This study was intended to evaluate the shielding rate of radiation shields manufactured using 3D printers that have recently been used in various fields by comparing them with existing shields made of lead, and to find out their applicability through experiments. A 3D printer shield made of tungsten filament 1 mm, 2 mm, 4 mm shield, RNS-TX (nanotungsten) 1.1 mm, lead 0.2 mmPb, and 1mmPb were exposed to ^99mTc, ¹⁸F, and ²⁰¹TI for 15, 30, 45 minutes, and 60 minutes after measuring cumulative dose three times. Based on this, the shielding rate of each shield was calculated based on the dose in the absence of the shield. In addition, ^99mTc, ¹⁸F, and ²⁰¹TI were located 100 cm away from the phantom in which the OSLD nano Dot device was inserted, and if there was no shield for 60 minutes, the dose of thyroid was measured using 1.0 mm of lead shield, 1.1 mm of RNS-TX shield, and 2 mm of tungsten shield made by 3D printer. The use of shields during radiation shielding emitted from open radiation sources all resulted in a reduction in dose. The radiation dose emitted from the radionuclides under the experiment was all reduced when the shield was used. This study has been confirmed that tungsten is a material that can replace lead due to its excellent performance and efficiency as shield, and that it even shows the possibility of manufacturing a customized shield using 3D printer.

In this study, the vertically well-aligned CNTs were synthesized by DC bias-assisted inductively coupled plasma hot-filament chemical vapor deposition (ICPHFCVD) using radio-frequence plasma of high density and that CNTs were vertically grown on Ni(300 )/Cr(200 )-deposited glass substrates at 58$0^{\circ}C$. This system(ICPHFCVD) added to tungsten filament in order to get thermal decompound and DC bias in order to vertically grow to general Inductively Coupled Plasma CVD. The grown CNTs by ICPHFCVD were developed to higher graphitization and fewer field emission properties than those by general ICPCVD. In this system, DC bias was effect of vortical alignment to growing CNTs. The measured turn-on fields of field emission property by general ICPCVD and DC bias-assisted ICPHFCVD were 5 V/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 3 V/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, respectively.

본 연구에서는 야외 방사선투과검사 시 방사선작업종사자의 맞춤형 차폐체 제작을 위해 3D 프린터 필라멘트의 재질 및 두께에 대한 차폐 분석을 수행하였다. MCNPX를 이용한 모의 모사를 통해 복셀 선원 $^{192}Ir$, $^{75}Se$를 선택 후 ICRU Slab Phantom에 차폐체를 부착하고, 선원과 Slab Phantom의 거리를 100 cm으로 설정하였다. 12 개의 차폐물질에 대하여 차폐물질이 없는 경우부터 200 mm 까지 5 mm 단위로 나누어 각 차폐물질별 단위 질량 당 흡수되는 에너지를 평가하였다. 그 결과 모든 방사선투과검사용 감마선원에서 ABS + Tungsten, ABS + Bismuth, PLA + Copper, PLA + Iron 순으로 차폐 효과가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 납에 비해서는 다소 낮은 차폐 효과를 보였다. 향후 본 연구를 토대로 원자번호와 밀도가 높은 필라멘트 재료에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Quadrupole Mass Spectrometers (QMS) is a very useful tool in vacuum process diagnosis. Tungsten filament based ion sources are vulnerable to contamination from process gas monitoring. Common symptoms of quadrupole mass spectrometer malfunction is appearance of unwanted contaminant mass peaks or no detection of any ion peaks. We disassembled used quadrupole mass spectrometer and found out black insulating deposits on inside of ion source parts. Five steps of cleaning procedure were applied and almost full restoration of functions were confirmed in two types of closed ion source quadrupole mass spectrometer. By using a numerical modeling (CFD-ACE+) technique, the electric potential profile of ion source with/without insulating deposit was calculated and showed the possibility of quadrupole mass spectrometer malfunction by the deterioration of designed potential profile inside the ion source.

The effect of gas activation on the formation of SiC layer on Si substrate using methane as a carbon source was investigated. Tungsten filaments, heated above 200$0^{\circ}C$, were used to activate the methane-hydrogen mixed gas. The dissociation of methane gas by the heated filament was enough to form a SiC layer successfully, which was very difficult without any activation. The SiC layer formed on the Si substrate was crystalline and nearly epitaxial as measured by X-ray diffraction. The SiC layer formed on the Si substrate was crystalline and nearly epitaxial as measured by X-ray diffraction. The stoichiometry was also close to 1:1. However, the characteristic of the SiC layer was dependent on the heat-treatment condition. The general behavior of the layer growth with the variables was discussed.

A field emission projection microscope was constructed to investigate the atomic and chemical-bonding structure of molecules using electron in-line holography. Fringes of carbon nanotube images were found to be interferograms equivalent to those created by the electron biprism in conventional electron microscopy. By exploiting carbon nanotubes as the filament of the electron biprism, we measured the transverse coherence length of the electron beam from tungsten field emitters. The measurements revealed that a partially coherent electron-beam was emitted from a finite area.

This paper shows the characteristics of microwaves in a plasma medium bounded by a waveguide. A standing wave detector which has VSWR less than 1.05 is designed and constructed. The electromagnetic waves which propagate through the plasma is reflected partly by the interaction between the external magnetic fields and plasma. The plasma is consisted of the electrons and positive ions ionized by high temperature of tungsten filament inserted in the waveguide. The transmitted power through the plasma was reduced by the amount of 1.5db from the reference.

방사선 치료는 고에너지 X선을 최소 20 Gy에서 80 Gy까지 다양하게 조사되기 때문에 종양이 위치하는 국소부위에 고선량을 투여하며 일부 정상조직의 여러 부작용이 예상 된다. 현재 임상에서는 정상조직의 차폐를 위한 노력으로 대표적인 재료인 납을 사용하고 있지만 납은 인체에 유해한 중금속으로 분류되고 있으며 다량의 피부접촉은 중독을 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 FDM(Fused Deposition Modeling)방식의 3차원 프린터의 재료 Tungsten, Brass, Copper을 이용하여 납의 한계점을 보완 할 수 있는 측정시트를 제작하고 투과성능을 알아보고자 한다. 3D 프린터를 이용해 Tungsten 혼합 필라멘트 투과측정 시트 크기는 70 × 70 mm, 두께는 1, 2, 4 mm로 제작하였으며 제작한 측정시트의 투과성능을 확인하기 위해 선형가속기 (TrueBeam STx, S/N: 1187)에서 발생된 6, 15 MV을 Water Phantom과 Ion chamber (FC-65G), elcetrometer (PTW UNIDOSE)을 사용하여 SSD 100 cm, 물 속 5 cm에서 100 MU를 조사하여 측정하고 투과성능을 평가하였다. 각 소재의 측정시트를 1 mm씩 증가시킨 결과 6 MV에서는 Tungsten 시트의 경우 3.8~3.9 cm일때의 시트는 기존 납의 차폐체 두께 6.5 cm 보다 얇으며, 15 MV에서는 Tungsten 시트의 경우 4.5~4.6 cm일 때 시트는 기존 납의 차폐체 두께 7 cm 보다 얇으며 동등한 성능을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 Tungsten 합금 필라멘트을 이용하여 제작한 투과측정 시트는 고에너지 영역에서의 투과 차폐 가능성을 확인하였으며. 대체품으로써의 사용가능성 또한 우수함을 확인하였다, 향후 3D 프린팅 기술로 차폐제 제작을 위한 기초자료로 제공할 수 있을 것으로 사료 된다.
