  • An X-ray Free Electron laser facility (PAL-XFEL) has been built in Pohang Accelerator Laboratory to provide X-ray FEL radiations for photon users. The machine consists of a 10 GeV normalconducting S-band linear accelerator and two undulator beamlines. The hard and soft X-ray beamlines will provide FEL radiations with wavelengths of 0.6 to 0.1 nm and 4.5 to 1 nm, respectively. Beam commissioning of PAL-XFEL is ongoing and user service will start in 2017. In this report, the PAL-XFEL layout and the working principle are discussed.

  • MOS 소자의 얇은산화막(thin oxide)불량을 화학적으로 식각하지 않고 불량부위를 광전자방사(photon emission)반응을 이용하여 위치를 확인하고, 이곳을 FIB로 절단하여 불량부위의 단면을 관찰했다. 20nm 두께의 SiO2불량은 셀(cell)영역의 위치에 따른 의존성은 없고, 불량은 저전계의 입자(particle)성 불량과 중간전계의 Si 기판 핏(pit)과 관련된 불량이 주였다. 고전계에서는 전형적인 SiO2 산화막의 절연파괴가 일어난 것이 관찰된다.

  • The fundamentals of light-emitting diode lamp design are presented. The shapes of the reflecting cup and lens employed in LED lamps can be flexibly adjusted, over a relatively large range, by using a few parameters. The analysis of the designed lamps by Monte Carlo photon simulation shows that diverse far-field beam patterns required in various application areas can be achieved.

  • The purpose of this study is to assess the additional neutron effective dose during passive scattering proton therapy. Monte Carlo code (Monte Carlo N-Particle 6) simulation was conducted based on a precise modeling of the National Cancer Center's proton therapy facility. A three-dimensional neutron effective dose profile of the interior of the treatment room was acquired via a computer simulation of the 217.8-MeV proton beam. Measurements were taken with a $^3He$ neutron detector to support the simulation results, which were lower than the simulation results by 16% on average. The secondary photon dose was about 0.8% of the neutron dose. The dominant neutron source was deduced based on flux calculation. The secondary neutron effective dose per proton absorbed dose ranged from $4.942{\pm}0.031mSv/Gy$ at the end of the field to $0.324{\pm}0.006mSv/Gy$ at 150 cm in axial distance.

  • We describe the design of a soft X-ray grating monochromator for synchrotron radiation in the photon energy range 300~1200eV. We investigate the optimum condition in optical parameters of CEM (cylindrical element monochromator), whose performance is well known by Dragon beam line installed recently at Brookhaven National Laboratory by C. T. Chen, fitting the parameter of PLS (Pohang Light Source) storage ring construction.

  • The optical constants ($E_g^d$, n, K) of the polycrystalline CdSe thin films deposited on the glass substrate by the electron-beam evaporation technique are determined over 400~2,500 nm photon wavelengths. In order to explain the variation of the optical contents with film thickness and substrate temperatures, the surface microstructural parameter are investigated by AFM (atomic forced microscope( images for the films deposited by different growth conditions. It is shown that the variations of optical constants are close related to changes of the surface morphology of the CdSe thin films. The decrease in the band gap with film thickness is connected with quantum size effects due to increase of the grain size. The refractive index of CdSe films decrease with increasing the grain size of the films, and the dispersion of the refractive index followed a single oscillator model according to the Sellmeier formulation.

  • Recently linear accelerator in radiation therapy in asymmetric field has been easily used since the improvement and capability of asymmetrical field adjustment attached to the machine. It has been thought there have been some significant errors in dose calculation when asymmetrical radiation fields have been utilized in practice of radiation treatments if the fundamental data for dose calculation have been measured in symmetrical standard fields. This study investigated how much the measured data of dose distributions and their isodose curves are different between in asymmetrical and symmetrical standard fields, and how much there difference affect the error in dose calculation in conventional method measured in symmetrical standard field. The distributions of radiation dose were measured by photon diode detector in the water phantom (RFA-300P, Scanditronix, Sweden) as tissue equivalent material on utilization of 6 MV linear accelerator with source surface distance (SSD) 1000 mm. The photon diode detector has the velocity of 1 mm per second from water surface to 250 mm depth in the field size of $40mm{\times}40mm\;to\;250mm{\times}250mm\;symmetric\;field\;and\;40mm{\times}20mm\;to\;250mm{\times}125mm$ asymmetrical fields. The measurements of percent depth dose (PDD) and subsequent plotting of their isodose curves were performed from water surface to 250mm dmm from Y-center axis in $100mm{\times}50mm$ field in order to absence the variability of depth dose according to increasing field sizes and their affects to plotted isodose curves. The difference of PDD between symmetric and asymmetric field was maximum $4.1\%\;decrease\;in\;40mm{\times}20mm\;field,\;maximum\;6.6\%\;decrease\;in\;100mm{\times}50mm\;and\;maximum\;10.2\%\;decrease\;200mm{\times}100mm$, the larger decrease difference of PDD as the greater field size and as greater the depth, The difference of PDD between asymmetrical field and equivalent square field showed maximum $2.4\%\;decrease\;in\;60mm{\times}30mm\;field,\;maximum\;4.8\%\;decrease\;in\;150mm{\times}75mm\;and\;maximum\;6.1\%\;decrease\;in\;250mm{\times}125mm$, and the larger decreased differenced PDD as the greater field size and as greater the depth, these differences of PDD were out of $5\%$ of dose calculation as defined by international Commission on radiation unit and Measurements(ICRU). In the dose distribution of asymmetrical field (half beam) the plotted isodose curves were observed to have deviations by decreased PDD as greater as the blocking of the beam moved closer to the central axis, and as the asymmetrical field increased by moving the block 10 mm keeping away from the central axis, the PDD increased and plotted isodose curves were gradually more flattened, due to reduced amount of the primary beam and the fraction of low energy soft radiations by passing thougepth in asymmetrical field by moving independent jaw each 10 h beam flattening filter. As asymmetrical radiation field as half beam radiation technique is used, the radiation dosimetry calculated in utilizing the fundamental data which measured in standard symmetrical field should be converted on bases of nearly measured data in asymmetrical field, measured beam data flies of various asymmetrical field in various energy and be necessary in each institution.
