In this study, $Al_2$O$_3$films have been deposited with Atomic Layer Deposition(ALD) for gate insulator for MPTMA and $H_2O$ at low temperature below 40$0^{\circ}C$ . Conventional methods of $Al_2$O$_3$thin film deposition have suffered from the poor step coverage due to reduction of device dimension and increasing contact/via hole aspect ratio. ALD is a self-limiting growth process with controlled surface reaction where the growth rate is only dependent on the number of growth cycle and the lattice parameter of materials. ALD growth process has many advantages including accurate thickness control, large area and large batch capability, good uniformity, and pinholes freeness.

The reactive ion etching characteristics of aluminum oxide films, prepared by PECVD, were investigated in the CCl4 plasma. The atomic chlorine concentration and the DC self bias were determined at various etching conditions, and their effects on the etch rate of aluminum oxide film were studied. The bombarding energy of incident particles was found to play the more important role in determining the etch rate of aluminum oxide rather than the atomic chlorine concentration. It is considered to be because the bombardment of ions or neutral atoms breaks the strong Al-O bonds of aluminum oxide to help activate the formation reaction of AlCl3 which is the volatile etch product.

Redox behavior was observed in alkali alkaline earth silicate PDP (Plasma Display Panel) glass melts doped with sulfate and sulfide by square wave voltammetry (SWV). According to voltammograms produced at a temperature range of 1100 to $1400^{\circ}C$ and frequency range of 5 to 1000 Hz, both melts showed the same behavior in which there is one reduction peak at low frequency but another peak at an increase of frequency. Based on the frequency dependence of the peak current, self diffusivity of $S^{4+}$ was determined. Based on the temperature dependence of the peak potential, standard enthalpy (${\Delta}H^0$) and standard entropy (${\Delta}S^0$) for the reduction of $S^{4+}$ to $S^0$ were calculated.

Photoacoustic Tomography (PAT) is a promising medical imaging modality by reason of its particularity. It combines optical imaging contrast of optical imaging with the spatial resolution of ultrasound imaging and can demonstrate change of biological feature in an image. For that reason, many studies are in progress to apply this technic for diagnosis. But, real-time PAT system is necessary to confirm a biological reaction induced by external stimulation immediately. Thus, we developed a real-time PAT system using linear array transducer and self-developed Data acquisition board (DAQ) resources, To evaluate the feasibility and performance of our proposed system, two type of phantom test were also performed. As a result of those experiments, the proposed system shows enough performance and confirm its usefulness.

Various alkoxyamine initiators for nitroxide mediated radical polymerization (NMRP) were prepared in high yields by a simple substitution reaction of nitroxide anions with benzyl bromide. The required nitroxide anions were easily generated by treating either nitroxide free radicals or hydroxy amine with an alkali metal such as sodium or potassium in THF. This method is both practical and efficient, since the ionic conditions prevent other side reactions from occurring, such as the self-coupling or oligomerization reactions that are observed in the case of radical trapping conditions. To demonstrate the utility of the resulting alkoxyamine initiators, end- and telechelic-alkoxyamine PEG macroinitiators derived from the alkoxyamines were synthesized by a simple chemical modification, and used for the preparation of PEG-b-PS and PS-b-PEG-b-PS block copolymers by NMRP.

In order to improve the physical properties of food such as texture and food self-life. Transglutaminase(mTG) from Streptoverticillum morbarense was prepared. In the preliminary experiments, presence of proteases in the crude enzyme did not improve the texture of dough, which mean the inteference of mTG reaction by the proteases. Among the cation exchange resins tested for the removal of proteases, Monoplus S 100(Bayer, Germany) was the most efficient resin with 20 fold increase in the mTG/protease activity ratio. By further purification steps with a quaternary ammonia salt resin and a gel permeation chromatography, proteases were effectively removed from the preparation. Therefore, the improvement of flour texture was shown by adding the protease-free mTG.

The conventional regenerative system has a high thermal efficiency as well as energy saving using the high preheated combustion air. in spite of these advantages, it can not avoid high nitric oxide emissions. Recently, flameless combustion has received much attention to solve these problems. In this research, numerical analysis is performed for flow-combustion phenomena in the self regenerative burner. In this analysis we used Fluent 6.0 code. the that is developed for commercial use, Methane gas is used as a fuel and two-step reaction model for methane and Zeldovich mechanism for NO generation are used. the velocity of the preheated combustion air is used as a parameter and we analyze the characteristics of flow-field, temperature distributions and NO emissions. Due to the increased recirculation rate, the maximum temperature of flame is significantly increased and NOx emissions is reduced

The conducting polymer thin films were deposited using the gas phase method which known as molecular layer deposition (MLD). Terephthalaldehyde (TPA) and p-phenylenediamine (PD) were used as monomers to deposit conducting polymer. Self-terminating nature of TPA and PD reaction were demonstrated by growth rate saturation versus precursors dosing time. Infrared spectroscopic and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were employed to determine the chemical composition and state of conducting polymer thin films. Layer by layer growth and polymerization of thin films can be showed by shifting of absorption edge using UV-VIS spectroscopy. This conducting polymer fabricated by using MLD method gives the opportunity to develop new hybrid materials by combining inorganic materials in nanoscale.

Recently, mussel-inspired surface modification, called polydopamine coating has been extensively implemented to many areas, due to its material versatility and ease to use. In particular, incubation of substrates in an alkaline dopamine solution resulted in self-polymerization of dopamine and modified variety of material surfaces, including noble metals, metal oxides, ceramics, and synthetic polymers. However, the polydopamine coating has a drawback to practical use; it takes more than 12 hrs to introduce sufficient polydopamine layers to solid substrates. Here, we investigated the rate-enhanced polydopamine coating by varying reaction conditions: pH, concentration, and the addition of the oxidizing agent. As a result, the optimum condition for fast polydopamine coating was found, and solid substrates were efficiently coated with polydopamine layers in just few minutes using the condition. The polydopamine-modified surface was characterized by XPS and contact angle goniometry, and the biocompatibility of the modified surface was also proved by cell attachment test.
