고감도 적외선 이미지 센서에 적용이 가능한 우수한 TCR(temperature coefficient of resistance) 값을 갖고 적외선 파장영역에서 흡수 특성을 갖는 막 형성을 위해, 본 연구에서는 Silica와 Titanium 분말을 혼합비율을 달리하여 준비한 후 열 기상 증착기를 이용하여 상온에서 게르마늄과 유리 기판 위에 각각 $(SiO_2)_x-(Ti)_y$ 막을 제작하였다. 챔버 내에 위치한 혼합분말이 담겨진 텅스텐 보트와 기판 간의 거리는 15.5 cm이며, 사용된 $SiO_2$와 Ti 분말의 혼합비율 x : y는 각각 90 : 10,80 : 20, 70 : 30, 60 : 40이다. $(SiO_2)_x-(Ti)_y$ 막의 전기적 저항은 273~333 K 영역에서 온도 변화에 따라 측정하였으며, TCR 값은 측정된 막의 저항 값으로부터 계산되었다. 다양한 혼합비율 조건 하에서 형성된 $(SiO_2)_x-(Ti)_y$ 막은 수 $k{\Omega}$~수백 의 $k{\Omega}$ 저항특성을 보였으며, 이러한 막의 TCR은 $-1.4{\sim}-2.6%K^{-1}$의 다양한 값을 나타내었다.

적외선 센서를 사용하는 최신 관측용 장비들을 저온으로 유지하기 위해서는 극저온 컴프레서를 센서에 연결한다. 그러나 컴프레서 진동원으로부터 발생한 외란 힘에 의해 취득 영상 품질이 저하된다. 따라서 고품질의 영상을 얻기 위해 극저온 쿨러에 대한 진동 절연 설계가 필요하다. 본 논문은 수동 진동 절연 방법의 장점을 사용하면서 컴프레서 외란 진동에 대한 높은 절연 성능이 있는 시스템을 연구 및 설계하는 것이다. 수동 진동 흡수기는 컴프레서의 구동 주파수를 고려하여 설계했다. 또한, 특정 외란 진동과 고주파수의 진동도 절연되는 쿨러 절연 브래킷을 설계하였고, 성능 분석을 위한 실험을 수행하였다.

Background and Objectives The ultimate goal in current skin rejuvenation practice is to achieve a good result with minimal pain and downtime. Nonablative skin rejuvenation (NSR) is one technique. The efficacy of the long-pulsed 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser (LPNDY) has not been assessed in NSR. Materials and Methods Three target areas were selected (bilateral cheeks and glabellar region) in six volunteer subjects. A LPNDY with an integral skin temperature monitor delivered three stacked shots to each target area (1064 nm, 12 mm spot, 13 J/cm², 1 Hz) without any skin cooling or anesthesia. The skin temperature was recorded before, during, and after each set of shots using the system monitor and in real-time using a high-sensitivity (±0.001℃) near-infrared video camera. The skin reaction was observed with the naked eye, and pain and discomfort were assessed by the subjects during and after treatment. Results The subjects reported a mild feeling of heat with no discomfort during or after the test treatments. Mild erythema was observed around the treatment areas, without noticeable edema. A series of three ascending skin temperature stepwise peaks, with a decrease in skin temperature towards the baseline after the third shot, was observed consistently. The mean temperatures for shots 1, 2, and 3 for the cheeks were 39.5℃, 42.0℃, and 44.4℃, respectively, and for the glabella, 40.8℃, 43.9℃, and 46.2℃, respectively. Similar ranges were indicated on the system integral temperature monitor. Conclusion A set of three stacked pulses with the LPNDY at a low fluence achieved ideal dermal temperatures to achieve some dermal remodeling but without any downtime or adverse events. The temperature data from the integral thermal sensor matched the video camera measurements with practical accuracy for skin rejuvenation requirements. These data suggest that LPNDY would satisfy the necessary criteria to achieve effective NSR, but further studies will be needed to assess the actual results in clinical practice.

In this work, water-soluble and blue-emitting carbon nanodots (CDs) were synthesized from apple peels for the first time via one-step hydrothermal method. The synthetic route is facile, green, economical and viable. The as-prepared CDs were characterized thoroughly by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron (XPS), fluorescence and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy in terms of their morphology, surface functional groups and optical properties. The results show that these CDs possessed ultrasmall size, good dispersivity, and high tolerance to pH, ionic strength and continuous UV irradiation. Significantly, the CDs had fast and reversible response towards temperature, and the accurate linear relationship between fluorescence intensity and temperature was used to design a novel nanothermometer in a broad temperature range from 5 to $65^{\circ}C$ facilely. In addition, the fluorescence intensity of CDs was observed to be quenched immediately by Cr(VI) ions based on the inner filter effect. A low-cost Cr(VI) ions sensor was proposed employing CDs as fluorescent probe, and it displayed a wide linear range from 0.5 to $200{\mu}M$ with a detection limit of $0.73{\mu}M$. The practicability of the developed Cr(VI) sensor for real water sample assay was also validated with satisfactory recoveries.

Purpose: Pulse crop damage due to wild birds is a serious problem, to the extent that the rate of damage during the period of time between seeding and the stage of cotyledon reaches 45.4% on average. This study investigated a method of fundamentally blocking birds from eating crops by conducting vinyl mulching after seeding and identifying the growing locations for beans to perform punching. Methods: Infrared (IR) sensors that could measure the temperature without contact were used to recognize the locations of soybean cotyledons below vinyl mulch. To expand the measurable range, 10 IR sensors were arranged in a linear array. A sliding mechanical device was used to reconstruct the two-dimensional spatial variance information of targets. Spatial interpolation was applied to the two-dimensional temperature distribution information measured in real time to improve the resolution of the bean coleoptile locations. The temperature distributions above the vinyl mulch for five species of soybeans over a period of six days from the appearance of the cotyledon stage were analyzed. Results: During the experimental period, cases where bean cotyledons did and did not come into contact with the bottom of the vinyl mulch were both observed, and depended on the degree of growth of the bean cotyledons. Although the locations of bean cotyledons could be estimated through temperature distribution analyses in cases where they came into contact with the bottom of the vinyl mulch, this estimation showed somewhat large errors according to the time that had passed after the cotyledon stage. The detection results were similar for similar types of crops. Thus, this method could be applied to crops with similar growth patterns. According to the results of 360 experiments that were conducted (five species of bean ${\times}$ six days ${\times}$ four speed levels ${\times}$ three repetitions), the location detection performance had an accuracy of 36.9%, and the range of location errors was 0-4.9 cm (RMSE = 3.1 cm). During a period of 3-5 days after the cotyledon stage, the location detection performance had an accuracy of 59% (RMSE = 3.9 cm). Conclusions: In the present study, to fundamentally solve the problem of damage to beans from birds in the early stage after seeding, a working method was proposed in which punching is carried out after seeding, thereby breaking away from the existing method in which seeding is carried out after punching. Methods for the accurate detection of soybean growing locations were studied to allow punching to promote the continuous growth of soybeans that had reached the cotyledon stage. Through experiments using multiple IR sensors and a sliding mechanical device, it was found that the locations of the crop could be partially identified 3-5 days after reaching the cotyledon stage regardless of the kind of pulse crop. It can be concluded that additional studies of robust detection methods considering environmental factors and factors for crop growth are necessary.

n-dodecane 연료 액적의 고온면 점화특성을 파악하기 위해 본 연구에서는 공기의 공급과 제어가 가능한 실험실 규모의 실험 장치를 제작하였다. 표면온도는 적외선 측정법에 의해 계측되었으며 적외선 측정법에 의해 계측된 온도는 k-type 열전대에 의해 측정된 온도와 비교하여 $10^{\circ}C$ 이내의 오차를 보였다. 각 공기 공급유량에 대하여 약 400회의 점화실험이 수행되었으며 점화실험결과로부터 점화확률 분포와 최소 점화온도에 관한 결과를 얻었다. 공기 공급유량이 3.0lpm인 경우를 제외하고 냉염과 열염 점화특성을 보였으며 공기 공급유량에 따라 냉염점화가 일어나는 온도범위가 큰 차이를 보였다. 실험결과 n-dodecane 연료의 최소고온면점화온도(MHSIT)는 공기공급 유량이 0.5lpm인 경우에 대하여 약 $300^{\circ}C$를 나타냈다. 본 연구에서는 외기조건에 따른 점화특성을 파악함으로써 초기 발화 메커니즘을 이해하고 조기화재 진압을 위한 시스템 설계의 기초적 자료로 활용된다.

This paper describes the characteristics of a poly 3C-SiC micro heater which was fabricated on $AlN(0.1{\mu}m)/3C-SiC(1.0{\mu}m)$ suspended membranes by surface micro- machining technology. The 3C-SiC and AlN thin films which have wide energy bandgap and very low lattice mismatch were used sensors for high temperature and voltage environments. The 3C-SiC thin film was used as micro heaters and temperature sensor materials simultaneously. The implemented 3C-SiC RTD (resistance of temperature detector) and the power consumption of micro heaters were measured and calculated. The TCR (thermal coefficient of the resistance) of 3C-SiC RTD is about -5200 $ppm/^{\circ}C$ within a temperature range from $25^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$ and -1040 $ppm/^{\circ}C$ at $500^{\circ}C$. The micro heater generates the heat about $500^{\circ}C$ at 10.3 mW. Moreover, durability of 3C-SiC micro heaters in high voltages is better than pt micro heaters. A thermal distribution measured and simulated by IR thermovision and COMSOL is uniform on the membrane surface.
