The displacement of carbon black to polypyrrole as a catalyst supporter in the fuel electrode of a direct methanol fuel cell was investigated. Polypyrrole was obtained as a black powder by the chemical polymerization of pyrrole with three different oxidants. The synthesized polypyrroles were pasted on carbon paper and transformed to the fuel electrodes with electrochemically deposited platinum. The prepared fuel electrode was assembled and mounted in a unit cell using a membrane and cathodic electrode film. In comparison with the carbon black fuel electrode, the performance of the unit cell was analyzed in relation to the state of the catalyst, the type of oxidant, and the morphology of the polypyrrole powder.

Film morphology, crystallinity, and luminescence property of solution processed ZnO films have been studied. Fluorine addition and annealing ambient significantly change the defect-related emission band as well as the structural property. Using the overall emission behaviors, we can predict an optimized process condition for solution-based ZnO thin film.

A variety of target configurations in sputtering process have been proposed to deposit various structures of thin film alloys and compound films. In this study, we presented the comparative experimental results regarding to the characterization of properties of Cu-Ni thin films deposited by using a magnetron co-sputtering method, as a function of target configurations; one is using a single target with varying the area of Ni chips attached on the Cu target and another is using a dual-type target with two targets of Ni and Cu separated each other. Structural(d-spacing, crystal orientation, crystallite size, cross-sectional morphology) and electrical(resistivity) properties of deposited films are characterized and compared as a function of target configurations as well as deposition conditions.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate), polyimide(Kapton), and polypropylene surfaces were modified with argon low temperature plasma by RF glow discharge at 240m Torr, 40W to investigate the surface morphological changes due to the plasma treatment using atomic force microscopy(AFM). Analysis of the AFM images and Ra(average roughness) revealed that the plasma treatment resulted in significant ablation on the surfaces. The morphological changes and surface roughness, however, were different depending on material characteristics such as heat stability, presence of amorphous region, swelling phenomenon, and molecular structure of repeating unit. It was assumed that polypropylene due to its tertiary hydrogen was ablated easily compared to poly(ethylene terephthalate), and that polyimide was more resistant to the ablation than PET due to rigid skeleton of imide and stable phenyl ring structure.

The purpose of this study was to introduce the differential standard of the types of Angelicae Pubescentis Radix. We established the classificatory standard according to the external and internal morphology and the physicochemistrical pattern for the four types of Aucklandiae Radix. The results follow: 1. At the external shape, Angelica pubescens f. biserrata has rising lenticel and dark brown surface, Its section is light gray and its xylem is yellow gray. Aralia continentalis has big stem mark in upper portion, its section has no dense tissue with yellow gray. Heracleum hemsleyanum has dark brown surface and little lenticel, its cortical layer is white yellow and xylem is isabella and powdered. 2. At the internal shape, Angelica pubescens f. biserrata has phloem with half of the root and rare vessel. Aralia continentalis has phloem with two-thirds of the root and it has broad cutting and putting vessel that formed 1-2 row. Heracleum hemsleyanum also has phloem with half of the root and wide scattered latex tube and many large vessel. 3. At the TLC pattern, Heracleum hemsleyanum has remarkable dark spot at $R_{f}$ 0.23 on the sulphuric acid color pattern test, but others have faint. 4. At the HPLC pattern, all samples have generally patterns. But Angelica pubescens f. biserrata shows diminutive continentalic acid content and the peak at Rt 20.278min comes out on Heracleum hemsleyanum, but do not come out on Aralia continentalis and Angelica pubescens f. biserrata. Heracleum hemsleyanum has remarkable peak at Rt 20.278min, but shows no peak at Rt 29.023min unlike Aralia continentalis or Angelica pubescens f. biserrata. Also Aralia continentalis and Angelica pubescens f. biserrata show one remarkable peak at Rt 29.023, but Heracleum hemsleyanum do not show. Consequently, Aralia continentalis and Angelica pubescens f. biserrata are comparable whit continentalic acid content and Heracleum hemsleyanum is comparable with the peak at Rt 20.273 and Rt 29.023. So it is thought that content of continentalic acid and the peaks at Rt 20.278 and Rt 29.023 can apply to differentiate a species from other. It is considered the results of this study will be furnished the basis to succeeding studies and it is needed to extensive comparative study for the same genus-degree of relatedness.

본 연구의 목적은 프랙털(fractal)이론을 이용하여 도시공간을 구성하는 요소들의 특성을 반영하면서 도시형태를 정량적으로 측정하여 도시공간구조적 측면에서 그 의미를 알아보고자 하는 것이다. 프랙털이론은 단순히 사물이 공간상에서 차지하는 비율만을 대상으로 하는 밀도와 달리, 도시공간내부에 존재하는 사물들 간의 자기유사성(self-similarity )과 복잡함(complexity )을 양적으로 표현이 가능한 이론이다. 본 연구에서 도시의 형태는 프랙털차원(fractal dimension)으로 계산하여, 이론 적용의 타당성과 실제 도시형태를 비교분석해 보기 위해 도시화가 거의 완성된 북구주시(北九州市)와 지역 대부분이 농지로 구성되어 있는 신궁정(神宮町) 지역을 사례지역으로 하였다. 먼저 GIS 벡터데이터를 레스터데이터로 변환한 다음, 두 사례 지역의 프랙털차원을 계산하였다. 그 결과 북구주지역은 분석면적에 따라 프랙털차원 값에서 차이가 발생하지만, 시전체가 프랙털형상이라고 할 수 있었다. 그러나 신궁정 지역은 프랙털차원의 값이 작아 도시형상이 프랙털이라고 하기 어려운 결과가 도출되었다. 사례연구를 통해 프랙털이론이 도시형태를 정량적으로 측정 가능한 수단임을 알 수 있었으며 또한 구성요소간의 유사성을 반영할 수 있으므로 유사한 도시개발패턴이 이루어지는 경계(예를 들면 도시와 농촌의 경계)를 찾는 데에도 유효하게 사용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

This study examined the human fibroblasts cell attachment to commercially pure titanium surface which had been instrumented by 3 types of periodontal instruments. Commercially pure titanium plates were uniformly scaled using plastic, stainless steel, titanium curette. these all experimental groups 65 undirectional strokes with the designated curettes. Alteration of the surfaces due to instrumentation was evaluated by Form Talysurf(R) and reported as Ra value(mean surface roughness). Then other experimental groups were immersed in a cell suspension of human gingival fibroblasts($1{\times}10^5$ cell/ml). After 3 days of culture, cell attachment and morphology was observed by SEM, and attached cell were counted by Hemocytometer. A significant difference in mean Ra value was observed for surface instrumented by metal curette compared to either control surface or surface instrumented by the plastic curette(P<0.01). No stastically significant difference was noted between control surface and those instrumented by the plastic curette. SEM observation showed that cell morphology and attachment to the commercially pure titanium plate was similar appearance on the all experimental groups. Experimental groups instrumented by titanium curette and stainless steel curette were more attached cell number than control group, but experimental group instrumented by plastic curette were similar with control groups(P<0.01). In summary, metal curette produced an significant alteration of the commercially pure titanium surface and more favorable surface topography for cell attachment. Otherwise plastic curette was insignificantly altered the commercially pure titanium surface(P<0.01).

Osteoporosis has recently been recognized as a major health problem in the elderly population. The disorder is manifested as a loss of bone mass accompanied by structural alteration of bone and increased incidence of fracture. Mandible also may be affected. So, I evaluated panoramic views of 66 postmenopausal women for finding the possibility of useful diagnostic mandibular parmeters of osteoporosis. To know the correlationship between skeleton and mandible, the average of the bone mineral density of lumbar from 2nd to 4th by the dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA, LUNAR DPZ. USA), and age and mandibular parameters, that is, the number of residual teeth, alveolar ridge resorption ratio, panoramic mandibular index (PMI), mandibular cortical width (MCW), angular cortical thickness (ACT), ramus cortical thickness (RCT), morphology of mandibular inferior cortical (MIC) were compared. And I divided the all tested women to the osteoporotic group and non-osteoporotic group by the use of T-score -2.0, which was derived from skeletal bone mineral density (BMD). To find the correlationship of the each group with mandibular parameters, t-test and discriminant analysis were done. The results of the t-test were that all parameters were highly related with 2 groups (p<0.05). Especially ACT, MIC, age have had even higher correlationship than others (p<0.001). The results of the discriminant analysis by the use of these ACT, MIC and age were that the discriminant function was Z = -2.973+(-1.447)$\times$(ACT)+1.131$\times$(MIC score)+(0.052)$\times$(age), the cutting score was 0.257 and the classification accuracy was 84.8%. Therefore I suggest that the consideration of the angular cortical thickness (ACT), the age of patient and the morphology of mandibular inferior cortical(MIC) may help find the osteoporosis.
