서 조절한다. 그리고 tilt stage를 사용하여 다층 박막의 roll을 조절한다.

Regular waves were generated in a wave flume under perfect reflection condition to evaluate performance of three CFD models of CADMAS-SURF, olaFlow, and KIOSTFOAM. The experiments and numerical simulations were carried out for three different conditions of non-breaking, breaking of standing waves, and breaking of incident waves. Among the three CFD models, KIOSTFOAM showed best performance in reproducing the experimental results. Although the run time was reduced by using CADMAS-SURF, its computational accuracy was worse than KIOSTFOAM. olaFlow was the fastest model, but active wave absorption at the wave generation boundary was not satisfactory. In addition, the model excessively dissipated wave energy when wave breaking occurred.

We have conducted a study to control the light-intensity distribution at the output end of a multimode optical fiber via estimating the transmission matrix. A circularly arranged Hadamard eigenmode phase distribution was implemented using a spatial light modulator, and the transmission matrix of a multimode optical fiber was experimentally obtained using a four-phase method. Based on the derived transmission matrix, the spatial phase distribution of light incident upon the optical fiber was adjusted via the spatial light modulator in advance, to focus the light at a desired position at the optical fiber output. The light could be focused with an intensity up to 359.6 times as high as that of the surrounding background signal at a specific position of the multimode fiber's output end, and the intensity of the focused beam was on average 104.6 times as large as that of the background signal, across the area of the multimode fiber's core.

The plasmon behaviors in a superlattice of $GaAs/Al_xGa_{1-x}As$ multiple quantum wells with a half-parabolic confining potential due to different dielectric interfaces are studied under magnetic and electric fields perpendicular and parallel to the superlattice axis by using a previously published theoretical framework. From the density-density correlation functions by considering the intrasubband and the inter-subband transitions under the random phase approximation, we calculate the dispersion energies of the surface and the bulk states as functions of the composition of the multiple quantum well structure and of the magnetic field strength and the average electric field strength over the quantum well. The Raman intensities for various magnetic field strengths and average electric field strengths over the quantum well are also obtained as a function of the energy of the incoming light for these states.
