To derive coronal temperature, electron density and nonthermal velocity, we have analyzed high resolution spectra (e.g., Fe XII 338.3, Fe XII 352.1, Fe XIV 334.2, Fe XIV 353.8, Fe XV 284.2, Fe XV 321.8, Fe XV 327.0, Fe XVI 335.4, and Fe XVI 360.8) taken from AR 6615 by SERTS (Solar Extreme Ultraviolet Rocket Telescope and Spectrograph). Important findings emerging from the present study are as follows: (1) Temperature estimated from Fe XVI 335.4 and Fe XIV, 334.2 is $\~2.4\times10^6 K$ and no systematic difference in temperature is found between the active region and its adjacent quiet region; (2) Mean electron density estimated from Fe XV is $\~3\times10^9 cm^{-3}\;and\;\~10^{10} cm^{-3}$ from Fe XII and Fe XIV; (3) Mean density of the active region is found to be higher than that of the quiet region by a factor of 2; (4) Nonthermal velocity estimated from Fe XV and Fe XVI is $20\times25 km\;s^{-l}$ which decreases with increasing ionization temperatures. This supports the notion that the nonthermal velocity declines outwards above the transition region.

The physical effects of H-plasma treatment on ZnO thin film have been studied using photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy. Four characteristic peaks have been identified: (i) $D^0X$ peak (neutral donor-bound exciton), showing relatively small integrated intensity after H-plasma treatment, indicates that H-plasma passivates the neutral donors in ZnO at low temperatures. The rapid decrease in the integrated intensity of the peak as the temperature goes up is considered to be due to the ionization of neutral donors. (ii) H-related complex-bound exciton peak appears at the low temperatures (10 K~80 K) after H-plasma treatment, showing the same thermal evolution as $D^0X$ peak. (iii) FX (free exciton) peak starts to show up at 60 K and grows more and more as the temperature goes up, which is considered to be related to the increase in free electron concentration in the film. (iv) violet band is intensified after H-plasma, which means more defects and impurities are generated by H-plasma process.

Recently, high luminance and high efficiency were realized in OLEDs with multilayer structure including emitting materials such as metal-chelate complexes. New luminescent materials, [2- (2-hydroxyphenyl)-quinoline] (Zn(HPB)q), [(1,10-phenanthroline)- (8-hydroxyquinoline)] Zn(Phen)q was synthesized. Zn-Complexes have low molecular compound and thermal stability. The ionization potential(IP) and electron affinity(EA) of Zn-complexes were measured by cyclic-voltammetry(CV). The fundamental structure of the OLEDs was $ITO/{\alpha}$-NPD/Zn-Complex/Al and then we made device structure rightly in energy band gap. We using Zn(Phen)q as emitting layer and Zn(HPB)q as electron transport layer. We measured current density-voltage, luminance-voltage characteristics.

The correlation of the isotopic composition of uranium, plutonium, neodymium, and cesium with the burnup for high burnup pressurized water reactor fuels irradiated in nuclear power reactors has been experimentally investigated. The total burnup was determined by Nd-148 and the fractional $^{235}U$ burnup was determined by U and Pu mass spectrometric methods. The isotopic compositions of U, Pu, Nd, and Cs after their separation from the irradiated fuel samples were measured using thermal ionization mass spectrometry. The contents of these elements in the irradiated fuel were determined through an isotope dilution mass spectrometric method using $^{233}U$, $^{242}Pu$, $^{150}Nd$, and $^{133}Cs$ as spikes. The activity ratios of Cs isotopes in the fuel samples were determined using gamma-ray spectrometry. The content of each element and its isotopic compositions in the irradiated fuel were expressed by their correlation with the total and fractional burnup, burnup parameters, and the isotopic compositions of different elements. The results obtained from the experimental methods were compared with those calculated using the ORIGEN-S code.

The overestimation and underestimation of the radioactivity concentration of difficult-to-measure radionuclides can occur during the implementation of the scaling factor (SF) method because of the uncertainties associated with sampling, radiochemical analysis, and application of SFs. Strict regulations ensure that the SF method as an indirect method does not underestimate the radioactivity of nuclear wastes; however, there are no clear regulatory guidelines regarding the overestimation. This has been leading to the misuse of the SF methodology by stakeholders such as waste disposal licensees and regulatory bodies. Previous studies have reported instances of overestimation in statistical implementation of the SF methodology. The analysis of the two most popular linear models of the SF methodology showed that severe overestimation may occur and radioactivity concentration data must be dealt with care. Since one major source of overestimation is the use of minimum detectable activity (MDA) values as true activity values, a comparative study of instrumental techniques that could reduce the MDAs was also conducted. Thermal ionization mass spectrometry was recommended as a suitable candidate for the trace level analysis of long-lived beta-emitters such as iodine-129. Additionally, the current status of the United States and Korea was reviewed from the perspective of overestimation.

최대출력 30 MW, 하나로(HANARO) 다목적 연구용 원자로의 접선 중성자공에 붕소중성자포획치료(Boron Neutron Capture Therapy, BNCT)를 위한 열중성자 조사장치가 개발되었다. BNCT 조사장치에서는 서로 다른 물리적 특성과 생물학적 효과비를 가진 여러 성분의 방사선이 방출되기 때문에 정확한 투여선량을 결정하기 위해서는 각 성분의 정량적 분석이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 방사화 분석, 열형광선량계 및 이온전리함 등 여러 유형의 검출기를 사용하여 BNCT 조사장치에서 방출되는 열중성자 및 감마선 혼합장의 선량 성분을 분리, 측정하였다. 선량측정은 물 속에 함유된 불순물과 중성자의 이차반응을 최소화하기 위해 증류수를 채운 물팬텀을 이용하였다. 그리고 측정 결과는 MCNP4B 전산계산의 결과와 상호 비교하였다. 측정 결과 열중성자속은 물팬텀 10 mm와 20 mm 깊이에서 각각 $1.02E9n/cm^2{\cdot}s$과 $6.07E8n/cm^2{\cdot}s$이었고, 고속중성자선량율은 10 mm 깊이에서 0.11 Gy/hr로 미세하였다. 감마선량률은 물팬텀 20 mm 깊이에서 5.10 Gy/hr로 나타났다. 측정된 중성자와 감마선량값은 MCNP의 결과와 5% 이내로 잘 일치하였고, 열중성자속은 14%의 비교오차를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과들은 중성자 검출의 난이도를 고려할 때 충분히 신뢰할 수 있는 수준이라 판단되며, BNCT 임상 연구를 위한 선량평가 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

극미량 우라늄시료에 대한 열이온화 질량분석기를 이용하여 우라늄 동위원소 비 측정 및 정량과 관련하여 고순도(zone refined) 레늄필라멘트와 일반 레늄필라멘트로부터 오는 바탕값(background) 특성을 비교하였다. 두 종류 필라멘트에서 가벼운 알칼리금속원소들의 클러스터(cluster)인 $(^{39}K_6)^+$, $(^{39}K_5+^{41}K)^+$ 및 금속산화물($PbO_2$)로 추측되는 우라늄 동중원소영향(isobaric effect)을 확인하였다. 고순도 레늄필라멘트를 < $10^{-7}$ torr에서 약 $2000^{\circ}C$로 1.5 시간 이상 degassing 함으로 불순물들을 완전히 제거할 수 있었으나 일반 레늄필라멘트의 경우 5시간 이상 degassing을 하여도 약 3 pg-U이 남아있었다. 일반 레늄필라멘트에 대한 불순물 제거(degassing) 실험결과 5 A, 30 분이 불순물제거의 최소조건이었다. U-233을 spike로 사용, 동위원소희석 질량분석법으로 일반 레늄필라멘트 중 불순물로 포함된 우라늄 양을 측정한 결과 degassing을 하지 않은 필라멘트에서는 0.31 ng-U이 측정되었고, degassing (5.5 A, 1 hr.)을 한 것은 약 3 pg-U 이 측정되었다. 즉, 일반필라멘트의 경우, degassing을 하더라도 1 ng-U 시료에 대하여 0.3% 오차를 근본적으로 갖는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 환경급 극미량 우라늄시료 측정에는 고순도 필라멘트를 degassing하여 사용해야 함을 알 수 있었다. 우라늄 측정 시 필라멘트 전류를 5.5 A로 하였을 때보다 6.0 A로 했을 때 불순물 우라늄 량이 1.5 배 더 크게 나타났다. 따라서 필라멘트 전류를 5.5 A 이상 올리지 않는 것이 바탕값 영향이 작음을 알 수 있었다. 우라늄 표준물질(KRISS 표준물질/NIST U-005, 030)을 사용하여 우라늄 동위원소 함량을 측정한 후 인증 값과 비교한 결과 U-235 는 0.04%, U-234, U-236는 2% 이내에서 각각 일치하였다.

Titanium nitride (TiN) thin films have useful properties including high hardness, good electrical conductivity, high melting point, and chemical inertness. The applications have included wear-resistant hard coatings on machine tools and bearings, decorative coating making use of the golden color, thermal control coatings for widows, and erosion resistant coatings for spacecraft plasma probes. For all these applications as feature sizes shrink and aspect ratios grow, the issue of good step coverage becomes increasingly important. It is therefore essential to manufacture conformal coatings of TiN. The growth of TiN thin films by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is of great interest for achieving conformal deposition. The most widely used precursor for TiN is TiCl4 and NH3. However, chlorine impurity in the as-grown films and relatively high deposition temperature (>$600^{\circ}C$) are considered major drawbacks from actual device fabrication. To overcome these problems, recently, MOCVD processes including plasma assisted have been suggested. In this study, therefore, we have doposited Ti(C, N) thin films on Si(100) and D2 steel substrates in the temperature range of 150-30$0^{\circ}C$ using tetrakis diethylamido titanium (TDEAT) and titanium isopropoxide (TIP) by pulsed DC plamsa enhanced metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (PEMOCVD) method. Polycrystalline Ti(C, N) thin films were successfully grown on either D2 steel or Si(100) surfaces at temperature as low as 15$0^{\circ}C$. Compositions of the as-grown films were determined with XPS and RBS. From XPS analysis, thin films of Ti(C, N) with low oxygen concentration were obtained. RBS data were also confirmed the changes of stoichiometry and microhardness of our films. Radical formation and ionization behaviors in plasma are analyzed by optical emission spectroscopy (OES) at various pulsed bias and gases conditions. H2 and He+H2 gases are used as carrier gases to compare plasma parameter and the effect of N2 and NH3 gases as reactive gas is also evaluated in reduction of C content of the films. In this study, we fond that He and H2 mixture gas is very effective in enhancing ionization of radicals, especially N resulting is high hardness. The higher hardness of film is obtained to be ca. 1700 HK 0.01 but it depends on gas species and bias voltage. The proper process is evident for H and N2 gas atmosphere and bias voltage of 600V. However, NH3 gas highly reduces formation of CN radical, thereby decreasing C content of Ti(C, N) thin films in a great deal. Compared to PVD TiN films, the Ti(C, N) film grown by PEMOCVD has very good conformability; the step coverage exceeds 85% with an aspect ratio of more than 3.
