M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra of hexagonal $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ single crystals were studied at various temperatures (4-300 K). It was found that the spin states in Fe atoms were parallel to the ${\gamma}$-ray's direction into a single crystal along the caxis. The location of the Fe ion in the 2b site is unusual in an oxide structure and has strong anisotropic lattice vibrations. Moreover, at room temperature, the zero absorption lines of the Fe ions at the 2b site were observed due to fast diffusion motion in a double well atomic potential. The two Fe ions of the single crystal mainly enter into the sites in the mirror plane of the trigonalbipyramidal structure.

We investigate the microstructural and magnetic property changes of $DyH_2$, $Cu+DyH_2$, and $Al+DyH_2$ diffusion-treated NdFeB sintered magnets with the post annealing (PA) temperature. The coercivity of all the diffusion-treated magnets increases with increasing heat treatment temperature except at $910^{\circ}C$, where it decreases slightly. Moreover, at $880^{\circ}C$, the coercivity increases by 3.8 kOe in Cu and 4.7 kOe in Al-mixed $DyH_2$-coated magnets, whereas this increase is relatively low (3.0 kOe) in the magnet coated with only $DyH_2$. Both Cu and Al have an almost similar effect on the coercivity improvement, particularly over the heat treatment temperature range of $790-880^{\circ}C$. The diffusivity and diffusion depth of Dy increases in those magnets that are treated with Cu or Al-mixed $DyH_2$, mainly because of the comparatively easy diffusion path provided by Cu and Al owing to their solubility in the Nd-rich grain boundary phase. The formation of a highly anisotropic $(Nd,\;Dy)_2Fe_{14}B$ phase layer, which acts as the shell in the core-shell-type structure so as to prevent the reverse domain movement, is the cause of enhanced coercivity of diffusion-treated Nd-Fe-B magnets.

$PbTiO_3$ thin films have been formed by rapid thermal annealing(RTA) of $TiO_2$/Pb/$TiO_2$ multilayer films deposited on Si wafers by RF sputtering. Based on the optimal depositon conditions of TiO2 and Pb, $TiO_2$/Pb/$TiO_2$ three layers were deposited for 900$\AA$ each. These films were subjected to RTA process at the temperatures ranging from $400^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$ for 30 seconds in air, and were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy to investigate the phases and the microstructures. As a result, perovskite $PbTiO_3$ phases was obtained above $500^{\circ}C$ with the trace of unreacted $TiO_2$. RBS analysis revealed the anisotropic behavior of diffusion that the diffusivity of Pb to the bottom $TiO_2$ layer was faster than that of Pb to the top $TiO_2$ layer. The amorphous Pb-silicate was formed between film and Si substrate due to the diffusion of Pb, but Pb-silicate existed locally at the interface and the amount of that phase was very small. Therefore the effect of bottom $TiO_2$ layer as a diffusion barrier was confirmed. $PbTiO_3$ films formed by current technique showed a relative dielectric constant of 60, and the maximum breakdown field reached 170kV/cm.

In clinical research using medical images, the image segmentation is one of the most important processes. Especially, the hippocampal atrophy is helpful for the clinical Alzheimer diagnosis as a specific marker of the progress of Alzheimer. In order to measure hippocampus volume exactly, segmentation of the hippocampus is essential. However, the hippocampus has some features like relatively low contrast, low signal-to-noise ratio, discreted boundary in MRI images, and these features make it difficult to segment hippocampus. To solve this problem, firstly, We selected region of interest from an experiment image, subtracted a original image from the negative image of the original image, enhanced contrast, and applied anisotropic diffusion filtering and gaussian filtering as preprocessing. Finally, We performed an image segmentation using two level set methods. Through a variety of approaches for the validation of proposed hippocampus segmentation method, We confirmed that our proposed method improved the rate and accuracy of the segmentation. Consequently, the proposed method is suitable for segmentation of the area which has similar features with the hippocampus. We believe that our method has great potential if successfully combined with other research findings.

Anisotropic particles have been issued in various fields due to their unique physical properties. Herein, a novel dynamic phase separation method (DPS) is introduced to fabricate anisotropic acorn-like nanoparticles. DPS consists of two dynamic conditions; solvent evaporation and nonsolvent induced precipitation. The bottom layer is controlled by feeding the water as a non-solvent diluent, and the phase separation of the upper layer relies on the diffusion and evaporation of a volatile good solvent. At this condition, the acorn-like particles were fabricated. Under a closed box filled with water (spontaneous phase separation), monodisperse polystyrene (PS) particles were synthesized. At the coexistence between DPS and spontaneous phase separation, the sizes of cap and particle were changed. Also, the volume of PS solutions influences on the particle shape. Since the unique structures could be utilized into various applications, if advanced techniques such as membrane-based controlled water feeding is developed, monodisperse acorn-like particles could be tuned.

In this paper, we propose an automatic left ventricle segmentation method in computed tomography angiography (CTA) using separating energy function. First, we smooth the images by applying anisotropic diffusion filter to remove noise. Secondly, the volume of interest (VOI) is detected by using k-means clustering. Thirdly, we divide the left and right heart with split energy function. Finally, we extract only left ventricle from left and right heart with optimizing cost function including orientation term.

The purpose of extaction of edges of buildings is an extraction of 3-dimensional imformation. The performance of an exact extraction of edges of buildings using several classic algorithms was not so good. In this study we merged several exposed algorithms-----split-and-merge, anisotropic diffusion, modified canny operation, least mean sqare. Results of this extraction algorithm show better performance than any other detection algorithms of edges of buildings.

Some multidimentional generalizations of the Fokker-Planck Equation used by Friedrich and Peinke for description of a turbulent cascade was solved by A.A.Donkov, A.D.Donkov, and G.I.Grancharova. The solutions are two types, isotropic and anisotropic diffusion case. We introduce their methods to solve the Equation and solutions. Furthermore we get the more generalized exact solution as combination of two cases and plot to compare those to experimental results for the isotropic case.

In this paper, an electrostatic plate resonator with four corrugated bridges and another with four flat ones have been fabricated and tested by the electrostatic actuation. The resonators consist of one rigid plate and four bridges. Boron diffusion process and anisotropic etch process with EPW are mainly used to fabricate the resonators. The dynamic characteristics of the fabricated resonators are obtained by measuring the velocity of the center of the rigid plate using a laser vibrometer. The results show that the deflection of the resonator with the corrugated bridges is larger than the resonator with the flat ones. It has been confirmed that the corrugated structure releases the residual tensile stress in the bridges resulted from the diffusion process.
