This study involves using nickel chloride solution as a raw material to produce nano-sized nickel oxide powder with average particle size below 50 nm by the spray pyrolysis reaction. The influence of the inflow speed of raw material solution on the properties of the produced powder is examined. When the inflow speed of the raw material solution is at 2 ml/min., the average particle size of the powder is 15~25 nm and the particle size distribution is relatively uniform. When the inflow speed of the solution increases to 10 ml/min., the average particle size of the powder increases to about 25 nm and the particle size distribution becomes much more uneven. When the inflow speed of the solution increases to 20 ml/min., the average particle size of the powder increases in comparison to the case in which the inflow speed of the solution was 10 ml/min. However, the particle size distribution is very uneven, showing various particle size distributions ranging from 10 nm to 70 nm. When the inflow speed of solution increases to 50 ml/min., the average particle size of the powder decreases in comparison to the case in which the inflow speed was 20 ml/min., and the particle size distribution shows more evenness. As the inflow speed of the solution increases from 2 ml/min. to 20 ml/min., the XRD peak intensities gradually increase, while the specific surface area decreases. When the inflow speed of solution increases to 50 ml/min., the XRD peak intensities rather decrease, while the specific surface area increases.

Optical properties of sea water were studied in the northwestern water of Jeju Island, based on seven oceanographic stations in July, 1980. Submarine daylight intensity was measured at intervals of 5m depth in the upper 70m layer by using the underwater irradiameter(Kahlsico #268 WA360). The mean absorption coefficients of the sea water were appeared as 0.106(0.084-0.152), 0.135(0.106-0.184), 0.089(0.069-0.130) for clear, red, green, and blue color respectively. The transparency ranged from 11 to 19 meters(mean 16.1m). The mean water color in this area was 4.3(3-5) in Forel scales. The relation between absorption coefficient(k) and transparency(D) was k=1.66/D, k=2.12/D, k=1.38/D, and k=1.51/D for clear, red green, and blue color respectively. The rates of light penetration for clear, red, green, and blue color in four different depths were computed with reference to the surface light intensity respectively. The mean rates of light penetration in proportion to depths were as follows; clear : 56.57%(5m), 20.54%(15m), 4.60%(30m), 0.68%(50m). red : 50.14%(5m), 2.37%(30m), 0.23%(50m). green : 62.29%(5m), 26.43%(15m), 7.74%(30m), 1.56%(50m). blue : 59.29%(5m), 23.43%(15m), 6.10%(30m), 1.08%(50m).

A ramp-type tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) junction having structure NiO(60 nm)/pinned Co(10 nm)MiO(60 nm)/barrier SrTiO$_3$(2-10 nm)/free NiFe(10 nm) with the 15 degree slope was investigated. We obtained nonlinear I(V) characteristics for ramp-type tunneling junctions that have distinctive difference with and without applied magnetic field. In the barrier SrTiO$_3$ thickness of 4 nm, the TMR was about 52% at a bias voltage of 50 mV. (omitted)

Single-layer green ELs was fabricated with using molecularly-dispersed Bu-PBD into poly-N-vinylcarbazole(PVK) which has low operating voltage and high quantum efficiency. A EL cell structure of glass substrate/indium-tin-oxide/PVK:Bu-PBD:C6(∼ 100nm)/Ca(20nm)/Al(20nm) was employed with variable doping concentration. The keys to obtain high quantum efficiency was excellent film forming capability of molecularly dispersed into PVK and appropriate combination of cathode for avoiding exciplex. We obtained the turn-on voltage of 4.2V and quantum efficiency of 0.52% at 0.lmol% of C6 concentration which has been improved about a factor of 50 in comparison with the undoped cell. The PL peak wavelengths wouldn\`t be turned by changing the concentration of the C6 dopant. Green EL emission peak and FWHM were 520nm and 70nm respectively. PL emission peak was obtained at 495nm.

The soil pH favored by Korean wild plants is 5.33~7.20, while naturalized invader species prefer soils of pH 3.95~6.48. The germination rate of Zoysia japonica was inhibited sharply, up to 60%, in extracts of naturalized plants of concentrations over 50%. Erigeron canadensis extract most strongly inhibited germination, while the Korean wild species, Cassia mimosoides var. nomame increased germination rates in concentrations of 30% and 50%. The seedling growth of Zoysia japonica in extracts of Korean wild species and naturalized species did not show differences, but was inhibited strongly, up to 60%, in the extract of Cassia mimosoides var. nomame concentration of over 15%. Analysis of the extract from Cassia mimosoides var. nomame identified procatechuic acid, $\rho$-hydroquinone, $\rho$-coumaric acid and ferulic acid at 254nm; and vanillic acid, hydroquinone, benzoic acid and cinnamic acid were discovered at 284nm. The seed germination and seedling growth of Zoysia japonica were investigated under different concentrations of phenolic compounds. Ferulic acid and vanillic acid were associated with an increased germination rate, while $\rho$-coumaric acid appeared to inhibit seedling growth.

A simple, label-free microfluidic cell purification method is presented for separation of cancer cells by exploiting difference in cell adhesion. To maximize the adhesion difference, three types of polymeric nanostructures (50nm pillars, 50nm perpendicular and 50nm parallel lines with respect to the direction of flow) were fabricated using UV-assisted capillary moulding and included inside a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic channel bonded onto glass substrate. The adhesion force of human breast epithelial cells (MCF10A) and human breast carcinoma (MCF7) was measured independently by injecting each cell line into the microfluidic device followed by culture for a period of time (e.g., one, two, and three hours). Then, the cells bound to the floor of a microfluidic channel were detached by increasing the flow rate of medium in a stepwise fashion. It was found that the adhesion force of MCF10A was always higher than that of MCF cells regardless of culture time and surface nanotopography at all flow rates, resulting in a label-free detection and separation of cancer cells. For the cell types used in our study, the optimum separation was found for 2 hours culture on 50nm parallel line pattern followed by flow-induced detachment at a flow rate of $300{\mu}l/min$.

Nano-scale power splitter based on Si plasmonic waveguides are designed by utilizing the multimode interference (MMI) coupler. Effective dielectric method and longitudinal modal transmission-line theory are used for simulating the light propagation and optimizing the structural parameters at 3-D guiding geometry. The designed $1{\times}2$ 50:50 MMI power splitter has a nano-scale size of only $800nm{\times}850nm$. In order to achieve a variable power splitting ratio, a $2{\times}2$ MMI coupler is designed and the corresponding power splitting ratio can be tuned in the range of 78.5%:15.5%~5.5%:86.6%. Also, it is shown that it has a large bandwidth of $1.5{\mu}m{\sim}1.7{\mu}m$. In this range, the transmission is over 0.8.

We have studied an emission spectra of top-emssion organic light-emitting diodes(TEOLED) due to a change of cathode and organic layer thickness. Device structure is Al(100nm)/TPD(xnm)/$Alq_3$(ynm)/LiF(0.5nm)/cathode. And two different types of cathode were used; one is LiF(0.5nm)/Al(25nm) and the other is LiF(0.5nm)/Al(2nm)/Ag(30nm). While a thickness of hole-transport layer of TPD was varied from 35 to 65nm, an emissive layer thickness of $Alq_3$ was varied from 50 to 100nm for two devices. A ratio of those two layer was kept to be about 2:3. Al and Al/Ag double layer cathode devices show that the emission spectra were changed from 490nm to 560nm and from 490nm to 560nm, respectively, when the total organic layer increase. Full width at half maximum was changed from 67nm to 49nm and from 90nm to 35nm as the organic layer thickness increases. All devices show that view angle dependent emission spectra show a blue shift. Blue shift is strong when the organic layer thickness is more than 140nm. Devece with Al/Ag double layer cathode is more vivid.

We have studied organic layer-thickness dependent electrical and optical properties of bottom- and top-emission devices. Bottom-emission device was made in a structure of ITO(170 nm)/TPD(x nm)/$Alq_3$(y nm)/LiF(0.5 nm)/Al(100 nm), and a top-emission device in a structure of glass/Al(100 nm)/TPD(x nm)/$Alq_3$(y nm)/LiF(0.5 nm)/Al(25 nm). A hole-transport layer of TPD (N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-di(m-tolyl)-benzidine) was thermally deposited in a range of 35 nm and 65 nm, and an emissive layer of $Alq_3$ (tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum) was successively deposited in a range of 50 nm and 100 nm. Thickness ratio between the hole-transport layer and the emissive layer was maintained to be 2:3, and a whole layer thickness was made to be in a range of 85 and 165 nm. From the current density-luminance-voltage characteristics of the bottom-emission devices, a proper thickness of the organic layer (55 nm thick TPD and 85 nm thick $Alq_3$ layer) was able to be determined. From the view-angle dependent emission spectrum of the bottom-emission device, the peak wavelength of the spectrum does not shift as the view angle increases. However, for the top-emission device, there is a blue shift in peak wavelength as the view angle increases when the total layer thickness is thicker than 140 nm. This blue shift is thought to be due to a microcavity effect in organic light-emitting diodes.
