The shape and location of the cutoff shield in a projection-type headlight system were optimized by a ray-tracing technique. A shield based on a Petsval surface showed better cutoff characteristics than a flat or cylindrical shield, such as a sharp intensity gradient and less color separation at the cutoff line. Adjustment of the shield’s location between the reflector and the aspheric lens further improved its cutoff characteristics.

A simulation model for the estimation of cutoff connection rate in the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switching system under multimedia traffic environments is presented. The simulator is developed by the integration of the AweSim tool with user-written C++ routines that model the internal structures of operational details of the switching system. For the case study, the simulator is applied to the ATM switching system developed by Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) to compare design alternatives according to the cutoff connection rates.

The wave-cutoff tool is a new diagnostic method to measure electron density and electron temperature. Most of the plasma diagnostic tools have the disadvantage that their application to processing plasma where toxic and reactive gases are used gives rise to many problems such as contamination, perturbation, precision of measurement, and so on. We can minimize these problems by using the wave-cutoff method. Here, we will present the results obtained through the development of the wave-cutoff diagnostic method. The frequency spectrum characteristics of the wave-cutoff probe will be obtained experimentally and analyzed through the microwave field simulation by using the CST-MW studio simulator. The plasma parameters are measured with the wave-cutoff method in various discharge conditions and its results will be compared with the results of Langmuir probe. Another disadvantage is that other diagnostic methods spend a long time (~ a few seconds) to measure plasma parameters. In this presentation, a fast measurement method will be also introduced. The wave-cutoff probe system consists of two antennas and a network analyzer. The network analyzer provides the transmission spectrum and the reflection spectrum by frequency sweeping. The plasma parameters such as electron density and electron temperature are obtained through these spectra. The frequency sweeping time, the time resolution of the wave-cutoff method, is about 1 second. A short pulse with a broad band spectrum of a few GHz is used with an oscilloscope to acquire the spectra data in a short time. The data acquisition time can be reduced with this method. Here, the plasma parameter measurement methods, Langmuir probe, pulsed wave-cutoff method and frequency sweeping wave-cutoff method, are compared. The measurement results are well matched. The real time resolution is less than 1 ?sec. The pulsed wave-cutoff technique is found to be very useful in the transient plasmas such as pulsed plasma and tokamak edge plasma.

A cutoff probe is the novel diagnostic method to get the absolute plasma density with simple system and less assumption. However, high density of ion flux from plasma on probe tip can make the error of plasma density measurement because the dielectric material of probe tip can be damaged by ion flux. We proposed a shielded cutoff probe using the ceramic tube for protection from ion flux. The ceramic tube on probe tip can intercept the ion flux from plasma. The transmitted spectrum using the shielded cutoff probe is good agreement with E/M wave simulation result (CST Microwave Studio) and previous circuit simulation of cutoff probe [1]. From the analysis of the measured transmitted spectrum base on the circuit modeling, the parallel resonance frequency is same as the unshielded cutoff probe case. The obtained results of electron density is presented and discussed in wide range of experimental conditions, together with comparison result with previous cutoff method.

Electromagnetic wave simulation was performed to predict characteristics of manufactured cutoff probe at low temperature magnetized plasma medium. Microwave cutoff probe is designed for research the properties of magnetized inductively coupled plasma. It was shown that the cutoff probe method can safely be used for weakly magnetized high density plasma sources. Cutoff probe system with two port network analyzer has been prepared and applied to measure electron density distributions in large area, 13.56MHz driven weakly magnetized inductively coupled plasma source. The results shown that, the plasma frequency confirmed cut-off characteristics in low temperature plasma. Especially, cut-off characteristics was found at upper hybrid resonance frequency in the environment of the magnetic field. In case of a induced weak magnetic field in inductively coupled plasma, plasma density estimated from the cutoff frequency in the same way at unmagnetized plasma due to nearly same plasma frequency and upper hybrid resonance frequency. The plasma density is increased and uniformity is improved by applying a induced weak magnetic field in inductively coupled plasma.

We proposed a new measurement method of cutoff probe using the reactance spectrum of the plasma in cutoff probe system instead of transmission spectrum. The high accurate reactance spectrum of the plasma which is expected in previous circuit simulation of cutoff probe [1] was measured by using the automatic port extension method of the network analyzer. The measured reactance spectrum is good agreement with E/M wave simulation result (CST Microwave Studio). From the analysis of the measured reactance spectrum based on the circuit modeling, not only the electron density but also electron-neutral collision frequency can be simply obtained. The obtained results of electron density and e-n collision frequency were presented and discussed in wide range of experimental conditions, together with comparison result with previous methods (a previous cutoff probe using transmission spectrum and a single langmuir probe).

본 연구에서는 193nm의 ArF excimer laser 광원과 0.65의 NA를 갖는 광학계에서 기본 선폭이 $0.1{\mu}m$이고 duty ratio 가 1:1인 dense line & space(LS) 패턴에 대하여 여러사입사 조명 조건에 따른 초점심도(Depth of Focus; DOF)와 cutoff intensity를 확인하고 기본 capacitor 패턴에서 광학적 근접효과 보정을 위한 hammer head형 보조 패턴의 크기와 여러사입사 조건에 다른 DOF와 cutoff intensity의 변화에 대하여 알아보았다. 그결과 0.1$\mu$m급의 dense 패턴 구현을 위해서는 전형적인 X자형 사구 조명보다는 십자(+)형 사구 조명이나 환형조명이 보다 효과적인 것을 알수 있었다. 이와 더불어 보조 패턴의 크기가 약간 변한다 하더라도 일정한 초점심도와 cutoff intensity를 유지하는 경향을 보이는 특정한 조명 조건이 존재함을 밝히고 그에 따라 최적의 조명 조건과 보조 패턴의 크기에 대하여 알아보았다.

¹⁸F-FBB 판독은 회백질과 백질의 신호강도를 육안으로 비교하여 이루어진다. 정량화된 영상분석을 판독과 비교하여 영상분석의 유용성을 평가하고자 한다. 환자는 판독결과를 기준으로 음성과 양성을 100명씩 나누었고 FBB 300 MBq 주입하고 90분 뒤 20분간 촬영했다. 장비는 Discovery 600 (GE Healthcare, MI, USA)을 사용하였다. 제조사에서 제공하는 아밀로이드 판독 기준을 근거하여 4개의 관심영역을 설정하였다. 영상분석은 각 SUVmean을 소뇌로 나누어 SUVr를 산출하고 전체 영역에서의 평균 SUVr로 진행하였다. 통계분석은 ROC Curve를 통한 Cutoff 도출과 독립표본 t-test의 그룹간 차이, 그리고 Kappa test를 통한 판독결과와 일치도를 분석하였다. 전체 영역에서의 평균 SUVr의 Cutoff는 1.23으로 나왔다. Cutoff를 사용한 판독결과와 일치도는 음성에서 95/100 (95 %), 양성에서 92/100 (92 %)로 나왔다. t-test 결과 그룹 간에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었고(P < 0.05) Kappa 통계 결과 0.867로 높은 일치도를 나타냈다(P < 0.05). 영상분석의 결과가 통계적으로 유의하며 판독결과에도 높은 일치도를 보여 주었다. 추가적으로 FBB 영상분석은 아밀로이드가 축적된 부위를 3D 매핑하여 볼 수 있고 위치추정이 가능하며 정량분석 결과를 세분화하여 볼 수 있다. 정량화된 FBB 영상분석을 보조지표로 활용한다면 판독에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Due to the difficulty in measuring very low out-of-band cutoff depths of solar blind UV filters, we propose a cutoff depth adjustable measurement system (CDAM) to test deep cutoff filters with a large dynamic range. The CDAM utilizing the substitution method is elaborately composed of several parts, including narrow-band LED light sources, standard reflective neutral attenuators with known attenuation coefficients, and a photomultiplier (PMT). This paper also presents an attenuator combination method ensuring that the PMT works within its linear response range. In addition, numerical simulation testifies to the method, and experiment shows that the CDAM system can achieve an extension of dynamic range from 0-6 OD to 0-10 OD, which is sufficient for the measurement of out-of-band cutoff depths of solar blind UV filters. Above all, the CDAM system, being easily implemented, of wide dynamic range, and highly precise, could be widely used in the measurement of filter cutoff depth.

The objective of this study was to characterize Waveguide-Blow-Cutoff (WBC) array for Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) shield in air duct or water pipe, the typical pathway of pulse in indoor space with critical electronic device. A numerical investigation with three different WBC designs (circular, rectangular, and hexagonal or honeycomb) was conducted to satisfy recommended shielding effectiveness (SE) levels from 80 dB to 140 dB. Pressure drop between upstream and downstream of EMP shields based on WBC arrays was also investigated to understand air flow feature in air duct of HVAC system. Results showed that honeycomb geometry outperformed other shapes in terms of reducing the depth of EMP shield, thus providing better air flow in duct path with lower local loss coefficient in HVAC system under SE requirements.
