Background and Objectives: The aim of the study was to compare effects of tone-burst (TB) and narrow-band (NB) Claus Elberling (CE)-chirp stimuli on amplitude, latency and interaural asymmetry ratio (IAR) of cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) in healthy individuals. Subjects and Methods: The study included 50 healthy volunteers. cVEMP procedure was carried out using 500 Hz TB and NB-CE-chirp stimulus (360-720 Hz, up-chirp) in random order. cVEMP were recorded at 100 dB nHL. For each ear and each stimulus, P1 latency, N1 latency and P1N1 amplitude were measured. IAR was also calculated. Results: Mean age was 26.66±9.48 years. cVEMP's in response to both TB and NB CE-chirp stimuli were obtained in all subjects. No statistically significant difference in P1 latency, N1 latency, and P1N1 amplitude was found between the right and left ears for both TB and NB CE-chirp stimuli (p>0.05). In both sides, P1 and N1 latencies were significantly shorter in NB CE-chirp stimulation compared to TB stimulation (p=0.000). In both sides, no statistically significant difference was found in P1N1 amplitude between two types of stimuli (p>0.05). Conclusions: The chirp stimulus produces robust but earlier cVEMP than TB does. This largest series study on NB chirp cVEMP shows that NB chirp is a good and new reliable alternative.

인상속도를 변수로 Czochralski법을 이용하여 $ LiNbO_3$결정들을 성장시켰다. 성장된 단결정에 균열, 기포, 셀 구조 등의 결함들이 관찰되었다. 균열들은 인상속도와 냉각속도에 매우 민감하였는데 6~7mm/h의 인상속도와 20^{circ}C/h의 냉각속도가 직경 15mm정도의 결정성장에 적당한 조건임을 알 수 있었다. 소자응용에 필요한 유전적 성질 및 광학적 성질 등을 알아보기 위하여 a축, c축방향에 따라 절삭된 시편을 온도를 변화시켜가며 측정하였다.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of hydrogen embrittlement od Zr-2.5Nb CANDU pressure tube. The test were performed at three hydrogen contents for transverse tensile and CCT specimens while the test temperatures were changed (RT to 300$^{\circ}C$). The specimens were directly machined from the tube retaining original curvature using electric discharge machine. Both the transverse tensile and the fracture toughness tests showed the hydrogen embrittlement clearly at RT but this phenomenon was disappeared while the test temperature arrived over 250$^{\circ}C$. From the fracture toughness test, it was found that fracture toughness dJ/da was increased up to 200$^{\circ}C$ and then decreased.

The $ZnNb_2O_6$ ceramics with 3wt% CuO were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The ceramics were sintered at the temperature of $1000^{\circ}C{\sim}1075^{\circ}C$ for 3hr. in air. The structural properties were investigated with sintering temperature by XRD and SEM. Also, the microwave dielectric properties were investigated with sintering temperature. Increasing the sintering temperature, the peak of second phase($Cu_3Nb_2O_8$) was increased. In the case of $ZnNb_2O_6$+CuO(3wt%) ceramics sintered at $1025^{\circ}C$ for 3hr, the dielectric constant, quality factor were 21.73, 19.276, respectively.

The $BaTiO_{3}+xNb_{2}O_{5}$[x=6, 8, 10wt%] ceramics were prepared by conventional mixed oxide method. The structural properties of the $BaTiO_{3}+xNb_{2}O_{5}$ ceramics with the sintering temperature and addition of $Nb_{2}O_{5}$ were investigated by XRD and SEM. Increasing the sintering temperature, the $2{\Theta}$ value of BT (110) peak was shifted to the lower degree and intensity of the BN (310) peak was increased. Increasing the addition of $Nb_{2}O_{5}$, the intensity of BN (100) peak was decreased and BN (310), (110) peaks were increased. The grain size of the $BaTiO_{3}+xNb_{2}O_{5}$ ceramics sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$ were almost uniform. In the $BaTiO_{3}+xNb_{2}O_{5}$ ceramics sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$, the dielectric constant and dielectric loss were 5424, 0.02 respectively.

합금원소(Cr, V, Si. Mo, Nb)가 첨가된 TiAi 금속간화합물의 고온 산화거동을 대기중의 900~$1100^{\circ}C$에서 관찰하였다. 산화반응물은 XRD, SEM, WDX을 이용하여 분석하였다. 등온 산화에 있어서 Cr과 V이 각각 첨가된 시편은 무게증가가 많았으나, Si, Mo, Vb가 각각 첨가된 시편은 상대적으로 무게증가각 적었아. 그리고, Cr과 V이 각각 첨가된 시편의 산화속도는 TiAi의 그것보다 항상 크게 나타났으며, Si, Mo, Vb가 각각 첨가된 시편의 산화속도는 TiAi의 그것보다 향상되지 않고, Si, Mo또는 Nb 첨가는 내산화성을 향상시킨다. Si, Mo, Nb이 각각 첨가된 TiAI합금표면에 형성된 산화물은 보호막 역할을 함으로 산소와 합금원소의 확산을 감소시키는 역할을 하였다. 특히, Nb는 산화의 초기단계에서는 $AI_{2}O_{3}$를 형성하려는 경향이 강하기 때문에 연속적인 $AI_{2}O_{3}$층과 조밀한 $Tio_{2}+AI_{2}O_{3}$ 혼합층이 형성되었다. Nb가 첨가된 합금의 백금 marker 실험결과에 따르면, 산소가 주로 합금내부로 확산하여 합금표면에서 산화물을 형성하였다. $900^{\circ}C$에서의 열반복주기(thermal cyclic)산화실험 결과, 다른 합금원소와 비교해 볼 때 Cr또는 Nb첨가가 금속기지와 산화층간의 접착력을 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다.

고주파로의 이용한 Czocharalski 법으로 congruent$(R_{m}=R_{c}=0.945)$, stoichiometric$(R_{m}=1,\;R_{c}=0.957)$, Li-rich$(R_{m}=1.202,\;R_{c}=0.989)$, congruent한 조성에 $K_{2}O$를 6 wt% 첨가한 $LiNbO_{3}$ 등의 순수한 단결정들과 congruent한 조성에 Mg와 Mn을 불순물로 첨가한 $LiNbO_{3}:Mn(0.1\;mole%),\;LiNbO_{3}:Mg(4.5,\;6.0,\;10.0\;mole%),\;LiNbO_{3}:(Mg(4.5,\;6.0,\;10.0\;mole%)+Mn(0.1\;mole%))$ 단결정들을 결정의 c.축 방향으로 성장시켰다. 실온데서 UV 스펙트럼과 IR 스펙트럼을 측정한 결과 UV 흡수단과 $OH^{-}$ 흡수 스펙트럼은 [Li]/[Nb] 비에 따라 변화한다. 또 첨가한 Mg, Mn 불순물들의 영향을 받는데 UV 흡수단의 위치와 $OH^{-}$ 흡수 스펙트럼의 위치, 모양이 Mg의 첨가량에 크게 의존하며 이는 Mg의 첨가량에 따라 이 이온의 결정내 위치가 달라지기 때문이다. 순수한 단별정들에 대한 $OH^{-}$ 흡수 스펙트럼을 Gaussian 선모습 함수를 써서 3, 5 개의 성분 스펙트럼으로 분해한다. 이 결과를 설명하기 위한 $LiNbO_{3}$ 단결정내의 배내, 배외 결함 구조에 대한 논의로 부터 Li 빈자리 모델이 결함 구조를 설명하는데 적합하다는 결론을 내렸고 이들 불순물 이온의 결정내의 위치도 정한다. 또한 결함 구조에 대한 본 연구의 결론을 이용하여 최근의 다른 연구자들의 실험 결과도 설명한다.

Nb$_2$O$_{5}$가 첨가된 $UO_2$ 소결체의 미세조직을 수소와 이산화탄소 분위기에서 연구하였다. Pellet을 1$700^{\circ}C$ 수소분위기 그리고 130$0^{\circ}C$ 이산화탄소 분위기에서 1-41 시간 동안 소결하였다. Nb$_2$O$_{5}$를 첨가하면 큰 기공들이 형성되고, 이 기공들은 수소분위기에서는 어느정도 수축하지만 이산화탄소 분위기에서는 거의 소멸하지 않는다. 작은 기공들은 수소분위기에서는 거의 전부 소멸되며 이산화탄소 분위기에서는 거의 소멸하지 않는다. 그리고 결정립의 크기도 수소분위기에서 훨씬 증대한다. 따라서 Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ 첨가에 의한 우라늄 확산은 수소분위기에서 훨씬 증가하는 것으로 생각된다. 수소 분위기에서 소결한 Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ 첨가 $UO_2$ pellet의 미세조직을 노내성능의 관점에서 평가하였다. 우라늄 확산의 증가를 설명하기 위해서 Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ 첨가에 의해서 형성 가능한 결함들을 고찰하였다.함들을 고찰하였다.
