0.7 mol% Er-TiO2 nanotubes were prepared using a sol-gel derived electrospinning and subsequent calcination at intervals of 50 ℃ from 500 ℃ to 650 ℃ to investigate the effect of calcination temperature on the crystal structure and the photocatalytic activity of methylene blue (MB). X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicated that Er-TiO2 nanotubes calcined at 500 ℃ were composed of anatase only. However, mixed phases of anatase (51%, 55%, 96%) and rutile (49%, 45%, 4%) were observed for the nanotubes calcined at 550 ℃, 600 ℃ and 650 ℃, respectively. As the calcination temperature rose from 500 ℃ to 600 ℃, the Barrette-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area and degradation kinetic constant increased from 97.77 ㎡/g to 117.62 ㎡/g and from 1.2 × 10-2min-1 to 1.6 × 10-2 min-1, respectively. The Er-TiO2 nanotubes calcined at 600 ℃ exhibited enhanced MB degradation (87%) compared to that of Er-TiO2 nanofibers (37%) due to the synergic combinations of tailored mixed crystals and larger BET area.

We describe the importance of zinc oxide nanoparticle (ZnO NP) concentration in the enhancement of electrical properties in a lead sulfide quantum dot (PbS QD)-based shortwave infrared (SWIR) photodetector. ZnO NPs were synthesized using the sol-gel method. The concentration of the ZnO NPs was controlled as 20, 30 and 40 mg/mL in this study. Note that the ZnO NPs layer is commonly used as an electron transport layer in PbS QDs SWIR photodetectors. The photo-to-dark ratio, which is an important parameter of a photodetector, was intensively examined to evaluate the electrical performance. The 20 mg/mL condition of ZnO NPs exhibited the highest photo-to-dark ratio value of 5 at -1 V, compared with 1.8 and 0.4 for 30 mg/mL and 40 mg/mL, respectively. This resulted because the electron mobility decreased when the concentration of ZnO NPs was higher than the optimized value. Based on our results, the concentration of ZnO NPs was observed to play an important role in the electrical performance of the PbS QDs SWIR photodetector.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify factors influencing the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of older adult women with sarcopenia. Methods: The study was secondary data analysis using data from the 2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The final sample consisted of 142 women aged 60 years and older with sarcopenia and were selected from 8,110 women. The participants was analyzed using complex descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and regression. Results: In terms of HRQoL, three general characteristics were found to be influential, with an explanatory power of 56.0%: difficulty climbing stairs, difficulty working, and perceived health status. Having no or mild difficulty when climbing stairs (B=.20, p=.001; B=.21, p<.001) and no or mild difficulty when working (B=.25, p=. 002; B=.208, p=.013) had a significant effect on HRQoL compared to severe difficulty. Having good or ordinary perceived health status had a significant effect on the HRQoL (B=.11, p<.001; B=.09, p<.001). Conclusion: Based on study findings that the HRQoL of older adult women with sarcopenia were influenced by difficulty climbing stairs and working, as well as good perceived health status, healthcare providers should assist elderly women to maintain physical activities in their daily lives.

n-propanol 용매내에서 titanium n-propoxide($Ti(O^nPr)_4$)의 가수분해반응에 의하여 $TiO_2$ 미분말을 합성하였고, 가수분해속도를 자외선 분광법에 의하여 측정하였다. 분말합성은 water/alkoxide의 농도비가 약 300정도에서 실시하였으며, 물농도, 반응온도, 반응시간 및 반응용액의 산 염기효과에 의한 합성조건을 조사하였다. 반응은 $Ti(O^nPr)_4$의 농도에 비하여 물농도를 과량으로 하여 유사일차반응으로 진행시켰고, 반응속도상수를 Guggenheim method로 계산하였다. 또한 물의 동위원소효과($D_2O$)를 측정하여 반응에 관여하는 물분자의 촉매성을 확인하였다. 실험결과 중성 및 염기성 용액 조건에서 $TiO_2$미분말이 합성되었고, 미세구조 관찰로부터 $TiO_2$입자는 직경 $0.4-0.7{\mu}m$ 정도의 구형입자로 확인되었으며, 물의 농도와 반응온도가 증가할수록, 반응시간이 감소할수록 입자크기는 작아지는 경향을 보였다. 물의 동위원소효과로부터, 물분자는 nucleophilic catalysis로 작용하고 있으며, 반응속도로부터 전이상태에 참여하는 n-value와 열역학적 파라미터를 계산한 결과, $Ti(O^nPr)_4$의 가수분해반응은 이분자 반응인 associative $S_N2$ mechanism으로 진행하는 것으로 추정되었다.

Yellow or transparent fruit peel color is caused by the accumulation or lack of naringenin chalcone (NG, C) in fruit peel and determines the red or pink appearance of tomato fruit, respectively. NGC biosynthesis is regulated by the SlMYB12 gene of the Y locus on chromosome 1, and DNA markers derived from SlMYB12 would be useful for marker-assisted selection (MAS) of tomato fruit color. To develop a gene-based marker, 4.9 kb of the SlMYB12 gene including a potential promoter region was sequenced from the red-fruited (YY) line 'FCR' and pink-fruited (yy) line 'FCP'. Sequence alignment of these SlMYB12 alleles revealed no sequence variations between 'FCR' and 'FCP'. To identify SlMYB12-linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), 'FCR' and 'FCP' were genotyped using a SolCAP Tomato SNP array and CAPS markers (CAPS-456, 531, 13762, and 38123) were developed from the four SNPs (solcap_snp_sl_456, 531, 13762, and 38123) most closely flanking the SlMYB12. These CAPS markers were mapped using $F_2$ plants derived from 'FCR' ${\times}$ 'FCP'. The map positions of the fruit peel color locus (Y) were CAPS-13762 (0 cM) - 456 (11.09 cM) - Y (15.71 cM) - 38123 (17.82 cM) - 531 (30.86 cM), and the DNA sequence of SlMYB12 was physically anchored in the middle of CAPS-456 and CAPS-38123, indicating that fruit peel color in domesticated tomato is controlled by SlMYB12. A total of 64 SolCAP tomato germplasms were evaluated for their fruit peel color and SNPs located between solcap_snp_sl_456 and 38123. Seven SNPs that were detected in this interval were highly conserved for pink-fruited accessions and specific to transparent fruit peel traits, as depicted by a phenetic tree of 64 accessions based on the seven SNPs.

B$_4$C/Al 복합체의 기계적 물성은 제조 과정에서 B$_4$C와 Al의 반응에 의한 반응생성물의 종류와 양에 의해서 결정되므로, 강하고 경량 소재로서의 특성이 요구되는 복합체를 만들려면 반응생성물을 조절할 필요가 있다. TiB$_2$는 알루미늄과 반응성이 거의 없고 B$_4$C보다 낮은 접촉각(100$0^{\circ}C$에서 85$^{\circ}$)을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 B$_4$C를 TiB$_2$로 코팅하면 B$_4$C/Al복합체를 함침법으로 제조하는 경우 알루미늄의 함침 온도를 낮출 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 TiB$_2$가 B$_4$C/Al 복합체의 미세구조와 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. TiB$_2$를 코팅한 B$_4$C 분말을 졸겔법을 이용하여 준비하였다. B$_4$C 입자에 코팅된 TiB$_2$ 입자 크기는 20-50 nm이었다. TiB$_2$를 코팅하고 제작한 B$_4$C/Al 복합체에는 l7wt%의 미반응 알루미늄이 남아있었고, 코팅하지 않고 제작한 것에는 l4 wt%가 남았다. 결과적으로 코팅하고 제작한 복합체는 코팅하지 않고 제작한 것보다 파괴인성은 높고 경도는 낮았으며, 이러한 결과에서 TiB$_2$가 알루미늄의 함침 온도를 낮추고 B$_4$C와 Al이 반응하는 것을 억제하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

광통신에는 광신호의 전송과 광신호 처리에 처리 과정에서 광 손실을 수반하므로 각 요소별로 광신호 증폭이 반드시 필요하다. 또한 광통신망의 완전 광화를 위해서는 제조 공정이 간단하여 가격이 저렴하고, 높은 신뢰성과 높은 증폭 효율을 가지면서 다른 부품과의 집적화가 가능한 광도파로형 광증폭기가 요구되고 있다 그러나 실리카는 광통신 파장대인 1.55$\mu\textrm{m}$대역의 증폭이 가능한 Er 이온에 대한 용해도가 50ppm 이하로 낮아 lmol% 이상 고농도로 Er 이온을 첨가하여 높은 증폭 효율을 얻는데 한계를 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Er 이온에 대하여 높은 용해 특성을 가지고 있어 고농도 Er 이온 도핑이 가능한 알루미나에 Er을 1-2 mol% 첨가하여 광발광 특성을 조사하였다. Er이 첨가된 알루미나 나노 졸은 Al(NO$_3$)$_3$ㆍ9$H_2O$와 Er(NO$_3$)$_3$.5$H_2O$가 일정 양 용해된 수용액에 NH$_4$OH를 가하여 침전물을 얻고 여과 및 수세하여 졸 입자의 함량이 약 5wt%가 되게 이온교환수와 해교제인 초산을 소량 가하여 10$0^{\circ}C$에서 약 50시간 열처리하는 방법으로 제조하였다. Er이 첨가된 알루미나 코팅막은 Er 이 첨가된 알루미나 나노 졸에 GPS(3-glycidoxypropyltriethoxysilane)를 Al에 대하여 7 mol% 가하여 스핀 코팅법으로 제조하였다. Si 기판에 코팅하고, 상온에서 90$0^{\circ}C$까지 각 1시간 열처리한 코팅막의 광 발광 특성은 Er 이온의 첨가량과 열처리로 변화된 알루미나 코팅막의 결정상과 연계하여 논의 될 것이다. X-선 회절법으로 분석한 알루미나 코팅막의 온도에 따른 결정상은 boehmite 상에서 약 50$0^{\circ}C$이후에 ${\gamma}$-Al$_2$O$_3$로 전이하고 있다.

The field effect transistors (FETs) were fabricated ell $Y_2O_3/Si(100)$ substrates by the conventional memory processes and sol-gel process using $(Bi,La)Ti_3O_{12}(BLT)$ ferroelectric gate materials. The remnant polarization ($2Pr = Pr^+-Pr^-$) int Pt/BLT/Pt/Si capacitors increased from $22 {\mu}C/cm^2$ to $30{\mu}C/ cm^2$ at 5V as the annealing temperature increased from $700^{\circ}C$ to $750^{\circ}C$. There was no drastic degradation in the polarization values after applying the retention read pulse for $10^{5.5}$ seconds. The capacitance-voltage data of $Pt/BLT/Y_2O_3/Si$ capacitors at 5V input voltage showed that the memory window voltage decreased from 1.4V to 0.6V as the annealing temperature increased from $700^{\circ}C$ to $750^{\circ}C$. The leakage current of the $Pt/BLT/Y_2O_3/Si$ capacitors annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ was about $510^{-8}A/cm^2$ at 5V. From the drain currents versus gate voltages ($V_G$) for $Pt/BLT/Y_2O_3/Si(100)$ FET devices, the memory window voltages increased from 0.3V to 0.8V with increasing tile $V_G$ from 3V to 5V.

The primary objective of this study was to develop an optimal composite recipe for ginger extract candy with Salicornia herbacea L., for consumption during the first trimester of pregnancy. The secondary objective was to examine quality characteristics of the candy. The physical and mechanical properties and sensory properties for pregnant women in were measured, and these values were applied to mathematical models. Time of stirring water solution, saltiness, pH, and redness of the candy increased as concentrations of ginger juice did, but variations in pH were not significant. The hardness values of the candy ranged from 3,063.90 to $5,681.65dyne/cm^3$. The average values of sweetness and time stirring the water solution were 5.36% and 14.1 minutes, respectively. However, hardness and sweetness stirring water solution were not significant. The range of sensory values of color (P<0.01), flavor (P<0.05), sweetness, saltiness, spiciness, and overall quality (P<0.05) ranged from were 3.73~5.32, 4.05~5.05, 3.67~5.14, 3.59~5.09, 3.55~5.15, and 3.32~5.45, respectively. Results suggest that ginger extract candy with Salicornia herbacea L. should be comprised of 7.37 g of ginger juice and 1.77 g of salt. Consequently, it could be a functional candy for pregnant women.
