The surface of silicon dummy wafers is contaminated with metallic impurities owing to the reaction with and adhesion of chemicals during the oxidation process. These metallic impurities negatively affect the device performance, reliability, and yield. To solve this problem, a wafer-cleaning process that removes metallic impurities is essential. RCA (Radio Corporation of America) cleaning is commonly used, but there are problems such as increased surface roughness and formation of metal hydroxides. Herein, we attempt to use a chelating agent (EDTA) to reduce the surface roughness, improve the stability of cleaning solutions, and prevent the re-adsorption of impurities. The bonding between the cleaning solution and metal powder is analyzed by referring to the Pourbaix diagram. The changes in the ionic conductivity, H2O2 decomposition behavior, and degree of dissolution are checked with a conductivity meter, and the changes in the absorbance and particle size before and after the reaction are confirmed by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) analyses. Thus, the addition of a chelating agent prevents the decomposition of H2O2 and improves the life of the silicon wafer cleaning solution, allowing it to react smoothly with metallic impurities.

Recent Engineered nanoparticles were increasingly exposed to environmental system with the wide application and production of nanomaterials, concerns are increasing about their environmental risk to soil and groundwater system. In order to assess the transport behavior of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), a saturated packed column experiments were examined. Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry and a DLS detector was used for concentration and size measurement of AgNPs. The column experiment results showed that solution chemistry had a considerable temporal deposition of AgNPs on the porous media of solid glass beads. In column experiment, comparable mobility improvement of AgNPs were observed by changing solution chemistry conditions from salts (in both NaCl and $CaCl_2$ solutions) to DI conditions, but in much lower ionic strength (IS) with $CaCl_2$. Additionally, the fitted parameters with two-site kinetic attachment model form the experimental breakthrough curves (BTCs) were associated that the retention rates of the AgNPs aggregates were enhanced with increasing IS under both NaCl and $CaCl_2$ solutions.

Block copolymers consisting of poly(rbenzyl L-glutamate) (PBLG) as the hydrophobic part and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) as the hydrophilic part were synthesized and characterized. Polymeric micelles of the block copolymers (abbreviated GEG) were prepared by a dialysis method. The GEG block copolymers were associated in water to form polymeric micelles, and the critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of the block copolymers decreased with increasing PBLG chain length in the block copolymers. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations revealed polymeric micelles of spherical shapes. From dynamic light scattering (DLS) study, sizes of polymeric micelles of GEG-1, GEG-2, and GEG-3 copolymer were 106.5±59.2 nm, 79.4±46.0 nm, and 37.9±13.3 nm, respectively. The drug loading contents of GEG-1, GEG-2 and GEG-3 polymeric micelles were 12.6, 11.9, and 11.0 wt %, respectively. These results indicated that the drugloading contents were dependent on PBLG chain length in the copolymer; the longer the PBLG chain length, the more the drug-loading contents. Release of norfloxacin (NFX) from the nanoparticles was slower in higher loading contents of NFX than in lower loading contents due to the hydrophobic interaction between PBLG core and NFX.

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are some of the most efficient electrochemical energy sources for transportation applications because of their clean, green, and high efficiency characteristics. The optimization of catalyst layer morphology is considered a feasible approach to achieve high performance of PEMFC membrane electrode assembly (MEA). In this work, we studied the effect of the solvent on the catalyst layer of PEMFC MEAs fabricated using the electrostatic spray deposition method. The catalyst ink comprised of Pt/C, a Nafion ionomer, and a solvent. Two types of solvent were used: isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and dimethylformamide (DMF). Compared with the catalyst layer prepared using IPA-based ink, the catalyst layer prepared with DMF-based ink had a dense structure because the DMF dispersed the Pt/C-Nafion agglomerates smaller and more homogeneously. The size distribution of the agglomerates in catalyst ink was confirmed through Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and the microstructure of the catalyst layer was compared using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In addition, the electrochemical investigation was performed to evaluate the solvent effect on the fuel cell performance. The catalyst layer prepared with DMF-based ink significantly enhanced the cell performance (1.2 A cm-2 at 0.5 V) compared with that fabricated using IPA-based ink (0.5 A cm-2 at 0.5 V) due to the better dispersion and uniform agglomeration on the catalyst layer.

We studied on the reverse twist near the pixel edge depending on the rubbing direction for the fringe field switching (FFS) mode. Liquid crystal (LC) dynamic and the transmittance near the pixel edge, where the various field directions are generated, depend on the initial rubbing direction because the position of reverse twist is decided by the angle between the electric direction and the LC director at a bias voltage. For example, when the rubbing angle is $7^{\circ}$, the reverse twist appears on the bottom position of the right sharp comer of the pixel edge so that the reverse region exists far away from main active region. But, when the rubbing angle is $-7^{\circ}$, the reverse twist appears on the top position of the right sharp comer of the pixel edge, resulting that the region becomes more close to the main active area and the unstable disclination lines (DLs) easily intrude into the active region. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the reverse twist region far from the active region and it is possible by controlling the rubbing direction in the design of a pixel electrode.

CdS 양자점 입자는 특정 파장의 빛을 방출하는 반도체 나노 결정으로 이러한 광학적 특성 때문에 질병 진단 시약, 광학기술, 미디어 산업 및 태양전지와 같은 다양한 분야에서 응용되는 물질이다. 방출하는 빛의 색은 입자의 크기에 의존하기 때문에 CdS 양자점 입자의 크기 및 크기분포를 정확하게 분석하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 CdS 양자점 입자를 감마-선 조사법(${\gamma}$-ray irradiation method)을 이용하여 합성하고, 크기 및 크기 분포도를 결정하기 위하여 침강 장-흐름 분획법 (SdFFF)를 이용하였다. 침강 장-흐름 분획법을 이용한 CdS 양자점 입자의 정확한 분석을 위하여 분석조건의 최적화(유속, 외부장 세기, field-programming)에 대하여 조사되었다. 투과 전자 현미경(transmission electron microscopy, TEM)으로 확인된 단일 입자의 크기는 ~4 nm 였으며, 단일 입자의 응집으로 생성된 2차 입자 크기의 평균은 159 nm로 확인되었다. 첨가된 입자 안정제의 농도가 증가할수록 CdS 양자점 입자의 크기가 감소하는 경향성을 확인하였다. 침강 장-흐름 분획법, 투과 전자 현미경, 그리고 동적 광 산란법(dynamic light scattering, DLS)으로 결정된 CdS 양자점 크기는 각각 126, 159, 그리고 152 nm 였다. 본 연구의 결과로 침강 장-흐름 분획법은 비교적 넓은 크기분포를 갖는 다양한 종류의 무기입자의 크기 및 크기 분포도를 결정하는데 유용한 방법임을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 생태적, 생리적 특성이 다른 콩5품종, 즉 조숙성의 예계 7003, SS79168 및 만숙성의 동북 7006, 백운콩, 장백콩을 공시하여 등숙기간중 영양영리학적인 관점에서 근과 근류의 당함량과 질소고정활성과의 관련성을 해명하기 위하여 Acetylene 환원능 (ARA ) 등을 조사하였다. 기히 공시품종중 예계 7003는 노화가 지연되는 특성(delayed leaf sen-escence, DLS )을 갖는 품종이다. 본보에서는 얻어진 결과중 근 및 근류 당의 경시적 변동과 질소고정활성과의 관계를 보고하며 이를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 조숙성 품종에서의 근중 환원당 농도는 $R_{7}$까지 변화 없이 경과하다가 다소 상승하는 경향이 인정되었다. 만숙성 품종에서는 $R_{6}$ 까지 상승하고, 그 후 급등히 저하하였다. 근의 비환원당 농도는 DLS 의 예계7003 이외 품종에서는 $R_{6}$ 까지 큰 변화가 없었고, 그 후 급속히 감소하였으나 엽신의 황화가 지연된 예계7003에서는 그 저하가 인정되지 아니하였다. 2. 근류의 환원당 농도는 품종의 조만성에 관계없이 $R_{6}$ 까지 커다란 변화는 없었고, 그 직후 질소고정활성의 급격한 저하가 나타난 $R_{6.5}$ 에서 일시적으로 상승하였다. 이것은 질소고정활성이 에너지원(당)의 공급조건에 의하여 규제될 뿐만 아니라, 고정질소에 대한 요구성에 의하여도 좌우되기 때문에 생긴 현상이라고 판단된다. 근류의 비환원당농도는 어느 품종에서도 $R_{6}$ ~ $R_{6.5}$ 까지는 상승 경향을 보인 후 $R_{7}$ 에서 저하하고 있어 환원당에서와 같은 추론이 가능하다.

Water soluble polymer, poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) was chosen to conjugate with 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-(succinyl) (N-succinyl DPPE) to make a new drug delivery system. PVP with an amine group (amino-PVP) was polymerized by free radical polymerization. The amine group of amino-PVP was conjugated with the carboxylic group of N-succinyl DPPE. The resultant conjugate could form nanoparticles in the aqueous solution; these nanoparticles were termed a lipid-polymer system. The critical aggregation concentration was measured with pyrene to give a value of $1{\times}10^{-3}g/L$. The particle size of the lipid-polymer system, as measured by DLS, AFM and TEM, was about 70 nm. Lipophilic component in the inner part of the lipid-polymer system could derive the physical interaction with hydrophobic drugs. Griseofulvin was used as a model drug in this study. The loading efficiency and release profile of the drug were measured by HPLC. The loading efficiency was about 54%. The release behavior was sustained for a prolonged time of 12 days. The proposed lipid-polymer system with biodegradable and biocompatible properties has promising potential as a passive-targeting drug delivery carrier because of its small particle size.
