Time-of-flight impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy (TOF-ICISS) was applied to study the geometrical structure of epitaxially grown TiO layers on a MgO(001) surface. The hetero-epitaxial TiO layer was deposited by thermal evaporation of titanium onto the MgO(001) surface and subsequent exposure to oxygen at 400℃. The well-ordered TiO structure was confirmed with the 1×1 RHEED pattern. TOF-ICISS results revealed that the TiO layer was formed at the on-top sites of the MgO(001) substrate and that the lateral lattice constant of TiO layer was the same as that of the MgO substrate. The surface of the deposited epitaxial TiO layer was smooth without the three dimensional islands.

Time-of-flight impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy (TOF-ICISS) using 2 keV $He^+$ ion was applied to study the geometrical structure of the $BaTiO_3$ thin film which was grown on the MgO(100) surface. Hetero-epitaxial $BaTiO_3$ layers were formed on the MgO(100) surface by thermal evaporation of titanium followed first by oxidation at $400^{\circ}C$, subsequently by barium evaporation, and finally by annealing at $800^{\circ}C$. The atomic structure of $BaTiO_3$ layers was investigated by the scattering intensity variation of $He^+$ ions on TOF-ICISS and by the patterns of reflection high energy electron diffraction. The scattered ion intensity was measured along the <001> and <011> azimuth varying the incident angle. Our investigation revealed that perovskite structured $BaTiO_3$ layers were grown with a larger lattice parameter than that of the bulk phase on the MgO(100) surface.

In this paper, a hardware architecture of phase calculator for 3D image processing is proposed. The designed phase calculator, which adopts a pipelined architecture to improve throughput, performs arctangent operation using vectoring mode of CORDIC algorithm. Fixed-point MATLAB modeling and simulations are carried out to determine the optimized bit-widths and number of iteration. Phase calculator designed in Verilog HDL is verified by emulating the restoration of virtual 3D data using MATLAB/Simulink and FPGA-in-the-loop verification.

The selective chemical vapor deposition techniques for Cu metallization were studied. For enhancing the selectivity, furnace annealing and N$_{2}$ plasma were treated on patterned TiN/BPSG prior to the copper deposition. As a result, Cu did not deposited lead to suppressing the nucleation on BPSG singificantly. With the increasement the plasma treatment temperature, copper nucleation on BPSG was suppressed mote effectively, From TOF-SIMS(Time-of-Flight Secondary ion Mass Spectrometry), it is considered that annealing and N$_{2}$ plasma treatment remove hydroxyl(0-H) group so that eliminating the nucleation site for copper precursor enhance the selectivity.

Ta을 2MeV의 에너지로 가속시켜 1x$10^{17}$atoms/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 농도로 TiC(001)면에 이온 주입시킨 후 비행시간형 직충돌이온산란 분광법(time-of-flight impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy; TOF-ICISS)을 사용하여 TiC(001)면의 Ta표면 편석을 연구하였다. TOF-ICISS는 표면 수층 깊이까지 원자구조를 측정할 수 있는 수법으로, 이온주입된 시편을 1$600^{\circ}C$에서 300sec동안 진공 가열하여 Ta 원자를 편석시킨 후 스펙트럼의 입사각도 의존성을 구함으로써 Ta원자의 편석 위치 및 농도구배를 조사하였다. [110]및 [100]방위에서 Ta과 Ti의 focusing peak가 서로 같은 입사각도에서 나타나며 편석된 Ta원자는 TiC의 Ti-site에 위치한다. Ta원자는 표면 최외층에만 편석되는 것이 아니라 수층에 걸쳐 Ti-site에 자리하고 있으며, Ta 원자의 농도는 표면 최외층에서 내부 층으로 깊어질수록 작아진다. 이온주입시 생성된 표면층의 탄소 격자 결함은 시편 가열시 벌크에 자리하는 탄소가 확산되어 없어진다.다.

Expansion dynamics of C$^{+}$ ions ejected from 355-nm laser ablation of graphite target in vacuum has been investigated by pulsed-field time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry. A strong nonlinear dependence of the amount of desorbed C$^{+}$ ions on laser fluence is interpreted by the mechanism that C$^{+}$ ions are produced directly from the graphite via conversion of the multiphoton energy into thermal energy. The temporal evolution of C$^{+}$ ions was measured by varying the delay time of the ion repelling pulse with respect to the laser irradiation, which provides significant information on the ablated plume characterization. The TOF distributions of ablated ions showed a bimodal shape and could be fitted by shifted Maxwell-Boltzmann distributions. The velocity of the fast component increases with the delay time, whereas the slow component (< 500 m/s) exhibits a constant velocity. Also studied were the effects of the laser fluence on the energetics of C$^{+}$ ions.

It is important to visualize a lesion accurately in diagnosis of disease. Many diseases result in a change of lesion. Magnetic resonance angiography can visualize the morphological characteristics of blood vessel. The magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) can be categorized to time-of-flight, phase contrast, and contrast enhanced MRA. In this paper, we introduce a principle, sequence, and feature of angiography For better image quality we describe data processing methods and show several applications to human bodies

The neutron capture cross section of $^{99}Tc$ has been measured relative to the $^{10}B(n,\gamma)$ standard cross section by the neutron time-of-flight(TOF) method in the energy range of 0.007 eV to 47 keV using a 46-MeV electron linear accelerator(linac) at the Research Reactor. Institute, Kyoto University(KURRI). In order to experimentally prove the result obtained, the supplementary cross section measurement has been made from 0.3 eV to 1 keV using the Kyoto University Lead stowing-down spectrometer (KULS) coupling to the linac. The relative measurement by the TOF method has been normalized to the reference value(20.01 b) at 0.0253 eV and the KULS measurement to that by the TOF method. The existing experimental data and the evaluated capture cross sections in ENDF/B-VI, JENDL-3.2, and JEF-2.2 have been compared with the current measurements by the linac TOF and the KULS experiments.

The 2B subunit of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors (NR2B) is the major phosphotyrosine-containing pro-tein in the postsynaptic density (PSD). In order to identify the site for tyrosine phosphorylation on NR2B, a mass spectrometry was applied on tryptic and endolys-C peptides. The NR2B subunit was isolated from N-octyl glucoside (NOG)-insoluble PSD fraction through SDS-PAGE and electroelution. The eluted protein was confirmed to be NR2B and phosphorylated on tyrosine by its cognate antibody and phosphotyrosine-specific antibody. By matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry of the peptides generated by digesting the eluted NR2B with trysin or endolys-C, a potential site for tyrosine phosphorylation could be identified as Tyr-1304.

Although the bulk composition of materials is one of the major considerations in extractive metallurgy and environmental science, surface composition and topography control surface reactivity, and consequently play a major role in determining metallurgical phenomena and pollution by heavy metals and organics. An understanding of interaction mechanisms of different chemical species at the mineral surface in an aqueous media is very important in natural environment and metallurgical processing. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has been used as an ex-situ analytical technique, but the material to be analyzed can be any size from $100\;{\mu}m$ up to about 1 cm. It can also measure mixed solids powders, but it is impossible to ascertain the original source of resulting x-ray signals where they were emitted from, since it radiates and scans the macro sample surface area. The study demonstrated the ability of TOF-SIMS to detect individual organic species on the surfaces of mineral particles from plant samples and showed that the TOF-SIMS techniques provides an excellent tool for establishing the surface compositions of mineral grains and relative concentrations of chemicals on mineral species.
