Superoxide dismutases (SOD) are metalloenzymes that convert $O_2^-\;to\;H_2O_2$. Rehmannia glutinosa is highly tolerant to paraquat-induced oxidative stress. The primary objective of this study was to characterize regulation of SOD gene expression in R. glutinosa in response to oxidative stresses and hormones. A full-length putative SOD clone (RgCu-ZnSOD1) was isolated from the leaf cDNA library of R. glutinosa using an expressed sequence tag clone as a probe. RgCu-ZnSOD1 cDNA is 777 bp in length and contains an open reading frame for a polypeptide consisted of 152 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence of the clone shows highest sequence similarity to the cytosolic Cu-ZnSODs. The two to three major bands with several minor ones on the Southern blots indicate that RgCu-ZnSOD1 is a member of a small multi-gene family. RgCuZnSOD1 mRNA was constitutively expressed in the leaf, flower and root. The expression of RgCu-ZnSOD1 mRNA was increased about 20% by wounding and paraquat, but decreased over 50% by ethylene and $GA_3$. This result indicates that the RgCu-ZnSOD1 expression is regulated differentially by different stresses and phytohormones at the transcription level. The RgCu-ZnSOD1 sequence and information on its regulation will be useful in investigating the role of SOD in the paraquat tolerance of R. glutinosa.

The objective of this study was to investigate the possible effects of oral administration of single cell products (SCP) of apple on activating peritoneal macrophages. Apples were processed either for cold-pressed juice or SCP, which were produced by incubating sliced apples with a protopectinase, Sumyzyme MC. Both cold-pressed juice and SCP of apple were administered to C57BL/6 mice for 10 days to compare their efficacy, along with the control group, in stimulating peritoneal macrophages. The viability of macrophages was significantly increased by up to 161% of that of the control following the administration of apple SCP, whereas the viability of macrophages was increased to a lesser extent of up to 143% in the apple juice (AJ) administered group. Administration of apple SCP also induced a significantly higher production of $H_2O_2$ from macrophages (317% of the control) than that of cold-pressed AJ (210%). Although nitric oxide (NO) production was not increased by the administration of either AJ or SCP, the latter slightly but significantly increased tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ ($TNF-{\alpha}$) production from macrophages from 560.4 to 579.8 pg/mL. The results of this study suggest that administering SCP is more efficient than administering AJ to stimulate functions of peritoneal macrophages.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the bio-stimulating effect of low power density laser radiation on the mechanically exposed pulp. Class V cavities on dog's teeth were prepared and the pulps were mechanically exposed with a round bur. In control group, the exposed pulps were capped with $Ca(OH)_2$ powder and the cavities were sealed with Z.O.E.. In experimental group A, the pulps were irradiated with GaA1As laser for 5 minutes and then they were treated the same as control group. In experimental group B, the exposed pulps were covered by aluminum foil and sealed with Z.O.E. after they were irradiated with the laser as the experimental group A. In the all groups, the pulps were histopathologically observed at the time intervals of 1, 2 and 3 week after experiment and the results were statistically evaluated. The results were as follows: 1) In control and experimental groups, mild vascular congestion and bleeding was found in most of the specimens and for the new formation of dentin bridge, experimental group A had the most cases. The dentin bridge had discontinuous osteodentin like appearance without any dentinal tubules. Inflammatory cell infiltration consisted of acute and chronic inflammatory cell, and the formation of microabscess was also observed. 2) The degree of inflammatory cell infiltration was not significantly different among control group and experimental groups at 1 week, 2 week and 3 week. 3) The formation of new dentin bridge was not significantly different between control group and experimental group A at 1 week, but at 2 week and 3 week, experimental group A showed significantly more cases of new dentin formation than control groups. (P < 0.05). 4) Between control group and experimental group B, there was no significant difference in formation of the new dentin bridge at 1, 2 and 3 week. (P> 0.05). 5) There was no significant difference in formation of the new dentin bridge at 1 and 2 week between experimental group A and experimental group B, but at 3 week, the former significantly had more cases of new dentin bridge formation than the latter.(P < 0.05).

STT-MRAM (수직자화 자기메모리)는 자화반전 현상을 원리로 구동하는 비휘발성 메모리로 기존의 메모리 장치에 비해 빠른 접근 속도와 높은 저장 밀도를 가지며 영구적인 기록이 가능하다. 이러한 장점들에 더해 적은 소모 전력을 지니므로 기존의 SRAM등의 한계를 극복할 대안으로 각광받고 있으며 차세대 메모리 군의 선두주자로 가장 적합한 후보중 하나이다. STT-MRAM의 건식 식각 방식에 있어 가장 큰 이슈는 소자 구동에 핵심적인 역할을 하는 MTJ(Magnetic Tunnel Junction)의 식각이다. MTJ는 free layer, tunnel barrier, pinned layer 3개의 층으로 구성되어 있으며 양 끝 layer에는 강자성체인 CoFeB가 사용되고 tunnel barrier에는 절연층인 MgO가 사용되고 있다. 이러한 물질들은 기존의 반도체 소자에서는 사용되지 않았던 물질들로 기존 공정에서 사용되던 Cl2 based plasma etching에서는 측벽에 비화발성 반응물과 잔류 Cl2에 의해 부식이 발생하는 문제점이 드러나고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 새로운 대안으로 CO/NH3/Ar나 CH4/Ar 같은 새로운 가스 조합을 사용하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 연구에 의해 기존의 Cl2 plasma를 이용한 식각에서 나타나는 문제점은 해결이 되었으나 또 다른 문제점들이 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 stack MRAM sample을 사용하여 기존의 사용되는 Cl2/Ar plasma와 대안 gas인 CO/NH3, CH4/Ar plasma에서의 식각을 진행하였으며 실험 조건(gas 비율 변화, Bias power 변화, 식각 시간)에 따른 식각 속도의 변화나 식각 후의 profile에 대하여 관찰하였다. 이에 따라 식각후에 어떠한 차이점이 있는 지를 알아보았으며 CO/NH3나 CH4/Ar plasma에서 식각시 나타나는 문제점에 대하여도 조명해 보았다.

Recently, oxide semi-conductor materials have been investigated as promising candidates replacing a-Si:H and poly-Si semiconductor because they have some advantages of a room-temperature process, low-cost, high performance and various applications in flexible and transparent electronics. Particularly, amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (a-IGZO) is an interesting semiconductor material for use in flexible thin film transistor (TFT) fabrication due to the high carrier mobility and low deposition temperatures. In this work, we demonstrated improvement of flexibility in IGZO TFTs, which were fabricated on polyimide (PI) substrate. At first, a thin poly-4vinyl phenol (PVP) layer was spin coated on PI substrate for making a smooth surface up to 0.3 nm, which was required to form high quality active layer. Then, Ni gate electrode of 100 nm was deposited on the bare PVP layer by e-beam evaporator using a shadow mask. The PVP and $Al_2O_3$ layers with different thicknesses were used for organic/inorganic multi gate dielectric, which were formed by spin coater and atomic layer deposition (ALD), respectively, at $200^{\circ}C$. 70 nm IGZO semiconductor layer and 70 nm Al source/drain electrodes were respectively deposited by RF magnetron sputter and thermal evaporator using shadow masks. Then, IGZO layer was annealed on a hotplate at $200^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Standard electrical characteristics of transistors were measured by a semiconductor parameter analyzer at room temperature in the dark and performance of devices then was also evaluated under static and dynamic mechanical deformation. The IGZO TFTs incorporating hybrid gate dielectrics showed a high flexibility compared to the device with single structural gate dielectrics. The effects of mechanical deformation on the TFT characteristics will be discussed in detail.

The thermodynamic parameters for the formation of gadolinium benzoate have been determined in the ionic medium of 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ at $25^{\circ}C$ in aqueous solution. The thermodynamic results indicate that the complex is stabilized by the excess entropy effect caused by the dehydration of reacting ions. The especially high stability of Gd(III)-benzoate compared to the monodentate ligand complexes might be ascribed to the conjugation effect of the benzene ring in the benzoate ligand. IR spectra show that benzoate anion acts as a bidentate ligand toward $Gd^{3+}$ to form a chelate ring in solid state. Magnetic susceptibility data of the compound were also obtained and well described by Curie-Weiss law in the temperature range 80${\sim}$300K.

This study is to investigate a chemical vapor deposition technique of copper film which is expected to be more useful as metallizations of microcircuit fabrication. An experimental equipment was designed and set-up for this study, and a Cu-precursor used that is a metal-organic compound, named (hfac)Cu(I)VTMS ; (hevaflouoroacetylacetonate trimethyvinylsilane copper). Base pressure of the experimental system is in $10^{-6}$ Torr, and the chamber pressure and the substrate temperature can be controlled in the system. Before the deposition of copper thin film, tungsten or titanium nitride film was deposited onto the silicon wafer. Helium has been used as carrier gas to control the deposition rate. As a result, deposition rate was measured as $1,800\;{\AA}/min$ at $220^{\circ}C$ which is higher than the results of previous studies, and the average surface roughness was measured as about $200\;{\AA}$. A deposition selectivity was observed between W or TiN and $SiO_{2}$ substrates below $250^{\circ}C$, and optimum results are observed at $180^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature and 0.8 Torr of chamber pressure.
