Dried Rehmannia Radix Preparat, produced in different geographic origins of Korea and China, were investigated for the trace element contents using X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. When the estimated data for 35 kind of elements including K, P, S, Cl, Si, Al, Fe, Sn, etc on 143 samples were analyzed by canonical discrimination technique, the average classification correct rate was 92.3% and the significance was less than 0.0001. In case of reducing the number of elements for statistic analysis from 35 to 8 and to 3, the correct rates were also reduced to 88.1% and to 84.6%. The correct rate for Chinese samples ranged from 94.6-96.0%, while those for Korean ranged from 72.5-89.9%.

Novel long persistent phosphors of $CaZrO_3:Er^{3+}$ have been synthesized by traditional solid state reaction method. The long persistent phosphor crystalline particles were characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence spectrophotometer, thermoluminescence (TL) and luminance meter. The results reveal that the samples are composed of single $CaZrO_3$ phase. The broadband emission spectra of 446 nm peak and 550 nm peak was revealed by synthesized at high temperature in $N_2$ gas. Green long persistent phosphors have been observed in the sys_em for over 6 h after UV irradiation (254 nm). The main emission peak was ascribed to $Er^{3+}$ ions transition from $^5D_{5/2}{\rightarrow}^4F_{9/2},\;^2H_{12/2},\;^4S_{3/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{13/2}\;and\;^2G_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{13/2}$, and the afterglow may be ascribed to the suitable trap centers in the $CaZrO_3$ host lattice.

-ray fluorescence analysis of $Ta_2O_5$, $Nb_2O_5$ and $ZrO_2$ in tin-slag samples using the simple dilution method was studied. The method is to correct mathematically the calibration curve to the linear line by the dilution. One synthesized standard having similar composition to the sample and tin slag samples were diluted with anhydrous $Li_2B_4O_7$ at the level of 1%, 2% and 3% of the sample content respectively. The diluted samples were fused at $1150^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes and these glass beads were finely ground and pelletized. Measuring the X-ray intensities with these pellets, analytical results were calculated by the equation derived from J. Scherman's equation for the characteristic X-ray intensity of an element. Analytical results agreed with the reference values obtained by the standard calibration method within allowable error range and were reproducible.

Principles of Radiation Detection and measurement include luminescence, ionization and chemical reactions. In this study, thermoluminescent properties were analyzed by exposure radiation on the glass for protective glass of smart phone. In order to analyze the thermoluminescent characteristics by radiation, 6 MV X-ray 100 cGy was irradiated to the powder annealing at 300 ℃ by grinding the tempered glass and original tempered glass. As a result of measuring the amount of thermoluminescent respectively irradiated material, the thermoluminescent increased by 3 times in the tempered glass, and when the tempered glass was grinding by powder the thermoluminescent was 2.4 times increased. Based on these results, the liquid crystal protective glass of the smart phone is evaluated as a tracer material to evaluate the radiation exposure and dose of the personal radiation monitoring.

A simple and direct method is developed for the determination of light Elements in atmospheric particulates by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. Calibration standards for the light elements such as Al, Mg, K, Ca, etc are prepared by filtering real atmospheric particulates over variable time and subsequently standardizing them by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry(ICP-MS) or Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry(AAS) analysis. The validity of this calibration method is tested by analyzing more than 100 aerosol samples, collected at urban(Seoul) and rural(Padori) sites over a two year period with this method and then comparing them with those by other accuracy proven methods such as AAS or ICP-MS: for all metals tested the results showed reasonably good agreements (R $\geq$ 0.95).

Fire-resistance paints are supposed to become intumescent and diminish heat transfer along the steel frames in case of a fire. If unsatisfactory fire-resistance paints which do not satisfy their standard specification are used, it may result in a severe disaster. Because satisfactory fire-resistance paints are hardly discriminated from the unsatisfactory ones by a simple visual inspection, more reliable and convenient onsite evaluation methods are necessary. Here we report the preliminary study result on the fire safety testing method for fire-resistance paints using an X-ray analysis method. It was found that the existence and quantity of effective constituents in fire-resistance paints can be detected by the X-ray analysis method. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyses showed that P and Cl elements are much more enriched in fire-resistance paints, compared to normal paints. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses showed that ammonium polyphosphate is present as the main crystalline material in fire-resistance paints, but absent in normal paints. The X-ray analysis method is expected to be used for the onsite inspection of fire-resistance paints with the upcoming availability of portable XRF and XRD instruments.

X-ray or ${\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy systems are widely used for analyzing material characteristics. Pile-up pulses are very often encountered for several reasons in XRF systems. Thus, it is necessary to reject or recover pile-up pulses to accurately analyze the material under test. In this paper, a pile up pulse rejection and recovery method is presented for XRF systems using trapezoidal pulse shaping of the input signals. Since the proposed method is based on the trapezoidal pulse shaping method widely-used in XRF systems, only two counters and a few registers are needed to implement the additional function of pile-up pulse rejection and recovery. Consequently, the proposed system is much simpler than conventional pulse reconstruction systems. It is shown that the proposed method can detect and reject pile-up pulses exactly. It is also shown that the pile-up pulses can be recovered if some conditions are satisfied.
