  • Ceramics of quaternary garnets (Gd,Y)3Al2Ga3O12 doped with Ce, Tb have been fabricated and evaluated as prospective materials for indirect energy converters of α-and β-voltaic. Samples were characterized at excitation with an X-ray source and an intense 150 keV electron beam and showed good temperature stability of their emission and tolerance to irradiation. The role of X-rays accompanied the α-particle emitting in the increase of the conversion efficiency is clarified. The garnet-type structure of the matrix in the developed materials allows the production of quality crystalline mass with a light yield exceeding that of the commonly used YAG: Ce scintillator by a factor of two times.

  • 수평 전기로에서 CuGaTe2 다결정을 합성하여 HWE 방법으로 CuGaTe2 단결정 박막을 반절연성 GaAs(100) 위에 성장하였다. CuGaTe2 단결정 박막은 증발원과 기판의 온도를 각각 67$0^{\circ}C$, 41$0^{\circ}C$로 성장하였다. 이때 단결정 박막의 결정성이 10K에서 측정한 광발광 스펙트럼은 954.5nm (1.2989eV) 근처에서 exciton emission 스펙트럼이 가장 강하게 나타났으며, 또한 이중결정 X-선 요동곡선(DCRC)의 반폭치(FWHM)도 139arcsec로 가장 작게 측정되어 최적 성장 조건임을 알 수 있었다. Hall 효과는 van der Paw방법에 의해 측정되었으며, 온도에 의존하는 운반자 농도와 이동도는 293K에서 각각 8.72$\times$$10^{23}$개/㎥, 3.42$\times$$10^{-2}$$m^2$/V.s였다. 상온에서 CuGaTe2 단결정 박막의 광흡수 특성으로부터 에너지 띠간격이 1.22 eV였다 Band edge에 해당하는 광전도도peak의 온도 의존성은 Varshni 관계식으로 설명되었으며, Varshni 관계식의 상수값은 Eg(0) = 1.3982 eV, $\alpha$= 4.27$\times$$10^{-4}$ eV/K, $\beta$= 265.5 K로 주어졌다.

  • Previously, a 50% aqueous methanol extract of Galla rhois was shown to be the most potent tyrosinase inhibition activity with an {TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}(the concentration causing 50% inhibition of tyrosinase activity) of 0.2mg/ml of 205 crude drug extracts. To isolate tyrosinase inhibitors, the methanol extract was evaporated to a small volume in vacuo, and then partitioned stepwise with benzene and ethyl acetate(EtOAc). the EtOAc fraction was solubilized in 10% MeOH solution, and then fractionated successively by Diaion HP-20 and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and preparative HPLC. Three phenolic compounds were isolated, and characterized as gallic acid(GA), methyl gallate(MG) and 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-$\beta$-D-glucose(PGG) by UV, IR, {TEX}${1}^H${/TEX}-&{TEX}${13}^C${/TEX}-NMR, and FAB-MS spectroscopy, PGG({TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}=50$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) showed a considerable inhibitory effect against mushroom tyrosinase, while GA({TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}=1.6mg/ml) and MG({TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}=234$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) did not show an appreciable effect. Meanwhile, MG inhibited greatly melanogenesis in a murine melanocyte cell line, Mel-Ab. MG and PGG showed typical noncompetitive inhibition patterns against mushroom tyrosinase. These results suggest that PGG and MG may be potentially useful as either anti-browning or anti-melanogenic agents in foods and cosmetics.

  • The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the $CuGaTe_2$single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnance. Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns for the $CuGaTe_2$polycrystal, it was found tetragonal structure whose lattice constant $a_0 and c_0$ were 6.025 $\AA$ and 11.931 $\AA$, respectively. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuGaTe_2$mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched semi-insulator GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $670^{\circ}C$ and $410^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the thickness of the single crystal thin films is 2.1$\mu\textrm{m}$. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). Hall effect on this sample was measured by the method of van der Pauw and studied on carrier density and mobility dependence on temperature. The carrier density and mobility of $CuGaTe_2$single crystal thin films deduced from Hall data are $8.72{\times}10{23}$$\textrm m^3$, $3.42{\times}10^{-2}$ $\textrm m^2$/V.s at 293K, respectively. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the $CuGaTe_2$single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit coupling $\Delta$s.o and the crystal field splitting $\Delta$cr were 0.0791 eV and 0.2463 eV at 10 K, respectively. From the PL spectra at 10 K, the peaks corresponding to free bound excitons and D-A pair and a broad emission band due to SA is identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be 0.0470 eV and the dissipation energy of the donor-bound exciton and acceptor-bound exciton to be 0.0490 eV, 0.0558 eV, respectively.

  • The combination of nanoparticle with radioisotope could give the in vivo information with high sensitivity and specificity. However, radioisotope labeling of nanoparticle is very difficult and radioisotopes have different physicochemical properties, so the radioisotope selection of nanoparticle should be carefully considered. $^{18}F$ was first option to be considered for labeling of nanoparticle. For the labeling of $^{18}F$ with nanoparticle, Prosthetic group is widely used. Iodine, another radioactive halogen, is often used. Since radioiodine isotopes are various, they can be used for different imaging technique or therapy in the same labeling procedures. $^{99m}Tc$ can easily be obtained as pertechnatate ($^{99m}{TcO_4}^-$) by commercial generator. Ionic $^{68}Ga$ (III) in dilute HCl solution is also obtained by generator system, but $^{68}Ga$ can be substituted for $^{67}Ga$ because of the short half-life (67.8 min). $^{64}Cu$ emits not only positron but also ${\beta}-particle$. Therefore $^{64}Cu$ can be used for imaging and therapy at the same time. These radioactive metals can be labeled with nanoparticle using the bifunctional chelator. $^{89}Zr$ has longer half-life (78.4 h) and is used for the longer imaging time. Unlike different metals, $^{89}Zr$ should use the other chelate such as DFO, 3,4,3-(LI-1,2-HOPO) or DFOB.

  • The synthesis of pure and rare-earth doped gallium oxide (${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$) nanoparticles is reported. The synthesized nanoparticles are characterized with XRD, TEM, and PL analyses. Strong blue emission is observed from un-doped gallium oxide nanoparticles, while nanoparticles doped with $Eu^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$ give strong red and green emissions, respectively. When doped with $Eu^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$ together, gallium oxide nanoparticles emit white light. The CIE coordinate of the emitted light was found to be (0.33, 0.33), which is well within the white light region.

  • Objectives : The primary purpose of this study was to examine the effect of manual acupuncture at the $LI_4$, $ST_{36}$ and $LR_3$ on normal human EEG (Electroencephalogram). And the secondary purpose of this study was to analyze the relationships between the change of EEG wave form using correlation analysis. Methods : 32 channel EEG measurement was carried out in 25 healthy participants (23 males and 2 females). EEG was measured for 21 minutes including 15 minutes of retention time. In this study, power spectrum was used as a measure of complexity. Statistical analysis was performed using Spearman correlation. Results : The results were as follows; 1. In C4, O1, Fz, Pz, Cz, FCz, CP4, FC4, TP7, FT7 among 32 electrodes, ${\delta}$, $\theta$ and ${\beta}$ wave increased during 0-3 time intervals, and especially in case of TP7, FT7 ${\alpha}$ wave spontaneously decreased during 12~15 time intervals in manipulation group. 2. Between $\theta$ and ${\beta}$ wave and $\theta$ and ${\delta}$ wave, there was statistically significant positive correlation in C4, O1, Fz, Pz, Cz, FCz, CP4, FC4, TP7, FT7 according to Spearman correlation analysis. 3. Between ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ wave, there was statistically significant positive correlation in TP7, FT7 according to Spearman correlation analysis. Conclusions : These results suggest that TP7 and FT7 could be typical electrodes representing change of EEG after manipulated acupuncture at the $LI_4$, $ST_{36}$ and $LR_3$. The relationships between the change of EEG wave form appear to have statistically significant positive correlation between $\theta$ and ${\beta}$ wave, $\theta$ and ${\delta}$ wave and ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ wave.
