In this paper, we calculate the light photons collection efficiency of large-volume plastic scintillation detector mainly used for radiation portal monitor (RPM). A Monte Carlo light photon transport code, DETECT2000, were used to quantitatively evaluate light collection efficiency of plastic scintillation detector. DETECT2000 calculated the placement of light collection efficiency based on the energy spectrum. We calculated the light collection efficiency relative to the position of the energy spectrum that proportional to the placement of the source. The $850{\times}285{\times}65mm^3$ size of polyvinyl toluene (PVT) scintillator was used for measurements. Through DETECT2000 simulation, the light collection efficiency of $5{\times}5$ arrays were calculated and verification was performed by comparing with experimentally measured. And then, the corrected MCNP simulation by applying the light collection efficiency in $21{\times}13$ arrays was compared and analyzed. Comparing the Monte Carlo simulation with measured results, it shows an average difference of 10.1% in $5{\times}5$ arrays. Particularly, about twice of the difference was found in the edge of first column, which coupled with PMT. In whole $5{\times}5$ array, the overall ratio was the same except for the first column. And then comparing the energy spectra of the $21{\times}13$ array with and without the light collection efficiency, it shows a difference of 6.69% in Compton edge area. The DETECT2000 based light collection efficiency simulation showed well agreement with the point source experiment. And comparing with measured energy spectra, we could compare the differences according to whether or not the light collection efficiency was applied. As a results, it is possible to increase the accuracy and reliability of Monte Carlo simulation results by pre-calculating the light collection efficiency according to the PVT geometry by using the DETECT2000.

The method of DNS data collection is one of the most important parts of DNS simulation. DNS data contains a lot of information. When it comes to analyzing the DNS security issues by simulation on the cyber range with customized features, we only need some of them, such as IP address, domain name information, etc. Therefore, the data we need are supposed to be light-weighted and easy to manipulate. Many researchers have designed different schemes to obtain their datasets, such as LDplayer and Thales system. However, existing solutions consume excessive computational resources, which are not necessary for DNS security simulation. In this paper, we propose a light-weighted active data collection method to prepare the datasets for DNS simulation on cyber range. We evaluate the performance of the method and prove that it can collect DNS data in a short time and store the collected data at a lower storage cost. In addition, we give two examples to illustrate how our method can be used in a variety of applications.

A daylighting system includes three parts; light collector, light transformer and light distributor. A DBLP(Double blind light pipe) daylighting system consists of a double blind light collector, a mirror duct type light transformer and a prism film light pipe distributor. The double blinds for a light collection are used to track the sun's altitude and azimuth movements throughout the day. Behind both sets of blinds is the light transformer, which is based on a rectangular cone shaped light duct. The light transformer was designed to efficiently deliver the light into the light pipe within a 30 degree radial spread for the efficient light into the distributor. In this study, DBLP system efficiency was simulated, evaluated and optimized by Tracepro as a popular ray trace light design simulation program. The results indicated that DBLP system efficiency evaluated a maximum 22.4% in case of Spring/Fall season solar noon time. While the overall average system efficiency in the morning and afternoon is evaluated about 10%.

The thallium-doped sodium iodide [NaI(Tl)] scintillation detector is preferred as a gamma spectrometer in many fields because of its general advantages. A silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) has recently been developed and its application area has been expanded as an alternative to photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). It has merits such as a low operating voltage, compact size, cheap production cost, and magnetic resonance compatibility. In this study, an array of SiPMs is used to develop an NaI(Tl) gamma spectrometer. To maintain detection efficiency, a commercial NaI(Tl) $2^{\prime}{\times}2^{\prime}$ scintillator is used, and a light guide is used for the transport and collection of generated photons from the scintillator to the SiPMs without loss. The test light guides were fabricated with polymethyl methacrylate and reflective materials. The gamma spectrometer systems were set up and included light guides. Through a series of measurements, the characteristics of the light guides and the proposed gamma spectrometer were evaluated. Simulation of the light collection was accomplished using the DETECT 97 code (A. Levin, E. Hoskinson, and C. Moison, University of Michigan, USA) to analyze the measurement results. The system, which included SiPMs and the light guide, achieved 14.11% full width at half maximum energy resolution at 662 keV.

This study is to eliminate the need for conventional high density plant factory's artificial light source such as LED to reduce the initial investment of the light source installation as well as the operation cost. Use of solar light could enhance the quality of the vegetables similar to those grown in the natural environment. Provision of solar light into the multilayer vegetable cultivation facilities and collecting maximum and sustainable sunlight without too much loss by tracing solar path and properly distributing it through careful control during daytime are crucial for realizing the investigated rooftop light shelf system for multi-layered vegetable cultivation. In this study, we developed an innovative way of effectively allocating sunlight inside even to otherwise shaded zone of a multi-layer vegetable cultivation facility. To prove the effectiveness of the system's sunlight collection and distribution capability, both simulation and experiment in Daejeon are performed and the outcome is analyzed.

플래시 메모리는 부피가 작고, 가볍고, 소비전력이 낮으며 입출력이 빨라 최근 소형기기의 저장 장치로 널리 사용이 되고 있다. 그러나 플래시 메모리는 지움 연산을 수반하는 가비지 컬렉션을 수행해야 한다. 지움 연산은 속도가 느리고, 각 블록마다 지움 연산 횟수가 제한이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 지움 연산 횟수와 각 블록의 지움 횟수 편차를 줄이는데 초점을 맞춘 균등화 정책을 제안한다. 따라서 플래시 메모리의 페이지 사용률에 기반을 둔 두 가지 가비지 컬렉션 수행 모드를 정의하고 그리고 각 모드에 대해 다른 지움 비용을 계산하여 전체 지움 연산 횟수와 각 블록의 지움 횟수 편차를 최소화하는 가비지 컬렉션 기법을 제안한다. 추가로 가비지 컬렉션 연산 시간을 최소화하기 위해 그룹 관리 기법을 제안해 보다 빠른 수행 시간을 가질 수 있도록 한다. 실험 결과 제안하는 정책은 기존의 Greedy 와 CAT 기법의 장점들을 동시에 나타내었고, 지움 횟수 편차를 평균 85% 감소 시켰고 가비지 컬렉션 수행 시간을 최대 6% 단축 시켰다

NAND 플래시 메모리는 부피가 작고, 가볍고, 소비전력이 낮으며 입출력이 빠르고 집적도가 높아 최근 임베디드 기기들에 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 NAND 플래시 메모리는 지움 연산을 수반하는 가비지 컬렉션 연산을 수행해야 한다. 게다가 지움 연산은 속도가 느리고, 각 블록마다 지움 연산 횟수가 제한이 있다. 따라서 제안하는 가비지 컬렉션 기법은 전체 지움 연산 횟수와 각 블록의 지움 횟수 편차를 감소시키고, 가비지 컬렉션 수행 시간을 최소화하는데 초점을 맞춘다. NAND 플래시 메모리는 유효 페이지, 무효 페이지, 빈 페이지로 구성되어 있다. 제안하는 기법은 페이지들의 비율을 이용해 가비지 컬렉션의 수행 시기를 결정하고 대상 블록을 선택한다. 그리고 할당 기법과 그룹 관리기법을 추가적으로 구현하였다. 실험 결과 제안한 정책은 기존의 Greedy나 CAT 기법에 비해 전체 지움 횟수를 최소화 하면서, 최대 82% 지움 횟수 편차를 감소시켰고, 최대 75%의 가비지 컬렉션 수행 시간을 단축시켰다.

미세 섬광 픽셀을 사용하여 섬광체 블록을 구성할 경우 섬광체 블록 가장 자리에 위치한 섬광 픽셀들에서 중첩되어 영상화되는 결과가 나타난다. 이를 해결하기 위해서 섬광체 블록과 광센서 사이에 광가이드를 삽입하여 모든 섬광 픽셀들의 영상을 분리하여 획득하였다. 그러나 광가이드를 통해 빛의 손실이 발생할 수 있으며, 이는 에너지 분해능의 감소로 결국 영상의 질에 영향을 미치게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 광가이드의 옆면에 반사체를 사용하여 더욱 우수한 섬광 픽셀의 분리가 가능하며, 빛 손실을 최소화해 우수한 에너지 분해능을 확보할 수 있는 검출기를 설계하였다. 이전 연구와 비교 평가를 위해 빛 시뮬레이션이 가능한 DETECT2000을 통해 평면 영상을 획득하여, 분리 정도 및 빛 수집율을 평가하였다. 광가이드의 옆면에 반사체를 사용할 경우, 광가이드의 물질에 상관없이 모든 물질에서 매우 우수한 분리 정도를 나타내었으며, 이는 이전 연구에 비해 더욱 우수한 분리 결과를 나타내었다. 또한 빛 수집율은 반사체 적용하였을 경우, 그렇지 않은 경우에 비해 5배 이상 우수한 수집율을 보였다. 본 검출기를 소동물용 양정자방출단층 촬영기기에 적용할 경우 우수한 공간분해능 및 에너지 분해능을 통해 우수한 영상의 질을 확보할 수 있을 것이다.

In the structure of ZnO/nip-SiC: H/metal substrate amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells, the effects of inserting a rear textured ZnO in the p-SiC:H/metal interface and a graded bandgap buffer layer in the i/p-SiC:H have been analysed by computer simulation. The incident light was taken to have an intensity of $100mW/cm^2$(AM-1). The thickness of the a-Si:H n, ${\delta}$-doped a-SiC:H p, and buffer layers was assumed to be $200{\AA},\;66{\AA}$, and $80{\AA}$, respectively. The scattering coefficients of the front and back ZnO were taken to be 0.2 and 0.7, respectively. Inserting the rear buffer layer significantly increases the open circuit voltage($V_{oc}$) due to reduction of the i/p interface recombination rate. The use of textured ZnO markedly improves collection efficiency in the long wavelengths( above ${\sim}550nm$ ) by back scattering and light confinement effects, resulting in dramatic enhancement of the short circuit current density($J_{sc}$). By using the rear buffer and textured ZnO, the i-layer thickness of the ceil for obtaining the maximum efficiency becomes thinner(${\sim}2500{\AA}$). From these results, it is concluded that the use of textured ZnO and buffer layer at the backside of the ceil is very effective for enhancing the conversion efficiency and reducing the degradation of a-Si:H pin-type solar cells.
