정상적인 부화 여부를 판별하기 위한 1차 검란은 일반적으로 5일~7일 이후에 시행된다. 미부화란을 이보다 더 빠른 시간 안에 검출할 경우 부화에 소요되는 에너지의 감소 효과 및 미부화란을 다른 용도로 활용하는 것을 기대할 수 있다. 시중에서 쉽게 구입할 수 있는 산란계인 하이라인 브라운 품종의 유정란 29개와 인위적인 미부화란을 만들기 위한 동일 품종의 무정란 11개를 사용하였으며 $38^{\circ}C$, 70% 조건의 항온항습기에서 96시간 동안 부화하였다. 스펙트럼 획득 장치의 광원은 녹색영역을 발광하는 LED램프와 일반 할로겐 광원을 별도로 사용하였으며 스펙트로미터는 VIS/NIR 영역인 520~1,180nm영역과 NIR영역인 900~1,700nm영역의 것을 사용하였다. 부화 시작 전과 부화 시작 후 1일 간격으로 각각 1개의 샘플에 대한 1개의 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 측정 영역은 LED광원을 이용한 경우는 520~1,1800nm, 할로겐광원을 이용한 경우에는 520~1,180nm와 900~1,700nm이었다. 정상 부화여부는 4일차에서 할란하여 확인하였고, 측정 일자별로 PLS-DA분석법을 이용한 판별 모델을 개발하였다. 4일차에서 유정란 29개 중 11개가 정상 부화하였고, 18개는 미부화하였다. 3일차에서 판별 모델의 정확도는 LED광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 100%, 할로겐 광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 70%, 할로겐 광원의 NIR영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 70%였다. 4일차에서 판별 모델의 정확도는 LED광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 100%, 할로겐 광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 90%, 할로겐 광원의 NIR영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 100%였다. 부화 3일차는 정상 부화할 경우 피가 생성되는 시기이다. 피가 형성된 이후의 부화 여부를 판단하는 광원으로는 할로겐램프보다 LED램프를 사용하는 것이 더 적합한 것으로 나타났다.

Recently, infrared (IR) and near-infrared (NIR) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were widely used for home medical applications owing to its low output power and wide exposed area for curing. For deep penetration of the light under the skin, multiple LEDs with wavelengths of 700~10,000 nm were located on a flexible printed circuit board. When multiple wavelengths of LEDs were soldered on a circuit board, the lifetime of LED module highly depends on LEDs with a short lifetime. The mean time to failure (MTTF) was able to calculate with the experimental results under high temperature and the Arrhenius model. The results of this study could help companies to approve the warranty of LED modules and its product.

The SiO₂/TiO₂ multilayer thin films used for narrow band pass filter were fabricated using E-beam evaporation method. The narrow band pass filter was used to enhance the resolution of spectroscopy and sensor applications with near infrared (NIR) light source. The narrow band pass filter with multilayer thin films were designed with Essential Macleod program. The multilayers of SiO₂/TiO₂ with 32 layers were deposited on the silicon encapsulation of IR with peak wavelength (λ_p) of 660 nm and NIR LEDs with λ_p of 830 nm, 880 nm, and 955 nm. After NIR light passed through the narrow band pass filter, the full width of half maximum of 33.4~48.6 nm became narrow to 20~24 nm owing to the absorption of photons with short or long wavelength of designed band of 20 nm. The SiO₂/TiO₂ band pass filter fabricated in this study can be used for sensor, optoelectronics, and NIR spectroscopy applications.

Intravenous injection is the most frequent invasive treatment for inpatients and is widely used for parenteral nutrition administration and blood products, and more than 1 billion procedures are used for peripheral catheter insertion, blood collection, and other IV therapy per year. Intravenous injection is one of the difficult procedures to be performed only by trained nurses with intravenous injection training, and failure can lead to thrombosis and hematoma or nerve damage to the vein. Accordingly, studies on auxiliary equipment capable of visualizing the vein structure of the back of the hand or arm are being published to reduce errors during intravenous injection. This study is a study on the performance difference according to the number of LEDs irradiating the 850nm wavelength band on a vein detector that visualizes the vein during intravenous injection. Four LED PCBs were produced by attaching NIR filters to CCD and CMOS camera lenses irradiated on the skin to acquire images, sharpen the acquired images using image processing algorithms, and project the sharpened images onto the skin. After that, each PCB was attached to the front end of the vein detector to detect the vein image and create a performance comparison questionnaire based on the vein image obtained for performance evaluation. The survey was conducted on 20 nurses working at K Hospital.

Recently, the finger vein recognition based on NIR and CCD sensor camera is investigating the technology to identify a personal using by biometrics. The performance difference of finger vein recognition is generated according to methods that are to separate the vein and background from noises such as finger thickness, ambient light, skin temperature, etc. To improve these problems, in this study, we are proposing the methods for rotation, ROI extraction, and enhancement of vein image captured by NIR LED and CCD camera, and were evaluated performances of these methods. In results of the experiment, the accuracy of the proposed method for image rotation and ROI extraction was 99.8%. And the proposed filter bank method in vein enhancement has shown better performance than retinex algorithm. The proposed method for results of these experimentations will provide better recognition rate when applied to the preprocessing of finger vein recognition.

PCR-DGGE method was applied to analyze changes of microbial community in simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) bioreactor with various DO concentrations. In the analysis of eubacterial community, band profiles of DGGE were similar with 2 or 1 mg/L DO concentrations in the reactor. Experimental results led to 16 different bacteria being identified, including 5 dominant strains(3 strains of Uncultured Bacterium, 1 strains of Bacillus, 1 strains of Uncultured Bacteroidetes). DGGE results at 0.5 mg/L DO concentration led to 12 strains being identified, including 7 dominant strains(5 strains of Uncultured Bacterium, 2 strains of Zoogloea sp.). DGGE results at 0.1 mg/L DO concentration led to 11 strains being identified, including 3 dominant strains(1 strains of Uncultured Bacterium, 2 strains of Zoogloea sp.). In DGGE band profiles of $\beta$-AOB($\beta$-Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria), only one band was observed. This band had 97% similarity with Nitrosomonas sp. done DNB Y20. This band was clearly observed at the 2, 1 and 0.5 mg/L DO concentrations, while the brightness of the band at 0.1 mg/L DO concentration was mostly dimmed. In DGGE band profiles of denitrification process, 5 bands(3 strains of Uncultured organism containing nirS, 2 strains of Uncultured organism containing nirK) were observed. Among those bands, the brightness of one band was gradually increased at the lower DO concentrations. This band has 86% identity with Uncultured organism clone eS1 cd1 nirS gene, partial cds. Based on this result, it could be concluded that Uncultured organism clone eS1 cd1 nirS gene, partial cds is a predominant microorganism in the denitrification process.

In this study, blue light emiting, soluble PPV copolymers were synthesized by Witting reaction and characterized. ITO/copolymer/Ca and ITO/copolymer/A1 structured light emitting diodes(LED) were fabricated and their I-V characteristics were examined. Copolymers showed $\pi$-$\pi$ transition in UV-Vis./NIR spectra. The PL and abosorption spectrum showed the symmetric vibration modes with mirror images which means that copolymers are highly aligned. By introducing aliphatic hydrocarbon group on polymer main chain, the solubility of copolymers was improved and no significant effects of substituent were observed. The band offset of copolymers are well suited as light emitting material for LED application than monomer or oligomer does. THe band offset of copolymers is ∼3eV in PL spectrum and the threshold voltages of ITO/copolymer/Ca and ITO/copolymer/Al structured LED 3V, 12V respectively. In the case of ITO/copolymer/Ca LED, it is believed that the amount of electrons and holes is well balanced and the recombination of opposite charges occurs easily because the work functions of Ca and Al electrodes are 2.9 and 4.3eV respectively and the difference in barrier height between polymer and electrode was small.

The production of grain for export and domestic use is one of Australia's most important agricultural industries, and the NIR technique has been used extensively over many years for the routine monitoring of grain quality, particularly moisture and protein content. Because most Australian grain is intended for human food production, the determinants of grain quality for livestock feed, apart from protein, have been largely ignored. However the increasing use of grain for feeding to pigs, poultry, beef cattle and dairy cows has led to an important national research project entitled “Premium Grains for Livestock”. Two of the objectives of this project are to determine the compositional and functional characteristics of grains which influence their nutritional quality for the various classes of livestock, and to adopt rapid and objective analytical tests for these quality criteria. NIR has been used in this project firstly to identify a set of grain samples from a large population of breeders' lines which showed a wide spectral variation, and hence a potentially wide variation in nutritional value. The selected samples were not only subjected to an extensive array of chemical, physical and in vitro analyses, but also were grown out to produce sufficient quantities of grain to feed to animals in vivo studies. Additional grains were also strategically selected from farms in order to include the effect of weather damage, such as rain, drought and frost. In this study to date, NIR calibrations have been derived or attempted, on both ground and whole grains, for in vivo dry matter digestibility (DMD), pepsin-cellulase dry matter disappearance, protein, fat, acid detergent fibre, neutral detergent fibre, starch, in sacco DMD and in vitro assays to simulate starch digestion in the lumen and small intestine. Results so far indicate high calibration accuracy for chemical components (SECV 0.3 to 2.6%) and very promising statistics for in vivo DMD (SECV 1.8, $R^2$ 0.93, SD 7.0, range 61.9 to 92.3, n=60). There appears to be some potential for NIR to estimate some in vitro properties, depending upon the accuracy of reference methods and appropriate sample populations. Current work is in progress to extend the range of grains with in vivo DMD values (a very laborious and expensive process) and to increase the robustness of the various NIR calibrations, with the aim of implementing uniform testing procedures for nutritional value of grains throughout Australia.

UV LED에서 p-GaN층의 높은 일함수와 자체 면저항이 크기 때문에 current spreading layer인 ITO (indium tin oxide) 투명전극이 사용되고 있다. 따라서 높은 UV 파장대 투과율과 낮은 면 저항이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서, RF magnetron sputter를 사용하여 ITO 투명전극을 glass(boro33)에 120 nm 두께로 증착하였다. 그 후 RTA (rapid thermal annealing)을 이용해 120초 동안 $600^{\circ}C$에서 Air, $N_2$ (15 sccm), vacuum 환경에서 열처리를 하여 UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer를 사용해 ITO 박막의 투과율을 측정하고, Hall measurement system을 이용하여 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. Fig. 1과 같이 열처리 환경에 따라 ITO 박막의 투과율이 변하고 또한 Table 1과 같이 전기적 특성도 변함을 알 수 있었다. Air 환경에서의 열처리는 reference 샘플과 비교 했을 때 400 nm 이하의 파장에서 투과율이 증가하였지만 400 nm 이상의 파장에서는 투과율이 낮아짐을 볼 수 있고, 면 저항 (Ohm/sq)은 오히려 reference (as deposited) 샘플과 비교하여 24 Ohm/sq 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 반면에 $N_2$, vacuum 환경에서 열처리는 reference (as deposited) 샘플 보다 380 nm 파장대에서 16% 정도 높은 투과율을 보였고, 면저항 역시 2배 이상 낮아졌다. 둘 다 비슷한 투과율과 면저항을 나타내었지만 vacuum 환경이 좀 더 우수한 광학적 특성을 나타내었고 반면에 $N_2$ 환경은 좀 더 낮은 면저항을 나타내었다. ITO 박막을 증착한 후 vacuum 환경에서 열처리를 통하여 제작된 UV-LED (중심 파장 380 nm)가 Fig. 2와 같이 입력 전류 450 mA에서 광출력이 46% 정도 향상 되었고 안정된 I-V 특성 보였다.
