We fabricated and characterized Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) using MCM-C (Multi-Chip-Module-Cofired) technology for 2.14 GHz IMT-2000 mobile terminal application. First, We designed LNA circuits and simulated it's high frequency characteristics using circuits simulator. For the simulation, we adopted high frequency libraries of all the devices used in LNA samples. By the simulation, Gain was 17 dB and Noise Figure was 1.4 dB. We used multilayer process of LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics) substrate and conductor, resistor pattern for the MCM-C LNA fabrication. We made 2 buried inductors, 2 buried capacitors and 3 buried resistors. The number of the total layers was 6. On the top layer, we patterned microstrip line and pads for the SMT device. We measured the high frequency characteristics, and the results were 14.7 dB Gain and 1.5 dB Noise Figure.

We fabricated switch module of ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) exchange system with MCM-C(MultiChip Module Co-fired) technology and measured its electrical characteristics. Green tape was used as substrate and Au/Ag paste was used to form the interconnect layers. The via holes were made by drill and filled with metal paste usign screen method. After manufacturing the substrate, chips and passive components were assembled on the substrate. In electrical test, the module showed the output signal of 46.9MHz synchronized with input signal. In the view of substrate size reduction, the area of MCM switch module was 35% of conventional hybrid switch module.

Modules of the system that requires large capacity and high-speed information processing are implemented in the form of MCM that allows high-speed data processing, high density circuit integration and widely applied to such fields as ATM, GPS and PCS. Hence we developed the ATM switching module that is consisted of three chips and 2.48 Gbps data throughput, in the form of 10 multi-layer by Cu/Photo-BCB and 491pin PBGA which size is $48 \times 48 \textrm {mm}^2$. hnologies required for the development of the MCM includes extracting parameters for designing the substrate/package through the interconnect characterization to implement the high-speed characteristics, thermal management at the high-density MCM, and the generation of the testability that is one of the most difficult issues for developing the MCM. For the development of the ATM Switching MCM, we extracted signaling delay, via characteristics and crosstalk parameters through the interconnect characterization on the MCM-D. For the thermal management of 15.6 Watt under the high-density structure, we carried out the thermal analysis. formed 1.108 thermal vias through the substrate, and performed heat-proofing processing for the entire package so that it can keep the temperature less than $85^{\circ}C$. Lastly, in order to ensure the testability, we verified the substrate through fine pitch probing and applied the Boundary Scan Test (BST) for verifying the complex packaging/assembling processes, through which we developed an efficient and cost-effective product.

A Fe-containing mesoporous silica (Fe-MCM-41) in which part of Si in the framework was replaced by Fe(Si-O-Fe) has been successfully prepared using $Fe^{3+}$ salt by a direct synthesis route. Physical properties of the material were characterized by XRD, $N_2$ adsorption, SEM/TEM, UV-vis and FT-IR spectroscopies. Fe-MCM-41 exhibited high catalytic activity in phenol hydroxylation using $H_2O_2$ as oxidant, giving phenol conversion of ca. 60% at $50^{\circ}C$ [phenol : $H_2O_2$ = 1:1, water solvent]. Fe-MCM-41 was also applied to the growth of CNTs, utilizing a thermal-CVD reactor using acetylene gas, which demonstrated that multi-wall CNTs could be prepared efficiently using the Fe-MCM-41 catalyst.

Mesoporous MCM-41 was deposited on an inexpensive disk shaped ceramic support through hydrothermal technique for ultrafiltration of $Fe^{3+}$ from aqueous solution. The ceramic support was fabricated using uni-axial compaction technique followed by sintering at $950^{\circ}C$. The characteristics of MCM-41 powder as well as the composite membrane were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), porosity and pure water permeation test. The XRD result revealed the good crystallinity and well-resolved hexagonally arranged pore geometry of MCM-41. TGA profile of synthesized MCM-41 zeolite displayed the three different stepwise mechanisms for the removal of organic template. The formation of MCM-41 on the porous support was verified by FESEM analysis. The characterization results clearly indicated that the accumulation of MCM-41 by repeated coating on the ceramic disk directs to reduce the porosity and pore size from 47% to 23% and 1.0 to $0.173{\mu}m$, respectively. Moreover, the potential of the fabricated MCM-41 membrane was investigated by ultrafiltration of $Fe^{3+}$ from aqueous stream at various influencing parameters such as applied pressure, initial feed concentration and pH of solution. The maximum rejection 85% was obtained at applied pressure of 276 kPa and the initial feed concentration of 250 ppm at pH 2.

MCM-41 (Mobil Composition of Matter) and SBA-15 (Santa Barbara Amorphous) were used as a supported catalyst for ethylene polymerization due to their combination of large surface area and wide range of pore size distribution. The morphology of supports was used to control the morphology of the resulting polymer. Different molar ratios of Al/Ti were used for ethylene polymerization at $60^{\circ}C$ under atmospheric pressure. The effect of different mass ratios of MCM-41/SBA-15 and 1-hexene concentration on polymerization activity and polymer properties was investigated. The catalytic activity and the crystallinity reached the highest value at Al/Ti of 480. Upon incorporation of MCM-41 and SBA-15 into $MgCl_2/TiCl_4$ catalyst, the molecular weight and crystallinity of polyethylene were enhanced. The obtained polyethylene showed melting temperature between 130 and $135^{\circ}C$. The polyethylene with replication structure of support and bimodal MWD was expected.

Isolated methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a group of autosomal recessive inborn errors of metabolism caused by impaired activity of methylmalonyl-coenzyme A mutase (MCM). Mutations in the gene encoding MCM (MUT ) is the most common cause of isolated MMA. In this report, we identify an asymptomatic 15 days old female who had elevated C3-acylcarnitine (C3) in the newborn screening. Her serum homocysteine was normal and urine methylmalonic acid was increased that suggested isolated MMA. She was maintained on a low-protein diet and carnitine supplementation. At 3 months of age, she was still asymptomatic and had normal growth. We analyzed MUT gene mutations. Two heterozygote mutations in the MUT gene were identified including c.323G>A and c.1672+2T>C (IVS8(+2)T>C. Among these, c.1672+2T>C (IVS8(+2)T>C) have not been described previously.

This study was designed to examine the feasibility of functionalized mesoporous silica as the adsorbent for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene isomers (BTEX) in groundwater. p-Xylene was used as the model compound of BTEX. A series of functionalized mesoporous silica with MCM-41 type of structure was synthesized using a co-condensation method. Monoamine, triamine, nitrile, phenyl, and octyl groups were functionalized to the mesoporous silica structure. Adsorption sites for p-Xylene in a functionalized mesoporous silica were Si-O-Si covalent bond, the surfactant, and the functional group. Octyl-functionalized mesoporous silica with stearyltrimethylammonium chloride as a surfactant showed the highest adsorption ability. The maximum xylene adsorption capacity of the octyl-functionalized mesoporous silica with stearyltrimethylammonium chloride based on Langmuir model was 4.17 mmol/g on $20^{\circ}C$, which was 2.9 times higher than that of MCM-41.
