In this study, microstructure and electrical conductivity of {(G $d_2$ $O_3$)$_{0.75}$( $Y_2$ $O_3$)$_{0.25}$}$_{x}$ (Ce $O_2$)$_{1-x}$ (0.01$\leq$x$\leq$0.25) was investigated as a function of composition x. GYO addition(x) increased the bulk density and G $d_2$ $O_3$ was found to be monoclinic at x>0.15. From the change of the lattice parameter with the addition(x), GYO solution limit for ceria was exceeded in the range of x=0.05 to 0.09. Thermal expansion coefficient(15~17$\times$10$^{-6}$ $^{\circ}C$) of GYC samples at x=0.01 to 0.07 was higher in value than that of 8YSZ(10.8$\times$10$^{-6}$ $^{\circ}C$). The electrical conductivity of GYC samples at x=0.05 showed the maximum(0.01S/cm) in value at 1073K which was 2 times higher than that of 8YSZ. The activation energy for the electrical conduction was determined to be 0.60eV in the temperature range of 1073K.3K..3K.

Since its introduction, low level lasers have been utilized in many varied clinical applications for the treatment of musculoskeletal and body surface lesions. Due to the laser beams specific characteristic-coherence, monochromaticity and unidirectionality, without adverse reaction with neighbouring tissue, physicians have used it with relative ease. We observed accelerating effects of healing process of some intractable skin wound, improvement of graft survival, as well as reduction of pain on ulcerating tissues, by treating twice weekly with low level Helium-Neon(He-Ne) and Infrared(IR) laser. The laser's energy density was set at $1\;J/cm^2$ and a fixed frequency of 600 Hz by continuous scanning. Irradiating time was calculated according to the cross diameter of the wound. Further clinical work will be required to evaluate the accelerated healing processes by biostimulating mechanisms of laser ray, especially for the intractable(diabetic) skin ulceration.

자계 유도 고상결정화(FESPC)를 이용하여 제작한 다결정실리콘(poly-Si) 박막 트랜지스터(TFT)는 비정질 실리콘 박막 트랜지스터(a-Si:H TFT)보다 뛰어난 전기적 특성과 우수한 안정성을 지닌다. $V_{DS}$ = -0.1 V에서 채널 폭과 길이가 각각 $5\;{\mu}m$, $7\;{\mu}m$인 P형 TFT의 이동도(${\mu}$)와 문턱 전압($V_{TH}$)은 각각 $31.98\;cm^2$/Vs, -6.14 V 이다. FESPC TFT는 일반 poly-Si TFT에 비해 채널 내 결정 경계 숫자가 많아서 상대적으로 열악한 특성을 가진다. 채널 길이 $5\;{\mu}m$인 TFT의 $V_{TH}$는 채널 길이 $18\;{\mu}m$ 소자의 $V_{TH}$보다 1.36V 작지만, 일반적으로 큰 값이다. 이 현상은 채널에 다수의 결정 경계가 존재하고, 수평 전계가 크기 때문이다. 수평 전계가 증가하면, 결정 경계의 전위 장벽 높이가 감소하게 되는데, 이는 DIGBL 효과이다. ${\mu}$의 증가에 따라서, 드레인 전류가 증가하고 $V_{TH}$은 감소한다. 활성화 에너지($E_a$)는 드레인 전압과 결정 경계의 수에 따라 변하는데, 드레인 전압이 크거나 결정 경계의 수가 감소하면 $E_a$는 감소한다. $E_a$가 감소하면 $V_{TH}$가 감소한다. 유리기판 위의 FESPC를 이용한 P형 poly-Si TFT의 $V_{TH}$는 채널의 길이와 $V_{DS}$에 영향을 받는다. 증가한 수평 전계가 결정 경계에서 에너지 장벽을 낮추는 효과를 일으키기 때문이다.

본 논문에서는 p-type 고분자 물질인 P3HT (Poly-3-hexylthiophene)를 잉크젯 프린팅 방식으로 활성화층을 적층함으로써 Organic thin film transistor를 제작하여 이에 대한 특성을 연구하였다. Piezoelectric 방식의 잉크젯 프린팅을 이용하여 P3HT single drop jetting 시 두께 $150{\sim}200{\AA}$, 직경 약 70 ~ 80 um정도의 drop profile을 얻을 수 있었다. P3HT의 solvent로서 Chlorobenzene을 사용하여 농도 약 0.5 wt.%의 Ink-jet용 ink를 제작하여 이를 Channel Width 37, 236 um 크기의 Au 전극 위에 jetting 하여 각각의 특성을 측정하였다. 상기 실험은 상온의 외부환경에서 실시되었으며 실험 결과 최대 ${\mu}=1{\times}10^{-2}\;cm^2/Vsec$, $I_{on}/I_{off}=10^3{\sim}10^4$ 정도로서 off current가 높은 편이나 이동도 측면에서는 다른 방법의 박막 증착 실험결과와 비교할 때 동등 수준의 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Cu는 Al에 비하여 낮은 저항(1.8 $\mu$$\Omega$-cm)과 높은 EM 저항성을 가지고 있어 미래의 고속 ULSI 배선물질로 그 중요성이 더욱 증가되고 있으며, 현재까지 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 이러한 방법들을 고려하여 CVD Cu의 문제점인 낮은 성장률의 개선과 Cu 박막의 특성을 향상하고자 수소 플라즈마 공정을 이용하여 plasma 전처리가 초기 Cu 핵생성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 장비는 Cu RPCVD/MOCVD이다. 초기 Cu 핵의 생성에 있어서의 수소 플라즈마의 효과를 조사하기 위하여 다음과 같은 3가지의 방법으로 행하였다. 첫 번째는 Cu 박막 형성에서 플라즈마를 사용하지 않은 방법, 두 번째는 플라즈마 전처리공정을 행한 뒤, Cu 박막 증착시 플라즈마는 사용하지 않은 방법, 세 번재는 플라즈마 전처리공저을 행한 뒤 Cu 증착시에도 플라즈마를 사용한 방법이다. 이 세가지 방법의 핵생성 차이를 분석하기 위해서 각각 10초, 20초, 40초 증착시킨 후 grain의 크기와 개수를 비교하였다. 또한 플라즈마의 power에 따른 Cu 핵생성율도 조사하였다. 수소 전처리동안 working pressure는 10분 동안 1 torr로 유지되었으며 substrate의 온도는 20$0^{\circ}C$, r.f.power는 100watt로 설정하였다. Cu RPCVD의 증착조건은 r.f.power는 10watt, substrate의 온도는 20$0^{\circ}C$, gas pressure는 1 torr, Ar carrier gas는 50sccm, hydrogen processing gas는 100sccm, bubbler 온도는 4$0^{\circ}C$, gas line의 온돈느 6$0^{\circ}C$, shower head의 온도는 $65^{\circ}C$로 설정하였다. 증착된 Cu 박막은 SEM, XRD, AFM를 통해 제작된 박막의 특성을 비교.분석하였다. 초기 plasma 처리를 한 경우에는 그림 1에서와 같이 현저히 증가한 초기 구리 입자들이 관측되었으며, 이는 도상 표면에 활성화된 catalytic site의 증가에 기인한다고 보여진다. 이러한 특성은 Cu films의 성장률을 향상시키고, 또한 voids를 줄여 전기적 성질 및 surface morphology를 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify the mechanism of changes in maximum voluntary torque with the magnitude and duration of pre-activation torque during voluntary isometric knee extension. Method: 11 male subjects (age: 25.91±2.43 yrs., height: 173.12±3.51 cm, weight: 76.45±7.74 kg) participated in this study. The subjects were required to produce maximal voluntary isometric torque with a particular pre-activation torque condition. The properties of pre-activation torque consisted of the combinations of 1) three levels of magnitude, e.g., 32 Nm, 64 Nm, 96 Nm, and 2) two levels of duration, e.g., 1 sec, and 3 sec; thus, a total of six conditions were given to the subjects. The force and EMG data were measured using the force transducers and wireless EMG sensor, respectively. Results: The results showed that the maximum voluntary torque increased the most with relatively large and fast (96 Nm, 1 sec) pre-activation condition. Similarly, with relatively large and fast (96 Nm, 1 sec) preactivation, it was found that the integrated EMG (iEMG) of the agonist muscles increased, while no significant changes in the co-contraction of the antagonist muscles for the knee extension. Also, the effect of pre-activation conditions on the rate of torque development was not statistically significant. Conclusion: The current findings suggest that relatively larger in magnitude and shorter in duration as the properties of pre-activation lead to a larger magnitude of maximal voluntary torque, possibly due to the increased activity of the agonist muscles during knee extension.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine of this study is to study the effect of squat exercise on muscle activation in a sling device using various types of ropes and to propose an effective sling exercise method for strengthening the lower extremity strength. Method: 20 adult male subjects (age: 25.2±2.4 yrs, height: 176.5±3.2 cm, weight: 77.2±4.5 kg) participated in this study. In the experiment, a total of four squats were conducted: squat [SE], sling squat using inelastic rope [IR], sling squat using elastic rope [ER], and sling squat using two elastic ropes [TER]. Squats were performed 5 times for each condition, and a 60-second break was given for each condition to minimize muscle fatigue. The activation of biceps brachii, rectus femoris, gastrocnemius, and tibialis anterior muscles was measured. Results: It was found that the activation of all muscles was the lowest during the squat exercise [SE]. During the sling squat using inelastic rope [IR], the muscle activation of the biceps brachii was the highest. During the sling squat using elastic rope [ER], the activation of the rectus femoris, gastrocnemius, and tibialis anterior muscles was found to be the highest. In the sling squat using two elastic ropes [TER], most of the muscle activation was similar to that of the sling squat using inelastic rope [IR]. Conclusion: Our results of the experiment, it was found that sling squat exercise using elastic rope had a positive effect on the activation of all muscles. It is thought that performing a squat exercise under moderate weight load and unstable conditions, such as sling squat exercise using elastic rope, can increase the muscle activity of the lower limbs and perform more effective exercise effect than performing a conventional squat exercise under stable conditions. In the future, if research is conducted not only on adult men, but also on various ages and patients, it will be able to provide positive help in improving balance, stability and stamina through squat exercise.

Recently with CT developed, various studies for reduction of exposure dose is underway. Study of bismuth shields in these studies is actively underway, and has already been applied in the clinical. However, the application of the PET/CT examination was not activated. Therefore, through this study, depending on the application of bismuth shields in the PET/CT examination, we identify the quality of the image and the impact on the Standard Uptake Value (SUV). In this study, to apply to the shielding of the breast, by using the bismuth shields that contains 0.06 mm Pb ingredients, was applied to the PET/CT GEMINI TF 64 (Philips Healthcare, Cleveland, USA). Phantom experiments using the NEMA IEC Body Phantom, images were acquired according to the presence or absence of bismuth shields apply. Also, When applying, images were obtained by varying the spacing 0, 1, 2 cm each image set to the interest range in the depth of the phantom by using EBW-NM ver.1.0. When image of the PET Emission acquires, the SUV was in increased depending on the use of bismuth shields, difference in the depth to the surface from deep in the phantom increasingly SUV increased (P<0.005). Also, when using shields, as the more gab decreased, SUV is more increased (P<0.005). Through this study, PET/CT examination by using of bismuth shields which is used as purpose of reduction dose. When using shields, the difference of SUV resulting from the application of bismuth shields exist and that difference when gab is decrease and surface is wider. Therefore, setting spacing of shield should be considered, if considering the reduction of the variation of SUV and image quality, disease of deep organs should be a priority rather than superficial organ disease. Use of bismuth shielding factor considering the standard clinical examination, decrease unnecessary exposure can be expected to be considered.

This study was performed to evaluate change of lipid oxidation, microbes, and color of chicken meat containing 6, 8, and 10% of water uptake rate(WUR) during cold storage. pH of chicken containing 6, 8, and 10% of WUR showed 6.00, 6.04, and 6.05%, at day 3, respectively. Lightness($L^*$) of chicken containing 6, 8, and 10% of WUR was 73.40, 75.27, and 75.31, at day 3, respectively. Redness($a^*$) of chicken with 10% of WUR was 2.52, which was the highest value, while no difference was found between chicken with 6 and 8% of WUR. Yellowness($b^*$) of chicken containing 6, 8, and 10% of WUR was 4.31, 4.33, and 4.36. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS) value of chicken containing 6, 8, and 10% of WUR was 0.107, 0.104, and 0.113 mg malondialdehyde/kg meat. The higher WUR, the higher TBARS value was shown. Total microbial number of chicken with 6, 8, and 10% of WUR was 4.04, 4.12, and 4.56 $log\;CFU/cm^2$ at day 3. E. coli of chicken with 6, 8, and 10% of WUR was 0.93, 1.40, and 1.28 $log\;CFU/cm^2$. From this result high WUR increases $L^*$ value, TBARS, and microbes of chicken meat during storage. Therefore, lower WUR would be beneficial to extend shelf life of chicken meat during storage.

The stochiometric mixtures mixture of evaporating materials for the $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ single crystal thin film was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ single crystal thin film, $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched semi-insulting GaAs(100) in the Hot Wall Epitaxy(HWE) system. The sourceand substrate temperature were $610^{\circ}C$ and $450^{\circ}C$, respectively and the growth rate of the $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ single crystal thin film was about 0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$/hr. The crystalline structure of $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ single crystal thin film was investigated by photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD) measurement. The carrier density and mobility of $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ single crystal thin film measured from Hal effect by van der Pauw method are $8.51{\times}10^{17}{\textrm}{cm}^{-3}$, 291$\textrm{cm}^2$/V.s at $293^{\circ}$K, respectively. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting $\Delta$So and the crystal filed splitting DCr were 0.0148eV and 0.1678 eV at $10^{\circ}$K, respectively. From the photoluminescence measurement of $ZnIn_{2}S_{4}$ single crystal thin film, we observed free excition($E_{X}$) typically observed only in high quality crystal and neutral donor bound exicton ($D^{\circ}$, X) having very strong peak intensity. The full width at half maximum and binding energy of neutral donor bound excition were 9meV and 26meV, respectively. The activation energy of impurity measured by Haynes rule was 130meV.
