  • As semiconductor device architecture develops, from planar field-effect transistors (FET) to FinFET and gate-all-around (GAA), there is an increased need to measure 3D structure sidewalls precisely. Here, we present a 3-Dimensional Atomic Force Microscope (3D-AFM), a powerful 3D metrology tool to measure the sidewall roughness (SWR) of vertical and undercut structures. First, we measured three different dies repeatedly to calculate reproducibility in die level. Reproducible results were derived with a relative standard deviation under 2%. Second, we measured 13 different dies, including the center and edge of the wafer, to analyze SWR distribution in wafer level and reliable results were measured. All analysis was performed using a novel algorithm, including auto fattening, sidewall detection, and SWR calculation. In addition, SWR automatic analysis software was implemented to reduce analysis time and to provide standard analysis. The results suggest that our 3D-AFM, based on the tilted Z scanner, will enable an advanced methodology for automated 3D measurement and analysis.

  • The consumption in the clothing's living has been diversified and rich by the increase in pay, the ostentatious propensity to consume and the diversification of distribution on structure in accordance with the advance of clothing industries, etc. The clothing, however, was not used properly due to the thoughtless purchase, the sudden change of fashion and the difficulty in the use and management of clothing. Most rural communities, furthermore, have the poor market, and the unreasonable management could be often observed, e.g., some people don't follow the care label or burn the clothing to waste. This study was conducted to provide the tool measuring the standardized clothing management behaviors so that the systematic and effective instruction could be achieved to improve the living standards 623 rural and urban housewives to develop the tool measuring the standardized clothing management to compare and measure the effect of before and after the education and guide all the way. And then, we developed the standardized measurement tool consisting of 6 parts of 60 questions after analyzing the validation and reliability of the questions. As a result of analyzing the validation and reliability of the developed tool, each Conbach alpha value of clothing living showed the good reliability; the value of the purchase plan was 0.76, the purchase was 0.83, the wear was 0.80, the management was 0.84, the storage was 0.83, and the disposal was 0.74, which indicated that it was able to use as a standardized tool.

  • This study is about an influence of harmful factors of welding fumes such as Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn to workers who inhales them in welding sites. The influence can be measured with the density of heavy metals in blood after welding. The main factors of the measurement are TWA, a density of welding fume, and a level of heavy metals. The results indicate that there is a positive effect of moving fans as a way of improving the condition in welding workplaces. While welding was done, TWA exceeded the level of Fe 40% and Zn 10% and the level of heavy metals in blood was below the standard for the workers who were under the experiment. Also when the wind was applied on the front side by a fan, the welding fume significantly reduced. It can be concluded that wearing protection gears with safety devices is one of important factors.

  • It is necessary, in the light of the importance of long-term slope stability problem, to develop a simple method or tool which can figure out the possible failure zone resulted from weathering effect and other factors. The FBG sensor system is used to estimate the correlations between the temperature and the slope in Kimhae, and to find a failure zone in slopes effectively. This research is to seek for the correlation between the soil temperature distribution and the strain distribution in a active zone by analyzing the data from the in-situ measurement so that the possible failure zone should be well defined based on the correlation. For instance, the zone of high temperature fluctuation can be regarded as one of the possible sliding zone due to the weathering effect while the constant temperature depth of the ground, if exists would not be relatively affected by the weathering process.

  • This study examined the effect of group counseling on the self-esteem, self-efficacy, and congruent communication style of female victims of family violence. A twice-weekly group counseling consisting of 10 sessions was provided to 5 women residing in shelters in Seoul, South Korea from October $19^{th}$ to November $20^{th}$ 2009. This study employed the self-esteem scale developed by Rosenberg(1965) and translated into Korean by Jeon Byoung Jae(1974), a self-efficacy measurement tool(Kim A Young,1997) and a congruency scale(Go Moon Jeong, 2008). The Wilcoxon non-parametric verification was used to identify the differences between before and after the group counseling sessions. The results revealed meaningful improvements in self-esteem, self-efficacy and congruent communication styles.

  • Liquid permeabilities of red oak and several softwoods were measured by the pressure bomb method and a modified liquid permeability method in order to investigate their efficacy. The effect of preboiling and prefreezing on wood permeability were also examined for both green and resaturated specimens. Regardless of some disadvantages these two methods were revealed as a handy tool for quick evaluation of the permeability of an unknown species. The permeabilities of the resaturated specimens increased when preboiled. but decreased when prefrozen. For green specimens, however, pre freezing increased permeability. The discrepancy of the pre freezing effect on two specimens partially attributes to their difference of initial permeabilities. For all species except radiata pine heartwood, the radii of the effective capillary pores, derived from the water potential equation, distribute from $0.42{\mu}m$ to $7.2{\mu}m$. Those of radiata pine heartwood are below $0.46{\mu}m$.
