The SRI(Super Resolution Imager) with 800mm aperture primary mirror is the ground development model of the high resolution satellite camera. The SRI focal plane electronics including detector array generates the data for high-resolution images by converting incoming light into digital stream of pixel data. Since the focal plane including a detector is the basic building block of the camera system, the main system performances is directly determined by its performance. This paper measures the SRI focal plane electronics’ performance such as the dark signal, the dark signal noise, the linearity, the PRNU(Photo Response Non-Uniformity), the SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) and the sensor saturation capability. In addition, this paper verifies the various functionalities of the SRI focal plane electronics. The electrical test equipment with the specialized software and the optical test equipments such as the integrating sphere, the rotation stage and the target are implemented and used to verify these functionalities and performances.

The decomposition of 50 pesticides present in an aqueous solution using ${\gamma}-irradiation$ from a $^{60}Co$ gamma-ray source was investigated using laboratory-scale experiment. The rates of decomposition were determined using a gas chromatography-electron capture detector (GC-ECD), high-performance liquid chromatography-photo diode array detector (HPLC-PDA), and HPLC-fluorescence detector (FLD). When the initial concentration of pesticides was 10 ppm, and the radiation dose was 2, 5, 10, 20, and 30 kGy, respectively, 14 pesticide samples showed high removal rates (>50%) at absorbed doses of more than 10 kGy. With the exception of procymidone, they were all completely removed at a 30 kGy irradiation dose. These results provide fundamental data on the reactivity between gamma-irradiation and pesticides in an aqueous solution. Further, an evaluation of the toxicity of radiolytic intermediate products is required.

We design a multi-element photo-detector to measure the size of particles using the diffracted light energy distribution. The scattered profile measured by the photodetector is sampled by a 32 channel analog-to-digital converter. A nonnegative least squares analysis translates the light energy distribution into the corresponding unique particle size distribution. The responses of the particle sizing system are studied theoretically and experimentally.

기존의 반도체 공정을 기반으로 하는 소자구조는 주로 평면의 웨이퍼상에 만들어져왔다. 그러나, 제작된 소자 어레이를 늘림이 가능한 (stretchable) 폴리머 기판에 프린팅 전이하는 방식을 이용하면 어떤 형태의 곡면에도 소자 제작이 가능해진다. 이러한 프린팅 방식으로, 다양한 곡면에 실리콘 소자 어레이를 제작한 연구결과를 발표하고자 한다. 한 응용 예로 사람의 눈과 같은 반구형 표면에 실리콘 나노 리본으로 만든 광다이오드 어레이를 배열하여 전자 눈 카메라를 제작하여 성능을 확인하였다. 또한 수차를 최소화할 수 있는 포물면에 전자눈 카메라를 제작하여 평면카메라에 비해 이미지의 균일성이 우수함을 보여주고자 한다.

High-energy linear accelerators are increasingly used in the medical field. However, the unwanted photo-neutrons can also be contributed to the dose delivered to the patients during their treatments. In this study, neutron fluxes were measured in a solid water phantom placed at the isocenter 1-m distance from the head of an18-MV linac using the foil activation method. The produced activities were measured with a calibrated well-type Ge detector. From the measured fluxes, the total neutron fluence was found to be $(1.17{\pm}0.06){\times}10^7n/cm^2$ per Gy at the phantom surface in a $20{\times}20cm^2$ X-ray field size. The maximum photo-neutron dose was measured to be $0.67{\pm}0.04$ mSv/Gy at $d_{max}=5cm$ depth in the phantom at isocenter. The present results are compared with those obtained for different field sizes of $10{\times}10cm^2$, $15{\times}15cm^2$, and $20{\times}20cm^2$ from 10-, 15-, and 18-MV linacs. Additionally, ambient neutron dose equivalents were determined at different locations in the room and they were found to be negligibly low. The results indicate that the photo-neutron dose at the patient position is not a negligible fraction of the therapeutic photon dose. Thus, there is a need for reduction of the contaminated neutron dose by taking some additional measures, for instance, neutron absorbing-protective materials might be used as aprons during the treatment.

This paper evaluates the performance of an optic link in a frequency conversion based fiber-radio system. The proposed link structure simplifies a BS(base station) via making the MMW(millimeter wave) optical pilot tone generated in the CS(control station) be used in the uplink as well as in the downlink. To acquire the optical pilot tone, an EOM(electro-optic modulator) in the CS is biased in three different ways, i.e., MAB(maximum bias), MIB(minimum bias), QB(quadrature bias). We, depending on the biasing of the EOM, evaluate the link performances in two cases; one is for constant laser source power and the other for constant received DC optical power at a PD(photo detector). Based on the simulation results on the downlink CNR and the uplink SFDR(spurious free dynamic range), we finally deduce the effective EOM biasing for each case.

Background: Gamma-ray spectrometry helps in radiation shielding problems and different applications of radioisotopes. Experimental arrangements including broad beam geometries are widely used. The aim is to investigate and evaluate the ${\gamma}-ray$ spectra via attenuation by environmental materials. Materials and Methods: The photo peak to nominated parts in the ${\gamma}-ray$ spectra and the attenuation coefficients ${\mu}_b/{\rho}$ from broad beam geometries are measured for the materials water, soil, sand and cement at the energies 0.662, 1.25, and 1.332 MeV with a $3{^{\prime}^{\prime}}{\times}3{^{\prime}^{\prime}}$ NaI(Tl) detector. Results and Discussion: The ${\gamma}-ray$ spectra vary according to changes in the effective atomic number $Z_{eff}$ of the attenuator, the photon energy and the solid angle. The peak to total ratios are the most sensitive parts to variations in the experimental conditions and overturn in the region 0.663 MeV to 1.332 MeV. This is indicated as inversion trend. The results are discussed in view of $Z_{eff}$ and the experimental conditions. The intensity build-up is larger at the lower energy and larger scattering angles in agreement with Klein-Nishina formula and other results. The build-up factor B is$${\sim_=}$$1 at high ${\gamma}-energies$ and small scattering angles. Conclusion: The sensitivity to material characteristics decrease gradually from peak: to total, to Compton valley, to Compton plateau ratios. Rigorous collimation is necessary at small energies. Cement, of the largest $Z_{eff}$, is characterized by the maximum broad beam mass attenuation coefficients ${\mu}_b/{\rho}$. The obtained results provide information to decide for the suitable experimental set-up based on aim of the work.

본 연구는 국내에서 최초로 제안되고 적용가능성이 입증되어 설계, 제작된 Probe-type Pockets sensor(HY-Pockets Sensor)를 GIS등의 고전압 장비들에 응용한 레이저 부분방전 진단 시스템 개발을 목표로 하고 있다. 이러한 목적으로, 170kV 급 실 규모 GIS내부의 전류 도체에 다양한 곡률 반경의 침 전극을 부착시켜 부분 방전에 기인된 불평등 전계를 형성시켜 개발된 센서의 실규모 적용 가능성을 고찰하였다. 본 레이저 계측 시스템은 He-Ne laser, single multi-mode optical fiber, $2{\times}2$ 50/50 laser to single mode fiber coupler, probe-type Pockets sensor, photo detector 등으로 구성하여 레이저의 진행을 유도하고, 신호의 특성을 분석하였다. probe-type Pockets sensor로부터 의 출력 신호는 photo detector를 통해 전기적 신호로 변환되어 digital oscilloscope에 의해 측정되고, 또한 PC를 통해 데이터의 저장과 통계적, 분석적 처리 과정을 수행하게 된다. 본 연구의 결과로서 부분방전원에서 생성된 방전 신호에 대한 거리에 따른 센서 감도 결정, 그에 대한 센서 감도의 보정 향상, 전계의 세기의 변화에 따른 센서의 선형성 등이 도출되었고, 이러한 실험결과를 통해 실 GIS(170kv급) 내부에서 발생하는 부분방전의 검출에 본 레이저 부분방전 진단 시스템의 적용 가능성이 제시 되었다.
