탄소 나노튜브(Carbon nanotubes, CNTs)는 육각형 모양의 구조로서 오직 탄소만으로 이루어진 소재이다. CNT는 열전도율이 다이아몬드보다 약 2배 우수하고, 전기 전도는 구리에 비해 1,000배 높으며, 강도는 강철보다 100배나 뛰어나다. CNT의 이러한 특성을 이용한 트랜지스터, 태양전지, 가스 검출을 위한 고감도 센서, 나노 섬유, 고분자-탄소나노튜브 고기능 복합체 등 많은 분야에서 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 또한 수직으로 성장된 탄소 나노튜브는 일반적인 재료에서는 보기 드물게 힘들게 직경이 나노 크기인 반면 길이는 수 mm까지 합성 되기 때문에 앞서 언급한 분야로의 활용이 더욱 유리하며, 그 중에서도 나노 섬유, 나노 복합체로서의 활용에 극히 유용하다. 이러한 이유로 수직 배열된 CNT 합성에 많은 연구가 집중 되고 있다. 여러 합성 방법 중 성장 변수를 비교적 용이하게 조절 가능한 열 화학 기상 증착법(Thermal chemical vapor deposition, TCVD)을 이용하여 수직 배열된 수 mm의 CNT를 합성한 연구 결과들이 보고된 바 있다. 그러나 앞선 연구결과들은 CNT의 성장속도가 느릴 뿐만 아니라 합성 시간이 길어질수록 성장 속도가 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 반면, 마이크로웨이브 플라즈마 화학 기상 증착법(Microwave plasma CVD, MPCVD)은 기존의 다른 TCVD에 비해 낮은 온도에서 CNT를 합성할 수 있는 장점을 가지며, 고출력(~600 W 이상)의 플라즈마를 사용하기 때문에 성장률이 높고 고밀도의 CNT 합성이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 철을 촉매금속으로 사용하고 MPCVD을 이용하여 얇은 다중벽 CNT를 합성하였다. 철은 직류 마그네트론 스퍼터(D.C magnetron sputter)를 사용하여 증착하였다. 합성시 가스는 탄소 공급원인 메탄($CH_4$)과 함께 플라즈마 공급원인 수소($H_2$)를 사용하였다. 또한 산소($O_2$)의 주입 여부에 따른 CNT의 성장 속도와 성장 길이를 비교하였다. 산소를 주입하였을 때, CNT의 성장 속도와 길이 모두 크게 향상됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이는 촉매금속 표면의 비정질 탄소의 흡착으로 인해 활성화된 촉매금속의 반응시간을 증가시키기 때문이다. 성장된 CNT는 주사전자 현미경(Scanning Electron Microscopy, SEM)과 라만 분광법(Raman spectroscopy)을 통해 표면형상과 결정성을 분석하였다.

The metallurgical investigation of four lumps of bronze from the third building site of the northern workshop site at the Neungsan-ri temple site in Buyeo was performed. The microstructures of a section of sample was observed by SEM and qualitative and quantitative analysis of the sample was performed by EDS. The results are as follows: Sample 1 of the lump of bronze from northern workshop site in the third building site at Neungsan-ri temple site and sample 2 are speculated to be low-quality bronze resulting from refinery of matte which formed on the process of bronze refinery. Sample 3 is speculated as a lump of bronze which is one of Cu-Sn system and the one made by alloy only with pure bronze and tin on the process of bronze refinery. Sample 4 is confirmed as a lump of bronze which is one of Cu-Sn-Pb system from alloy of tin and lead into pure bronze. It is believed that the third building site at Neungsan-ri temple site in Buyeo produced bronze matte by refinery of copper ore or produced low-quality bronze by melting matte imported from outside.

Effects of filtration and centrifugation on the oxidative stabilities of sesame oils during storage at $70^{\circ}C$ were studied by combination of determining peroxide values and conjugated dienoic acid values of oils and measuring the hexanal formation using headspace gas chromatography. Crude sesame oil from roasted seeds contained more free fatty acids, conjugated dienes, and metals (Fe, Cu, Mg and Zn); on the other hand, higher contents of moisture and ${\gamma}-tocopherol$ were found in the filtered or centrifuged oil. Only filtered oil contained more peroxides than the crude oil in spite of the color advantage of the highest L and b values among three oils. All the oils showed the tendency of increasing in total color difference during storage at $70^{\circ}C$, fatty acid compositions were relatively constant except for decreasing tendency of linoleic acid in filtered oil. No significant difference at 1% in the oxidative stabilities was observed between centrifuged oil and crude oil with higher susceptibility to the oxidation in the filtered oil. Centrifuged sesame oil was the best in the aspect of both oxidative stability and the oil color.

Fully grown amphibian oocytes undergo their maturation (germinal vesicle breakdown, GVBD) during in vitro follicle culture when they are stimulated with frog pituitary homogenate (FPH) or progesterone. Present experiments were designed to determine whether proteolytic enzymes are involved in the regulation of the matunation process. Treatment of a $\alpha$ -chymoiyypsin inhibitor, N a -tosyl-L-phenylalanine-chloromethyl-ketone(TP) to the oocytes exhibited a biphasic phenomenon, the induction of the maturation without added hormone at relatively low doses (0.001-1 $\mu$M) and inhibition of the hormone induced oocyte maturation at a high dose (100 $\mu$M). Treatment of a trypsin inhibitor, N a -tosyl-L-lysine-chloromethyl ketone(TLCK) to the oocytes did not induce the maturation, but rather suppressed the hormone induced oocyte maturation in a high dose(100 $\mu$ M). Treatment of exogenous iyypsin to the oocyte induced their maturation without added hormone in a dose dependent manner (0.001-1 $\mu$ M). The data presented here indicate that some proteolytic enzymes play a role in the regulation of the maturation(meiotic arrest or reinitiation) in amphibians.

The apparent strain of temperature self-compensated strain gages at cryogenic temperature is presented. By joining the international round robin test on electrical strain gages at cryogenic temperatures, apparent strain curves of up to the fourth order with respect to the temperature are obtained with different strain gages and different materials. The liquid nitrogen and the liquid helium are employed to get the cryogenic environment. The results can be effectively utilized to determine the real strains by mechanical loading at cryogenic temperature. This paper also describes the optimal selection of strain gages and test materials for the use of strain gages at cryogenic temperature.

The metallization is the key to determining cell costs, cell performance, and system reliability. Screen printing technology suffers from several limitations affecting mainly the front grid. The buried contact solar cell (BCSC) was specifically desinged to be compatible with low cost, mass production techniques and avoid the conventional metallization problem. By using electroless plating technique, we performed this metallization inexpensively and reliably. This paper presents the details of the optimization procedure of metallization schemes on laser grooved cell surfaces. Commercially available Ni, Cu and Ag plating solutions were applied for the cell metallization. The application of those solutions on the buried contact front metallization has resulted in an cell efficiency of 18.8%. The cell parameters are an open circuit voltage of 651 mV, short circuit current density of 37.1 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and fill factor of 77.8 %. The efficiency of over 18 % was achieved in the above 90% of the batch.

Abstract Based onthe characteristics of Carlin-type gold deposit in Nevada district, a potential in Korea is evaluated to the Yemi area where is structurally controlled by folds and trust fault. The fault of high angles are combined with a more permeable rocks such as the Yemi breccia and laminated silty limestone. The pattern of enrichment factors for Tl, Sb, As, Ag, Pb, Zn, Cu, Mo and W of limestones in the southern area are geochemically similar with those reported from the Carlin-type Bold deposit. Moreover, the oxygen and carbon isotopes show a hydrothermal alteration is widely developed in this area. According to the result of geophysical interpretation, stable isotope, alteration mineralogy, geochemical study, and geological structure, this mineralized zone may be extended to the M direction, so a detailed systematic exploration is required to identify this alteration zone.

The contents of minerals of the milled fractions of degermed Japonica and J/Indica brown rices were determined. The fraction I(about 4.4% of the kernel weight) contained 14.8 times as much sodium as did the original kernel; phosphorus, 5.7 times; potassium and iron, 5.4 times; magnesium, 4.2 times; calcium, 3.8 times; manganese, 3.7 times; Copper, 3.6 times; and Zinc, 2.3 times. Concentrations of these minerals were the lowest in the residual kernel, which contained less than the original brown rice. Sodium showed the most deepest concentration gradient, while iron was the most evenly distributed within the kernel in all samples.

그래핀(Graphene)은 한 겹(layer)의 2차원 판상 구조에 탄소원자들이 육각형의 기본 형태로 배열되어 있는 나노재료로서, 우수한 역학적 강도와 화학적, 열적 안정성 및 흥미로운 전기 전자적 성질을 가지고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근, 이러한 특징적이고도 우수한 물성으로 인하여 기초물성 연구에서부터 차세대 응용까지 고려한 각종 연구들이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 그래핀을 얻는 방법에는 물리 화학적 박리, 열화학증기증착법(TCVD), 탄화규소의 흑연화, 흑연산화물의 환원 등의 방법들이 알려져 있다. 그 중 TCVD법이 두께의 균일성이 높은 그래핀을 합성하는데 가장 적절한 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 TCVD법은 탄소를 포함하는 원료가스를 분해하기 위하여 고온의 공정을 필요로 하게 되지만, 향후 산업적 응용을 고려한다면 대면적 그래핀의 저온합성법 개발은 풀어야 할 시급한 과제로 인식되고 있다. 현재는 메탄을 원료가스로 사용하여 $900^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 그래핀을 합성하는 추세이고, 최근 아세틸렌등의 활성원료가스를 이용하여 $900^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 저온 합성한 연구결과들도 속속 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고주파 플라즈마를 이용하여 비교적 저온에서 탄소원료가스를 효율적으로 분해하고, 확산플라즈마 영역에 TCVD 챔버를 결합한 하이브리드 화학증기증착법을 이용하여 그래핀의 저온합성을 도모하였다. 원료가스로는 메탄을 사용하였고, 기판으로는 전자빔증착법으로 증착한 니켈 박막 및 구리포일을 사용하였다. 실험결과, 그래핀은 $600^{\circ}C$ 부근의 저온에서도 수 층으로 이루어진 그래핀이 합성된 것을 확인하였다. 합성한 그래핀은 분석의 용이함 및 향후 다양한 응용을 위하여 실리콘산화막 및 투명고분자 기판 위에 전사(transfer)하였다. 합성된 그래핀의 구조평가를 위해서는 광학현미경과 Raman분광기를 주로 사용하였으며, 원자힘현미경(AFM), 주사전자현미경(SEM), 투과전자현미경(TEM) 등도 이용하였다.
