  • Cyclic AMP receptor proteins(CRP) activate many genes in Escherichia coli by binding of cAMP with not fully known mechanism. CRP existed as apo-CRP in the absence of cAMP, $CRP;(cAMP)_2$$_2$ at low(micromolar) cAMP concentration, or $CRP;(cAMP)_4$ at high(millimolar) concentration of cAMP. This study is designed to measure the thermal stability of S83G CRP, which substituted glycine for serine at amino acid 83 position, with CD spectrapolarimeter at 222nm by the constant elevation of temperature from $20^{\circ]C\; to\; 90^{\circ}C\; at\; 1^{\circ}C/min$. The non-linear regression analysis showed that melting temperatures were 68.4, 72.0, and $82.3^{\circ}C$ for no cAMP, 0.1mM cAMP, and 5mM cAMP, respectively. Result showed the strong thermal stability of CRP by binding of additional cAMP molecules to region between the hinge region and helix-turn-helix(HTH) motif at 5mM cAMP concentration.

  • 다성분 탄성파 자료의 신호/잡음비를 높이기 위한 방법의 일환으로 다성분 복소트레이스 분석법을 이용한 분극필터를 개발하였다. 이 필터는 기존의 방법과는 달리, 실체파 신호의 수평/수직 진폭비와 레일리파 타원율을 이용하여 각 시간 샘플의 선형 및 타원형 성분이 정량적으로 계산되며 낮은 신호/잡음비에도 이상적으로 작동하는 특징이 있다. 합성파 뿐만 아니라 실제 자료에 적용시킨 결과, 기존 분극필터보다 타원형 입자운동의 레일리파가 잘 제거되어 선형의 P파 및 S파 신호를 효과적으로 인지할 수 있음을 보인다.

  • 본 논문에서는, 무선 전력전송 방식을 이용한 이동로봇의 자동 충전 시스템을 개발한다. 기존 이동로봇의 자동 충전이 기구적 접촉에 의해 이루어졌던 것에 비해, 무선 전력전송을 이용한 충전 방법은 전자기 유도 방식에 의한 비접촉 충전시스템이다. 이 방식은 송수신 코일이 바른 위치에 정렬되어야만 효율적인 충전이 가능하다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위하여, 영상정보를 통해 충전시스템의 원형 송신 코일의 변형률을 인식하여, 효율적인 자동충전이 가능하도록 이동로봇의 자세를 제어한다.

  • PMAP-23 is a 23-residue antimicrobial peptide derived from porcine myloid cells. In order to investigate the effects of two Pro residues at positions 12 and 15 of PMAP-23 on antibiotic activity, two analogues in which Ala was substituted for Pro residue at position 12 or 15 were synthesized. $Pro^{12}{\rightarrow}Ala$ (PMAPl) or $Pro^{15}{\rightarrow}Ala$(PMAP2) substitution in PMAP-23 caused a significant reduction on antitumor and phospholipid vesicle-disrupting activities, but did not cause a significant effect on antibacterial activity. PMAP-23 displayed the type I ${\beta}-turn$ structure with a negative ellipticity at near 205 om in SDS micelle, whereas PMAP1 and PMAP2 had a somewhat ${\alpha}-helical$ propensity in TFE solution, as compared to PMAP-23. These results suggest that two Pro residues of positions 12 and 15 in PMAP-23 play important roles in the formation of ${\beta}-turn$ structure on lipid membrane and its ${\beta}-turn$ structure may be essential for antibiotic activity including phospholipid vesicle-disrupting property.

  • Heteromagnetic nanostructures, which consist of two or more different layers such as nonmagnet, insulator, ferromagnet, antiferromagnet, and superconductor, have been widely used in current and likely future spintronics devices. Their many intriguing magnetic properties are originated from a variety of magnetic interactions at relevant length scales at or near interfaces and between different constituent layers as well as laterally different regions in chemical and magnetic heterogeneity. The fundamental properties can thus differ along depth and laterally in the film plane, depending on their relevant coupling length scales. The entire properties may be characterized by interface properties and/or the depth-varying properties of the individual constituent layers, and lateral inhomogeneity as well. It is a challenge to investigate both depth-varying properties and lateral heterogeneity in such heteromagnetic nanostructures. In this talk, soft x-ray magneto-optical effect as a nanometer scale probe of a variety of heteromagnetic structures is presented and its related noble techniques are introduced. For instances, magnetization vector imaging to investigate vector spin configurations in the film plane is presented, as well as the Kerr rotation, ellipticity, and intensity measurements as a depth sensitive probe on the atomic scales.

  • Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography using 13.5 nm wavelengths is expected to be adopted as a mass production technology for 32 nm half pitch and below. One of the new issues introduced by EUV lithography is the shadowing effect. Mask shadowing is a unique phenomenon caused by using mirror-based mask with an oblique incident angle of light. This results in a horizontal-vertical (H-V) biasing effect and ellipticity in the contact hole pattern. To minimize the shadowing effect, a refilled mask is an available option. The concept of refilled mask structure can be implemented by partial etching into the multilayer and then refilling the trench with an absorber material. The simulations were carried out to confirm the possibility of application of refilled mask in 32 nm line-and-space pattern under the condition of preproduction tool. The effect of sidewall angle in refilled mask is evaluated on image contrast and critical dimension (CD) on the wafer. We also simulated the effect of refilled absorber thickness on aerial image, H-V CD bias, and overlapping process window. Finally, we concluded that the refilled absorber thickness for minimizing shadowing effect should be thinner than etched depth.

  • In this paper, we investigate the correlation between the radial ultraviolet color distribution and the shapes of the ultraviolet isophote for elliptical galaxies (M32, NGC 1399) and spiral bulges (of M31, M81) by using their archival UIT images. For M31, M81, and NGC 1399, the radial ultraviolet color distributions show a two-component trend; as the distance from the galactic center increase the color becomes redder in the inner region while it becomes bluer in the outer region. On the other hand, the color of M32 continues to become bluer with the increasing galactocentric distance. We also find, unlike the optical/IR images, significant variations of the position angle and the ellipticity in the ultraviolet isophotes of M31, M81, and NGC 1399 through the inner regions. For M32, the variation is significant in the outer region. Since these variation implies the triaxiality of their intrinsic shapes, we suggest that the early-type galaxies and spiral bulges with a radial color gradient in ultraviolet tend to have a triaxiality. On the other hand, the shape parameter characterized by the fourth order cosine Fourier coefficient of the isophote, a(4)/a, indicates that the systematic deviations of the ultraviolet isophotes of the four galaxies are smaller than $\~0.2\%$ in units of the semi-major axis. The latter result implies that the ultraviolet isophotes of the galaxies have a pure elliptical shape rather than the boxy or disky shapes. Therefore, there is no clear evidence of correlation between the radial ultra-violet color gradient and the boxy/disky shapes of isophotes.

  • Additional magnetooptical Kerr effect (AMOKE) was observed in several multilayer structures. For Fe/Pd and Co/Cu Multilayers, AMOKE enhanced the Kerr rotation in short wavelength side, while for Fe/Ag and FeSi/Cu multilayer systems the Kerr rotation enhancement appeared in long wavelength side. A number of ferromagnetic/nonmagnetic/ferromagnetic(FM/NM/FM) sandwiches showed that the AMOKE led to oscillations of Kerr rotation and Kerr ellipticity in certain wavelength range with changing NM layer thickness similar to the oscillatory interlayer coupling. The oscillation of effective optical constants related to the MOKE oscillation was observed for the first time. The mechanisms of the AMOKE were discussed.

  • Halobacterium halobium으로부터 분리 정제된 퍼플멤브레인을 7.5% 폴리아크릴아미드겔에 혼합시켰다. 이 겔을 사용하여 pH 변화에 따른 흡수 스펙트라와 원편광 이색성스펙트라를 얻었다. pH 7.0에서 보여준 이들 스펙트라의 성질들은 수용액내에 부유하고 있는 퍼플멤브레인으로부터 얻은 것들과 동일하였다. pH 2.7에서는 최대흡광도를 605nm에서 나타내었으며 pH 0.8에서는 565nm에서 보여주었다. 광에 노출되지 않았던 겔의 경우는 광에 노출되었던 겔과는 달리 등흡광점을 보여주었다. pH 2.7과 pH 0.8에서 측정한 원편광 이색성스펙트라는 pH 7.0에서 보여준 bilobed형을 유지하였으며 UV영역에서 분자편광도나 스펙트라의 모양도 pH에 따라 큰 영향을 받지 않았다. pH 2.7에서 생성된 bR605acid 가 퍼플멤브레인의 정상 광화학 순환기 중간 생성물인 $O^{640}$와 유사한 성질을 가진종이 아닐까 추측된다.

  • Stack-and-draw 방법을 사용하여 새로운 구조의 높은 복굴절을 가진 광자 결정 광섬유(highly birefringent photonic crystal fiber, Hi-Bi PCF)를 제작하였다. 제작된 광섬유는 공기구멍으로 구성된 클래딩 외부에 큰 공기구멍을 추가함으로써 광섬유 인출 과정중에 코어와 공기층 클래딩 영역에 비대칭적인 압력이 인가되어 코어가 타원형으로 변형되어 복굴절이 유도된다. 제작된 Hi-Bi PCF의 복굴절은 1550 nm에서 $2.29{\times}10^{-4}$로 측정되었다.
