The exciplex fluorescence technique with the TMPD (tetamethyl-Ρ-phenylene-diamine) / naphthalene dopant system was applied in a combustion-type constant-volume spray chamber. A detailed set of calibration experiments has been performed in order to quantify the TMPD fluorescence signal. It has been demonstrated that the TMPD fluorescence intensity was directly proportional to concentration, was independent of the chamber pressure, and was not sensitive to quenching by either water vapor or carbon dioxide. Using a dual heated-jet experiment, the temperature dependence of TMPD fluorescence up to 1000 K was measured. The temperature field in the spray images was determined using a simple mixing model, and an iterative solution method was used to determine the concentration and temperature field including the additional effects of the laser sheet extinction. The integrated fuel vapor concentration compared favorably with the measured amount of injected fuel when all of the liquid fuel had evaporated.

Recently, with the rapid development of the waveguide division multiplexing (WDM) systems for large capacity and flexibility of information network, the broad band 1.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ erbium-doped waveguide amplifier (EDWA) become important. The main factors affecting the performance of sol-gel-based waveguides are non-radiative relaxation channels due to rare-earth concentration quenching and to vibration of the OH groups Therefore, the sol-gel process has to be carefully controlled in order to minimize the residual OH content.

In this paper, a renovated approach in the fabrication of red organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is described. The hard-to-control doping process required for dopant-based red OLEDs can be avoided due to the novel red fluorophores that are not concentration quenching in solid state. Doping is in general a must for phosphorescence OLEDs because of the triplet-triplet annihilation, a common problem for phosphorophore dopants. However, we have recently found that extraordinary red iridium complex showing relatively short emission lifetime render the non-doped phosphorescence red OLED possible.

The photoreaction of maleimide, one of the best model compounds of DNA molecules for psoralen-DNA photoreactions, is studied in order to investigate the photoreactivity and the mechanism of the maleimide-psoralen photoreaction. The (2+2) photocyclodimer of maleimide was obtained in solution state by direct or sensitized irradiation. The rate constant of dimerization is determined by quenching studies and found to be of the order of $10^9 M^{-1}sec^{-1}$. The direct dimerization of maleimide is found to undergo through the triplet excited state. The quantum yields of dimerization are dependent on the maleimide concentration.

Constituents of several .representative seaweeds, such as wakame Undaria pinnatifida; hijikia Hizikia fusifome; and kombu Laminaria japonica, were found to have fairly large reaction rates determined by quenching experiments of emission spectra in the near-infrared region (1max: 1270 nm) from singlet oxygen (102). Emission spectra of singlet oxygen generated from an aqueous solution of Rose Bengal under irradiation with a green laser (330 nm) were measured by a near-infrared (NIR) emission spectrometer constructed in our laboratory. The quenching experiments were as follows: Intensities of emission spectra were measured in the absence (I0) and in the presence of the seaweed constituents (I): Ratios of I0/I were plotted against every concentration of the quenchers (Stern-Volmer plots) which gives a straight line. The slope of each line gives a kqt value which gives a quenching constant kq value (an antioxidative constant against singlet oxygen) when the t value (half-life time of singlet oxygen in the solvent used) was given. The determined reaction rates are between 103-105 (g/l)-ls-1; the larger ones are as large as that of ascorbic acid, 8.4 ${\times}$ 104 (g/1)-ls-1. Most of these seaweed constituents also showed antioxidative activity against auto-oxidation and superoxide as well as their immunological enhancing activity. These results suggest a possibility that dietary fibers which are supposed to prevent the large-intestine cancer by their physical properties may prevent the cancer, at least in parts, by their chemical, antioxidative activity.

미립 금속분체에 대한 산업 수요 증가와 함께, 퇴적 금속분의 착화에 의한 화재, 폭발사고가 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 퇴적 금속분체의 화재, 폭발 위험특성을 조사하기 위하여 새로운 실험장치를 개발하였다. 금속분(Mg, Zr, Ta, Ti) 및 PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate)분진을 사용하여, 연소 거동(소염거리, 화염전파속도) 및 화염전파에 미치는 $N_2$ 치환 분위기 농도의 영향 등을 실험적으로 상세히 조사하였다. 실험결과로부터, 퇴적 금속 분체의 화염전파속도는 PMMA보다 크고, 화염전파속도의 퇴적층 두께에 대한 의존성은 작으며, 질소 치환 분위기에서의 Mg의 한계 산소 농도는 3.6-3.7 vol%로 나타났다. 퇴적금속 분체층의 화염전파속도와 소염거리 역수는 높은 상관관계를 가지고 있으며, 이들 연소성 지표에 있어서 상대적인 위험성의 예측이 가능하다.

Bacteria recognize changes in their population density by sensing the concentration of signal molecules, N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs). AHL-mediated quorum sensing (QS) plays a key role in biofilm formation, so the interference of QS, referred to as quorum quenching (QQ), has received a great deal of attention. A QQ strategy can be applied to membrane bioreactors (MBRs) for advanced wastewater treatment to control biofouling. To isolate QQ bacteria that can inhibit biofilm formation, we isolated diverse AHL-degrading bacteria from a laboratory-scale MBR and sludge from real wastewater treatment plants. A total of 225 AHL-degrading bacteria were isolated from the sludge sample by enrichment culture. Afipia sp., Acinetobacter sp. and Streptococcus sp. strains produced the intracellular QQ enzyme, whereas Pseudomonas sp., Micrococcus sp. and Staphylococcus sp. produced the extracellular QQ enzyme. In case of Microbacterium sp. and Rhodococcus sp., AHL-degrading activities were detected in the whole-cell assay and Rhodococcus sp. showed AHL-degrading activity in cell-free lysate as well. There has been no report for AHL-degrading capability in the case of Streptococcus sp. and Afipia sp. strains. Finally, inhibition of biofilm formation by isolated QQ bacteria or enzymes was observed on glass slides and 96-well microtiter plates using crystal violet staining. QQ strains or enzymes not only inhibited initial biofilm development but also reduced established biofilms.

In the present experimental study, the effect of water-based iron(III) oxide nanofluid on the MFB(Minimum Film Boiling) point during quenching was investigated. As the highly heated test specimen, the cylindrical stainless steel rod was used, and as the test fluids, the water-based iron(III) oxide nanofluids of 0.001 and 0.01 vol% concentrations were prepared with the pure water. To examine the effect of location in the test specimen, the thermocouples were installed at the bottom and middle of wall, and center in the test specimen. Through a series of experiments, the experimental data about the influences of nanofluid concentrations, the number of repeated experiments, and locations in the test specimen on the reaching time to MFB point, MFBT(Minimum Film Boiling Temperature), and MHF(Minimum Heat Flux) were obtained. As a result, with increasing the concentration of nanofluid and the number of repeated experiments, the reaching time to MFB point was reduced, but the MFBT and MHF were increased. In addition, it was found that the effect of water-based iron(III) oxide nanofluid on the MFB point at the bottom of wall in the test specimen was observed to be greater than that at the middle of wall and center. In the present experimental ranges, as compared with the pure water, the water-based iron(III) oxide nanofluid showed that the maximum reduction of reaching time to MFB point was about 53.6%, and the maximum enhancements of MFBT and MHF were about 31.1% and 73.4%, respectively.

본 연구에서 Poly(ethylene-co-vinylalcohol) EVOH 중공사막은 열유도상분리(TIPS)법을 이용하여 제조하였다. 다양한 조건에서 제조된 모든 분리막에서 액-액 상분리에 의해 기공이 서로 연결되어 있는 스폰지 구조가 관찰되었다. 글리세롤과 PEG200은 TIPS 방법에서 희석제로 사용하였고, 냉각조에 글리세롤을 혼합한 냉매를 사용하여 중공사 외표면의 기공을 조절하였다. 또한 혼합냉매의 온도를 높여 큰 기공의 형성을 유도하였다. 본 연구에서는 고분자의 농도, 희석제, 냉각조의 영향에 따른 분리막의 구조, 투과도, 기계적 강도에 대해 실험을 통해 알아보고 상호관계에 대해 심도 있게 연구하였다.
