최근에 양전자의 고유 성질을 이용하여 반도체 및 도체의 표면, 계면 그리고 박막의 특성을 분석하는 기술로 소개되고 있다. 양전자는 양의 전하를 갖으며, 반물질인 전자와 쌍소멸하면서 감마선과 Auger 전자를 방출하는 특성을 이용하여 원소의 화학적 분석을 처음으로 증명하였다 (1987, UTA). 이후 도체 및 반도체의 표면 및 박막성장의 초기 성장 양상을 EAES, LEED와 상호보완적으로 활용하여 다양한 결과를 보고한 바 있다. 최근에는 기존의 양전자 이용 Auger전자 분광기의 단점을 극복하고 Time-Of-Flight(TOF) 시스템을 활용하여 향상된 성능과 Cu(100) 표면에서 얻은 전자 스펙트럼의 연구 결과를 소개하고자 한다. UTA의 TOF PAES 시스템을 이용하여 Si(100)표면에 Se 원자의 열적 안정성을 연구하였다. 1ML의 Se을 Si(100)위에 성장한 후 가열하면서 PAES의 스펙트럼을 반복적으로 취하였다. $800^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도로 가열하는 경우 Se MVV Auger 피크는 약해지고 Si LVV 피크가 나타나기 시작했다. MgO(100) 표면과 Cu2O/ITO 시스템의 온도 안정성 결과를 보고하고 PAES의 향상된 표면 선택도 등 장점이 표면 분석 기술로서 적합함을 보고하고자 한다.

Various microorganisms play important roles in food fermentation, food spoilage, and agriculture. In this study, the biotype of 54 yeast and bacterial strains having high potential for utilization in food and agriculture, including Candida spp., Lactobacillus spp., and Acetobacter spp., were characterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). This characterization using a fast and robust method provides much-needed information on the selected microorganisms and will facilitate effective usage of these strains in various applications. Importantly, the unique protein profile of each microbial species obtained from this study was used to create a database of fingerprints from these species. The database was validated using microbial strains of the same species by comparing the mass spectra with the created database through pattern matching. The created reference database provides crucial information and is useful for further utilization of a large number of valuable microorganisms relevant to food and agriculture.

BaO layers were formed on the Si(100) surface by thermal evaporation of barium metal with simultaneous oxidation. The atomic structure of BaO layers at the initial stage of the deposition was investigated by the scattering intensity variation of $He^+$ions on time-of-flight (TOF) impact-collision ion scattering (ICISS). The results show that several number of BaO layers are formed on the Si(100) surface with the lattice parameter of bulk phase, and the occupation of oxygen atoms of the BaO layers is on-top site of silicon atoms.

In this paper range measurement systems using ultrasonic and visual sensors are designed. By varying the focus of a camera, the range to a target pattern is computed. Pour different methods are tested for the focusing-based range measurement. The best result is obtained when counting edge pixels found by Laplacian operator. Higher accuracy can be obtained by fusing the measurement of camera focusing with that of ultrasonic sensor. The system designed is experimented within the range of 300-450mm.

This paper presents a method for a hybrid (color and depth) camera system construction using a photogrammetric technology. A TOF depth camera is efficient since it measures range information of objects in real-time. However, there are some problems of the TOF depth camera such as low resolution and noise due to surface conditions. Therefore, it is essential to not only correct depth noise and distortion but also construct the hybrid camera system providing a high resolution texture map for generating a 3D model using the depth camera. We estimated geometry of the hybrid camera using a traditional relative orientation algorithm and performed texture mapping using backward mapping based on a condition of collinearity. Other algorithm was compared to evaluate performance about the accuracy of a model and texture mapping. The result showed that the proposed method produced the higher model accuracy.

The depth information of an image is used in a variety of applications including 2D/3D conversion, multi-view extraction, modeling, depth keying, etc. There are various methods to acquire depth information, such as the method to use a stereo camera, the method to use the depth camera of flight time (TOF) method, the method to use 3D modeling software, the method to use 3D scanner and the method to use a structured light just like Microsoft's Kinect. In particular, the depth camera of TOF method measures the distance using infrared light, whereas TOF sensor depends on the sensitivity of optical light of an image sensor (CCD/CMOS). Thus, it is mandatory for the existing image sensors to get an infrared light image by bundling several pixels; these requirements generate a phenomenon to reduce the resolution of an image. This thesis proposed a measure to acquire a high-resolution image through gradual area movement while acquiring a low-resolution image through pixel bundling method. From this measure, one can obtain an effect of acquiring image information in which illumination intensity (lux) and resolution were improved without increasing the performance of an image sensor since the image resolution is not improved as resolving a low-illumination intensity (lux) in accordance with the gradual pixel bundling algorithm.

In this study, we set up an analytical method that can be used for rapid and accurate determination of representative isoquinoline alkaloids in medicinal plants using UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF MS (ultra pressure liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry). The compounds were eluted on a C18 column with 0.1 % formic acid and acetonitrile, and separated with good resolution within 13 min. Each of the separated components was characterized by precursor ions (generated by ESI-Q-TOF) and fragment ions (produced by collision-induced dissociation, CID), which were used as a reliable database. We also performed method validation: analytes showed excellent linearity ($R^2$, 0.9971-0.9996), LOD (5-25 ng/mL), LOQ (17-82 ng/mL), accuracy (91.6-97.4 %) as well as intra- and inter-day precisions (RSD, 1.8-3.2 %). In the analysis of Chelidonium majus L., magnoflorine, coptisine, sanguinarine, berberine and palmatine were detected by matching retention times and characteristic fragment ion patterns of reference standards. We also confirmed that, among the quantified components, coptisine was present in the highest quantity. Furthermore, alkaloid profiling was carried out by analyzing the fragment ion patterns corresponding to peaks of unknown components. In this manner, protopine, chelidonine, stylopine, dihydroberberine, canadine, and nitidine were tentatively identified. We also proposed the molecular structure of the fragment ions that appear in the mass spectrum. Therefore, we concluded that our suggested method for the determination of major isoquinoline alkaloids by UPLC-Q-TOF can be useful not only for quality control, but also for rapid and accurate investigation of phytochemical constituents of medicinal plants.

With the completely discovery of the Drosophila genome sequence, the next great challenge is to extract its biological information by systematic expression and to perform functional analysis of the gene. Here we reported a proteome analysis of D. melanogaster with two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MALDI-TOF-MS). The cell extracts of D. melanogaster, $200{\mu}g$ were resolved to more than 400 silver-stained spots by 2-DE. The most abundant protein spots were ranged from 4.0-7.5 of pI and from 15-90 kDa of molecular weight. The excised spots were destained and in-gel digested by trypsin. The masses of the resulting peptide mixtures were measured by MALDI-TOF-MS. Identified proteins were compared with measured peptide mass and a dynamic peptide searching database which is accessible via the internet. The results revealed that identified proteins were produced by 59 genes derived from 65 protein spots.
