광결정(photonic crystal)은 빛의 파장 크기 정도의 격자 상수를 지닌 1차원, 2차원, 또는 3차원의 주기적인 구조이다. 광결정에는 광밴드갭(photonic bandgap)이라는 빛의 자발 방출이 억제된 진동수의 영역이 존재하는데, 이 영역을 이용하여 빛의 자발 방출을 조절하고 빛의 흐름을 제어할 수 있다. $^{[1]}$ 지난 10여년간 2차원, 3차원의 광결정 구조에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어져 왔는데, 최근에는 슬랩 도파관(slab waveguide)에 2차원 광결정을 만든 구조에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행중이다. 이 구조는 평면 방향으로는 광밴드갭 효과로 광모드를 가둘 수 있고 수직 방향으로는 전반사를 이용하여 모드를 가둘 수 있어서 3차원적인 모드 confinement 효과를 얻을 수 있다. [그림 1]의 (a)에 air-bridge 형태의 2차원 광결정 슬랩(photonic crystal slab) 구조를 도식적으로 나타내었고, (b)에는 본 연구실에서 제작한 구조 표면의 scanning electron micrograph을 나타내었다. 현재 몇몇 연구 그룹에서 이와 같은 광결정 슬랩 구조를 이용한 반도체 레이저를 실현하는데 성공하였다.$^{[2,3]}$ (중략)

Relationship between etch current and morphology and porosity of porous silicon (PS) has been investigated. The gravimetric method is applied to measured the porosity of PS. As the current density increase, the silicon dissolution rate increases, resulting in a higher porosity and etching rate. The result shows that linear dependence of PS porosity and etching rate as a function of current density. The morphology of porous silicon was investigated by using cold field emission scanning electron micrograph (FE-SEM). The size of pores formed during anodization is predominantly controlled by the current density, with an increase in the pore size corresponding to an increase in the current density.

To developed natural food preservatives, ethanol and water extracts were prepared from the defatted camellia(Camellia japonica L.) seeds. Antimicrobial activities were examined against 14 microorganisms which were food borne pathogens and/or food poisoning microorganisms and food-related bacteria and yeasts. Ethanol extract showed antimicrobial activities against several microorganisms tested, but not on lactic acid bactria. Especially, minimum inhibitory concentrations(MIC) for yeasts were as low as 1mg/ml. Water extract exhibited antimicrobial activities for the yeasts tested, but almost bacteria were not observed. The ethanol extract was fractionated in the order of hexane, chloroform, ethylaetate and butanol fractions to test antimicrobial activity. The strongest activity for the tested yeasts were found in the butanol fractions, but bacteria were chloroform fraction. Hansenula anomala treated with ethanol were observed by scanning electron micrograph, and the results exhibited morphological changes, including the irregularly contracted cell surface and expanded ellipsoidal shape.

Hydrotalcite, layered double hydroxides (LDH), with hexagonal morphology has been rapidly synthesized by microwave reaction within 1 hour by urea hydrolysis from homogeneous solution. Different synthesis parameters, Mg/Al molar ratio, microwave reaction temperature and microwave power were systematically investigated. Pure hydrotalcite phase was obtained for Mg/Al ratios of 2:1 and 3:1, and higher reaction temperature gave higher crystallinity. The hydrotalcite synthesized at 600W power shows the highest crystallinity and more homogeneous crystal size distribution. The hydrotalcite samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), simultaneous thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and Scanning electron micrograph (SEM).

The effect of ball milling on the pressureless sintering of MoSi$_2$ was investigated. Ball milling was conducted at 70 rpm for 72 hours using different balls and vessels: one used tungsten carbide balls in a plastic vessel(referred as B-powder) and the other stainless steel ball in a stainless steel vessel(referred as C- powder). The powder was compacted with 173MPa and subsequently sintered at the temperature range of 1150 $^{\circ}C$ and 1450 $^{\circ}C$ in H$_2$, atmosphere. Sintered density was measured and scanning electron micrograph was observed. Over 90% of the theoretical density was attained at 1250 $^{\circ}C$ within 10 minutes for C-powders, while the similar densification required a sintering temperature of 1450 $^{\circ}C$ for B-powders. Such a difference in sinterability between B and C-powders was discussed in terms of the effect of particle size reduction and activated sintering caused by Ni and/or Fe introduced during ball milling.

In this experimental investigation, various plasma-sprayed zirconia contained coatings and a kind of alumina-zirconia coating were studied to gain a better understanding of their tribological behaviour under dry contact condition in a reciprocating motion at temperature of 200℃. Particular attention was made for finding appropriate coatings in cylinder liner/piston ring application with an emphasis on the antiwear property. In order to identify the wear mechanism, SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope), optical micrograph, and roughness tester were used. Alumina-zirconia and 8% yttria-zirconia were found to be most appropriate for the application to the cylinder liner/piston ring and, especially, alumina-zirconia exhibited highest wear-resistance and also showed good friction characteristics. Wear mechanisms of ceramic coatings identified.

Relationship between reflection resonance and applied current density in Bragg photonic crystal has been investigated. Multiple bit encodes of distributed Bragg reflector features have been prepared by electrochemical etching of crystalline silicon by using various square wave current densities. Optical characterization of multi-encoding of distributed Bragg reflectors on porous silicon was achieved by Ocean optics 2000 spectrometer for the search of possible applications of multiple bit encoding of distributed Bragg reflectors such as multiplexed assays and chemical sensors. The morphology and cross-sectional structure of multi-encoded distributed Bragg reflectors was investigated by field emission scanning electron micrograph.

Various types of smart dust based on photonic crystal exhibiting unique reflectivity were successfully obtained by an electrochemical etching of silicon wafer using square wave currents. Smart dust containing Bragg structure obtained from the sonication of DBR porous silicon film in solution retained its optical reflectivity. Field emission scanning electron micrograph (FE-SEM) was used to measure the size of optically encoded smart dust and its size can be tuned from few hundred nanometers to few microns depending on the duration of sonication. Optical characteristics of smart dust were used to investigate a possible applications such as chemical sensors.

The seven strains, Pseudomonas paucimobilis, Pseudomonas cepacia, Staphylococcus auricularis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Acidovorax spp., Acinetobacter calcoaceticus, and Actinobacillus capsulatus were tested with three slimicides. Most of the tested bacteria were inhibited with slimicide K (an isothiazolin based compound), even at its low concentration, except for Actinobacillus capsulatus and Staphylococcus auricularis. Both slimicides B (an organic bromine based compound) and S (aldehydes) also couldn't prevent these two strains even at their highest concentration. Five different sizes of plasmid DNA were isolated from Actinobacillus capsulatus. Staphylococcus auricularis, a gram-positive bacteria, showed the slimy substances around its cell distinctively. The results suggest that two strains, Actinobacillus capsulatus, Staphylococcus auricularis, have presumably developed a resistance to the slimicide, by plasmid DNA or slimy substance. Our findings also suggest that not only gram-negative bacteria, but also gram-positive bacteria should not be neglected

Organic drugs including aspirin, omeprazole, and naproxen with three different levels of octanol/water partition coefficient were examined for their release behavior from the amphiphilic PCL-b-PEO-b-PCL (PCEC) matrix. Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of PCEC illustrated a well defined two-phase morphology consisted of dispersed poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) domain and continuous polycaprolactone (PCL) phase. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD) experiments veri tied that three model drugs are dissolved as a molecular dispersion in PCEC matrix. The release of hydrophilic aspirin closely followed the water absorption profile of the matrix indicating that its major fraction is present in PEO domain. However, substantial amount of aspirin present in less hydrophilic region displayed discontinuous biphasic release pattern. In the case of omeprazole with intermediate hydrophobicity consistent release behavior was observed for a period of 24 hrs after the rapid liberation of ca. 10% of the drug presumably partitioned in PEO phase. It was ascribed to the fact that the progressive hydration of PCEC matrix gradually increased the chance of drug/water exposure to compensate the exhaustion of device. Naproxen with the highest octanol/water distribution coefficient among three model drugs exhibited a limited release of 35% for 24 hrs. Finally, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (HPMCP)/PCEC blend matrix demonstrated an accelerated and quantitative release of hydrophobic naproxen by generating high porosity and thereby expanding polymer/water interface.
