We fabricated highly stable a-Si:H solar cell using low band gap intrinsic layer fabricated by RP-CVD. We obtained a-Si:H with optical band gap of less than 1.65 eV with deposition rate of 0.18 $\AA$/sec, and used this material as bottom i-layer of a-Si:H double stacked solar cells. We have succeeded in the fabrication of very stable a-Si:H double stacked solar cell of which the conversion efficiency is about 9% and the degradation is less than 4% after light illumination for 100h under 350mW/cm$^{2}$.

In order to develop pH-sensitive liposomes that are stable in plasma, liposomes containing membrane-spanning bipolar amphiphiles as protonatable components were studied. Sonicated small unilamellar liposomes composed of dioleoylphosphatidylethanol amine (DOPE), dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC) and bis(6-hemisuccinyloxyhexyl) fumarate (BHF) in a 3 : 1 : 1 molar ratio are stable at neutral pH, but destabilized at weakly acidic pH with 50% leakage of entrapped materials at about pH 5.5. The liposomes are relatively stable in plasma such that only a few percent entrapped calcein was released in 50% plasma within 1.5 h incubation at 37 ℃, while about 10% entrapped calcein was released from sonicated liposomes composed of DOPE, DOPC, and oleic acid (OA) in a 3 : 1 : 1 molar ratio under the identical conditions. The aqueous contents mixing and lipid components mixing experiments suggest that the protonation of BHF may induce fusion between the liposomes, followed by the release of the entrapped materials.

An acid-stable ${\alpha}-amylase$ produced by Aspergillus niger K-25 strain was purified by fractional precipitation with ammonium sulfate, ethacridine and acetone. The final preparation was homogeneous in cellulose acetate electrophoresis. The enzyme retained 91 % of its oringinal activity at pH 3.0, 8.7% at pH 2.4. The optimum pH of the enzyme was around pH 4. The purified-enzyme with optimum temperature of $40^{\circ}C$ was more heat-stable than the commercial product. The enzyme retained 80% of its original activity when heated to $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes while the commercial amylase lost its acitivity completely within 30 minutes at $50^{\circ}C$.

In this study, wave breakings over a shelf region are investigated under irregular wave conditions through laboratory experiments in a wave flume. Numerical simulations based on the Boussinesq-type equations are also conducted. The characteristics of breaking waves such as significant wave height, crest and trough heights, the mean water level and the stable wave height are obtained by analyzing laboratory measurements in detail. Obtained results are compared with those of the Boussinesq-type equations model. A very reasonable agreements is observed. The broken waves over a horizontal bottom asymptotically approach a stable wave height($H_{stable}$). In this study, the relative stable wave height is found as $H_{stable}/h{\fallingdotseq}0.56$ for irregular wave.

The oxidation product bis(2-oxo-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolidinyl)-5,5-disulfide (5b) was obtained from an attempted synthesis of 5-thioxo-3H,4H-1,3,4-thiadiazolidin-2-one (1). Spectroscopic results indicate that the most stable tautomeric form of 1 is the lactam-thiol form (1b). The computed total energies and relative energies at the MP4 level also showed that the most stable tautomer is 1b.

Stabilities to heat, pH, light were investigated about isolated red color pigment from the Korean Lithospermum erythrorhizon. The extracted pigment, acetylshikonin was stable heating at 40∼80$\^{C}$ for 1∼2 hours, hut it was specially unstable on the storage above 55$\^{C}$. The extracted pigment, acetylshikonin was stable on the sunlight under the red and green filters but unstable under the yellow and blue filters. The extracted pigment, acetylshikonin was stable under the pH of 4∼8 but unstable under the pH above 10. The extracted pigment, acetylshikonin was stable under the KCl and NaCl at concentration of 10$\^$-1/Mole. The pigment was very unstable under the CaCl$_2$, FeCl$_3$, CoCl$_2$, AlCl$_3$ and MnCl$_2$ at concentration of 10$\^$-1/Mole. The red pigment, acetylshikonin was stable under citric acid and acetic acid at concentration of 1 Mole. Especially, acetic acid was effective for the stability of the pigment.

In this article, we study the relations of horizontally conformal maps and harmonic morphisms with the stability of minimal fibers. Let ${\varphi}:(M^n,g){\rightarrow}(N^m,h)$ be a horizontally conformal submersion. There is a tensor T measuring minimality or totally geodesics of fibers of ${\varphi}$. We prove that if T is parallel and the horizontal distribution is integrable, then any minimal fiber of ${\varphi}$ is volume-stable. As a corollary, we obtain that any fiber of a submersive harmonic morphism whose fibers are totally geodesics and the horizontal distribution is integrable is volume-stable. As a consequence, we obtain if ${\varphi}:(M^n,g){\rightarrow}(N^2,h)$ is a submersive harmonic morphism of minimal fibers from a compact Riemannian manifold M into a surface N, T is parallel and the horizontal distribution is integrable, then ${\varphi}$ is energy-stable.

We consider an ill-posed problem for the heat equation $u_{xx}=u_t$ in the quarter plane {x > 0, t > 0}. We propose a new method to compute the heat flux $h(t)=u_x(1,t)$ from the boundary temperature g(t) = u(1, t). The operator $g{\mapsto}h=Hg$ is unbounded in $L^2({\mathbb{R}})$, so we approximate h(t) by $h_{\delta}(t)=u_x(1+{\delta},\;t)$, ${\delta}{\rightarrow}0$. When noise is present, the data is $g_{\epsilon}$ leading to a corresponding heat $h_{{\delta},{\epsilon}}$. We obtain an estimate of the error ${\parallel}h-h_{{\delta},{\epsilon}}{\parallel}$, as well as the error when $h_{{\delta},{\epsilon}}$ is approximated by the trapezoidal rule. With an a priori choice rule ${\delta}={\delta}({\epsilon})$ and ${\tau}={\tau}({\epsilon})$, the step size of the trapezoidal rule, the main theorem gives the error of the heat flux as a function of noise level ${\epsilon}$. Numerical examples show that the proposed method is effective and stable.

Lectin from mistletoe(Viscum coloratum) fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum was compared with the lectin from unfermented mistletoe. Agglunating activity of fermented mistletoe was stable at pH 3.77~8.71, at temperature range of $0~40^{\circ}C$ and in the presence of 9 mental ions, which results are similar to unfermented one, but less stable at pH 2.03~3.00 and more stable at temperature $60~80^{\circ}C$ than lectin from unfermented one. Agglunating activity of lectin from mistletoe fermented for 1 or 2 days and from fraction number 42~54 was not inhibited by all sugars used except for lectin from fraction number 21~34. Mitogenic activity to murine lymphpocytes of lectin from mistletoe was decreased by fermentation process.

The effect of temperature and pH on the degrdation of minoxidil in the aqueous solution was investigated and the stability of pharmaceutical preparation for solution was also studied. The degradation of minoxidil in the aqueous solution was first order type reaction and the rate constant at $20^{\circ}C$ in pH 7.0 phosphate buffer solution was 9.464${\times]10^{-3} day^{-1}$ and calculated activation energy was 11.7 kcal/mol. The degradation of minoxidil was acid-base catalytic reaction and the most stable range of pH was about 5.0. The liquid pharmaceutical preparation was very stable in 3 months.
