In this paper, the processing conditions of the amorphous silicon film growth were investigated the effect in forming the HSG-Si on the surface of the storage electrode. As a result, when the amorphous silicon film phosphorus concentration is greater than $5.5{\pm}0.1E19atoms/cm^3$, HSG-Si is not formed correctly and showed the concentration dependency of HSG formation. Also, the optimum condition of the phosphorus concentration for amorphous silicon and HSG thickness are $4.5E19atoms/cm^3$ and $450{\AA}$, respectively, because of the HSG thickness over the $500{\AA}$ create to bit failure according to a short of the electrodes and the electrode.

In this paper, a new HSG-Si formation technology, "seeding method', which employs Si$_2$H$_{6}$-molecule irradiation and annealing, was applied for realizing 64Mbit DRAMs. By using this technique, grain size controlled HSG-Si can be fabricated on in-situ phosphorous-doped amorphous-Si electrode. The new HSG-Si fabrication technology achieves twice the storage capacitance with high reliability for the stacked capacitors. In this technique, optimum process conditions of the phosphorous concentration, storage polysilicon deposition temperature and thickness of hemispherical grain silicon are in the range of 3.0-4.0E19atoms/㎤, 53$0^{\circ}C$ and 400$\AA$, respectively. In the 64M bit DRAM capacitor using optimum process conditions, limit thickness of dielectric nitride is about 65$\AA$.

The purpose of present study is to find out the formation mechanism of hemi-spherical grained(HSG) polysilicon film. Silicon film was deposited using LPCVD. Polycrystalline silicon film was deposited at $575^{\circ}C$ contained crystalline HSG in the amorphous matrix phase. The crystalline HSG can be categorized into two grains : lower grains and upper grains. Lower grains are located at interface between silicon dioxide and silicon film, and upper grains are located at surface. The growth orientations of HSG were identified as (311) or (111) directions for lower grains and perferentially (110) direction for upper grains. This difference of growth orientations seems to be caused by the difference of formation mechanisms. That is, lower grain is formed by soild phase crystallization, on the other hand, upper grain is formed by surface diffusion of silicon atoms. It was thus, proposed that the formation of practical HSG polysilicon film is mainly controlled by surface diffusion of silicon atoms.

Objective: This study was performed to evaluate the accuracy of hysterosalpingography (HSG) for evaluating female infertility patients by comparison with hysteroscopic and laparoscopic examination. Methods and Material: Total 219 infertile patients were retrospectively analyzed between January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2003. Ninety seven patients (44.3%) were primary infertility, 122 patients (55.7%) were secondary infertility. We performed hysteroscopic and laparoscopic examination on next cycle when HSG revealed any abnormal finding, and 3~6 cycles later if HSG was normal. Results: The accuracy of HSG was 65.2% compared with hysteroscopic examination (sensitivity 88.4%, specificity 46.4%, false positive rate 53.6%, false negative rate 11.6%). The most common abnormal finding of hysteroscopy was uterine synechia (67.4%) followed by endometrial polyp, uterine anomaly (e.g. uterine septum), endometrial hyperplasia. Compared with laparoscopic examination, the accuracy of HSG was 76.9% (sensitivity 98.9%, specificity 70.6%, +LR 3.36, -LR 0.02). The positive predictive value of normal patent tube was excellent (99.6%) but that of proximal tubal blockage was only 46.7%. The unilateral tubal obstruction of HSG was poor accuracy (+LR 3.85 -LR 0.68) and 70% of those was patent by laparoscopic examination. Laparoscopic examination also revealed that 53% of patients had peritubal adhesion and 37% of patients has additional pelvic findings, especially endometriosis. Among the patients had normal HSG, 53.5% patients with normal ultrasonography was diagnosed endometriosis (25.6% of them had endometriosis stage I-II). Conclusion: Normal HSG shows a high negative predictive value. Nevertheless, the incidence of associated pelvic disease in the normal HSG group is high enough to warrant diagnostic laparoscopy if nonsurgical treatment is unsuccessful. Because HSG has poor accuracy in predicting distal tubal blockage and peritubal adhesion, and poor positive predictive value of proximal tubal blockage, laparoscopic examination could be considered in abnormal HSG group.

The box capacitor structure with HSG-Si described here reliably achieves a cell capacitance of 28fF with a cell area of a $0.4820\mum^2$ for 128Mbit DRAM. An HSG-Si formation technology with seeding method, which employs Si2H6 molecule irradiation and annealing, was applied for realizing 64Mbit and larger DRAMS. By using this technique, grain size controlled HSG-Si can be fabricated on in-situ phosphorous doped amorphous silicon electrodes. The HSG-Si fabrication technology achieves twice the storage capacitance with high reliability for the stacked capacitors.The box capacitor structure with HSG-Si described here reliably achieves a cell capacitance of 28fF with a cell area of a $0.4820\mum^2$ for 128Mbit DRAM.

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship of serum calcium and magnesium levels to depression and anxiety symptoms in 80 homemarker. Fasting blood samples were collected and serum calcium and magnesium concentrations were measured. At the same time, psychological conditions of subjects were estimated by questionnaire. As the result of psychological test, eighty homemarkers were divided into two groups according to psychologicaltest scores. The subjects in one group got high pssycholgoical test scores as high score group (HSG) and the others got low physchological test scores as low score group(LSG). Serum calcium and magnesium concentrations were significantly(p<0.05) lower in HSG than in HSG than in LSG. Many a subject who belonged to HSG appeared to have depression and anxiety symptoms. Drepression and anxiety scores of the subjects with calcium supplementation were significantly (p<0.05) lower than those without calcium supplementation . After calcium supplementation, depressiion and anxiety scores were significantly (p<0.05) decreased in HSG and serum calcium and magnesium concentrations in HSG were significantly increased to normal ranges . This results suggested that psychological conditions of homemarkers might be affected by serum calcium and magnesium levels.

"Curve number" (CN) indicates the runoff potential of an area. The US Soil Conservation Service (SCS)'s CN method is a simple, widely used, and efficient method for estimating the runoff from a rainfall event in a particular area, especially in ungauged basins. The use of soil maps requested from end-users was dominant up to about 80% of total use for estimating CN based rainfall-runoff. This study introduce the use of soil maps with respect to hydrologic and watershed management focused on hydrologic soil group and a case study resulted in assessing effective rainfall and runoff hydrograph based on SCS-CN method in a small watershed. The ratio of distribution areas for hydrologic soil group based on detailed soil map (1:25,000) of Korea were 42.2% (A), 29.4% (B), 18.5% (C), and 9.9% (D) for HSG 1995, and 35.1% (A), 15.7% (B), 5.5% (C), and 43.7% (D) for HSG 2006, respectively. The ratio of D group in HSG 2006 accounted for 43.7% of the total and 34.1% reclassified from A, B, and C groups of HSG 1995. Similarity between HSG 1995 and 2006 was about 55%. Our study area was located in Sosu-myeon, Goesan-gun including an approx. 44 $km^2$-catchment, Chungchungbuk-do. We used a digital elevation model (DEM) to delineate the catchments. The soils were classified into 4 hydrologic soil groups on the basis of measured infiltration rate and a model of the representative soils of the study area reported by Jung et al. 2006. Digital soil maps (1:5,000) were used for classifying hydrologic soil groups on the basis of soil series unit. Using high resolution satellite images, we delineated the boundary of each field or other parcel on computer screen, then surveyed the land use and cover in each. We calculated CN for each and used those data and a land use and cover map and a hydrologic soil map to estimate runoff. CN values, which are ranged from 0 (no runoff) to 100 (all precipitation runs off), of the catchment were 73 by HSG 1995 and 79 by HSG 2006, respectively. Each runoff response, peak runoff and time-to-peak, was examined using the SCS triangular synthetic unit hydrograph, and the results of HSG 2006 showed better agreement with the field observed data than those with use of HSG 1995.

Objectives: The AHERA method by the US EPA, ASTM E2356-04, and HSG264 by the UK HSE, all of which are hazard/risk assessment methods for asbestos-containing building materials, were reviewed and compared based on 231 homogeneous areas. In addition, the current Act on Asbestos Safety Management (enforcement: April 29, 2012) was reviewed and analyzed. This trial provided fundamental data for improving the current asbestos hazard/risk assessment method. Methods: For the hazard/risk assessment of 77 asbestos-containing public buildings including schools, 231 homogeneous areas were selected, each of which was assessed using AHERA, ASTM E2356-04, and HSG264. Results: The matching rate of the hazard/risk assessment stood at 20.4 percent between AHERA and ASTM, at 71.4 percent between AHERA and HSG264 and at 17.8 percent between ASTM and HSG264. The AHERA method includes a seven-category rating scale. There were three categories, two of which have three subcategories. ASTM provides two decision-making charts consisting of ten rating scales for current condition estimation and for potential for disturbance estimation. In addition, the HSG264 method has a total of 20 scores with four items, and then provides four grades. This HSG264 method cannot clearly separate current condition and potential for disturbance. Conclusions: In the Korean Act on Asbestos Safety Management, the hazard/risk assessment method for asbestos-containing building materials should consider balance between current condition estimation and the potential for disturbance estimation.
