Arsenic interruption growth (AIG)법을 이용하여 GaAs 기판에 성장한 InAs 양자점(quantum dots, QDs)의 광학적 특성을 PL (photoluminescence)과 time-resolved PL을 이용하여 분석하였다. AIG법은 InAs 양자점 성장 동안 In 공급은 계속 유지하면서 셔텨(shutter)를 이용해서 As 공급과 차단을 조절하는 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 As 공급과 차단을 1초(S1), 2초(S2), 또는 3초(S3) 동안 반복하여 성장한 InAs QDs과 As 차단 없이 성장한 기준시료(S0)를 사용하였다. AIG법으로 성장한 시료들의 PL 세기는 기준시료보다 모두 강하게 나타나고, As 차단 시간에 따라 PL 피크는 적색이동(redshifted) 또는 청색이동 (blueshifted)하여 나타났다. 기준시료 S0의 PL 피크와 비교하였을 때 S1의 PL 피크의 적색이동은 양자점 평균 길이가 S0보다 증가하였기 때문이며, S3의 청색이동은 양자점 평균 길이가 S0보다 감소하였기 때문이다. AIG법으로 성장한 QDs 시료들의 PL 세기의 증가는 cluster의 감소, 양자점 밀도의 증가, 균일도의 향상, 종횡비(aspect ratio) 향상으로 설명된다. 온도에 따른 PL 세기와 PL 피크 에너지, PL 소멸 시간과 발광 파장에 따른 PL 소멸 시간을 측정하였다. As 공급과 차단을 2초로 하였을 때 cluster는 전혀 나타나지 않았고 양자점의 밀도는 증가하였으며 균일도와 종횡비도 향상되었다. 또한 S2는 가장 강한 PL 세기와 가장 긴 소멸 시간을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 AIG법을 이용하여 InAs 양자점의 크기, 조밀도, 균일도, 종횡비 등을 조절하여 원하는 파장대의 양자점을 성장할 수 있으며 발광 특성도 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. The optical properties of InAs quantum dots (QDs) grown on GaAs substrates grown by molecular beam epitaxy have been studied using photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL measurements. InAs QDs were grown using an arsenic interruption growth (AIG) technique, in which the As flux was periodically interrupted by a closed As shutter during InAs QDs growth. In this study, the shutter of As source was periodically opened and closed for 1 (S1), 2 (S2), or 3 s (S3). For comparison, an InAs QD sample (S0) without As interruption was grown in a pure GaAs matrix for 20 s. The PL intensity of InAs QD samples grown by AIG technique is stronger than that of the reference sample (S0). While the PL peaks of S1 and S2 are redshifted compared to that of S0, the PL peak of S3 is blueshifted from that of S0. The increase of the PL intensity for the InAs QDs grown by AIG technique can be explained by the reduced InAs clusters, the increased QD density, the improved QD uniformity, and the improved aspect ratio (height/length). The redshift (blueshift) of the PL peak for S1 (S3) compared with that for S0 is attributed to the increase (decrease) in the QD average length compared to the average length of S0. The PL intensity, PL peak position, and PL decay time have been investigated as functions of temperature and emission wavelength. S2 shows no InAs clusters, the increased InAs QD density, the improved QD uniformity, and the improved QD aspect ratio. S2 also shows the strongest PL intensity and the longest PL decay time. These results indicate that the size (shape), density, and uniformity of InAs QDs can be controlled by using AIG technique. Therefore the emission wavelength and luminescence properties of InAs/GaAs QDs can also be controlled.

The fundamental problem of communication is that of transmitting a message from a source to a destination over a channel through the use of a transmitter and receiver. To derive a theoretically optimal solution, the transmitter and receiver can be divided into several processing blocks, with each component analyzed and optimized. The idea of machine learning (or deep learning) communications systems goes back to the original definition of the communi-cation problem, and optimizes the transmitter and receiver jointly. Although today's systems have been optimized over the last decades, and it seems difficult to compete with their performance, deep learning based communication is attractive owing to its simplicity and the fact that it can learn to communicate over any type of channel without the need for mathematical modeling or analysis.

천리안 위성영상(MI)과 Landsat-8 위성영상(OLI, TIRS)을 이용한 화산재 정보 산출: 사쿠라지마 화산의 사례연구

최윤호,이원진,박순천,선종선,이덕기,Choi, Yoon-Ho,Lee, Won-Jin,Park, Sun-Cheon,Sun, Jongsun,Lee, Duk Kee 대한원격탐사학회 2017 大韓遠隔探査學會誌 Vol.33 No.5

화산재는 화산쇄설물 중 2 mm 이하의 크기를 가지는 작은 미세 암편으로 화산 분화 이후 낙하에 의해 여러 가지 피해를 가져온다. 화산재 피해는 운송업과 생산업 그리고 동 식물 및 인간의 호흡기 활동에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 화산재의 피해를 예방하기 위해서는 화산재 확산 정보가 중요하며 광범위하게 확산되는 화산재 관측은 위성을 활용하는 것이 효과적이다. 본 연구에서는 일본 사쿠라지마 화산의 두 번의 분화 사례를 연구하였으며 정지궤도 위성인 천리안 위성(Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite: COMS)의 기상 탑재체(Meteorological Imager: MI) 영상과 극궤도 위성인 Landsat-8의 Operational Land Imager (OLI), Thermal InfraRed Sensor (TIRS) 영상을 활용하여 화산재 확산 정보를 산출하였다. COMSMI 영상으로부터 화산재 화소를 추출하여 화산재의 확산 방향과 속도를 분석하였으며, Landsat-8 영상에 대하여 그림자 측정법을 적용하여 화산재 높이를 산출하였다. 또한 본 연구에서 산출된 결과를 도쿄 화산재 주의보센터(Volcanic Ash Advisories center: VAAC)와 비교하였다. 비교 결과, 화산재 확산의 방향은 두 연구에서 모두 유사한 방향으로 산출되었으나 화산재 속도는 화산재주의보센터에서 제공되는 속도에 비해 약 4배 느리게 산출되었다. 또한, 화산재 높이는 화산재 주의보센터 정보에서는 단일 값으로 제공되지만 본 연구에서는 화산재 확산위치에 따라 다르게 관측됨을 확인하였다. VAAC의 경우 화산 분화의 빠른 대응을 위해 분화구 주변 지역에 대해 대략적 값을 산정하지만 본 연구에서는 화산재 확산이 중요하기 때문에 실제 화산재 확산이 관측된 다양한 영상으로부터 화산재가 확산된 전체 지역에 대한 정보를 산출하였기 때문에 차이가 발생하였을 것으로 판단된다. 대규모 분화가 발생할 경우 한반도에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해서는 화산재 확산 관측이 중요하다. 본 연구를 통해 서로 다른 특성을 지니는 위성영상을 활용하여 화산재가 확산된 전체 영역에 대해 다양한 정보를 산출하는데 활용될 수 있을 것이다. Volcanic ash is a fine particle smaller than 2 mm in diameters. It falls after the volcanic eruption and causes various damages to transportation, manufacturing industry and respiration of living things. Therefore diffusion information of volcanic ash is highly significant for preventing the damages from it. It is advantageous to utilize satellites for observing the widely diffusing volcanic ash. In this study volcanic ash diffusion information about two eruptions of Mt. Sakurajima were calculated using the geostationary satellite, Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) Meteorological Imager (MI) and polar-orbiting satellite, Landsat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) and the Thermal InfraRed Sensor (TIRS). The direction and velocity of volcanic ash diffusion were analyzed by extracting the volcanic ash pixels from COMS-MI images and the height was retrieved by adjusting the shadow method to Landsat-8 images. In comparison between the results of this study and those of Volcanic Ash Advisories center (VAAC), the volcanic ash tend to diffuse the same direction in both case. However, the diffusion velocity was about four times slower than VAAC information. Moreover, VAAC only provide an ash height while our study produced a variety of height information with respect to ash diffusion. The reason for different results is measured location. In case of VAAC, they produced approximate ash information around volcano crater to rapid response, while we conducted an analysis of the ash diffusion whole area using ash observed images. It is important to measure ash diffusion when large-scale eruption occurs around the Korean peninsula. In this study, it can be used to produce various ash information about the ash diffusion area using different characteristics satellite images.

Lithium accounts for only 0.0017% of the earth crust, and it is produced in geographically limited regions such as South America, the United States, and China. Since the first half of 2017, the price of lithium has been continuously increasing, and with the rapid adoption of electric vehicles, lithium resources are expected to be depleted in the near future. In addition, economic blocs worldwide face intensifying scenarios such as competition for technological supremacy and protectionism of domestic industries. Consequently, Korea is deepening its dependence on China for core materials and is vulnerable to the influence of the United States Inflation Reduction Act. We analyze post-lithium secondary battery technologies that rely on more earth-abundant elements to replace lithium, whose production is limited to specific regions. Specifically, we focus on the technological status and issues of sodium-ion, zinc-air, and redox-flow batteries. In addition, research trends in post-lithium secondary batteries are examined. Post-lithium secondary batteries seem promising for large-capacity energy storage systems while reducing the costs of raw materials compared with existing lithium-based technologies.

Recently, with the trend of information technology convergence and electrification, batteries are being widely used in fields such as industry, transportation, and specific applications. By 2030, the secondary battery market is expected to grow explosively by more than eight times compared with 2020 to $351.7 billion owing to the expanding adoption of electric vehicles. Depending on the electrochemical reactions in the electrode, a primary battery can only discharge through an irreversible reaction, while a secondary battery can be repeatedly charged and discharged using reversible reactions. According to the type of charge carrier ions, secondary batteries may be classified into those made of lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, and aluminum ions. We analyze the current status and technological issues of lithium-ion batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries, and solid-state batteries, which are representative examples of lithium secondary batteries. In addition, research trends in lithium secondary batteries are discussed.

본 연구에서는 대상유역을 지표면과 하천 격자로 분할한 후, Manning 식을 기반으로 각 격자 중심에서 유역 출구점까지의 유하시간을 계산하여 등시간별 체적유량을 산정하였으며, 이로부터 유역의 동수역학적 특성인 특성유속을 고려한 직접유출수문 곡선을 도출하였다. 대상유역은 보청천유역의 산성유역을 선정하였다. 대상유역에 대한 매개변수 산정 결과 흐름누적값은 3800, K는 3.3으로 결정되었다. 보정된 매개변수를 실제사상에 대해 적용하여 검증한 결과 첨두유량과 첨두시간의 평균 절대오차는 각각 3.41%, 0.67 hr로 비교적 양호한 모의결과를 나타냈다. 또한 유효우량에 따른 유하시간별 기여면적 주상도를 분석한 결과 본 연구에서 적용된 모형은 강우강도에 따른 유역의 수리학적 특성을 잘 표현하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. In this study, after the target basin was divided into both overland and channel grids, the travel time from center of each grid cell to watershed`s outlet was calculated based on the manning equation. Through this process, volumetric discharge was calculated according to the isochrones and finally, the direct runoff hydrograph was estimated considering watershed`s hydrodynamic characteristics. Sanseong subwatershed located in main stream of Bocheong basin was selected as a target basin. The model parameters are only two: area threshold and channel velocity correction factor; the optimized values were estimated at 3,800 and 3.3, respectively. The developed model based on the tuned parameters led to well-matching results between observed and calculated hydrographs (mean of absolute error of peak discharge: 3.41%, mean of absolute error of peak time: 0.67 hr). Moreover, the analysis results regarding histogram of travel time-contribution area demonstrates that the proposed model characterizes relatively well hydrodynamic characteristics of the catchment due to effective rainfall.

As the scale of research and development (R&D) increases, countries and companies are consistently establishing R&D directions to meet strategic goals and market demands as well as roadmaps to increase efficiency through concentration and selection. However, establishing an effective roadmap and discovering promising technologies are challenging under the current numerous technological possibilities and uncertainties. The importance of discovering promising technologies to secure future technological competitiveness is recognized worldwide, and Europe, the United States, and Japan are establishing processes to identify promising future technologies and support related R&D. Methods for discovering promising future technologies can be classified into future social needs analysis, forecasting, surveys, use of expert opinions, and data analysis. We describe the types and limitations of technology roadmaps and investigate the status of domestic and foreign organizations using weak signal search through quantitative data analysis.

Recently, concerns of water pollution and health risks caused by synthetic detergents have emerged, as the use of various detergents has increased It has been suggested that some surfactants are cocarcinogens. The surfactants tested were linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, sodium lauryl sulfate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleat (tween 80), and the mutagens were 1-nitropyrene, N -methyl- N'-nitro-N -nitrosoguanidine, benzo (a) pyrene, and aflatoxin B$_1$. This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of surfactants on the activity of mytagens using the Ames mutagenic assay with Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100. The results were summarized as follows: 1. The surfactants have no mutagenic activity of themselves. 2. Higher doses of surfactants than 100 $\mu\textrm{g}$/plate reduced the number of revertants. It is assumed that the reduction would inhibited cell growth. 3. When the comutagenic ratio is defined as the ratio between mutagenic activity itself and the activity with mutagen and surfactant (drinking water quality standard), LAS showed the comutagenic ratio 0.86-1.17 and SLS 0.74-1.10 as well. According to the comparisons, it could not be recognised for the comutagenicity of drinking water quality standard of surfactant. 4. As increasing the amount of mutagens, the designated amount of surfactant did not affected the mutagen's activity statistically. From the above result, syunthetic surfactants do not present mutagenicity and comutagenicity in the microbial assay.

A three dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes code is developed to analyze flowfields and performance of a vaned diffuser in a centrifugal compressor. It employs scalar implicit approximate factorization, finite volume formulation, second order upwind differencing and a two-equation $q-{\omega}$ turbulence model based on the integration to the wall. Pressure recovery and loss coefficients of a vaned diffuser are evaluated using a developed computer code. The simulated three dimensional flows show how through flow structure affects pressure recovery performance and loss coefficients of a vane for design and off-design inlet flow angles. Development of complex three dimensional flow over the inlet region and leading edge are very influential to the overall flow and performance.
