  • In this paper, the electrical power output of the micro-combustor thermophotovoltiac(TPV) system was analyzed. The system consists of a micro-combustor, photonic crystals(PhCs), and photovoltaic cells(PV cells). The system has a micro-combustor that can achieve over 1,000 K surface temperature by consuming 2.5 g/h hydrogen fuel. Also, this system incorporates current state-of-the-art PhCs surfaces(2D Ta PhCs and Tandem Filter) to increase electrical power output. In addition, InGaAsSb PV cell, which bandgap is 0.55 eV, was applied to convert a wide range of radiative energy. The performance analysis shows that a single micro-combustor TPV system can produce 0.4 W ~ 27.7 W electrical power with the temperature change of emitter(900 K ~ 1,500 K) and PV cell(250 K ~ 400 K).

  • Transient currents were measured in nematic liquid-crystal cells with and without doping of multiwalled carbon nanotubes. Comparative results suggest that the field-screening effect induced by the adsorbed charge is substantially suppressed by the carbon-nanotube dopant, leading to a reduction of the driving voltage and improved performance of display properties.

  • A flexible reflective cholesteric liquid crystal display (ChLCD) is fabricated on plastic substrates by using the pixel isolation method. The polymer walls between pixels and the polymer layers in the pixels are formed by two-step UV irradiation. Electro-optical response of the ChLCD with polymer wall and layer is studied and compared with conventional bistable ChLCD cells.

  • The cytotoixic effect of Pylorae Herba (Pyrola japonica Klenze) against L1210 and K-562 cells was studied in vitro. The methanolic extract of Pylorae Radix was add ed to the culture of L1210 cells and K-562 cells for the cytotoxic activity and the ED50 values of hexane, ethylacetate, buthanol and water fractions from methanolic extract were determined using MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide) assay. The active constituent isolated by bioassay guided fractionation followed by purification gave rise to a yellow needle crystal and was clarified to be chimaphilline by the comparison with the published data. The average life spans with it were not prolonged significantly on tumor growth in hybrid female mouse (BDF1-KIST) inoculated subcutaneously with P388 cells.

  • The fine structure of the callus induced from epidermis of Panax ginseng leaves cultured on Murashige & Skoog medium plus kinetin 0.1mg/l, NAA 0.2mg/l and 2.4-D 0.5mg/l was observed. The cells composing callus tissue are mononucleus. Three types of cells were identified; cells with abundant cytoplasm, cells with relatively differentiated vacuoles and with numerous starch grains in the plastids and ones with highly differentiated vacuoles and with unsaturated lipid granules. Prolamellar body, plastid lamellae, plastid globules, stromacenter, fine tubules, crystal-containing body and DNA-like structures were observed in the stroma of the plastids. The chromoplasts were identified in some cells believed as the mother cells of secretory cells in secretory ducts. Curved or straight micro-fibrils of 100~150A in diameter were observed in the cytoplasm. And the characteristics of cell organelles and cell inclusions and the vacuole formation in callus tissues were discussed.

  • The 23 wt% polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/15 wt% polyurethane (PU) fibers were electrospun using the conjugated nozzle at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/h and an electric field of 1 kV/cm. The formation of ${\beta}$ crystal phase in the PVDF and the PVDF/PU fibers was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. After electrospinning, the asspun fibers were immersed in a boiling water and then dried at $100^{\circ}C$ in a convection oven to make a crimp phenomenon. The crimps with a diameter of $2.0{\pm}0.08{\mu}m$ were observed for the PVDF/PU fibers after hydrothermal treatment without sacrificing the extent of ${\beta}$ crystal phase. All the PU, PVDF and PVDF/PU fibers exhibited average cell viability of more than 98 %. The cell proliferation results suggested that L-929 cells adhered well to the PU, PVDF and PVDF/PU fibers and proliferated continuously with increasing time, indicating that the PVDF/PU fibers are highly applicable to the biomedical applications.

  • We have studied how surface pretilt angle affects generation of disclination line in liquid-crystal-on silicon cells for 45$^{\circ}$-twisted nematic (TN) and vertical alignment (VA) modes with pixel size of 15$\mu\textrm{m}$. Our studies show that when the pretilt angle is increased from 0$^{\circ}$to 3$^{\circ}$ in the 45$^{\circ}$-TN cell, the disclination line at left side of on-pixel becomes weak and is well suppressed with $\theta$$\_$p/=3$^{\circ}$ although the pixel size Is decreased. In the VA cell, when the pretilt angle is decreased from 89$^{\circ}$ to 86$^{\circ}$, the disclination line at right side of the on-pixel is suppressed well and even for a smaller pixel size, it does not exist when $\theta$$\_$p/=86$^{\circ}$. The results inform that the pretilt angle strongly affects the image quality of microdisplays.

  • The magnetic properties and crystal structures of $Sm_yGd_{2-y}Fe_{17-x}Si_x$ alloys ($0\leq\;x\leq2\;and\;y=0\~1.67$) have been investigated using x-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The $Sm_yGd_{2-y}Fe_{17-x}Si_x$ specimens were crystallized to the rhombohedral $Th_2Zn_{17}-structure$ with less than $5mol\%$ of impurities. The unit cells of the mixed rare-earth samples are smaller than those of $Sm_2Fe_{17}\;and\;Gd_2Fe_{17}.$ For example, the $T_c\;of\;SmGdFe_{17}\;(255^{\circ}C)$ is approximately 160 and $800^{\circ}C)$ higher than that of $Sm_2Fe_{17}\;and\;Gd_2Fe_{17},$ respectively. The $T_cs$ measured for $Sm_yGd_{2-y}Fe_{17-x}Si_x$ samples, 280 to $290^{\circ}C)$, are among the highest values observed for a $R_2Fe_{17-x}M_x$ intermetallic where M is a substituent other than cobalt.

  • The cellular viability of the human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT was compared after adding seaweed extracts to the culture medium. The viability was measured using a quick, quantitative, spectrophotometric crystal violet inclusion method. Of 36 common seaweed species tested, methanol extracts from Sargassum sagamianum and Gigartina tenella enhanced the viability of HaCaT cells by 1.6-fold, as compared to control cells, while methanol extracts from Dictyota dichotoma, Pachymeniopsis elliptica, and Enteromorpha linza decreased the viability to less than half that of controls.
