Silver nitrate ($AgNO_3$) powder was mixed into a reformed pitch precursor. Then, the silver-containing pitch was melt spun to form round and "C" shape fibers. A wire mesh was inserted prior to the nozzle to improve the spinnability of the silvercontaining precursor pitch. Silver particles in the carbon fibers (CFs) were detected by XRD and TEM. These tests showed that silver particles were uniformly distributed and the total amount of silver remained constant during stabilization and carbonization. Next, the silver-containing CFs were activated by steam diluted in nitrogen gas. Silver particles accelerated the activation rate, but the specific surface areas of the silver-containing ACFs were similar to those of non-silver containing ACFs at the same burn-off levels. The specific surface area of the C-shaped activated carbon fibers was larger than that of the round activated carbon fibers. The likely reason is that the surface area of a C-shaped CF is about two times larger than that of a round CF when equivalent cross-sectional areas are compared. A small amount of silver particles in the periphery of the CFs was removed during the activation, but the remainder of silver was stayed within the ACFs.

Among the radioactive wastes generated from the nuclear power plant, a radioactive nuclide such as $^{129}I$ is classified as a difficult-to-measure (DTM) nuclide, owing to its low specific activity. Therefore, the establishment of an analytical procedure, including a chemical separation for $^{129}I$ as a representative DTM, becomes essential. In this report, the adsorption and recovery rate were measured by adding $^{125}I$ as a radio-isotopic tracer ($t_{1/2}$ = 60.14 d) to the simulation sample, in order to measure the activity concentration of $^{129}I$ in a pressurized-water reactor primary coolant. The optimum condition for the maximum recovery yield of iodine on the anion exchange resins (AG1 x2, 50-100 mesh, $Cl^-$ form) was found to be at pH 7. In this report, the effect of the boron content in a pressurized-water reactor primary coolant on the separation process of $^{129}I$ was examined, as was the effect of $^3H$ on the measurement of the activity of iodine. As a result, no influence of the boron content and of the simultaneous $^3H$ presence was found with activity concentrations of $^3H$ lower than 50 Bq/mL, and with a boron concentration of less than 2,000 ${\mu}g/mL$.

연구 목적: 본 연구의 목적은 치과용 임플란트 나사산 디자인이 변연골 응력에 미치는 영향에 정량적인 분석을 하고자 한다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 외경 4.1 mm (경부직경 3.5 mm), 매식부 길이 10 m인 표준형 ITI 임플란트 시스템(ITI Dental Implant System; Straumann AG, Waldenburg, Switzerland)을 기본모델(대조모델)로 채택하고, 그 몸체의 나사산은 다른 임플란트 시스템에 채택되고 있는 삼각형, 사각형, buttres형 디자인을 가지는 가상의 해석모델을 4종 만들었다. 해석모델은 나사산 형태와 크기에 따라 (1) 모델 A (작은 삼각형 나사산), (2) 모델 B (큰 삼각형 나사산), (3) 모델 C (buttres형 나사산), 및 (4) 모델 D (사각형 나사산)로 구분하였다. 유한요소 모델링과 해석에는 NISA II/DISPLAY III (Engineering Mechanics Research Corporation, Troy, MI, USA) 프로그램을 사용하였다. Mesh 구성에는 NKTP type 34형 solid 요소(4각형 축대칭 요소, 요소당 절점수 8개)를 사용하여 임플란트 장축과 평행한 축대칭 하중은 물론 장축과 경사각을 갖는 비축대칭 하중조건을 모두 해석할 수 있도록 하였다. 임플란트의 표면으로부터 각각 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 mm 떨어진 위치에 5개의 응력관찰점(stress monitoring point)을 설정 하여 기록된 응력 값으로부터 회귀분석을 통하여 변연골 응력 최대값(peak stress)을 정량화하였다. 해석에 사용한 하중 조건은 2가지로, 임플란트 축에 평행한 수직하중 100 N과 임플란트 축과 $30^{\circ}$를 이루는 경사력 100 N 조건이었다. 결과: 임플란트 경부와 접하고 있는 인접 변연골에 응력집중현상이 보이고 있었으며, 그 양상은 임플란트 나사산 디자인과 무관하게 거의 유사하게 관찰되었다. 수직력 100 N 조건에서 산출된 변연골 최대응력값은 대조모델과 실험모델 A, B, C, D에서 7.84, 6.45, 5.96, 6.85, 5.39 MPa이었고, 경사력 조건에서는 각각 29.18, 26.45, 25.12, 27.37, 23.58 MPa이었다. 결론: 임플란트 나사산의 디자인은 변연골의 응력에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소이다.

Fully sealed field emission display in size of 4.5 inch has been fabricated using single-wall carbon nanotubes-organic vehicle com-posite. The fabricated display were fully scalable at low temperature below 415$^{\circ}C$ and CNTs were vertically aligned using paste squeeze and surface rubbing techniques. The turn-on fields of 1V/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and field emis-sion current of 1.5mA at 3V/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ (J=90${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/$\textrm{cm}^2$)were observed. Brightness of 1800cd/$m^2$ at 3.7V/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ was observed on the entire area of 4.5-inch panel from the green phosphor-ITO glass. The fluctuation of the current was found to be about 7% over a 4.5-inch cath-ode area. This reliable result enables us to produce large area full-color flat panel dis-play in the near future. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted much attention because of their unique elec-trical properties and their potential applica-tions [1, 2]. Large aspect ratio of CNTs together with high chemical stability. ther-mal conductivity, and high mechanical strength are advantageous for applications to the field emitter [3]. Several results have been reported on the field emissions from multi-walled nanotubes (MWNTs) and single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) grown from arc discharge [4, 5]. De Heer et al. have reported the field emission from nan-otubes aligned by the suspension-filtering method. This approach is too difficult to be fully adopted in integration process. Recently, there have been efforts to make applications to field emission devices using nanotubes. Saito et al. demonstrated a car-bon nanotube-based lamp, which was oper-ated at high voltage (10KV) [8]. Aproto-type diode structure was tested by the size of 100mm $\times$ 10mm in vacuum chamber [9]. the difficulties arise from the arrangement of vertically aligned nanotubes after the growth. Recently vertically aligned carbon nanotubes have been synthesized using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition(CVD) [6, 7]. Yet, control of a large area synthesis is still not easily accessible with such approaches. Here we report integra-tion processes of fully sealed 4.5-inch CNT-field emission displays (FEDs). Low turn-on voltage with high brightness, and stabili-ty clearly demonstrate the potential applica-bility of carbon nanotubes to full color dis-plays in near future. For flat panel display in a large area, car-bon nanotubes-based field emitters were fabricated by using nanotubes-organic vehi-cles. The purified SWNTs, which were syn-thesized by dc arc discharge, were dispersed in iso propyl alcohol, and then mixed with on organic binder. The paste of well-dis-persed carbon nanotubes was squeezed onto the metal-patterned sodalime glass throuhg the metal mesh of 20${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size and subse-quently heat-treated in order to remove the organic binder. The insulating spacers in thickness of 200${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ are inserted between the lower and upper glasses. The Y\ulcornerO\ulcornerS:Eu, ZnS:Cu, Al, and ZnS:Ag, Cl, phosphors are electrically deposited on the upper glass for red, green, and blue colors, respectively. The typical sizes of each phosphor are 2~3 micron. The assembled structure was sealed in an atmosphere of highly purified Ar gas by means of a glass frit. The display plate was evacuated down to the pressure level of 1$\times$10\ulcorner Torr. Three non-evaporable getters of Ti-Zr-V-Fe were activated during the final heat-exhausting procedure. Finally, the active area of 4.5-inch panel with fully sealed carbon nanotubes was pro-duced. Emission currents were character-ized by the DC-mode and pulse-modulating mode at the voltage up to 800 volts. The brightness of field emission was measured by the Luminance calorimeter (BM-7, Topcon).
