  • 화학기상응축공정법으로 세 가지 분해온도에서 제조된 나노 Fe-N 시료들을 뫼스바우어 분광기, XRD와 BET를 이용하여 자기적 특성의 변화를 연구하였다. 분해온도가 낮을수록 ${\gamma}'-Fe_4N$의 형성이 용이하였으며, 중간온도에서의 ${\epsilon}-Fe_{2.12}N$을 거쳐 높은 분해온도에서는 ${\gamma}-Fe$가 주로 형성되었다. 높은 분해온도에서는 Fe와 N이 서로 잘 결합되지 못하였는데, 이는 Fe와 N을 결합시키기 위해서는 분해온도를 낮게 하는 것이 바람직하다는 것을 의미한다.

  • Neutron induced prompt gamma-ray spectroscopy (NIPS) system measures the prompt gamma-ray, emitting by the interaction of a neutron with various materials. This system will be of great benefit to scientists worldwide, since it provides the non-destructive measurement of many elements in either solid or liquid wastes. A NIPS facility has been developed in Nuclear Chemistry Research Division, at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) with the aim of analyzing the major component elements in both aqueous and solid samples.(omitted)

  • Single crystal of $CdIn_2Te_4$ were grown by the Bridgman method without using seed crystals. From photocurrent measurements, its was found that three peaks, A, B, and C, correspond to the instrinsic transition from the valence band states of ${\Gamma}_7$(A), ${\Gamma}_6$(B), and ${\Gamma}_7$(C) to the conducton band states of ${\Gamma}_6$, respectively. Crystal field splitting and spin orbit splitting were found to be at 0.2360 eV and 0.1119 eV, respectively, from found to be photocurrent spectroscopy.

  • 본 연구에서는 중성자-감마 스펙트럼검층 존데 설계를 목적으로 Monte Carlo 시물레이션을 이용하여 열중성자 반응의 우세한 영역 파악 및 포획감마 스펙트럼의 에너지피크 값에 기초한 지층 구성 원소 구분을 수행하였다. 14 MeV 에너지준위의 중성자를 방출하는 중성자발생장치를 선원으로 이용하여 선원으로부터 10 cm 간격으로 12개의 중성자 검출기들을 배열함으로써 거리에 따른 열중성자 양을 측정하였다. 시추공 영향 저감을 위해 존데모형에 차폐재를 적용하여 보다 정확한 열중성자 측정을 수행하여 열중성자 반응이 우세한 위치를 분석한 뒤, 이 위치에서 검출된 포획감마 에너지 스펙트럼을 분석하여 지층을 구성하는 주요 원소 및 그 양을 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과는 중성자-감마 스펙트럼검층 존데의 신호대잡음 비 향상과 포획감마 검출기 최적 위치 선정에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

  • A basic characterization of uranium samples was performed using gamma- and X-ray spectroscopy. The studied uranium samples were eight types of certified reference materials with $^{235}U$ enrichments in the range of 1-97%, and the measurements were performed over 24 h using a high-resolution and high-purity planar germanium detector. A general peak analysis of the spectrum and the $XK_{\alpha}$ region of the uranium spectra was carried out by using HyperGam and HyperGam-U, respectively. The standard reference sources were used to calibrate the spectroscopy system. To obtain the absolute detection efficiency, an effective solid angle code, EXVol, was run for each sample. Hence, the peak activities and isotopic activities were determined, and then, the total U content and $^{234}U$, $^{235}U$, and $^{238}U$ isotopic contents were determined and compared with those of the certified reference values. A new method to determine the model age based on the ratio of the activities of $^{223}Ra$ and $^{235}U$ in the sample was studied, and the model age was compared with the known true age. In summary, the present study developed a method for basic characterization of uranium samples by nondestructive gamma-ray spectrometry in 24 h and to obtain information on the sample age.

  • As the IAEA has applied integrated safeguards and a state level approach to member states, the importance of national inspection has increased. However, the requirements for national inspection for some member states are different from the IAEA safeguards. In particular, the national inspection for the ROK requires on-site U concentration analysis due to a domestic notification. This research proposes an on-site U concentration analysis (OUCA) method for UO2 pellets using gamma spectroscopy to satisfy the domestic notification requirement. The OUCA method calculates the U concentration of UO2 pellets using the measured net X-ray counts and declared 235U enrichment. This research demonstrates the feasibility of the OUCA method using both MCNP simulation and experiment. It simulated and measured the net X-ray counts of different UO2 pellets with different U concentrations and 235U enrichments. The simulated and measured net X-ray counts were fitted to polynomials as a function of U concentration and 235U enrichment. The goodness-of-fit results of both simulation and experiment demonstrated the feasibility of the OUCA method.

  • The compounds associated with corrosion, in metallic archaeological samples of carbon steel of insular origin were evaluated to establish their degree of deterioration and structural damage against air pollution. The iron phases present in samples of archaeological artifacts were detected by Raman spectroscopy and confocal Raman microcopy. These samples mainly exhibited ing mainly ${\beta}$-FeO(OH) type goethite oxyhydroxides and small amounts of akaganeite ${\alpha}$-FeO(OH) lepidocrocite ${\gamma}$-FeO(OH) due to dominant chloride in a marine environment and non-stoichiometric oxyhydroxides Fe (II + / III +) as indicators of early corrosion. Some parts showed the presence of magnetic maghemite indicating high corrosion. ${\gamma}$-FeO(OH) is a precursor of phases associated with advanced marine corrosion. By studying its decomposition by Raman spectroscopy, it was synthesized with the following sequence: ${\gamma}-FeO(OH){\rightarrow}{\alpha}-FeO(OH)+{\gamma}-FeO(OH)$, ${\rightarrow}{\gamma}-Fe_2O_3+Fe_3O_4$. Ferric compounds provided evidence for the effect of intensity of laser on them, constituting a very useful input for the characterization of oxidation of iron in this type of artifacts. Thus, destructive analysis techniques should be avoided in addition to the use of small amounts of specimen.

  • A fiber-optic radiation sensor was fabricated using a sensing probe, a plastic optical fiber, a photomultiplier tube, and a multichannel analyzer for gamma-ray spectroscopy. As an inorganic scintillator of the sensing probe, a LYSO crystal was used. In this study, we obtained the relationship between the photon counts of the fiber-optic radiation sensor and the activity of the radioactive isotope. In addition, the gamma-ray energy spectra were also measured using a fiber-optic radiation sensor to discriminate species of gamma-ray emitters.

  • We investigated the Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) spectrum of ethephone (2-chloroethylphosphonic acid). We observed significant signals in the ordinary Raman spectrum for solid-state ethephone as well as when it was adsorbed on a colloidal silver surface, strong vibrational signals were obtained at a very low concentration. The SERS spectra were obtained by silver colloids that were prepared by the $\gamma$-irradiation method. The influence of pH and the influence of anion $(Cl^-,\;Br^-,\;I^-)$ on the adsorption orientation were investigated. Two different adsorption mechanisms were deduced, depending on the experimental conditions. The chlorine atom or the chlorine and two oxygen atoms were adsorbed on the colloidal silver surface. Among halide ions, $Br^-$ and $I^-$ were more strongly adsorbed on the colloidal silver surfaces. As a result, the adsorption of ethephone was less effective due to their steric hinderance.
