G $d_{0.2}$C $e_{0.8}$ $O_{1.9}$(CGO) for electrolyte and L $a_{0.5}$S $r_{0.5}$Mn $O_3$(LSM50) for cathode in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells(SOFC) were synthesized by citrate process. Specimens were prepared with sintering temperatures at 110$0^{\circ}C$, 120$0^{\circ}C$ and 130$0^{\circ}C$, which were fabricated by slurry coating with citric acid contents. Interfacial resistance was measured between cathode and electrolyte using AC-impedance analyzer. With various citric acid content, the degree of agglomeration for the initial particles changed. Also sintering temperature changed the particle size and the degree of densification of cathode. Factors affecting the interfacial resistance were adherent degree of the electrolyte and cathode, distribution of TPB(three phase boundaries, TPB i.e., electrolyte/electrode/gas phase area) and porosity of cathode. By increasing the sintering temperature, particle size and densification of the cathode were increased. And then, TPB area which occurs catalytic reaction was reduced and so interfacial resistance was increased.sed.sed.d.

We used isopropanol which has low boiling point to prepare thin films at low temperature and changed mole concentration of zinc acetate from 0.3 to 1.3 mol/l. The structural, optical and electrical properties of ZnO thin films with Zn content were investigated. ZnO thin films highly oriented along the c-axis were obtained at Zn concentration of 0.7 mol/l. ZnO thin films with Zn concentration of 0.7 mol/l showed a homogeneous surface layer of nano structure. The transmittance of ZnO thin films by UV-vis. measurement was about 87% under the Zn concentration of 0.7 mol/l, but rapidly decreased over the 1.0 mol/l. The optical band gap energy was obtained from 3.07 to 3.22 eV which is very close to the band gap of bulk ZnO (3.2 eV). The electrical resistivity of ZnO thin films was about 150 $\Omega$-cm that shows little difference with Zn concentration. I-V curves of ZnO thin films exhibited typical ohmic contact properties.

The Daebong deposit consists of gold-silver-bearing mesothermal massive quartz veins which fill fractures along fault zones($N10{\sim}20^{\circ}W,\;40{\sim}60^{\circ}SW$) within banded gneiss or granitic gneiss of Precambrian Gyeonggi massif. Ore mineralization of the deposit is composed of massive white quartz vein(stage I) which was formed in the same stage by multiple episodes of fracturing and healing and transparent quartz vein(stage II) which is separated by a major faulting event. The hydrothermal alteration of stage I is sericitization, chloritization, carbonitization, pyritization, silicification and argillization. Sericitic zone occurs near and at quartz vein and includes mainly sericite, quartz, and minor illite, carbonates and epidote. Chloritic zone occurs far from quartz vein and is composed of mainly chlorite, quartz and minor sericite, carbonates and epidote. Fe/(Fe+Mg) ratios of sericite and chlorite range 0.36 to 0.59($0.51{\pm}0.10$) and 0.66 to 0.73($0.70{\pm}0.02$), and belong to muscovite-petzite series and brunsvigite, respectively. Calculated $Al_{IV}-Fe/(Fe+Mg)$ diagrams of sericite and chlorite suggest that this can be a reliable indicator of alteration temperature in Au-Ag deposits. Calculated activities of chlorite end member are $a3(Fe_5Al_2Si_3O_{10}(OH){_6}=0.00964{\sim}0.0291,\;a2(Mg_5Al_2Si_3O_{10}(OH){_6}= 9.99E-07{\sim}1.87E-05,\;a1(Mg_6Si_4O_{10}(OH){_6}=5.61E-07{\sim}1.79E-05$. It suggest that chlorite from the Daebong deposit is iron-rich chlorite formed due to decreasing temperature from $T>450^{\circ}C$. Calculated $log\;{\alpha}K^+/{\alpha}H^+,\;log\;{\alpha}Na^+/{\alpha}H^+,\;log\;{\alpha}Ca^{2+}/{\alpha}^2H^+$ and pH values during wall-rock alteration are $4.6(400^{\circ}C),\;4.1(350^{\circ}C),\;4.0(400^{\circ}C),\;4.2(350^{\circ}C),\;1.8(400^{\circ}C),\;4.5(350^{\circ}C),\;5.4{\sim}6.5(400^{\circ}C)\;and\;5.1{\sim}5.5(350^{\circ}C)$, respectively. Gain elements (enrichment elements) during wallrock alteration are $K_2O,\;P_2O_5,\;Na2O$, Ba, Sr, Cr, Sc, V, Pb, Zn, Be, Ag, As, Ta and Sb. Elements(Sr, V, Pb, Zn, As, Sb) represent a potentially tools for exploration in mesothermal and epithermal gold-silver deposits.

The plasmid pSY130-14 for the high production of phenylalanine is a temperaturecontrollable expression vector composed of the $P_R$ and the $P_L$ promoter and a temperature sensitive repressor, $cI_{857}$ of bacteriophage lambda. Strain AT2471 harbouring plasmid pSY13O- 14 is induced the phenylalanine production by shifting up the incubation temperaure to $38.5^{\circ}C$. Plasmid stability of E. coli AT2471 harbouring pSY130-14 was very low, it was about 30% after 48 h cultivation at $38.5^{\circ}C$ without kanamycin. The plasmid disappeared immediately at $40^{\circ}C$ without kanamycin, and at $40^{\circ}C$ adding kanamycin, the plasmid stability decreased at the beginning, but rose with the extension of the culture time. For the improvement of plasmid stability, the plasmid obtaind was designated as pSY15O-1 by changing origin region (ori) pACYC 177 of pSY130-14 for ori pSC101. E. coli AT2471 harbouring pSY150-1 was stable at $38.5^{\circ}C$ without tetracycline, and the plasrnid stability was about 40% after 48 h cultivation at $40^{\circ}C$.

Second-order rate constants ($k_{Ox^-}$) have been measured spectrophotometrically for nucleophilic substitution reactions of 4-nitrophenyl X-substituted-cinnamates (7a-7e) and Y-substituted-phenyl cinnamates (8a-8e) with butane-2,3-dione monoximate ($Ox^-$) in 80 mol % $H_2O$/20 mol % DMSO at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$. The Hammett plot for the reactions of 7a-7e consists of two intersecting straight lines while the Yukawa-Tsuno plot exhibits an excellent linearity with ${\rho}_X$=0.85 and r=0.58, indicating that the nonlinear Hammett plot is not due to a change in the rate-determining step but is caused by resonance stabilization of the ground state (GS) of the substrate possessing an electron-donating group (EDG). The Br${\o}$nsted-type plot for the reactions of Y-substituted-phenyl cinnamates (8a-8e) is linear with ${\beta}_{lg}$ = -0.64, which is typical of reactions reported previously to proceed through a concerted mechanism. The ${\alpha}$-nucleophile ($Ox^-$) is more reactive than the reference normal-nucleophile ($4-ClPhO^-$). The magnitude of the ${\alpha}$-effect (i.e., the $k_{Ox^-}/k_{4-ClPhO^-}$ ratio) is independent of the electronic nature of the substituent X in the nonleaving group but increases linearly as the substituent Y in the leaving group becomes a weaker electron-withdrawing group (EWG). It has been concluded that the difference in solvation energy between $Ox^-$ and $4-ClPhO^-$ (i.e., GS effect) is not solely responsible for the ${\alpha}$-effect but stabilization of transition state (TS) through a cyclic TS structure contributes also to the Y-dependent ${\alpha}$-effect trend (i.e., TS effect).

According to spread volume of B(BiPbCuO) layer, composition ratio and each stage of sintering process, we studied stability of high Tc superconductor phase and generation and growth movement of superconducting phase. The dual layer composed of SrCaCuO and BiPbCuO compound were prepared to develop the Bi-2223 superconductor[108K] through interaction and diffusion during sintering process. The dual layer samples were sintered at 830.deg. C for 0-210 hours. From the result, the optimum conditions were : spread volume(A:B=1:0.6), sintering time(210h) and composition ratio(A:S $r_{2}$C $a_{2}$C $u_{2}$- $O_{x}$, B:B $i_{1.9}$P $b_{0.5}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{y}$) at 830.deg. C.. C.C.C.

Electrical conduction of $SrZrO_3$ doped with $Y_2O_3$ was measured as a function of gas atmosphere and temperature by impedance spectroscopy. Hydrogen dissolution, due to an enhanced driving force in the presence of oxygen, results in protonation by water incorporation. Proton conductivity increased with water vapor pressure, ${P_w}^{1/2}$. In the pure hydrogen atmosphere, the dissolution of hydrogen,$H_2(g)=2H_{i}$ +2e', is supposed to be driven by a reduced activity of electrons, ascribable to their trapping in oxygen vacancies. The activation energy of electrical conductivity was 50 kJ/mol, in wet argon atmosphere in the temperature range of $600~900^{\circ}C$, similar to those reported for proton conduction in the literature. Grain boundary effect in proton conduction was substantial in the 10% doped case at temperatures lower than $700^{\circ}C$.

Electrochemical reaction utilizing the semiconducting photoanodes can be applied to the photoelectrolysis of water to produce hydrogen. In this preliminary experiment, $TiO_2$ photoanodes were prepared by sintering anatase-$TiO_2$ powder at $1,250^{\circ}C$ and thermal oxidizing titanium plate at $850^{\circ}C$ in air and oxygen, respectively. Their surface structures were observed by XRD and optical microscope. I-E characteristics of thermally oxidized $TiO_2$ photoanode were also investigated under illuminated and dark conditions using 1 N and 0.1 N NaOH electrolyte solutions.

A new series of hydrazone derivatives were synthesized from 4-(2-chloroethyl)semicarbazide and their antiproliferative activity against human brain (U251) and liver (Hepg2) carcinoma cell lines were evaluated. The hydrazone compounds are benzaldehyde (2a-2g), acetophenone (3a-3f), and 3-formylindole derivatives (4a-4d). Among the acetophenone derivatives, 3e (p-methoxy substituted) and 3f (p-nitro substituted) showed the highest cytotoxic activity against Hepg2 cell line (I$C_{50}$ = 6 and 8 $\mu$g/ml, respectively). Among the 3-formylindole derivatives, 4a (hydrazone of 3-formylindole itself) showed a pronounced cytotoxic activity against both U251 (I$C_{50}$ = 21 $\mu$g/ml) and Hepg2 (I$C_{50}$ = 7 $\mu$g/ml).

Thin film of $TiO_2$ was obtained by the sol-gel dip method on the brosilicate glass substrate. It was found that the film was about $1.5{\mu}m$ thick as obtained by 4 successive coatings and annealed at varied temperatures ranged from $300^{\circ}C$ to $1100^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs. The substrate used was having the surface area of $100mm^2$. Increasing the annealing temperature caused to change in mineralogical phase of titanium oxide i.e., amorphous, crystalline antase to rutile phases. The particle size of the titanium oxide film were ranged from $0.1{\sim}0.54{\mu}m$ estimated by the SEM analysis. The material showed an absorbance maximum at the wavelength 390nm obtained by UV-visible spectrophotometer. These results therefore, indicated that the $TiO_2$ film obtained relatively at low annealing temperature consisted predominantly with anatase phase; possessed higher photocatalytic behavior i.e., 2.4 times higher than that of only UV lamp irradiation.
