  • 최근 차세대 영상 기술로 홀로그래피가 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 컴퓨터를 이용한 홀로그램 생성 방법(computer generated hologram, CGH)을 많이 사용하고 있는데 CGH는 많은 연산량이 요구되기 때문에 실시간의 CGH를 위해서 FPGA나 GPU를 이용한 연산 방법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 하드웨어를 기반으로 하여 구현할 경우에 내부 시스템의 비트 제한으로 인하여 S/W와 같은 품질을 얻을 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 품질의 저하를 최소화하면서 하드웨어의 자원을 최대한 감소시킬 수 있는 하드웨어 비트 너비를 분석하여 가이드라인을 제시하고자 한다.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of high dietary methionine (Met) consumption on plasma and hepatic oxidative stress and dyslipidemia in chronic ethanol fed rats. MATERIALS/METHODS: Male Wistar rats were fed control or ethanol-containing liquid diets supplemented without (E group) or with DL-Met at 0.6% (EM1 group) or 0.8% (EM2 group) for five weeks. Plasma aminothiols, lipids, malondialdehyde (MDA), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase were measured. Hepatic folate, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), and S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) were measured. RESULTS: DL-Met supplementation was found to increase plasma levels of homocysteine (Hcy), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and MDA compared to rats fed ethanol alone and decrease plasma ALT. However, DL-Met supplementation did not significantly change plasma levels of HDL-cholesterol, cysteine, cysteinylglycine, and glutathione. In addition, DL-Met supplementation increased hepatic levels of folate, SAM, SAH, and SAM:SAH ratio. Our data showed that DL-Met supplementation can increase plasma oxidative stress and atherogenic effects by elevating plasma Hcy, TG, and TC in ethanol-fed rats. CONCLUSION: The present results demonstrate that Met supplementation increases plasma oxidative stress and atherogenic effects by inducing dyslipidemia and hyperhomocysteinemia in ethanol-fed rats.

  • Maxillary sinus lift and bone graft are used to reconstruct atrophic maxilla molar area for endosseous dental implants. Many different grafting materials and techniques can be used for maxillary sinus bone graft. Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ has been proposed as bone substitute and successfully utilized as osteoconductive filler. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous material with many growth factors, such as PDGF, TGF-$\beta$, IGF, VEGF, facilitating bone healing process. And Platelet poor plasma (PPP) is the by-product in procedure of producing PRP. Six rabbits were used as experimental animal. Both maxillary sinus were grafted with Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ and PRP, and Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ and PPP. Rabbits were sacrificed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. The grafting sites were evaluated by histomorphometric analysis. As a result, using PRP showed excellent bone formation in the early stage, but no further significant effect after that. In late stage, the ability of bone formation of using PRP was even worse than using PPP. The further studies need to be considered in this case.

  • $O_2$ 플라즈마를 이용한 표면처리 공정이 Bio-FET (biologically sensitive field-effect transistor)에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여, SOI (Silicon-on-Insulator) wafer와 sSOI (strained- Si-on-Insulator) wafer를 이용하여 pseudo-MOSFET을 제작하고 $O_2$ 플라즈마를 이용하여 표면처리를 진행하였다. 제작된 시료들은 back gated metal contact junction 방식으로 측정되었다. $I_D-V_G$ 특성과 field effect mobility 특성의 관찰을 통하여 $O_2$ 플라즈마 표면처리에 따른 각 시료들의 전기적 특성 변화에 대하여 관찰하였다. 그리고 $O_2$ 플라즈마 표면처리 과정에서 플라즈마에 의한 손상을 받은 시료들은 2% 수소희석가스 ($H_2/N_2$)를 이용한 후속 열처리 공정을 진행한 후 전기적 특성이 향상되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이는 수소희석가스를 이용한 후속 열처리 공정을 통하여 산화막과 Si 사이의 계면 준위와 산화막 내부의 전하 포획 준위를 감소시켰기 때문이다.

  • [ $Al_2O_3$ ]기판을 산소 plasma 또는 수소 plasma로 표면 처리한 후 그 위에 plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy 방법으로 성장된 ZnO 박막의 구조적 특성과 광학적 발광 특성을 체계적으로 조사하였다. 제작된 ZnO 박막은 high resolution X-ray diffraction 측정과 atomic force microscope를 사용하여 구조적 특성과 표면 특성을 관찰하였으며, photoluminescence (PL) 측정을 통하여 엑시톤과 관련된 광학적 전이특성을 온도에 따라 조사하였다. free exciton, bound exciton, 그리고 이들의 phonon replica들의 특성을 온도에 따라 분석하였으며, 산소 plasma로 표면 처리한 시료의 PL 세기가 수소 plasma 표면 처리한 시료의 PL 세기보다 상당히 커짐을 관찰하였다. 산소 plasma로 처리된 기판 위에 성장된 ZnO 시료가 수소 plasma로 처리된 경우보다 우수한 구조적 특성과 광학적 특성을 보였는데, 이는 산소 plasma로 표면 처리함으로써 산소 공공(oxygen vacancy)과 같은 결함 구조가 적게 생성되고 좋은 격자 상수 일치를 보여주므로 구조적 특징과 발광 특징이 향상되는 것으로 해석되었다.

  • Plasma medicine is an upcoming research area that has attracted the scientists to explore more deeply the utility of plasma. So, apart from the treating biomaterials and tissues with plasma, we have studied the effect of plasma with different feeding gases on modification of biomolecules. Additionally, we have checked the action of nanosecond pulsed plasma on the biomolecules. We have checked the plasma action on proteins ((Hemoglobin (Hb) Myoglobin (Mb) and lysoenzyme), calf thymus DNA and amino acids. The structural changes or structural modification of proteins and DNA have been studied using circular dichroism (CD), dynamic light scattering (DLS), gel electrophoresis, protein oxidation test, UV-vis spectroscopy and 1D NMR, while Liquid Chromatograph/Capillary Electrophoresis-Mass Spectrometer(LC/CE-MS) based qualitative bio-analysis have been used to study the modification of amino acids. We have also shown the effect of NaCl and ionic liquid on the formation of OH radicals using electron spin resonance and fluorescence techinques.

  • The use of plasma has increased in bio-application field in recent years. Particularly, water treated by arc discharge or atmospheric pressure plasma has been actively utilized in bio-industry. In this study, we have developed a plasma activated water generating system. For this system, two kinds of plasma sources; dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma and arc discharge plasma have been used. The discharge energy was calculated using the breakdown voltage and current, and the emission spectrum was measured to investigate the generated reactive species. We also analyzed the amount of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in water using the chemical methods and nitric oxide sensor. Finally, the influence of plasma generated reactive species on the germination and growth of spinach (Spinacia oleracea) was investigated. Spinach is a green leafy vegetable that contains a large amount of various physiologically active organic compounds. However, it is characterized with a low seed germination rate.

  • We have characterized the parametric and functional properties of live cell and cancer cell according to plasma treatment conditions using Atmospheric Pressure (AP) Plasma with uniquely designed low temperature arc-free unit. AP plasma system showed very highly efficient capabilities of reacting and interfacing directly with live and cancer cells. The parametric results with the types of gases, applied power, applied gap, and process times on cells will be presented in accordance with functional studies of the works. The growth of cancer cells is directly influenced by AP plasma exposure with evaluating plasma conditions in several human cancer cells and understanding how plasma exposure alters molecular signaling pathways. The cells exhibit a slower or faster growth rates compared with untreated cells, depending on the cell types. These results strongly support the conclusion that alterations in one or more of each gene are responsible, at least in part, for plasma-induced apoptosis in cancer cells. In addition, it also will be presented that AP plasma has an important role for the improvement of sensor performance due to excellent interface property between enzyme and metal electrode for bio sensor manufacturing process.

  • We are currently conducting studies on culturing and biocompatibility assessment of various cells such as neural stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells(IPS cells) on carbon nanotube (CNT), on nerve regeneration electrodes, and on silicon wafers with a focus on developing nerve integrated CNT based bio devices for interfacing with living organisms, in order to develop brain-machine interfaces (BMI). In addition, we are carried out the chemical modification of carbon nanotube (mainly SWCNTs)-based bio-nanosensors by the plasma ion irradiation (plasma activation) method, and provide a characteristic evaluation of a bio-nanosensor using bovine serum albumin (BSA)/anti-BSA binding and oligonucleotide hybridization. On the other hand, the researches in the case of "novel plasma" have been widely conducted in the fields of chemistry, solid physics, and nanomaterial science. From the above-mentioned background, we are conducting basic experiments on direct irradiation of body tissues and cells using a micro-spot atmospheric pressure plasma source. The device is a coaxial structure having a tungsten wire installed inside a glass capillary, and a grounded ring electrode wrapped on the outside. The conditions of plasma generation are as follows: applied voltage: 5-9 kV, frequency: 1-3 kHz, helium (He) gas flow: 1-1.5 L/min, and plasma irradiation time: 1-300 sec. The experiment was conducted by preparing a culture medium containing mouse fibroblasts (NIH3T3) on a culture dish. A culture dish irradiated with plasma was introduced into a $CO_2$-incubator. The small animals used in the experiment involving plasma irradiation into living tissue were rat, rabbit, and pick and are deeply anesthetized with the gas anesthesia. According to the dependency of cell numbers against the plasma irradiation time, when only He gas was flowed, the growth of cells was inhibited as the floatation of cells caused by gas agitation inside the culture was promoted. On the other hand, there was no floatation of cells and healthy growth was observed when plasma was irradiated. Furthermore, in an experiment testing the effects of plasma irradiation on rats that were artificially given burn wounds, no evidence of electric shock injuries was found in the irradiated areas. In fact, the observed evidence of healing and improvements of the burn wounds suggested the presence of healing effects due to the growth factors in the tissues. Therefore, it appears that the interaction due to ion/radicalcollisions causes a substantial effect on the proliferation of growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF), nerve growth factor (NGF), and transforming growth factor (TGF) that are present in the cells.
