Polarimetric study of light scattering from cometary dust particles can provide us opportunity to decipher their characteristics, such as sizes, structures, compositions of dust grains, etc. Herein, we present the results of our polarimetric study of long-period comet, C/2013 US10 (Catalina), in optical and near-infrared wavelengths which appeared at large phase angle (52.7 degrees) around the mid-December, 2015. We performed polarimetric and spectroscopic observations with HONIR, attached to the 1.5-m telescope at Higashi-Hiroshima Observatory, on UT 2015 December 17-18 and also obtained optical imaging data sets by the Ishigakijima Astronomical Observatory (IAO) and Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (OAO) taken between 2014-2015. By measuring the intensities of gas emission lines with respect to dust continuum and considering transmittance of each filter, we estimated that the percentages of gas contamination are approximately 10 percents in $R_C$-band and 3 percents in $I_C$-band. With these results, we derive the degree of linear polarization scattered solely from dust components in the coma. At this presentation, we will compare the phase-angle dependence of the degree of linear polarization with those of previous archive data in a wide coverage of wavelengths from $R_C$-band to $K_S$-band. Finally, we are supposed to discuss the spatial variations in polarization within the coma.

본 논문에서는 calibration된 scatterometer를 이용하여 SAR 데이터를 보정하는 연구 결과를 선보인다. 도체구를 이용하여 안테나 주빔에서의 polarimetric한 안테나 패턴(크기와 위상)을 측정하고, 이 데이터를 이용하여 차량 탑재형 네트워크 분석기형 scatterometer 시스템을 polarimetric하게 정확하게 보정하였다. 이 scatterometer를 이용하면 잔디밭, 논, 맨땅 등의 지표면에 대한 정확한 Mueller 행렬을 얻을 수 있으므로, 레이더 산란계수뿐만 아니라 위상변수들도 정확하게 측정하게 된다. 또한, 대부분의 SAR 시스템에는 위상변수 측정에 에러가 있게되고, polarimetric하게 보정된 scatterometer로 SAR가 측정하는 지역을 동시에 측정하여 SAR 데이터를 교정할 수 있다. 이러한 polarimetric한 보정 방법을 이용하면, 산란계수의 보정효과는 크지 않으나, hh-편파와 vv-편파간의 위상변수인 degree of correlation $\alpha$의 보정효과는 매우 큼을 알 수 있었다.

We have developed and applied a diagnostic Multi-Leaf Collimator (MLC) to optimized the X-ray field in medical imaging and the usefulness evaluated through the fusion of infrared image and X-ray image acquired by infrared camera. The hand and skull radiography with multi-leaf collimator(MLC) showed significant area dose reductions of 22.9% and 31.3% compared to ARC and leakage dose was compliant with KS A 4732. Also scattering doses of 50 cm and 100 cm showed a significant decrease to confirm the usefulness of MLC. It was confirmed that the fusion of infrared images with an adjustable degree of transparency was possible in the X-ray images. Therefore, fusion of anatomical information with physiological convergence is expected to contribute and improvement of diagnostic ability. In addition, the feasibility of convergence X-ray imaging and DITI devices and the possibility of driving MLC with infrared images were confirmed.

The optimal conditions for the production of branched dextrin from com starch (CSBD) using branching enzyme (BE) were established by investigating the degree of retrogradation of the gelatinized starch. The physicochemical properties of CSBD prepared using the established process were evaluated. It was found that physicochemical properties of com starch were greatly modified by BE treatment. CSBD had a higher dextrose-equivalent value and water solubility than the corresponding control. On the other hand, the viscosities in gelatinized solution and amylose contents of CSBD were lower than those of the control. A high-performance size-exclusion chromatography/multiangle laser light scattering/retractive index (HPSEC/MALLS/RI) system showed that the average molecular weight of CSBD was lower than that of the control. The pasting viscosities of CSBD were stable during the entire temperature cycle. In general, the BE treatment resulted in the retrogradation during storage being lower for CSBD than for the control.

We present a synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWNTs) for enhancement of parallel-alignment and density using chemical vapor deposition with methane feed gas. As-purchased ST-cut quartz substrates were heat-treated and line-patterned by electron-beam lithography in order to grow SWNTs with parallel alignment. We investigated the effects of various synthesis parameters such as catalyst oxidation, reduction, and synthesis conditions in order to enhance both tube density and degree of parallel alignment. The condition of $1{\AA}$ of Fe catalyst film, atmospheric oxidation at $750^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, reduction under 400 Torr for 5 min, and growth at $865^{\circ}C$ under 300 Torr yields $33tubes/10{\mu}m$, which is the highest tube density with parallel alignment. Based on the results of atomic force microscope and Raman spectroscopy, it was found that SWNTs have diameter range of 0.8-2.0 nm. We believe that the present work would contribute to the development of SWNTs-based flexible functional devices.

A series of amphiphilic dendrons n-18 (n: generation number, 18: octadecyl chain) based on an aliphatic polyether denderitic core and octadecyl peripheries were synthesized using a convergent dendron synthesis consisting of a Williamson etherification and hydroboration/oxidation reactions. This study investigated their thermal and self-assembling behavior in the solid state using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) absorption spectroscopy, and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). DSC indicated that the melting transition and the corresponding heat of the fusion of the octadecyl chain decreased with each generation. FT-IR showed that the hydroxyl focal groups were hydrogen-bonded with one another in the solid state. DSC and FT-IR indicated microphase-separation between the hydrophilic dendritic cores and hydrophobic octadecyl peripheries. SAXS data analysis in the solid state suggested that the lower-generation dendrons 1-18 and 2-18 self-assemble into lamellar structures based upon a bilayered packing of octadecyl peripheries. In contrast, the analyzed data of higher-generation dendron 3-18 is consistent with 2-D oblique columnar structures, which presumably consist of elliptical cross sections. The data obtained could be rationalized by microphase-separation between the hydrophilic dendritic core and hydrophobic octadecyl peripheries, and the degree of interfacial curvature associated with dendron generation.

The surface of silicon dummy wafers is contaminated with metallic impurities owing to the reaction with and adhesion of chemicals during the oxidation process. These metallic impurities negatively affect the device performance, reliability, and yield. To solve this problem, a wafer-cleaning process that removes metallic impurities is essential. RCA (Radio Corporation of America) cleaning is commonly used, but there are problems such as increased surface roughness and formation of metal hydroxides. Herein, we attempt to use a chelating agent (EDTA) to reduce the surface roughness, improve the stability of cleaning solutions, and prevent the re-adsorption of impurities. The bonding between the cleaning solution and metal powder is analyzed by referring to the Pourbaix diagram. The changes in the ionic conductivity, H2O2 decomposition behavior, and degree of dissolution are checked with a conductivity meter, and the changes in the absorbance and particle size before and after the reaction are confirmed by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) analyses. Thus, the addition of a chelating agent prevents the decomposition of H2O2 and improves the life of the silicon wafer cleaning solution, allowing it to react smoothly with metallic impurities.

The oil immersion method can be used to create objective lenses with long working distances without sacrificing the focusing resolution for laser processing. In this study, a space in which air or oil can be filled was formed in the middle of a lens for analyzing the optical properties of a liquid-oil immersion lens. As the refractive media, air and oils of different refractive index values (1.2 and 1.5, respectively) were used. A simulation was conducted in the ZEMAX software environment using the ray-tracing technique, and the performance of the oil immersion lens was verified by determining its image distortion and focal length (FL) in each medium. In the case of air, the calculated FL was 0.813 mm, whereas the imaged FLs were 1.594 mm and 8.126 mm when the refraction indices were 1.2 and 1.5, respectively. The FL of an oil immersion lens could be increased considerably. In terms of image distortion, the oil immersion lens exhibited little distortion at the center in all cases, but different degrees of image distortion were observed at different points away from the center depending on the refraction index degree.
