Metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCYD) techniques have been applied to fabricate semiconducting ZnO thin films and nanostructures, which are promising for novel optoelectronic device applications using their unique multifunctional properties. The growth and characterization of ZnO thin films on Si and $SiO_2$ substrates by MOCYD as fundamental study to realize ZnO nanostructures was carried out. The precise control of initial nucleation processes was found to be a key issue for realizing high quality epitaxial layers on the substrates. In addition, fabrication and characterization of ZnO nanodots with low-dimensional characteristics have been investigated to establish nanostructure blocks for ZnO-based nanoscale device application. Systematic realization of self- and artificially-controlled ZnO nanodots on $SiO_2/Si$ substrates was proposed and successfully demonstrated utilizing MOCYD in addition with a focused ion beam technique.

Allometry, basal area equations, and volume equations were developed with various tree measurement variables for the major species, Quercus mongolica and Quercus variabilis, in Korean natural hardwood forests. For allometry models, the relationships between total height-DBH, crown width-DBH, height to the widest portion of the crown-total height, and height to base of crown-total height were investigated. Multiple regression methods were used to relate annual basal area growth to tree variables of initial size (DBH, total height, crown width) and relative size (relative diameter, relative height) as well as competition measures (competition index, crown class, exposed crown area, percent exposed crown area, live crown ratio). For tree volume equations, the combined-variable and Schumacher models were fitted with DBH, total height and crown width for both species.

Melt-textured growth of the YBa2Cu3O7-x phase from a supercooled melt created locally aligned, barshaped grains of the orthorhombic 1-2-3 phase. Based on all the observed phenomena, the gross mechanism of the melt-textrued growth of YBa2Cu3O7-x on the (100) plane of MgO was delineated by three basic patterns of reactions. These are : (ⅰ) formation of the aligned 1-2-3 phase and the Y-rich 2-1-1 phase at the bulk region away from the (100) plane of MgO ; (ⅱ) formation of the Cu-richprecipitates at the interfacial region by the selective interface-induced precipitation of the liquid phase ; (ⅲ) condensation reaction of the entrapped Cu-rich vapor with Mg atoms during the initial stage of rapid cooling from 130$0^{\circ}C$ to 98$0^{\circ}C$.

Though the magnitude is decreasing, the compressive residual stress is always distributed during fatigue crack growth near the crack tip. This means that the residual stress is released during fatigue crack growth due to the alternative load. ${\Delta}K_{IV}$ is modified by using the initial residual stress and the redistributed residual stress in uniform and various thickness welded specimens. The former is denoted by ${\Delta}K_{IV.eff.i}$ and the latter is denoted by ${\Delta}K_{IV.eff.i}$. ${\Delta}K_{IV.eff.i}$ gives more accurate relations in da/dN vs. ${\Delta}K_{IV}$ curve, however the difference is very small.

The growth of tree is affected by voltage, frequency, temperature, mechanical stress, etc.. This paper describes the effect of applied voltage on the growth of tree in DGEBA/MDA/GN(10 phr) system. As applied voltage increased, the time to breakdown of the system reduced. As applied time increased, the tree length of X-axis increased with sigmoid shape, however, the tree length of Y-axis increased sharply at the initial step and then were nearly constant. The phenomena of tree were complicated more and more, as applied time increased.

High quality epitaxial Y2O3 thin films were prepared on Si(111) and (001) substaretes by using ion beam assisted deposition. As a substrate, clean and chemically oxidized Si wafers were used and the effects of surface state on the film crystallinity were investigated. The crystalline quality of the films were estimated by x-ray scattering, rutherford backscattering spectroscopy/channeling, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The interaction between Y and Si atoms interfere the nucleation of Y2O3 at the initial growth stage, it could be suppressed by the interface SiO2 layer. Therefore, SiO2 layer of the 4-6 layers, which have been known for hindering the crystal growth, could rather enhance the nucleation of the Y2O3 , and the high quality epitaxial film could be grown successfully. Electrical properties of Y2O3 films on Si(001) were measured by C-V and I-V, which revealed that the oxide trap charge density of the film was 1.8$\times$10-8C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the breakdown field strength was about 10MV/cm.

An experimental and analytical investigation is performed to study the buckling behavior of composite laminates with an embedded delamination. It is of particular interest to veryfy whether delamination growth cddurs with continuming deformation after buckling of composite laminates with an embedded delamination. Experiments are conducted for [0/sub 4///90/sub 8//0/sub 4/]/sub r/ laminates with delamination size in which local buckling mode governs buckling. Results show that delamination growth occurs in hgigher load after buckling and is accompanid by other damage mechanisms such as splitting. Also, it is found that transverse deformation before difurcation buckling is due to initial imperfection and structure such as plate with small bending stiffness is sensitive to that.

The amino acid threonine was produced from glycine and ethanol in a reaction mixture using resting cells of a newly isolated gram-negative methylotrophic bacterium, capable of growth on methanol. The isolate could utilize $C_1$ compounds and a variety of multicarbon substrates as sole carbon and energy source. To obtain cells of isolate with high threonine producing activity, we investigated optimum cultural conditions. Optimal growth was at the initial concentration of 0.5%(v/v) methanol, at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0. The growth was not affected by antibiotics inhibiting cell wall synthesis, but was completely suppressed by those inhibiting protein synthesis. The optimum reaction conditions from threonine production by resting cells of this strain were found.

Polymeric nanoparticles composed of polystyrene (PS) as core and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) as corona were prepared by the dispersion copolymerization. The potential of the nanoparticles as carriers for recombinant human epidermal growth factor (EGF) was investigated. The nanoparticles showed monodispersity and good water-dispersibility. The loading content of EGF to the nanoparticles was very high due to electrostatic interaction between EGF and nanoparticles. EGF was released as a pseudo-zero order pattern after initial burst effect. The nanoparticles were sufficient for A431 cells proliferation.

The object of this study is to clarify fatigue limit and fatigue crack growth characteristic of SBHS700 base metal which is 780 MPa class steel. This study carried out the fatigue tests of SBHS700 base metal containing different defect size, and the fatigue limit was compared with that of the conventional steel. Test results indicate that the fatigue limit increased with decrease initial defect size, and can be precisely evaluated by using ${\sqrt{area}}$ parameter model. This paper also presents that crack growth characteristic was almost the same as that of the conventional steel from the observation of striations by using Scanning electron microscope and length of beach marks.
