Neutron conversion detectors that use ¹⁰B-enriched boron carbide are feasible alternatives to ³He-based detectors. We prepared boron carbide films at micron-scale thickness using direct-current magnetron sputtering. The structural characteristics of natural B₄C films, including density, roughness, crystallization, and purity, were analyzed using grazing incidence X-ray reflectivity, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry, and scanning electron microscopy. A beam profile test was conducted to verify the practicality of the ¹⁰B-enriched B₄C neutron conversion layer. A clear profile indicated the high quality of the neutron conversion of the boron carbide layer.

The ambient $PM_{2.5}$ samples were collected by $PM_{2.5}$ sampler from September 2010 to December 2012 at Daegu University, Gyeongsan. A total of 260 samples were collected and 27 species were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma, ion chromatography, and thermal optical reflectance methods. Factor analysis identified four sources such as biomass burning source/secondary aerosol source, soil source, industry source, and incinerator source/mobile source. Also, backward trajectories were calculated using HYSPLIT 4 (Hybrid single-particle lagrangian integrated trajectory) model and PSCF (Potential source contribution function) model was applied to identify the possible source locations of carbonaceous species and water soluble ions species. PSCF results showed that the possible source locations of most chemical constituents measured in Gyeongsan were the industrial areas in the eastern coast of China, northeast regions of China, the Gobi Desert, and east sea of Korea.

Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) and wet etching are employed in existing texturing processes to fabricate solar cells. Laser etching is used for particular purposes such as selective etching for grooves. However, such processes require a higher level of cost and longer processing time and those factors affect the unit cost of each process of fabricating solar cells. As a way to reduce the unit cost of this process of making solar cells, an atmospheric plasma source will be employed in this study for the texturing of crystalline silicon wafers. In this study, we produced the atmospheric plasma source and examined its basic properties. Then, using the prepared atmospheric plasma source, we performed the texturing process of crystalline silicon wafers. The results obtained from texturing processes employing the atmospheric plasma source and employing RIE were examined and compared with each other. The average reflectance of the specimens obtained from the atmospheric plasma texturing process was 7.88 %, while that of specimens obtained from the texturing process employing RIE was 8.04 %. Surface morphologies of textured wafers were examined and measured through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and similar shapes of reactive ion etched wafers were found. The Power Conversion Efficiencies (PCE) of the solar cells manufactured through each process were 16.97 % (atmospheric plasma texturing) and 16.29 % (RIE texturing).

The wetting property of polymer surfaces is very important for practical applications. Plasma source ion implantation technique was used to improve the wetting properties of polymer surfaces. Poly(ethylene terephtalate) and other polymer sheets were mounted on the target stage and an RF plasma was generated by means of an antenna located inside the vacuum chamber. High voltage pulses of up to -10kV, 10 $\mu$sec, and up to 1 kHz were applied to the stage. The samples were implanted for 5 minutes with using Ar, $N_2,O_2,CH_4,CF_4$ and their mixture as source gases. A contact angle meter was used to measure the water contact angles of the implanted samples and of the samples stored in ambient conditions after implantation. The modified surfaces were analysed with Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometer (TOF-SIMS) and Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). The oxygen-implanted samples showed extremely low water contact angles of $3^{\circ}C$ compared to $79^{\circ}C$ of unimplanted ones. Furthermore, the modified surfaces were relatively stable with respect to aging in ambient conditions, which is one of the major concerns of the other surface treatment techniques. From TOF-SIMS analysis it was found that oxygen-containing functional groups had been formed on the implanted surfaces. On the other hand, the $CF_4$-implanted samples turned out to be more hydro-phobic than unimplanted ones, giving water contact angles exceeding $100^{\circ}C$ . The experiment showed that plasma source ion implantation is a very promising technique for polymer surface modification especially for large area treatment.

It was observed that the time-dependent sheath which was formed around the planar target biased by negatively voltage pulse with a finite rise time in the plasma source ion implantation. F\Results show that the time-dependent sheath consisted of two parts: the ion matrix sheath development during the pulse rise time and the dynamic sheath motion after attaining the full pulse. The ion matrix sheath development which is in proportion to square root of the pulse time and the pulse rise rate over the plasma density but independent of the ion mass. The dynamic sheath propagates with approximately the ion sound speed.

In recent years, the rapid growth of portable electronic device market requires higher density characteristics of batteries. The speed at which portability and mobility is advancing hinges much on the battery. What is important is this energy source that engineers design handled devices around the battery, rather than the other way around. Much improvement has been made in reducing the power consumption of portable devices. Currently, the most popular secondary battery is Li-ion battery. Li-ion has won the limelight and become the most prominent battery. This paper reviews the prospect and future of the Li-ion battery.

필드이온빔(FIB) 가공기를 써서 초고강도의 벌크다이아몬드를 가공하기 위해 이온 소오스의 종류와 가공 조건에 따른 나노급 미세 선폭의 최적조건을 알아보고 이에 근거한 2차원적인 텍스트의 가공과 3차원적인 박막요소의 가공을 시도하였다. 다이아몬드 기판과 실리콘 기판을 Ga과 $H_2O$ 소오스를 이용하는 FIB를 써서 30 kV 빔 전류를 10 pA $\sim$ 5 nA로 변화시키면서 패터닝하고 이때 각각 20 ${\mu}m$ 길이로 생성되는 선형 패턴의 선폭, 깊이, 에치속도, 에치형상, 깊이선폭비 (aspect ratio)를 확인하였다. 다이아몬드도 실리콘 기판과 마찬가지로 나노급 패턴의 형성이 가능하였다. $H_2O$ 소오스를 채용한 경우가 에치 깊이가 2배 정도 증가하였으며 동일한 가공 조건에서는 실리콘에 비해 다이아몬드의 에치 선폭이 감소는 경향이 있었다. 특히 다이아몬드는 절연성 때문에 차지가 축적되어 가공 중 이온빔이 불안정해지는 문제가 있었으나 차지 중화 모드를 이용하여 성공적으로 sub-100 nm급 선폭의 미세 가공이 가능하였다. 확인된 선폭가공 조건에 근거하여 2차원적으로 0.3carat의 보석용 다이아몬드의 거들부에 300여개의 글자를 FIB를 활용하여 선폭 240 nm정도로 명확히 기록하는 것이 가능하였다. $Ga^+$이온과 30 eV-30 pA로 조건에서 비교적 넓은 선폭과 Z축 depth 고정범위에서 많은 개인정보의 기록이 영구적으로 가능하였으며 전자현미경으로 재생이 가능하였다. 3차원적으로 두께 $1{\mu}m$의 박막요소를 FIB가공과 백금 용접으로 떼어낸 후 FIB가공으로 두께가 100 nm가 되도록 한 후 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 성분 분석을 하는 것이 성공적으로 수행될 수 있었다.

열에 불안정하면서 -OH기를 함유하는 미지의 화합물은 LC/TSP/MS에서 [${MNH_4}^+$] 이온, [$MH^+$] 이온, 그리고 [$MH^+-OH$] 이온의 생성이 가능하며, 이들 이온의 m/z값의 차이가 17로서 같기 때문에 이들의 생성 정도에 따라 분자량 추정에 혼란이 일어날 수가 있었다. 따라서 다른 보완 가능한 실험결과가 요구되며 $CF_3COOD+NH_4OH$ 이온화 용액을 사용하여 그 유용성을 검토하였다. 또한 LC/TSP/MS에서 생성되는 토막이온들이 필라멘트의 전자살에 의해 생성되는 것인지 아니면 다른 어떤 생성기전이 존재하는지를 검토하였다.
