The LT-MBE (low temperature molecular beam epitaxy) allows to dope GaAs with Mn over its solubility limit. A 75 urn thick GaMnAs layers are grown on a low temperature grown LT-GaAs buffer layer at a substrate temperature of $260^{\circ}C$ by varying Mn contents ranged from 0.03 to 0.05. The typical growth rate for GaMnAs layer is fixed at 0.97 $\mu\textrm{m}$/h and the V/III ratio is varied from 25 to 34. The electrical and magnetic properties are investigated by Hall effect and superconducting quantum interference device(SQUID) measurements, respectively. Double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXRD) is also performed to investigate the crystallinity of GaMnAs layers. The $T_{c}$ of the $Ga_{l-x}$ /$Mn_{x}$ As films grown by LT-MBE are enhanced from 38 K to 65 K as x increases from 0.03 into 0.05 whereas the $T_{c}$ becomes lower to 45 K when the V/III ratio increases up to 34 at the same composition of x=0.05. This means that the ferromagnetic exchange coupling between Mn-ion and a hole is affected by the growth condition of the enhanced V/III ratio in which the excess-As and As-antisite defects may be easily incorporated into GaMnAs layer.

In this work, [$Pb(Mg_{1/2}W_{1/2})_{0.03}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_x(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.97-x}O_3-BiFeO_3$] (x=0.02 to 0.12) composition ceramics were fabricated by the conventional soild state reaction method and their microstructure and piezoelectric properties were investigated according to PNN substitution. The addition of small amount of $BiFeO_3$, $Li_2CO_3$, and $CaCO_3$ were used in order to decrease the sintering temperature of the ceramics. The XRD (x-ray diffraction patterns) of all ceramics exhibited a perovskite structure. The sinterability of PMW-PNN-PZT-BF ceramics was remarkably improved using liquid phase sintering of $CaCO_3$, $Li_2CO_3$. However, it was identified from of the X-ray diffraction patterns that the secondary phase formed in grain boundaries decreased the piezoelectric properties. According to the substitution of PNN, the crystal structure of ceramics is transformed gradually from a tetragonal to rhombohedral phase. The x=0.10 mol PNN-substituted PMW-PNN-PZT-BF ceramics sintered at $920^{\circ}C$ showed the optimum values of piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$), piezoelectric figure of merit($d_{33{\cdot}}g_{33}$), planar piezoelectric coupling coefficient($k_p$) and density : $d_{33}=566$ [pC/N], $g_{33}=29.28[10^{-3}mV/N]$, $d_{33{\cdot}}g_{33}=16.57[pm^2/N]$, $k_p=0.61$, density=7.82 [$g/cm^3$], suitable for duplex ultrasonic sensor application.

Low-temperature sintering and dielectric properties of the $1-xBiNbO_4-xZnNb_2O_6$ ceramics (x=0.3, 0.5, and 0.7) with 10 wt% zinc borosilicate (ZBS) glass was investigated as a function of the substitution of $ZnNb_2O_6$ with a view to applying this system to LTCC technology. The all composition addition of 10 wt% ZBS glass ensured a successful sintering below $900^{\circ}C$. The the amount of $ZnNb_2O_6$ on $ZnNb_2O_6$ ceramics increased the $Q{\times}f$ values, but it decreased the sinterability and dielectric constant due to the higher $Q{\times}f$ value and sintering temperature of $ZnNb_2O_6$ than that of $ZnNb_2O_6$ ceramics. The increase of $ZnNb_2O_6$ content from 0.3 to 0.7 in the $1-xBiNbO_4-xZnNb_2O_6$ ceramics with 10 wt% ZBS glass sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ demonstrated 30~20 in the dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$), 3,500~4,500 GHz in the $Q{\times}f$ value.

The potential polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA)-producing bacteria, Bacillus megaterium PP-10, was successfully isolated and studied its feasibility for utilization of pineapple peel waste (PPW) as a cheap carbon substrate. The PPW was pretreated with 1% (v/v) H₂SO₄ under steam sterilization and about 26.4 g/l of total reducing sugar (TRS) in pineapple peel hydrolysate (PPH) was generated and main fermentable sugars were glucose and fructose. A maximum cell growth and PHA concentration of 3.63 ± 0.07 g/l and 1.98 ± 0.09 g/l (about 54.58 ± 2.39%DCW) were received in only 12 h when grown in PPH. Interestingly, PHA productivity and biomass yield (Y_x/s) in PPH was about 4 times and 1.5 times higher than in glucose. To achieve the highest DCW and PHA production, the optimal culture conditions e.g. carbon to nitrogen ratios of 40 mole/mole, incubation temperature at 35℃ and shaking speed of 200 rpm were performed and a maximum DCW up to 4.24 ± 0.04 g/l and PHA concentration of 2.68 ± 0.02 g/l (61% DCW) were obtained. The produced PHA was further examined its monomer composition and found to contain only 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB). This finding corresponded with the presence of class IV PHA synthase gene. Finally, certain thermal properties of the produced PHA i.e. the melting temperature (T_m) and the glass transition temperature (T_g) were about 176℃ and -4℃, respectively whereas the M_w was about 1.07 KDa ; therefore, the newly isolated B. megaterium PP-10 is a promising bacterial candidate for the efficient conversion of low-cost PPH to PHA.

Indialite/cordierite glass-ceramics demonstrate excellent microwave dielectric properties such as a low dielectric constant of 4.7 and an extremely high quality factor Qf of more than 200 × 10³ GHz when crystallized at 1300℃/20 h, which are essential criteria for application to 5G/6G mobile communication systems. The glass-ceramics applied to dielectric resonators, low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) substrates, and direct casting glass substrates are reviewed in this paper. The glass-ceramics are fabricated by the crystallization of glass with cordierite composition melted at 1550℃. The dielectric resonators are composed of crystallized glass pellets made from glass rods cast in a graphite mold. The LTCC substrates are made from indialite glass-ceramic powder crystallized at a low temperature of 1000℃/1 h, and the direct casting glass-ceramic substrates are composed of crystallized glass plates cast on a graphite plate. All these materials exhibit excellent microwave dielectric properties.

We report improved low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) effects of the $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Mn_{1+d}O_3-Mn_3O_4$ composite films with the nominal composition of $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}MnO_3$(LSMO)-50 mol% $Mn_3O_4$. The composite films were fabricated by ex-situ solid phase crystallization (SPC) of amorphous films at the annealing temperature region of $900-1100^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in a pure oxygen atmosphere. The amorphous films were deposited on polycrystalline $BaZrO_3$ (poly-BZO) substrates by dc-magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The Curie temperatures ($T_C$) of all composite films were insignificantly altered in the range of 368-372 K. The highest LFMR value of 1.29 % in 0.5 kOe with the maximum dMR/dH value of $37.4%kOe^{-1}$ at 300 K was obtained from 900 nm-thick composite film annealed at $1100^{\circ}C$. The improved LFMR properties of the composite films are attributed to effective spin-dependent scattering at the $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Mn_{1+d}O_3$ grain boundaries sharpened by adjacent chemically compatible $Mn_3O_4$ grains.

To understand the low frequency instability(LFI) characteristics in hybrid rockets combustion, effects of equivalence ratio variations on the phase shift between pressure and heat release oscillations were investigated by using the direct numerical simulation. The change in the equivalence ratio of the main chamber was simulated by the temperature and composition variation of the combustion gas introduced into the post-combustion chamber. In the results, additional combustion appeared along with vortex generation at the backward step, and combustion pressure and heat release oscillations were observed as the vortex moved. In addition, the results confirmed that the phase difference between the pressure and heat release oscillation shifts because of the changes in the propagation velocity of pressure wave as the temperature of combustion gas changes.

The temperature dependence of dielectric constant and electrical conductivity for the BBPS glasses system was studied over a temperature range between $30^{\circ}C$ and $500^{\circ}C$ and at a frequency ranged from $10^3$ Hz to $10^7$ Hz. The dielectric constant ${\varepsilon}$ at room temperature of $xB_2O_3-yBi_2O_3-zPbO-5SiO_2 $ glasses was measured to be 15 at $10^5$ Hz for all samples and found to be almost frequency independent. At the relatively low temperature ranger (<$70^{\circ}C$), the dielectric constant was almost temperature independent and above that it increased with increasing temperature: the rate of increase being different at different frequencies. This behavior could be explained on the basis of the presence of molecular dipoles. The dielectric constant was found to depend on the composition as well as the crystalline phases formed in the glass matrix.

Mineralogical analysis with petrographic microscope and XRD was carried out to verify manufacturing technique of the tiles(9 samples) and kiln wall materials(5 samples) from the Anchang-ri history site in Wonju county. One of the results we found is such that during the tile manufacturing process fine tile fragments or wall materials might be added instead of chamottes to maintain tile pattern. Abandoned tiles or wall materials were recycled repeatedly, which may be supported by the recycled chamottes that made from iron-rich fine aggregates or disposed kiln wall materials in many samples analyzed. The tiles and wall materials are divided into 3 types, including low temperature type (below $800^{\circ}C$), intermediate temperature type ($800-930^{\circ}C$) and high temperature type ($930-1470^{\circ}C$) as a function of firing temperature which deduced by mineral assemblages identified under petrographic microscope and by XRD composition. Both Kiln A8 of Choseon Dynasty and wall material AW5 were burned at the highest temperature among the all analyzed samples.

The composition of lipid class and fatty acid of free lipids(FL) and bound lipids(BL at low temperature and BL at high temperature) from Mungbean (Phaseolus radiatus, L) was investigated with the chromatographic procedures. The contents of neutral lipid (NL), glycol lipids(GL) and phospholipids(PL) in FL were 89.1%, 7.1%, and 3.7%, on the other hand those of BL were $49{\sim}56%,\;28{\sim}29%\;and\;15{\sim}21%$, respectively. The major components of NL fraction were triglycerides, 1,2-diglycerides and esterified sterol in the lipids of FL and BL. Esteryl steryl glycosides and monogalactosyl diglycerides were observed as major GL components of FI and BL. Of the PL in FL and BL, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, diphosphatidyl glycerides and phosphatidyl choline were the major components. The predominent fatty acids of NL, GL and PL were linoleic, palmitic and linolenic acids. There are a little difference between the compositions of BL at low and high temperature extraction.
