  • The daily photosynthetic photon flux density incident on a horizontal surface was estimated with sunshine duration through daily global radiation at Taegu in Korea. The constant and coefficient of $\AA$ngstrom equation for global radiation were calculated as 0.1763 and 0.5012, respectively. The conversion factor from daily global radiation to daily photosynthetic photon flux density was determined as 2.2359.

  • In this research, 3D position exploring system was developed to detect direction and position of radiation source by using two general CCD camera. This system consists of a radiation detection device, a controlling device, and a monitoring device. A radiation detection device is composed of a collimator, a scintillator, CCD sensor, and radiation shielding part. Incident radiation is firstly collimated with direction and converted into visual lights in a scintillator. The CCD sensor detect the converted visual light and send a signal as an image. This can explore a radiation source with direction and distance from geometrical structure of two sensors. From these information, the developed 3D position exploring system can provide 3D radiation source information. This research will be useful for managing and processing radioactive materials in remote.

  • Radiation data are the best source of information for estimating average incident radiation. Lacking this or data from nearby locations of similar climate, it is possible to use empirical relation ships to estimate radiation from days of cloudiness. It is necessary to estimate the regression coefficients in order to predict the daily global radiation on a horizontal surface. There fore many different equations have proposed to evaluate them for certain areas. In this work a new correlation has been made to predict the solar radiation for 16 different areas over Korea by estimating the regression coefficients taking into account cloud cover. Particularly, the straight line regression model proposed shows reliable results for estimating the global radiation on a horizontal surface with monthly average deviation of -0.26 to +0.53% and each station annual average deviation of -1.61 to +1.7% from measured values.

  • Ionizing Radiation effects on MOS devices provide useful information regarding the behavior of MOS based devices and circuits in the electronic instrumentation parts and instructive data for making the high sensitive sensors. The study presents the results of the analysis on the structural characteristics of MOS capacitor for sensing the ionizing radiation effect. We performed numerical modeling of Ionizing-radiation effect on MOS capacitor and simulation using Matlab program. Also we produced MOS capacitors and obtained useful data through radiation experiment to analyse the characteristic of ionizing radiation effect on MOS capacitor. Increasing the thickness of MOS capacitor's oxide layer enhanced the sensitivity of MOS capacitor under irradiation condition, but the sensitivity of irradiated MOS capacitor is uninfluenced by the area of MOS capacitor. The high frequency capacitance of the MOS capacitor is found to be strongly affected by incident ionizing radiation.

  • Knowledge of the solar radiation components and classified wavelength are essential for modeling many solar energy systems. This is particularly the case for applications that concentrate the incident energy to attain high photo-dynamic efficiency achievable only at the higher intensities. In order to estimate the performance of concentrating solar systems, it is necessary to know the intensity of the beam radiation, as only this components can be concentrated, and The new solar system can generate electricity from ultraviolet and infrared light as well as visible light. The Korea Institute of Energy Research(KIER) has began collecting solar radiation components data since January, 1988, and solar radiation classified wavelength data since November, 2008. KIER's solar radiation components and classified wavelength data will be extensively used by concentrating solar system users or designers as well as by research institutes.

  • Intervalence subband absroption of normally incident infrared radiation in p-type InGaAs-InAlAs coupled quantum well (CQW) is theoretically investigated by the multiband effective mass formalism. By solving a 4*4 luttinger-kohn hamitonian, we calculate valence subband structures, intervalence subband transition matrix elements, and absorption coefficient spectrum in the CQW which consists of a wider well, a thinner well and a barreir between them. Using the flexible design parameters given to the valence band CQW structure, we show that the absorption coefficient profile can be tailored. For a carefully designed CQW, theabsorption coefficient cn be made to maintain a large value over a wider wavelength range of incident infrared radiation compared with that shown in intersubband absorption in usual single quantum well.

  • Solar ultraviolet-B (UV-B) irradiances incident on a horizantal surface at Taegu of Korea during 1995-1998 were calculated with 5 min averges of measuremets taken every 30 seconds by a broadband UV-B sensor. The maximum and minimum of monthly averages of daily UV-B dose were 15.89 KJ m-2 day-1 in April and 3.91KJm-2 day-1 on May 22, 1998 and 1.230W m-2 at 12 : 45, July 13, 1998, respectively. Increasing trend in annual maximum of instantaneous UV-B radiation was averaged to 12.0% per year during 1995-1998 of observation period.

  • The measured solar radiation incident on tilted surfaces by all directions has been widely used as important solar radiation data in installing solar collectors, hot water systems, and photovoltaic modules, and in designing solar buildings and houses. To maximize the incident beam radiation, the slope, which is the angle between the plane of the surface in question and the horizontal, and the solar azimuth angles are needed for these solar applied systems. To respond to above needs, a theoretical study with actual measurements on moving route of the sun is carried out. This study focuses on the development of an solar expert system and on the selection of slopes for solar absorber plates in Korea.

  • This paper provides the design of system software for the management of radiation dose that is generated by using computerized tomography(CT). Recently, the radiation leakage incident of Japanese nuclear power plant was in the news internationally and there is a growing interest not only in nuclear power plant but in medical radiation exposure. In spite of the fact that currently safety management of radiation is under control only the workers of the radiation involved, now the exposure management of patients have been required. As surgery and inspections using the radiation have increased, this medical radiation exposure is increasing too. But it is a real situation that medical institutions don't know the level of radiation exposure applied to the patient. Therefore, a system for managing the radiation exposure of a patient from the medical institution is required. This paper proposes a design of a software program that manages the radiation exposure of CT which is a typical imaging tool to use the radiation in the medical institution. By check the amount of radiation dose and set the limit of dose, we would be of help to optimize the medical exposure of the patient.
