We have developed an alternative to the internal chemical reference based on a calibrated reference signal which is not a real NMR line but an electronically produced signal (HERETIC) and determined the phosphorus concentration using this method. The area ratio of HERETIC and sample peaks obtained from the standard samples was used to measure the concentrations of different samples directly. The analysis of phosphorus by this method showed the excellent linear regression coefficient ($R^2=0.9999$) for the concentration range from 20 ppm to 500 ppm with HERETIC peak as reference.

Variety of volatile materials is present in crude-Zinc oxide recovered from EAFD(Electric arc furnace steel dust). Commonly, it is purified by oxidizing roasting. In this study, spherical each specimen prepared crude-zinc oxide like 1~3 mm and 10 mm was tested in vertical tube furnace at the temperature range $600^{\circ}C$ to $1200^{\circ}C$ in oxidizing atmosphere. Oxidizing roasting properties of zinc oxide were investigated using XRD, XRF and ICP-OES. At temperature blow $950^{\circ}C$ volatilization rate were remarkably low. As the temperature increases, the concentration of Zn increased and the concentration and XRD peaks of impurities decreased. The result indicated that volatilization rate depended on specimen size and roasting temperature.

The relationship between ratio of virus diseases and the population of aphid vectors was studied by planting radishes(Rophanus sativus L. var. Chungsu gungjung) every 10 days and collecting aphids from April to November at Jeonju, Korea in 1982. Alate aphids were collected with yellow pan traps and virus infection ratios were checked with symptoms. The populations of flying aphids showed two peaks, one in the late May and one in the middle October in Jeonju and the population of aphid vectors also showed the same inclination. Of aphid vectors, Myzus persicae, Lipaphis erysimi, Brevicoryne brassicae, and Aphisgossypii were trapped and their percentages to total trapped aphids were $62.82\%(39,260/62,499)$ M. persicae was the most prevalent species and its percentages to aphid vectors were $82.53\%(32,401/39,260)$. High and sudden increase in virus infection ratio was found in spring while the trend in autumn was slow and low. A correlation coefficient between the population of virus vector aphid and virus infection ratio was $r=0.7414^*(\hat{Y}=8.1444+0.0551X)$ in spring and $r=0.9117^{**}(\hat{Y}=10.2590+0.463X)$ in autumn. The symptoms of radish virus diseases appeared approximately 15 days after virus vector aphids had attacked. Virus infection ratios were higher on plots where virus infected plants were reserved than on plots where they were removed.

The blueberry gall midge, Dasineura oxycoccana (Johnson) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), is an emerging pest on cultivated blueberries in Korea. To develop a sensitive tool for monitoring this pest in blueberry orchards, we compared the attractiveness of host plant volatiles and sex pheromone to D. oxycoccana adults. We performed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of solid-phase microextraction (SPME)-collected volatiles that were released from blueberry ('Darrow' cultivar). The analysis revealed two major volatiles, cinnamaldehyde and cinnamyl alcohol from flowers; and three major volatiles, β-caryophyllene, germacrene D, and α-farnesene from shoots and young fruits. In field tests conducted in Gunsan, Korea in 2019, commercialized cinnamaldehyde, cinnamyl alcohol, β-caryophyllene, and α-farnesene, used singly or in quaternary combination, were unattractive to the blueberry gall midge. However, traps baited with the known sex pheromone (2R,14R)-2,14-diacetoxyheptadecane attracted significantly more males than the treatments with plant volatiles or the control. No synergistic effect was observed between sex pheromone and plant volatiles. Male D. oxycoccana were captured in the pheromone traps from May to August, with three peaks in mid-May, late June, and late July in Gunsan blueberry fields in 2020.

Transparent ZnO (100 nm thick) and ZnO/Ti/ZnO (ZTZ) films were prepared with radio frequency (RF) and direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering on the glass substrate at room temperature. During the ZTZ film deposition, the thickness of the Ti interlayer was varied, such as 6, 9, 12, and 15 nm, while the thickness of ZnO films was kept at 50 nm to investigate the effect of the Ti interlayer on the crystallization and opto-electrical performance of the films. From the XRD pattern, it is concluded that the 9 nm thick Ti interlayer showed some characteristic peaks of Ti (200) and (220), and the grain size of the ZnO (002) enlarged from 13.32 to 15.28 nm as Ti interlayer thickness increased. In an opto-electrical performance observation, ZnO single-layer films show a figure of merit of 1.4×10^-11 Ω^-1, while ZTZ films with a 9 nm-thick Ti interlayer show a higher figure of merit of 2.0×10^-5 Ω^-1.

Occurrence and yield characteristics of lepidopteran insect pests in both PUR (paddy-upland rotation) and CU (continuing upland) fields for 8 maize (Eolrukchal 1, Heugjeom 2, Miheukchal, Ilmichal, Heukjinjuchal, Chalok 4, Mibaek 2, Daehakchal) and 7 sorghum (Hwanggeumchal, Anzunbaengisusu, Moktaksusu, Sodamchal, DS-202, Nampungchal, Donganme) varieties was surveyed. The population of Ostrinia furnacalis adults showed 3 times highest peaks in 2016. In addition, the damaged ratios of maize and sorghum leaves and stems were increased depending on the growth periods of the crops and those by O. furnacalis larvae were also increased steeply in mid August. The damaged ratios of maizes such as Miheukchal, Eolrukchal 1, Ilmichal, Heugjeom 2, and Mibaek 2 by O. furnacalis larvae were statistically different (P=0.05) between organically managed PUR and CU fields. Except for DS202 among sorghum varieties, the damaged ratios of the other ones were high and similar (50-92%) in the CU field. The ear damaged ratio of maize varieties by lepidopteran larvae including O. furnacalis and Helicoverpa armigera was from 5 to 38% in Chalok 4 and Heukjinjuchal, respectively, and Daehakchal gave relatively higher damage ratio in the PUR field (33%) than in the CU field (14%). The ear ratio of Sodamchal and DS-202 varieties in the PUR field was 94 and 82%, and all sorghum varieties were damaged over 78% by lepidopteran larvae in the CU field. Interestingly, the correlation coefficients between the damaged ratio and invasive pores on their stems by O. furnacalis larvae were positive (maize $r=0.69_{paddy-upland}$, $0.95_{continuing}$; sorghum $r=0.93_{paddy-upland}$, $0.97_{continuing}$, respectively). Additionally, the correlation coefficients between the damaged ratio and the ear weight or the thousand kernel weight (g) of maizes and sorghums by lepidopteran larvae were negative (maize $r=-0.38_{paddy-upland}$, $-0.49_{continuing}$; sorghum $r=-0.70_{paddy-upland}$, $-0.57_{continuing}$, respectively). These results indicate that the focused management on lepidopteran insect pests occurring maizes and sorghums cultivated in PUR and CU fields is an important strategy to secure their yields.

Four ice nucleation-active bacteria (INA-bacteria), Pseudomonas syringae, Xanthomonas campestris, Escherichia coli JM109/pEIN229 and Gluconobacter oxydans/pKIN230, were treated with heat, pressure and gamma-irradiation to compare viability and their ice nucleation activity (INA) after sterilization. Gamma-irradiated INA-bacteria showed the least decrease in T90 value (the temperature at which the 90% of drops are frozen). According to cumulative INA spectra, gamma-irradiated INA-bacteria showed little decrease in class A ice nuclei $(nucleate\;H_{2}O\;at\;higher\;than\;-5^{\circ}C)$, pressurized INA-bacteria showed more than 90% decrease in class A ice nuclei, and heat-treated INA-bacteria barely showed class A ice nuclei. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to examine the effect of INA-bacteria on the thermophysical properties of water at freezing temperature. Freezing peaks were appeared at about $11{\sim}15^{\circ}C$ higher on thermograms and enthalpies of phase change were decreased for the water containing INA-bacteria compared with the pure water, while melting peaks were not shifted. INA measured by DSC method were significantly correlated with INA measured by drop freezing method $(R^{2}>0.993,\;p<0.0001)$, indicating that DSC can be used as a new, simple and precise method for measuring INA.

This study was performed to measure expandabilities and coherent scattering domain sizes (CSDs) of bentonite samples from Campo and Yonil area, Korea, using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and to compare their experimental data with those of international standard bentonite samples (SAz-1, STx-1, and SWy-2). Most of Gampo and Yonil bentonite samples comprised randomly interstratified illite-smectite (R0 I-S), and their expandabilities ranged over 77-100%S$_{XRD}$ from the saddle/001 method. The interstratification deformed 001 peaks of EG-solvated samples (Mering's first principle), which prohibited us from adopting these peaks to measure CSDs using BWA (Bertaut-Warren-Averbach) method. CSDs of the bentonite samples with R0 I-S could be measured through dehydration at 30$0^{\circ}C$ after K-saturation, where the deformation originated from the interstratification could be removed effectively. Campo and Yonil bentonite samples showed that their mean CSDs ranged over 3.8-5.4 interlayers, and that their CSDs distributions were similar to those of Gonzales (STx-1) and Wyoming (SWy-2) bentonite samples.

The clustering technique using RF fingerprint extracts the characteristic signature of the transmitters which are embedded in the transmission waveforms. The output of the RF-Fingerprint feature extraction algorithm for clustering identical DMR(Digital Mobile Radios) is a high-dimensional feature, typically consisting of 512 or more dimensions. While such high-dimensional features may be effective for the classifiers, they are not suitable to be used as inputs for the clustering algorithms. Therefore, this paper proposes a dimension reduction algorithm that effectively reduces the dimensionality of the multidimensional RF-Fingerprint features while maintaining the fingerprinting characteristics of the DMRs. Additionally, it proposes a clustering algorithm that can effectively cluster the reduced dimensions. The proposed clustering algorithm reduces the multi-dimensional RF-Fingerprint features using t-SNE, based on KL Divergence, and performs clustering using Density Peaks Clustering (DPC). The performance analysis of the DMR clustering algorithm uses a dataset of 3000 samples collected from 10 Motorola XiR and 10 Wintech N-Series DMRs. The results of the RF-Fingerprinting-based clustering algorithm showed the formation of 20 clusters, and all performance metrics including Homogeneity, Completeness, and V-measure, demonstrated a performance of 99.4%.

In this work, the $Ta_2O_5$ thin films were deposited on Pt/n-Si substrate by reactive magnetron sputtering and the RTA treatment at temperatures range from 650 to $750^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ and vacuum. X-ray diffraction analysis, FE SEM, dielectric properties and leakage current density have been used to study the structural and electrical properties of the $Ta_2O_5$ thin films. XRD result showed that as- deposited films were amorphous and the annealed films crystallized (<$700^{\circ}C$) into ${\beta}-Ta_2O_5$. The crystallinity increased with temperature in terms of an increase in the intensity of the diffracted peaks(${\beta}-Ta_2O_5$) and annealing in oxygen reduced defect dang1ing Ta-O bonds. As deposited $Ta_2O_5$ films show the leakage current density $10^{-7}$ to $10^{-8}$ (A/$cm^2)$ at low electric fields (<200 kV/cm) However, it was found leakage current density of $Ta_2O_5$ thin films decreased with $O_2$ ambient annealing. The dielectric constant of the as deposited $Ta_2O_5$ thin films was ${\varepsilon}_r$ $9{\sim}11$ but the dielectric constant was increased after RTA treatment in $O_2$ ambient more then in vacuum.
