We have developed low voltage driving red phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices using a new electron transport layer. $Ir(piq)_3$ and CBP were used as a phosphorescent dopant and an emission host, respectively. The device exhibits a luminance of $1000\;cd/m^2$ at a voltage of 2.8 V. This high luminance at low voltage results from a high electron conduction behavior of the new electron transport layer.

Orange-yellow phosphor has been synthesized by solid-state method for inorganic EL devices. Zinc sulfide is used as host material for the phosphor and the phosphor consists of copper and manganese as activators. The dependence of the photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence(EL) properties on the copper and manganese concentrations has been investigated.

전 세계 인구의 1/3을 감염시키고 있는 결핵균은 21세기에도 인류를 위협하는 병원균이다. 결핵균에 대항하는 Th1 면역 반응은 결핵균의 세포 내 성장을 제어하는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 이는 결핵균 감염을 자연 치유하는 수준에는 미치지 못한다. 본 연구에서는 C57BL/6 마우스에 병원성 결핵균인 H37Rv를 감염시켰을 때 숙주의 면역 반응에 대항하여 결핵균이 자신의 유전자 발현을 변화시킨다는 사실을 규명하기 위하여, 결핵균 유전자 중 16S rRNA, acr, fbpA, aceA, ahpC 등의 발현을 real-time RT-PCR을 이용하여 연구하였다. 16S rRNA의 copy number는 감염 후 30일까지 급격하게 증가하였는데 이는 CFU 측정 결과와 일치하고 있다. 결핵균 유전자 중 주된 항원으로 작용하는 유전자인 fbpA의 copy number를 CFU로 나눈 값으로 표현한 발현 양상은 감염 후 10일까지 증가하다가 감소되었다. Heat shock protein인 ${\alpha}$-crystallin을 coding하는 acr은 감염 후 지속적으로 높아졌으나, 산화적 스트레스 환경에서 발현되는 효소들인 ahpC와 aceA의 발현은 감염 후 20일 동안 높아졌다가 30일에는 약간 감소하였으나 비교적 높은 수준을 유지하였다. 이상의 결과는 결핵균이 숙주의 면역 반응이 개시되면 결핵균의 주된 항원 중 하나인 Ag85A를 코딩하는 유전자인 fbpA의 발현 수준을 낮춰 숙주의 Th1 먼역 반응이 낮아지도록 유도한다는 증거로 볼 수 있으며, 면역 반응이 활발해 짐에 따라 큰포식세포 내에서 산화적 스트레스로부터 균을 보호하기 위하여 ahpC와 aceA의 발현이 높아진 것으로 해석된다. 따라서 본 연구는 결핵균이 유전자 발현을 숙주의 면역 반응에 대항하여 스스로 변화시켜 적대적인 숙주 세포 내에서 살아 남을 수 있는 생존 전략을 구사한다는 가능성을 제시한다.

A trap identification system for isolating functional sequences to allow the constitutive expression of foreign protein from Edwardsiella tarda was developed. Using the green fluorescent protein (GFP) reporter-based trap system, various functional sequences to drive heterologous expression of the GFP were selectable in Escherichia coli host. However from the bioinformatic sequence analysis, all the segments predicted as regulatory regions were not native promoters actually existing upstream of endogenous E. tarda genes. Instead, a number of non-authentic sequences, possibly resulted from the random shuffling and/or intermolecular ligation were also proven to be able to display a potent GFP expression in the recombinant E. coli. Further analysis with selected clones showed that both authentic and non-authentic sequences could function in as a constitutive promoter, leading quite a consistent and stable GFP expression after repetitive subcultures. Microscopic examination also confirmed the uniform pattern of GFP expression in every host bacterium. Semi-quantitative assay of GFP showed that there was no clear relationship between expression levels and organizational features of the promoters trapped. Functional promoter-like elements achieved in the present study could be a good starting material for multivalent genetic engineering of E. tarda in order to produce recombinant vaccines in a cost-effective fashion.

In generally, the guest-emitter doped system has been reported to give a bright electroluminescence(EL). The purpose of using doped system is to improve for increasing lifetime and efficiency, and tuning multicolor light. This indicates an enhanced electron-hole recombination rate in emitting layer. The purpose of this study is to obtain the high performance EL devices for flat panel display with red emission. We fabricated EL devices using the guest-host system. where DCM derivatives were taken as a dopant. The devices are fabricated in multilayer system with various concentration of the dopant (red light emitting dye). We measured the I-V characteristics and EL spectra from these devices. and we compared with photoluminescence(PL) quantum yield among the DCM derivatives. The emission mechanism of devices is participated in energy transfer. The energy transfer from these hosts to DCM generates luminescence spectra that vary from yellow red to red, depending on DCM derivatives. Absorption and emission spectra of organic materials composing the devices depend on the emission materials doped with the DCM derivatives. We demonstrated that the high EL efficiency can be achieved by doping host material with DCM derivatives and molecular steric structures

For possible applications as luminescent materials for white-light emission using UV-LEDs, $Ba_2Mg(PO_4)_2:Eu^{2+}$ phosphors were prepared by a solid state reaction. The photoluminescence properties of the phosphor were investigated under ultraviolet ray (UV) excitation. The prepared phosphor powders were characterized to from a single phase of a monoclinic crystalline structure by a powder X-ray diffraction analysis. In the photoluminescence spectra, the $Ba_2Mg(PO_4)_2:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor showed an intense emission band centered at the 584 nm wavelength due to the f-d transition of the $Eu^{2+}$ activator. The optimum concentration of $Eu^{2+}$ activator in the $Ba_2Mg(PO_4)_2$ host, indicating the maximum emission intensity under the excitation of a 395 nm wavelength, was 5 at%. In addition, it was confirmed that the $Eu^{2+}$ ions are substituted at both $Ba^{2+}$ sites in the $Ba_2Mg(PO_4)_2$ crystal. On the other hand, the critical distance of energy transfer between $Eu^{2+}$ ions in the $Ba_2Mg(PO_4)_2$ host was evaluated to be approximately 19.3 A. With increasing temperature, the emission intensity of the $Ba_2Mg(PO_4)_2$:Eu phosphor was considerably decreased and the central wavelength of the emission peak was shifted toward a short wavelength.

Background: In chronic hepatitis B (CHB), the presence of hepatic steatosis (HS) seems to be associated with known host and viral factors which may influence the long-term prognosis of chronic hepatitis B (CHB), probably leading to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Different from chronic hepatitis C (CHC), factors associated with HS in CHB are not clearly explored. Materials and Methods: 160 CHB patients were divided into two groups depending on the results of liver biopsy. Group I consisted of 71 patients with confirmed steatosis. Group II comprised 89 patients without steatosis. The groups were compared in terms of basal characteristics, body mass index (BMI), liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP), serum fasting blood sugar (FBS) and lipids, hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), viral load, and histological findings. Results: In terms of host factors, male gender, older age, BMI, high serum FBS and lipid levels were associated with HS. On the other hand, ALT levels, the HAI scores of necroinflammation and stage of fibrosis did not associate with HS. On multivariate analysis, parameters of sex, BMI, cholesterol and FBS levels were independently associated with HS. Regarding viral factors, HBeAg negativity was significantly associated with HS (81.7%, p value 0.006), but not HBV DNA level (p value 0.520). Conclusions: HS in CHB appears to be unrelated to the status of HBV replication. However, fibrosis progression in CHB is related to variable host factors. HS may be enhanced through these factors in HBV chronic patients.

본 연구에서는 구조물에 부착된 분포형 광섬유 센서의 변형률을 정밀하게 분석하기 위해 위치에 따른 변형률의 변화를 고려하여 광섬유 센서의 변형률 전달률을 분석하였다. 표면에 부착된 코팅된 광섬유 센서의 모델로부터 해석적으로 광섬유 센서의 변형률 전달률을 유도하였으며, 유도된 변형률 전달률은 유한요소해석을 통해 수치적으로 해석한 결과와 비교 검증하였다. 주 구조물의 변형률이 동일한 파장을 가지며 변하는 경우 센서의 변형률 전달률은 위치에 따라 동일한 값을 보였으며, 따라서 변형률 분포의 형상은 왜곡되지 않는다. 하지만 위치에 따라 변형률 파장이 변하면 변형률의 전달률이 위치에 따라 달라져 변형률 분포의 형상이 왜곡될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 얻어진 파장에 따른 변형률 전달률은 분포형 광섬유 센서로부터 주 구조물의 변형률 분포를 정밀하게 추정하는데 유용하게 사용될 것으로 기대된다.

Long lasting phosphor materials are in great demand for their applications in the area of light emitting diodes (LEDs), commercial displays and warning signals. After glow longevity, brightness, photo-resistance and chemical and environment stability are most important qualities that are desired for these materials. Alumina as host lattice with various rare earth elements has been found to be good at the same time inexpensive material for the synthesis of the phosphor materials. This communication explored the effect of mixed rare earth metal on the luminescence properties of these materials for the first time. Various permutations and combinations of $Sr^{2+}$ and $Ba^{2+}$ have been investigated in order to achieve robust and high luminescence characteristics in the tailored phosphor materials.
