In order to measure the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of a sample which is too large to use commercially available chamber, a stainless steel vacuum chamber (VC) (with an internal diameter of 205 mm and a height of 50 mm) was manufactured and the temperature of the chamber was controlled using an oven. After concentrating the volatiles of the sample in the chamber by helium gas, it was made possible to remove residual volatile substances present in the chamber under reduced pressure ((2 ± 1) × 10-2 mmHg). The chamber was connected to a purge & trap (P&T) using a 6 port valve to concentrate the VOCs, which were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) after thermal desorption (VC-P&T-GC-MS). Using toluene, the toluene recovery rate of this device was 85 ± 2 %, reproducibility was 5 ± 2 %, and the detection limit was 0.01 ng L-1. The method of removing VOCs remaining in the chamber with helium and the method of removing those with reduced pressure was compared using Korean drinking water regulation (KDWR) VOC Mix A (5 μL of 100 ㎍ mL-1) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT, 2 μL of 500 ㎍ mL-1). In case of using helium, which requires a large amount of gas and time, reduced pressure ((2 ± 1) × 10-2 mmHg) only during the GC-MS running time, could remove VOCs and BHT to less than 0.1 % of the original injection concentration. As a result of analyzing volatile substances using VC-P&T-GC-MS of six types of cell phone case, BHT was detected in four types and quantitatively analyzed. Maintaining the chamber at reduced pressure during the GC-MS analysis time eliminated memory effect and did not affect the next sample analysis. The volatile substances in a cell phone case were also analyzed by dynamic headspace (HT3) and GC-MS, and the results of the analysis were compared with those of VC-P&T-GC-MS. Considering the chamber volume and sample weight, the VC-P&T configuration was able to collect volatile substances more efficiently than the HT3. The VC-P&T-GC-MS system is believed to be useful for VOCs measurement of inhomogeneous large sample or devices used inside clean rooms.

고농도 과산화수소를 이용한 연구가 활발해짐에 따라 과산화수소의 국내 생산을 위한 증류 방법에 대한 연구가 요구된다. 증류 방법에는 증류할 물질의 공급방식과 증류 회수, 증류 압력 등의 증류 조건에 따라 여러 가지 방법이 존재하며 과산화수소 증류에는 진공증류법이 사용된다. 진공 증류는 과산화수소의 열분해와 공기 중 입자와의 반응을 줄일 수 있다. 증류 조건은 Raoult's law를 이용하여 결정하였다. 실험 장치의 낮은 진공도와 진공도의 조절이 중요한 문제로 나타났으나 진공 챔버의 교체로 진공의 누설을 막아 진공도를 높였으며, 실험 장치에 정량밸브를 설치하여 진공도를 조절하였다.

Recently, graphene and graphene-based materials such as graphene oxide (GO) or reduced graphene oxide (R-GO) draws a great attention for electronic devices due to their structures of one atomic layer of carbon hexagon that have excellent mechanical, electrical, thermal, optical properties and very high specific surface area that can be high potential for chemical functionalization. R-GO is a promising candidate because it can be prepared with low-cost from solution process by chemical oxidation and exfoliation using strong acids and oxidants to produce graphene oxide (GO) and its subsequent reduction. R-GO has been used as semiconductor or conductor materials as well as sensing layer for bio-molecules or ions. In this work, reduced graphene oxide field-effect transistor (R-GO FET) has been fabricated with ITO extended gate structure that has sensing area on ITO extended gate part. R-GO FET device was encapsulated by tetratetracontane (TTC) layer using thermal evaporation. A thermal annealing process was carried out at $140^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours in the same thermal vacuum chamber to remove defects in R-GO film before deposition of TTC at $50^{\circ}C$ with thickness of 200 nm. As a result of this process, R-GO FET device has a very high stability and durability for months to serve as a transducer for sensing applications.

This paper is to report the results on the design and construction of a thermal plasma generator with high current DC source. Also, this paper presents the methods to stabilize plasma and to find effects of process variables on plasma characteristics. For this purpose, the reaction chamber, vacuum system, plasma generating torch, magnetic field generating coil with power supply, high current DC source and the other parts have been designed. Fundamental properties of the thermal plasma under various conditions have been measured and analyzed. Magnetic Reynolds Number has been introduced to explain the relationship between plasma and external magnetic field. Through this number, the effect of magnetic field on the plasma has been explained under various flow rates and pressure. A sudden increase in the plasma voltage has been observed with the increase of magnetic field. From this, fundamental changes in plasma flow are believed to occur at the nozzle, and an effort to explain the phenomenon has been tried.

Recently, Point-of-care (POC) testing microdevices enable to do the patient monitoring, drug screening, pathogen detection in the outside of hospital. Immunochromatographic strip (ICS) is one of the diagnostic technologies which are widely applied to POC detection. Relatively low cost, simplicity to use, easy interpretations of the diagnostic results and high stability under any circumstances are representative advantages of POC diagnosis. It would provide colorimetric results more conveniently, if the genetic analysis microsystem incorporates the ICS as a detector part. In this work, we develop a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) microfluidic device integrated with a ROSGENE strip for colorimetric influenza H1N1 virus detection. The integrated RT-PCR- ROSGENE device is consist of four functional units which are a pneumatic micropump for sample loading, 2 ${\mu}L$ volume RT-PCR chamber for target gene amplification, a resistance temperature detector (RTD) electrode for temperature control, and a ROSGENE strip for target gene detection. The device was fabricated by combining four layers: First wafer is for RTD microfabrication, the second wafer is for PCR chamber at the bottom and micropump channel on the top, the third is the monolithic PDMS, and the fourth is the manifold for micropump operation. The RT-PCR was performed with subtype specific forward and reverse primers which were labeled with Texas-red, serving as a fluorescent hapten. A biotin-dUTP was used to insert biotin moieties in the PCR amplicons, during the RT-PCR. The RT-PCR amplicons were loaded in the sample application area, and they were conjugated with Au NP-labeled hapten-antibody. The test band embedded with streptavidins captures the biotin labeled amplicons and we can see violet colorimetric signals if the target gene was amplified with the control line. The off-chip RT-PCR amplicons of the influenza H1N1 virus were analyzed with a ROSGENE strip in comparison with an agarose gel electrophoresis. The intensities of test line was proportional to the template quantity and the detection sensitivity of the strip was better than that of the agarose gel. The test band of the ROSGENE strip could be observed with only 10 copies of a RNA template by the naked eyes. For the on-chip RT-PCR-ROSGENE experiments, a RT-PCR cocktail was injected into the chamber from the inlet reservoir to the waste outlet by the micro-pump actuation. After filling without bubbles inside the chamber, a RT-PCR thermal cycling was executed for 2 hours with all the microvalves closed to isolate the PCR chamber. After thermal cycling, the RT-PCR product was delivered to the attached ROSGENE strip through the outlet reservoir. After dropping 40 ${\mu}L$ of an eluant buffer at the end of the strip, the violet test line was detected as a H1N1 virus indicator, while the negative experiment only revealed a control line and while the positive experiment a control and a test line was appeared.

정지궤도위성과 같은 차세대 대형위성의 우주궤도환경 모사를 위해 한국항공우주연구원은 유효직경 Φ8m, 유효길이 L10m의 대형 열진공챔버를 구축해오고 있다. 우주환경은 고진공 환경이며 태양 복사열에 의한 고온 환경 및 극저온이 반복되는 가혹한 환경으로 특징지어진다. 가혹한 우주환경에 의해서 위성체의 주요부품에 기능장애가 초래되기도 하고 이는 결국 임무의 실패로 이어지기도 한다. 위와 같은 이유들로 인하여 위성체는 지상에서 우주환경시험을 거쳐 기능 및 작동상태를 점검해야 하며, 이를 위해서는 우주환경을 모사할 수 있는 우주환경 모사장비가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 대형 열진공 챔버를 효율적이고, 안정적으로 구동을 위한 모든 제어로직이 포함되어 있다.

횡진동 모드 압전진동자의 우주-항공산업에의 적극적인 활용을 위하여 우주환경을 모사한 열진공 챔버를 사용하여 $-100^{\circ}C{\sim}90^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 PZT-5계열의 압전세라믹 진동자의 온도변화에 따른 특성변화를 조사하였다. 그 결과 공진 및 반공진주파수는 상온일 때를 중심으로 온도의 변화에 따라 증가하였고 유전상수의 경우 주어진 온도 범위에서 2500~7500의 범위에서 선형적으로 증가하였다. 기계적 손실은 0.08~0.03의 범위에서 선형적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이들에 대한 회귀분석을 통하여 1차원 및 2차원 회귀함수를 이용하여 압전진동자의 각 특성에 대한 온도의존함수들을 도출하였다. 이들 함수를 적용하여 구한 횡모드 압전 진동자의 입력어드미턴스의 계산결과는 측정결과와 좋은 일치를 보이고 있었으며 우주환경에서의 온도에 따른 특성변화 예측에 유효함을 확인할 수 있었다.
