A polymeric host for triplet emitters composed of N-alkylcarbazole and tetramethylbenzene units was successfully synthesized. Efficient energy transfer was observed between this polymeric host and green phosphorescent dyes. The device fabricated using 5 wt% green 1 in the polymeric host as the emitting layer showed the best performance. Thin films of this host-guest system, exhibiting clear stripe patterns could be prepared through the LITI process. The patterned films were then used to fabricate electrophosphorescent devices, which show performance characteristics similar to those of spin-coated devices. The new host material is a good candidate to be used in polymer-based full-color electrophosphorescent light-emitting displays.

Today, much terminologies such as noise spectrum, Sharpness, contrast, MTF had been defined for Image quality revaluation of radiation Image. Since development of Xeroradiography In the 1970s, Digital radiation detector that use amorphous selenium was developed. The aim of this research is to analyze physical phenomenon of digital radiation detector that use amorphous selenium. Result of Monte Carlo simulations on amorphous selenium based on physical properties(creation of electron-hole pairs) by induced x-ray are described. From the simulation, intrinsic point spread function(PSF) was found and used to observe modulation transfer function(MTF). We investigated how PSF and MTF changed with various x-ray energy. This result can be used to design digital x-ray detector based on a-Se.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiopacities of various types of restorative materials with different thicknesses compared with enamel, dentin, and aluminum. Materials and Methods: Four bulk-fill resins, 2 hybrid ceramics, 2 micro-hybrid resin composites, 6 glass ionomer-based materials, 2 zinc phosphate cements, and an amalgam were used in the study. Twelve disk-shaped specimens were prepared from each of 17 restorative materials with thicknesses of 1 mm, 2 mm, and 4 mm (n=4). All the restorative material specimens with the same thickness, an aluminum (Al) step wedge, and enamel and dentin specimens were positioned on a phosphor storage plate and exposed using a dental X-ray unit. The mean gray values were measured on digital images and converted to equivalent Al thicknesses. Statistical analyses were performed using 2-way analysis of variance and the Bonferroni post hoc test(P<0.05). Results: Radiopacity was significantly affected by both the thickness and the material type (P<0.05). GCP Glass Fill had the lowest radiopacity value for samples of 1 mm thickness, while Vita Enamic had the lowest radiopacity value for 2-mm-thick and 4-mm-thick samples. The materials with the highest radiopacity values after the amalgam were zinc phosphate cements. Conclusion: Significant differences were observed in the radiopacities of restorative materials with different thicknesses. Radiopacity was affected by both the material type and thickness.

물질의 X-선 흡수도에 의해 영상을 얻는 일반 X-선 시스템과 달리 방사광 X-선은 위상이 일치하고 평행하며 진동방향이 일치하는 특성들을 이용하면 고 분해능, 고 대조도의 투사영상을 얻을 수 있다. 국내에서는 포항 방사광 가속기 연구소에 최근 건설된 5C1 빔라인에 미세구조 X-선 영상 획득을 위한 영상시스템을 구축하여 여러 기초 생물, 의학연구분야의 고 분해능 영상획득이 가능하게 되었다. 방사광 X-선을 이용하여 얻은 고 해상도 투사영상들 및 단층 재구성 영상들을 일반 X-선을 사용하는 유방찰영시스템, 치아 X-선 찰영시스템, 전신측정용 CT 시스템에서 각각 획득한 동일한 대상의 영상들과 비교하였다. 실험에 사용한 방사광 X-선은 6 ～30 keV 사이의 연속적인 에너지 분포를 가지며, 실험의 대상에 따라서 실리콘웨이퍼 필터들을 사용하여 빔의 세기와 에너지 스펙트럼 분포를 조절하여 사용하였다. 실험 대상 물체를 통과한 방사광 X-선의 투사영상은 형광판 (CdWO$_4$ scintillator)과 반응하여 가시광선으로 바뀐 후, 금도금된 거울을 통해 90$^{\circ}$ 반사되어 CCD 카메라로 획득하며, 이러한 디지털 영상정보는 PC로 전송되어 저장된다. 방사광 X-선의 공간 분해능 특성은 X-선 시험패턴(25 $\mu$m)과 초 고해상도 패턴 (13.5 $\mu$m)을 방사광 X-선 영상획득시스템 과 일반 X-선을 사용하는 유방촬영시스템에서 획득하여 분석하였다. 영상획득 실험대상으로는 일반 구조물로 커패시터, 생체조직으로 성인치아, 유아치아, 생쥐 척추뼈 및 유방암조직을 대상으로 실험하였다. 단층영상은 각각의 샘플을 0.72$^{\circ}$ 간격으로 180$^{\circ}$ 회전시켜 250개의 투과영상들로부터 재구성한 후 컴퓨터 단층촬영기에서 얻은 영상과 비교하였다. 포항 방사광가속기연구소 5C1 빔라인에 간단하고, 경제적인 방사광 X-선 영상획득시스템을 성공적으로 구축할 수 있었고, 획득한 투사 영상과 재구성한 단층영상을 기존 X-선을 사용한 시스템으로 획득한 단층영상들과 분해능, 대조도의 특성들을 비교, 분석하였다. 방사광 X-선을 사용하여 획득한 영상들은 일반 시스템에서 얻은 영상보다 고 해상도의 영상 질을 보여주었고, 기초 의학영상 연구 측면에서 많은 정보를 제공해 주었다. 방사광 X-선을 이용한 영상획득시스템은 고 분해능과 고 대조도로 미세구조의 상세한 의학영상을 얻기 위한 유용한 방법으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 향후 해부학적, 병리학적 및 임상학적 의료영상 분야에 효과적으로 응용하기 위하여 X-선 선량 정량 분석과 수치적 영상 해석연구가 계속되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is increasingly used throughout the facility's life cycle for various applications, such as design, construction, facility management, and maintenance. For existing buildings, the geometry of as-built BIM is often constructed using dense, three dimensional (3D) point clouds data obtained with laser scanners. Traditionally, as-built BIM systems do not contain the material and textural information of the buildings' elements. This paper presents a semi-automatic method for generation of material and texture rich as-built BIM. The method captures and integrates material and textural information of building elements into as-built BIM using thermal infrared sensing (TIS). The proposed method uses TIS to capture thermal images of the interior walls of an existing building. These images are then processed to extract the interior walls using a segmentation algorithm. The digital numbers in the resulted images are then transformed into radiance values that represent the emitted thermal infrared radiation. Machine learning techniques are then applied to build a correlation between the radiance values and the material type in each image. The radiance values were used to extract textural information from the images. The extracted textural and material information are then robustly integrated into the as-built BIM providing the data needed for the assessment of building conditions in general including energy efficiency, among others.

Purpose: To determine the proper reference step wedge for digital Cu-Equivalent Image analyzing systems for measurement of bone density. Meterials and Methods : Radiograms of lumbar vertebrae phantom (1g/㎠) with 3 test copper step wedges of 0.03, 0.05 and, 0.1 mm thickness unit were taken and analyzed using NIH image software on a Macintosh personal computer. Measured densities of the lumbar areas in the Cu-Equivalent images made by utilizing 3 different copper stepwedges were compared with a known bone density. Results: The values of r2 for all copper equivalent images were over 0.99. The mean Cu-Eq value of lumbar in copper equivalent image made by a 0.1 mm copper stepwedge was 0.22 ± 0.06 mm and converted to hydroxyapatite density of 1.03 g/㎠. The stepwedges of 0.03 and 0.05 mm produced results having higher values than the actual known bone density. They did not show the blue and green color level that appeared in lumbar on color enhanced image. Conclusion : A copper stepwedge of adequate thickness and range of steps which can express the range of density of bone being measured should be used.

The aim of this general remarks is to introduce the results concerning the thermo physical, charging, developing and fusing characteristics of micro-encapsulated (MC) model toners in order to apply to the toner of electrophotographic system at the condition of a low temperature. In order to clarify the fusing mechanism of MC toner, rheological analysis of the toner was chosen. It was suggested that MC toner had a different fusing mechanism compared with non-MC toner. Some kinds of MC model toners showed a good result on adhesion test as well as cohesion test. Also, it was possible to get the good charging and development characteristic of MC toner for printing test with laser printer.

[ $Y_2O_3:Eu$ ] powder was synthesized using a solution-combustion method by dissolving $(CH_3CO_2)_3Y$ and $(CH_3CO_2)_3$ Eu in methyl-alcohol solution. Results from X-ray diffractometery (XRD), thermogravimetry (TG)-differential thermal analysis (DTA) show that $Y_2O_3:Eu$ crystallizes completely when the dry powder is sintered at $500^{\circ}C$. The investigated optical properties were the photoluminescence emission spectra, the excitation spectra and luminescence decay curve. Europium (Eu) concentration had no observable effect on the optical spectrum which depended on the emission intensity. The mean lifetime of synthesized phosphors was $2.3\~2.6 ms$.

In this paper, the epipolar geometry, genera17y used as a pin-hole camera model, is newly adapted to our proposed method that enables the affine reconstruction of the 3D object from two projected views. The proposed method models the projective projection of inherent X-ray imaging system, obviates the need to attach artifirially constructed material on the body, and requires none of the prior-knowledge regarding to intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of two X-ray imaging systems. The optimum numerical solution is obtained by applying the least mean square estimator to corresponding points on two projected X-ray planes. The performance of this proposed method is Quantitatively analyzed using computer synthesized model of Cochlear implantation electrodes. In simulated experiments, the propnsed method is insensitive to the added random noise, the scaling factor change, the center point change, and rotational angular change between two projection planes, as well as enables the stable 3D reconstruction in least square sense even in worst testing cases.

The development of digital x-ray detector has been extensively progressed for the application of various medical modalities. In this study, we introduce a new hybrid-type x-ray detector to improve problems of a conventional direct or indirect digital x-ray image technology, which composed of multi-layer structure using a CaWO$_4$ phosphor and amorphous selenium (a-Se) photoconductor. The leakage current of our detector was found to be ∼180 pA/cm$^2$ at 10 V/m, which was significantly reduced than that of a single a-Se detector. The x-ray sensitivity was measured as the value of 4230 pC/cm$^2$/mR at 10 V/m. We found that the parylene thin film between a CaWO$_4$ phosphor and an a-Se layer acts as an insulator to prevent charge injection from indium thin oxide (ITO) electrode into an a-Se layer under applied bias.
