In the framework of Thomas-Fermi equation, we have examined the properties of neutron star by assuming the existence of a new intermediate force which is composition dependent. We have found that the structure, size and mass of neutron star are affected by the strength and range of this new force. In the ultrarelativistic limit, we have also confirmed that Chandraseknar mass, $M_{ch}\simeq(1-\alpha)^{-3/2}{m_{pl}}^3/m^2$ is determined by the constants of classical physical laws, which take part in the selfgravitating processes on neutron star as well as the constant of hypothetical fifth force. In the experimental limits of the fifth force, the changes of size and mass of a neutron star are in the order of strength parameter $\alpha$.

We observed the spatial distributions of atom in a magneto-optical trap. These distributions include sphere, stick, ring, ring with core, sphere-sphere, sphere-ring etc. Coordinate-dependent asymmetry radiation force (CDARF) that arises due to laser beams misalignment and transverse profile of the laser beams is exerted on atoms, and the shape of trapped cloud is changed with the misalignment parameter. We use equations of motion that takes into account the Zeeman sublevels of the 87Rb atom, magnitude and direction of magnetic field, polarization of trapping lasers, and transverse profile of the laser beams. A theoretical analysis of the equation of motion for the trapped atom explained all the experimental observations.

투명전도성 산화물(TCO,Transparent Conductive Oxide) 물질로 널리 사용되는 ITO 박막은 산화물 반도체를 평판 디스플레이용 투명전극 재료로 개발하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. ITO (Indium tin oxide)는 약 3.5 eV 정도의 넓은 밴드갭을 가진 축퇴반도체로서 전기적 및 광학적 특성이 우수하기 때문에 대표적 투명전도성 박막으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있다.현재 양산화된 ITO의 조성비는 90:10WT%인 타겟을 사용하는대 투명전극은 비저항이 $1{\times}10-3{\Omega}/sq$이하로 면저항이 $103{\Omega}/sq$전기전도성이 우수하고 380에서 780 nm의 가시광선 영역에서의 투과율이 80% 이상이라는 두 가지 성질을 만족시키는 박막이다. 본 실험에서는 SnO2 1~5wt% 인 ITO타겟을 제작하고 RF-Magnetron Sputtering을 사용하여 영구자석을 이용한 고밀도 플라즈마로 높은 점착성과, 균일한 박막 및 대면적 공정이 가능한 RF-magnetron sputtering방법으로 기판인 Slide glass위에 ITO를 증착하여 광학적 특성 및 전기적 특성에 대하여 측정하였다. 전기적, 광학적 특성 등 XRD을 통해 분석하였다. 그리고 증착된 모든 ITO 박막에서 가시광 투과율을 측정하기 위해 UV-Vis spectrophptometer을 이용하여 분석한 결과 90%이상의 높은 투과율이 측정되었다. ITO박막은 Anti-Fogging, Self-Cleaning, Solar cell 및 디스플레이소자 등 다양한 산업에 이용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

In non-saturation region, we measured the degenerate four wave mixing spectra of $X^2\;{\Pi}(v=0){\to}A^2{\Sigma}^+(v'=0)$ transition for OH in counterflow burner, which exists transiently in combustion reaction. We used forward box type geometry for phase matching. Calculating the population of each rotational level from the line intensities of R$_1$band and comparing it with Boltzmann distributions, we could obtain the temperatures of the flame at several points. Corrected for the absorption of incident laser fields, the final temperatures coincided with those measured by coherent anti-Stokes Raman Scattering within error $\pm$60 K near 2000 K. We also measured the concentration distribution of OH radical and it was compared to that measured by laser induced fluorescence.

Space charge formation in various glass materials under electron beam irradiation was investigated. Charging of spacecraft occurs in plasma and radiation environment. Especially, we focused on an accident caused by internal charging in a glass material that was used as the cover plate of solar panel array, and tried to measure the charge distribution in glass materials under electron beam irradiation by using a PEA (Pulsed Electro-Acoustic method) system. In the case of a quartz glass (pure $SiO_2$), no charge accumulation was observed either during or after the electron beam irradiation. On the contrary, positive charge accumulation was observed in glass samples containing metal-oxide components. It is found that the polarity of the observed charges depends on the contents of the impurities. To identify which impurity dominates the polarity of the accumulated charge, we measured charge distributions in several glass materials containing various metal-oxide components and calculated the trap energy depths from the charge decay characteristics of all glass samples. Furthermore, the dependence of the polarity of accumulated charges on the component of glass materials is discussed by using the models of energy bands.

Decay processes of accumulated charge in e-beam irradiated polymers during elevating temperature are observed using pulsed electro-acoustic measurement system. Since the polymeric materials have many superior properties such as light-weight, good mechanical strength, high flexibility and low cost, they are inevitable materials for spacecrafts. In space environment, however, the polymers sometimes have serious damage by irradiation of high energy charged particles. When the polymers of the spacecraft are irradiated by high energy charged particles, some of injected charges accumulate and remain for long time in the bulk of the polymers. Since the bulk charges sometimes cause the degradation or breakdown of the materials, the investigation of the charging and the decay processes in polymeric materials under change of temperature is important to decide an adequate material for the spacecrafts. By measuring the charge behavior in e-beam irradiated polymer, such as polyimide or polystyrene, it is found that the various accumulation and decay patterns are observed in each material. The results seem to be useful and be helpful to progress in the reliability of the polymers for the spacecraft.

The LC-based digitally controlled oscillator (LC-DCO), a key component of the all digital phase locked loop (ADPLL), is designed using $0.18{\mu}m$ RFCMOS process with 1.8 V supply. The NMOS core with double cross-coupled pair is chosen to realize wide tuning range, and the PMOS varactor pair that has small capacitance of a few aF and the capacitive degeneration technique to shrink the capacitive element are adopted to obtain the high frequency resolution. Also, the noise filtering technique is used to improve phase noise performance. Measurement results show the center frequency of 2.7 GHz, the tuning range of 2.5 GHz and the high frequency resolution of 2.9 kHz ~7.1 kHz. Also the fine tuning range and the current consumption of the core could be controlled by using the array of PMOS transistors using current biasing. The current consumption is between 17 mA and 26 mA at 1.8V supply voltage. The proposed DCO could be used widely in various communication system.

We obtain a solution of optical parametric amplification using self-phase modulation within the Kerr media in a nonlinear interferometer with two arms. We show that it is equivalent to the solution driven by four-wave mixing and that the solution of parametric amplification is suitable to generate a parametric gain. We obtain a derivative of power gain with respect to the propagation distance and show that gain-saturation can occur as the beam propagates along the nonlinear arms. We also show a bandwidth characteristic of the parametric amplification driven by nondegenerate four-wave mixing. Numerical examples are given to illustrate that the solution of the parametric amplification can be applied to design and analysis of all-optical devices such as all-optical amplifiers.
