Purpose: Digital medical image commenced with an introduction of PACS has become more popular today in the radiation diagnosis and medical treatment and made great progress, in particular, for medical testing field, whereas it has made slow progress for radiation therapy area. In order to accommodate the current trend of digital from analog, a spherical type mechanical check device (SMCD) that is form of spherical differing from the existing form of flat or cube has been designed and tested its practicability to replace the part in mechanical check with digital image from QA operation. Materials and Methods: If the distance maintains constant between source(target) and image detector with constant distance to the center of spherical type mechanical check device(SMCD), the size will be shown as a constant image at all times regardless of its direction exposed. For the test, two accurate hemispheres are made and put together which results in a sphere of the equilateral circle. Results: It enables a variety of implementation of the existing mechanical check using digital image as follows: congruity level of radiation field and light field, size accuracy of radiation field and collimation field, gantry rotation isocenter check, collimation rotation isocenter check, room laser accuracy check, collimation rotation angle check, couch rotation angle check, and more. Conclusion: It has proved its practicability in checking isocenter congruity level as real time at the time of simultaneous rotation between gantry and couch that is applied to the non-coplanar field, which had been hard to apply as a device formed of existing flat or cube.

The fabrication of the barium titanate ceramic capcitors has been studied. The effects of the impurities for alumina and silica upon mechanical and electrical characteristics have been examined in detail. The preparation of equimolar titanium oxide and barium carbide in addition two percent of alumina and point two five perdcent of silica has shown the best results. This is fired up to thirteen hundred degrees Celsius with the rate of two hundred degrees Celsius per hour and soaked three hous at this temperature. The dielectric constant of this sample is approximately equal with the standard and theoretical values at room temperature. The insulation resitances of the most fabricated capacitors are in the order of twenty thousand megohms, the dielectric constant and the dissipation factor are almost flat up to just below of curie temperature, and the porosities of the most ceramics are less than point one percent and well close or equal to zero percent.

$C_{x}F_{y}$ polymer film was deposited in rf and dc Fluorinert vapor ($C_{7}F_{16}$) plasmas. In the plasma phase, the spatial distribution of optical emission spectra and the temporal concentration of decomposed species were monitored, and kinetics of the $C_{7}F_{16}$ decomposition process was discussed. Deposition of $C_{x}F_{y}$ film has been tried on substrates of stainless steel, glass, molybdenum and silicon wafers at room temperature in the vapor pressures of 40 and 100 Pa. The films deposited in the rf plasma showed excellent electrical properties as an insulator for multi-layered interconnection of deep-submicron LSI, i.e. the low dielectric constant ∼2.0, the dielectric strength ∼2 MV/cm and the high deposition rate ∼100nm/min at 100W input power.

In this paper, the dielectric relaxation and reliability of high capacitance density metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors using $Al_2O_3-HfO_2-Al_2O_3$ and $SiO_2-HfO_2-SiO_2$ sandwiched structure under constant voltage stress (CVS) are characterized. These results indicate that although the multilayer MIM capacitor provides high capacitance density and low dissipation factor at room temperature, it induces greater dielectric relaxation level (in ppm). It is also shown that dielectric relaxation increases and leakage current decreases as functions of stress time under CVS, because of the charge trapping effect in the high-k dielectric.

Sintering, microstructure, thermal conductivity and microwave dielectric properties of xLiF-(1-x)MgO ceramics (x=0.03~0.10 mol) were investigated. The high density was obtained in the specimens of $x{\geq}0.06$, i.e., 0.04 LiF-0.96 MgO in mol, whereas the amount of 0.03 mol LiF was insufficient to densify. From the result that the contact flattening in the sintered specimen was observed, the densification occurred through the liquid-phase sintering. The specimen of x=0.06 showed the highest room-temperature thermal conductivity. Relative density, thermal conductivity, dielectric constant, and quality factor ($Q{\times}f$) of the specimen for x=0.06 sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 4 h were 97.8%, $39.2Wm^{-1}K^{-1}$, 9.45, and 14,671 GHz, respectively.

(Ba$_{0.6-x}$Sr$_{0.4}$Ca$_{x}$)TiO$_3$(x=1.10,0.15,0.20) specimens were fabricated by the solid state reaction method and then the structural and dielectric properties as a function of he composition ratio and sintering temperature were studied. As a result of the differential thermal analysis(DTA), exothermic peak was observed at around 102$0^{\circ}C$ due to the formation of the polycrystalline perovskite phase. The BSCT(50/40/10) specimen sintered at 150$0^{\circ}C$ showed the highest average grain size(18.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). The Curie temperature and dielectric constant at room temperature decreased with increasing Ca content. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the BSCT(50/40/10) specimen, sintered at 145$0^{\circ}C$, were about 4324 and 0.972% at 1KHz, respectively.ively.

Adsorption and desorption characteristics of the representative 10 kinds components consisting of gasoline vapor on activated carbon were investigated at the temperature range of $-30^{\circ}C{\sim}25^{\circ}C$. The breakthrough curves of each vapors obtained by the Thomas model were well described the breakthrough experimental results of this study. The breakthrough times of each vapors were correlated with the molecular weight, density, and vapor pressure. The breakthrough times had greater correlation with boiling point than molecular weight and density. The slope of the breakthrough curve was a proportional relationship with the rate constant (k) of Thomas model expression. The higher the slope of the breakthrough curve, the rate constant was larger. The biggest slope vapor had the smallest adsorption capacity ($q_e$). Adsorption and desorption characteristics of mixed vapor similar to the gasoline vapor were studied at room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$). The mixed vapor consisting of 9 components; group A (pentane, hexene, hexane), group B (benzene, toluene), group C (octane, ethylbenzene, xylene, nonane) was examined. Group A was not nearly adsorbed because of substitution by group C, and the desorption capacity of group A was smaller than group C. The adsorbed substances were confirmed to be Group C.

The electrorheological (ER) behavior of suspensions in silicone oil of phosphoric ester cellulose powder (average particle size: 17.77 $\mu$m) was investigated at room temperature with electric fields up to 2.5 KV/mm. For development of anhydrous ER suspensions using at wide temperature range, we aimed to know the effect of activation of phosphoric ester cellulose particles on the ER activities. As a first step, the anhydrous ER suspensions mixing with the phosphoric ester cellulose particles which were treated with 2M phosporic acid and 4M urea were measured. After activating the anhydrous ER suspensions at 12$0^{\circ}C$, not only the analysis of dispersing cellulose particles which were reacted by phosphoric ester but also the electrorheological characteristics of ER suspensions such as dielectric constant, current density, electrical conductivity and rheological properties were studied. From the experimental results, the activation of phosphoric ester cellulose particles had an influence on the ER properties of anhydrous ER suspensions. As the activation time went by, the size and number of dispersing particles, the electrical properties and the initial apparent viscosity $(η_0)$ of ER suspensions were increased till the activation time passed 5 hours. Also, it was possible, the electrorheological effect $($\tau$/$\tau$_0)$ of ER fluids was grown by the activation of phosphoric ester cellulose particles.

In this study, ultra-thin films of (N-docosyl quinolinium)-TCNQ(1:2) complex were prepared on the hydrophilic substrate by Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) technique. The characteristics of ${\pi}-A$ isotherms were studied to find optimum conditions of deposition by varying temperature of subphase, compression speed of barrier and amount of spreading solution. Using UV-vis spectra, capacitance and thickness, deposition of LB films was confirmed together with the thickness of the naturally oxidized aluminum film inside a device and dielectric constant of (N-docosyl quinolinium)-TCNQ(1:2) complex. The dielectric constant of LB film was about $4.59{\sim}5.58$. The electrical properties of (N-docosyl quinolinium)-TCNQ(1:2) complex were investigated at room temperature. The conductivity of this film measured by the direction of either vertical or horizontal axis was found to have a quite different value.

A regulating mechanism of the ATP-sensitive potassium channels $(K_{ATP}\;channels)$ is yet to fully explained. This study was carried out to investigate the effects of intracellular application of monocarboxylates (acetate, formate, lactate, and pyruvate) on $K_{ATP}$ channels in isolated rabbit ventricular myocytes. Single channel currents of $K_{ATP}$ channels were recorded using the excised inside-out or permeabilized attached (open-cell) patch-clamp technique at room temperature. Intracellular application of acetate, formate and pyruvate led to an inhibition of channel activity, whereas intracellular application of lactate increased channel activity. These effects were reversible upon washout. Analysis of single channel kinetics showed that monocarboxylates did not affect open-time constant and close-time constant. These results suggest that monocarboxylates participate in modulating $K_{ATP}$ channels activity in cardiac cells and that modulation of $K_{ATP}$ channels activity may resolve the discrepancy between the low $K_i$ in excised membrane patches and high levels of intracellular ATP concentration during myocardial ischemia or hypoxia.
