  • 한국 전체 에너지 사용량 중약 24%의 에너지가 건축물 부분에 소비되고 있다. 건축물의 벽체나 유리창 등을 통해서 에너지 손실이 이루어지는데 유리창은 벽체에 비해 약 10배 이상 낮은 단열 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 유리창을 통한 열손실량은 더 크다. 이러한 유리창 부분의 열손실 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방안으로 좋은 단열 특성 및 낮은 방사율을 가지고 있는 Low-e coating 방법을 사용하였다. 본 실험에서는 XG glass 기판 위에 IGZO/Ag/IGZO OMO 구조의 다층 박막을 증착하였다. RF magnetron sputtering방법을 이용하여 OMO 구조의 상부와 하부의 Oxide layer로 IGZO 박막을 증착하였다. 사용된 IGZO 타겟은 $In_2O_3$ (99.99%), $Ga_2O_3$ (99.99%), ZnO (99.99%)의 분말을 각각 1:1:1 mol% 조성비로 혼합하여 소결하여 제작하였다. Thermal Evaporator 장비를 이용하여 OMO 구조의 Metal layer로 Ag (99.999%)를 증착하였다. 실험 기판은 크기 $30{\times}30mm$의 0.7T XG glass를 사용하였다. OMO 구조의 산화층 IGZO 박막은 상/하층 동일 조건으로 기판 온도는 실온으로 고정하였으며, 초기 압력 $3.0{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr, 증착 압력 $3.0{\times}10^{-2}$ Torr, RF 파워 50W, Ar 유량 50 sccm로 고정시키고 증착 시간이 변화하면서 박막을 증착하였다. OMO 구조의 Metal layer로 Ag 증착 조건은 초기 진공도가 약 $6.0{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr 이하로 유지하고 기판을 2 Rpm의 속도로 회전시켰다. 이후 0.3 V로 Ag를 10분간 가열하여 충분히 녹인 후 Film Thickness Monitor로 두께를 확인하였다. OMO 다층 박막의 산화물층 변화에 따라 로이다층 박막의 구조적, 광학적 및 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. XRD 분석결과에 의하여 Bragg's 법칙을 만족하는 피크가 나타나지 않는 비정질 구조임을 확인할 수 있으며, AFM 분석결과에 통해서 최소 1.3 nm의 Roughness를 나타내었다. UV-Visible-NIR 분광광도계를 이용하여 다층 박막은 가시광선 영역에서 평균 80%의 광 투과성을 보여 IR 영역에서 평균 30% 투과하고 좋은 차단 특성을 나왔다. Low-e 특성을 갖는 유리창을 통해서 에너지 절약을 이룰 수 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Molybdenum-99 ($^{99}Mo$) is the most important isotope because its daughter isotope, technetium-99m ($^{99m}Tc$), has been the most widely used medical radioisotope for more than 50 years, accounting for > 80% of total nuclear diagnostics worldwide. In this review, radiochemical routes for the production of $^{99}Mo$, and the aspects for selecting a suitable process strategy are discussed from the historical viewpoint of $^{99}Mo$ technology developments. Most of the industrial-scale $^{99}Mo$ processes have been based on the fission of $^{235}U$. Recently, important issues have been raised for the conversion of fission $^{99}Mo$ targets from highly enriched uranium to low enriched uranium (LEU). The development of new LEU targets with higher density was requested to compensate for the loss of $^{99}Mo$ yield, caused by a significant reduction of $^{235}U$ enrichment, from the conversion. As the dramatic increment of intermediate level liquid waste is also expected from the conversion, an effective strategy to reduce the waste generation from the fission $^{99}Mo$ production is required. The mitigation of radioxenon emission from medical radioisotope production facilities is discussed in relation with the monitoring of nuclear explosions and comprehensive nuclear test ban. Lastly, the $^{99}Mo$ production process paired with the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute's own LEU target is proposed as one of the most suitable processes for the LEU target.

  • Purpose SUV is one of the parameters that assist diagnosis in origin, metastasis and staging of cancer. Specially, it is important to compare SUV before and after chemo or radiation therapy to find out effectiveness of treatment. Storing PET data which has no quantitative change is needed for SUV comparison. However, there is a possibility to loss the data in external hard drive or MINIpacs that are managed by department of nuclear medicine. The aim of this study is to evaluate SUV and metabolic tumor volume (MTV) among reconstructed data (R-D) in workstation, R-D and re-sliced data (S-D) in PACS. Materials and Methods Data of 20 patients (aged $60.5{\pm}8.3y$) underwent $^{18}F-FDG$ PET (Biograph truepoint 40, mCT 40, mCT 64, mMR, Siemens) study were analysed. $SUV_{max}$, $SUV_{peak}$ and MTV were measured in liver, aorta and tumor after sending R-D in workstation, R-D and S-D in PACS to syngo.via software. Results R-D of workstation and PACS showed the same value as mean $SUV_{max}$ in liver, aorta and tumor were $2.95{\pm}0.59$, $2.35{\pm}0.61$, $10.36{\pm}6.15$ and $SUV_{peak}$ were $2.70{\pm}0.51$, $2.07{\pm}0.43$, $7.67{\pm}3.73$(p>0.05) respectively. Mean $SUV_{max}$ of S-D in PACS were decreased by 5.18%, 7.22%, 12.11% and $SUV_{peak}$ 2.61%, 3.63%, 10.07%(p<0.05). Correlation between R-D and S-D were $SUV_{max}$ 0.99, 0.96, 0.99 and $SUV_{peak}$ 0.99, 0.99, 0.99. And 2SD in balnd-altman analysis were $SUV_{max}$ 0.125, 0.290, 1.864 and $SUV_{peak}$ 0.053, 0.103, 0.826. MTV of R-D in workstation and PACS show the same value as $14.21{\pm}12.72cm^3$(p>0.05). MTV in PACS was decreased by 0.12% compared to R-D(p>0.05). Correlation and 2SD between R-D and S-D were 0.99 and 2.243. Conclusion $SUV_{max}$, $SUV_{peak}$, MTV showed the same value in both of R-D in workstation and PACS. However, there was statistically difference in $SUV_{max}$, $SUV_{peak}$ of S-D compare to R-D despite of high correlation. It is possible to analyse reliable pre and post SUV if storing R-D in main hospital PACS system.

  • We identified microorganisms causing skin disease in slaughtered chickens. Ten microbial strains were isolated from skin wound regions on the back and legs of chickens. Fatty acid composition analysis of the cell membranes of isolated bacteria identified five isolates of Shigella sonnei, Proteus mirabilis (2), and Escherichia coli (2). In addition, 16S rRNA sequencing indicated that S. sonnei (99%), P. mirabilis (99%), and E. coli (99%) were the strains responsible for skin wounds in chickens. Therefore, these three species may be the major pathogenic bacteria causing skin wounds on the back and legs of chickens.

  • We conducted this study to find the optimal correction factor(${\alpha}$) of Lassen's linearization algorithm which has been applied for correction of flow-limited uptake at a high flow range in $^{99m}Tc$ d,l-hexamethylpropy leneamine oxime(HMPAO) and $^{99m}Tc$ ethyl cysteinate dimer(ECD). Ten patients with chronic cerebral infarction were involved in this study. We obtained the corrected $^{99m}Tc$ HMPAO and $^{99m}Tc$-ECD brain SPECT(single photon emission computed tomography) using the algorithm with ${\alpha}$ values that varied from 0.1 to 10 and compared the results with regional cerebral blood flow determined by positron emission tomography (PET-rCBF). The multi-modal volume registration by maximization of mutual information was used for matching between PET-rCBF and SPECT images. The highest correlation coefficient between $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO and $^{99m}Tc$-ECD brain uptake and PET-rCBF was revealed at ${\alpha}$ 1.4 and 2.1, respectively. We concluded that the ${\alpha}$ values of Lassen's linearization algorithm for $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO and $^{99m}Tc$-ECD brain SPECT images were 1.4 and 2.1, respectively to indicate cerebral blood flow with comparison of PET-rCBF.
