This study is essential for advancing our knowledge about the interaction between long-range high-power lasers and energetic materials, with a particular emphasis on understanding the response of a 155-mm shell under various surface irradiations, taking into account external factors such as atmospheric disturbances. The analysis addresses known limitations in understanding the use of non-realistic targets and the negligence of ambient conditions. The model employs the three-dimensional level-set method, computer-aided design (CAD)-based target design, and a message-passing interface (MPI) parallelization scheme that enables rapid calculations of the complex chemical reactions of the irradiated high explosives. Important outcomes from interaction modeling include the accurate prediction of the initiation time of ignition, transient pressure, and temperature responses with the location of the initial hot spot within the shell, and the relative magnitude of noise with and without the presence of physical ambient disturbances. The initiation time of combustion was increased by approximately a factor of two with atmospheric disturbance considered, while slower heating of the target resulted in an average temperature rise of approximately 650 K and average pressure increase of approximately 1 GPa compared to the no ambient disturbance condition. The results provide an understanding of the interaction between the high-power laser and energetic target at a long distance in an atmospheric condition.

최근, 헵타메틴 시아닌색소(heptamethinecyanine)는 그 적용 범위가 넓기 때문에 많은 연구자들의 관심을 받고 있다. 특히, photo-sensitizers, dye lasers, optical recordings와 storage media 등 다양한 분야에 적용이 가능하다. 헵타메틴 시아닌색소의 주된 특징은 polymethine 사슬에 연결된 cyclohexene 고리에 의하여 근적외선 부근에서 흡수가 이뤄진다는 것이다. 근적외선 색소의 흡수 특성을 HOMO와 LUMO 에너지 전위를 사용하여, 수치화 함으로써 분자간, 분자내 상호작용을 분석 할 수 있다. 따라서, 본 실험은 헵타메틴 시아닌 색소의 치환체에 따른 전기화학적 특성을 순환 전압-전류법(Cyclic voltammetry)과 분자 모델링을 통하여 HOMO와 LUMO의 에너지 준위를 구하고, 치환체 효과가 헵타메틴 시아닌색소에 미치는 전기화학적 특성을 UV-Vis와 계산으로부터 얻어진 에너지준위를 분석하고자 한다. 본 실험에 사용된 Uv-Vis 스펙트럼 측정은 Agilent 8453 UV-Vis spectrophotometer를 사용하였고, 전기화학적 분석 방법인 순환 전압-전류법은 Versa STAT 3 (Princeton allied research in USA)를 사용하였다. 순환전압-전류법의 측정은 Acetonitrile 용액에 $TBAPF_6$ (Tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate)를 전해질로 하고, Ag/$Ag^+$을 기준전극으로 사용하여 주사 속도를 50mV/s로 하여 측정 하였다. 치환체에 의한 영향을 알아보기 위하여 분자구조 최적화 모델링을 사용하였다. 3차원 분자입체 특성 및 에너지 준위 상태는 Materials studio 4.2를 사용하여 특성을 예측 하였다. 본 연구에서는, 헵타메틴 시아닌 색소의 기본 골격에 각기 다른 치환체를 치환 시켜 치환체에 의한 영향을 전기화학적인 방법인 순환 전압-전류법(Cyclic voltammetry)와 분자 모델링 방법을 사용하여, HOMO와 LUMO에너지 준위 값을 구함으로써 치환체에 의한 영향을 알아보았다. 치환체로는 Dye 1과 Dye 2로 치환된 헵타메틴 시아닌 색소를 사용하였다. 이렇게 얻어진 HOMO/LUMO 에너지 준위 값으로부터 이온화 에너지($I_p$)와 전자 친화도($E_a$) 또한 구할 수 있는데, $I_p$와 $E_a$는 분자 오비탈과 전자전이에 관련된 값들이고, 이는 계산을 통하여 얻을 수 있다. 순환 전압-전류법의 계산 방법은 봉우리 전위(peak postential)와 (onset potential)방법이 있는데, 이 계산을 통한 전위 값들이 봉우리 전위 계산 방법이 onset potential 방법에 비하여 작은 전위 값으로 나타난다. 하지만 이 두 가지 방법 모두 현재 순환 전압-전류법을 사용하여 HOMO/LUMO 에너지 준위를 측정하는 방법에 쓰이고 있으며, 어떠한 계산 방법이 더 정확하다고는 말 할 수 없지만, 본 실험 결과를 통하여 비교 분석한 결과 onset potential 계산 방법이 봉우리 전위 계산 방법에 비하여 정확하다고 판단된다. Dye 1과 Dye 2를 순환 전압-전류법으로 측정한 결과 각기 다른 전위를 나타내고 이것을 계산을 통하여 정량화하면 Dye 2가 Dye 1에 비하여 높은 전위 값을 갖음을 알 수 있는데, 이것은 ethyl 에 비하여 surful 원자의 전자공여성이 더 크다고 할 수 있다.

The Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) is a nonequilibrium gas discharge that is generated in the space between two electrodes, which are separated by an insulating dielectric layer. The dielectric layer can be put on either of the two electrodes or be inserted in the space between two electrodes. If an AC or pulse high voltage is applied to the electrodes that is operated at applied frequency from 50Hz to several MHz and applied voltages from a few to a few tens of kilovolts rms, the breakdown can occur in working gas, resulting in large numbers of micro-discharges across the gap, the gas discharge is the so called DBD. Compared with most other means for nonequilibrium discharges, the main advantage of the DBD is that active species for chemical reaction can be produced at low temperature and atmospheric pressure without the vacuum set up, it also presents many unique physical and chemical process including light, heat, sound and electricity. This has led to a number of important applications such as ozone synthesizing, UV lamp house, CO2 lasers, et al. In recent years, due to its potential applications in plasma chemistry, semiconductor etching, pollution control, nanometer material and large area flat plasma display panels, DBD has received intensive attention from many researchers and is becoming a hot topic in the field of non-thermal plasma.

A Strained Layer Multiquantum-Well (SL-MQW) distributed feedback laser at a wavelength of 1.31 um operating from $-40^{\circ}C$ to $85^{\circ}C$ without any cooling is grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Lasers with high slope efficiency are achieved through careful optimization of a SL-MQW active layer, especiallyoptimizing the amount of strain, the well thickness, the barrier thickness, the number of wells, and the active layer width. In this paper, we obtain the slope efficiencies of 0.38[mW/mA] and 0.26 [mW/mA] at $25^{\circ}C$ and $85^{\circ}C$, respectively. Threshold currents are 7.1[mA] and 19.8[mA] at $25^{\circ}C$ and $85^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Space- and time-resolved in-situ optical and fluorescence microspectroscopy techniques have been applied to investigate the coke formation during aromatization of C5 paraffin and olefin over H-ZSM-5 crystal. In-situ UV/vis absorption measurement offers space- and time-resolved information for the coke formation. Different coking trends have been observed with respect to the location of a crystal as well as the reactant types. From in-situ confocal fluorescence microspectroscopy study, it is revealed that the concentration of certain species photo-excited at 488 nm becomes high at the central region, whereas the compounds emitting fluorescence by 561 nm laser move towards the boundary region of the crystal. The different fluorescence patterns obtained varying excitation lasers suggest the existence of distinct fluorescence emitting species having different degree of coke growth.

Recently, we have developed p-i-n a-Si:H single junction thin film solar cells with RF (13.56MHz) plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) system, and also successfully fabricated the mini modules ($>300cm^2$), using the laser patterning technique to form an integrated series connection. The efficiency of a mini module was 7.4% ($Area=305cm^2$, Isc=0.25A, Voc=14.74V, FF=62%). To fabricate large area modules, it is important to optimise the integrated series connection, without damaging the cell. We have newly installed the laser patterning equipment that consists of two different lasers, $SHG-YVO_4$ (${\lambda}=0.532{\mu}m$) and YAG (${\lambda}=1.064{\mu}m$). The mini-modules are formed through several scribed lines such as pattern-l (front TCO), pattern-2 (PV layers) and pattern-3 (BR/back contact). However, in the case of pattern-3, a high-energy part of laser shot damaged the textured surface of the front TCO, so that the resistance between the each cells decreases due to an incomplete isolation. In this study, the re-deposition of SnOx from the front TCO, Zn (BR layer) and Al (back contact) on the sidewalls of pattern-3 scribed lines was observed. Moreover, re-crystallization of a-Si:H layers due to thermal damage by laser patterning was evaluated. These cause an increase of a leakage current, result in a low efficiency of module. To optimize a-Si:H single junction thin film modules, a laser beam profile was changed, and its effect on isolation of scribed lines is discussed in this paper.

Background and Objectives Ocular alkali burns cause severe damage to the ocular tissues and vision loss. Solcoseryl is a standardized calf blood extract that normalizes the metabolic disturbance and aids in maintaining the chemical and hormonal balance and has been used to treat burns in various tissues. This study examined the effects of Solcoseryl on a rat corneal alkali burn model. Materials and Methods Twenty rats were assigned randomly to four equal groups, including alkali burn, hyaluronic acid, Solcoseryl eyedrop, and Solcoseryl gel. A corneal alkali burn was induced by a NaOH-soaked paper disc. The treatments were given twice a day, every day. The wound area was measured after 24 and 48 hours, and the degree of neovascularization and corneal opacity were scored every week. The rats were sacrificed after three weeks for immunohistochemistry (IHC) to compare the level of inflammatory cytokines, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. The thickness of the retinal layers was compared to observe any changes in the retina. Results The use of Solcoseryl on corneal alkali burn accelerated wound healing with less neovascularization, greater opacity, and less cataract. IHC showed that the inflammation of the cornea was controlled by both the hyaluronic acid and Solcoseryl treatments. On the other hand, the inflammation had spread to the retina. When the dosage forms were compared, eyedrops were more effective on corneal inflammation, while the gel-type had a greater effect on retinal inflammation. Conclusion Solcoseryl was effective in accelerating the wound healing rate on a corneal alkali burn but could not prevent the spread of inflammation from the cornea to the retina. Eyedrops were more effective on inflammation in the cornea, and the gel was more effective in the retina.
