pn 접합 소자는 반도체 소자의 매우 중요한 기본 구조이다. 최근 들어 나노선과 반도체 기판으로 구성된 pn 접합소자에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으나, 나노선을 이용한 대부분의 접합소자는 나노선을 분산하여 소자를 제작하기 때문에 어레이 구조의 소자를 만들기에는 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 성장된 나노선을 슬라이딩 전이하는 방법으로 정렬된 n-$SnO_2$ 나노선과 도핑이 된 p-Si 기판으로 이루어진 pn 접합 소자 어레이 구조를 제작하였다. 제작된 소자의 전류-전압 측정을 통해 정류 (rectification) 작용을 확인하였고 rectification ratio은 수천~수만으로 측정되었다. 소자에 UV (254nm) 빛을 조사하여 광전류의 증가를 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 소자에 15V이상의 전압을 걸어주면 접합 부분에서 EL(electroluminescence) 효과인 발광을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이처럼 나노선과 기판으로 구성된 pn 접합 소자는 다이오드, 태양전지 뿐 아니라 레이저와 LED등으로도 응용될 것으로 예상된다.

Workers in nuclear medicine have performed various tasks such as production, distribution, preparation and injection of radioisotope. This process could cause high radiation exposure to wokers' hand. The purpose of this study was to investigate shielding effect for r-rays of 140 and 511 keV by using Monte-carlo simulation. As a result, it was effective, regardless of lead thickness for radiation shielding in 140 keV r-ray. However, it was effective in shielding material with thickness of more than only 1.1 mm in 511keV r-ray. And also it doesn't effective in less than 1.1 mm due to secondary scatter ray and exposure dose was rather increased. Consequently, energy of radionuclide and thickness of shielding materials should be considered to reduce radiation exposure.

The mechanisms underlying the refractory effects of flutamide, a first-line oral anti-androgen drug, have not been entirely elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the mechanism of flutamide-induced hormone-refractory prostate cancer cell growth and its modulation by resveratrol, a phytoalexin present in grapes. Resveratrol significantly attenuated interleukin 6 (IL-6)-induced signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) transcriptional activity and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) or IL-6-induced prostate-specific antigen (PSA) transcriptional activity. Furthermore, compared to treatment with DHT or IL-6 alone, combination treatment of cells significantly increased PSA transcriptional activity, and resveratrol markedly diminished DHT plus IL-6-induced STAT3 and PSA transcriptional activities. Thus, the inhibitory effects of resveratrol on IL-6-, DHT-, and flutamide-induced hormone-refractory prostate cancer cell growth are partly mediated by the suppression of STAT3 reporter gene activity, suggesting that resveratrol represents a promising therapy for prostate cancer.

Phytophthora blight of pepper, which is caused by Phytophthora capsici Leonian, is not only the most destructive disease worldwide, but also difficult to control effectively. It has been needed to have new trials for effective control to the disease. We employed radiation hormesis of gamma ray as the new trial in the control strategy. Two cultivars, Kwangbok and Dabok, were used to analyse whether gamma ray radiation can induce disease resistance. The germination rate of pepper seeds was significantly enhanced by the radiation at all dose levels. Stimulatory effect for resistance induction was found to differ between cultivars. It was confirmed that the remarkable effect was induced in Dabok and depended on radiation dosage. Disease resistance at 4 Gy was much higher than that of control. On the other hand, no detectable induction effect for resistance was observed in Kwangbok which was moderate resistant cultivar to gamma ray radiation.

In this study, $Co^{60}$ gamma-ray induced loss on Ge-doped single mode (SM) fiber has been measured. Gamma-ray is irradiated for 4 hours at the dose rate of 0.5 kGy/hr, 2 kGy/hr, 8 kGy/hr. Consequently, gamma-ray induced loss based on radiation effects in Ge-doped SM fiber occur significantly. Furthermore, dose rate effect was observed, that dose rate using the same total dose increased higher, then optical fiber loss increased more. Also annealing effect was observed, that the loss after irradiation, increased higher, then the recovery rate of loss was increased. This results are foreseen to be base data in the future radiation-hardened optical fiber study.

In this paper, a periodically corrugated transmission line is proposed. The proposed transmission line can reduce crosstalk between transmission lines. The corrugated transmission line can adjust the amount of inductive coupling and capacitive coupling equally. Thus, the crosstalk is effectively reduced because the inductive coupling and capacitive coupling cancel each other. The corrugated transmission line is fabricated on RO4003 substrate with a dielectric constant of 3.38 and a thickness of 0.508 mm. The simulated far-end crosstalks of conventional transmission line and corrugated transmission line with a period of A=1 mm have maximum values of -3.6 dB and -22 dB, respectively, up to 30 GHz. Measurement results showed that far-end crosstalks of the conventional and corrugated transmission line have maximum values of -6.3 dB and -20.5 dB, respectively, up to 30 GHz.

산불의 확산형태 중 지표화 확산을 방지하기 위해 대표적인 진화방법으로는 방화선을 구축하는 것이다. 지표화는 산림의 연료중 낙엽층, 잔가지 등 지표면의 연료층이 열분해되면서 확산되기 때문에 방화선 구축을 통해 연료층을 제거하면 지표화 확산을 저지할 수 있다. 하지만 방화선 구축 폭에 따라 산불확산 방지 효과가 크게 달라질 수 있으므로 적정한 방화선 구축 폭을 설정하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 적정 방화선 구축 폭을 살펴보기 위해 풍동시험장치를 이용하여 풍속 0, 1, 2, 3m/s조건에서 지표화 화염으로부터 이격 거리에 따른 온도측정과 함께 방화선 구축 폭에 따른 확산가능 여부를 평가하였다. 50cm 폭의 소나무 낙엽에 대한 풍속별 지표화 방화선 구축 실험결과, 풍속 3m/s에서 화염으로부터 소나무 낙엽의 착화온도인 $311^{\circ}C$에 도달하는 거리가 약 0.65m로 나타났고 풍속이 낮을수록 착화온도 도달거리가 줄어드는 것을 알 수 있다. 실제 0.6m 방화선 구축의 경우, 화염이 계속 확산되었고 0.65m 이상의 방화선 구축시에는 화염확산이 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 향후, 수치해석을 이용한 열유속 평가 결과와 함께 본 연구의 실험결과와 비교평가 함으로써 지표화 산불확산 방지를 위한 적정 방화선 구축 폭 산정을 평가하고자 한다.

Effective monitoring and maintenance operation of towers, power lines and other defects to ensure high quality and reliability of electric power supplied to customers is becoming one of the most important tasks of today's power industry. One specific technology that has the potential to automate the entire surveillance process is unmanned aerial vehicles. In this paper, we propose a new power line extraction method using the directivity of a power line and Hough transform to detect efficiently power lines from thermal aerial images. In simulation results for several aerial images, the proposed method shows good performance in extracting power line detection.
