Quantum theory of Niels Bohr received the Nobel Prize in Physics was rooted to the Oriental thought 'Yin-Yang and the Five Elements 陰陽五行', and architect Frank Lloyd Wright is also known as Lao Tzu's thoughts on the best architectural theory. Thus, the western architecture and oriental thought is very similar to the concept development. On the basis of this fact, the architectural philosophy of Mies van der Rohe is closely contact with Lao Tzu's Taoism, that is 'The greatest has no boundary 大象無形, Tao Te Ching chap.41' or 'The way to be is not to be 有道者 不處, Tao Te Ching chap.24'. Hence the aim of this thesis is to investigate the interrelation between the German architect Mies van der Rohe's 'almost nothing' and the Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu's 'Taoism'.

The water permeation in protective coatings, which may greatly influence the corrosion protective property of these coatings, was studied using the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy technique. During the absorption of water in protective coatings immersed in electrolyte solution, the change of coating capacitance with concentration of electrolyte was determined from impedance measurements. When water absorption or desorption of coatings occured by exposing the coatings to electrolyte solutions of different concentration, increase in impedance caused by desorption of water was found to be higher in the case of thicker film. The amount of water absorbed in coatings changed with concentration of electrolyte. The water taken up in coatings from the solution of lower electrolyte concentration was deserted by contact with the solution of higher concentration. The uptake of water in protective coatings varied depending on the type of coating ingredient especially binder.

Regulation of $\beta$ -galactosidase formation was studied with Lactobacillus sporogenes. Synthesis of the enzyme was effectively induced by isopropyl- $\beta$-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) or galactose, and to a much lower level by lactose. When 15 mM glucose was added at the different intervals to the cultures that had been in contact with IPTG, the same levels of inhibition of the enzyme synthesis were observed (approximately one-third the differential rate of a control culture without glucose). This suggests that glucose did not interfere with the entry of the inducer into the cells, but interfere with the formation of $\beta$ -galactosidase through catabolite repression. The glucose inhibitory effect was not overcome by adding CAMP or cGMP to the culture media.

In order to obtain homogeneous and high quality products in powder compaction forging process, it is very important to control stress, strain, density and density distributions. Therefore, it is necessary to understand quantitatively the elasto-plastic deformation and densification behaviors of porous metals and metal powders. In this study, elasto-plastic finite element method using Lee-Kim's pressure dependent porous material yield function has been used for the analysis of three dimensional indenting process. The analysis predicts deformed geometry, stress, strain and density distribution and load. The calculated load is in good agreement with experimental one. The calculated results do not show axisymmetric distributions because of the edge effect. The core part which is in contact with the indentor and the outer diagonal edge part are in compressive stress states and the middle part is in tensile stress state. As a results, it can be concluded that three dimensional analysis is more realistic than axisymmetric assumption approach.

A new process for polymeric gate insulator in field-effect transistors was proposed. Fourier transform infrared absorption spectra were measured in order to identify ODPA-ODA polyimide. Its breakdown field and electrical conductivity were measured. All-organic thin-film transistors with a stacked-inverted top-contact structure were fabricated to demonstrate that thermally evaporated polyimide films could be used as a gate insulator. As a result, the transistor performances with evaporated polyimide was similar with spin-coated polyimide. It seems that the mass-productive in-situ solution-free processes for all-organic thin-film transistors are possible by using the proposed method without vacuum breaking.

To develop better blood compatibility of commercial polyurethane(PU), PU surface was chemically modified wi th a hydrophobic perfluorocarhon or a hydrophilic polyethylene oxide(PEO) and/or sulfonated groups, respectively. The water contact angle of modified PUs varied from $110^{\circ}$ to $0^{\circ}$. All the modified PUs were more blood compatible than untreated PU. In particular, PEO-sulfonate grafted PUs showed a very enhanced antithrombogenicity due to the synergistic effect of PEO and $SO_3$ groups. Therefore more hydrophobic and hydrophilic PU surfaces are promising for improving the blood compatibility.

Electronic and structural properties of the interfaces formed by pentacene deposited on a polymer-based dielectrics are investigated by electron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and water contact angle measurement. There is strong influence of surface treatment of the polymer dielectrics on the energy level alignment and the surface topography upon the pentacene deposition.

The main purpose of this paper is to study on the effect of contact state between metal-polymer interface in electrical conduction of polymeric materials under low field region. The electric conduction of polythylene (PE) sandwitched in between two gold (Au) electrodes was lower than that of PE Sandwitched in between two Aluminium (Al) electrodes under low external field. The discharge current of PE which have been treated by the high field application is also obtained some results under no external field. The obtained results can suggest that the material of electrode come to influence on the electrical conduction of polymeric materials and are important as a basis for analysing the data on TSC. It is also suggestive that results of observation must be considered in cases of insulation design of electrical machinery.

In this paper, aging characteristics of outdoor silicone rubber insulator resulting from the acid rain have been investigated with regards to nitrate ion ($NO^{-1}_{3}$ ). For this purpose, silicone rubber was aged by immersing into the nitric solutions with different level pH during 1500 hours and various tests (tracking, tan $\delta$, breakdown voltage, SEM, EDS, contact angle) were performed. It was observed that the degradation was increased to pH 2.5 slightly and at pH 1.5 highly. And thus, it could be expected that there is certain critical point between pH 1.5 and 2.5, which leads to throught degradation.

The patterning for the active layer of organic semiconductors is important to attain completely organic-based OTFTs(Organic Thin Film Transistors). We studied on possibility of the application of the conventional photolithography technique to pattern the organic active layer poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT). Patterned P3HT-based OTFTs with Bottom Contact(BC) configuration were fabricated using the conventional photolithography. We achieved field-effect mobilities in the saturation regime ${\sim}1.2{\times}10^{-3}cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, $I_{on/off}$ ratios ${\sim}10^5$ in the subtractive method, ${\sim}8{\times}10^{-4}cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, $I_{on/off}$ ratios ${\sim}10^3$ in the additive one.
