This paper shows the development of current sensor for the measurement of hundreds of nanoseconds large current in pulsed power and its characteristics evaluation. The developed current sensor was designed for measuring induced voltage from magnetic flux under the operation of pulsed power. Output characteristics of developed current sensor was good consistent with commercial one, and the realistic current of fast pulsed power was detected easily with the calibration curve using output voltage of developed sensor. Therefore, the developed current sensor is possible to apply the realistic system.

The effect of catholyte to anolyte amount ratio on the electrodialysis cell performance for HI concentration was investigated. For this purpose, the electrodialysis cell was assembled with Nafion 117 as PEM membrane and activated carbon fiber cloth as electrodes. The initial amount of catholyte was 310 g and that of anolyte varied from 1 to 3 of amount ratio. The calculated electro motive force (EMF) increased with time and the increment enhanced as the amount ratio of catholyte to anolyte decreased. The mole ratios of HI to $H_2O$ (HI molarity) in catholyte were almost the same and exceeded pseudo-azeotropic composition for all amount ratios after 2 h operation. The HI molarity continuously increased with time for 10 h operation. The mole ratio of $I_2$ to HI decreased in catholyte but increased in anolyte. The increment of mole ratio of $I_2$ to HI in anolyte rose as the amount ratio of catholyte to anolyte decreased. In case of 1:1 amount ratio, the cell operation was stopped for the safety at approximately 6 h operation, since the mole ratio of $I_2$ to HI reached solubility limit. The cell voltage of the electrodialysis cell increased with time and the rate of increase was high at low amount ratio. This suggests that the amount ratio of catholyte to anolyte not only crucially influences the cell voltage, but also cell operation condition.

Potentiometric cell oxygen sensors using $CaF_{2}$ were fabricated for monitering the oxygen partial pressure in the low temperature range ($300^{\circ}C{\sim}$500^{\circ}C). The disk type oxygen sensors consist of a reference electrode: Air($O_{2}:21%$)|Pt, a solid electrolyte $CaF_{2}$, and a sensing metel Pt electrode. And the change in open circuit emf of the disk type cell was about 45mV for the oxygen concentration range, $0.1%{\sim}10%$, at the cell temperature of $400^{\circ}C$. Also, the reference electrode incorporated type sensor showed the change of 40mV for 0.1% to 10% oxygen partial pressure range.

산화질소는 생리적 농도에서 세포내 신호전달자로 작용하지만 높은 농도에서는 세포독성을 일으킨다. 최근 치은 섬유아세포와 치주인대 섬유아세포는 산화질소 합성효소를 가지고 있고 세균의 lipopolysaccharide나 cytokine에 의해 대량의 높은 농도의 산화질소가 합성된다는 보고가 있음에도 지금까지 치은 조직에서 산화질소의 세포독성에 대한 연구는 아직 이루어 지지않고 있다. 본 연구는 사람의 치은 섬유아세포에서, 산화질소유도세포 고사기전을 밝히는데 목적이 있다. 세포 생장력은 MTT 방법으로 측정하였고, 세포의 형태적 변화는 Diff-Quick 염색법으로 조사하였다. Bcl-2 famly와 Fas 발현 정도는 RT-PCR 방법에 의해 확인하였으며, caspase-3, -8 와 -9의 활성은 spectrophotometer로 reactive oxygen species (ROS)는 형광분광계에 의해 측정되었다. 미토콘드리아에서 세포질로 분비된 cytochrome c는 western blot으로 조사하였다. 산화질소 유리제인 sodium nitroprusside (SNP) 처리는 사람 섬유아세포의 생존률을 시간과 농도 의존적으로 감소시켰고, 세포용적축소, 염색사 용축, DNA 절편화를 일으켰다. 또한, SNP 처리로 미토콘드리아에서 세포질로 유리되는 cytochrome c 양이 증가되었고, caspase-9 과 caspase-3 의 활성이 증가되었다. 한편, SNP 처리에 의해 death receptor 구성요소인 Fas 발현이 증가되었고, caspase-8의 활성이 증가되었다. Bcl-2 family 에 대한 RT-PCR 분석결과, 세포고사를 억제하는 Bcl-2 발현은 감소되었으나 세포고사를 자극하는 Bax와 Bid의 발현은 증가되었다. Soluble guanylate cyclase 억제제인 ODQ는 SNP에 의한 세포 생존율 감소를 차단하지 못했다. 따라서, 본 실험의 결과들은 사람 섬유아세포에서 산화질소유도 세포고사에 Bcl-2 family나 ROS가 매개하는 미토콘드리아 의존 및 death receptor 의존 세포고사기전이 관여함을 시사하였다.

An Insb magnetic fluxmeter was made of InSb Single Crystal that was grown by Bridgemannmethods and then purified by vapor cone refining method. We investigated some properties of the InSb magneto fluxmeter. It was found that the resistivity and the Hall Coefficient of this single Crystal Were 4.4${\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}$ and $4.5\textrm{cm}^3$/Coul, respectively, at room temperature. The Characteristic Curve of the InSb magnetic fluxmeter between the magnetic field the Hall voltage, with the Current flowing through the element a Parameter, had good lineanty i.e., We obtained a linear Calibration Curve of the flwmeter. The fluxmeter erved the purpose well enough up to 5 k-gaus.

Faulty electric motors onboard vessels with anomalies in windings or poor insulation are usually repaired at land based workshops and reinstalled in place by crew hands after receiving the repaired motors. Especially for 3 phase induction motors which need Y-${\delta}$ starters with 6 lead wires, it would happen that the polarities of stator windings cannot be well distinguished if the original tags of these wires are erased or not visible clearly, resulting in subsequent damage to the repaired motor due to extreme current flow when the power is given to the motor the stator windings of which are wrongly connected in the polarity. This study proposes an easy way to make correct connection in winding polarities without failures based on the electro-magnetically induced voltages on windings when a slight DC current is supplied to a winding coil by using an analog multi-tester. The proposed method is applied to actual motors and delves into the applicability for polarity discrimination through a few measurements onboard vessels.

Standard transfer free energies of sodium and cupric perchlorates in water-acetylacetone solvent system have been determined by electromotive force measurements of galvanic cell and these energies of sodium and cupric ions in this solvent system have been evaluated by the tetrabutylammonium tetraphenylborate assumption as the extrathermodynamic procedure. Standard transfer free energy values of sodium and cupric ions from water to acetylacetone solvent were 5.09 and 4.16 kcal/mol at 25${\circ}C$, respectively. These values mean that acetylacetone is much weaker donor solvent to sodium and cupric ions than water. The standard transfer free energy value of cupric ion from water to mixture solvents which contain small amount of acetylacetone is changed by an unusual form. This is because of the chelate formation effect of acetylacetone to cupric ion.

Recently, as a demand for the portable device is surged, there are needs to develop a new fuel cell system for replacing the conventionally used secondary battery. For this purpose, it becomes important to develop direct formic acid fuel cell (DFAFC) that uses formic acid as a fuel. The formic acid can offer typical advantages such as excellent non-toxicity of the level to be used as food additive, smaller crossover flux through electrolyte, and high reaction capability caused by high theoretical electromotive force (EMF). With the typical merits of formic acid, the efforts for optimizing reaction catalyst and cell design are being made to enhance performance and long term stability of DFAFC. As a result, to date, the DFAFC having the power density of more than $300mW/cm^2$ was developed. In this paper, basic performing theory and configuration of DFAFC are initially introduced and future opportunities of DFAFC including the development of catalyst for the anode electrode and electrolyte, and design for the optimization of cell structure are discussed.

Sinterability, mechanical and electrical properties of yttria-stabilized zirconia(92 mole% $ZrO_{2}$+8 mole% $Y_{2}O_{3}$) doped with 0.5 mole% $SiO_{2}$ and $0{\sim}2.0 mole%{\;}Al_{2}O_{3}$ were studied as a function of $Al_{2}O_{3}$ addition. Sintered density increased with increasing $Al_{2}O_{3}$ addition up to 0.5 mole % but leveled off with further addition. Victors hardness is proportional to sintered density. The specimen with 0.5 mole% $Al_{2}O_{3}$ and 0.5 mole% $SiO_{2}$ exhibited the maximum electrical conductivity and revealed a maximum electromotive force for a given oxygen partial pressure. Experimental voltage curve of this oxygen sensor take on a sharper, more steplike transition at the stoichiometric A/F ratio than those of other commercial oxygen sensors.

Ti-6Al-4V-N films have been grown onto glass substrates by dc reactive magnetron sputtering from a Ti-6Al-4V-N alloy target at different nitrogen partial pressure, input powers and sputtering times. The influence of various sputtering conditions on structural properties of Ti-6Al-4V-N films was investigated by measuring their X-ray diffraction. The quaternary Ti-6Al-4V-N film is crystallizing in a face centered cubic TiN structure, the lattice parameter is smaller than the TiN parameter as titanium atoms of the TiN lattice are replaced by aluminum and vanadium atoms. The films show the (111) preferred orientation and the (111) peak intensity decreases as the nitrogen partial pressure is increased, but the intensity increases as the sputtering time is increased. The deposition rate and the grain size are alto related with the variation of various sputtering conditions.
