T1-, and T2-weighted imagings and FLAIR (fluid attenuated inversion recovery) imaging are fundamental imaging methods in the brain. T1-weighted imaging is a spin-echo sequence with short TR and short TE and produces the tissue contrast by different T1 relaxation times. In other words, short TR maximizes the difference of the longituidinal magnetization recovery between the tissues. T2-weighted imaging is a spin-echo sequence with long TR and long TE and produces the tissue contrast by different T2 relaxation times. Long TE maximizes the difference of the transverse magnetization decay between the tissues. FLAIR is an inversion recovery sequence using 180 degree inversion pulse. 2500 msec of inversion time is applied to suppress the CSF signal.

Polycrystalline CdTe thin films have been studied for photovoltaic application because of their high absorption coefficient and optimal band energy(1.45 eV) for solar energy conversion. In this study CdTe thin films were deposited on CdS(chemical bath deposition)/ITO(indium tin oxide) substrate by rf-magnetron sputtering under various conditions. Structural optical and electrical properties are investigated with XRD UV-Visible spectrophotometer SEM and solar simulator respectively. The fabricated CdTe/CdS solar cell exhibited open circuit voltage( $V_{oc}$ ) of 610 mV short circuit current density( $J_{sc}$ ) of 17.2 mA/c $m^2$and conversion efficiency of about 5% at optimal sputtering conditions.

Transparent CdS films with low electrical restivity on glass substrates were prepared by coating a CdS slurry which contained 10 wt.% $CdCl_2$, and sintering in a nitrogen atmosphere at $600^{\circ}C$ for 2hr. All-polycrystalline CdS/CdTe solar cells were fabricated by coating CdTe slurries, which contained 1.0 or 4.5 wt.% $CdCl_2$, on the sintered CdS films and sintering at $700^{\circ}C$ for various periods of sintering. The spectral responses of the sintered CdS/CdTe solar cells were measured and compared with theoretically calculated quantum efficiency. The spectral responses of the sintered CdS/CdTe solar cells in the short-wavelength region decreases with-increasing sintering time. The poor response in this region is attributed to the existence of the Cd-S-Te solid solution in the compositional junction. The decrease in the maximum response in the long-wavelength region as the sintering exceeds certain time appears to be caused by the increase in the depth of the buried homo junction and by the increase in the series resistance. The $CdCl_2$ in the CdTe layer during sintering enchances the interdiffusion of S, Te or donor impurities across the metallurgical Junction causing the formation of deeper n-p junction in the CdTe layer.

Microwatt power level at relatively high voltage(order of volt) was produced by $Bi_{0.5}Sb_{1.5}Te_{3}/Bi_{2}Te_{2.4}Se_{0.6}$ thin film thermoelectric generators, and maximum output power varied with temperature difference in the square-law relation. Output voltage and current were possible to control by changing the way of electrical connection as well as the number of stacking plate-modules. Variation of open circuit voltage and short circuit current with temperature difference showed a linear relationship. There were, however, some differences in variations; open circuit voltage were dependent on the number of plate-module when connected in series, but it was not for parallel connection. On the other hand, short circuit current showed the opposite behavior to the case of open circuit current.

The purpose of this study is to know the differences of MR spectra, obtained from normal volunteers by variable TE value, through the quantitative analysis of brain metabolites by peak integral and SNR between 1.5T and 3.0T, together with PRESS and STEAM pulse sequence. Single-voxel MR proton spectra of the human brain obtained from normal volunteers at both 3.0T MR system (Magnetom Trio, SIEMENS, Germany) and 1.5T MR system (Signa Twinspeed, GE, USA) using the STEAM and PRESS pulse sequence. 10 healthy volunteers (3.0T:3 males, 2 females; 1.5T : 3 males, 2 females) with the range from 22 to 30 years old (mean 26 years) participated in our study. They had no personal or familial history of neurological diseases and had a normal neurological examination. Data acquisition parameters were closely matched between the two field strengths. Spectra were recorded in the white matter of the occipital lobe. Spectra were compared in terms of resolution and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), and echo time(TE) were estimated at both field strengths. Imaging parameters was used for acquisition of the proton spectrum were as follow : TR 2000msec, TE 30ms, 40ms, 50ms, 60ms, 90ms, 144ms, 288ms, NA=96, VOI=$20{\times}20{\times}20mm3$. As the echo times were increased, the spectra obtained from 3.0T and 1.5T show decreased peak integral and SNR at both pulse sequence. PRESS pulse sequence shows higher SNR and signal intensity than those of STEAM. Especially, Spectra in normal volunteers at 3.0T demonstrated significantly improved overall SNR and spectral resolution compared to 1.5T(Fig1). The spectra acquired at short echo time, 3T MR system shows a twice improvement in SNR compared to 1.5T MR system(Table. 1). But, there was no significant difference between 3.0Tand 1.5T at long TE It is concluded that PRESS and short TE is useful for quantification of the brain metabolites at 3.0T MRS, our standardized protocol for quantification of the brain metabolites at 3.0T MRS is useful to evaluate the brain diseases by monitoring the systematic changes of biochemical metabolites concentration in vivo.

Abstract The short range structure of pure $TeO_2$ glass was studied by neutron diffraction. In order to decide the values of $Te{\cdot}O$ bond length ($d_{Te-O}$) and the coordination number $(N_{Te-O})$ of oxygen atoms surrounding a Te atom, the first peak of the $Q_{max}$ = 20, 23, 25, 28 and 30 in the highly resolved RDF curves was deconvoluted by the least - squares method under the assumption that both of the pair distribution functions have a Gaussian form On the basis of these results, it is found that pure $TeO_2$ glass consists of $TeO_4$ structural units, in which Te atoms are coordinated by four oxygens and each two oxygen atoms are bonded to a Te atom with the average bond length of 1.916 $\AA$ and 2.123 $\AA$, respectively.

Te-thin films were highly proper material for optical recording media, but has the demerit of short archival life time due to the unstability to humidity. In order to restrain the degradation, Te$_{100-x}$Se$_{x}$ alloys adding Se stable for the humidity were fabricated. Primarily, to measure the degradation rate with varing the composition of Se to x=5, 10, 14, 25 at.% at Te$_{100-x}$ Se$_{x}$, the change of light transmittance was used in various temperature-humidity environments. As the results, it was showed that Se$_{86}$Te$_{14}$ thin was the most proper composition for the improvement of degradation restraint.int.int.

Design of W-band TE10 to TEM mode converter for radial power combiner is proposed in this paper. The proposed structure is used with generally available pin to realize TEM mode and is designed to convert TE10 to TEM mode gradually using 2-step impedance transformer and back short. The pin of proposed mode converter is well bonded to the housing so that environment conditions such as vibration or shock are not affected. The proposed mode converter, in a back-to-back configuration, has less than 1.55 dB insertion loss and more than 10 dB return loss from 92.5 GHz to 97.7 GHz. Proposed converter is expected compact radar and various applications requiring for high power and stable environment conditions.

To address the problems of low precision rate, insufficient feature extraction, and poor contextual ability in existing text sentiment analysis methods, a mixed model account of a CNN-BiLSTM-TE (convolutional neural network, bidirectional long short-term memory, and topic extraction) model was proposed. First, Chinese text data was converted into vectors through the method of transfer learning by Word2Vec. Second, local features were extracted by the CNN model. Then, contextual information was extracted by the BiLSTM neural network and the emotional tendency was obtained using softmax. Finally, topics were extracted by the term frequency-inverse document frequency and K-means. Compared with the CNN, BiLSTM, and gate recurrent unit (GRU) models, the CNN-BiLSTM-TE model's F1-score was higher than other models by 0.0147, 0.006, and 0.0052, respectively. Then compared with CNN-LSTM, LSTM-CNN, and BiLSTM-CNN models, the F1-score was higher by 0.0071, 0.0038, and 0.0049, respectively. Experimental results showed that the CNN-BiLSTM-TE model can effectively improve various indicators in application. Lastly, performed scalability verification through a takeaway dataset, which has great value in practical applications.
