Ti/Ni multilayered films (MLF) are ideal for neutron optics particularly in neutron guides and focusing devices. This system also possesses the tendency of amorphization through a solid-state reaction (SSR). This behaviors are closely related to the electronic structures and both magneto-optical (MO) and optical properties of metals depend strongly on their electron energy structures. Mutual inter-diffusion of the Tin and Ni atoms in the MLF caused by a low temperature annealing should decrease the thickness of pure Ni, as well as change the chemical and atomic order in the reactive zone. The application of the MO spectroscopy to the study of SSR in the MLF allows us to obtain an additional information on the changes in the atomic and chemical orders in the interface region. The optical one has no restriction on the magnetic state of the constituent sublayers. Therefore, the changes in magnetic, MO and optical properties of the Ti/Ni MLF due to SSR can be expected. To the best of our knowledge, the MO and optical spectroscopies were not used for this purpose. SSR has been studied in the series of the Ti/Ni MLFs with bilayer periods of 0.65-22.2nm and constant ratio of the Ti to Ni sublayers thickness by using MO and optical spectroscopies as well as an x-ray diffraction. The experimental MO and optical spectra are compared with the computer-simulated spectra, assuming various interface models. The relative changes in the x-ray diffraction spectra and MO properties of the Ti/Ni MLF caused by annealing are bigger for the multilayers with "thick" sublayers, or the SSR with the formation of amorphous alloy takes place mainly in the Ti/Ni multilayers with "thick" sublayers, while in the nominal threshold thickness of the Ni-sublayer for the observation of the equatorial Kerr effect in the as-deposited and annealed Ti/Ni MLFs of about 3.0 and 4.5nm thick is explained by the formation of amorphous alloy during the deposition or the formation of the nonmagnetic alloyed regions between pure components as a result of the SSR. For the case of Ti/Ni MLF the MO approach is more sensitive for the determination of the thickness of the reacted zone, while x-ray diffraction is more useful for structural analyses.structural analyses.

XMCD (X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism)는 원형 편광 X-선의 helicity 방향이 시료의 자화 방향과 평행, 또는 반평행할 때 시료의 색이 바뀌는 현상, 즉 흡수율이 달라지는 현상이다. XMCD측정이 가지는 장점은 첫째, 이 실험이 특정 원소의 흡수선에서 이루어지기 때문에 시료 전체에서 특정 원소에 의한 자기적 성질을 분리해서 측정할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 같은 원소라 하더라도 다른 화학적 환경에 있는 원자들의 자기적 성질의 분리가 가능하다는 점이다. 이러한 성질로 인해 XMCD는 다른 원소들로 이루어진 다층 박막(GMR, TMR 등의 자기저항박막 구조물)의 층별 자기적 성질 연구 및 신자성물질의 자기적 성질의 고유성 연구에 많이 이용되었다. XMCD가 가지는 두 번째 장점은 sum rule을 통하여 자기 모멘트의 두 가지 성분인 궤도 모멘트(orbital moment)와 스핀 모멘트(spin moment)의 구별이 가능하다는 점이다. 이러한 장점은 수직자기 메모리 연구 및 스핀과 격자 간의 상호작용이 중요한 역할을 하는 다강체 등의 연구에 많이 이용되어 왔다. XMCD 측정이 또 다른 장점이 될 수 있는 것은 표면에 대단히 민감하다는 점이다. VSM, SQUID 등의 측정방법으로는 시료의 체적이 대단히 작은 수 ${\AA}$ 정도의 초박막에 대해서는 충분한 민감도를 가질 수 없다. 그러나, XMCD의 측정 깊이는 수십 ${\AA}$ 정도로 표면에 민감하기 때문에 이러한 초박막에 대해서도 충분한 민감도를 가질 수 있어서 SMOKE(Surface Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect)와 표면 자성연구에 있어서 독보적인 장치로 이용되어 왔다. 이러한 장점으로 인해 XMCD는 1990년대 이후 분광학적으로 활발히 이용되어 왔을 뿐만 아니라, 대단히 빠르고 신호가 큰 현상이기 때문에 최근 들어서는 자구(magnetic domain) 관찰 등을 목적으로 한 자기 현미경 및 자기현상의 동역학 연구에도 많이 응용되고 있다. 이 강연에서는 이러한 X-선 자기 원형 이색성 현상의 원리 및 실험 방법 등을 설명하겠다. 또한 몇 가지 X-선 자기 원형 이색성을 이용한 최근 몇 가지 연구도 소개하려 한다.

Magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) magnetometry was used to investigate magnetization reversal dynamics in 30-nm NiFe/15-nm FeMn, 15-nm FeMn/30-nm CoFe bilayers, and 30-nm NiFe/(2,10)-nm FeMn/30-nm CoFe trilayers. The in-plane magnetization components of each ferromagnetic layer, both parallel and perpendicular to the applied field, were separately determined by measuring the longitudinal and transverse MOKE hysteresis loops from both the front and back sides of the film for an oblique incident s-polarized beam. The magnetization of the FeMn/CoFe bilayer was reversed abruptly and symmetrically through nucleation and domain wall propagation, while that of the NiFe/FeMn bilayer was reversed asymmetrically with a dominant rotation. In the NiFe/FeMn/CoFe trilayers, the magnetic reversal of the two ferromagnetic layers proceeded via nucleation and domain wall propagation for 2-nm FeMn, but via asymmetric rotation for 10-nm FeMn. The exchange-biased ferromagnetic layers showed the magnetization reversal along the same path in the film plane for the decreasing and increasing field branches from transverse MOKE hysteresis loops, which can be qualitatively explained by the theoretical model of the exchange-biased ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic systems.

The aim of this study was to establish reproducible method for measurements of radiopacity and to investigate the level of radiopacity of root canal sealers. The experiments were performed in two parts. In the first part, densitometric readings were performed using an aluminum step wedge as a reference at variable voltages and exposure times. Then standard curves for the aluminum step wedge were compared to comprehend the effect of voltage and exposure time. In the second part, on the basis of these results, appropriate conditions for exposure were adopted for standardized measurements of radiopacity. Under standardized set of conditions, densitometric measurements of ten root canal sealers and one gutta-percha point were performed and the levels of radiopacity referable to an equivalent thickness of aluminum were compared. The following results were obtained : 1. At 50 and 60 kVp, increasing the exposure time caused a decrease in the slope of the standard curve for the aluminum step wedge. However, at 70 kVp increasing the exposure time causing a parallel shift of the standard curve to the right. 2. At constant exposure time, increasing the voltage caused a decrease in the slope of the standard curve. 3. The radiopacity of root canal sealers and a gutta-percha point varied between 2.43 mm Al and 9.20 mm Al equivalent. 4. All the root canal sealers had radiopacities more than dentin, and the radiopacity of the gutta-percha point was approximately 5 times as much as that of dentin in terms of equivalent thickness of aluminum. 5. The AH26 had radiopacity more than the gutta-percha point, and the radiopacities of ZOE, Vitapex, Canals, Kerr PCS, Nogenol were similar to that of the gutta-percha point, and Tubliseal, Apatite II, Apatite III, Silapex were less radiopaque than the gutta-percha point.

Objectives: This study evaluated the effects of the resin thickness on the microhardness and optical properties of bulk-fill resin composites. Materials and Methods: Four bulk-fill (Venus Bulk Fill, Heraeus Kulzer; SDR, Dentsply Caulk; Tetric N-Ceram Bulk Fill, Ivoclar vivadent; SonicFill, Kerr) and two regular resin composites (Charisma flow, Heraeus Kulzer; Tetric N-Ceram, Ivoclar vivadent) were used. Sixty acrylic cylindrical molds were prepared for each thickness (2, 3 and 4 mm). The molds were divided into six groups for resin composites. The microhardness was measured on the top and bottom surfaces, and the colors were measured using Commission Internationale d'Eclairage (CIE) $L^*a^*b^*$ system. Color differences according to the thickness and translucency parameters and the correlations between the microhardness and translucency parameter were analyzed. The microhardness and color differences were analyzed by ANOVA and Scheffe's post hoc test, and a student t-test, respectively. The level of significance was set to ${\alpha}=0.05$. Results: The microhardness decreased with increasing resin thickness. The bulk-fill resin composites showed a bottom/top hardness ratio of almost 80% or more in 4 mm thick specimens. The highest translucency parameter was observed in Venus Bulk Fill. All resin composites used in this study except for Venus Bulk Fill showed linear correlations between the microhardness and translucency parameter according to the thickness. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, the bulk-fill resin composites used in this study can be placed and cured properly in the 4 mm bulk.

We have studied magnetic properties of Co/Pt multilayered films which have attracted great interest as high-density magneto-optical (MO) recording media due to their good MO properties. For this study, [Pt(45 )/Co(35 )]$\times$8 films were deposited with a Pt buffer layer of 60 on Si(100) substrate by alternating electron-beam evaporation in a high vacuum and were ion beam mixed by using 80keV Ar+ at 25$0^{\circ}C$. Especially, an external magnetic field was added to help changing magnetic property during ion beam mixing (IBM). The intermixing of Co and Pt layers after IBM was confirmed with Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The MO property of the film was measured with magneto-optical Kerr spectrometer and the change of magnetic easy axis in the film plane was observed from Ker loop data. This anomalous result might be correlated with the change of atomic structure due to the intermixing effect.

Objective: This retrospective cohort study aimed to assess and compare the accuracy of 3 different Invisalign^® treatment regimens in terms of variations of aligner change frequency and type of aligner material in achieving maxillary dental buccal expansion. Methods: Altogether, 120 adult patients whose treatment involved maxillary dental expansion with Invisalign^® were included. The patients were divided into 3 groups, with each group comprising 40 patients as follows: SmartTrack^® 1-week changes (ST1), SmartTrack^® 2-week changes (ST2), and EX30^® 2-week changes (EX2). The groups were assessed by comparing actual changes achieved with those prescribed by ClinCheck^®. The rates of clinically significant inaccuracies (CSI) observed for buccal expansion (≥ 0.5 mm) and buccolingual inclination (≥ 2°) during expansion were then determined. Results: In terms of expansion, the ST1 group demonstrated the highest CSI rate at all tooth levels, whereas the ST2 group had the lowest rate of CSI and the lowest mean inaccuracy for each tooth level. In terms of buccolingual inclination, the ST1 group had the highest CSI rate across all tooth levels, whereas the EX2 group had the lowest CSI rate at all tooth levels except for the canine level where the ST2 group had the lowest CSI rate. A tendency toward overexpression of buccal crown inclination, and underexpression of buccal expansion was observed at all tooth levels. Conclusions: Two-week aligner change regimens offer improved accuracy compared with 1-week aligner changes. SmartTrack^® 2-week changes were the most accurate for buccal expansion, whereas EX30^® 2-week changes were the most accurate for buccolingual inclination.

Purpose: The effect of accelerated aging on color stability of various dual-cured self-adhesive resin cements were evaluated in this study. Materials and Methods: Color stability was examined using three different brands of dual-cured self-adhesive resin cements: G-CEM LinkAce (GC America), MaxCem Elite (Kerr), and PermaCem 2.0 (DMG) with the equivalent color shade. Each resin cement was filled with Teflon mold which has 6 mm diameter and 2 mm thickness. Each specimen was light cured for 20 seconds using light emitting diode (LED) light curing unit. In order to evaluate the effect of accelerated aging on color stability, color parameters (Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage, CIE $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$) and color differences (${\Delta}E^*$) were measured at three times: immediately, after 24 hours, and after thermocycling. The $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$ values were analyzed using Friedman test and ${\Delta}E^*$ values on the effect of 24 hours and accelerated aging were analyzed using t-test. These values were compared with the limit value of color difference (${\Delta}E^*=3.7$) for dental restoration. One-way ANOVA and Scheff's test (P<0.05) were performed to analyze each ${\Delta}E^*$ values between cements at each test period. Result: There was statistically significant difference in comparison of color specification ($L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$) values after accelerated aging except $L^*$ value of G-CEM LinkAce (P<0.05). After 24 hours, color difference (${\Delta}E^*$) values were ranged from 2.47 to 3.48 and $L^*$ values decreased and $b^*$ values increased in all types of cement and MaxCem Elite had high color stability (P<0.05). After thermocycling, color change's tendency of cement was varied and color difference (${\Delta}E^*$) values were ranged from 0.82 to 2.87 and G-CEM LinkAce had high color stability (P<0.05). Conclusion: Color stability of dual-cured self-adhesive resin cements after accelerated aging was evaluated and statistically significant color changes occurred within clinically acceptable range.

연구목적: 본 연구는 간접 레진수복시 상아질 접착제의 중합 여부가 레진인레이와 상아질간의 미세인장결합강도와 결합계면의 형태에 미치는 영향을 공초점 현미경 관찰을 통하여 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 24개의 발거된 대구치를 절단하여 교합면 상아질을 노출시켰다. 수복 방법에 따라 크게 간접 레진수복과 직접 레진수복의 두 군으로 나누었다. 간접 레진수복군은 임시 수복하여 1주일 후, 상아질 접착 과정에 따라 4군(OB-C와 OB-NC군, OS-C와 OS-NC군)으로 나누었다. 간접 레진수복군은 산부식 처리된 상아질면에 OptiBond FL (Kerr) 또는 One-Step (Bisco) 상아질 접착제를 중합 여부에 따라 나누어 적용하였다. 처리된 상아질면에 제작된 3 mm 높이의 레진 인레이(Tescera, Bisco)를 Variolink II (Ivoclar Vivadent)를 사용하여 제조사의 지시에 따라 합착하였다. 직접 레진수복군은 산부식 처리된 상아질면에 상아질 접착 후, 복합레진 (Estelite${\Sigma}$, Tokuyama)으로 즉시 수복하였다(OB-D군, OS-D군). 수복을 마친 모든 치아는 24시간 후, 미세인장 결합 강도 평가와 공초점 레이저 주사 현미경 관찰(CLSM)을 시행하였다. 결과: 간접 레진수복군은 직접 레진수복군에 비하여 낮은 미세인장결합강도를 나타내었으며, 상아질 접착제를 광중합한 군(OB-C군, OS-C군)이 광중합을 시행하지 않은 군(OB-NC군, OS-NC군)에 비하여 높은 미세인장결합강도를 나타내었다. 접착 계면에 대한 CLSM 관찰에서 상아질 접착제를 광중합한 군에서 더 분명하고 균일한 혼성층이 관찰되었다. 상아질 접착제를 광중합하지 않은 군에서는 혼성층이 불분명하거나 거의 관찰되지 않았다. 결론: 간접 레진수복물의 합착시 레진시멘트의 적용 전에 상아질 접착제의 광중합은 분명하고 균일한 혼성층의 형성하며, 이는 결합강도의 향상에 기여한다.
