Based on the escape cone concepts, high-brightness light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been analyzed. In AlGaAs or InGaAlP LEDs, photon absorption in the ohmic region under the electrode is known to be significant. Thus, ins general, a thick window layer (WL) and a transparent substrate (TS) would minimize photon shielding by the electrodes and considerably improve photon output coupling efficiency. However, the schemes do not seem to be necessary in InGaN system. Photon absorption in ohmic contact to a wide bandgap semiconductor such as GaN may be negligible and, as a result, the significant photon shielding by the electrodes will not degrade the photon output coupling efficiency so much. The photon output coupling efficiency estimated in InGaN LEDs is about 2.5 - 2.8 times that of the conventional high-brightness LED structures based on both WL and TS schemes. As a result, the extenal quantum efficiency in InGaN LEDs is as high as 9% despite the presumably very low internal quantum efficiency.

의료기관에서 많이 사용되는 방사선 차폐 재료인 납을 대처할 수 있는 플라스틱 제품으로 PVC를 선택하였다. 방사선 차폐 의복 이외에 저선량 영역에서 의료기기 부품, 산업용 차폐 재료로 사용이 가능한지 평가하고자 한다. 상업용 PVC는 밀도가 3.68 g/㎠ 으로 재료의 유연성과 경제성 등 일정 방사선 영역에서는 충분한 차폐 효과를 긍정적으로 기대할 수 있으며, 다양한 형태로 변형이 가능하고, 경량의 차폐벽으로 사용할 수 있다. 의료기관에서 임상 검사 시 사용되는 의료방사선 영역 대에서 3mm PVC 5장을 두께로 조절하여 차폐 성능을 실험하였다. 의료방사선의 관전압 기준으로 실효에너지에 대한 차폐 성능을 평가하였다. PVC는 두께가 두꺼울수록 관전압과 실효에너지가 낮을수록 차폐효과는 크게 나타났으며, 차폐효과는 12mm 두께에 관전압 80kVp에서 70%의 차폐효과가 있었다. 따라서 PVC 재료의 차폐효과는 두께의 의존율이 높게 나타났다. 앞으로는 차폐 성능을 높이면서 얇고 가벼운 친환경 제품을 만들기 위한 지속적인 연구가 필요하다.

The novelty in the present search, the Soda-Lime-Silica (SLS) glass waste to prepare free lead glass shielding was used in order to limit the accumulation of glass waste, which requires extensive time to decompose. This also saves on the consumption of pure SiO₂, which is a finite resource. Furthermore, the combining of BaO with Bi₂O₃ into a glass network leads to increased optical properties and improved attenuation. The UV-Visible Spectrophotometer was used to investigate the optical properties and the radiation shielding properties were reported for current glass samples utilizing the PhysX/PDS online software. The optical property results indicate that when BaO content increases in glass structure, the Urbach energy ΔE, and refractive index n increases while the energy optical band gap E_opt decreases. The result of the metallisation criteria (M) revealed that the present glass samples are nonmetallic (insulators). Furthermore, the radiation shielding parameter findings suggest that when BaO was increased in the glass structure, the linear attenuation coefficient and effective atomic number (Z_eff) rose. But the half-value layer HVL declined as the BaO concentration grew. According to the research, the glass samples are non-toxic, transparent to visible light, and efficient radiation shielding materials. The Ba5 sample is considered the best among all the samples due to its higher attenuation value and lower HVL and MFP values, which make it a suitable candidate as transparent glass shield shielding.

Because High efficiency electric vehicles use electrical energy by an power source, radiated noise at high voltage cable bring on problems at other electric/electronic components. But, in order to insure shielding effectiveness increasing braid density infinitely, it is possible that the cost is more than one third of cost of manufacturing cable. Accordingly in this paper, we studied design of cost-effective and light shield cable using dual shielding system of braid and al-foil.

$TiO_2$-embedded expanded polystyrene (TiEPS) balls with powdered $TiO_2$ particles embedded on the surface of EPS were developed, and the growth inhibition of Chlorella ellipsoidea, a green algae, was evaluated. The experiment was conducted using four reactors with various conditions of (A) natural sunlight, (B) natural sunlight + TiEPS balls, (C) dark, and (D) dark + TiEPS balls on the roof of the building during five days. Based on the analysis of cell number, cell morphology, concentrations of chlorophyll-a and phaeopigments, both surface reactions in heterogeneous photocatalysis and light shielding could inhibit the growth of C. ellipsoidea. The highly reactive hydroxyl radicals ($OH{\cdot}$) from TiEPS balls degraded the lipid cell membrane through the peroxidation reaction with the light shielding, eventually resulting in cell inactivation. Although dominant inhibitory effects on the growth of C. ellipsoidea were ambiguous, TiEPS balls were feasible to prevent and inhibit the excessive growth of algae in eutrophic water body.

Reduced tungsten bronze nanoparticles of ternary and quaternary compounds were prepared by adding sodium and cesium to crystal structures of tungsten trioxides ($Na_xCs_{0.33-x}WO_3$, x = 0, 0.11) while maintaining the overall alkali metal fraction at 0.33, in an attempt to control near infrared (NIR) shielding property in the particular wavelength range of 780 to 1200 nm. The structure and composition analysis of the quaternary compound, $Na_{0.11}Cs_{0.22}WO_3$, revealed that 93.1% of the hexagonal phase was formed, suggesting that both alkali metals were mainly inserted in hexagonal channel. The NIR shielding property for $Na_{0.11}Cs_{0.22}WO_3$ was remarkable, as this material demonstrated efficient transmittance of visible light up to 780 nm and enhancement in NIR shielding because of the blue-shifted absorption maximum in comparison to $Cs_{0.33}WO_3$.

Barium Bismuth Oxide Borate (BBOB) has been synthesized for the first time using solution combustion technique. SEM analysis reveal flower shape of the nanoparticles. The formation of the nanoparticles has been confirmed through XRD & FTIR studies which gives the physical and chemical structure of the novel material. The UV light absorption is observed in the range 200-300 nm. The present study highlights the radiation shielding ability of BBOB for different radiations like X/Gamma rays, Bremsstrauhlung and neutrons. The gamma shielding efficiency is comparable to that of lead in lower energy range and lesser than lead in the higher energy range. The bremsstrauhlung exposure constant is comparably larger for BBOB NPs than that of concrete and steel however it is lesser than that of lead. The beauty of BBOB nanoparticles lies in, high absorption of radiations and low emission of secondary radiations when compared to lead. In addition, the neutron shielding parameters like scattering length, absorption and scattering cross sections of BBOB are found to be much better than lead, steel and concrete. Thus, BBOB nanoparticles are highly efficient in absorbing X/Gamma rays, neutrons and bremsstrauhlung radiations.

본 연구에서는 표면처리된 Ga-doped ZnO (GZO)를 사용해서 태양열 차단 코팅제를 제조하였으며, 표면처리 화합물의 종류와 처리조건에 따른 입자의 분산성, 가시광선투과율, 자외선차단율, 적외선차단율, 단열특성 등에 대해서 고찰하였다. IPA나 아크릴 바인더를 사용했을 때에는 무기산화물 입자의 분산특성이 낮았으나, 무기산화물 입자를 우레탄(우레아)기와 아크릴기 그리고 실리카를 포함하는 하이브리드 화합물로 표면처리한 경우에는 입자의 분산성이 향상되어 침전되는 입자가 거의 발생되지 않았고 가시광선 투과율과 헤이즈(haze)가 크게 향상되었다. 그리고 실제 단열특성을 평가하기 위해서 단열평가 장치와 sunlamp를 사용하였으며, 평가결과 열차단 필름을 사용한 경우 PET 필름 자체만 사용했을 때와 비교해서 내부온도가 $4.8^{\circ}C$ 이상 낮은 것으로 확인되었다.

The arc sensor has been most widely used for weld seam tracking through welding current or voltage variation. In this work, the relation between the arc light intensity and welding condition is investigated using heat balance in the Plasma for its possible application to seam tracking in the GMAW process. The arc light intensity is derived to be the function of the arc length and welding current Experiments are carried out to verify the proposed heat balance model. Performances of least square and integration methods to process the signals for seam tracking are compared experimentally. Predicted arc light intensity shows reasonably good agreement with experimental results. The weld seam is successfully tracked through the arc light intensity. The least square and integration methods demonstrate almost same performance of seam tracking with $CO_2$gas shielding.
