아르곤 방전 기체의 음 글로우 영역에서 자발적 직동의 광검류 신호를 관찰하였다. 자발적 진동의 광검규 신호는 3 mA 보다 낮은 땅선 전류에서 나타난다. 준안정 준위의 인자 밀도 변화와 1s-2p 전이의 방출 세기를 동시에 측정한 결과, 자발적 진동 신호를 발생시키는 메커니즘 중의 한 가지는 느린 전자의 충돌에 의한 준안정 준위 원자의 단계적 이온화이다.

This study was done to investigate whether cholic acid derivatives have anti-stress activity in various stress models. Two cholic acid derivatives, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and tauroursodeoxycholic acid (WDCA), were used. physical, psychological, chemical and environmental stress models were performed. Adrenal weight, serum glucose levels and ALP activity were elevated in restraint stress model, but this elevation was prevented by UDCA treatment. Moreover, UDCA and TUDCA inhibited exploratory and spontaneous movements in oscillation stress model. In alcohol-induced stress model, TUDCA improved rotarod performance. UDCA and TUDCA significantly reduced the involution of lymphoid organs and the increment of WBC counts in cold stress model. These findings suggest that choric acid derivatives have antistress effects in various stress models.

Thermoacoustic oscillations (TAOs) are spontaneous pressure oscillations frequently seen in hydrogen or helium cryogenic systems. Half-open tubes connected to cryogenic fluid with a closed room temperature end have a high potential for oscillation generation. Thermoacoustic oscillations will result in significant pressure fluctuations and additional heat load, endangering the security and stability of the cryogenic system. The goal of this paper is to investigate TAOs in superfluid helium using both theoretical and experimental methods. Five half-open tubes with varied typical inner diameters inserted into superfluid helium were installed in a test cryostat. The onset characteristics of thermoacoustic oscillations were presented and studied. The effect of temperature profile was discussed. Finally, a simple eliminating method was introduced.

Electrophysiological phenomena of pyramidal cells in the CA1 area of the dorsal hippocampus were recorded from and filled with neurobiotin in anesthetized rats. The electropharmacological properties of membrane as well as the cellular-synaptic generation of rhythmic slow activity (theta) were examined. The intracellular response characteristics of these pyramidal cells were distinctly different from responses of interneurons. Pyramidal cells had a high resting membrane potential, a low input resistance, and a large amplitude action potential. A afterhyperpolarization was followed a single action potential. Most of pyramidal cells did not display a spontaneous firing. Pyramidal cells displayed weak inward rectification and anodal break excitation. The slope of the frequency-current relation was 53.4 Hz/nA for the first interspike interval and 15.9 Hz/nA for the last intervals, suggesting the presence of spike frequency adaptation. Neurobiotin-filled neurons showed pyramidal morphology. Cells were generally bipolar dendritc processes ramifying in stratum lacunosum-moleculare, radiatum, and oriens. Commissural stimulation discharged pyramidal cells, followed by excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs and IPSPs). The frequency of theta-related membrane potential oscillation was voltage-independent in pyramidal neurons. At strong depolarization levels (less than 30 mV) pyramidal cells emitted sodium spike oscillation, phase-locked to theta. The observations provide direct evidence that theta-related rhythmic hyperpolarization of principal cells is brought by the rhythmically discharging interneurons. Furthermore, the findings in which interneurons were also paced by rhythmic inhibitory postsynaptic potentials during theta suggest that they were periodically hyperpolarized by their GABAergic septal afferents.

자발 진동하는 층류 예혼합 분젠 화염을 관찰하기 위하여 분기관을 가진 연소기를 제작 하였다. 특히, 조건에 따른 화염 거동을 살펴봤으며, 화염 표면적과 열발생 변동의 관계에 대하여 고찰하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 당량비는 1.1 이고, 노즐 출구 평균 유속은 1.75 m/sec 이다. 연소 챔버와 분기관의 길이비(L.R.)는 연소기 내 압력 변동에 영향을 미치며, 결과적으로 화염 거동 특성이 달라짐을 관찰하였다. 또한, 간섭 필터의 유무에 따른 $OH^*$, $CH^*$, 그리고 화염 자발광은 정성적으로 유사한 거동을 나타냈으며, 자발 진동하는 층류 예혼합 분젠 화염의 화염 표면적 변동과 열발생 변동은 선형적인 관계를 가짐을 확인하였다.

Many gastrointestinal muscles show electrical oscillation, so-called 'slow wave', originated from interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs). Thus, a technique to freshly isolate the cells is indispensable to explore the electrophysiological properties of the ICCs. To apply an enzyme solution on the serosal surface for cell isolation, the intestine was inverted and 0.02% trypsin solution and 0.04% collagenase solution were applied to serosal cavity. After the enzyme treatment, mucosal layer was removed and longitudinal muscle layer was gently separated from the rest of tissue. The thin layer was stretched in the recording chamber and mounted on an inverted microscope. Using ${\beta}-escine$, perforated whole cell patch clamp technique was used. Under a microscope, the tissue showed smooth muscle cells and interstitial cells around the myenteric plexus. Under voltage clamp condition, three types of membrane potential were recorded. One group of interstitial cells, which were positive to methylene blue and CD34, showed spontaneous outward current. These cells had bipolar shape and were considered as fibroblast-like cells because of their peculiar shape and arrangement. Another group, positive to c-kit and methylene blue, showed spontaneous inward current. These cells had more rounded shape and processes and were considered as ICCs. The third, positive to c-kit and had granules containing methylene blue, showed quiet membrane potentials under the voltage-clamp mode. These cells appeared to be resident macrophages. Therefore, in the freshly isolated thin tissue preparation, methylene blue could easily identify three types of cells rather than morphological properties. Using this method, we were able to study electrical properties of fibroblast and residential macrophage as well as myenteric ICCs.

본 연구에서는 개념적으로 기생 발진을 비롯한 증폭기의 오동작 가능성을 최소화하고 좁은 선폭의 연속파 레이저를 펄스 증폭하기 위한 목적으로 새로운 구조를 갖는 사중경로 색소 레이저 증폭기를 제안하고 실험적으로 구현하였다. 펌핑 레이저의 펄스 에너지가 5.6 mJ이고 연속파 레이저의 입력 강도 100 mW일 때, 사중경로 증폭기는 약 130 MHz(FWHM)의 선폭과 1.5 mJ의 에너지를 갖는 레이저 펄스를 출력하였으며, 이는 약 2$\times$106 이상의 높은 증폭 이득과 27%의 에너지 효율에 해당하는 것이다. 사중경로 증폭기 내에 회절격자를 사용하면, 파장 선택 소자가 없는 보통의 증폭기와 비교할 때 총 출력 에너지가 4% 정도 증가됨과 동시에 ASE가 차지하는 비율이 10배 이상 감소하여, 총 출력 빔에 대해 ASE 에너지가 1.5% 이하로 억제된다.

The magneto-transport properties of an individual single crystalline Bi nanowire grown by a spontaneous growth method are reported. A four-terminal device based on an individual 400-nm-diameter nanowire was successfully fabricated using a plasma etching technique that removed an oxide layer that had formed on the surface of the nanowire. Large transverse ordinary magnetoresistance (1401%) and negative longitudinal ordinary magnetoresistance (-38%) were measured at 2 K. It was observed that the period of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in transverse geometry was $0.074^{T-1}$, $0.16^{T-1}$ and $0.77^{T-1}$, which is in good agreement with those of bulk Bi. However, it was found that the period of SdH oscillation in longitudinal geometry is $0.24^{T-1}$, which is larger than the value of $0.16^{T-1}$ reported for bulk Bi. The deviation is attributable to the spatial confinement arising from scattering at the nanowire surface boundary.

초기투과도 0.48과 0.38인 포화흡수체 $Cr^{4+}$: YAG를 사용한 수동 큐스위칭 Nd:YAG 공진기에서 포화흡수의 초기 광흡수 효과로 낮은 Q-상태에서 나타나는 포화흡수체의 투과 광손실 변화와 더불어 레이저 매질의 펌핑된 밀도반전 상태를 분석하였다. 포화흡수체의 초기 광흡수로 수동 큐스위칭 열림동작때 나타나는 포화흡수체의 투과도는 각각 0.70$\pm$0.01과 0.62$\pm$0.01이었다. 이는 큐스위칭 레이저 공진기의 초기 광손실이 간소함을 의미한다. 큐스위칭 열림동작 시점에서 측정된 두 $Cr^{4+}$:YAG의 기저상태 $Cr^{4+}$ 밀도수는 약 1.4${\times}{10^{17}}$$cm^{-3}$이고 기저상태에 대한 여기상태의 $Cr^{4+}$이온밀도수의 비는 약 44%이었다. 또, 큐스위칭 펄스 발생을 위해 펌핑된 최소 반전밀도수는 각각 3.6${\times}{10^{17}}$과 3.9${\times}{10^{17}}$ $cm^{-3}$이고 양자추출효율은 두 경우 모두 약 0.32였다. 낮은 Q-상태에서 나타나는 포화흡수체의 광흡수 효과를 고려한 수동 큐스위칭 레이저 출력에너지의 수정 이론값은 각각 18과 18.5 mJ로 측정된 실험값 약 17$\pm$1과 18$\pm$1.5mJ과 잘 일치함을 보였다.
