  • Two-photon microscopy (TPM), which uses two photons of lower energy as the excitation source, is a vital tool in biology and clinical science, due to its capacity to image deep inside intact tissues for a long period of time. To make TPM a more versatile tool in biomedical research, we have developed a variety of two-photon probes for specific applications. In this mini review, we will briefly discuss two-photon probes for lipid rafts, lysosomes, mitochondria, and pH, and their biomedical applications.

  • 사물 인터넷 환경에서 모바일 어플리케이션과 웨어러블 기기를 연동하기 위해 BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) 기반 통신을 많이 활용하고 있다. 특히 BLE 연동 안드로이드 어플리케이션을 개발할 때 개발 환경에서 BLE 에뮬레이션을 지원하지 않아 반드시 웨어러블 기기가 필요한 제약이 있다. 본 연구에서는 처음으로 안드로이드 BLE 에뮬레이터를 설계 및 구현하였다. 이를 활용하여 웨어러블 기기가 없어도 BLE 연동 어플리케이션을 개발할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 그래프 모델 기반의 안드로이드 BLE 시나리오 자동 생성 방법을 제안하고 자동 생성한 시나리오들을 제안한 안드로이드 BLE 에뮬레이터 상에서 실행하여 어플리케이션의 BLE 응용 프로토콜을 체계적으로 테스트하는데 유용함을 보였다.

  • In industrial applications, sensor networks have to satisfy specified time requirements of exchanged messages. IEEE 802.15.4 defines the communication protocol of the physical and medium access control layers for wireless sensor networks, which support real-time transmission through guaranteed time slots (GTSs). In order to improve the performance of IEEE 802.15.4 in industrial applications, this paper proposes a new traffic scheduling algorithm for GTS. This algorithm concentrates on time-critical industrial periodic messages and determines the values of network and node parameters for GTS. It guarantees real-time requirements of periodic messages for industrial automation systems up to the order of tens to hundreds of milliseconds depending on the traffic condition of the network system. A series of simulation results are obtained to examine the validity of the scheduling algorithm proposed in this study. The simulation results show that this scheduling algorithm not only guarantees real-time requirements for periodic message but also improves the scalability, bandwidth utilization, and energy efficiency of the network with a slight modification of the existing IEEE 802.15.4 protocol.

  • During the last half decade, chemically modified graphene (CMG) has been studied in the wide range of applications, such as polymer composites, energy-related materials, sensors, 'paper'-like materials, field-effect transistors (FET), inks, actuators, and biomedical applications due to its excellent electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. Chemical modification of graphene oxide, which is generated from graphite oxide, which is produced by simple oxidation of graphite, has been a promising route to achieve mass production of CMG platelets via their colloidal suspensions. Graphene oxide contains a range of reactive oxygen functional groups, which renders it a good candidate for use in the aforementioned applications (among others) through chemical functionalizations. In this presentation, I will discuss my recent research activities on the fundamental chemistry of graphite oxide, as well as novel applications based on CMGs. Topics will include the chemical structure of CMGs and colloidal suspensions of CMG platelets, as well as a wide variety of applications.

  • 조사시험 도중 핵연료의 특성변화를 확인하기 위하여 원자로 수조내에 위치한 조사리그로부터 핵연료봉을 분리한 후 핫셀로 이송하여 중간검사를 진행한다. 또한 중간검사를 마친 핵연료봉은 원자로의 작업 수조로 이동시켜 조사리그에 재장착을 하게 되며, 재조립된 조사리그는 원자로 노심의 조사리그에 장착시켜 조사시험을 계속 진행한다. 그러나 중성자 조사가 진행된 핵연료봉은 높은 에너지의 방사선을 방출하기 때문에 작업자가 방사선에 피폭되지 않게 하기 위하여 핵연료봉 장탈착 공정은 원자로 작업수조수 내에서 이루어져야 한다. 특히 조사리그의 길이가 5.4 미터이고, 핵연료봉의 장탈착 작업이 이루어질 하나로 작업수조수의 깊이는 6 미터로 매우 깊어 장탈착 작업을위한 특수한 장치가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 중간검사가 가능한 새로운 핵연료봉 조립체를 설계하고, 조사 핵연료봉 조립체의 장탈착용 툴을 개발하여 노외 성능시험을 통해 그 성능을 검증하였다.

  • The development of accelerator science and technology has been accommodating ever increasing demand from scientific community of the beam energy and intensity of proton beams. The use of high-powered proton beams has extended from the traditional application of nuclear and high-energy physics to other applications, including spallation neutron source replacing nuclear reactor, nuclear actinide transmutation, energy amplification reactors. This article attempts to review development of proton accelerator, both linear and circular, and issues related to the proton beam energy, intensity as well as its output power. For related accelerator physics and technical review, one should refer to the recent article in the Reviews of Modem Physics [1]

  • The performance of Li-ion system based on $LiCoO_2$ and Graphite is well optimized for the 3C applications. The charge-discharge mode, the manufacturing process, the cell performance and the thermal reactions affecting safety has been explained in the engineering point of view. The energy density of the current LIB system is in the range of 300~400 Wh/l. In order to achieve the energy density higher than 500 Wh/l, the active materials should be modified or changed. Adopting new high capacity anode materials would be effective to improve energy density.
