Cytochrome P450 14${\alpha}$-sterol demethylase enzyme (CYP51) is the target a of azole type antifungals. The azole blocks the ergosterol synthesis and thereby inhibits fungal growth. A three-dimensional (3D) homology model of CYP51 from Candida albicans was constructed based on the X-ray crystal structure of CYP51 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Using this model, the binding modes for the substrate (24-methylene-24, 25-dihydrolanosterol) and the known inhibitors (fluconazole, voriconazole, oxiconazole, miconazole) were predicted from docking. Virtual screening was performed employing Structure Based Focusing (SBF). In this procedure, the pharmacophore models for database search were generated from the protein-ligands interactions each other. The initial structure-based virtual screening selected 15 compounds from a commercial available 3D database of approximately 50,000 molecule library, Being evaluated by a cell-based assay, 5 compounds were further identified as the potent inhibitors of Candida albicans CYP51 (CACYP51) with low minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) range. BMD-09-01${\sim}$BMD-09-04 MIC range was 0.5 ${\mu}$g/ml and BMD-09-05 was 1 ${\mu}$g/ml. These new inhibitors provide a basis for some non-azole antifungal rational design of new, and more efficacious antifungal agents.

Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) have ice binding affinity, depress freezing temperature and inhibit ice recystallization which protect cellular membranes in polar organisms. Recent structural studies of antifreeze proteins have significantly expanded our understanding of the structure-function relationship and ice crystal growth inhibition. Although AFPs (Type I-IV AFP from fish, insect AFP and Plant AFP) have completely different fold and no sequence homology, they share a common feature of their surface area for ice binding property. The conserved ice-binding sites are relatively flat and hydrophobic. For example, Type I AFP has an amphipathic, single ${\alpha}$-helix and has regularly spaced Thr-Ala residues which make direct interaction with oxygen atoms of ice crystals. Unlike Type I AFP, Type II and III AFP are compact globular proteins that contain a flat ice-binding patch on the surface. Type II and Type III AFP show a remarkable structural similarity with the sugar binding lectin protein and C-terminal domain of sialic acid synthase, respectively. Type IV is assumed to form a four-helix bundle which has sequence similarity with apolipoprotein. The results of our modeling suggest an ice-binding induced structural change of Type IV AFP. Insect AFP has ${\beta}$-helical structure with a regular array of Thr-X-Thr motif. Threonine residues of each Thr-X-Thr motif fit well into the ice crystal lattice and provide a good surface-surface complementarity. This review focuses on the structural characteristics and details of the ice-binding mechanism of antifreeze proteins.

The phase sequence of codeposited Co-Si alloy and Co/si multilayer thin film was investigated by differential scanning calormetry(DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, The phase sequence in codeposition and codeposited amorphous Co-Si alloy thin film were CoSilongrightarrow Co2Si and those in Co/Si multilayer thin film were CoSilongrightarrowCo2Silongrightarrow and CoSilongrightarrowCo2Si longrightarrowCoSilongrightarrowCoSi2 with the atomic concentration ration of Co to Si layer being 2:1 and 1:2 respectively. The observed phase sequence was analyzed by the effectvie heat of formatin . The phase determining factor (PDF) considering structural facotr in addition to the effectvie heat of formation was used to explain the difference in the first crystalline phase between codeposition, codeposited amorphous Co-Si alloy thin film and Co/Si multilayer thin film. The crystallinity of Co-silicide deposited by multitarget bias cosputter deposition (MBCD) wasinvestigated as a funcion of deposition temperature and substrate bias voltage by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and epitaxial CoSi2 layer was grown at $200^{\circ}C$ . Parameters, Ear, $\alpha$(As), were calculate dto quantitatively explain the low temperature epitaxial grpwth of CoSi2 layer. The phase sequence and crystallinity had a stronger dependence on the substrate bias voltage than on the deposition temperature due to the collisional daxcade mixing, in-situ cleannin g, and increase in the number of nucleation sites by ion bombardment of growing surface.

기존 메모리 반도체에 비교해 빠른 재생속도와 높은 집적도, 비휘발성 등의 특성을 가지는 MRAM (Magnetic Random Access Memory)은 DRAM, flash memory 등을 대체할 수 있는 차세대 기억 소자로서 CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB로 구성된 한 개의 MTJ (Magnetic Tunnel Junction)를 단위 메모리로 사용한다. 이 MTJ 물질들은 고밀도 플라즈마를 이용한 건식 식각공정시 Cl2, BCl3 등과 같은 chlorine 을 포함한 가스를 이용하여 왔으나 식각 후 sidewall에서 발생하는 부식과 식각 선택비 확보의 어려움 등으로 마스크 물질에 제약을 받고 소자 특성이 감소하게 되는 등의 문제가 있다. 따라서 이러한 식각 문제점을 해결하기 위한 대안으로 noncorrosive 가스인 CO/NH3, CH3OH, CH4 등을 이용한 MTJ 식각 연구가 진행되어 오고 있으며 이중 CO/NH3 혼합가스는 부식성이 없고 hard mask와의 높은 선택비를 가지는 기체로 CO gas에 NH3 gas를 첨가하게 되면 etch rate이 증가하는 특성을 보인다. 또한 rf pulse-biased power를 이용하여 이온의 입사를 시간에 따라 제어함으로써 pulse off time 때 etch gas와 MTJ 물질간의 chemical reaction을 향상시킬 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 CO/NH3 혼합가스를 이용하여 다양한 rf pulse-biased power 조건에서 MTJ 물질인 CoFeB, MgO와 hard mask 물질인 W을 식각 한 뒤 식각특성을 분석하였으며 MTJ surface의 chemical binding state, surface roughness 측정을 진행하였다. 식각 샘플의 측정은 Alpha step profiler, XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy)를 통해 진행되었다. Time-averaged pulse bias에서는 duty ratio가 감소할수록 etch rate의 큰 감소 없이 CoFeB/W, MgO/W 물질의 etch selectivity가 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었으며 pulse off time 구간에서의 chemical reaction 향상으로 인해 식각부산물의 재증착이 감소하고 CoFeB의 surface roughness가 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

We report the crystallization and magnetic properties of non-equilibrium $Al_{0.6}(Fe_{x}Cu_{1-x})_{0.4}(x=0.25, 0.50, 0.75)$ alloy powders produced by rod-milling as well as by new chemical leaching. X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and vibrating sample magnetometry were used to characterize the as-milled and leached specimens. After 400 h or 500 h milling, only the broad peaks of nano bcc crystalline phases were detected in the XRD patterns. The crystallite size, the peak and the crystallization temperatures increased with increasing Fe. After being annealed at $600{^\circ}C$ for 1 h for as-milled alloy powders, the peaks of bcc $AlCu_{4}\;and\;Al_{13}Cu_{4}Fe_{3}\;for\;x=0.25,\;bcc\;AlCu_{4}\;and\;Al_{5}Fe_{2}\;for\;x=0.50,\;and\;Al_{5}Fe_{2},\;and\;Al_{0.5}Fe_{0.5}\;for\;x=0.75$ are observed. After being annealed at $500{^\circ}\;and\;600{^\circ}C$for 1 h for leached specimens, these non-equi-librium phases transformed into fcc Cu and $CuFe_{2}O_{4}$phases for the x=0.25 specimen, and into bcc ${\alpha}-Fe,\;fcc\;Cu,\;and\;CuFe_{2}O_{4}$ phases for both the x=0.50 and the x=0.75 specimens. The saturation magnetization decreased with increasing milling time for $Al_{0.6}(Fe_{x}Cu_{1-x})_{0.4}$ alloy powders. On cooling the leached specimens from $800{\~}850^{\circ}C$,\;the magnetization first sharply increase at about $491.4{\circ}C,\;745{\circ}C,\;and\;750.0{\circ}C$ for x=0.25, x=0.50, and x=0.75 specimens, repectively.

The solid state reaction by mechanical alloying(MA) generally proceeds by lowering the free energy as the result of a chemical reaction at the interface between the two adjacent layers. However, Lee et $al.^{1-5)}$ reported that a mixture of Cu and Ta, the combination of which is characterized by a positive heat of mixing of +2kJ/mol, could be amorphized by mechanical alloying. This implies that there exists an up-hill process to raise the free energy of a mixture of pure Cu and la to that of an amorphous phase. It is our aim to investigate to what extent the MA is capable of producing a non-equilibrium phase with increasing the heat of mixing. The system chosen was the ternary $Cu_{30}Ta_{ 70-x}Mo_ x$ (x=35, 10). The mechanical alloying was carried out using a Fritsch P-5 planetary mill under Ar gas atmosphere. The MA powders were characterized by the X-ray diffraction with Cu-K $\alpha$ radiation, thermal analysis, electron diffraction and TEM micrographs. In the case of x=35, where pure Cu powders were mixed with equal amount of pure Ta and Mo powders, we revealed the formation of bcc solid solution after 150 h milling but its gradual decomposition by releasing fcc-Cu when milling time exceeded 200 h. However, an amorphous phase was clearly formed when the Mo content was lowered to x=10. It is believed that the amorphization of ternary $Cu_{30}Ta_{60}Mo_{10}$ powders is essentially identical to the solid state amorphization process in binary $Cu_{30}Ta_{70}$ powders.

We report the structure, thermal and magnetic properties of a non-equilibrium $Al_{0.6}(Fe_{50}Cu_{50})_{0.4}$ alloy powder produced by rod milling and chemical leaching. An X-ray diffractometry(XRD), a transmission electron microscope(TEM), a differential scanning calorimeter(DSC), a vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM), and superconducting quantum interference device(SQUID) were utilized to characterize the as-milled and leaching specimens. The crystallite size reached a value of about 8.82 nm. In the DSC experiment, the peak temperatures and crystallization temperatures decreased with increasing milling time. The activation energy of crystallization is 200.5 kJ/mole for as-milled alloy powder. The intensities of the XRD peaks of as-milled powders associated with the bcc type $Al_{0.5}Fe_{0.5}$ structure formative at $350^{\circ}C$ sharply increase with increasing annealing temperature. Above $400^{\circ}C$, peaks alloted to $Al_{0.5}Fe_{0.5}$ and $Al_{5}Fe_{2}$ are observed. After annealing at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1h, the leached Ll specimen transformed into bcc $\alpha$-Fe and fcc Cu phases, accompanied by a change in the structural and magnetic properties. The saturation magnetization decreased with increasing milling time, and a value of about 8.42 emu/g was reached at 500 h of milling. The coercivity reached a maximum value of about 142.7 Oe after 500 h of milling. The magnetization of leached specimens as function of fields were higher at 5 K, and increased more sharply at 5 K than at 100 K.

This steel has been synthesized integrating concepts from Austempering Ductile Cast Iron (ADI) technology. While ADI has excellent mechanical and physical properties, the Young's modules of ADI is approximately 20% lower than steel. In addition, the presence of graphite nodules in ADI can be sites of crack initiation, where fracture takes place at graphite matrix interface. Because of this limitations of ADI, there has been a growing interest in austempered steels as structural materials in resent years. In this investigation, a new steel with microstructure composed of ferrite and austenite and with simultaneous high tensile strength (1,150 MPa) and high ductility (33%) was developed. The goal of this investigation is to obtain a better understanding of deformation and transformation behaviour in high carbon retained austenite(${\gamma}_{HC}$) and over-saturated ferrite(${\alpha}$) during the plastic deformation. A detailed study of the microstructure of this steel was carried out by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron back scattering diffraction (EBSD) technic. In this way it was shown that BCC phase (BCC) took up the larger part of the nominal strain whereas the a part of retained austenite responded to the mechanincal load by partial martensite transformation, and misorientation change in the retained austenite after plastic strain could be attributed to the large elongation.
