The preventive effect of chewing gum containing maltitol, xylitol, gum base, and sugar on remineralization were investigated. The clinical study consisted of 8 weeks' randomized, double blind, controlled, cross-over clinical trials including 24 healthy adults had chew gum. After each test week, remineralization effect was evaluated by measuring microhardness and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Microhardness of experimental chewing gum containing maltitol or xylitol was significantly higher than that of sugar gum (p<0.005). Images of SEM showed the remineralization effect of gum containing gum base, maltitol, or xylitol compared with sugar gum. Maltitol and xylitol gums were more effective in remineralization than sugar gum. It was concluded that maltitol and xylitol can be used as sugar substitute to prevent dental caries.

The austenite phase observed in low carbon HSLA steels is well known to be decomposed to various bainitic microstructures, such as granular bainite, acicular ferrite and bainitic ferrite during continuous cooling process. These bainitic microstructures have been usually identified by using either scanning electron microscope (SEM) or transmission electron microscope (TEM). However, SEM and TEM images do no exactly coincide, because of the quite different sample preparation method in SEM and TEM observations. These conventional analysis method is, thus, not suitable for characterization of the complex bainitic microstructure. In this study, focused ion beam (FIB) technique was applied to make site-specific TEM specimens and to identify the 3-dimensional grain morphologies of the bainitic microstructure. The morphological feature and grain boundary characteristics of each bainitic microstructure were exactly identified.

The use of electron-beam(E-Beam) manufacture systems provides a means to alleviate optic exposure equipment's problems. We designed an E-beam manufacture system with SEM function. Optimal beam scanning is one of the most important conditions in the performance of E-beam and SEM. The performance of E-beam manufacture system and images of SEM are a close affinity with each other. Developed E-beam manufacture system consist of the controllers of high voltage, scanning, optic and high voltage generator. In this paper, we analyze the condition of steady beam scanning and describe the development of controller fer optimal beam scanning.

A new method for measurement of the pore size in a nanohoneycomb structure using atomic force microscopy (AFM) was proposed. Porous type anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) was fabricated as a nanohoneycomb structure to measure the pore size. For measuring pore sizes from AFM images, a criterion was set in porous type AAO. The pore sizes from AFM images were compared with those from SEM images, and the results showed good agreement. The relationship between the pore size and widening time was found to be linear in the range of this study. It was understood as the synchronized effects of the impurity gradient in outer oxide of AAO, mechanical packing and mass transfer increase.

In this study, the changes in hair quality before and after Magic straight perm have been evaluated through a hair damage measurement method. For this, a healthy high school student's (age18 years) wavy hair was selected and permed on the left and right sides. Then, the changes caused by physical methods which were applied during the fl at iron-based Magic straight perm were evaluated based on the hair damage measurement method before and after the Magic straight perm. According to the protein release test after the Magic straight perm, 1.26% in average and 0.14% was observed in Cool Magic straight perm sample. In a field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) test, saw teeth-shaped partial desquamation of cuticle cells and impurities were observed in the warm-treated hair sample. In atomic force microscope (AFM), line-profile is a method to represent roughness data on hair. According to analysis on 3-dimensional (3D) images, the hair with Cool Magic straight perm was lower than the hair with Warm Magic perm in terms of the color change of 3D images. In addition, vertical changes were observed in the hair with Cool Magic perm. As a result, irregular surface roughness was observed. This study proposed a method to minimize hair damage by cooling down the heat with the cool hair straightener as soon as the Warm Magic was finished.

본 실리콘 태양전지 셀을 제작하는데 있어서, 기판 표면에서의 광 흡수를 증가시키기 위한 texturing은 KOH+IPA+DI $H_2O$를 혼합한 에칭용액의 온도를 80도로 유지하면서 1~40분 동안 에칭시간을 각각 다르게 하고 태양전지 시료를 제작하였다. 셀의 특성분석은 SEM과 I-V 특성곡선을 이용하였으며, 실리콘 태양전지 셀의 효율과 texturing에 의한 표면 거칠기 사이의 상관성을 조사한 결과, Texturing이 표면 전체적으로 고르게 이루어진 샘플에서 효율이 높게 나타났다. 에칭이 과도하게 일어난 샘플에서는 효율이 오히려 감소하였다.

영상에서 일정 영역의 화소들이 불규칙적인 형태를 이루는 것을 불량이라 하는데 이를 수학적으로 정확히 정의하기 어렵다는 점이 불량 검출을 쉽지 않게 한다. 하지만 주어진 영상이 다수의 반복되는 패턴을 가지고 있다면 불량이 아닌 영역은 그 외의 다른 영역들로 설명되어 될 수 있다는 점을 이용하여 영상내의 불량 영역을 찾아낼 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 이러한 특성을 이용하여 다양한 패턴이 반복되는 영상에 존재하는 불량을 검출하는 방법을 제시한다. 제시된 방법은 크게 세 단계로 이루어진다. 첫 번째 단계는 interest point 검출단계이다. 두 번째 단계는 적절한 패치의 크기를 결정하는 단계이다. 마지막으로 세 번째 단계는 불량을 검출하는 단계이다. 제시된 방법은 반도체 wafer를 SEM을 이용하여 촬영한 영상들을 통하여 예증된다.

In this study, we presented a newly synthesized pyrene-naphthalene diimide(NDI)-pyrene triad. The optical and structural properties were examined using various characterization techniques. A donor-acceptor-donor triad molecule exhibited a strong charge transfer, though there existed neither intramolecular nor intermolecular hydrogen bonding sites, due to the formation of preferential complementary complex between pyrene and NDI. Powder XRD measurement revealed a sharp and distinctive X-ray patterns, indicating the presence of microcrystalline-like structure. POM images showed anisotropic fingerprint texture similar to that of cholesteric phase, and SEM images showed numerous columnar structures with length of 1 to $10{\mu}m$. Above observation clearly demonstrated that ${\pi}$-complementary NDI-pyrene interactions in the traid was strong enough to form columnar aggregates in the long range.

Surface texturing of crystalline silicon is carried out in alkaline solutions for anisotropic etching that leads to random pyramids of about $10{\mu}m$ in size. Recently textured pyramids size gradually reduced using new solution. In this paper, we investigated that texture pyramids size had an impact on emitter property and front electrode (Ag) contact. To make small (${\sim}3{\mu}m$) and large (${\sim}10{\mu}m$) pyramids size, texturing times control and one side texturing using a silicon nitride film were carried out. Then formation and quality of POCl3-diffused n+ emitter in furnace compare with small and large pyramids by using SEM images, simulation (SILVACO, Athena module) and emitter saturation current density (J0e). After metallization, Ag contact resistance was measured by transfer length method (TLM) pattern. And surface distributions of Ag crystallites were observed by SEM images. Also, performance of cell which is fabricated by screen-printed solar cells is compared by light I-V.
