We fabricated piezoelectric unimorph cantilever generators (UCG) using $Pb(Zr_{0.54}Ti_{0.46})O_3$ + 0.2 wt% $Cr_2O_3$ + 1.0 wt% $Nb_2O_5$ (PZCN) piezoelectric thick films, which were produced by a tape casting method. The PZCN thick films were tailored with same width and thickness but different lengths from 7.7 to 57.7 mm in order to evaluate optimized UCG for energy harvesting device applications. When the length of PZCN film was increased, the resonance frequency of UCG was slightly increased from 7 Hz to 8 Hz, which could be due to enlarged area of the highly stiff piezo-ceramic film. However, the output power was proportionally increased with the length of PZCT film and it reached 4.68 mW (1.221 $mW/cm^3$) when the film's length was 57.7 mm under 25 g of tip mass at 8 Hz, which is sufficient for micro-scale device applications.

하이드로탈시이트류 음이온성 점토광물로 잘 알려진 증상이중수산화물($Mg-Al-CO_3$ 체계)을 마그네슘과 알루미늄의 비를 달리하면서 공침전법으로 합성하였다. 얻어진 생성물들의 특성을 원소조성분석, 분말 X-선회절분석, 열분석(시차주사열량분석과 열무게분석), FT-IR분광분석 및 $^{27}$/Al-MAS NMR분석등으로 규명하였다. 분말 X-선회절분석으로 생성물들이 층상구조를 이루고 있음을 확인하였다. 시차주사열량분석결과에서는 20-280$^{\circ}C$ 영역에서 표면수 및 층간수의 이탈로 인한 흡열피크가 관찰되며, 280-500$^{\circ}C$ 영역에서격자수 및 이산화탄소의 이탈로 일어나는 화학변화에 의한 강한 흡혈피크가 관찰되었다. 열무게분석결과에서는 두 영역의 질량감소량을 측정할 수 있었다(LDH4의 경우 각각 16.2%와 28.6%). FT-IR 분광분석결과층간의 탄산이온은 층과 평행하게 $D_{3h}$ 대칭구조로 존재하며, $^{27}$/Al-MAS NMR분석결과 층안의 알루미늄은 마그네슘과 마찬가지로 수산화이온에 의해 6배위환경으로 존재하였다. 공기분위기하의 560$^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 소성되어진 시료는 본래의 층상구조가 파괴된 균일한 혼합금속산화물로 변화하며, 이 물질은 크롬산이온 수용액에서 빠르게 재수화반응을 일으켜 본래의 층상구조를 회복하였다.

Synthesis of ZnCo₂O₃ oxide is performed by sol-gel method via nitrate-citrate route. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) study shows monoclinic unit cell having lattice parameters: a = 5.721(1) Å, b = 8.073(2) Å, c = 5.670(1) Å, β = 93.221(8)°, space group P_2/m and Z = 4. Average crystallite sizes determined by Scherrer equation are the range ~14-32 nm, whereas SEM micrographs show nano-micro meter size particles formed in ZnCo₂O₃. Endothermic peak at ~798 K in the Differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) trace without weight loss could be due to structural transformation and the endothermic peak ~1143 K with weight loss is due to reversible loss of O₂ in air atmosphere. Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis profile shows the presence of elements Zn, Co and O which indicates the purity of the sample. Magnetic measurements in the range of +12 kOe to -12 kOe at 10 K, 77 K, 120 K and at 300 K by PPMS-II Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS) shows hysteresis loops having very low values of the coercivity and retentivity which indicates the weakly ferromagnetic nature of the oxide. Observed X-band EPR isotropic lineshapes at 300 K and 77 K show positive g-shift at g_iso ~2.230 and g_iso ~2.217, respectively which is in agreement with the presence of paramagnetic site Co²⁺(3d⁷) in the oxide. DC conductivity value of 2.875 ×10^-8 S/cm indicates very weakly semiconducting nature of ZnCo₂O₃ at 300 K. DRS absorption bands ~357 nm, ~572 nm, ~619 nm and ~654 nm are due to the d-d transitions ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→²E_g(²G), ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→⁴T_1g(⁴P), ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→⁴A_2g(⁴F), ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→⁴T_2g(⁴F), respectively in octahedral ligand field around Co²⁺ ions. Direct band gap energy, E_g~ 1.5 eV in the oxide is obtained by extrapolating the linear part of the Tauc plot to the energy axis indicates fairly strong semiconducting nature of ZnCo₂O₃.

현재 방음을 위해 사용되는 흡음구조는 흡음률이 높은 재료를 이용하여 만들어진 판을 방음이 필요한 벽에 붙이거나 삽입하는 형상이다. 이러한 형상은 흡음재의 재료가 고정되기 때문에, 사용하는 환경에 따라 효율성이 변화한다는 한계점이 있다. 하지만, 흡음재 없이 흡음효과가 나타나도록 외벽의 구조를 설계한다면, 흡음재의 재료에 대한 제한이 없어져 가용 범위가 상당히 넓어지게 된다. 따라서 우리는 이러한 효율적인 외벽의 구조로서 타공판의 구조를 제안한다. 타공판이 어떻게 흡음률을 가지는 지에 대해 등가물성치를 이용한 수치해석을 통하여 검증하였다. 또한 타공판의 형상과 공명기의 형상이 유사함을 밝혀내었고, 이를 토대로 타공판이 갖는 흡음구조에 대해 분석하였다. 결과적으로 타공판은 별도의 흡음재가 없더라도 효율적인 흡음효과를 낸다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 사용자가 타공판의 형상을 쉽게 변화시킴으로서, 특정한 주파수의 소음을 차단할 수 있어 상당히 효율적인 흡음구조임을 확인하였다. 본 연규의 결과들은 향후 자동차, 고속철도, 주택 외벽 등에 사용되는 흡음구조로서 사용될 수 있을 것이며, 나아가 흡음구조를 설계하는데 기본적인 도구가 될 수 있을 것이다.

Objective : Ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) in the thoracic spine may cause chronic compressive myelopathy that is usually progressive, and unfavorable by conservative treatment. Although surgical intervention is often needed, the standard surgical method has not been established. Recently, it has been reported that posterior decompression with dekyphosis is effective surgical technique for favorable clinical outcome. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the surgical outcomes in patients with thoracic OPLL according to dekyphosis procedure and to identify predictive factors for the surgical results. Methods : A total of 25 patients with thoracic OPLL who underwent surgery for myelopathy from May 2004 to March 2017, were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with cervical myelopathy were excluded. We assessed the clinical outcomes according to various surgical approaches. The modified Japanese orthopedic association (JOA) scores for the thoracic spine (total, 11 points) and JOA recovery rates were used for investigating surgical outcomes. Results : Of the 25 patients, 10 patients were male and the others were female. The mean JOA score was 6.7±2.3 points preoperatively and 8.8±1.8 points postoperatively, yielding a mean recovery rate of 53.8±31.0%. The mean patients' age at surgery was 52.4 years and mean follow-up period was 40.2 months. According to surgical approaches, seven patients underwent anterior approaches, 13 patients underwent posterior approaches, five patients underwent combined approaches. There was no significant difference of the surgical outcomes related with different surgical approaches. Age (≥55 years) and high signal intensity on preoperative magnetic resonance (MR) image in the thoracic spine were significant predictors of the lower recovery rate after surgery (p<0.05). Posterior decompression with dekyphosis procedure was related to the excellent surgical outcomes (p=0.047). Dekyphosis did not affect the complication rates. Conclusion : In this study, our result elucidated that old age (≥55 years) and presence of intramedullary high signal intensity on preoperative MR images were risk factors related to poor surgical outcomes. In the meanwhile, posterior decompression with dekyphosis affected favorable clinical outcome. Posterior approach with dekyphosis procedure can be a recommendable surgical option for favorable results.

일부 malignant tumor에 Pt-complex의 일상 응용 과정에서 신장독성등의 심한 부작용이 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 기존의 cisplatin보다 항암효과는 우수하면서, 부작용을 감소시킨 새로운 Pt-complex의 개발에 역점을 두었다. 본 연구에서 합성한 Pt(Ⅱ) complex는 carrier ligand로서 1,2-diaminocyclohexane(dach)을 사용하였고, leaving group으로는 diophosphine류인 1,2-bisdiphenylphosphinoethane(DPPE)을 도입하였으며, 물에 대한 용해도를 높이기 위해 dinitrate로 만들었다. 새로이 합성한 [Pt(Ⅱ)(trans-d-dach)(DPPE)]$(NO_3)_2$는 원소 분석, IR 및 $^{13}C-NMR$ 분석 data에 의하여 위의 물질임이 확인되었다. MTT assay method에 의한 항암활성 연구를 통하여 P-388, L-1210 lymphocytic leukemia cell과 SK-OV3 난소암세포에서 항암효과가 인정되었으며, 이 항암효과는 대조 약물로 사용된 cisplatin과 유사하였다. 토끼의 신세뇨관 세포와 인체의 신피질 세포를 이용한 cytotoxity 및 thymidine 섭취율과 인체 신피질 조직 배양을 이용한 glucose consumption 실험을 통하여 모두 cisplatin보다 신장독성이 현저히 감소되었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 Pt(Ⅱ)complexes는 carrier ligand와 leaving group의 선택에 따라 항암활성의 증가와 신독성의 감소를 일으키는 요인으로 보여지며, 이 연구에서 만들어진 Pt(Ⅱ)complex는 앞으로 다각적인 검토를 거쳐 새로운 항암화학요법제로 개발될 가능성이 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Objective:Impaired processing of working memory is one of the cognitive deficits seen in patients with schizophrenia. This aimed at corroborating the differences in the brain activities involved in the process of working memory between patients with schizophrenia and the control subjects. Method:Fourteen patients with schizophrenia and 12 healthy volunteers were recruited in this study. Functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) was used to assess cortical activities during the performance of a 2-back visual working memory paradigm using the Korean alphabet as mnemonic content. Results:Group analysis revealed that left lateral prefrontal cortex and right parietal lobule showed decreased cortical activities in the patient group. On the other hand, an increased activation in left superior and middle frontal gyrus, left middle temporal gyrus, right cuneus, both occipital lobes, right fusiform gyrus and right cingulate gyrus. The activation in left anterior lobe and both declive of cerebellum was also increased. Conclusions:This study showed a decreased activation in left lateral prefrontal and right parietal neural networks from the patient group and confirmed the earlier findings on the impaired working memory of patients with schizophrenia using fMRI investigation. The regions implicated in our study suggest an abnormal functioning of the fronto-parietal cortical areas that are critical to the information processing stream, which might be correspondent to common pathophysiology rather than a common etiology in schizophrenia.

Purpose: Extensive lumbosacral defects after removal of spinal tumors have a high risk of wound healing problems. Therefore it is an effective reconstructive strategy to provide preemptive soft tissue coverage at the time of initial spinal surgery, especially when there is an instrument exposure. For soft tissue reconstruction of a lumbosacral defect, a variation of the gluteal flap is the first-line choice. However, the musculocutaneous flap or muscle flap that is conventionally used, has many disadvantages. It damages gluteus muscle and causes functional disturbance in ambulation, has a short pedicle which limits areas of coverage, and can damage perforators, limiting further surgery that is usually necessary in spinal tumor patients. In this article, we present the superior gluteal artery perforator turn-over flap that reconstructs complex lumbosacral defects successfully, especially one that has instrument exposure, without damaging the ambulatory function of the patient. Methods: A 67 year old man presented with sacral sarcoma. Sacralectomy with L5 corpectomy was performed and resulted in a $15{\times}8\;cm$ sized complex soft tissue defect in the lumbosacral area. There was no defect in the skin. Sacral stabilization with alloplastic fibular bone graft and reconstruction plate was done and the instruments were exposed through the wound. A $18{\times}8\;cm$ sized superior gluteal artery perforator flap was designed based on the superior gluteal artery perforator and deepithelized. It was turned over 180 degrees into the lumbosacral dead space. Soft tissue from both sides of the wound was approximated over the flap and this provided in double padding over the instrument. Results: No complications such as hematoma, flap necrosis, or infection occurred. Until three months after the resection, functional disturbances in walking were not observed. The postoperative magnetic resonance imaging scan shows the flap volume was well maintained over the instrument. Conclusion: This superior gluteal artery perforator turn-over flap, a modification of the conventional superior gluteal artery perforator flap, is a simple method that enabled the successful reconstruction of a lumbosacral defect with instrument exposure without affecting ambulatory function.
