The n-butyllithium-initiated ring-opening polymerization of ethylene oxide, in a mixture of benzene and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), between $25-45^{\circ}C$, with potassium tert-butoxide, is a useful and powerful method to control the molecular weight as well as achieve a quantitative chain-end functionalization yield of the resulting polymeric alkoxide via a one pot synthesis. The molecular weight of the product could be controlled by adjusting the ratio of grams of monomer to moles of initiators, such as n-butyllithium ([n-BuLi]) and potassium t-butoxide ([t-BuOK]). The yields for the macromonomer and ${\omega}-brominated$ poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) were quantitative in relation to the chain-end functionalizations of the polymeric alkoxide formed. The resulting products were characterized by a combination of $^1H-NMR$ spectroscopic and size exclusion chromatographic analyses.

Using both experimental and theoretical approaches, we have investigated the adsorption properties of an organic molecule (HATCN), which is used in OLEDs as an efficient hole injection layer, on metal and inert surfaces. We have also studied the structural and electronic properties of such interfaces and the dependences on deposition thickness. We have observed different trends in work function changes with different surfaces. Our photoelectron spectroscopic measurements have revealed an abnormal phenomenon in HATCN on a metal (Cu) surface: the work function decreases at lower coverage (~monolayer) of HATCN on a metal (Cu) surface, but it increases back and becomes higher than that of a bare Cu surface at higher coverage. It has, on the contrary, been observed that the work function of graphene surface just increases as the HATCN coverage increases. Our first-principles density functional calculations has not only verified our experimental observations, but also disclosed the underlying mechanism of such abnormal and different work function behaviors. We have found that the change in work function results from mutual polarization induced by the geometrical deformation and the bond dipole formed at the interface due to the charge redistribution. At low coverage of HAT-CN on Cu substrate, the former reduces the work function significantly by pulling down the vacuum level, while the latter tends to push up the vacuum level resulting in the work function increase.

Cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and adaptation to environmental changes are regulated by protein phosphorylation. In order to enhance the understanding of molecular dynamics for biological process in detail, it is necessary to develop sensitive and comprehensive analytical methods for the determination of protein phosphorylation. Neural stem cells hold great promise for neural repair following an injury or disease. In this study, we made differentiated oligodendrocytes from human neural stem cells using over-expression of olig2 gene. We confirmed using quantitative phosphoproteome analysis approach that combines stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) and $TiO_2$ micro-column for phosphopeptide enrichment with $MS^2$ and $MS^3$ mass spectrometry. We detected 275 phosphopeptides which were modulated at least 2-fold between human neural stem cells and oligodendrocytes. Among them, 23 phosphoproteins were up-regulated in oligodendrocytes and 79 phosphoproteins were up-regulated in F3 cells.

This study characterizes an oxide etching process in a magnetically enhanced reactive ion etching (MERIE) reactor with a $CHF_3/CF_4$ gas chemistry. We use a statistical $2^{4-1}$ experimental design plus one center point to characterize the relationships between the process factors and etch responses. The factors that we varied in the design include RF power, pressure, and gas composition, and the modeled etch responses were the etch rate, etch selectivity to TiN, and uniformity. The developed models produced 3D response plots. Etching of $SiO_2$ mainly depends on F density and ion bombardment. $SiO_2$ etch selectivity to TiN sensitively depends on the F density in the plasma and the effects of ion bombardment. The process conditions for a high etch selectivity are a 0.3 to 0.5 $CF_4$ flow ratio and a -600 V to -650 V DC bias voltage according to the process pressure in our experiment. Etching uniformity was improved with an increase in the $CF_4$ flow ratio in the gas mixture, an increase in the source power, and a higher pressure. Our characterization of via etching in a $CHF_3/CF_4$ MERIE using neural networks was successful, economical, and effective. The results provide highly valuable information about etching mechanisms and optimum etching conditions.

We developed a pipelined scheduling technique of functional hardware and software modules for platform-based system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs. It is based on a modified list scheduling algorithm. We used the pipelined scheduling technique for a performance analysis of an MPEG4 video encoder application. Then, we applied it for architecture exploration to achieve a better performance. In our experiments, the modified SoC platform with 6 pipelines for the 32-bit dual layer architecture shows a 118% improvement in performance compared to the given basic SoC platform with 4 pipelines for the 16-bit single-layer architecture.

In this paper, we will present the design and implementation of the KASUMI crypto algorithm and confidentiality algorithm (f8) to an hardware chip for 3GPP system. The f8 algorithm is based on the KASUMI which is a block cipher that produces a 64-bit output from a 64-bit input under the control of a 128-bit key. Various architectures (low hardware complexity version and high performance version) of the KASUMI are made with a Xilinx FPGA and the characteristics such as hardware complexity and thor performance are analyzed.

Effects of propylamine on conidial head formation and growth of Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus oryzae were analyzed. Propylamine inhibited conidial head formation in these two fungi, and the inhibitory effect of propylamine was not suppressed by the addition of potassium chloride at high concentration, which promotes conidial head formation in A. nidulans and A. oryzae. Propylamine also inhibited the growth of A. niger and A. oryzae by $41\%\;and\;32\%$, respectively, when the concentration of propylamine was $2\%$.

Electrical and optical characteristics of MEH-PPV-based PLEDs with the LiF anode interfacial layer were investigated. The maximum luminance efficiency of the device with a LiF anode interfacial layer of 1-nm-thick was 3.0 lm/W, which is higher than 1.97 lm/W of the device without a LiF layer. By inserting LiF, excess injected holes from ITO anode can be blocked and hence the recombination ratio of electrons and holes can be increased in the emitting layer to improve device efficiency.

수용액 중에서 발린과 노발린의 두 가지 해리상수를 온도와 압력을 변화시키면서 전도도법으로 측정했다. 이들 해리상수로부터 열역학적 성질들을 계산하여 해리반응의 특성을 알아보았다. 아미노산의 종류 즉, 아미노기의 위치나 사슬의 길이, 치환기의 종류에 따라 해리도가 어떤 영향을 받는가 하는 것을 Hammett식을 이용하여 검토했고 이것을 CNDO/2법으로 계산한 분자내 원자의 알짜 전하와 비교 검토하였다.
