Thin films of phase-pure perovskite (P $b_{0.72}$L $a_{0.28}$) $Ti_{0.93}$ $O_3$(PLT) were deposited in-situ onto Pt/Ti/ $SiO_2$/Si substrates by pulsed laser deposition. We have systematically investigated the variation of grain sizes depending on the process condition. Both in-situ annealing and ex-situ annealing treatments have been compared depending on the annealing time. Two-step process to grow (P $b_{0.72}$L $a_{0.28}$) $Ti_{0.93}$ $O_3$(PLT) films was adopted and verified to be useful to enlarge the grain size of the film and to enhance the leakage current characteristics. The grain sizes of PLT thin films were successfully controlled 260 to 350 nm by changing process parameters. Electrical properties including dielectric constant, ferroelectric characteristics, crystallization and leakage current of PLT thin films were shown to be strongly inf1uenced by grain size. Also PLT thin films on p-type(100) Si substrate will be fabricated by pulsed laser deposition technique using a Nd:YAG laser with different wavelengths of 355, 532 and 1064 nm. Effect of the variation of laser wavelength on dielectric properties will be discussed. Microstructural and electrical properties of the film were investigated by C-V measurement leakage current measurement and SEM.ent and SEM.

$\beta$-Glucan has been efficiently produced with higher yield by the optimization of liquid cultivation conditions. The optimal composition of medium for batch culture was 5% (w/v) of glucose as a carbon source, 0.5% (w/v) of yeast and 0.5% (w/v) of malt extract as a nitrogen source, 0.1% (w/v) of $KH_2PO_4$ and 0.05% (w/v) $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, which had been the base medium for determination of other conditions. The set-up conditions are pH 5.0, $28^{\circ}C$, 1 vvm for aeration and 300 rpm for agitation. In order to minimize the inhibition effect of glucose on the initial growth of mycelia and to maximize the production of extracellular $\beta$-glucan, we have reduced the initial glucose feed to 4% and added 2nd feed at the point of 70 hr from the initial feed. The 2nd feed was composed of glucose 3%, yeast extract 0.1 % and malt extract 0.1 %. It improved the $\beta$-glucan yield upto 5.2 g/L in comparison with 2.8 g/L resulted from batch cultivation. Moreover, the serial treatment of a cell wall lytic enzyme and bromelain to the mycelia was effective for extraction of the cell wall bound $\beta$-glucan. The yield of $\beta$-glucan extraction by the enzyme treatment was 3.5 g/L, which was almost 4 times higher than that by hot-water extraction.

Purpose: Recent studies show that Skin Resistance Variability(SRV) could be related to the functions of Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Ovary(H-P-O) axis. 7-Zone-Diagnostic System is oriental medicine measuring system using SRV. To know the differences of SRV of normal and abnormal menstrual cycle groups, we research the SRV of the two groups. Methods: We measured SRV of two groups that were consist of 126 women who took CP-6000A test in Sangji Oriental Medical Hospital from Mar. 2004 to Feb. 2006. After detection of SRV, we performed correlation analysis by SPSS 12.0. Results: The SRV was measured twice in 7 areas. By the results of 1st trial on Factor AA of the SRV, the patient group's results were lower than normal group's results in all 7 areas. And there were remarkable differences in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 areas between two groups. By the results of 2nd trial on Factor AA of the SRV, the patient group's results were lower than normal group's results in all 7 areas similar to 1st trial results. And there were remarkable differences in 2, 3 areas between two groups. Conclusion: Comparing normal group with patient group, these results may reflect the relations of abnormal menstrual cycle and H-P-O axis functions. Because patient's results were lower than normal's in all 7 areas. And remarkable different results in 2, 3 areas were repeated by twice trial all. Further study will be needed.

This study puts focus on the optimization of growth temperature of CIGS absorber layer which affects severely the performance of solar cells. The CIGS absorber layers were prepared by three-stage co-evaporation of metal elements in the order of In-Ga-Se. The effect of the growth temperature of 1st stage was found not to be so important, and 350$^{\circ}C$ to be the lowest optimum temperature. In the case of growth temperature at 2nd/3rd stage, the optimum temperature was revealed to be 550$^{\circ}C$. The XRD results of CIGS films showed a strong (112) preferred orientation and the Raman spectra of CIGS films showed only the Al mode peak at 173cm$\^$-1/. Scanning electron microscopy results revealed very small grains at 2nd/3rd stage growth temperature of 480$^{\circ}C$. At higher temperatures, the grain size increased together with a reduction in the number of the voids. The optimization of experimental parameters above mentioned, through the repeated fabrication and characterization of unit layers and devices, led to the highest conversion efficiency of 15.4% from CIGS-based thin film solar cell with a structure of Al/ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo/glass.

The nucleophilic substitution reactions of dibutyl chlorothiophosphate (4S) with substituted anilines ($XC_6H_4NH_2$) and deuterated anilines ($XC_6H_4ND_2$) are investigated kinetically in acetonitrile at $55.0^{\circ}C$. The obtained deuterium kinetic isotope effects (DKIEs;$k_H/k_D$) are primary normal ($k_H/k_D$ = 1.10-1.35). A concerted mechanism involving predominant frontside nucleophilic attack is proposed on the basis of the primary normal DKIEs and selectivity parameters. Hydrogen bonded, four-center-type transition state is proposed. The steric effects of the two ligands on the anilinolysis rates of the chlorothiophosphates are discussed. The anilinolyses of P=S systems are compared with those of their P=O counterparts on the basis of the reactivities, thio effects, selectivity parameters, and DKIEs.

The effect of catalytic condition on the properties of SiO2 aerogels has been investigated and then the dri-ed aerogels were partially densified to induce mechanical strength by heat treatment in order to prepare Type-VI silica by Sol-Gel method. Aerogel made by 1-step base process had the highest skeletal density lowest shrinkage and the smallest particle size. But in case of using acid catalyst in both 1st and 2nd step had the lowest skeletal density highest shrinkage and the largest particle size The aerogel synthesized by 1-step base process was most transparent because of its homogeneous microstructure. During heat treatments cracks occurred below 200$^{\circ}C$ for aerogel with the skeletal density lower than 1.9 g/cm3 but the with the higher skeletal density did not cracked up to 800$^{\circ}C$ shrinkage and skeletal density increased as heating temperature increased due to condensation and viscous sintering mechanism.

In this work, hydrogen production by a 2-step water-spritting thermochemical cycle based on metal oxides redox pairs was investigated on the bases of the thermodynamics and technical feasibility. Also, a 2nd-law analysis performed on the closed cyclic process indicates a maximum exergy conversion efficiency of 7.1% when using a solar cavity-receiver operated at 2300K and air/Fe3O4 molar ratio = 10.

The application of remote sensing in small scale mapping has recently been widened to various fields such as information analysis of landuse, environmental conservation and natural resources. SPOT imagery, in particular, offers data which can be processed for 3-dimensional point determination. This is made possible by its high resolution, appropriate swatch width/altitude ratio and stereo imaging capabilities. This study aims to develop a suitable polymonial and an algorithm in the determination of exterior orientation which is essential in the 3-dimensional point determination of SPOT imgery. An algorithm is presented in this study to determine the exterior orientation of a preprocessed level lB film of the satellite image. It was found that a polynominal of 15 parameters is the best fit polynominal for exterior orientation determination, where 1st order line function is used for positon ($X_o$, $Y_o$, $Z_o$) and 2nd order line function is used for orientation (${\kappa}_o$, ${\phi}_o$, ${\omega}_o$).

The slot-die coating & calcination process was adopted to fabricate the long YBCO precursor films on the buffered metal tape for the $2^{nd}$ generation coated conductors. To obtain the smooth and crack-free surface of long YBCO precursor films, the parameters of slot-die coating and the process variables of calcination step must be optimized simultaneously in reel-to-reel method. Among the parameter of slot-die coating process, the viscosities of the precursor solution was controlled from 60cP to 200cP to obtain the thicker films from on single coating. The slot-die gap, the injection rate of precursor solution, the moving speed of buffered metal tape etc. are controlled lot the full coverage and smooth surface of YBCO precursor films. The slot-die coated films are moved through the tube furnace with predetermined heating profiles in humid oxygen ambient The YBCO precursor films was identifed with $Y_2O_3,\;BaF_2$, and CuO phase by XRD and consisted of fine grains of about 20nm size observed by FE-SEM. The YBCO films show the critical current density over $MA/cm^2$ using the precursor films formed by the continuous slot-die coating & calcination process.

In order to establish the integrated management of white grubs in ginseng field damages of ginseng plants (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) by the larvae of the larger black chamfer (Holotrichia morose Waterhouse) and the Korean black chamfer (Holotrichia diomphalia Bates) were investigated. Most of ginseng damages due to H, morose usually occurred in September through October, mainly on 2nd year plants. However, the damage by H. diomphalia occurred in September through October (usually in odd number of years) on 2nd year plants and in the following May and June on 3rd year plants. Therefore, in the fall of every odd number of years, synchronized occurrence of the two species caused severe damage on ginseng plants. Both of the 3rd instar larvae of the forementioned two species damaged ginseng roots regardless of the age of the plants when ginseng plants were artificially infested with them. Ginseng fields located at the slopes with good drainage are most likely damaged by them.
