CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) have been decorated on singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by combining a method of chemically modified substrate along with gate-bias control. CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots were negatively charged by adding mercaptoacetic acid (MAA). The silicon oxide substrate was decorated by octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) and converted to hydrophobic surface. The negatively charged CdSe NCs were adsorbed on the SWCNT surface by applying the negative gate bias. The selective adsorption of CdSe quantum dots on SWCNTs was confirmed by confocal laser scanning microscope. The measured photocurrent clearly demonstrates that CdSe NCs decorated SWCNT can be used for photodetector and solar cell that are operable over a wide range of wavelengths.

Edge emitting 레이저 다이오드의 전형적인 모양은 그림 1과 같다. 반도체 레이저는 다른 종류의 레이저에 비하여 체적이 매우 작으며 제조 단가가 저렴하고 대량생산이 용이할 뿐 아니라 수 mA의 전류만 흘리면 레이저가 되는 이점이 있으므로 광통신용 응용 외에도 바코드 리더, 비디오 디스크, 오디오 디스크, 레이저 프린터, 포인터 등에 폭넓게 이용된다. 하지만 다른 레이저들에 비하여 발산각이 큰 편인데 p-n 접합에 나란한 방향과 수직인 방향의 발산각은 각각 λ/w와 λ/l 로 타원모양을 갖게 된다$^{(1)}$ . LD의 발광 부분은 폭이 작으므로 일정한 높이에서 정확한 세기분포를 측정하기 위하여 그림 2와 같이 본 연구실에서 제작한 NSOM (Near-filed Scanning Optical Microscope) 구조를 이용한다$^{(2)}$ . (중략)

Ultrasonication was employed to prepare solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) for smart probiotic nanoparticles as a nanofood. The model probiotic material, lactocin from Lactobacillus plantarum (CBT-LP2), was incorporated into SLN. The CBT-LP2 loaded SLN (CBT-LP2-SLN) were spherical in the photograph of scanning electron microscope (SEM). The particle size measured by laser diffraction (LD) was found to be $97.3{\pm}8.2nm$. Zeta potential analyzer suggested the zeta potential of LP-SLN was $-29.36{\pm}3.68$ mV in distilled water. The entrapment efficiency (EE%) was determined with the sephadex gel chromatogram and high-performance liquid chromatogram (HPLC), and up to 90.59% of nanofood was incorporated. Stability evaluation showed relatively long-term stability with only slight particle growth (P>0.05) after storage at room temperature for 4 weeks. Therefore, ultrasonication is demonstrated to be a simple, available and effective method to prepare high quality SLN loaded probiotic material.

A laser scanning fluorescence microscope system has been fabricated for single molecule detection (SMD). Problems associated with the system set-up have been discussed along with proper suggestions. Based on the SMD results obtained by using the apparatus, a statistical method has been suggested to determine the minimum number of required molecules to form a group of uniform average in a selected error range.

This study was to measure the potential of nonwoody fibrous material, kenaf. Whole stalk of kenaf, Hibiscus cannabinus was separated by two parts of bast and core portion, and cooked separately by alkaline method. Morphological characteristic was evaluated using confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) and fiber quality analyzer(FQA). The strength properties of handsheets, made by different mixing ration between kenaf base and core fibers, were measured. Cross-sectional area of bast fibers was smaller than that of core fibers, but the bast fibers had a thick cell wall and narrow lumen area. Bast fibers were longer in length than core fibers. Core fibers had thin cell walls, broad lumen areas, and short lengths, and they had collapsed shape even in water. These characteristics of core fibers affected strength properties of handsheet positively. When the amount of core fibers increased, the strength properties of handsheet were increased. When the amount of bast fibers increased, the handsheet had rougher surface and higher air permeability.

This study was carried out to investigate sheet properties of Indian mallow hanji, made by different pulping methods such as alkali and sulfomethylated pulpings, and different stock compositions, various mixing ratios of bast fiber and woody core fibers. Effect of morphological properties of pulp stocks on the sheet formation and their optical properties were also evaluated using an image analyzer and confocal laser scanning microscope(CLSM). In addition, the effect of fiber distribution index(FDI), which was calculated based on the image in a z-direction of a sheet from CLSM, on the sheet properties of Indian mallow hanji was discussed. The proposed FDI had a good correlation with various properties of paper, such as apparent density, opacity, tear index, breaking length and zero-span tensile strength. Especially, sulfomethylated pulp sheets＇FDI was higher than alkali pulp sheets.

Freestanding azobenzene-containing liquidcrystalline network (LCN) films. with macroscopic uniaxial molecular alignment were prepared by insitu photopolymerization. By polarizing microscopy, fiber-like structures aligned in one direction were observed. Furthermore, with a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM), it was confirmed that the fiber-like structures were formed even in the bulk of the LCNs. Upon UV light irradiation to cause trans-cis photoisomerization of the azobenzene molecules, the LCNfilms underwent a significant and anisotropic bending toward the irradiation direction of UV light. When the bent LCNfilms were exposed to Vis light, unbending of the LCN films immediately took place and the initial flat LCN films were restored. This bending and unbending behavior of the LCN films could be repeated just by changing the wavelength of the irradiation light. It was suggested that the bending was induced by an absorption gradient which produced a volume difference between the front surface area and the bulk of the network films.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of smear layer management on the interfacial morphology between dentin bonding system and dentin. Clearfil New Bond, Scotchbond Multipurpose, Prisma Universal Bond 3 and X-R Bond were used on the cervical dentinal surfaces of bovine incisor teeth. All of the dentin bonding systems were labeled with fluorescene in primer and rhodamine B in adhesive. Specimens of 2~3mm thichness were prepared by longitudinal and labiolingual sectioning. The interface between dentin bonding system and dentin was observed by flouresence imaging with a confocal laser scanning microscope. Following results were obtained. 1. In the specimen of Clearfil New Bond, dentinal tubules were widened by destruction of peritubular dentin in the course of treatment with phosphoric acid of high concentration. 2. Hybrid layer was observed in the specimen of Scotchbond Multipurpose and X-R Bond. 3. In the specimen of Prisma Universal Bond 3, the penetraton of adhesive was not observed clearly.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the adaptability of light-cured glass ionomer cement to cavity walls. Class V cavities were prepared on the labial surfaces of extracted bovine incisor teeth. The cavities were restored with Fuji II as self-cured glass ionomer cement and Fuji II LC, Vitremer as light-cured glass ionomer cement. Fluorescent markers (fluoreceine and rhodamin B) were incorperated into liquid and primer for a better image of microscopic observation. Restored teeth were sectioned by longitudinal and labiolingual direction. The adaptability at the tooth-restoration interface was assessed incisally, axially and cervically by confocal scanning laser microscope. Following results were obtained : 1. Chemical-cured glass iomomer cement restoration showed close adaptation on the all of the cavity walls, but, cracks formed within the cement. 2. Light-cured glass ionomer cement restoration was well adapted to the cavity walls, but showed crack in the cement adjacent to axial dentinal wall. 3. There' was no significant difference in adaptability between two light-cured glass ionomer cement restorations.

Micro-EDM is one of the recent fine-machining technologies. Micro-EDM is widely used in precision processes because products manufactured via EDM are free from workpiece hardness. However, the debris produced during the process cause many problems such as reduced precision of the process. The first solution of this problem involves using the milling hole process. Micro-EDM hole process involves an electrode moving rapidly in the vertical direction via a servo system to disperse debris. However, this process can cause reduced work efficiency owing to contact between the electrode and workpiece. In this study, ultrasonic vibration is added to micro-EDM channel machining. Ultrasonic vibration removes the debris during machining and enables precision machining. Consequently, a clean work environment for the subsequent processes is maintained.
