Objectives: This study was conducted to improve dental health regarding behavior and understanding of dental health of day care teachers by analyzing actual dental health state. Methods: This study was performed from October 1 to October 30, 2008 for 194 teachers who worked at nurseries in Daegu. Results: In the toothbrushing recognition, 42.3% of the said that tooth brushing after eating is necessary but only 26.3% had the children bush teeth. They did not have the children brush the teeth because they did not have enough time. Many teachers (75.3%) said that dental caries could be prevented. But only 4.1% of them said that fluorine is effective for the prevention of dental caries. The preschool teachers had dental health education experience, better understood the importance of dental health education than those who did not have(p < 0.05). Conclusion: The preschool teachers who had dental health education better recognized the importance of dental health education.

The extremely metal-poor halo planetary nebula BoBn 1 has been investigated based on IUE archive data, Subaru/HDS spectra, VLT/UVES archive data, and Spitzer/IRS spectra. We have measured a heliocentric radial velocity of $+191.6\pm1.3\;kms^{-1}$ and expansion velocity 2Vexp of $40.5\pm3.3\;kms^{-1}$ from an average over 300 lines. The estimations of C, N, O, and Ne abundances from the optical recombination lines (ORLs) and Kr, Xe, and Ba from the collisional excitation lines (CELs) are also done. We have detected 5 fluorine and several slow neutron capture elements (the s-process). The amounts of [F/H], [Kr/H], and [Xe/H] suggest that BoBn 1 is the most F-rich among F detected PNe and is a heavy s-process element rich PN. The photo-ionization models built with non-LTE theoretical stellar atmospheres indicate that the progenitor was a 1-1.5 $M_\bigstar$ that would evolve into a white dwarf with an $0.62M_{\odot}$ core mass and $0.09M_{\odot}$ ionized nebula. Careful examination implies that BoBn 1 has evolved from a binary and experienced coalescence during the evolution to become a visible PN. The elemental abundances except N could be explained by a binary model composed of $0.75M_{\odot}+1.5M_{\odot}$ stars.

Clinical application of positron emission tomography (PET) is rapidly increasing for the detection and staging of cancer at whole-body studies performed with the glucose analogue tracer 2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG). Although FDG PET cannot match the anatomic resolution of conventional imaging techniques in gastrointestinal and abdominal organs, it is particularly useful for identification and characterization of whole body at the same time. FDG PET can show foci of metastatic disease that may not be apparent at conventional anatomic imaging and can aid in the characterization of indeterminate soft-tissue masses. Most gastrointestinal cancer need to surgical management. FDG PET can improve the selection of patients for surgical treatment and thereby reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with inappropriate surgery. FDG PET is also useful for the early detection of recurrence and the monitoring of therapeutic effect. The gastrointestinal cancers, such as gastroesophageal cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer and pancreatic cancer, are common malignancies in Korea. PET is one of the most promising and useful methodology for the management of gastric cancer as well as other gastrointestinal cancers.

자화된 유도결합형 C4F8 플라즈마로 SiO2를 건식식각시 실리콘 표면에 발생하는 손상과 오염에 대하여 연구하였다. 오염의 분석을 위해서 XPS, SIMS, TEM을 사용하였으며, 손상정도를 측정하기 위해서 HRTEM과 Schottky-diode 구성을 통한 I-V특성 측정을 사용하였다. 유도 결합형 C4F8 플라스마에 0에서 18Gauss까지의 자장이 가해짐에 따라서 실리콘 표면에 생기는 잔류막의 두께가 SiO2식각속도와 선택비의 증가와 함께 증가하였으며, XPS를 통하여 그 조성이 fluorine-rich에서 carbon-rich 한 상태로 변화함을 알 수 있었다. 자장을 가하지 않는 상태에서는 표면에서 $40\AA$부근까지 고밀도의 손상층이 관찰되었으나, 자장을 가함에 따라서 노출된 손상층의 깊이는 깊어지나 그 밀도는 줄어들음을 HRTEM을 통하여 관찰 할 수 있었다. Schottky-diode를 통한 I-V특성곡선의 분석으로 자장이 증가함에 따라서 전기적인 손상이 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

We have studied dielectric properties in the smectic phases of 4-(6-ethoxy-1-trifluoromethyl-hexyloxycarbonyl)-phenyl-4-Nonyloxybiphenyl-4-carboxylat ( TFMEOHPNBC ) having fluorine attached to one of its benzene rings. Homogeneous and homeotropic 1.5 and 5${\mu}m$ thick test cells were prepared to analyze molecular dynamic property. We measured capacitance as a function of temperature in the frequency range between 20 Hz and 100 kHz by using HP4284A LCR meter. We observed that the homogeneous cell has high dielectric constant causing dipole moment in smectic $C^{\ast}$ phase, but we can see the dipole moments are canceled out in antiferroelectric phase. It is found that there are two kind of the relaxation director fluctuation below 100 kHz. The first is ionic or space charge contribution below 10 Hz, and the second is Goldstone mode near 1-2 kHz. We will discuss molecular dynamics in smectic phase from extra information such as x-ray and electrooptic data.

We have studied electro-optic properties and layer deformations in the smectic phases of 4-(6ethoxy-l-trifluoromethyl-hexyloxycarbonyl)-phenyl-4-Nonyloxybiphenyl-4-carboxylat ( TFMEOHPNBC ) having fluorine attached to one of its benzene rings by electro-optical and small angle x-ray scattering techniques. 3 and 5${\mu}m$ thick test cells were prepared using beryllium plates to minimize x-ray beam absorption. Layer structure and orientation was studied while changing the amplitude and frequency of the applied electric field as a function of cell temperature. We observed that the chevron layer tilt angle is reduced and layer spacing is increased as stabilizing in antiferroelectric phase. This result is extraordinary that there is dimerization in antiferroelectric phase. We also found that there is a threshold electric field that changes the chevron structure to bookshelf structure. This threshold electric field depends on the frequency and temperature as shown in Fig.1. We will discuss the dynamics of layer orientation as determined from the x-ray, electro-optic and dielectric spectroscopy.

The polymer membrane of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) has a great influence on PEMFC performance and durability. In this study, hydrogen permeability, fluorine emission rate (FER), lifetime, and performance of Nafion membranes with different thicknesses were measured to investigate the effect of thickness of polymer membrane on performance and durability. The relationship between membrane thickness and lifetime was obtained from the relationships between hydrogen permeability and membrane thickness, hydrogen permeability and FER, FER and lifetime. As the membrane became thicker, the hydrogen permeability and FER decreased and the lifetime increased. On the other hand, the performance decreased with increasing membrane resistance. The membrane thickness range satisfying both performance and durability was 25 to $28{\mu}m$.

Polyimide(PI) films have been considered as the interlayer dielectric materials due to low dielectric constant, low water absorption, high gap-fill and planarization capability. The PI mm Was etched with using inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The etching characteristics such as etch rate and selectivity were evaluated to gas mixing ratio. High etch rate was $8300{\AA}/min$ and vertical profile was approximately acquired $90^{\circ}$ at $CF_{4}/(CF_{4}+O_{2})$ of 0.2. The selectivies of polyimide to PR and $SiO_{2}$ were 1.2, 5.9, respectively. The etching profiles of PI films with an aluminum pattern were measured by a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The chemical states on the PI film surface were investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Radical densities of oxygen and fluorine in different gas mixing ratio of $O_{2}/CF_{4}$ were investigated by optical emission spectrometer (OES).

Radical and ion densities in a CF4 plasma have been calculated as a function of input power density. 9as pressure and feed gas flow rate using simple 0 dimensional global model. Fluorine atom is found to be the most abundant neutral particle. Highly fragmented species such as CF and CF+ become dominant neutral and ionic radical at the high power condition. As the pressure increases. ion density increases but ionization rate decreases due to the decrease in electron temperature. The fractional dissociation of CF4 feed gas decreases with pressure after increasing at the low pressure range. Electron density and temperature are almost independent of flow rate within calculation conditions studied. The fractional dissociation of CF4 monotonically decreases with flow rate. which results in increase in CF3 and decrease in CF density. The calculation results show that the SiO2 etch selectivity improvement correlates to the increase in the relative density of fluorocarbon ion and neutral radicals which has high C/F ratio.

Total Fluorine content in the precursor solution for MOD processing of YBCO coated conductors can be significantly reduced by synthesizing precursor solution with F-free Y & Cu precursor and Barium trifluoroacetate(TFA). It was shown that crack-free and uniform precursor films were formed after calcinations in humidified oxygen atmosphere. Less than 2 hours are required to finish the calcination process, and XRD measurement shows that $BaF_2,\;CuO,\;and\;Y_2O_3$ are major constituent of calcined precursor films. Film thickness after calcination was measured to be ${\sim}2.8$ um by applying slot-die coating method. In particular, addition of Samarium shows critical current of Ic=226 A/cm-w($Jc=3.4\;MA/cm^2$). Also discussed are recent developments in the reel-to-reel processing using F-free Y & Cu precursor solutions. It is shown that uniform and fast processing route to YBCO coated conductor with high Ic can be provided by employing F-free Y & Cu precursor solutions in MOD process.
