To date, rubbing has been widely used to align LC molecules uniformly. Although rubbing can be simple, it has fundamental problems such as the generation of defects by dust and static electricity, and difficulty in achieving a uniform LC alignment on a large substrate. Therefore, noncontact alignment has been investigated. Ion beam induced alignment method, which provides controllability, nonstop process, and high resolution display. In this study, we investigated liquid crystal (LC) alignment with ion beam (IB) that non contact alignment technique on polyimide and electro-optical characteristics of twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) on the poly imide under various ion beam angles. In this experiment, Polyimide layer was coated on glass by spin-coating and Voltage-transmittance(VT) and response time characteristics of the TN cell were measured by a LCD evaluation system. The good characteristics of the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment with the ion beam exposure poly imide surface was observed. The tilt angle of NLC on the PI surface with ion beam exposure can be measured under $1^{\circ}4 for all of irradiation angles. In addition, it can be achieved the good ED properties, and residual DC property of the ion beam aligned TN cell on polyimide surface.

The Liquid Crystal (LC) alignment uniformity is very important in LC devices. The alignment mechanism of LC molecules on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface is very important for both LC fundamental research and application. So, Generally a rubbing method to align LC has been widely used to mass-produce LCD panels. But because rubbing method is contact method between rubbing fabric and indium-tin-oxide glass or flexible substrate, rubbing method has some defects, such as the electrode charges and the creation of contaminating particles. Thus we strongly recommend a non-contact alignment technique for getting rid of some defects of rubbing method. Most recently, the LC aligning capabilities achieved by ion-beam exposure on the organic and nonorganic thin film surface have been reported successfully. In this research, we studied the tilt angle generation and electro-optical performances for a NLC on homeotropic polyimide surfaces with ion-beam exposure. The LC aligning capabilities of a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on a homeotropic PI surface using a new ion-beam method were studied. On the homeotropic PI surface, the tilt angle of the NLC by exposure ion-beam had a tendency to decrease as increased ion-beam energy density. And, on the homeotropic PI surface, the alignment character of the NLC with respect to ion-beam energy was good. And we achieved satisfactory result for EO character.

Beam trajectory is needed to be controlled in heavy ion accelerator system. Quadruple magnets are widely used in heavy ion accelerator for focusing the transporting particles. A quadruple triplet system which consists of three consecutive quadrupoles, Q1, Q2 and Q3, is used to control beam trajectory at a focused position. Q1 and Q3 have symmetry with respect to Q2. The beam trajectory in magnet system is affected by higher order fields existed in real fields. For quadrupoles, the representation simulation of beam trajectory was carried out to study the beam trajectory and to estimate an effect of higher order field in triplet system. SCALA program was used to simulate the beam trajectory in $Opera^{TM}$. SCALA can analyze a large number of beam trajectories at the same time by adjusting the size of finite element of the emitter. With $Opera^{TM}$ and $Matlab^{TM}$ programs, the position of focused beam spot in quadruple triplet system can be increased or decreased using evolution strategy (ES) method, therefore the length of triplet system can be controlled. Finally, the quadruple triplet system with the appropriate length and expected beam spot range was suggested in this paper.

The thin films of 316L stainless steel were made on glass and S45C substrate by Ion beam assisted deposition with reactive atmosphere of argon and nitrogen. The films were deposited at the various conditions of ion beam power and the ratios of Ar/$N_2$gas. Properties of these films were analyzed by glancing x-ray diffraction method(GXRD), AES, potentiodynamic test, and salt spray test. The results of GXRD showed that austenite phase could be appeared by $N_2$ion beam treatment and the amount of austenite phase increased with the amount of nitrogen gas. The films without plasma ion source treatment had the weak diffraction peak of ferrite phase. But under the Ar plasma ion beam treatment, the strong diffraction peaks of ferrite phase were appeared and the grain size was increased from 12 to 16 nm. Potentiodynamic polarization test and salt spray test indicated that the corrosion properties of the STS 316L films with nitrogen ion source treatment were better than bulk STS 316L steel and STS 316L films with Ar ion source treatment.

A low energy ion irradiation system based on the deuterium arc ion source with a high perveance of 1 µP for a single extraction aperture has been successfully developed for the investigation of ion irradiation on plasma-facing components including the first mirror of plasma optical diagnostics system. Under the optimum operating condition for mirror testing, the ion source has a beam energy of 200 eV and a current density of 3.7 mA/cm². The ion source comprises a magnetic cusp-type plasma source, an extraction system, a target system with a Faraday cup, and a power supply control system to ensure stable long time operation. Operation parameters of plasma source such as pressure, filament current, and arc power with D₂ discharge gas were optimized for beam extraction by measuring plasma parameters with a Langmuir probe. The diode electrode extraction system was designed by IGUN simulation to optimize for 1 µP perveance. It was successfully demonstrated that the ion beam current of ~4 mA can be extracted through the 10 mm aperture from the developed ion source. The target system with the Faraday cup is also developed to measure the beam current. With the assistance of the power control system, ion beams are extracted while maintaining a consistent arc power for more than 10 min of continuous operation.

집속이온빔(FIB, focused ion beam)법은 광물 및 지질시료의 분석 대상 위치로부터 투과전자현미경(TEM, transmission electron microscope) 관찰을 위한 박편을 정밀하게 제작할 수 있는 방법으로 널리 보급되고 있다. 그러나 박편 제작과정에서 Ga 이온빔에 의한 구조 손상이나 인위적 효과들이 발생하여 전자빔에 의한 손상과 함께 TEM 분석에서의 난점들 중 하나이다. 광물 시료 FIB 박편의 TEM 관찰에서 석영과 장석의 비정질화, 커튼 효과, Ga 오염 등이 확인되었으며, 특히 입자 경계 부근이나 두께가 얇은 곳에서 이들 현상이 보다 뚜렷하다. 박편 제작 시의 가속전압 및 전류 조정 등의 분석절차 개선으로 이온빔 손상을 줄일 수 있으나, 어느 정도의 손상이나 오염은 피할 수 없으므로 TEM 박편 관찰과 해석에서 유의하여야 한다.

배양 중인 담배의 약과 캘러스, 그리고 종자에 중이온 ($^{14}$ N 또는 $^{20}$ Ne) beam을 조사하여 중이온 beam 조사가 약의 반응, 캘러스의 생장, 종자의 발아와 초기 생장에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 중이온 beam을 조사하기 전 10일간 preculture한 다음 beam을 조사한 약은 $^{14}$ N, $^{20}$ Ne 모두 20Gy 이상의 선량에서 캘러스 또는 신초유도가 없이 고사하였다. 배양 중인 캘러스는 $^{14}$ N 와 $^{20}$ Ne 이온 beam의 조사로 상대생장율이 감소하였고, 중이온 beam 조사 2주 후부터는 50 Gy 이상 선량 처리구에서 심하게 갈변하였다. 종자에 미치는 중이온 beam 조사의 영향으로 수분을 처리한 후 또는 수분 처리 없이 beam을 조사한 종자 모두에서 선종에 관계없이 선량이 증가함에 따라 발아를 지연시키며 유묘의 초기 생장을 억제하였다. 또한 수분을 흡수시킨 후 중이온 beam을 조사한 경우가 수분을 흡수시키지 않고 beam을 조사한 경우 보다 종자의 발아를 심하게 억제시켰다. 건조 상태의 종자에 중이온 beam을 조사한 경우 피조사체들의 특성과 생장의 초기단계에서 형태적 변이체를 검토하는데는 여과지를 이용한 방법보다 기내에서 배양하는 방법이 보다 효과적이었다.

We used Brewster's Law to examine the mechanism of liquid crystal (LC) alignment on an organic insulation layer when subjected to ion-beam irradiation. Brewster's Law implies that the maximum rate polarized ray on a slanted insulation layers on the substrate and it illustrates the dependence of polarization and themechanical structure on the ion beam irradiation process. The pretilt angle of nematic LCs on the organic insulation surface was about $1.13^{\circ}$ for an ion beam exposure of $45^{\circ}$ for 1 minute at 1800eV. This shows the dependence of LC alignment on the polarization ratio in a slanted organic insulation layer.
