Effectiveness of edible coatings containing soy protein isolate (SPI), in reducing oxidative browning and moisture loss during storage ($4^{\circ}C$) of cut apples, potatoes, carrots, and onions was investigated. The SPI coatings were shown to have antioxidative activity. Furthermore, addition of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) to the formulations significantly improved its antioxidative activity. Oxidative discoloration, as determined by Commission Internationale De I'Eclairage (CIE) lightness ($L^*$), redness ($a^*$), and yellowness ($b^*$) color scale, was significantly reduced (p <0.05) by SPI coating treatments over a storage time of 120 min. Loss of lightness was reduced by SPI coatings with and without CMC. These respectively showed 4.03 and 3.71% change of $L^*$ value compared to 8.56% for control. Browning of the control in cut potatoes was significantly increased by 106.6% in contrast to 34.3 and 35.2% for SPI coatings with and without CMC, respectively. The $b^*$ values also reflected effectiveness of SPI. Moisture barrier effect was significantly better for the treatments, compared to the control. SPI coatings reduced moisture loss in apples and potatoes, respectively, by 21.3 and 29.6% over the control. Cut onions did not show any treatment effect both in terms of browning and moisture loss. SPI coatings prove to be good moisture barrier and antioxidative property.

In the fabrication processes of thin film thermoelectrics, a subsequent annealing treatment is inevitable to reduce the defects and residual stresses introduced during the film growth, and to make the uniform carrier concentration of the film. However, the diffusion-induced atomic redistribution and the broadening of p/n junction region are expected to affect the thermoelectric properties of thin film modules. The present study intends to investigate the diffusion at the p/n junctions of thermoelectric thin films and to relate it to the property changes. The film junctions of p-type(Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3)and n-type(Bi2Te2.4Se0.6)were prepared by the flash evaporation method. Aluminum thin layer was employed as a diffusion barrier between p-and n-type films of the junction. This was found to be an effective barrier by showing a negligible diffusion into both type films. After annealing treatment, the thermoelectric properties of p/n couples with aluminum barrier layer were accordingly retained their properties without any deterioration.

The junction properties between the ferromagnet (FM) and two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) system are crucial to develop spin electronic devices. Two types of 2DEG layer, InAs and GaAs channel heterostructures, are fabricated to compare the junction properties of the two systems. InAs-based 2DEG layer with low trans-mission barrier contacts FM and shows ohmic behavior. GaAs-based 2DEG layer with $Al_2O_3$ tunneling layer is also prepared. During heat treatment at the furnace, arsenic gas was evaporated and top AlAs layer was converted to aluminum oxide layer. This new method of forming spin injection barrier on 2DEG system is very efficient to obtain tunneling behavior. In the potentiometric measurement, spin-orbit coupling of 2DEG layer is observed in the interface between FM and InAs channel 2DEG layers, which proves the efficient junction property of spin injection barrier.

Powdered infant formula is susceptible to oxidation in the presence of oxygen. Even though the product is usually packaged in nitrogen atmosphere, the oxygen ingress through the package layer may occur in case of flexible pouches and affects the oxidation of the product. $O_2$ barrier of the package is thus important variable to protect the product from oxidative deterioration. $O_2$ barrier property was investigated for aluminum-laminated small pillow packs of $3.5{\times}17.5cm$. Storage temperature and combination of primary and secondary packages were evaluated as variables affecting the barrier for conditions of empty pouch flushed with nitrogen. Apparent oxygen transmission rate of the primary package exposed to air was $2.32{\times}10^{-3}mL\;(STP)\;atm^{-1}\;d^{-1}$ at $30^{\circ}C$ and its temperature dependence could be explained by activation energy of $28.5kJ\;mol^{-1}$ in Arrhenius relationship. The additional secondary package of nylon/PE film containing 20 primary packages was ineffective in modulating package $O_2$ transmission and was only marginally helpful when combined with oxygen scavenger. The same was true in suppressing the product oxidation when the primary package was filled with 14 g of the formula.

Existing cooling technologies no longer provide adequate heat dissipation due to excessive heat generation caused by the growing component density on electronic devices. An ionic gas pump can be used for the thermal management of micro-electronic devices, since the size of pump can be reduced to a micrometer scale. In addition, the gas pump allows for gas flow control and generation without moving parts. This ideal property of gas pump gives rise to a variety of applications. However, all these applications require maximizing the wind velocity of gas pump. In this study a barrier discharge type gas pump, with a needle-shaped corona electrode instead of a plate-shaped corona electrode, has been investigated by focusing on the corona electrode shape on the wind velocity and wind generation yield. As a result, the enhanced wind velocity and wind generation yield of 1.76 and 3.37 times were obtained with the needle-shaped corona electrode as compared with the plate-shaped corona electrode of the proposed barrier discharge type gas pump.

컴퓨터 시스템의 성능 및 다양한 전산모사 프로그램의 발전으로 더 복잡한 원소로 이루어진 화학시스템의 해석이 가능해지고, 그에 따라 분자동역학 전사모사를 활용한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 특히, 기존에는 실험위주로 진행되던 고분자 막에 대한 기체 투과 특성을 계산하는 연구가 관심을 받고 있고, 식품포장, 의약품등에 사용되고 있는 기체차단성 막에 대한 분자동역학 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 최근 실크 피브로인을 이용해 코팅막을 만들었을 때 기체 차단 효과가 나타난다는 보고가 있었고, 본 연구에서는 이러한 실크 피브로인을 활용해 복합막을 만들었을 때 산소 차단 효과가 나타나는지 확인하고자 분자동역학 전산모사를 이용해 연구를 진행하였다. 단일 모델을 제작하고 기체 투과 특성을 계산하고 실험값과 비교를 통해 모델이 실제 실험 결과를 반영하는 것을 확인하였고, 실제 복합막 모델을 만들어 고분자 내에서 기체 이동경로 분석을 진행한 결과 산소 분자가 피브로인 영역을 통과하지 못하고 막히는 것을 보여주었다. 따라서, 실크 피브로인이 도입된 복합막이 산소 차단 성능이 우수하여, 식품포장 등에 유용할 것으로 기대된다.

Al과 Si사이에서 Ti의 충진처리가 확산방지막 성능에 미치는 영향에 대해서 조사하였다. TiN의 충진처리는 $450^{\circ}C$의 $N_{2}$ 분위기에서 30분간 열처리함으로써 행하였다. TEM 분석을 통해 갓 증착된 TiN의 결정립 사이에는 약 10-20$\AA$ 정도의 고체물질이 없거나 TiN에 비해 밀도가 매우 낮은 공간이 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 충진처리된 TiN의 경우에는 이러한 공간의 폭이 10$\AA$ 이하로 줄어듦을 알 수 있었다. RBS와 AES 분석에 의해 갓 증착된 TiN는 dir 7at.% 정도의 산소를 함유하고 있었고, 충진처리된 TiN는 약 10-15at.%의 산소를 함유하고 있었다. 갓 증착된 TiN와 충진처리된 TiN를 확산방지막으로 시험한 결과, 갓 증착된 TiN는 $650^{\circ}C$, 1시간의 열처리 후에 Al 스파이크와 Si 패임자국의 형성으로 이해 파괴되었다. 하지만 충진처리된 TiN의 경우에는 같은 열처리 조건에서 Al 스파이크나 Si 패임자국을 전혀 찾아볼수 없었다. 따라서, TiN의 충진처리가 Al과 Si사이에서 확산 방지막 성능을 크게 향상시켜주는 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 충진처리 효과는 TiN의 결정립계의 간격이 줄어듦에 의해서 빠른 확산 경로인 결정립계를 통한 확산이 감소하는 것에 기인하는 것으로 이해된다.
