In this study, it was intended to replace the existing plane parallel ionization chamber, which requires cross-calibration in electron beam treatment. The semiconductor compounds HgI₂ was fabricated as detector, and the characteristics of HgI₂ detector for the 6, 9 and 12 MeV electron beam was analyzed in the linear accelerator. It was also intended to evaluate the possibility of substitution with existing detectors and their applicability as electron beam dosimetry and to use them as a basic study of the development of electronic beam dosimeter. As a result of reproducibility, RSD was 0.4246%, 0.5054%, and 0.8640% at 6, 9, and 12 MeV energy, respectively, indicating that the output signal was stable. As a result of the linearity, the R² was 0.9999 at 6 MeV, 0.9996 at 9 MeV, and 0.9997 at 12 MeV showed that the output signal is proportional to HgI₂ as the dose is increased. The HgI₂ detector of this study is highly applicable to electron beam measurement, and it may be used as a basic research on electron beam detection.

The effects of the melt stoichiometry on the concentration of electron and hole traps formed by intrinsic defects of LEC GaAs were studied employing DLTS measurement technique. The concentration of EL2 were varied from $10^{16}cm^{-3}$ to $10^{11}cm^{-3}$ when the arsenic atomic fraction in the melt ([As]/{[As]+[Ga]} varied from 0.5 to 0.42. Specifically, when the fraction falls below 0.46, the 띠2 concentration start to decrease sharply. For 68meV and 77/200meV traps, their concentration increase inversely with the arsenic atomic fraction and have the values in the range of TEX>$10^{15}cm^{-3}$ and $10^{14}cm^{-3}$, respectively. It is, therefore, concluded that these hole traps originated from the intrinsic acceptor defects including $GS^{AS}$.

Cross sections and recoil properties have been measured for the fragments produced in the interaction of silver with 40 MeV/nucleon $^{14}N$ ions using off-line ${\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy. The data were used to obtain the isobaric-yield distribution, the mass yield distribution, and the fractional momentum transfer. The values of forward-to-backward ratios were measured to be very large, indicating that substantial momentum transfer occurs at this energy regime. The results are compared with other studies of the interaction of silver with intermediate-energy heavy ions.

High quality CdTe single crystal for the solar cell fabrication was grown by vertical Bridgman method. The etch pits patterns of (111) surfaces of CdTe etched by Nakagawa solution was observed the (111)A compesed of Cd atoms with typical triangle etch pits of pyramid mode. From the photoluminescence measurement on (111)A, we observed free exciton ($E_{x}$) existing only high quality crystal and neutal acceptor bound exciton ($A^{0}$,X) having very strong peak intensity. Then, the full width at half maximum and binding energy of neutral acceptor bound exciton were 7 meV and 5.9 meV, respectively. By Haynes rule, an activation enery of impurity was 59 meV. Therefore, the origins on impurity level acting as a neutral acceptor were associated Ag or Cu elements.

Proton irradiation technology was used for improvement of switching characteristics of the PT-IGBT. The proton irradiation was carried out at 5.56 MeV energy from the back side of processed wafers and at 2.39 MeV energy from the front side of the wafers. The on-state and off-state I-V characteristics and switching properties of the device were analyzed and compared with those of un-irradiated device and e-beam irradiated device which was conventional method for minority carrier lifetime reduction. The proton irradiated device by 5.56 MeV energy was superior to e-beam irradiated device for the on-state and off-state I-V characteristics, nevertheless turn-off time of proton irradiated device was superior to that of the e-beam irradiated device.

The full energy peak efficiency of a hyper pure germanium (HPGe) detector was calibrated in a wide energy range from 0.06 to 11 MeV. Both the experimental technique and the Monte Carlo method were used for the efficiency calibration. The measurement was performed using the standard radioisotopes in the low energy region of $60{\sim}1408$ keV, which was further extended up to 11 MeV by using the $^{14}N(n,r)\;and\;^{35}Cl(n,r)$ reactions. The GEANT Monte Carlo code was used for efficiency calculation. The calculated efficiency had the same dependency on the r-ray energy with the measurement, and the discrepancy between the calculation and the measurement was minimized by fine-tuning of the detector geometry. From the calculated result, the efficiency curve of the HPGe detector was reliably determined particularly in the high energy region above several MeV, where the number of measured efficiency points is relatively small despite the wide energy region. The calculated efficiency agreed with the measurement within about $7\%$. In addition to the efficiency calculation, the origin of the local minimum near 600 keV on the efficiency curve was analyzed as a general characteristics of a HPGe detector.

Agrocybe aegerita is Hymenomycetes fungus belonging to the order Agaricales and family of Bolbitiaceae. Much less is known about liquid culture of Agrocybe aegerita. Thus, the present study was to investigate the liquid cultural characteristics of Agrocybe aegerita my-celium. The optimal medium for the mycelial growth and density was ME medium, optimal tem-perature and initial pH were 25$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$ and 5.5, respectively. And optimal culture time for mycelial growth was 12 days. The modified optimal medium compositions were dextrin 3% (w/v), yeast extract 2% (w/w), MgSO$_4$0.05% (w/v), and KH$_2$PO$_4$0.15% (w/v). Under optimal culture conditions, the mycelial growth of modified optimal medium was higher than that of ME medium.

A microchip electrophoresis (ME) method was developed using a programmed field strength gradients (PFSG) for the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) based fast identification of cattle breeds. Four different Korean cattle (Hanwoo) and Holstein SNP markers amplified by allele-specific polymerase chain reaction were separated in a glass microchip filled with 0.5% poly(ethyleneoxide) ($M_r$ = 8 000 000) by PFSG as follows: 750 V/cm for 0 - 14 s, 166.7 V/cm for 14 - 31 s, 83.3 V/cm for 31 - 46 s, and 750 V/cm for 46 - 100 s. The cattle breeds were clearly distinguished within 45 s. The ME-PFSG method was 7 times and 5 times faster than the constant electric field ME method and the capillary electrophoresis- PFSG method, respectively, with a high resolving power ($R_s$ = 5.05 - 9.98). The proposed methodology could be a powerful tool for the fast and simultaneous determination of SNP markers for various cattle breeds with high accuracy.

This study derives the relative cross-section for the natW(p,xn)176Re nuclear reaction by measuring the gamma rays generated from the nuclear reaction with natural tungsten using a 100 MeV linear accelerator of the Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex in the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. In general, research on isotopes with a short half-life always shows a tendency that the intensity of radioactivity decreases rapidly within a short period of time, making it very difficult to measure itself. In particular, 176Re is one of the relatively short radionuclides with a half-life of 5.3 minutes. In this study, 109.08 keV gamma rays generated from the 176Re isotope having such a short half-life were measured using a high-purity Ge detector(HPGe detector). The obtained relative measurements were the results in the 8 to 14 MeV proton energy domain published by Richard G. in 1967, and the TENDL-2019 value, which was the result of A. J. Koning in 2019, which evaluated the nuclear reaction cross-section by calculation based on this comparative analysis was performed. The results of this study are expected to be usefully applied to the design of nuclear fusion reactor which is known as future energy sources, elements ratio for the nuclear synthesis of astrophysics.

This paper is studied micro-defect characteristics by phosphorus 1MeV ion implantation and Rs, SRP, SIMS, XTEM for the RTA process was measured and simulated. As the dose is higher, the Rs is lower. When the dose are $1{\times}10^{13}/cm^2,\;5{\times}10^{13}/cm^2,\;1{\times}10^{14}/cm^2$, the Rp are $1.15{\mu}m,\;1.15{\mu},\;1.10{\mu}m$ respectively. As the RTA time is longer, the maximum concentration position is deeper from the surface and the concentration is lower. Before the RTA was done, we didn't observe any defect. But after the RTA process was done, we could observe the RTA process changed the micro-defects into the secondary defects. The simulation using the buried layer and connecting layer structure was performed. As results, the connecting layer had more effect than the buried layer to latch-up immune. Trigger current was more $0.6mA/{\mu}m$ and trigger voltage was 6V at dose $1{\times}10^{14}/cm^2$ and the energy 500KeV of connecting layer Lower connecting layer dose, latch-up immune characteristics was better.
