  • The relative reaction rates were measured in the TRIGA Mark II reactor core and analyzed to obtain the neutron spectrum parameters; relative neutron temperature T$^{n}$ and epithermal index (equation omitted) Measurements were made with the central thimble and the F2 position containing the light water. The relative neutron temperature was represented by the activation ratio of Lu-Mn, and the epithermal index was measured by Au-Mn foil activation. The multichannel analyzer was used to measure the relative ${\gamma}$-rays of the detector foils. The results were compared with the calculated values.

  • A simple multi-channel spectrum analyzer using an InGaAs array sensor and a diffraction grating is proposed and developed for high-capacity optical transport networks. With the developed multichannel spectrum analyzer, we could measure signal power, wavelength, and optical signal-to-noise ratio of each channel for multi-channel optical signals with 100 GHz and 50 GHz channel spacing, simultaneously. We could measure each channel power and wavelength with a deviation of less than 0.2 dB and 0.063 nm, respectively. We have obtained optical signal-to-noise ratio with a deviation of less than 1.0 dB compared with conventional optical spectrum analyzer in the wide input power range between -42 dBm and -27 dBm per channel.

  • There are lots of problem which are delaminations and partial discharge of insulation materials in high-voltage rotating machines caused by mechanical, electrical and thermal aging. Several experiments have been aiming at finding the useful diagnostic parameters from the partial discharge characteristics by applying a new measurement techniques. This paper deals with the partial discharge characteristics (pulse height, pulse angle, pulse frequency spectrum and time interval), which may be a useful diagnostic concept in predicting insulation condition of mica/epoxy composite insulation materials, by using several measurement equipments (frequency spectrum analyzer. multichannel analyzer and time interval analyzer).

  • The use of digital systems in radiation science has been increased last years in the different knowledge areas, as a detectors, spectrometry, spectroscopy, simulation, etc. This manuscript presents the design and implementation of a low-cost, fully portable multi-channel analyzer for nuclear spectrometry (in situ). The development is based on a 32-bit microcontroller with ARM Cortex-M7, this design is able to digitize and analyze pulses from a radiation detector without the need to transform the input signal with some filter, obtains the maximum height of each of the digitized pulses, segmenting the information into channels to form a histogram and visualizing the LCD screen incorporated in the system. A continuous digitization methodology was used, which is in charge of the DMA and an ADC with a resolution of 12 bits at a speed of 3.6 MSPS. The system has a compact design and can open and save spectra in an SD memory built into the system. The MCA in MCU was tested with a NaI(Tl) Scintillation radiation detector, which allowed us to determine that the spectra obtained are similar compared to commercial MCA's. The results obtained show that the MCA in MCU is efficient for nuclear spectrometry, in addition to being very economical and low power consumption.

  • A fiber-optic radiation sensor was fabricated using a sensing probe, a plastic optical fiber, a photomultiplier tube, and a multichannel analyzer for gamma-ray spectroscopy. As an inorganic scintillator of the sensing probe, a LYSO crystal was used. In this study, we obtained the relationship between the photon counts of the fiber-optic radiation sensor and the activity of the radioactive isotope. In addition, the gamma-ray energy spectra were also measured using a fiber-optic radiation sensor to discriminate species of gamma-ray emitters.

  • In-situ, 실시간 측정을 위해 상업화 모형의 He-Ne 타원해석기 및 고속 분광 타원해석기(SE, Spectoscopic Ellipsometer)를 제작하였다. 후자의 경우 1024개의 화소를 가진 광학 다채널분석기 (OMA, Optical Multichannel Analyzer)를 이용한 RP형 분광타원해석기로써 1.5∼5.0eV의 측정 파장대역을 가지며, 한 스펙트럼의 측정시간은 약 100msec이다. cos 와 tanΨ의 정확도는 각각 약0.01이하로 측정되었다. 이러한 in-situ 타원해석기들을 사용하여 Au, ZnS 박막들의 성장 초기단계에서의 박막구조의 변화, 성장속도 그리고 HF식각후의 Si 자연산화층(SiO2)의 초기 성장과정을 밝히고 SiO2/c-Si 시료의 온도를 비 접촉적, 비간석적으로 기존의 방법에 의한 결과와 비교하였다.

  • A new sensitive fluorimetric method for the determination of N-methylcarbamates, a class of well known insecticides, based on the derivatization with 7-chloro-4-nitrosobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD-Cl) has been developed. Unreacted NBD-Cl was eluted ahead of derivatized carbamates from C-18 bonded column. An argon ion laser was used as an excitation source of chromatographic eluents and its fluorescence signal was monitored with optical multichannel analyzer. The detection limits of various carbamates were about 100 pg range and the working curves were linear to $10^4-10^5$ nanogram ranges.

  • An analytical applicability of the fluorescence detection with an optical multichannel analyzer to organic dyes was studied in this work. Continuous acquisition of spectra was possible with the use of a microcomputer. The maximum acquisition rate of a spetrum with 70-point average was about 3 seconds. Floppy discs were used to store data for later use in processing. Laser induced fluorescence detector in High Performance Liquid Chromatography was chosen for an application. Fluorescein below $10^{-15}g$ was detected satisfactorily using this system. With the help of microcomputer, three dimensional chromatograms of time-wavelength-intensity were obtained.
