Dimeric metallamacrocycles of 2 : 2 (metal-to-ligand) stoichiometry, [Pd{${\alpha},{\omega}$-bis(diphenylphosphino)oligothienylene}$Cl_2]_2$ 1-3 were prepared from a self-assembly reaction of $[Pd(CH_3CN)_2Cl_2]$ and ${\alpha},{\omega}$-bis-(diphenylphosphino)oligothienylene in 90-94% yields. The structures of metallamacrocycles 1-3 were determined by X-ray diffraction. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group $P2_1$/n with a/$\AA$ = 12.0737(13), b/$\AA$ = 17.1993(18), c/$\AA$ = 13.0951(14) and ${\beta}/^{\circ}$ = 101.505(2). 2 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P with a/$\AA$ = 10.2634(4), b/$\AA$ = 19.7855(9), c/$\AA$ = 21.0851(9), ${\alpha}/^{\circ}$ = 63.1010(10), ${\beta}/^{\circ}$ = 86.5880(10), ${\gamma}/^{\circ}$ = 81.2280(10). 3 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P with a/$\AA$ = 10.4353(19), b/$\AA$ = 13.482(3), c/$\AA$ = 13.816(3), ${\alpha}/^{\circ}$ = 108.027(4), ${\beta}/^{\circ}$ = 90.461(4), ${\gamma}/^{\circ}$ = 93.261(4). The UV spectra of 1-3 were characterized.

This paper presents an assessment of applicability of the multigroup cross sections generated with Monte Carlo tools to the fast reactor analysis based on transport calculations. 33-group cross section sets were generated for simple one- (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) sodium-cooled fast reactor problems using the SERPENT code and applied to deterministic steady-state and depletion calculations. Relative to the reference continuous-energy SERPENT results, with the transport corrected P₀ scattering cross section, the k-eff value was overestimated by 506 and 588 pcm for 1-D and 2-D problems, respectively, since anisotropic scattering is important in fast reactors. When the scattering order was increased to P₅, the 1-D and 2-D problem errors were increased to 577 and 643 pcm, respectively. A sensitivity and uncertainty analysis with the PERSENT code indicated that these large k-eff errors cannot be attributed to the statistical uncertainties of cross sections and they are likely due to the approximate anisotropic scattering matrices determined by scalar flux weighting. The anisotropic scattering cross sections were alternatively generated using the MC²-3 code and merged with the SERPENT cross sections. The mixed cross section set consistently reduced the errors in k-eff, assembly powers, and nuclide densities. For example, in the 2-D calculation with P3 scattering order, the k-eff error was reduced from 634 pcm to -223 pcm. The maximum error in assembly power was reduced from 2.8% to 0.8% and the RMS error was reduced from 1.4% to 0.4%. The maximum error in the nuclide densities at the end of 12-month depletion that occurred in ²³⁷Np was reduced from 3.4% to 1.5%. The errors of the other nuclides are also reduced consistently, for example, from 1.1% to 0.1% for ²³⁵U, from 2.2% to 0.7% for ²³⁸Pu, and from 1.6% to 0.2% for ²⁴¹Pu. These results indicate that the scalar flux weighted anisotropic scattering cross sections of SERPENT may not be adequate for application to fast reactors where anisotropic scattering is important.

This paper present a performance evaluation method for Timed Place Petri Nets modeled by Live-and-Bounded Circuits (LB-circuits) through a bottom-up approach. The method can handle the case for the nets having common resources(CR). The target system is divided into the sub-systems by disconnecting the common Transition-Transition-Path(TTP) or Place-Place-Path (PPP) between sub-systems. The common PPP pattern is classified into Parallel Common Resource (PCR) and Sequential Common Resource (SCR) in detail for handling common resources. We evaluate the performance of each divided sub-system, and calculate the sub-systems affect on the performance of the whole system. The facts are generalized as a theorem. The developed theorem are applied into the performance evaluation of an automated assembly system shown in an example. All the results are verified by simulation.

We have fabricated a planar lightwave circuit (PLC) hybrid-integrated optical sub-assembly of a triplexer using a thin film filter (TFF)-attached wavelength division multiplexer (WDM) and photodiode (PD) carriers. Two types of TFFs were attached to a diced side of a silica-terraced PLC platform, and the PD carriers with a $45^{\circ}$ mirror on which pin-PDs were bonded were assembled with the platform. A clear transmitter eye-pattern and minimum receiver sensitivity of -24.5 dBm were obtained under 1.25 Gb/s operation for digital applications, and a second-order inter-modulation distortion (IMD2) of -70 dBc was achieved for an analog receiver.

금속 나노구조체에서의 localized surface plasmon resonance와 surface-enhanced Raman scattering 현상은 센서를 비롯한 다양한 응용분야를 가지고 있다. 나노구조체 array 형성을 위한 대표적인 top-down 방식인 e-beam lithography 공정은 제조비용이 매우 높고 대량생산 및 대면적화에도 한계가 있기에 polystyrene(PS) bead의 self-assembly를 이용한 nanosphere lithography와 같은 bottom-up 방식이 폭넓게 연구되고 있다. Closed-packing된 PS bead의 monolayer를 얻기 위해서는 기판의 친수성 처리가 필요한데, 기존의 많은 연구에서는 기판의 표면개질에 화학적 공정을 이용하고 있다. 하지만 이는 기판 선택의 자유도를 떨어뜨리는 원인이 된다. 금속이나 실리콘 기판에서는 산성 용액을 이용한 화학적 처리방법을 적용할 수 있지만 SU-8과 같은 감광액 및 폴리머 기판에서는 산에 대한 내구성이 떨어져 화학적 공정의 도입이 불가능 하기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 한계점을 극복하기 위해 $UV-O_3$ 공정으로 친수성 처리된 다양한 기판에서 spin coating을 통한 PS monolayer를 제조하였는데, UV 램프의 에너지 조절을 통해 기판에 붙어있는 유기물들을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있었고 $O_3$ 생성 및 분해 과정에서 기판 표면에 친수성 화학 작용기를 생성시킬 수 있었다. 제조된 PS layer를 mask로 사용하여 Ag, Al, Au 등 다양한 나노구조체 array를 형성하여 array 주기에 따른 플라즈몬 공명 특성을 분석하였다. 레이저 조사로 나노구조체의 형상을 변화시킴으로써 동일한 물질과 주기를 가진 array에서도 플라즈몬 특성의 변조가 가능함을 확인하였는데, 이는 금속 나노구조체의 응용측면에서 매우 고무적인 발견이다.

The conceptual study of Accelerator Driven System (ADS) had lasted for about five years and ended in 1999 in China. As one project of 'the major state basic research program (973)' in energy domain, which is sponsored by the China Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), a five years program of basic research for ADS physics and related technology has been launched since 2000 and passed national review last month. CIAE (China Institute of Atomic Energy), IHEP (Institute of High Energy Physics), PKU-IHIP (Institute of Heavy Ion Physics in Peking University) and other institutions are jointly carrying on the research. The research activities are focused on HPPA physics and technology, reactor physics of external source driven sub-critical assembly, nuclear data base and material study. For HPPA, a high current injector consisting of an ECR ion source, LEBT and a RFQ accelerating structure of 3.5MeV has been built. In reactor physics study, a series of neutron multiplication experimental study has been carried out and is being carrying on. The VENUS facility has been constructed as the basic experimental platform for the neutronics study in ADS blanket. It's a zero power sub-critical neutron multiplying assembly driven by external neutron produced by a pulsed neutron generator. The theoretical, experimental and simulation study on nuclear data, material properties and nuclear fuel circulation related to ADS is carrying on to provide the database for ADS system analysis. The main results on ADS related researches will be reported.

A rotordynamic analysis is performed for a 7 ton class turbopump applied to the third stage LRE(Liquid Rocket Engine) of the KSLV(Korea Space Launch Vehicle). Based on the heritage of the developed experimental 30 ton class turbopump and developing 75 ton class turbopump for the KSLV first and second stage LRE, the 7 ton class turbopump is designed as an one-axis rotor turbopump. Two rotor systems comprised of one oxidizer pump assembly and the other fuel pump-turbine assembly are connected each other using a spline shaft and operating at a design speed. Through the rotordynamic analysis, it is investigated that the turbopump acquires sufficient separate margin of critical speed as a sub-critical rotor.

To ensure radiological safety margin in the transport and storage of spent nuclear fuel, it is crucial to perform source term and shielding analyses in advance from the perspective of conservation. When performing source term analysis on UO₂ fuel, which is mostly used in commercial nuclear power plants, uranium and oxygen are basically considered to be the initial materials of the new fuel. However, the presence of impurities in the fuel and structural materials of the fuel assembly may influence the source term and shielding analyses. The impurities could be radioactive materials or the stable materials that are activated by irradiation during reactor power operation. As measuring the impurity concentration levels in the fuel and structural materials can be challenging, publicly available information on impurity concentration levels is used as a reference in this evaluation. To assess the effect of impurities, the results of the source term and shielding analyses were compared depending on whether the assumed impurity concentration is considered. For the shielding analysis, generic cask design data developed by KEPCO-E&C was utilized.

Porous manganese oxide porous nanostructures were prepared by amino-acid-mediated solvothermal self assembly reaction and subsequent heat treatment at $600^{\circ}C$. When Mn-precursors were heat-treated at $400-550^{\circ}C$, the sensors did not show significant gas responses. In contrast, the manganese oxide heat-treated at $600^{\circ}C$ showed the significant gas responses, that is, the resistance decrease to 100 ppm $C_3H_8$ ($R_a/R_g$ = 2.17, $R_a$ : resistance in air, $R_g$ : resistance in gas) and the resistance increase to 100 ppm $C_2H_5OH$ ($R_g/R_a$ = 1.92). The opposite change of resistance upon exposure to $C_3H_8$ and $C_2H_5OH$ was discussed in relation to the mixed phases of manganese oxides with different valences.

A novel supramolecular network containing binuclear copper unit $[Cu(phen)_{2}({\mu}-ID\;A)Cu(phen){\cdot}(NO_{3})](NO_{3}){\cdot}4(H_{2}O)$ (1) was synthesized through the self-assembly of iminodiacetic acid ($H_2IDA$) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) in the condition of pH = 6. It has been characterized by the infrared (IR) spectroscopy, elemental analysis, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). 1 shows a 2-D supramolecular structure assembled through strong and unique $\pi-\pi$ packing interactions. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that theoretical optimized structures can well reproduce the experimental structure. The TGA and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) curves indicate that the complex 1 can maintain the structural integrity even at the loss of free water molecules. The magnetic property is also reported in this paper.
