$TiO_2$는 화학적으로 안정하며, 인체에 무해하고, 살균특성 및 각종 유기물에 효과적인 분해력, 안정성 및 내구성들의 장점으로 인해 널리 사용되는 광촉매제로 알려져 있다. 최근 $TiO_2$는 유리에 접촉되는 물방울의 표면장력을 크게 하여 접촉각을 10도 이하로 유지시켜줌으로써 비가 오거나 청소를 위해 살수를 할 때 유리면에 얇은 수막을 형성시켜 광촉매 기능으로 분해된 유기질의 오염물질 및 유리표면과의 결합력이 낮아진 무기질의 오염원을 쉽게 제거해 주는 특성들로 인해 오염방지 코팅제로 많이 활용되고 있다. 그러나, $TiO_2$는 빛이 조사될 경우에만 친수특성을 나타낸다는 단점들이 있어 본 연구에서는 $TiO_2$에 $SnO_2$를 혼합한 박막을 증착하여 신뢰성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 또한 기존 $TiO_2$ 코팅막들이 주로 spray 또는 blade 방식으로 코팅되어 코팅된 막이 낮은 균일성과 내구성을 가지므로 본 연구에서는 RF-Magnetron Sputtering 방법을 이용하여 유리 기판위에 $(TiO_2)50(SnO_2)50$ 박막을 증착하였다. 제작된 박막은 유리에 적용될 경우를 감안해 광학적 특성을 분석하기 위해 Uv-vis Spectrometer 장비를 이용하여 투과율을 분석하였으며, $SnO_2$ 혼합에 따른 구조적 특성으로 주사전자현미경(Scanning Electric Microscope, SEM)을 통하여 박막의 결정상을 분석하였으며, 주사탐침현미경(Atomic Force Microscope, AFM)을 사용하여 표면 거칠기를 관찰하였다. 또한 광촉매 특성을 통한 친수성을 알아보기 위해 UV 램프를 사용한 후 접촉각을 측정하였다.

In this paper a new structure of BJT is proposed to improve the saturation voltage characteristics so that it can be used to the low power switching devices. In the case of the conventional finger transistor(FT), the saturation voltage is so high that it dose not satisfy the requirements for the low power device. So the other multi base island transistor(MBIT) is suggested and its saturation voltage is so low in the region of low current that it satisfy the requirement for the low power switching devices, but in region of the high current the saturation voltage tends to increase so that it does not satisfy the requirements for the low power switching devices. So in this paper a new structure of folded back electrode transistor(FBET) is proposed and the characteristics is investigated. When the new structure is applied the emitter area is increased by 35 % so the saturation voltage is reduced by 30 % at the low current region and the contact area is increased by 92 % so the saturation voltage is reduced by totally f % at the high current region with the reduction of 30 % by the increase of the emitter area and the reduction of 7 % by the increase of the emitter contact area.

The needs for the utilization of space in the urban ara due to the increasing population and traffic volume. A Double-deck tunnel can be an appropriate solution. Geosynthetics are inevitably installed between ground and tunnel lining, therefore, geosynthetic-soil interface is also comprises. Dynamic shear behavior of geosynthetic-soil interface affects the dynamic behavior of tunnel, and experimental study is required since the behavior is very complicated. In this study, chemical factors such as acid and basic element in the groundwater and temperature are considered in the laboratory test. Multi-purpose Interface Apparatus(M-PIA) is utilized and submerging periods are 60 and 960 days. Consequently, dynamic shear degradation of geosynthetic-soil interface considering chemical and thermal factors are verified.

We report a contact angle goniometer that can be easily assembled and used in high school and general chemistry experiments. It consists of an LED flash, a sample stand, and a camera fixed on an optical bread board, and the sample area is covered to block light from outside with a box with holes on both sides. ImageJ, free image analyzing software and a JAVA plugin (Drop_analysis) were used to determine the contact angle of liquid drop resting on solid surface. The contact angles of various liquids were successfully measured on various surfaces. The solid surface energies have also been determined using the Owen-Wendt method from the contact angles of $H_2O$ and $CH_2I_2$. The results reasonably agree with the previously reported values, showing the surface characteristics and modification as well as the dispersive and polar contributions. These contact angle goniometer and method for determination of the contact angle and surface energy can be applied to observation of various surface properties including wettability, hydrophilicity, and water repelling. Students can learn how the surface properties are related to the intermolecular interactions and gain experience about the equilibrium between the related forces, optics, and mathematical derivations.

Experimental studies were conducted to characterize the synthesized nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) which is resistant to oxidation in the atmospheric environment. XRD, XPS, and TEM analyses revealed that the oxidation-resistant NZVI particles formed under various controlled air contact conditions (4, 8 and 12 mL/min) have shells with ${\sim}$5 nm thickness. The shells consist of magnetite (${Fe_3}{O_4}$) and maghemite (${\gamma}-{Fe_2}{O_3}$), predominantly. No substantial differences were found in the shell components and thickness among NZVI particles formed under the various air flow rates. On the other hand, shell was not detected in the TEM image of rapidly oxidized NZVI particles. NZVI particles synthesized under the various air flow rates showed similar TCE degradation performances ($k_{obs}$= 0.111, 0.102, and 0.086 $hr^{-1}$), which are equivalent to approximately 80% of those obtained by the fresh NZVI particles. TCE degradation efficiencies of the NZVI particles(fresh, controlled air contact and rapidly oxidized) were improved after equilibrating with water for one day, indicating that depassivation of the shells occurred. The performances of NZVI particles decreased to 90% and 50% of those of the fresh NZVI particles, when they were equilibrated with the atmosphere for a week and two months, respectively. The NZVI particles synthesized under the controlled air contact would have advantages over traditional NZVI particles in terms of practical application into the site, because of their inertness toward atmospheric oxygen.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of contact with the elderly in a daily life on children's ageist attitude. Acknowledging the people's tendency to report in socially appropriate ways to the explicit attitude measurement, implicit measurement is introduced, and relation with the daily contact with elderly(DCE) is analyzed. The research question are as follows: 1) Are these two attitudes explained by different factors? 2) Can DCE alleviate both children's implicit and explicit ageist attitude? 3) How do the contact with grandparent and neighboring elderly affect the children's explicit and implicit ageist attitude? Data was collected from 503 fourth to sixth grade elementary school children. Child-Age Implict Association Test is used to measure implicit ageist attitude. Multinominal logistic analysis and ordered logistic analysis was applied. Followings are the main results: First, explicit and implicit ageist attitudes are found to be related with different predictors. Second, Elderly contact seems to lighten children's ageist attitude overall. Third, the effects of grandparental contact and the neighboring elderly contact on two different ageism were different. While the effect of elderly neighbor contact is limited to the expression of ageism, grandparental contact has a influence not only on the explicit but also on the implicit ageism, even though the effect on implicit attitude is limited in extent. Forth, not the quality of contact but the quantity of it was related to implicit ageist attitude. This result contradicts conventional idea of Intergroup Contact Theory. In the further research, the predictor of implicit ageist attitude need to be throughly examined.

UV, heat, and discharge treatments are arbitrary simulated for finding out the initiations and processes of surface degradation on the polymer surface. Especially, this study is focused on the inter-relation between chemical changes and electrical properties. In contact angle to measure the change of activated degree, that of polymers surface shows a slight hydrophobicity of 73$^{\circ}$~91$^{\circ}$. But, discharge treatment and UV treatment of 300 nm wavelength changed it to the hydrophilic one with the decrease of contact angle, 13.8$^{\circ}$ and 20$^{\circ}$ respectively. Thermal-treatment and UV treatment of 430~500 nm wavelength changed the surface to the hydrophobic one with the increase of contact angle, 90$^{\circ}$ and 80.1$^{\circ}$ respectively.

The disinfection effects of trichloroisocyanuric acid (TICA), calcium hypochlorite (CH), and Bromochlorodimethylhydantoin (BCDMH) on various bacteria in aqueous suspension were comparatively characterized at various concentrations and exposure times of each disinfectant. When various bacteria cells ($10^8\;CFU/ml$) including Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeroginosa, Enterococcus faecalis, Bacillus cereus, Legionella pneumophila, and Staphylococcus aureus were exposed with a solution containing 8 ppm each of TICA, a 99% of the initial cells were killed in 60 sec, 368 sec, 372 sec, 506 sec, 812 sec, and 909 sec, respectively. In addition, the minimum exposure time required to kill 99% of E. coli ($10^8\;CFU/ml$) with 8 ppm of each TICA, BCDMH and CH was measured at 60 sec, 114 sec, and 7,100 sec, respectively. These comparative studies demonstrate that disinfection efficacy is highly variable depending on microbial species as well as disinfectant type, concentration, and exposure time.

Underground flexible pipes for electric cables are subject to external loads and surrounding soil pressure. Particularly, strain of flexible pipes is of great concern in terms of safety and maintenance of electric cables. In this paper, stress and strain of flexible pipes with two types of installation gap, ie, l0cm and naught, were compared to investigate the structural integrity of pipes from actual field test. The effect of degree of compaction and burial depth were also investigated to simulate the variety of construction situation. The results of the field test show that the strain criteria were satisfied under the burial depths of 80cm, 100cm and 120cm regardless of installation gap.

In order to verify the performance of high-speed train and core equipments such as current collection system, sophisticated tests and evaluating procedures must be considered. In case of force sensor to test contact force of pantograph, it should customize the test instruments according to characteristics of pantograph. In this paper, the force sensor with a built-in strain-gauge which developed to improve measuring performance of contact force between the pantograph and catenary system is introduced. The test and evaluation results of force sensor's static and dynamic calibration with pantograph shows that its design is very suitable and applicable for on-line test. Henceforth, the force sensor will be applied to test interaction characteristics between the pantograph and catenary system on the high-speed line and expected by a part of measuring system for evaluating current collecting characteristics more reliably.
