  • The goal of the present study is to explore IM interruption by relating it to media choices and purposes of IM use in the workplace. Two major media choice concepts were: media richness and social influence; while four purposes of IM use were: organization work, knowledge work, socializing, and boundary spanning activities. Data (N = 283) were collected via a combination of convenience and snowball sampling of "computer-using workers" in Taiwan, based on the Standard Occupational Classification system published by the Taiwan government. Results indicated that media choice works better than purpose of IM use to explain IM interruption. Among them, social influence was the best predictor to IM interruption in the workplace. In addition, instant feedback and personalization provided by IM, and IM usage for the purposes of knowledge work and socializing, also relate to IM interruption in the workplace.

  • This study was carried out to figure out on the changes of longitudinal salt movement in the soil through the soil according to the materials and thickness of salt prevent materials and the place of salt prevent at reclaimed land from the sea which is one of the most serious problems when tree planting. Changes of soil salinity were different depending on the seasons. In particular, the soil salinity was lower during the rainy season. But during the dry seasons including early summer before the rainy season and winter season, salinity was relatively higher. Among the seven interruption materials, crushed stone, dredged sand and wood chips showed better interruption effects than the other materials. The interruption effect of salt movement was highest in the both of side and bottom interruption treatment of salt movement than the side interruption treatment of salt movement or the bottom interruption treatment of salt movement. The thickness of the layer should be at least 20cm to prevent salinity effectively.

  • Intramuscular myxoma (IM) is a benign neoplasm of mesenchymal origin. We report a rare case of IM which was located in the lumbosacral paraspinal muscles. A 62-year-old female patient presented with progressive low back pain for 2 months, and the radiologic findings showed a large mass ($4.0{\times}3.5{\times}6.5cm$) in the right lumbosacral paraspinal area. Total resection of the tumor was performed and the symptom was nearly resolved after surgery. Although the immuno-histopathological analysis was consistent with IM, there were some different findings from typical pathological characteristics of IM in this case. Firstly, the symptomatic change of the mass took relatively short time (less than 3 months), and this change was accompanied by partial calcification inside the mass. Moreover, iatrogenic interruption of paravertebral muscle by the other previous operation might be the promoting factor of the fibrous dysplasia, which can explain the pathogenesis of IM. To our knowledge, this is the eighth case of the lumbar paraspinal myxoma reported in the literatures and the first case in Asian population.

  • A study was planned to see if the Panax Ginseng has any influence upon the general activity of rats. Seventeen male rats (mean body weight: 204 g) was divided into a ginseng group (N=9) and a saline group (N=8). Once a day for 5 days they received subscutaneously 0. 5m1/100g body weight of ginseng extract solution (4 mg of ginseng alcohol extract in 1 ml of saline), and same amount of saline, respectively. For 20 days beginning from the 1st day of medication on, each rat received activity measurement by means of beam interruption method. Following results were obtained : 1. Activities at night (6 p.m. to 6 a.m. next morning) and in 24hours on the 10 th, 12th, and 13 th day were significantly increased in the ginseng group compared with activities of the saline group. 2. Summed total night and 24-hour activities observed for 15 days after termination of medication were also significantly augmented in the ginseng group compaired with those of the saline group, although no remarkable difference existed between the 2 groups with regard to the summed total daytime activity. It is inferred that the ginseng augments general activity of rats especically at night.

  • 자발형성법(Self-assembled)을 이용한 InAs 양자점(Quantum dots)은 성장법의 고유한 물리적 한계로 길이방향에 대한 수직방향 비율(Aspect ratio, AR)이 상대적으로 작은 값을 갖는다. 기존에 보고된 바에 따르면 GaAs 기판에 형성한 InAs 양자점은 일반적으로 AR이 0.3 정도를 보인다. 이러한 높이가 상대적으로 낮은 InAs 양자점은 수직방향으로 운반자(Carrier)의 파동함수 (Wave-function) 구속이 작게 되어 나노 양자점 구조의 0차원적 특성이 저하되게 된다. 본 논문에서는 Arsenic 차단법(Interruption technique)을 이용한 수정자발형성법(Modified self-assembled method, MSAM)으로 InAs 양자점(MSAM-InAs 양자점)을 형성하고 성장 변수에 따라 광 및 구조적 특성을 평가하여 0차원 순도를 분석하였다. MSAM InAs 양자점을 성장하고 12 nm 두께의 GaAs spacer 층을 증착한 후 $600^{\circ}C$에서 30초 동안 Arsenic 분위기에서 열처리(Annealing)를 수행 한 후 다시 InAs을 증착 하였다. 이러한 과정을 5번 반복하여 높이 방향으로 형상을 개선시킨 InAs 양자점을(Vetically-controlled MSAM, VCMSAM) 성장하였다. 기존 자발형성법을 이용한 InAs 양자점과 MSAM-InAs 양자점 단일층 구조를 기준시료로 성장하였다. 상온 포토루미네슨스(Photoluminescence, PL) 실험에서 단일 MSAM InAs 양자점 및 VCMSAM 양자점 시료의 발광에너지는 각각 1.10 eV와 1.13 eV를 나타내었다. VCMSAM InAs 양자점 시료의 PL세기는 단일 MSAM 양자점보다 3.4배 증가되어, 확연히 높게 나타나는 결과를 보였다. 이러한 결과는 높이 방향으로 운반자의 파동함수 구속력이 증가하여 구속준위 (Localized states)의 전자-정공의 파동함수중첩(Overlap integral)이 개선된 것으로 설명할 수 있다. 투과전자현미경(Transmission electron microscopy) 및 원자력간 현미경(Atomic force microscopy)을 이용하여 구조적 특성을 평가하고 이를 비교 분석한 결과를 보고한다.

  • 양자점(Quuantum dot, QD)은 0차원 특성을 가지는 구조로 양자 구속 효과로 인하여 bulk와 는 다른 구조적, 광학적, 전기적 특성을 가지고 있다. InAs QD는 size와 barrier의 bandgap 조절을 이용하여 쉽게 bandgap을 바꿀 수 있는 장점이 있어 solar cell, semiconductor laser diode, infrared photodetector 등으로 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 일반적으로 Stranski-Krastanov (SK) mode로 성장한 InAs QD는 보통 GaAs epilayer와의 lattice mismatch (7%)를 이용하여 성장을 하고 이로 인하여 strain을 가지고 있고 QD의 density와 stack이 높을수록 strain이 커진다. 하지만 sub-monolayer (SML) QD 같은 경우 wetting layer가 생기는 지점인 1.7 ML이하에서 성장되는 성장 방식으로 SK-QD보다는 작은 strain을 가지게 된다. 또 QD의 size가 작아 SK-QD보다 큰 bandgap을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분자선 에피택시(molecular beam epitaxy, MBE)를 이용하여 semi-insulating GaAs substrate 위에 InAs QD를 0.5/1/1.5/1.7/2/2.5 monolayer로 성장을 하였다. GaAs과 InAs의 성장온도와 성장속도는 각각 $590^{\circ}C$, 0.8 ML/s와 $480^{\circ}C$, 0.2 ML/s로 성장을 하였으며 적층사이의 interruption 시간은 10초로 고정하였고 10주기를 성장하였다. Photoluminescence (PL)측정 결과 SML-QD는 size에 따라서 energy가 1.328에서 1.314 eV로 약간 red shift를 하였고 SK-QD의 경우 1.2 eV의 energy정도로 0.1 eV이상 red shift 하였다. 이는 QD size에 의하여 energy shift가 있다고 사료된다. 또 wetting layer의 경우 1.41 eV의 energy를 가지는 것으로 확인 하였다. SML-QD는 SK-QD 보다 반치폭(full width at half maximum, FWHM)이 작은 것은 확인을 하였고 strain field의 감소로 해석된다. 하지만 SML-QD의 경우 SK-QD보다 상대적으로 작은 PL intensity를 가지고 있었다. 이를 개선하기 위해서는 보다 높은 QD density를 요구하게 되는데 growth temperature, V/III ratio, growth rate 등을 변화주어서 연구할 계획이다.

  • Wang Cheong-Im(1768-1831) in the Ching dynasty conducted the therapy of blood statis syndrome using the methods for promoting blood circulation and removing blood statis in accordance with the description in the book Uirimgaechak(醫林改錯). Thus, this study examined his methods for promoting blood circulation and removing blood statis, therapy of blood statis syndrome and mechanism of function. Since the blood statis symptoms varied on the parts where the blood statis were occurred, the therapy for promoting blood circulation and removing blood statis applied different treatments and drugs depending on the symptoms. The therapy also valued much of qi and blood. Qi is important to the human body so that the therapy replenished qi and simultaneously promoted the blood circulation as mainly focusing on the regulation of the qi flow. Moreover, the therapy adjusted the level of removing blood circulation and rate of replenishing qi. The degree of prescription and drug was differentiated in treating a variety of blood statis because of the difference in the seriousness and characteristics of blood circulation, amount and application of drug and combination of drugs. The therapy was careful about the regulation of qi for the replenishment of qi and the nurishment of blood for the promotion of blood circulation. If the blood circulation was blocked, the blood statis was formed. Accordingly, the phlegm and the blood statis were closely related. Then, the phlegm and blood statis were simultaneously treated. The therapy divided the properties of blood statis into the stagnant excess syndrome, the stagnant deficiency syndrome, the stagnant cold syndrome and the stagnant heat syndrome and treated the patients suitable for each symptom. The function of mechanism in the treatment using the methods for promoting blood circulation and removing blood statis was divided into the stagnation of blood and interruption in blood circulation. The therapy laid stress on promoting blood circulation and removing blood circulation. With such emphasis, the therapy facilitated the circulation in the bloood vessel, prevented the coagulation of blood, removed the blood statis and promoted the metabolism. Then, the physiological function and pathological change internal organs were improved. Furthermore, the therapy strengtened the heart and promoted the blood circulation by improving the systemic blood circulation. Moreover, the therapy facilitated the micro-circulation by adjusting the balance of body.

  • This study was conducted to explore the latest trends in domestic research related to career development for nurses and present a theoretical approach and practical direction of career related papers in the field of nursing and health care. The subject of the study was articles regarding career development of nurses published in domestic journals from 2008 to 2017. The final 29 papers were found after searching the RISS and KISS databases for 'nursing', 'nurse', 'career', 'career development', 'career development program', and 'career management.' To analyze the overall trends, the analysis was reviewed by year, source, research design, and subjects, and content analysis was used to identify trends by topic. The results of content analysis were divided into career development and career development results as the upper categories. The subcategories of career development were divided into organizational career management, personal career management, and career performance. The subcategories of personal career management consisted of career exploration, career planning, career plateau, and career interruption. Organizational career management consisted of CLS development and application, CLS awareness survey, and career development model building. Career performance consisted of career commitment, organizational commitment, turnover intention, change after CLS application, career satisfaction, and career withdrawal intention. The most frequently discussed topics were career commitment among career performance. Therefore, the direction of nursing research related to career development requires integrated research that meets personal and organizational needs, and diversity in subject, research design and research theme is required.
