Various marine microorganisms were isolated from seaweed, and their alginate-degrading activities were investigated. An alginate-degrading bacteria, Vibrio sp. AEBL-211, showed highest level of alginase activity when cultured on a mineral salt medium containing 0.7%(w/v) sodium alginate as the sole carbon source. The intracellular alginase from AEBL-211 was partially purified by ion chromatography on DE 52-cellulose column and gel filteration on Sepacryl G-200 column, and showed guluronate-specific 1yase activity.

The comparisons between measured performance of lab-scale PEMFC and calculation were conducted to understand the detail phenomena of PEMFC for the various inlet oxygen humidity of cathode side. Experiments were performed at $65^{\circ}C$ operation temperature and different inlet humidity conditions such as 40%, 60% and 80%. We used the MEA manufactured by oneself which include $Nafion^{(R)}$ 112 membrane, Nafion solution 20%, and carbon paper(E-TEK). As a result of this experiment, cell performance was getting higher by increasing inlet humidity condition at cathode side because ion conductivity of electrolyte membrane is increased. A 3D CFD simulation model of PEMFC was developed using commercially available CFD code that is one of the STAR-CD module, es-pemfc under same operating conditions. Model calculations results were compared with experimental ones on the polarization curves and calculation results are in good agreement with the experimental ones. Local water distribution and current density inside PEMFC are discussed in detail.

The purpose of this study was to examine a possibility that fly ash could be used as raw material for carbonation by conducting the experiment on magnetic separation and hydration of fly ash that contained a large amount of CaO composite. Wet magnetic separation experiment was performed to remove the component of magnetic substance that contained fly ash, which aimed at increasing the content of CaO in the non-magnetic domain. The selected fly ash was used for hydration experiment before the TG-DTA, XRF and XRD analyses were made to confirm the Ca component that could be carbonated. Then, the fly ash was turned to a hydrate that was favorable to dissociation of $Ca^{2+}$ ion. As a result, the magnetic separation enabled detecting the content of CaO component by up to 61 wt% in the non-magnetic domain. Since the hydrate was confirmed, it is believed that the fly ash can be used as raw material for carbonation.

Thermal behavior of $Li_{1-x}CoO_2$ has been investigated employing DSC (Differential Scanning calorimetry) and TGA (Thermogravimetry Analyzer), and the crystal parameters were calculated from XRD (X-ray diffraction).for the commercial rectangular pouch cell(1000 mAh).The cathode materials coated over aluminium foil current collector is made up of a blend consisting of active material $LiCoO_2$(size $20\;{\mu}m$, 94 wt%), conducting material super p black (SPB, 3 wt%) and binder polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF, 3 wt%). The anode is a mix consisting of carbon (92 wt%) and PVDF(8 wt%) coated over copper foil. The cells for the experiments were first preconditioned by cycling three times and stabilized at OCV=3.0, 3.5, 4.2, 4.35 and 4.5 V. The stabilized cathode material was used for thermal and crystal parameter investigations.

Three hundred and twelve female Tsaiya ducks from four lines (L1051, L1052, L1053 and L1054) were used in this study to investigate the changes in plasma calcium and inorganic phosphorus levels, blood pH, carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO$_{2}$), bicarbonate ion concentration ($HCO_{3}^{-}$), and base excess (BE) during laying periods. The results indicated that plasma calcium and inorganic phosphorus concentration at 40 and 50 wks of age were higher (p<0.05) than those at other ages. Significant positive correlation coefficients were found between plasma calcium and inorganic phosphorus levels at each age tested from 20 to 50 wks. Ducks from L1053 showed lower (p<0.05) blood pH, BE and $HCO_{3}^{-}$ as compared with other lines. Ducks from L1054 had higher (p<0.05) blood pH, BE and $HCO_{3}^{-}$ than those of other lines showing that there were some differences on blood parameters among lines. Eggshell strength decreased with age up to 65 wks and remained constant thereafter. Egg weight increased gradually from 30 to 60 wks and decreased slightly after 70 wks of age. Plasma inorganic phosphorus level in 40 and 50 wks old birds was positively correlated with eggshell strength, while blood $HCO_{3}^{-}$ in 40 and 50 wks old birds was negatively correlated with eggshell strength.

Vacancy defects in graphene can be created by electron or ion irradiation and those induce ripples which can change the electronic properties of graphene. Recently, the formation of defect structures such as vacancy defects and non-hexagonal rings has been reported in the high resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) of reduced graphene oxide [1]. In those HR-TEM images, it is noticed that the dislocations with pentagon-heptagon (5-7) pairs are formed and diffuses. Interestingly, it is also observed that two 5-7 pairs are separated and diffuse far away from each other. The separation of 5-7 pairs has been known to be due to their self-diffusion. However, from our tight-binding molecular dynamics simulation, it is found that the separation of 5-7 pairs is due to the diffusion of single vacancy defects and coalescence with 5-7 pairs. The diffusion and coalescence of single vacancy defects is too fast to be observed even in HR-TEM. We also implemented Van der Waals interaction in our tight-binding carbon model to describe correctly bi-layer and multi-layer graphene. The compressibility of graphite along c-axis in our tight-binding calculation is found to be in excellent agreement with experiment. We also discuss the difference between single layer and bi-layer graphene about vacancy diffusion and reconstruction.

본 연구에서는 PECVD 공법 중에 이온화 에너지가 높은 선형이온빔 소스를 이용하여 고온에서 전도성 카본박막을 코팅하였다. 카본 박막 코팅을 위한 Precursor는 $C_2H_2$ gas를 이용하였으며, 온도에 따른 카본 박막의 전기적 특성 및 두께에 따른 카본 박막 성장 구조를 분석하였다. 카본 박막의 전기적 특성은 Interfacial contact resistance (ICR) 방법으로 측정하였으며, 접촉 저항 측정을 위한 모재는 SUS316L stainless steel을 사용하였고 카본 박막 성장 구조 분석을 위해서는 폴리싱된 Si-wafer를 사용하였다. 선형이온빔 소스를 이용하여 상온에서 증착한 카본 코팅의 접촉저항 값은 50 nm 코팅 두께에서 $660m{\Omega}cm^2@10kgf/cm^2$으로 비정질상의 특성을 나타냈으며, 고온에서는 $14.8m{\Omega}cm^2@10kgf/cm^2$으로 온도가 증가함에 따라 비정질상의 카본 박막이 전도성을 가지는 카본박막으로의 성장을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 전도성 카본 박막의 성장 구조 분석은 FE-SEM 및 Raman spectrum 분석을 통해 확인하였으며, 그 결과 코팅 두께가 증가할수록 카본 입자들은 수nm에서 약 150 nm의 카본 cluster를 형성하며 성장하였다. 이때 전도성 카본 박막의 두께에 따른 접촉저항의 값은 고온 조건에서 카본 박막의 두께가 약 100 nm일 때, $12.1m{\Omega}cm^2@10kgf/cm^2$의 가장 낮은 값을 가졌다. 위의 결과를 경제성이 아주 우수한 대면적 전도성 나노 카본 박막의 상용화 가능성이 높아질 것으로 기대된다.

전자소자 산업의 미세화 및 대형화에 따라 플라즈마 밀도, 전위, 온도, 균일도 등 과 같은 플라즈마 특성을 제어하는 것은 차세대 플라즈마 장치 개발에 있어 매우 중요한 요소라고 할 수 있다. 특히, 급격한 소자의 미세화에 따라 플라즈마 공정을 통해 발생할 수 있는 damage는 큰 issue가 되어 왔고, 많은 연구자들은 이를 해결하기 위해서 다각적인 노력을 진행해 왔다. 그중 높은 전자 온도는 높은 전자 에너지에 의해 공정 중 소자를 손상 시키는 주된 원인이라고 보고되고 있으며, 이에 대한 제어기술은 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 서로 다른 두 개의 내/외측으로 나뉘어진 나선형 모양의 ICP 안테나를 이용 하여 연구를 진행하였다. 내측의 안테나에는 2 MHz를 연결 하였으며, 외측의 안테나에는 13.56 MHz를 연결 하였으며, 내/외측 안테나에 각각 pulse mode로 입력전력을 인가해 줌으로써 플라즈마의 특성을 관찰하였다. Pulse / CW (Continuous Wave) mode에 있어서 전자온도의 측정을 위해 emissive probe 를 이용하여 plasma potential과 floating potential을 측정하였으며, 이를 통하여 전자온도를 계산하여 구할 수 있었다. Duty ratio 및 pulsing frequency의 변화에 따른 전자온도의 변화를 확인 할 수 있었으며, 그에 따른 플라즈마 균일도를 ion saturation current를 측정함으로써 관찰할 수 있었다. 실제 식각 공정에 있어서 Pulsing 조건에 따른 식각 특성을 관찰하기 위해, SiO2, ACL (Amorphous Carbon Layer)에 대해 식각을 진행하였으며, 식각 메커니즘 분석을 위해 이온에너지 분포의 변화를 PSM (Plasma Sampling Mass-spectroscopy)을 이용하여 측정하였다.

DLC (Diamond like carbon) 박막을 전극 재료로 활용하기 위해서는 높은 전기 저항과 금속성 기판에 대한 낮은 접착력을 극복해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 PECVD에 의해 합성 된 DLC/Ti 전극의 아크 중간층, 질소 도핑, 증착 및 열처리 온도가 접착 강도와 전기적 및 전기 화학적 특성에 주는 영향을 체계적으로 조사 하였다. 그 결과, arc ion plating (AIP) 법에 의해 증착 된 Ti/TiC 중간층의 도입은 스크래치 테스트와 전기화학적 싸이클 테스트에서 향상된 접착 강도 및 수명을 가져온다는 것을 확인 하였다. 그리고 arc 중간층에서의 arc droplet은 DLC 박막의 표면적을 넓혀 전기 화학적 활성도를 높이는 긍정적인 역할을 하였다. 소량의 질소 도핑은 DLC 막의 비저항을 크게 낮춰주었고, 전기화학적 활성도를 증가시켰다. 증착 온도가 높을수록 DLC 막의 sp2/sp3 비율이 증가하였고, 이에 따라 비저항은 감소하였으며 전기 화학적 활성도는 증가하였다. 반면, 가장 높은 전기화학적 전위창은 $300^{\circ}C$ 에서 얻어졌으며 더 높은 온도에서 감소하였다. 열처리 온도를 높일수록 비저항의 감소 및 전기 화학적 활성도가 증가한 반면, 전기화학적 전위창은 지속적으로 감소하였고, 높은 열처리 온도에서는 DLC 전극의 수명이 줄어드는 것을 확인 하였다.
