We examine the morphology and texture of microlites included in the obsidians from the Baekdusan (Mt. Baekdu) and Kyushu (SW Japan) by using an electron microscope. According to the morphological types of microlites, the microlites in the Baekdusan obsidians are classified as Arculites, Asteroidal and Crenulite, whereas those in the Kyushu obsidians as various types of Arculites, Bacillite, Belonites, Crenulite, Furculite, Lath, Margarite, and Scopulites. Specifically, the Arculites in both obsidians show very distinctive crystal relationships, though they are mainly composed of magnetite and pyroxene. The Baekdusan Arculites exhibit the poikilitic texture of pyroxene crystals enclosing multiple magnetite crystals, whereas the Kyushu ones demonstrate the granular and/or intergranular texture of interlocking between magnetite and pyroxene crystals. This distinction can be used to discriminate the provenance of the obsidian artefacts from the prehistoric sites in the Korean Peninsula.

지표면에서 소규모의 요철로 이루어진 미세지형 (Micro Topography)은 자연 지형의 일반적인 특징이다. 지표면에서의 흐름해석 시 이러한 미세지형에 의한 효과를 정확히 고려하기 위해서는 고해상도의 지형격자를 사용하여야 하나, 대부분의 지표유출모델은 미세지형이 존재하지 않는 저해상도의 거친 표면으로 간주함으로써 바닥 마찰 효과를 증가시켜 미세지형에 의한 영향을 대략적으로만 반영한다. 본 연구에서는 보다 정확한 강우-유출 및 유사-유출 해석을 목적으로 고해상도의 지형격자를 사용하여 미세지형을 포함한 건조 및 반건조 지대에서의 흐름을 수치적으로 모의하였다. 미세지형의 형태는 마루와 골 사이가 직선으로 이루어진 파동의 형태로 이상화 하였으며, 파동의 진폭과 파장을 조절하여 다양한 형태의 미세지형을 고려하였다. 수치모형은 흐름의 움직임에 대한 Saint-Venant 방정식과 침식 및 유사이송에 대한 Hairsine-Rose 방정식을 함께 계산하는 통합모형인 tRIBS-FEaST를 사용하였다. 수치 모의 결과에서 나타난 미세지형의 핵심 영향은 최대 유량 및 유사량 도달시간의 지연, 유사 입자 크기별 유사-유출량 증감, 그리고 하천 유출(stream flow)의 생성이었다. 또한, 미세지형의 형태에 따라 미세지형과 강우-유출 및 유사-유출 사이에 비례 혹은 반비례 관계가 성립함을 보였다. 수치 모의 결과를 종합적으로 검토하여 미세지형이 강우-유출과 유사-유출에 미치는 영향에 대해 논의하였으며, 기존 Manning 거칠기 계수를 통한 해석 방법의 적부를 판단하였다.

The surface microtopography of pyrophyllite collected from the Gussi deposit, Korea was observed by mean of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with the gold decoration technique. As results, closed step patterns with malformed circular islands were characteristically observed on the (001) surface of pyrophyllite, contrasting with spiral step patterns common in illite and kaolinite. Gussi pyrophyllite was likely crystallized from hydrothermal solution of higher temperature and/or higher supersaturation than those of other clay minerals. Comparing with micro-topographies of pyrophyllite from the Shokozan and the Uku deposits, southwest Japan, growth mechanism of Gussi pyrophyllite is almost equivalent to those from the Shokozan and the Uku deposits.

Microlite is crystallized under the supercooled condition of volcanic magma. This study reports the morphology and texture of microlites included in the obsidians from the Baekdusan (Mt. Baekdu), Kyushu (Japan), Hokkaido (Japan) and Lipari Island (Italy) by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Morphology and texture observed from the back scattered electron (BSE) image could give more detailed information on the microlite crystallization which cannot be acquired from the conventional optical microscope. Ten types of microlites are newly described according to the 14 morphological types of microlites by Clark (1961): Lath, Crenulite, Bacillite, Margarite, Belonites, Trichites, Arculites, Furculite, Scopulites, Scopulitic growth. Detailed description of the ten microlites can be used to interpret the crystallization and paragenetic relations of crystals during the cooling of acidic volcanic magma.

해면골에 대한 평가는 일반적으로 골밀도를 기준으로 평가하지만, 골밀도는 뼈의 특성을 70-80% 정도만 설명하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이에 따라 골밀도로 설명이 되지 않는 나머지 특성을 뼈 미세구조의 형태학적 특성을 이용하여 설명하려는 노력이 생체역학 분야에서 오랫동안 있어 왔다. 본 연구는 CAD/CAM 분야의 feature extraction 기술을 이러한 생체역학 분야에 접목함으로써 뼈의 미세구조 평가를 위한 새로운 형태학적 지수 개발의 가능성을 탐색하고자 한다.

A comparative micromorphology of petal and sepal of 15 species of Lycopus was undertaken to assess their usefulness in species identification and to evaluate their significance in the taxonomy using scanning electron microscope and stereo microscope. Five types of trichome are found within the genus: unicellular cylindrical trichome, unicellular trichome with papillae, simple multicellular trichome, capitate glandular trichome, and peltate glandular trichome. The types, distribution, and density of the trichomes show considerable variation among the taxa. The distributional pattern of the unicellular cylindrical trichomes on inner side of corolla is differed among the investigated taxa, and can be classified into four patterns. The apex shape of sepal and the incised position of calyx are also various and be recognizedas four patterns. The shape of cell composing in both outer and inner sides of petal and sepal are shown variously. Finally, the taxonomic significance of micromorphology of the petal and sepal in identification and elucidation of the genus Lycopus, especially among the species is also briefly discussed.

Effects of silver nanoparticles on the polymerization rate and morphology of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc)/silver microspheres prepared by suspension polymerization of VAc were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and atomic absorption spectrometry were used to characterize the morphology and properties of the PVAc/silver microspheres. Due to the change of hydrophilicity of silver nanoparticles, appearance of the microspheres having golf ball-like convave surfaces was observed. Under controlled concentration of surfactant, PVAc/silver microspheres with various hollow structures were synthesized. In the case of silver nanoparticles modified by surfactant, the polymerization rate increased slightly. PVAc/silver microspheres with a conversion up to 80% were prepared via suspension polymerization.

미세조류 내의 엽록소는 바이오디젤 전환 반응에서 산 촉매의 활성을 억제 할 뿐만 아니라, 짙은 색상을 띄게하여 바이오디젤 품질규격으로부터 벗어나게 한다. 미세조류의 엽록소 분석은 용매에 의해 엽록소를 추출한 후, 흡광도를 측정하여 그 함량을 계산하는 방법을 널리 사용하고 있다. 건조된 미세조류의 분석은 선택되는 용매에 따라 최대 추출량이 달라지는 것을 제외하고 큰 문제가 없지만 미세조류를 lipid 오일로 변환하면, 용매에 녹지 않아 추출이 되지않는 문제가 발생하여 흡광도 측정을 어렵게 한다. 따라서 미세조류의 형태가 powder일 때와 오일인 경우를 구분하여 용매를 선택해야 하며, 오일 또는 powder 형태 구분 없이 사용할 수 있는 분석법을 적용하여 서로 다른 엽록소 함량을 비교한 후 분석법 간의 상호 장단점을 파악해야한다. 본 연구에서는 메탄올을 용매로 사용하는 분석법(porra et al.)과 아세톤을 용매로 사용하는 분석법(Humphrey and Jeffrey)을 적용하여 엽록소 함량을 비교하였고, AAS(Atomic Absorption Spectrometer)를 통한 Mg 함량 측정을 통해 엽록소 함량을 계산하는 분석법간의 차이를 확인하였다.

Ultrasonic imprinting is a micropattern replication technology for a thermoplastic polymer surface that uses ultrasonic vibration energy; it has the advantages of a short cycle time and low energy consumption. Recently, ultrasonic imprinting has been further developed to extend its functionality: (i) selective ultrasonic imprinting using mask films and (ii) repetitive ultrasonic imprinting for composite pattern development. In this study, selective ultrasonic imprinting was combined with repetitive imprinting in order to replicate versatile micropatterns. For this purpose, a repetitive imprinting technology was further extended to utilize mask films, which enabled versatile micropatterns to be replicated using a single mold with micro-prism patterns. The replicated hybrid micropatterns were optically evaluated through laser light images, which showed that versatile optical diffusion characteristics can be obtained from the hybrid micropatterns.

A comparative petal micromorphology of 15 taxa of tribe Sorbarieae was carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in order to evaluate their taxonomic and systematic implication. The characteristics of both adaxial and abaxial side of petal epidermal cells such as shape, arrangement, anticlinal wall and cuticular sculpture were described in detail. The Sorbarieae petal epidermal cells were identified as papillate or conical papillate (PCS) and rectangular-rugose tabular (TRS). Three types of petal micromorphology were found within the tribe based on the cell patterns of adaxial and abaxial side. Type I. PCS-TRS, Type II. PCS-PCS, Type III. TRS-TRS (adaxial-abaxial side). The petal epidermal cell types, anticlinal cell wall, and cuticular sculpture represent not only taxonomical importance for identification between or within the genera but also systematic implication. Moreover, this study provides a relation between petal epidermal cell pattern and insect pollinator (entomophily; melittophily) as an additional case.
