A residual gas analyzer (RGA) system has been developed in this laboratory. Characteristics of the RGA system parts such as ion source, quadrupole mass filter and sensitivity are introduced. Some efforts have been made to improve performance of the two types of ion sources, open ion source (OIS) and closed ion source (CIS). A metal mesh was placed onto the electron beam entrance of the CIS anode tube to block the filament field penetration. Sensitivity of the CIS ion sources with and without the mesh was compared by mass spectra of SF6 gas (97% He base) introduced into the CIS anode through a needle valve. About ten-times improvement in the RGA sensitivity was observed for the CIS with the mesh in the electron entrance. Computer simulation showed an axi-symmetric anode potential distribution and improved focusing of the electron beam inside the anode tube with the mesh.

$SnO_2$ thin films were prepared on the Si substrate by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering and then surface of the films were irradiated with intense Ar ion beam to investigate the effect of Ar ion irradiation on the properties and hydrogen gas sensitivity of the films. From atomic force microscope observation, it is supposed that intense Ar bombardments promote rough surface and increase gas sensitivity of $SnO_2$ films for hydrogen gas. The films that Ar ion beam irradiated at 6 keV show the higher sensitivity than the films were irradiated at 3 keV and 9 keV. These results suggest that the $SnO_2$ thin films irradiated with optimized Ar ion beam are promising for practical high-performance hydrogen gas sensors.

This study was carried out to investigate the applicability of PVC membrane-based ion-selective electrodes for macronutrients (K, Ca, and N) by measuring of potassium, calcium, nitrate ions in hydroponic nutrient solution. The capabilities of two ion-selective membranes with varying chemical compositions for each ion were evaluated in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, and lifetime to choose sensing elements suitable for measuring typical ranges of nutrient concentrations in hydroponic solutions. The selected calcium and nitrate ion-selective membranes showed effectively sensitive responses to calcium and nitrate ions with lifetimes of 25 and 15 days, respectively. The addition of a cation additive to the potassium membrane cocktail allowed its sensitivity to be increased whereas its lifetime was reduced from 30 days to 10 days.

열산화시킨 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 저압화학기상성장법으로 $SiCl_{2}H_{2}$, $NH_{3}$ 및 $N_{2}O$ 기체를 사용하여 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드($Si_{x}O_{y}N_{z}$) 층을 제작하였다. 세 가지의 다른 조성이 기체 유속비($NH_{3}/N_{2}O$)를 각기 0.2, 0.5 및 2로 변화시키고 $SiCl_{2}H_{2}$의 기체 유속은 고정시킴으로써 얻어졌다. 엘립소메트리와 HFCV(High Frequency Capacitance-Voltage) 측정법을 채택하여 굴절율, 유전율 및 조성의 차이를 각각 조사했다. 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드는 내부에 포함된 실리콘 나이트라이드 성분량에 관계없이 용액 중에서 순수한 실리콘 나이트라이드와 유사한 안정성을 보유했다. 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 층 알칼리이온 감지성의 크기 순서는 실리콘 나이트라이드 성분량에 영향을 받았다. 보다 나은 알칼리이온 감지성이 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드의 벌크 내에 있는 실리콘 디옥시드의 성분량을 증가시킴으로써 얻어졌다.

Recently a lots of problems have observed in high densified and high integrated electronic components. One of them is ion migration phenomena, which induce the electrical short of electrical circuit. Ion migration phenomena has been observed in the field of exposing the specific environment and using for a long time. Also as the RoHS restriction was started in July 1st, 2006, Pb-free solder was utilized in electronics assemblies. In this case, it is very important to compatible between components and printed circuit board(PCB), thus surface treatment materials of PCB was changed to Sn, Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu, Cu. Therefore these new application become to need to reevaluate the sensitivity about electrochemical ion migration. This study was evaluated the occurrence time of electrochemical ion migration using by water drop test. We utilized PCB(printed circuit board) having a comb pattern as follows 0.1, 0.318, 0.5, 1.0 mm pattern distance. Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu and Sn-37Pb were electroplated on the comb pattern. 6.5V and 15.0V were applied in the comb pattern and then we measured the electrical short time causing by occurring the ion migration. In these results, we evaluate the sensitivity and derived the prediction models of ion migration occurrence time depending on the pattern materials, applied voltage and pattern spacing of PCB conductor.

Determination of chloride ion in concentrated NaOH solution by capillary electrophoresis has been studied. The analysis was performed by indirect UV absorption detection using chromate buffer at 254nm. The matrix effect of the sample has been observed so that the sensitivity in strong NaOH solutaion has decreased up to 10% of that in distilled water. The pH effect of the sample on the sensitivity of CE peaks has been investigated. The method for increasing the sensitivity have been investigated and the optimum pH and concentration of the buffer were 7.5 and 10mM, respectively. A cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB), was added to a buffer solution in order to reverse the electroosmotic flow(EOF) in the capillary. This results in a short analysis time and better peak shapes. Using this optimum condition, the determination of chloride ion in real environmental sample has been performed, which is captured in strong NaOH absorbent prepared for absorbing gas from chimney. The standard addition method has been applied for the quantitative analysis, and it was obtained the good reproducibility.

Polymeric electrodes for lead ion based on N,N'-bis-thiophen-2-ylmethylene-pyridine-2,6-diamine as an ion carrier were prepared. The membrane electrode (m-3) containing o-NPOE as a plasticizer and 50 mol% additive of ionophore gives an excellent Nernstian response (29.59 mV/decade) and the limit of detection of ?log a (M) = 5.74 to Pb2+ in Pb(NO3)2 solution at room temperature. The prepared electrode provided good sensitivity and outstanding selectivity and response for Pb2+ over a wide variety of other metal ions in pH 7.0 buffer solutions. The good sensitivity and selectivity towards lead ion are attributed to the strong complexation of lead ion to N,N'-bis-thiophen-2-ylmethylene-pyridine-2,6-diamine which has geometrically the proper cavity to coordinate to the ligand.

자동노출제어장치를 사용하는 흉부 후전 검사는 이온전리조의 선택에 따라 환자가 받는 피폭선량이 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 자동노출제어장치의 이온전리조의 선택에 따른 최적의 진단 영상을 획득하면서 피폭선량을 최소화하는 방안에 대해 연구하였다. 실험방법은 흉부 후전 검사와 동일한 조건으로 자동노출제어장치의 이온전리조 선택과 감도변화에 따라 실험하였다. 이온전리조의 상단 2개, 하단 1개의 센서를 on/off 선택에 따라 7가지의 경우로 나누어 각각 5회씩 측정하여 평균값을 구하고 피폭선량을 산출하였다. 영상평가는 변조전달함수, 최대신호 대 잡음비, 평균제곱근, 신호 대 잡음비, 대조도 대 잡음비, 평균대표준편차비를 각각 측정하여 평가를 시행하였다. 실험결과 피폭선량 평가에서 이온전리조 상단 2개를 선택한 경우가 다른 조합에 비해 가장 낮은 선량을 나타내었고, 해상력 평가결과로는 감도 625(High)에서 상단2개를 선택한 영상이 두 번째로 높은 공간주파수 1.343 lp/mm를 나타내었다. 상단 2개를 선택한 영상의 평균제곱근 결과값이 두 번째로 낮게 나타났으며, 신호 대 잡음비, 대조도 대 잡음비, 평균 대 표준편차비는 두 번째로 높은 결과값을 나타내었다. 그리고 감도가 증가함에 따라 피폭선량은 감소하였으며, 영상품질 측면에서도 보다 우수한 영상을 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서 피폭선량을 최소화하고, 최적의 의료 영상을 얻기 위해서는 감도 625(High)에서 이온전리조 상단 2개를 선택하는 것이 임상적으로 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트내로 침투하는 염소이온을 모니터링하기 위하여, 스크린프리트 기법으로 염소이온 반응형 부식센서를 개발하고, 센서의 세선 수가 부식반응도 및 민감도에 미치는 영향을 실험을 통하여 정량적으로 분석하였다. 개발된 부식센서를 이용하여 염소이온량에 따라 부식 반응도을 확인하였으며, 센서의 파괴정도에 따른 저항변화에서는 단선형 센서보다 다선형 센서에서 큰 저항 변화를 나타내었다. 또한, 부식센서는 NaCl 수용액의 농도가 높은 만큼 센서의 저항변화가 크고, 콘크리트 내에서 센서 종류에 따른 부식저항은 단선형보다 다선형에서 민감도가 높게 나타났으며, 센서의 매설깊이가 클수록 저항변화 사이클 (cycle)은 증가하였다. 이상의 결과로, 본 연구에서 개발된 부식센서는 염분에 대한 부식반응과 민감도, 저항의 변화를 감지할 수 있었으며, 특히 7세선이 우수한 결과를 나타내어, 염분의 침투정도를 모니터링 하는데 가장 적합하다고 판단된다.

For more than four decades, ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) sensors that respond to the change of surface potential on a membrane have been intensively investigated in the chemical, environmental, and biological spheres, because of their potential, in particular their compatibility with CMOS manufacturing technology. Here, we demonstrate a new type of ISFET with dual-gate (DG) structure fabricated on ultra-thin body (UTB), which highly boosts sensitivity, as well as enhancing chemical stability. The classic ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) has been confronted with chronic problems; the Nernstian response, and detection limit with in the Debye length. The super-coupling effects imposed on the ultra thin film serve to not only maximize sensitivity of the DG ISFET, but also to strongly suppress its leakage currents, leading to a better chemical stability. This geometry will allow the ISFET based biosensor platform to continue enhancement into the next decade.
