In order to investigate the chemical components of acid precipitation at Samchok City in Korea, the rainwater was collected according to 3mm rainfall from september 1994 to december 1994. pH, electric conductivity were measured and ionic components were analyzed by Ion chromatography. As the analytical results, the average value were 6.27 for pH, 53.16 S/cm for E.C., the average concentration were 393.42 eq/1 for C $l^{[-10]}$ , 18.41 eq/1 for N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ , 91.44 eq/1 for S $O_{4}$$^{2-}$, 335.92 eq/1 for N $a^{+}$, 65.66 eq/1 for N $H_{4}$$^{+}$, 18.22 eq/1 for $K^{+}$, 120.49 eq/1 for $Mg^{2+}$ and 147.04 eq/1 for $Ca^{2+}$. pH value correlated negatively with rainfall amount and the component of C $l^{[-10]}$ and N $a^{+}$ were transported to urban air by the seasalt. It showed that S $O_{4}$$^{2-}$ and N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ had influence on acidity of precipitation, 73% and 27%, respectively, in this area. Ion Concentration of N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ was higher than S $O_{4}$$^{2-}$ in the early rain, S $O_{4}$$^{2-}$ was higher than N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ in the succeeding rain by multi-regration analysis. the percentages of removal by percipitation were higher in N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ than in S $O_{4}$$^{2-}$./TEX> 2-/.

In this study, microstructural and electrical properties of (Pb)(La,Nd)$TiO_3$ cerramics were investigated as a function of CuO addition. Taking into consideration Tc of $325^{\circ}C$, dynamic range of 49dB( at the wafer form) and density of $7.71g/cm^{3}$, it can be concluded that the specimen S2 sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ is the best for the resonator application, Dynamic characteristics of energy-trapped 20MHz SMD type resonator as a function of internal dot size variation were also investigated. Dynamic range characteristics showed the highest value of 60.72dB at S2-4(dot size 1.13mm).

In order to enhance the photovoltaic property of the CdS/CdSe co-sensitized quantum dot sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs), the surface of nanoporous $TiO_2$ photoanode was modified by ultrathin $Al_2O_3$ layer before the deposition of quantum dots (QDs). The $Al_2O_3$ layer, dip-coated by 0.10 M Al precursor solution, exhibited the optimized performance in blocking the back-reaction of the photo-injected electrons from $TiO_2$ conduction band (CB) to polysulfide electrolyte. Transient photocurrent spectra revealed that the electron lifetime (${\tau}_e$) increased significantly by introducing the ultrathin $Al_2O_3$ layer on $TiO_2$ surface, whereas the electron diffusion coefficient ($D_e$) was not varied. As a result, the $V_{oc}$ increased from 0.487 to 0.545 V, without appreciable change in short circuit current ($J_{sc}$), thus inducing the enhancement of photovoltaic conversion efficiency (${\eta}$) from 3.01% to 3.38%.

We have evaluated the hydroxyl group-solvent specific interactions by using a Lichrosorb RP18 stationary phase and by measuring the retention data of carefully selected solutes in 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, 80/20, and 90/10(v/v%) methanol/water eluents at 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 ${^{\circ}C}$. The selected solutes are 3 positional isomers of phenylpropanol, that is, 1-phenyl-1-propanol, 1-phenyl-2-propanol, and 3-phenyl-1-propanol. There exist clear discrepancies in ${\Delta}H^o$ (solute transfer enthalpy from the mobile to the stationary phase) and $T{\Delta}S^o$ (solute transfer entropy) among positional isomers. The difference in ${\Delta}H^o$ and $T{\Delta}S^o$ between secondary alcohols (1-phenyl-1-propanol and 1-phenyl-2-propanol)is negligible compared to the difference between the primary alcohol (1-phenyl-3-propanol) and secondary alcohols. The $T{\Delta}S^o$ values of 3-phenyl-1-propanol are close to those of butylbenzene while the $T{\Delta}S^o$ values of secondary alcohols are close to those of propylbenzene. The difference in ${\Delta}{\Delta}H^o$ (specific solute-mobile phase interaction enthalpy) between the primary alcohol and the secondary alcohol decreases with increase of methanol content in the mobile phase. A unique observation is an extremum for 1-phenyl-3-propanol in the plot of $T{\Delta}{\Delta}S^o$ vs. methanol volume %. The positive sign of $T{\Delta}{\Delta}S^o$ of 3-phenyl-1-propanol implies that the entropy of 3-phenyl-1-propanol is greater than that of the hypothetical alkylbenzene (the same size and shape as phenylpropanol) in the mobile phase.

The aim of this work was to investigate the purification and characterization dixoygenases isolated from Delftia sp. JK-2, which could utilize aniline, benzoate, and p-hydroxybenoate as sole carbon and energy source. Catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C1, 2O), catechol 2,3-dioxygenase(C2, 3O), and protocatechuate 4,5-dioxygenase(4,5-PCD) were isolated by benzoate, aniline, and p-hydroxybenzoate. In initial experiments, several characteristics of C1 ,2O, C2, 3O, and 4,5-PCD separated with ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-sepharose, and Q-sepharose were investigated. Specific activity of C1 ,2O, C2, 3O, and 4,5-PCD were approximately 3.3 unit/mg, 4.7 unit/mg, and 2.0 unit/mg. C1 ,2O and C2, 3O demonstrated their enzyme activities to other substrates, catechol and 4-methylcatechol. 4,5-PCD showed the specific activity to the only substrate, protocatechuate, but the substrates(e.g., catechol, 3-methylcatechol, 4-methylcatechol, 4-chlorocatechol, 4-nitrocatechol) did not show any specific activities in this work. The optimum temperature of C1, 2O, C2, 3O, and 4,5-PCD were 30$^{\circ}C$, and the optimal pHs were approximately 8, 8, and 7, respectively. Ag$\^$+/, Hg$\^$+/, Cu$\^$2+/ showed inhibitory effect on the activity of C1, 2O and C2, 3O, but Ag$\^$+/, Hg$\^$+/, Cu$\^$2+/, Fe$\^$3+/ showed inhibitory effect on the activity of 4,5-PCD. Molecular weight of the C1, 2O, C2, 3O, and 4,5-PCD were determined to approximately 60 kDa,35 kDa, and 62 kDa by SDS-PAGE.

ZnO nanowires were fabricated through thermal evaporation of Zn or ZnS powder using solar energy. The Zn or ZnS powder was heated and evaporated by sunlight. The sunlight was concentrated on the Zn or ZnS powder by a converging lens and then the Zn or ZnS powder was evaporated and oxidized in air. After oxidation, ZnO nanowires were fabricated in the focal point. Strong ultraviolet emission, which corresponds to the near band-edge emission, was observed from the ZnO nanowires synthesized using Zn powder as a source material. Meanwhile, green emission, related to intrinsic defects such as oxygen vacancies, prevailed for the ZnO nanowires fabricated using ZnS powder. No catalysts were used in the fabrication of the ZnO nanowires, which suggested the ZnO nanowires were grown by a vapor-solid mechanism.

LMO($LaMnO_3$) buffer layer of superconducting coated conductor was deposited on IBAD-MgO template in the plasma atmosphere at $650^{\circ}C$ which is relatively low compared with conventional deposition temperature of more than $800^{\circ}C$. Deposition method of LMO was DC sputtering, and target and deposition chamber were connected to the cathode and anode respectively. When DC voltage was applied between target and chamber, plasma was formed on the surface of target. The tape substrate was located with the distance of 10 cm between target and tape substrate. When anode bias was connected to the tape substrate, electrons were attracted from plasma in target surface to the tape substrate, and only tape substrate was heated by electron bombardment without heating any other zone. The effect of electron bombardment on the surface of substrate was investigated by increasing bias voltage to the substrate. We found out that the sample of electron bombardment had the effect of surface heating and had good texturing at low controlling temperature.

In this study we attempt to modify the backbone structure and improve processibility of PBO having high melting and glass transition temperature. A series of aromatic poly(o-hydroxyamide)s(PHAs) were synthesized by direct polycondensaton of diacides containing diimide unit with two types of bis(o-aminophenol)s including 3,3'-dihydroxybenzidine and 2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane. PHAs were studied by FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR, DSC and TGA. PHAs exhibited inherent viscosities in the range of 0.34~0.65 dL/g at $35^{\circ}C$ in DMAc solution. The PHA 1 and 6F-PHA 6, introducing o-phenylene unit in the main chain showed excellent solubilities in aprotic solvents such as NMP etc. However, the PHA 3, having p-phenylene unit was not even dissolved perfectly with LiCl salt. 6F-PHAs were readily soluble at room temperature in aprotic solvents except 6F-PHA 3. But they showed better solubility than that of PHAs. The polybenzoxazoles(PBOs) were quite insoluble in other solvents except partially soluble in sulfuric acid. PBOs exhibited relatively high glass transition temperatures(Tg) in the range of 306~$311^{\circ}C$ by DSC. The maximum weight loss temperature and char yields of PHA3 and 6F-PHA3 showed the highest values of $658^{\circ}C$ and $653^{\circ}C$, 62.6 % and 62.1 %, respectively.
