We previously reported a 27.12 MHz inductively coupled plasma source at atmospheric pressure for atomic emission spectrometry based on polymer microchip plasma technology. For the PDMS polymer microchip plasma, molecular emission was observed, but no metallic detection was done. In this experiment, a lab-made electrothermal vaporizer (ETV) with tantalum coil was connected to the microchip plasma for aqueous sample introduction to detect metal ions. The electrode geometry of this microchip plasma was redesigned for better stability and easy monitoring of emission. The plasma was operated at an rf power of 30-70 W using argon gas at 300 mL/min. Gas kinetic temperatures between 800-3200 K were obtained by measuring OH emission band. Limits of detection of about 20 ng/mL, 96.1 ng/mL, and 1.01 μ g/mL were obtained for alkali metals, Zn, and Pb, respectively, when 10 μ L samples in 0.1% nitric acid were injected into the ETV.

The yield stability of the neutron generator directly affects the accuracy of elemental analysis. This paper presents an industrial fully automatic neutron generator with a 48 mm neutron tube based on PLC to improve the stability and reliability of the neutron generator in industrial applications. By integrating a Kalman Filter with the PID algorithm in a PLC, the neutron yield of the generator is remarkably stabilized, achieving 1 × 10⁸n/s. The neutron generator has been employed for industrial online elemental analysis. The results demonstrate that only a slight fluctuation of ±0.82 % exists in the neutron yield, and the reproducibility of the generator holds at a significant level of 0.05. This improved neutron generator can be applied to the online bulk analysis of carbon in coal-fired power stations and absolute measurement of neutron source emission rate.

암석 재료의 변형에 따른 미시적 파괴 현상으로부터 발생하는 미소파괴음(Acoustic Emission, AE)을 측정하여 암석 구조물 내의 미세균열의 생성과 전파를 탐지하는 연구는 지하 암반 구조물의 안정성을 비파괴검사로 평가하는데 대단히 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 암반 구조물의 보강재로 사용되는 콘크리트와 대리석 암석 시험관에 대하여 전과정 응력-변형률 곡선을 얻기 위한 강성압축시험을 실시하였고, 시험 중에 미소파괴음 발생을 측정하여 미소파괴음 파라미터 분석 및 음원추적을 수행하여 대리석과 콘크리트의 변형 및 파괴거동 특성을 살펴보았다. 또한 시험편에 계단식 반복재하시험을 수행하여 그 변형거동을 고찰하였으며, 미소파괴음 측정을 통하여 재료의 손상, 암반의 현지응력 및 콘크리트 구조물의 응력이력 등과 관련된 카이저효과를 검증하였다

Mo이 코팅된 유리기판 상에 전기영동법으로 도포된 유리화 비정형 탄소분말의 전계방출 특성을 조사하였다. 탄소의 $sp^2$결합만으로 이루어진 유리화 비정형 탄소는 전계방출을 얻기 위한 초기화 공정 없이도 규칙적인 전계방출 거동을 보이고 있었다. 전자의 방출이 시작되는 임계전장의 크기는 3에서 4 MV/m 구간의 값을 가지고 있었으며, Fowler-Nordheim plot로부터 평가된 effective work function은 약 0.06 eV였다. 전류전압거동의 반복측정에 의해 관찰된 바와 같이 전계방출의 안정성 면에서 유리화 비정형 탄소는 Si tip보다 우수하였으며, 도포된 전체면적에서 전면발광의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 탄소계 물질에서 관찰되는 전계방출이 탄소의 $sp^3$결합과 밀접하게 관련되어 있지 않으며, 전자가음극물질의 표면으로 이동하는데 필요한 전기전도성, 혹은 기판과 음극물질 계면에서의 전자이동 등이 전계방출의 거동을 결정하는 중요한 요인임을 보여주고 있다.

The light-emitting properties of poly(2-triethylgermyl-1,4-phenylenevinylene) (TEG-PPV) are compared with those of the silyl-substituted PPV homologue, poly(2-trimethylsilyl-1,4phenylenevinylene) (TMS-PPV). The precursor polymer is solution-processable. After carrying out thermal elimination on the precursor polymer film, the resulting fully conjugated polymer film was found to exhibit high thermal stability in air, and absorption that is shifted to the longer wavelength region owing to the extension of the n-conjugated system. TEG-PPV exhibits efficient green light emission; the maximum PL emission of a TEG-PPV thin film was found to be at 515 nm. The HOMO and LUMO energy levels were also determined using photo-emission spectroscopy. The performance of the TEG-PPV EL device was found to be comparable to that of the TMS-PPV device.

An ultra-sharp tungsten electrode for field emission was manufactured by using an electrochemical etching method, and its beam characteristics were investigated. KOH and NaOH were the electrolytes used in this research, and the taper length of the tip varied form 150 $\mu\textrm{m}$ to 250 $\mu\textrm{m}$ according to the applied voltage and the concentration of the electrolyte. The electron-beam stability was measured to be within 5% for a total emission current of 5 ${\mu}\textrm{A}$ during 4 hours of operation, and the Ignition voltages were found to be ∼300 V. The tip radius was experimentally found to be 250${\AA}$ from a linear fitting of Fowler-Nordheim plots, which was in remarkably good agreement with that of the image size from scanning ion-microscopy.

Automatic monitoring of cutting process is one of the most important technologies for increasing the stability and the reliability of unmanned manufacturing system. In this study, basic methods which use the acoustic emission (AE) signals and cutting forces were proposed to monitor flank wear (width of flank wear) quantiatively. First, in order to detect flank wear, it was investigated that the influence of cutting conditions, that is, cutting velocity, feed and depth of cut, on AE signals (${AE_rms}$) and cutting forces. Furthermore, the relation between flank wear and the measured signals (${AE_rms}$, cutting force) was discussed.

Photoemission is a process in which photons are converted into free electrons. Photocathodes are the typical materials for the process. They emit electrons when a light is irradiated upon. The traditional method of manufacturing photocathodes is complicated, requires specialized equipment, and is limited very small sized samples. $Cs_3Sb$ photocathode was formed on a substrate in $N_2$ atmospheric conditions. The photocathode formation was a gas phase reaction with the substrate. Vacuum devices were made to test electron emission characteristics of the formed photocathode. Visible light of wavelength 475 nm was used for the primary light source. The results showed high current density and long term stability of the photoelectron emission.

Carbon nano tubes(CNTs) have been reported as field emission source because has a sharp tip, a high aspect tip, high chemical stability, high mechanical strength and low work function properties. In this study, we fabricated successfully the back-lamp of the I-inch flat type using CNTs, which was grown directly on cathode substrate of sodalime glass at low temperature. The brightness of CNT back-lamp is measured to $14 Kcd/m^{2}$ at $2000V_{dc}$ in spacing of $500{\mu}m$. And, the emission properties of packaged CNT back-lamp was analyzed as function of applying voltage and times.
