In order to investigate the distribution of the last Sea Intermediate Water (ESIW), CTD measurement was peformed in the last Sea of Korea during $8\~11$ November, 1994. ESIW was $2.0\~2.3^{\circ}C$ in potential temperature, $34.04\~34.06\%_{\circ}$ in salinity and $5.6\~6.1\;ml/l$ in of gen content on the isopycnic surface of 27.2 in potential density. The isopycnic surface of 27.2 which represented the layer of ESIW became shallower from about 200 m depth in the open sea to about 140 m depth near the coast. off the coast of Jukbyun, the 27.2 isopycnic surface was located at the depth of about 120 m and had a little higher potential temperature and salinity, lower oxygen content than those in the open sea. The ESIW on the continental shelf was higher about 0.8 ml/l in AOU, 0.02 in salinity than those of the ESIW in the open sea. These suggest that the ESIW on the continental shelf did not come from the North Korean Cold Water but originated from the open sea.

This study is to activate gifted students' brains for creativity ability and also an integrated science and art teaching program. The learning programs integrating science and art, which have 30 periods and 10 topics on art and the knowledge of science, were developed dependant on five steps - observing, having interests and curiosity, experimental designing and performing, internalizing, and expressing in an arts-based manner. This programs were applied to 20 senior gifted students in Y Elementary School in Gyeonggi province, by one group pretest-posttest design. The results from these integrated programs of science and art are as follows: First, in the performance of science tasks, prefrontal lobe(F7, FT7) of left brain increase the relative power of theta wave, whereas in the performance of drawing tasks increase the relative power of beta wave in prefrontal lobe(FP1) of left brain, bilateral frontal(F7, F3, Fz, F4, F8, FT7, FC3, FCz), bilateral temporal(T7, TP7, TP8, P7), parietal lobe of left brain(CP3, CPz, P3, Pz), bilateral occipital(O1, Oz, O2). Second, in the performance of science tasks, the relative power of beta wave activity in the left temporal lobe(T7) of the brains of talented students in science significantly decreased whereas it was greatly activated in another part, the left frontal lobe(F3) of the brain (p<.05). Third, in the performance of drawing tasks, the relative power of theta wave activity in five areas of the brain, namely the left temporal lobe(T7), the left frontal lobe(F3), the right frontal lobe(F4), and the left and right parietal lobes of gifted students in science who took the course of the integrated programs, was considerably increased statistically(p<.05). On top of that, these programs were especially effective in balancing the symmetrical development of both cerebral hemispheres by multiplying theta wave activity in the frontal lobes(F3, F4) and the parietal lobes(CP3, P3, P4), which are particularly related to creative thinking. According to the results of this study of brain-based teaching strategies combining science and art, it is an effective program to develop overall activate gifted students' brains for creativity ability. This is expected to be utilized to activate the brain areas for creativity of gifted students in science.

The purpose of this study is to find out the relationships of brain laterality, active EEG over all brain regions and personality traits by measuring EEG signals on the basis of the counseling psychology personality theories. For this study, the EEG of ninety-six college students as measured by an eight channel EEG device and analyzed through the computer and the data of their Big Five Personality Test were analyzed by statistical analysis. The result was that when theta's laterality at the prefrontal lobe is bigger, neuroticism is higher in the personality factors. On each of the brain regions, theta's activity on the left of the prefrontal lobe makes higher neuroticism but lower conscientiousness, and beta's activity on the left of the frontal lobe makes lower extroversion and openness to experience. These results showed that there are statistically meaningful relationships between the brain region activated specific EEG and individual personality or psychological traits. This study branched out into theta band while most previous studies measured in alpha and beta band. Also from these results it suggested the counseling strategy with the brain and follow-up studies.

최근 광소자와 더불어 발전과 더불어 고효율의 새로운 광소자에 대한 수요가 증가되고 있다. ZnO는 이러한 특성을 가진 재료중에 한가지로서 최근 들어 그 가능성에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 특히 상온에서 exciton binding energy가 다른 재료보다 큰 60meV로 고효율의 blue, UV 발광이 가능한 재료로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서도 광소자로서 ZnO를 활용하기 위해서 RF magnetron sputtering법을 이용하기 위하여 광특성의 향상에 목적을 두고 연구하였다. ZnO 박막은 RF magnetron sputtering법을 이용하여 sapphire (0001) 기판위에 성장시켰다. RF power는 60W에서 120W까지 변화시켰고 박막의 성장온도는 55$0^{\circ}C$와 $600^{\circ}C$로 변화시켰으며, 박막의 성장시간은 60분, ZnO target과 기판과의 거리는 4.5cm로 하여 성장시켰다. 성장된 ZnO 박막은 XRD $\theta$-rocking scan 측정을 통해서 박막의 C-축 배향성과 RBS channeling를 이용하여 ZnO 박막의 epitaxial 성장 정도를 측정하였다. 박막의 상온 발광 특성은 He-Cd laser를 사용한 photoluminescence spectra로 측정하였다. 또한 표면의 morphology는 atomic force microscope(AFM)를 이용하여 관찰하였으며 transmission electron microscopy(TEM)을 사용하여 ZnO박막의 단면적을 관찰함으로서 grain의 성장과 광특성 및 결정성과의 영향에 대해서 연구하였다. ZnO 박막의 성장온도 55$0^{\circ}C$에서 RF power를 60W에서 120W까지 변화시킬 경우 XRD $\theta$-rocking peak의 반치폭이 0.157$^{\circ}$에서 0.436$^{\circ}$까지 변화하였고 80W에서 최소값을 가졌으며 in-plain에 대한 XRD 측정 결과 ZnO 박막의 성장은 sapphire 기판에 대해서 30$^{\circ}$회전되어 성장된 것으로 알 수 있었으며 이는 ZnO [100]∥ Al2O3[110]의 관계를 갖는다는 것을 나타낸다. 광특성의 측정 결과인 PL peak의 반치폭은 133.67meV에서 89.5meV까지 변화함을 알 수 있었고 80W에서 최대값을 가졌으며 이는 RF power의 변화에 따른 결정성의 변화와는 반대되는 현상임을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 성장온도 $600^{\circ}C$일때에는 XRD $\theta$-rocking peak의 반치폭이 0.129$^{\circ}$로 결정성이 우수한 박막임을 확인할 수 있었고 PL peak의 반치폭 또한 Ar과 O2의 비율에 따라 76.32meV에서 98.77meV로 광특성도 우수한 것으로 나타났다. RBS channeling 결과 55$0^{\circ}C$에서는 $\chi$min값이 50~60%였으나 $600^{\circ}C$일 때에는 $\chi$min값이 4~5%로 박막이 epitaxial 성장을 하였다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 결정성과 광특성과의 연관성을 알아보기 위해 TEM을 이용한 박막의 cross section image를 관찰한 결과 광특성이 우수한 시편일수록 grain의 크기가 큰 것으로 나타났고 결정성이 우수한 시편의 경우에서는 XRD분석 결과에서처럼 C-축배향성이 우수한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로부터 RF magnetron sputtering 법으로 광특성이 우수한 양질의 ZnO박막 성장이 가능하였다는 것을 알 수 있었으며 광소자로써의 가능성을 확인 할 수 있었다.

The established gait analysis studies have regarded leg as one single spring. If we can design a knee-ankle actuating mechanism as a primary actuator for supporting knee extension, it might be possible to revolutionary store or release elastic strain energy, which is consumed during the gait cycle, and as a result leg stiffness is expected to increase. An ankle joint actuating mechanism that stores and releases the energy in ankle joint is expected to support and solve excessive artificial leg stiffness caused by the knee actuator (primary actuator) to a reasonable extent. If unnecessary kinematic energy is released with the artificial speed reduction control designed to prevent increase in gait speed caused by increase in time passed, it naturally brings question to the effectiveness of the actuator. As opposed to the already established studies, the authors are currently developing knee-ankle two actuator system under the concept of increasing lower limb stiffness by controlling the speed of gait in relative angular velocity of the two segments. Therefore, the author is convinced that compensatory mechanism caused by knee actuating must exist only in ankle joint. Ankle joint compensatory mechanism can be solved by reverse-examining the change in metatarso-phalangeal joint (MTPJ) tilt angle (${\theta}_1=0^{\circ}$, ${\theta}_2=17^{\circ}$, ${\theta}_3=30^{\circ}$) and the effect of change in gait speed on knee activity.

Tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum(III); $Alq_3$ has been frequently used as an electron transporting layer in organic light-emitting diodes. Either Ba with a low work function or Au with a high work function was deposited on $Alq_3$ layer in vacuum. And then, the behaviors of electron transition at the $Alq_3$/Ba and $Alq_3$/Au interfaces were investigated by using the near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy. In the each interface, the energy levels of unoccupied obitals were assigned as ${\pi}^*$(LUMO, LUMO+1, LUMO+2 and LUMO+3) and ${\sigma}^*$. And the relative intensities of these peaks were investigated. In an oxygen atom composing $Alq_3$ molecule, the relative intensities for a transition from K-edge to LUMO+2 were largely increased as Ba coverage (${\Theta}_{Ba}$, 2.7 eV) with a low work function was in-situ sequentially increased on $Alq_3$ layer. In contrast, the relative intensities for the LUMO+2 peak were reduced as Au coverage (${\Theta}_{Au}$, 5.1 eV) with a high work function were increased on $Alq_3$ layer. This means that the electron transition by photon in oxygen atom which consists in the unoccupied orbitals in $Alq_3$ molecule, largely depends on work function of a metal. Meanwhile, in the case of electron transition in a carbon atom, as ${\Theta}_{Ba}$ was increased on $Alq_3$, the relative intensity from K-edge to ${\pi}_1{^*}$ (LUMO and LUMO+1) was slightly decreased, and from K-edge to ${\pi}_2{^*}$ (LUMO+2 and LUMO+3) was somewhat increased. This rising of the energy state from ${\pi}_1{^*}$ to ${\pi}_2{^*}$ exhibits that electrons provided by Ba would contribute to the process of electron transition in the $Alq_3$/Ba interfaces. As shown in above observation, the analyses of NEXAFS spectra in each interface could be important as a basic data to understand the process of electron transition by photon in pure organic materials.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of applying oriental music therapy and reliability of electroencephalogram(EEG) equipment. The study was approved by the critical trial judge committee from ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$(IRB No. 2013-07) university. In order to measure test-retest reliability for 15 subjects, EEG for same participants were measured using same method mentioned above after 2 hours from the first measurement. Same provider implemented to each person at same time. Firstly, EEG was measured for 5 minutes after the subject with attached electrodes sat on chair comfortably for 10 minutes. Then, the subject was given mental stress using the four fundamental arithmetic operations for 5 minutes, and measured EEG for another 5 minutes. After that the subject sat on the chair comfortably listening oriental medicine music therapy for 5 minutes, and EEG was measured for 5 minutes again. There was no side effect regarding music therapy reported. Raw data, which was measured in each step, were converted through FFT(fast fourier transform) and analyzed after divided into certain frequency including ${\alpha}$ wave, ${\beta}$ wave, ${\theta}$ wave, immersion wave, stabilization wave, sef100 wave, and sef95 wave. Data were analyzed using wilcoxon signed rank test, Intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC), repeated measures ANOVA with the SPSS program. In test-retes method, there were significantly differences in ${\alpha}$ wave, ${\beta}$ wave, immersion wave, stability wave, ${\theta}$ wave, sef100 wave, sef95 wave. ICC has shown a high degree of reliability that it was ${\alpha}$ wave .877, ${\beta}$ wave .855, ${\gamma}$ wave .895, immersion wave .897, stability wave .816, ${\theta}$ wave .904, sef100 wave .910, sef95 wave .776. Also, there was a statistically significant difference in ${\alpha}$ wave after applying oriental music therapy. Based on these results, it is considered that average of the channel EEG and application of oriental music therapy would be practiced by increase of sample size using this machine.

Morphometric parameters such as cone height, cone height/width ratio($H_{co}$/$W_{co}$), cone height/difference between cone width and crater width ratio($H_{co}$/$W_{co-cr}$) and slope angle are measured to investigate the rates of slope development of scoria cones in Cheju Island. The parameters systematically decrease with increasing age of scoria cones, suggesting that comparative morphology of scoria cones is a useful age indicator. Cone age is most highly correlated with $H_{co}$/($W_{co-cr}$ or average slope angle because summit craters are infilled and eventually removed by erosional processes. The average slope angle is estimated as $\theta_{ave}$= $tan^{-1}$/〔2.$H_{co}$/$W_{co-cr}$〕. Cheju Island was formed through four eruptive stages during Pleistocene. The youngest cones of stage 4(0.1~0.025Ma) have a mean average slope angle of 23.6$\pm$1.7$^{\circ}$, whereas stage 3(0.3~0.1Ma) and stage 2(0.6~0.3Ma) cones have mean values of 18.9$\pm$$1.7^{\circ}C$and 12.6$\pm$$1.9^{\circ}C$, respectively.

This study was conducted so as to examine which change tDCS (Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) for improving working memory can make on the EEC of stroke patients. Among the patients who suffered for more than 6 months by hemiparalysis caused by stroke, 20 patients selected by MMSE and DST were randomly divided into I group (10 patients) fulfilled by only CCT and II group (10 patients) fulfilled by both tDCS and CCT for total 4 weeks, 30 minutes per a day, three times per a week. For examining EEC variation, the absolute spectrum power was calculated by three bands (${\theta}$; 4~8 Hz, lower ${\alpha}$; 8~10.5 Hz, upper ${\alpha}$;10.5~13 Hz) during the task of words, photos and mental calculation with EEC test, before the arbitration, after 2 weeks and after 4 weeks, so the rate of increase and decrease (%) for the reference EEC was obtained. As the results, the first, particular aspects different one another in three bands were detected according to the measuring period and task. The second, in the forth week, there was only a significant difference in lower ${\alpha}$-power of all tasks. Therefore, through the procedure measuring EEC of this study, the degree of working memory's damage can be expressed by numerical value and tDCS should be additionally helpful for brain damaged patients' perception rehabilitation.
