Purpose: Mumps is an infectious viral disease that often results in painful swelling of testis preceded by parotitis. We report multicenter data on mumps orchitis from five community hospitals. Materials and Methods: From January 2011 to December 2012, 98 patients diagnosed with acute mumps orchitis were treated at five community hospitals in different districts of Korea. As a report on an outbreak of mumps orchitis, age, bilaterality, monthly occurrence frequency, and vaccination status were recorded retrospectively. Results: The mean age of the 98 patients was 19.7 (range from 10 to 38) years old. Age distribution of patients included 60 teens (61.2%), 31 in their twenties (31.6%), and seven in their thirties (7.2%). No evidence of a previous mumps vaccination was found in medical records from six patients (6.1%), and the vaccination status of one patient was unknown. Bilateral orchitis was noted in eight patients (8.2%), and 90 patients (91.8%) had unilateral orchitis. Right-sided orchitis was noted in 50 patients (51.0%), and left-sided orchitis was noted in 40 patients (40.8%). Autumn (September to November) was the most prevalent season, with 35 outbreaks (35.7%). Seasonal outbreaks occurred in 13 patients (13.2%) in spring (3rd- 5th), 24 patients (24.7%) in summer (6th-8th), and 26 patients (26.4%) in winter (12th-2nd). Conclusions: In spite of continued vaccination, mumps orchitis is still a prevalent disease. Therefore, due to a large number of outbreaks, mumps orchitis should still be considered, especially in teenagers and during autumn season. Conduct of additional long-term follow-up and large prospective studies is needed in Korea.

Bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC) is a chronic disease. Symptoms of IC are often exacerbated by bladder filling and are associated with various urinary symptoms. IC is diagnosed by exclusion steps for differentiation from other confusable diseases. The pathophysiology and etiology of BPS/IC is not completely understood. IC is generally assumed to involve changes in the bladder wall as well as alterations in both structural abnormality of pain processing and its modulation. Alterations of the bladder wall at the molecular and structural levels in urothelium along with their adjacent structures have been observed in human patients. Bladder nerves, urothelial cells, and smooth muscles are likely to play an important role through active communication with the immune and inflammatory systems. This review provides recent information on patients with PBS/IC and their abnormalities within the bladder.

We studied growth and characterization of $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$ (SBT) thin films fabricated by low temperature process under vacuum and/or oxygen ambient. A metal organic decomposition (MOD) method based on a spin-on technique and annealing process using a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) method was used to prepare the SBT films. The crystallinity of a ferroelectric phase of SBT thin films is related to the oxygen partial pressure during RTA process. Under an oxygen partial pressure higher than 30 Torr, the crystallization temperature inducing the ferroelectric SBT phase can be lowered to $650^{\circ}C$. Those films annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ in vacuum and oxygen ambient showed good ferroelectric properties, that is, the memory window of 0.5~0.9 V at applied voltage of 3~7 V and the leakage current density of 1.80{\times}10^{-8}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 5V. In comparison with the SBT thin films prepared at 80$0^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ ambient by furnace annealing process, the SBT thin films prepared at $650^{\circ}C$ in vacuum and oxygen ambient using the RTA process showed a good crystallization and electrical properties which would be able to apply to the virtul device fabrication precess.

The $SrBi_2$$Nb_2$$O_{9}$ (SBN) thin films were deposited with $SrNb_2$$O_{6}$ / (SNO) and $Bi_2$$O_3$ targets by co-sputtering method. For the growth of SBN thin films, we adopted the various power ratios of two targets; the power ratios of the SNO target to $Bi_2$$O_3$ target were 100 W : 20 W, 100 W : 25 W, and 100 W : 30 W during sputtering the SBN films. We found that the electrical properties of SBN films were greatly dependent on Bi content in films. The $Bi_2$Pt and $Bi_2$$O_3$ phase as second phases occurred at the films with excess Bi content greater than 2.4, resulting in poor ferroelectric properties. The best growth condition of the SBN films was obtained at the power ratio of 100 W : 25 W for the two targets. At this condition, the crystallinity and electrical properties of the films were improved at even low annealing temperature as $700^{\circ}C$ for 1h in oxygen ambient and the Sr, Bi and Nb component in the SBN films were about 0.9, 2.4, and 1.8 respectively. From the P-E and I-V curves for the specimen, the remnant polarization value ($2P_{r}$) of the SBN films was obtained about 6 $\mu$C/c $m^2$ at 250 kV/cm and the leakage current density of this thin film was $2.45$\times$10^{-7}$ $A/cm^2$ at an applied voltage of 3 V.V.

세라믹 타겟인 Sr$_2$Nb$_2$O$_{7}$ (SNO)과 Bi$_2$O$_3$을 장착한 RF-마그네트론 스퍼터링을 이용하여 SrBi$_2$Nb$_2$O$_{9}$ (SBN) 박막을 p-type Si(100) 기판 위에 증착하였다. 증착시 두 타겟의 파워비를 조절하여 조성의 변화에 따른 SBN 박막의 구조적 및 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 증착된 SBN 박막은 $700^{\circ}C$의 산소분위기에서 1시간 동안 열처리를 하였으며 상부전극으로 Pt를 증착한 후 산소분위기에서 30분 동안 $700^{\circ}C$에서 전극 후열처리를 실시하였다. 증착된 SBN 박막은 $700^{\circ}C$ 열터리 후에 페로브스카이트 상을 나타냈으며 SNO 타겟과 Bi$_2$O$_3$타겟의 파워가 120 W/100 W 일 때 가장 좋은 전기적 특성을 나타내었다. 이때의 조성은 EPMA(Electron Probe X-ray Micro Analyzer) 분석을 통하여 확인하였으며 Sr:Bi:Nb의 비가 약 1:3:2임을 나타내었다. 이러한 과잉의 Bi조성을 가진 SBN 박막은 3-9 V의 인가전압에서 1.8 V-6.3 V의 우수한 메모리 윈도우 값을 나타내었으며 누설전류 값은 인가전압 5 V에서 1.54$\times$$10^{-7}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$였다. The SrBi$_2$Nb$_2$O$_{9}$ (SBN) thin films were deposited on p-type(100) Si substrates by rf magnetron sputtering to confirm the Possibility of Pt/SBN/Si structure for the application of nondestructive read out ferroelectric random access memory (NDRO- FRAM). The SBN thin films were deposited by co-sputtering method with Sr$_2$Nb$_2$O$_{7}$ (SNO) and Bi$_2$O$_3$ ceramic targets. The SBN thin films deposited at room temperature were annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 1hr in $O_2$ ambient. The structural and electrical properties of SBN with different power ratios of targets were measured by x-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), capacitance-voltage(C-V), and current-voltage(I-V). The C-V curves of the SBN films showed hysteresis curves of a clockwise rotation showing ferroelectricity. When the Power ratio of the SNO/Bi$_2$O$_3$ targets was 120 W/100 W, the SBN thin films had excellent electrical properties. The memory window of SBN thin film was 1.8 V-6.3 V at applied voltage of 3 V-9 V and the leakage current density was 1.5 $\times$ 10$^{-7}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at applied voltage of 5 V The composition of SBN thin films was analysed by electron probe X-ray micro analyzer(EPMA) and the atomic ratio of Sr:Bi:Nb with pawer ratio of 120 W/100 W was 1:3:2.

In this work, $IrO_2$thin films as bottom electrode of ferroelectric capacitors were deposited and characterized. The $IrO_2$films deposited in the conditions of 25, 40 and 50% oxygen ambient by sputtering method were annealed at 600, 700 and $800^{\circ}C$, respectively. It was found that the crystallinity and the surface morphology of $IrO_2$films affected the surface properties and electrical properties of SBT thin films prepared by the MOD method. With increasing temperature, the crystallinity and the roughness of $IrO_2$films were also increasing. This increasing of roughness degraded the surface properties and electrical properties of SBT films. We found an optimum condition of $IrO_2$films as bottom electrode for ferroelectric capacitor at 50% oxygen ambient and $600^{\circ}C$ annealing temperature. Electrical characterizations were performed by using$ IrO_2$bottom electrodes grown at an optimum conditions. The remanent polarization ($P_{r}$) of the Pt/SBT/$IrO_2$/$SiO_2$/Si structure was 2.75 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 3 V. The leakage current density was $1.06${\times}$10^{-3}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 3 V.

세라믹 타겟인 Ta$_2$O(sub)5을 장착한 rf-마그네트론 스퍼터를 이용하여 Ta$_2$O(sub)5 완충층을 증착하고, Sr(sub)0.8Bi(sub)2.4Ta$_2$O(sbu)9 용액을 사용하여 MOD 법에 의해 SBT 막을 성장시킨 metal/ferroelectric/insulator/semiconductor (MFIS) 구조인 Pt/SBT/Ta$_2$O(sub)5/Si 구조의 Ta$_2$O(sub)5 완충층 증착시의 $O_2$유량비, Ta$_2$O(sub)5 완충층 두께에 따른 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 그리고 Ta$_2$O(sub)5 박막의 완충층으로써의 효과를 확인하기 위해 Pt/SBT/Ta$_2$O(sub)5/Si 구조와 Pt/SBT/Si 구조의 전기적 특성을 비교하였다. Ta$_2$O(sub)5 완충층 증착시의 $O_2$유량비가 0%일 때는 전형적인 MFIS 구조의 C-V 특성을 얻지 못하였으며, 20%의 $O_2$유량비일 때 가장 큰 메모리 윈도우 값을 얻었다. 그리고 $O_2$유량비가 40%, 60%로 증가할수록 메모리 윈도우는 감소하였다. Ta$_2$O(sub)5 완충층의 두께의 변화에 대한 C-V 특성에서는 36nm의 Ta$_2$O(sub)5 두께에서 가장 큰 메모리 값을 얻었다. Pt/SBT/Si 구조의 메모리 윈도우 값과 누설전류 특성은 Pt/SBT/Ta$_2$O(sub)5/Si 구조의 값에 비해 크게 떨어졌으며, 따라서 Ta$_2$O(sub)5 막이 우수한 완충층으로써의 역할을 함을 알았다. $Ta_2_O5$ and $Sr_0.8Bi_2.4Ta_2O_9$ films were deposited on p-type Si(100) substrates by a rf-magnetron sputtering and the metal organic decomposition (MOD), respectively.The electrical characteristics of the $Pt/SBT/Ta_2O_5/Si$ structure were obtained as the functions of $O_2$ gas flow ratio during the $Ta_2_O5$ sputtering and $Ta_2_O5$ thickness. And to certify the role of $Ta_2_O5$ as a buffer layer, the electrical characteristics of $Pt/SBT/Ta_2O_5/Si$ were compared. $Pt/SBT/Ta_2O_5/Si$ capacitor with 20% $O_2$ gas flow ratio during the $Ta_2_O5$ sputtering did now show typical C-V curve of metal/ferroelectric/insulator/semiconductor (MFIS) structure. The capacitor with 20% $O_2$ gas flow ratio during the $Ta_2_O5$ sputtering had the largest memory window. And the memory window was decreased as the $Ta_2_O5$ gas flow ratio during the $Ta_2_O5$ sputtering was increased to 40%, 60%. In the C-V characteristics of the $Pt/SBT/Ta_2O_5/Si$ capacitors with the different $Ta_2_O5$ thickness, the capacitor with 26nm thickness of $Ta_2_O5$ had the largest memory window. The C-V and leakage current characteristics of the Pt/SBT/Si structure were worse than those of $Pt/SBT/Ta_2O_5/Si$ structure. These results and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) measurement showed that $Ta_2_O5$ films as a buffer layer tool a role to prevent from the formation of intermediate phase and interdiffusion between SBT and Si.

$SrBi_2Nb_2O_9(SBN)$ thin films were grown on Pt/Ti/Si and p-type Si(100) substrates by rf-magnetron co-sputtering method using two ceramic targets, $SrNb_2O_6\; and \;Bi_2O_3$. The structural and electrical characteristics have been investigated to confirm the possibility of the SBN thin films for the applications to destructive and nondestructive read out ferroelectric random access memory(FRAM). For the optimum growth condition X-ray diffraction patterns showed that SBN films had well crystallized Bi-layered perovskite structure after $700^{\circ}C$ heat-treatment in furnace. From this specimen we got remnant polarization $(2P_r)$ of about 6 uC/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and coercive voltage $(V_c)$ of about 1.5 V at an applied voltage of 5 V. The leakage current density was $7.6{\times}10^{-7}$/A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 5V. And for the NDRO-FRAM application, properties of SBN films on Si substrate has been investigated. From transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis, we found the furnace treated sample had a native oxide about 2 times thicker than the RTA treated sample and this thick native oxide layer had a bad effect on C-V characteristics of SBN/Si thin film. After $650^{\circ}C$ RTA process, we got the improved memory window of 1.3 V at an applied voltage of 5 V.

RF magnetron sputtering 법으로 T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ 세라믹 타겟과 S $r_2$N $b_2$ $O_{7}$ 세라믹 타겟을 동시 sputtering하여 저유전율 S $r_2$(T $a_{1-x}$ , N $b_{x}$)$_2$ $O_{7}$(STNO) 박막을 p-type Si (100) 기판 위에 증착하여 NDRO 강유전체 메모리 (Non-destructive read out ferro-electric random access memory)에 사용되는 Pt/STNO/Si (MFS) 구조의 응용 가능성을 확인하였다. Sr$_2$Nb$_2$ $O_{7} (SN O)$ 타겟과 T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ 타겟의 출력의 비를 100w/100w, 70w/100w, 그리고 50w/100w로 조절하면서 x 값을 달리하여 조성을 변화시켰다. 성장된 박막을 8$50^{\circ}C$, 90$0^{\circ}C$, 그리고 9$50^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 동안 산소 분위기에서 열처리하였다. 조성과 열처리 온도에 따른 구조적 특징을 XRD에 의해 관찰하였으며 표면특성은 FE-SBM에 의해 관찰하였고, C-V 측정과 I-V 측정으로 박막의 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. SNO 타겟과 T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ 타켓의 출력비에 따른 STNO 박막의 성장 결과 70W/170W의 출력비에서 성장된 STNO박막에서 Ta의 양이 상대적 맡은 x=0.4였으며 가장 우수한 C-V 특성 및 누설 전류 특성을 보였다. 이 조성에서 성장된 STNO박막은 3-9V외 인가전압에서 메모리 윈도우 갑이 0.5-8.3V였고 누설전류밀도는 -6V의 인가전압에서 7.9$\times$10$_{-8}$A /$\textrm{cm}^2$였다. In this paper, theS $r_2$(T $a_{1-x}$ , N $b_{x}$)$_2$ $O_{7}$(STNO) films among ferroelectric materials having a low dielectric constant for metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor field effect transistor(MFS-FET) were discussed. The STNO thin films were deposited on p-type Si(100) at room temperature by co-sputtering with S $r_2$N $b_2$ $O_{7(SNO)}$ ceramic target and T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ ceramic target. The composition of STNO thin films was varied by adjusting the power ratios of SNO target and T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ target. The STNO films were annealed at 8$50^{\circ}C$, 90$0^{\circ}C$ and 9$50^{\circ}C$ temperature in oxygen ambient for 1 hour. The value of x has significantly influenced the structure and electrical properties of the STNO films. In the case of x= 0.4, the crystallinity of the STNO films annealed at 9$50^{\circ}C$ was observed well and the memory windows of the Pt/STNO/Si structure were 0.5-8.3 V at applied voltage of 3-9 V and leakage current density was 7.9$\times$10$_{08}$A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at applied voltage of -5V.of -5V.V.V.
