The conduction mechanisms of the off-current in low temperature (.leq. >$600^{\circ}C$) processed polycrystalline silicon thin film transistors (LTP poly-Si TFT'S) have been systematically studied. Especially, the temperature and bias dependence of the off-current between hydrogenated and nonhydrogenated poly-Si TFT's were investigated and compared. The off-current of nonhydrogenated poly-Si TF's is because of a resistive current at low gate and drain voltage, thermally activated current at high gate and low drain voltage, and Poole-Frenkel emission current in the depletion region near the drain at high gate and drain voltage. After hydrogenation it has shown that the off -current mechanism is caused mainly by thermal activation and that the field-induced current component is suppressed.

We present results of our R-band polarimetry of a bright-rimmed cloud, IC1396A (with BRC 36), associated with the H II region S131 and the cometary globule LDN 1616 to study their magnetic field geometry. The distances of these clouds have been reported to be ~ 750 pc and ~ 450 pc, respectively in the literature. The young open cluster Trumpler 37 in the vicinity of IC1396A and the high mass stars in the Orion belt near L1616 are found to be responsible for the structure of these clouds. We made polarimetry of foreground stars inferred from their distances measured by the Hipparcos satellite to subtract the foreground contribution to the observed polarization results. We discuss the optical polarimetric results and compare our findings with MHD simulations towards BRCs and CGs.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) have known as potentially hazardous air pollutants(HAPs0 to human health because of its carcinogenic and mutagenic behaviors. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of 6 PAHs(Fluoranthene, Pyrene, Benzo[a]anthracene, Chrysene, Benzo[b]fluoranthene, and Benzo[a]pyrene) as well as 10 inorganic elements(Cr, Na, K, Zn, Pb, Fe, Cu, Ti, Al and Cd) in the ambient PM-10. The total of 115 samples had been collected from February, 1996 to June, 1996 on quartz fiber by a PM-10 high volume air sampler near the Yong-Tong Apartment complexes. A statistical analysis was performed for the PAHs and inorganic elements data set using a principal component analysis in order to identify qualitatively the potential sources of PM-10. A total of 6 principal components were separated by intensive data pretrement and transformation processes, such as soil, refuse incineration, oil burning, coal burning, field burning, vehicle emission sources. The results showed that PAHs were associated with various burning activities like refuse and field burning, coal burning, and oil burning emissions in the study area. These derived sources were well matched with the previously known source profiles in terms of compositonal order and level of measured species. The combination data set consisted of both organic and inorganic species might provide more powerful source signature and might increase the number of potentially derived sources than PAHs or inorganic data alone.

ZnO seed layers were deposited on a quartz substrate using the sol-gel method, and B-doped ZnO (BZO) nanorods with different B concentrations ranging from 0 to 2.5 at.% were grown on the ZnO seed layers by the hydrothermal method. The structural, optical, electrical propertiesof the ZnO and BZO nanorods were investigated using field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence (PL), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and hall effect. The ZnO and BZO nanorods grew well aligned on the surface of the quartz substrates. From the XRD data, it can be seen that the B doping is responsible for the distortion of the ZnO lattice. The PL spectra show near-band-edge emission and deep-level emission, and they also show that B doping significantly affects the PL properties of ZnO nanorods. The optical band gaps are changed by B doping, and thus the Urbach energy value changed with the optical band gap of the ZnO nanorods. From the hall measurements, it can be observed that the values of electrical resistivity, carrier concentration, and mobility are changed by B doping.

We present results of long-term multi-wavelength polarization observations of the powerful blazar 3C 279 after its γ-ray flare on 2013 December 20. We followed up this flare with single-dish polarization observations using two 21-m telescopes of the Korean VLBI Network. Observations carried out weekly from 2013 December 25 to 2015 January 11, at 22 GHz, 43 GHz, 86 GHz simultaneously, as part of the Monitoring Of GAmma-ray Bright AGN (MOGABA) program. We measured 3C 279 total flux densities of 22–34 Jy at 22 GHz, 15–28 Jy (43 GHz), and 10–21 Jy (86 GHz), showing mild variability of ≤ 50 % over the period of our observations. The spectral index between 22 GHz and 86 GHz ranged from −0.13 to −0.36. Linear polarization angles were 27°–38°, 30°–42°, and 33°–50° at 22 GHz, 43 GHz, and 86 GHz, respectively. The degree of linear polarization was in the range of 6–12 %, and slightly decreased with time at all frequencies. We investigated Faraday rotation and depolarization of the polarized emission at 22–86 GHz, and found Faraday rotation measures (RM) of −300 to −1200 rad m⁻² between 22 GHz and 43 GHz, and −800 to −5100 rad m⁻² between 43 GHz and 86 GHz. The RM values follow a power law with a mean power law index a of 2.2, implying that the polarized emission at these frequencies travels through a Faraday screen in or near the jet. We conclude that the regions emitting polarized radio emission may be different from the region responsible for the 2013 December γ-ray flare and are maintained by the dominant magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of the radio jet at milliarcsecond scales.

Because an ecological community consists of diverse species that vary nonlinearly with environmental variability, its dynamics are complex and difficult to analyze. To investigate temporal variations of benthic macroinvertebrate community, we used the community data that were collected at the sampling site in Baenae Stream near Busan, Korea, which is a clean stream with minimum pollution, from July 2006 to July 2013. First, we used a self-organizing map (SOM) to heuristically derive the states that characterizes the biotic condition of the benthic macroinvertebrate communities in forms of time series data. Next, we applied the hidden Markov model (HMM) to fine-tune the states objectively and to obtain the transition probabilities between the states and the emission probabilities that show the connection of the states with observable events such as the number of species, the diversity measured by Shannon entropy, and the biological water quality index (BMWP). While the number of species apparently addressed the state of the community, the diversity reflected the state changes after the HMM training along with seasonal variations in cyclic manners. The BMWP showed clear characterization of events that correspond to the different states based on the emission probabilities. The environmental factors such as temperature and precipitation also indicated the seasonal and cyclic changes according to the HMM. Though the usage of the HMM alone can guarantee the convergence of the training or the precision of the derived states based on field data in this study, the derivation of the states by the SOM that followed the fine-tuning by the HMM well elucidated the states of the community and could serve as an alternative reference system to reveal the ecological structures in stream communities.

The structural and optical properties of the ZnO, Al-doped ZnO, Ga-doped ZnO, and In-doped ZnO nanorods were investigated using field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence (PL) and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. All the nanorods grew with good alignment on the ZnO seed layers and the ZnO nanorod dimensions could be controlled by the addition of the various dopants. For instance, the diameter of the nanorods decreased with increasing atomic number of the dopants. The ratio between the near-band-edge emission (NBE) and the deep-level emission (DLE) intensities ($I_{NBE}/I_{DLE}$) obtained by PL gradually decreased because the DLE intensity from the nanorods gradually increased with increase in the atomic number of the dopants. We found that the dopants affected the structural and optical properties of the ZnO nanorods including their dimensions, lattice constants, residual stresses, bond lengths, PL properties, transmittance values, optical band gaps, and Urbach energies.

Strategic plan of Subaru science and operation will be introduced. Currently, Subaru has wide variety of instruments, conducts only classical observations, with less than 5 nights allocation for each proposal. Near future, Subaru will emphasize on surveys, introduce queue mode observations, reduce the number of instruments, and concentrate on large size programs. Large surveys are called Subaru Strategic Programs (SSPs). HSC-SSP is on-going (300 nights for 5 years), PFS-SSP will start at around 2020 (360 nights for 5 years), and IRD-SSP from 2016 (TBD). HSC science includes 1) cosmology with gravitational lensing, 2) lensing studies of galaxies and clusters, 3) photometric redshifts, 4) the Solar system, 5) the Milky Way and the Local Group, 6) AGN/quasars, 7) transients, 8) galaxies at low/high redshifts, and 9) clusters of galaxies. PFS science includes 1) cosmology, 2) galaxy & AGN, and 3) galactic archaeology. Subaru is planning the third pillar instrument, so called ULTIMATE-Subaru, which is the GLAO optical-NIR wide field camera & multi-IFU spectrograph for finding galaxies at ultra high redshift (z>10). Finally the strategy from Subaru to TMT will be presented. Subaru will conduct four major SSPs (HSC, PFS, IRD, ULTIMATE-Subaru) in coming decade to provide targets to TMT. HSC performs wide field surveys to reveal the distribution of dark matter in the Universe. IRD surveys Earth-like young planets to discover ~20 Earth-like habitable planets. PFS studies the expanding Universe to provide a few million emission line galaxies to TMT.

The principal aim of this field study was to determine the concentrations and emissions of gaseous contaminants such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in the different types of pig buildings in Korea and allow objective comparison between Korea and the other countries in terms of pig housing types. This field study was performed from May to June and from September to October in 2002. Pig buildings investigated in this research were selected in terms of three criteria; manure removal system, ventilation mode and growth stage of pig. Measurements of concentration and emission of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in the pig buildings were done in 5 housing types and the visited farms were 15 sites per each housing type. Concentrations of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide were measured at three locations of the central alley in the pig building and emission rates of them were estimated by multiplying the average concentration($mg/m^3$) measured near the air outlet by the mean ventilation rate($m^3/h$) and expressed either per pig of liveweight 75kg(mg/h/pig) or per area($mg/h/m^2$). Concentrations of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in the pig buildings were averaged to 7.5 ppm and 286.5 ppb and ranged from 0.8 to 21.4 ppm and from 45.8 to 1,235 ppb, respectively. The highest concentrations of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide were found in the mechanically ventilated buildings with slats; 12.1 ppm and 612.8 ppb, while the lowest concentrations of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide were found in the pig buildings with deep-litter bed system(2.2 ppm) and the naturally ventilated pig buildings with manure removal system by scraper(115.2 ppb), respectively(p<0.05). All the pig buildings were investigated not to exceed the threshold limit values(TLVs) of ammonia(25 ppm) and hydrogen sulfide(10 ppm). The mean emissions of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide per pig(75kg in terms of liveweight) and area($m^2$) from pig buildings were 250.2 mg/h/pig and 37.8 mg/h/pig and $336.3mg/h/m^2$ and $50.9mg/h/m^2$, respectively. The pig buildings with deep-litter bed system showed the lowest emissions of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide(p<0.05). However, the emissions of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide from the other pig buildings were not significantly different(p>0.05). Concentrations and emissions of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide were relatively higher in the pig buildings managed with deep-pit manure system with slats and mechanical ventilation mode than the different pig housing types. In order to prevent pig farm workers from adverse health effect caused by exposure to ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in pig buildings, they should wear the respirators during shift and be educated sustainably for the guideline related to occupational safety.

수열합성법으로 실리콘 (111) 기판 위에 산화아연 나노막대를 성장하였다. 산화아연 나노막대를 성장하기 전, 실리콘 기판에 스핀코팅법으로 씨앗층을 성장하였다. 산화아연 나노막대는 오토클레이브(autoclave)로 $140^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 동안 성장하였고, 아르곤 분위기에서 300, 500, $700^{\circ}C$의 온도로 20분 동안 열처리하였다. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), photoluminescence (PL)를 이용하여 열처리한 산화아연 나노막대의 구조적, 광학적 특성을 분석하였다. 모든 산화아연 나노막대 시료에서 c-축 배향성을 나타내는 강한 ZnO (002) 회절 피크와 약한 ZnO (004) 회절 피크가 나타났다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 산화아연 나노로드의 residual stress는 compressive에서 tensile로 변하였다. Hexagonal 형태의 산화아연 나노로드를 관찰하였다. 산화아연 나노로드의 PL 스펙트럼은 free-exciton recombination에 의해 3.2 eV에서 좁은 near-band-edge emission (NBE) 피크와 산화아연 나노막대의 결함에 의해 2.12~1.96 eV에서 넓은 deep-level emission (DLE) 피크가 나타났다. 산화아연 나노막대를 열처리함에 따라, NBE 피크의 세기는 감소하였고 DLE 피크는 열처리에 의해 발생한 산소 관련 결함에 의하여 적색편이 하였다.
