As an electron scanning microscopes has traditionally required a considerably large room equipped with several service and pipe lines due to its inherent size. As an alternative, a small sized SEM, simply called a mini-SEM, is introduced even if the performance in terms of magnification and resolution is a little inferior to a classical thermal SEM. However, the size and fabrication cost is dramatically reduced, dedicating to opening a new market. The optical system in the mini-SEM is redesigned and specimen stage is quitely reduced and vertical axis is excluded. The design tools and calibration techniques to develope the mini-SEM are introduced and its performance is verified through numerical analysis experiments.

Purpose - This study provides appropriate procedures for EFA to help researchers conduct empirical studies by using PLS-SEM. Research design, data, and methodology - This study addresses the absolute and relative sample size criteria, sampling adequacy, factor extraction models, factor rotation methods, the criterion for the number of factors to retain, interpretation of results, and reporting information. Results - The factor analysis procedure for PLS-SEM consists of the following five stages. First, it is important to look at whether both the Bartlett test of sphericity and the KMO MSA meet the qualitative criteria. Second, PAF is a better choice of methodology. Third, an oblique technique is a suitable method for PLS-SEM. Fourth, a combined approach is strongly recommended to factor retention. PA should be used at the onset. Next, it is recommended using the K1 criterion. In addition, it is necessary to extract factors that increase the total variance explanatory power through the PVA-FS. Finally, it is appropriate to select an item with a factor loading into 0.5 or higher and a communality of 0.5. Conclusions - It is expected that the accurate factor analysis processed for PLS-SEM as previously presented will help us extract more precise factors of the structural model.

고성능 디지털 회로 개발과 구현에 사용되는 SRAM 기반 FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array)는 configuration memory가 SRAM으로 구현되었기 때문에 configuration memory에 소프트 에러가 발생하는 경우 오동작하게 된다. Xilinx사의 FPGA는 configuration memory 영역에 추가된 ECC(Error Correction Code)와 CRC(Cyclic Redundancy Code) 그리고 이들을 활용하는 SEM(Soft Error Mitigation) Controller를 이용하여 이러한 소프트 에러의 영향을 줄일 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 SRAM 기반 FPGA에서 SEM Controller에 의해 configuration memory 영역이 소프트 에러로부터 보호될 때 FPGA의 신뢰도를 가용성 관점에서 해석하고 그 효과를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 FPGA 계열별 SEM Controller의 소프트 에러 정정 성능에 따른 가용성 함수를 유도하고 FPGA 계열별 사례를 적용하여 비교하였다. 연구 결과는 SRAM 기반 FPGA의 선정 및 가용성 예측에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: We subjected scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images of the active layer of EBT3 film to texture analysis to determine the dose-response curve. Methods: Uncoated Gafchromic EBT3 films were prepared for direct surface SEM scanning. Absorbed doses of 0-20 Gy were delivered to the film's surface using a 6 MV TrueBeam STx photon beam. The film's surface was scanned using a SEM under 100× and 3,000× magnification. Four textural features (Homogeneity, Correlation, Contrast, and Energy) were calculated based on the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) using the SEM images corresponding to each dose. We used R-square to evaluate the linear relationship between delivered doses and textural features of the film's surface. Results: Correlation resulted in higher linearity and dose-response curve sensitivity than Homogeneity, Contrast, or Energy. The R-square value was 0.964 for correlation using 3,000× magnified SEM images with 9-pixel offsets. Dose verification was used to determine the difference between the prescribed and measured doses for 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 Gy as 0.09, 1.96, -2.29, 0.17, and 0.08 Gy, respectively. Conclusions: Texture analysis can be used to accurately convert microscopic structural changes to the EBT3 film's surface into absorbed doses. Our proposed method is feasible and may improve the accuracy of film dosimetry used to protect patients from excess radiation exposure.

이 논문은 SEM(Scanning Electron Microsopy) 경통부에서 전자빔의 집속특성을 최적화하기 위한 방법을 다루고 있다. SEM 에서 물체 표면을 확대하기 위해서는 경통부를 지나는 전자빔을 효과적으로 집속하여 표면에 충돌하는 프로브 직경을 줄이는 것이 중요하다. 이 전자빔의 집속정도를 나타내는 지표가 반배율이다. 본 연구는 전자빔의 집속특성을 효과적으로 구현하기 위해 그에 영향을 끼치는 경통부의 설계 인자들을 렌즈 해석과 광선 추적을 통해 알아본다. 이 결과를 근거로 민감도 분석을 수행하여 설계 인자들이 빔의 집속에 끼치는 영향의 정도를 정량적으로 비교해 볼 수 있다. 이러한 전자빔의 특성에 따른 설계 인자의 분석은 경통부 설계에 있어 중요한 기초 정보로 활용될 수 있다.

Old architectural wood materials damaged by a fire were evaluated on the basis of wood species and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation of wood tissues in combination with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS) analysis. Results of SEM observation showed that tracheid wall thickness of burned parts was very thin compared with undamaged and sound wood, and tylosoid in the resin canals disappeared after the exposure to fire. SEM-EDXS analysis indicated that carbon and oxygen peaks occurred in the original energy band, and the carbon peak was higher than that of the oxygen in the burned part. A computerized tomography was also undertaken to investigate the carbonization layer formed by fire and possible internal defects.

Scanning electron microscopy / energy dispersive X-ray analyzer(SEM/EDX) has played an important role for evaluation the source of atmospheric particle because it is a powerful tool for characterizing individual particles. The SEM/EDX system provides various physical parameters like optical diameter, as well as chemical information for a particle-by-particle basis. The purpose of the study was to classify individual particle emitted from the point sources based on clustering analysis and physico-chemical analysis by SEM/EDX. The total of 490 individual particle were analyzed at 8 point sources including coal-fired power plant, incinerator, H-C oil boiler, and metal manufacturing industry. The main components were Si and AI in the coal-fired power plant, Cl and Na in the domestic waste Incinerator, S in the H-C oil boiler and S and Fe in the metal manufactory industry, respectively.

The present study proposes and tests an integrative model for global consumers to examine the relation among fashion marketing mix, brand attitude, brand loyalty, and purchase intention in the jeans market. The questionnaire surveys 692 consumers in the United States, China, and France. The statistical analysis methods that are used are as follows: frequency analysis, factor analysis, SEM analysis, and multi-group analysis. The results show that fashionability, perceived quality, and advertising have a direct and also a positive effect on brand attitude; however, advertising didn't have a direct effect on purchase intention. In addition, the results of the SEM analysis show that brand attitude leads to brand loyalty, while also showing a direct and indirect positive effect on purchase intention. Furthermore, the multi-group analysis reveals significant differences in SEM among countries such as the United States, China, and France.

도심지 지하공간의 개발과 운행선 하부를 저토피로 입체 교차화하는 시설 증가에 따라 비개착식 공법의 수요는 점차 증가추세에 있으나 대다수의 공법은 중대구경 강관을 압입하여 루프를 형성하고 내부를 굴착하는 파이프루프(Pipe roof) 계열의 공법이 주로 적용되고 있다. 강관 압입 시 발생되는 이완영역 및 하중은 여러 인자의 영향을 받게 되나 가장 큰 요소는 압입하는 강관의 크기에 좌우되며 이는 강관 루프 내 지중구조물에 작용하는 하중의 크기로 볼 수 있다. 지반의 교란 및 이완하중 발생을 최소화시키기 위해 개발된 SEM공법(Super Equilibrium Method)은 기존의 중대구경 강관 대신 ${\Phi}114mm$ 내외의 소구경 강관을 사용한다. 이 소구경 강관을 SEM파일로 명명하였으며 강관의 선 압입 및 그라우팅 보강을 실시한 후 지반의 침하나 융기 없이 지반 내 횡단구조물을 유압잭을 이용하여 압입하게 된다. 이와 같이 SEM공법의 구성 중 지보역할을 하는 SEM파일은 선단부 굴착 시 지반의 붕락을 방지하고 상재하중을 지지하기 위한 길이 5 m 내외의 Fore poling 파일이며 이 파일의 배치간격, 시공연장, 부재의 강성 등을 산정하기 위해서는 이완영역의 적절한 산정이 필수적이다. 본 논문은 SEM공법의 최적설계를 위하여 SEM파일 압입 시 발생되는 이완하중 산정 값을 비교분석하였다. 이완영역 산정에 근거한 주요 이론식 및 경험식들의 영향인자를 고려하여 분석하고 FEM analysis (유한요소 해석)를 수행하여 SEM파일에 적합한 이완하중 산정을 검토하였다. 또한 실제 SEM파일 압입 및 굴착 시 발생되는 지반이완을 확인하기 위해 강관압입 축소모형실험을 수행하였으며 토피고/강관(H/D)에 따른 지표침하 및 지반이완을 정량적으로 검토하였다.

Many researches were focused on the data which obtained from chemical bulk analysis. It is difficult to evaluate source contribution by wet type chemical bulk analysis. In this study, we have reviewed the characterization of individual particle for source identification. We analyzed by SEM/EDX methods. We have obtained average geometric particle diameter measured by optical diameter which were resulted from SEM/EDX image scan, representative physical diameter of individual particle was $3.38\;{\mu}m\;in\;A,\;3.67\;{\mu}m\;in\;B$. In the result of image analysis at each spots particles, both samples non-sphere shapes, C-rich particles. In consequence of chemical analysis of individual particle, each sampling sites some elements.
